Totally Biased Catamount Coverage October 31, 2001 Catamounts Win Third Straight Over VMI, 44-17 Western Scores 27 Unanswered Points in Second Half By Cory Habicht Sports Editor Sophomore tailback Fred Boateng rushed for 152 yards and Cat defenders allowed only 119 total yards as WCU (5-3, 4-2) rolled over the Virginia Military Institute 44-17 Saturday afternoon at E.J. Whitmire Stadium/ Bob Waters Field. The victory keeps Western tied with Appalachian State in the conference Photo by Mark Haskett / OPI Sophomore tailback Fred Boateng explodes through a hole Saturday against VMI. Boateng ended the day with after the Mountaineers beat Chattanooga in weekend play. At the onset, Western set the tone of the contest by building a 14-point lead within six minutes of the game's opening kickoff. On their opening drive, the Catamounts drove 65 yards on seven plays as sophomore quarterback Brian Gaither rushed the ball in from a yard away to score the game's first touchdown. Western then managed to take advantage of a VMI mistake for their second score. On fourth down of their opening drive, VMI punter Brent Barth could not handle a snap, and WCU took over on the VMI 16-yard line. Five plays later, Fred Boateng scored one of his three rushing touchdowns, this effort from three yards away. As the opening quarter wound down, the Cats began a series of miscues that would allow the Keydets to get back in the game. First, Fred Boateng fumbled the ball deep in Western territory and VMI recovered on the WCU 17-yard line. Though the Catamount defense allowed only two yards on three plays, kicker Matt Sharpe fired home a 32- yard field goal to put the Keydets on the board. After forcing VMI to punt on their next possession, junior flanker Michael Banks fumbled the punt return, giving the ball to the Keydets on the Western 35-yard line. Two plays later, VMI scored their only offensive touchdown of the game as Joey Gibson hit Pedro Garcia for a 23-yard scoring strike. The Keydets would then take their only lead of the game at 17-14 when junior split end Brendan Roy fumbled and the VMI outside linebacker Derik Screen took the loose ball in from two see Cats Win Third Straight continued on page 15 Lady Cat Netters Take Two In Conference Action By Cory Habicht Sports Editor The Western Carolina volleyball squad beat Chattanooga and Georgia Southern in the Ramsey Center over the weekend.

The Lady Catamounts fell behind 12-6 in the second game before evening the score at 17 and eventually winning 30-23. The final game once again began with the Lady Mocs taking an early lead.
