inian sp< February 17,1999 11 Lady Cat Tennis Open 1999 Season by Daniel Hooker Sports Editor The Western Carolina Lady Cats tennis team opened their 1999 Spring semester this past weekend with a 7-2 loss at Coastal Carolina. Their second scheduled match of the season, against the Campbell Camels, was rained out last Saturday. Winning matches for the Cats were freshman Jenna Calomeris (6-0 and 6-0) in singles, and the team of Kristen Sugg and Emmy King, 8-5, in doubles. Janie Wicklund and Shelby Fitzpatrick both battled before falling in their respective matches. Head coach Fred Weinman said, "I thought we played well this past weekend. It's probably our best, first match." He added, "Right now, we are looking for our six people that are going to earn positions by match results in singles." Looking at the WCU tennis team, head coach Fred Weinman returns five players from a team last season that compiled a 5- 10 record overall, 0-7 in the Southern Conference. Two of their wins came on a trip to Hamilton, Bermuda. WCU defeated Johns Hopkins and Connecticut, both by 9-0 margins. Yet, perhaps the biggest accomplishment of last year's squad came in the Southern'Conference Tournament Spartanburg, SC. The Lady Cats defeated the Lady Mountaineers of Appalachian in the first-round of the tournament. It was the; third straight year that the Cats knocked their arch-rivals off. "Beating App is still fresh in our minds," stated Weinman behind a smile. The seniors are Kristen Sugg and Tara Livengood. & Weinman will look to these two for senior leadership. Last season, Sugg compiled a 6-8 singles record, .1-7 in the conference. Livengood went 7-8, 2-7 in the Southern Conference, as well as participating in doubles. Weinman will have three freshmen in which to base his future teams on. This first-year trio all hail from Georgia. Jenna Calomeris is from Snellville, Shelby Fitzpatrick is from Columbus, and Emmy King is from Marietta. 1998-99 Women's Golf Roster Jenna Calomeris Freshman Snellville, Ga.

Wicklund was paired up with Livengood in doubles. Together, they led the team with a 8-5 overall record, 2-5 in the conference. "The strength of our team are our four mm doubles teams," stated Weinman. "Our wins will come from these double's teams." 1999 Women's Tennis Schedule Feb. 11 at Coastal Carolina 1pm Feb 12 at Campbell 2pm Feb 24 UNC ASHEVILLE 3pm Feb. 27 WOFFORD * 1pm Mar. 5 at C. of Charleston " 11am Mar. 6 at Ga.

"These two matches (UNCA and Wofford) are important to our year. How we do in these two will dictate where we go this season." 1999 Men's Golf Roster Junior 'Golf cont. from page 10 Derrick Dehart followed Bowers with a 155, 60th. Greg Lewis and Marc Leichtnam both finished with a 160, tied for 79th. Charleston Southern's Justin Young was the medalist with a 3-under par 139, three strokes ahead of the second place finishers. Other schools in the event were Temple, Seton Hall, Old Dominion, Winthrop, Richmond, Jacksonville and The Citadel, to name a few. Looking at the 1999 Spring Catamounts, a lone senior for Coach Wike is Jason Thomas. Last season, he posted the lowest stroke average, a 75.8, in four rounds. He also posted a team-high sixth at the Charleston Southern Invitational. Junior Mike Bowers and sophomore Jason Sugg posted both placed asixteenth place showing Mike Bowers West Lawn, PA Jeff Brunnemer Elwood, Ind.

The two also finished the fall semester with stroke averages of 76.5 and 77.0, respectively. Lee Cline was the only freshman to make the cut in the qualifier rounds in the Spring. He posted 312 strokes in four rounds, an average of an even 78. Last season, in the fall, the WCU men posted a fifth place finish at Radford, and an eighth at Charleston Southern. The Cats finished tenth at the Southern Conference Championships. Before the 1999 Southern Conference Championships, in which WCU will host in Cashiers, the men's golf team will only compete in two tournament, including the one this past week. Just as this past week, the other event will also be in South Carolina. Junior Freshman Junior Junior Sophomore Freshman Freshman Cats Play Tough, But it's Not Enough vs. App Sophomore Senior Freshman by Don Costello Managing Editor The largest crowd assembled in the Ramsey Center since Bob Dole's December pilgrimage witnessed what may be a low point in Catamount basketball. After enjoying early success on Monday night, Western Carolina, fell apart quicker than a stale cookie en route to a 68-55 defeat at the hands of Appalachian State in front of 2,051 spectators. Appalachian's quickness and tenacity eventually overcame Western's youthful grit as the Cats saw a 27-12 advantage dissipate to a one-point half-time lead. The Mountaineers (18-7,12-3 SoCon) used their quickness to speed by and around WCU (6-19,2-13) defenders, a tactic that produced 28 personal fouls for the seven Cats that logged considerable minutes. In all, two Cats (Dondrell Whitmore and Joey Bryson) fouled out. Colin Kearns, Michael Plavich and Casey Rogers each had four personal fouls. Michael Green and Cory Largent had three apiece. Appalachian only had one player with more than three personals. When the Apps gained access to the charity stripe they took advantage of it, converting on 35-of-43 shots that led to more than half of ASU's total points. Feisty Appalachian guard Tyson Patterson was only 1 -for-6 from the field but made up for it with a 12-for-15 showing on the free-throw line. Lanky T 1" center Josh Grover connected on all seven of his free-throw attempts. For the Cats, freshman Cory Largent led the way with 19 points, hitting on 70 percent of his field goals and 60 percent of his 3-pointers. Michael Plavich produced 14 points in just under 40 minutes on the floor. Appalachian's win assured them of at least a tie for the Southern Conference's North division crown while Western wrapped up the bottom spot in the division. On Saturday, Western ventured to Charleston, SC, for a date with their counterparts in the SoCon's South division cellar, The Citadel. The Bulldogs played what was perhaps their most complete performance of the year against Western. The Citadel shot 54 percent from the field, 56 percent from behind the arc, and was able to hold off a second half comeback by the Cats to eventually prevail, 86-82. WCU put four players in double figures against the Bulldogs—Dondrell Whitmore 26, Casey Rogers 20, Michael Plavich 11, and Cory Largent 11—but were unable to stop The Citadel's Ryan Sears, who tallied 22 points and seven rebounds off the bench. The Cats will play their final home game of the season on Saturday when they welcome UNC Greensboro to the Ramsey roost for a 7 p.m. contest.
