20 Western Carolinian February 1,1996 Sports Cats Blitz Bulldogs by Jason Queen Western Carolina's men's basketball team used a 25-4 run the first 7:30 of the second half to turn a 39-31 halftime lead into a blowout and curised to an 88-74 victory over the Citadel in front of a huge crowd Saturday night at the Ramsey Center. Guard Anquell McCollum led a balanced scoring attack that saw eight Catamounts score at least six points with 18 points. "It was a good win," an excited Coach Phil Hopkins commented after the game. "I thought our kids really played hard. We had some stretches playing defense that I couldn't have asked for harder play." McCollum, who only scored five points in the first half, nailed a three-pointer to open the second half and give the Catamounts their largest lead of the game, 42-31. Then the Cats opened the floodgates and scored 10 more unanswered points to push their lead to 52-31 with 16:32 to play. Scott Scholtz hit a layup to cap off the run and give the overflowing crowd room to make some noise. After the Citadel cut the lead to 54-35 a few moments later, the Cats exploded for another 10-0 run to take a whopping 64-35 lead at the 12:30 mark. McCollum scored 11 points during that incredible 25-4 outburst, including three three-point baskets. The Bulldogs never seriously threatened again, as they could get no closer than 11 points the rest of the way. "In the second half we got on a roll," Hopkins added. Point guard Joel Fleming continued his solid play of late. He finished with 14 points and eight assists. "He had a real good game," Hopkins said of his point guard. Fleming also grabbed four rebounds and committed only two turnovers on the night. The Catamounts' defense was the real story of the game. Western held the Bulldogs to just 36 percent shooting (28 of 78) from the field. The Cats also forced the Bulldogs into 14 turnovers. NOTES: The Cats got a solid game offensively from everyone who played. Scholtz and Kullum joined McCollum and Fleming in double figures with 10 and 14 points respectively. Scholtz completed his second career double-double with 10 rebounds. McCollum and Kullum pulled down eight boards apiece. Lady Cat Missy Broy waits for the results photo by Terry K. Roberts Lady Cats Split Pair by Jason Queen The Western Carolina Lady Cats basketball team split a pair of conference games over the weekend in the Ramsey Center. On Saturday, the Lady Cats beat UT- Chattanooga's Lady Mocs 75-57 to end a 19- game losing skid against UTC. But on Monday night, the Georgia Southern Lady Eagles topped Western 80-76 to drop the Lady Cats to 7-11 overall, 2-5 in the Southern Conference. On Saturday the Lady Cats jumped out to a 30-10 lead with 7:00 left in the first half and never looked back. The Lady Mocs could get no closer than 11 the rest of the way. Western's defense keyed the route, forcing 25 turnovers and holding UTC to just 36 percent shooting from the floor. Pam Owens paced four Lady Cats in double figures with 16 points. Amy Baker added 14 points and nailed four three-pointers. Missy Broy scored 14 and dished out 10 assists. Karen Mason chipped in 11. Georgia Southern came in ready to shoot some ball Monday night. The Lady Eagles shot a whopping 62 percent in the first half to build a 49-40 lead at the break. They then came out of the locker room and extended that lead to 18 during the first eight minutes of the second half. The Lady Cats used a 17-4 spurt to cut the lead to five with 7:00 left, but got no closer than four the rest of the way. Karen Mason pumped in 19 points and pulled down eight rebounds to pace the Lady Cats. Pam Owens scored 15 points and had 7 rebounds. Western's next game is at Appalachian State on Monday, February 5. Cats Top App by Jason Queen Western Carolina's men's basketball team jumped out to a 28-9 lead Monday night in Varsity Gym and were never seriously threatened as they cruised to a 93-83 victory over Appalachian State. Guard Anquell McCollum led the Cats with 26 points, including 18 in the first half on six three-pointers. Head Coach Phil Hopkins was quite pleased with his team's third straight blowout victory. "I'm really proud of our guys. It was a good win." Kareem Livingston hit a short jumper to cut the Cats' lead to 31-27 at the 5:01 mark of the first half. But McCollum nailed two straight three's to push the lead to 10 just 45 seconds later. "Q" hit two more before halftime to give the Cats a 50-40 lead at the break. Scott Scholtz was also a key to the big first half. He had 8 points and 4 rebounds in the half. Point guard Joel Fleming then stole the spotlight by scoring 10 of the Cat's first 16 points in the first 5:10 of the second half to extend the Catamount lead to 66-53 . Fleming's free throw with 6:56 to play gave the Cats their widest margin of the night, 81- 62. Fleming finished the night with 13 points and three steals. After a quiet second half, Scholtz ended the game with 10 points. Center Kerry Wright, who has been non-existent for the Cats all year, came up big with eight points and nine rebounds. "Kerry Wright had his best game all year," Hopkins remarked. "He made some really good moves inside. Scholtz played well early, too." Kevin Kullum added 15 points and Larry Mayo came off the bench to score 10 for the Cats. The victory improves the Cats to 3-2 in the Southern Conference, 6-10 overall. Western hosts Davidson Saturday night in the Ramsey Center. Tip-off is set for 7 p.m. Hopkins concluded his interview by saying, "I'm really hoping for a big crowd at the Ramsey Center on Saturday night."
