i man Sports j October 7,1998 i 11 Volleyball Beats Bulldogs; Splits Weekend Georgia Southern, College of Charleston and App. Coming to Cullowhee WCU Sports Information Western Carolina volleyball played one match in near flawless fashion and one almost in its mirror image this afternoon at Reid Gymnasium. The Cats opened the day's play with a 3-0(15-2,15-5,15-1) victory over The Citadel and capped of the afternoon's action with a3-l (16-14,1-15,15-10,15-7) defeat at the hands of Jacksonville State. Between the' two matches, Jacksonville State defeated The Citadel 3-0 (15-2,15-1, 15-3). In only its first year of competition the Bulldogs of The Citadel struggled to keep up with the more experienced Catamounts. The overall matched proved to be a learning experience for both teams, however, as all five Catamount freshman saw considerable action. Bulldog setter Ryan Silver paced the team in offense with four of the team's eight kills in the match. No Catamount posted double-figures in offense, but the attack was relentless and accurate. The team posted a season-high .407 attack percentage, including two players tal lying five or more kills and a perfect percentage. Junior Jessi Fick (New Bern, N.C.) was five for five and freshman Ashley Minton went nine for nine. Freshman Jamie Flack (Union Mill, N.C.) led the team's defense with six digs. Senior middle blocker Keeya McManus (Charlotte, N.C.) served a career-high four aces. In the second match of the day, The Citadel faced an lineup even bigger than Western Carolina's as Jacksonville State boasts seven players 5' 10" or taller. The Bulldogs put up a good fight in this match, extending a number of rallies, but could only post nine kills in the match. The day's final match pitted what appeared to be two evenly matched teams. The Lady Gamecocks drew first blood as they opened a 5-0 lead on the Catamounts in game one. The Cats battled back to tie the game at 13 on a serve ace from freshman Christy Attebery. A solo block from JSU's Jenni Williamson gave the Lady Gamecocks game point, but the Cats sided out on a kill by HIGH HAMPTON INN & COUNTRY CLUB ate \ ^OW HIRING FOR 1998 SEASON.

Senior Elizabeth Smith served to even the game again at 14. JSU got a chance at a second match point after Attebery's attacking error. Western garnered another sideout, but JSU's Heather Beers tallied a solo kill on the team's next possession to stall the Catamount comeback. Game two was a complete turnaround as the Catamounts rattled off the first seven points on Fick's serve, a streak that included an ace and three kills from Sweeney. The Lady Gamecocks would score their only point at 9-1. The Cats opened game three just as strongly, opening a 5-2 lead on an ace from Sweeney, three JSU attacking errors and an assisted block from junior Ramsey Herron (Greensboro, N.C.) and Poff. Three straight attacking errors put the Lady Gamecocks back in the lead, though. Points came quickly for both teams after that and the Cats tied the game at 10. The Catamounts seemed to fall apart in game four as the team put up a .000 attack percentage. In a game where JSU posted only 13 kills, Western Carolina could not capitalize on opportunities. The Cats got as close a 10-7, but would not score again and JSU's pair of setters, Williamson and Beers led the Lady Gamecocks to victory. In the final match, Sweeney led the Catamounts with a double-double, 16 kills and 14 digs. Attebery was also in double-figures on offense with 11 kills. Senior Elizabeth Smith posted 13 digs for the Cats while Fick dished out 32 assists. For the Lady Gamecocks, Reaves led the way on offense with 11 kills and Linder tallied 10. Defensively, Kelby Rumph posted 12 digs while Williamson and Beers had 11 and 10 respectively. Williamson also had 25 assists. The Catamounts return to action on Friday, October 9, when they host Georgia Southern at 7:00. Saturday, the College of Charleston pays a visit to Reid Gym for a 2 p.m. contest before the football game. Monday, the bitter rivalry between the Cats and Appalachian State resumes when the Mountaineers come calling for a 7 p.m. meeting. Cullowhee to Kill Devil Hills by Daniel Hooker Sports Editor This past weekend over the appreciated fall break, I joined the mass exodus leaving Cullowhee heading for home. This particular trip would take me past my home just south of Greensboro in Liberty, to the coast of North Carolina. Many people talk of going "from Manteo to Murphy" when they talk about going east to west across the state ... However, my case here would be more like, "from Cullowhee to Kill Devil Hills." Destination - FISHING! On this trip, where my in tentions were to simply sit out on our boat and fish, I discovered several things. First of all, I experienced something that I already knew - North Carolina is a pretty wide state driving west to east. It took me about four hours to go to my home in the middle part of the state, and then about five and a half hours to get to the coast. All in all, it was almost 10 hours to get to my fishing haven. The second thing that I realized on this excursion was that North Carolina is a pretty scenic place. I experienced the majestic mountains, with signs of early foliage changes, to the rolling hills of the central NC Piedmont. Finally, I witnessed the wildlife and scenery of the wetlands and the coastal waters. Aside from the many varieties of fish we caught, ranging from puppy drum, flounder, black sea bass, and blue fish, I saw a lot of other NC wildlife. Driving through the Alligator River Wildlife Refuge, we saw a black bear cub (which didn't find its way to Chicago in time for the Braves-Cubs game, but must have made it by Sunday as the Chicago Bears FINALLY won a game) and several species of aquatic birds. Out in the Albemarle and Roanoke Sounds, we saw a school of porpoises jumping and playing beside our boat. It was almost like watching "Wild America" in person! As I sat out on our boat, rocking in the waves, fishing rod in hand, listening to the race broadcast originating from Charlotte, North Carolina (which was NOT won by Jeff Gordon, thank goodness), I pondered over the events of the weekend. The conclusion I reached was simply this: There's no place on earth that I'd rather be, than right here, in the state of NC. *This column is dedicated to a near and dear friend of mine, from Naples, Florida, Dustin Beard.
