November 3,1999 SPORTS 15 Cross Country Deals with 'Off Day' in Lexington by Denise Merritt Contributing Writer North Carolina State's head cross country coach Rollie Gei- ger sums the sport up best: "Cross country is like poker. You have to be holding five good cards all the time." The WCU women's cross country team has been dealt very successful cards this season. Coming off a win at the state meet at Charlotte a week ago, it seemed like the cards would fall in place once again for the Lady Catamounts. By the end of the Southern Conference Championship, it was obvious that the cards were not in the Cats' favor. The women went to VMI having met and beaten all but one of the teams competing for the Conference title. The rolling loops of the 5-Kilometer course took the ladies to a fifth place finish. Senior Keeya McManus ran number one for Western, finishing 11th. Her time of 19:06 was just six seconds shy of making the All- Conference team. Jenny Warfford photo by Collin Webster Freshman Jessie Norman (center) finished 14th overall at the Southern Conference Cross Country Championship, just four spots out of Freshman of the Year award. was just four seconds behind her, to have an off day on a very im coming in 13th. Shawnta Person, Holly Bright, and CJ Smith rounded out the top five scoring positions, finishing 15th, 20th, and 28th, respectively. "It's unfortunate that we had portant day," said head coach Danny Williamson. "It's part of all sports and it's something we have to deal with." ETSU captured the team title, beating Furman by 23 points. App. just edged out UTC by one point to get third place. Mary Jane Harrelson of App. was the individual winner, running 17:47. The men's squad, composed of young talent, finished ninth in the team scoring. Jessie Norman placed 14th overall and was the second freshman finisher in the race. He was just short four spots of earning Freshman of the Year honors. "Jessie ran a gutsy race," said assistant coach Doug Brown. "He just got beat by more mature runners." Another freshman, Jay Canty, ran an excellent race, running people down the whole way. The loss of Caleb Bailey early in the season to a reoccurring injury hindered the men's team from reaching their full potential. Following Norman and Canty through the chute were sophomore Michael Farmer, junior Eric Jaeger, and sophomore Andy Pruett. Davidson's Brent Ferell ran the 8k course in 25:35 to obtain the individual title. Chattanooga handily won the team Championship, with Appalachian and Furman coming in second and third. Both teams will take the lessons learned from this meet to Furman on Nov. 13 for the regional meet. High Hampton Inn & Country Club INTERESTED IN EARNING $200.00 TO $400.00 or more?

Yet, after 19 games in this inaugural season, that's exactly what the Lady Catamounts have done. This past weekend, the Lady Cats ended their regular season with a pair of conference losses. Western Carolina fell to the Davidson College Lady Wildcats 6-1 Sunday, and dropped a 4-2 match to Appalachian State on the turf in Boone to end the regular season. The Lady Cats managed one goal early, but couldn't recover from an overpowering DC attack, falling 6-1 to Davidson. The Lady Wildcats went up 2-0 on WCU, scoring in the eighth and 20th minutes of play. But freshman Nardia Moore, with an assist from Kelly Barker, kept the Lady Cats close by scoring on a header, cutting the DC lead to 2-1. However, that was as close as the Lady Cats would get. Davidson outshot the Lady Cats 27- 7, and held an 8-2 advantage in corner kicks. In the losing effort, Mandi Tinsley recorded four saves. In the first-ever rivalry meeting between the Lady Cats soccer and Appalachian State, the Lady Mountaineers got the best of WCU, winning 4-2. Moore opened up the games scoring, giving the Cats an early 1-0 lead. However, a mere two minutes, eleven seconds later, the Apps tied the game up at one apiece. That was the first of three-straight goals for ASU. Western added another goal early in the second half, cutting the ASU lead to 3-2, but couldn't overcome the deficit. Appalachian outshot the Lady Cats 18- 7 on the night. Despite ending the regular season on a sour note, the WCU women's soccer team had a great inaugural season. One could tell from the boisterous crowd that was on hand for the home opener against eventual conference champion Furman that Cullowhee would welcome women's soccer. The program's first win came on the road at Troy State. There, Nardia Moore etched her name in the record book by scoring the first Lady Catamount goal ever. In addition to being nationally ranked for most of the season, she also led the Southern Conference in points per game. Another freshman, Kelly Barker, has been nationally and conference ranked in assists. In the middle of September, WCU tallied their first home win in a 3-0 shutout of Limestone.
