0 Thursday, August 29 1996 Sports ®tt_e fflteBtern (HarDiinian Cross-Country Teams Expected to be Best Ever BRIAN CLARK STAFF WRITER The men's and women's cross-country teams will kick off their seasons Saturday, September 7 at the WCU Invitational. The meet starts at 10 a.m. This year's teams are expected to be the best team the Cats have ever fielded. Both teams are expected to vie for the Southern Conference title. The men's team appears to be strong in early season workouts. "Looks like we could have one of the strongest teams ever. Looks are deceiving on paper— so the people involved will have to do their job/' said head coach Danny Williamson when asked about his '96 men's team. Turner Norris, a senior from Asheville, N.C, and Brian Clark, a junior from Forest City, N.C, are the only returning Varsity lettermen. Despite only returning two lettermen, the men's team should be a serious contender. Along with Norris and Clark, sophomores Matt Lee, Jeff Howard, Jeremiah Buechner, and Brevard College transfer Bill Baldwin, will give the Cats a strong team. "These top six guys have all been running great, and are try ing freshmen that could contribute this season.

Ray Wallen, from Hendersonville, N.C, was an All-State runner his junior year of high school, but suffered a season-ending back injury his senior year. Local Smoky Mountain High standout Anthony Burdick, Lance Crayton from Gastonia, N.C, and senior Steve Moss from Cary, N.C. should add depth to the Catamounts. The women's team finished fourth in the Southern Conference meet last year, missing third place by two points, 'Looks like real .strong team. We've got trie entire team returning from last year's Southern Conference Championship and second by six. we could have a team, along with several new people that could help us," commented Williamson. The Cats should be strong, led by 1995 All- Southern Conference runners Kristen Savery and Erica Thiemann. Savery, a senior from Palm Harbor, Fla., finished fourth in the conference a year ago. She appears to be ready to lead the Lady Cats in pursuit of victory, because she has been running early season work- outs faster than last year. Another name to look for on the womens front is senior Lisa Karr. Karr has vastly improved over last year and looks to really step it up to the premier level. Juniors Maggie Donahue and Emily Redmon will also be assets to the Lady Cats. These are two tremendous 800 meter runners, who are able to translate their speed and toughness over to make for tough competitors in cross-country. Sophomores Alicia Fuduric, Anne Gardner, and Amie Hood are also competitive runners who will help make this Catamount team a force. Freshman Charlotte Robson, from Newport Richy, Fla., was an all- state 2-miler. Freshman Jenny Warford, Silver City, N.C, was the N.C. state champion in the two mile, and runner-up. in cross-country. These two freshmen along with Pembroke State transfer student April Funcer, will certainly add to the Lady Cats' depth. Western will host three meets this year, the first on Saturday September 7. Two weeks later the Cats host the Catamount Classic and on Saturday November 2, the SC Championships will be held here as well. The SC championships only come around once every ten years, so it's an opportunity not to miss. When asked about this year's schedule, Williamson said, "I like to have everyone come out, cross country is a sport that is really picking up, as far as fan support, and we feel we have a great place to view cross country. So we'd like to have all the people come out and support us." Jarrett Named Academic All-American BRIAN CLARK STAFF WRITER Catamount senior Tera Jarrett was recently named Academic All-American for tennis. Jarrett currently holds a 3.8 QPA in graphic design. This, along with her exemplary athletic achievement, won her the award. This honor is awarded' to only 42 student-athletes in the nation. To make this even more impressive, Jarrett has received this award before. She is only one of three repeat award winners in the nation. "That was the goal that I set for myself at the beginning of the year," commented Jarrett when asked about the award. "I am very honored to receive this award again, because this was something that I worked hard to achieve." "This accomplishment is a testament to Tera's work ethic," said Head Women's Tennis Coach Fred Weinman. "The award is definitely a tribute to her dedication to herself and mf^ jH :; PHOTO BY TERRY ROBERTS Two-time Academic Ail-American, Tera Jarrett. family. The achievement is even more special since this is her second straight year winning the award, which is a feat few people have ever accomplished." Jarrett is following, in many of her teammates footsteps, as this makes the team's fifth award in the last four years. Hopkins Rewarded With Contract Extension COURTESY OF SPORTS INFORMATION Western Carolina University has broken tradition in hopes of solidifying its men's basketball program. Phil Hopkins, who led WCU to its first Southern Conference basketball championship and NCAA tournament appearance last winter in his first year as a head coach, has signed a multiyear contract that could keep him with the Catamounts into the next century. Western Carolina has rarely granted multiyear contracts to its coaches, and Hopkins' deal — three years with an option to renew — is thought to be the longest ever signed by a WCU coach. Hopkins came to WCU in 1993 as an assistant to Benny Dees and was elevated to the head coaching position in May, 1995 when Dees retired. The 46- year-old Pelzer, S.C. native led the Catamounts to a 17-13 record last season — the best record by a WCU team in 12 seasons _ and the school's first Southern Conference regular season and tournament championship since joining the league in 1977. The Catamounts advanced to NCAA Division I Basketball Championship play for the first time ever where they lost a thrilling 73-71 decision to Purdue, the top seeded team in NCAA West Region, in Albuquerque. Larry Travis, WCU's Director of Athletics, says Hopkins was granted the long-term contract for "a couple of reasons." "When coaches do extraordinary things like winning conference championships and make a strong showing in NCAA postseason play, they deserve to be rewarded, and," he added, "in this day and time, all of us on the collegiate level are looking for competitive consistency and continuity in our programs and long term contracts can help to achieve that objective." Hopkins says the new con tract is important to the future success of WCU's basketball program. "I am very pleased and excited that Dr. Bardo and Mr. Travis have faith in my ability to produce a strong basketball program. I think this contract sends a signal about the direction and stability of our basketball program and those are keys in recruiting," he explained. Hopkins will have 11 lettermen, including four starters, returning from last season's team that recovered from a 3-10 start to win 14 of its last 17 games.
