The baseball program has signed four high school players to national letters of intent to come to Western Carolina next year. Overall, Coach Hennon stated that the team had "four very good fall signees." He stressed their love of the game of baseball, as well as stating that they "have everything that we're looking for." First off, Rod Goldston of Ramsuer, N.C, signed to play either second base or at shortstop. In his three-year varsity career at Eastern Randolph High School, the same as current sophomore Austin Smithwick, Rod had a batting average around .360 and hit six home runs. Goldston was twice named to the All- Mid-Piedmont 3-A Conference Team and has been named to the All-Randolph County team. His high-school coach Tommy Maness referred to Rod as "one of the better defensive players up the middle." As a player, Rod has helped his Wildcat baseball teams to consecutive conference tournament championships. Last years team went 24-4, with a third place finish in the North Carolina 3-A State Playoffs. Coach Hennon feels that Goldston has a chance to be a very good second baseman. "He's an outstanding athlete and is a solid defensive second baseman," added Hennon. From New Hanover High School in Wilmington, N.C, Tim Caulder has committed to the Catamount baseball program. New Hanover has also produced other baseball players such as junior Chris Moore and freshman Jason Long. Last year, Caulder went 7-3 on the mound for his high school team. This three- year varsity team member also added a punch with the bat, sporting a .335 batting average. Tim was a part of the 1995 New Hanover team that was the North Carolina 4-A State Runner-up. He was also chosen for the East Carolina Diamondback Fall Baseball Team this past fall. Coach Hennon was excited about Caulder. "Tim knows how to pitch," commented Hennon. "He's not an overpowering guy, but he throws three quality pitches for strikes." The coaching staff believes that Caulder can be a "solid college pitcher." Tennessee has a solid representation here at Western Carolina. Three players hail from our westerly neighbor. Next season, at least one more will be added. From Dobyns-Bennett High School in Kingsport, Tenn., Josh Warner will come to pitch for the Catamounts. A Dobyns-Bennett alumnus currently here in Cullowhee is freshman Wesley Overbay. Last year, Warner went 9-1 on the hill, with a 2.33 earned run average. He recorded 98 strikeouts in 72 innings pitched. His team went 32-5, and made it into the first round of the Tennessee state playoffs. That team finished second in the final state baseball poll. In his baseball career, Warner has been named to the All-Big 8 Conference Team, the All-District Tournament Team, and the All-Upper East Tennessee team. "Josh, we feel like, has the chance to be a power pitcher," stated Hennon. "He's got a quick arm. He's a mid-'80s guy that we feel like will have a chance to throw hard." Rounding out the new signees, Danny Ryan of Fuquay-Varina, N.C, has signed on as a left-handed hitter and a right-handed pitcher/first baseman. The coaches noted that Ryan has attended a lot of the camps that have been held here in Cullowhee. Hennon said, "He's an extremely hard worker. He swings the bat really well from the left side and also pitches a little bit." Ryan will probably be used for some pitching and will see some time over at first base. Western Carolina Catamount baseball has been extremely productive and very successful in recent years. Not overlooking this season, which looks pretty good, the future of baseball here in Cullowhee appears to be in the capable hands of new recruits. Basketball Shuttle! The University Center will sponsor a shuttle service to men's and women's basketball games beginning January 10, 1998. The shuttle will run one hour before each game and will run one hour after each game. Pick up sites will be Madison residence-hall, Reynolds residence hall, Harrill/Albright residence hall parking area, Helder/Leatherwood residence hall parking area and Scott residence hall.

Men Fall to VMI, 80-78 by Don Costello Despite an early 22-9 lead, the Catamounts were unable to stop Virginia Military Insititute's potent offensive attack last Saturday in the Ramsey Center. The 80-78 loss put Western at .500 for the season and 2-3 in Southern Conference play. VMI, WCU's North Division rival, upped its conference record to 4-1. The VMI Keydets were no strangers to deficits when they rolled into Cullowhee. In four of their five wins before the Western game, VMI had conquered 15, 12, 18, and 14 point deficits to emerge victorious. When WCU jumped out to the 22-9 lead, the Keydets showed poise and continued to run their offense, and it payed off. Western's Head Coach Phil Hopkins said his players played a good game and put out a good effort. "You can't fault them for taking good shots, they just didn't fall," Hopkins commented. Western trailed 71-62 with 4:53 remaining and scored six unanswered points to pull with three, 71-68, with 3:17 on the clock. Down by five with 42 seconds left, Joel Fleming hit a three-pointer from the right wing to cut the deficit to two, 78-76. Western then called timeout to set up the defense. VMI brought the ball down the court, and Derrick Drummond thought he had blocked a three point attempt by Keydet guard Jason Bell. The referees saw it differently and called a foul on Drummond. Bell hit 2-3 free throws to make it a two possession game with 7.7 seconds remaining. It wasn't enough time for the Catamounts. The foul called on Drummond was questionable, but Hopkins made no comment towards the call. "In VMI's last two possessions, they took bad shots, that's what you can hope for," Hopkins commented. Senior forward Bobby Phillips said, concerning the call at the end, "We just have to go with it. The ref made the call, so 1 guess it was right." The Cats shot only 37 percent in the second half after a 49 percent performance in a first half that saw Western clinging to a 42-36 lead. Junior forward Dondrell Whitmore shot 5-6 from the field for 12 points in the first half along with eight rebounds. He finished with a career-high 18 points on 8-11 shooting. "This game was very important. We needed to win this one, especially at home," commented Whitmore on the loss. Bobby Phillips also posted impressive numbers with 23 points, 7-8 from the free throw line and 12 rebounds of his own. "This was a real big [game]," said Phillips. "I felt that if we could've got this game and the Greensboro game, that would've put us in a great position [in the conference] going to play App." Phillips and Whitmore also received considerable contributions from their starting counterparts as both Jarvis Graham and Joel Fleming scored in double figures. Derrick Drummond scored seven points. Perhaps the difference was play off the bench. VMI's bench players scored 18 points, while Western's bench only pitched in nine points and shot a poor 3-15. Reserve Stacy Ervin, Western's long- range bomber, connected on only one three pointer in five attempts. Brett Carey had five assists in five minutes on the floor. Lady Cats Fall to Mocs, 72-59 by Don Costello The Western Carolina women's basketball team was unable to hold on to a nine- point second-half lead last Saturday in Chattanooga en route to a come-from-behind win for Chattanooga. The Lady Catamounts were hampered by the absence of senior forward LaSha Jackson due to an ankle injury. To add foul trouble to injury, Karen Mason fouled out with only 12 minutes on the floor. Mason was able to add 13 points in her short time on the floor. Western had a 35-32 half-time lead on 47 percent shooting, but that percentage fell to 39 in the second half. The poor second- half shooting allowed Chattanooga to go on a 15-0 run that erased a 43-34 Catamount lead. Team foul trouble hampered the Lady Cats in the game as they were whistled for 23 team fouls, compared to only nine by the Lady Mocs. Chattanooga connected on 17 of 33 free throws, while Fantanarosa's squad was a mere 4-8 from the charity stripe. Sophomore Willow Russell led the Catamounts with 14 on 6-8 shooting from the floor. Russell also chipped in four rebounds. Freshman April Fleck scored only eight points, five off her season average, shooting only 25 percent from the floor. Assistant coach Jill Dunn said the Lady Cats did not look the same as they had in the three previous games that saw them defeat Wofford and ETSU and narrowly lost to Davidson. The loss dropped WCU to 4-11 overall and 2-4 in Southern Conference play. The Cats are tied for eighth place with Appalachian State and 1.5 games ahead of cellar- dweller Wofford.
