Gamecock
With 2 Gai
Carolina's Gamecocks face a two
game road series with Clemson
beginning today with only slight
hope of getting into the conference
playoffs. The series, which ends
tomorrow with a single game at
Clemson, will wind up the regular
season for both teams.
The Gamecocks, who ran up a
seven game wiming streak during
one period and then faded in the
stretch, will send Johnny Gram
ling and Otis Rawl to the mound
to attempt a Tiger-taming job.
Gramling is a rookie right
hander with a 1"0 record. He has
appeared in only three games,
winning the first over The Citadel
with a three-hitter. Since then he
was a starter against N. C. State
and pitched one inning in relief
against The Citadel Tuesday night
to save a win for Howard Tunstall.
Rawl is the ace of the staff with
i 5-1 mark and holds a four hit
lecision over Clemson. He mas
:ered the Tigers 6-4 in Columbia
?arlier in the season. He hasn't
Irawn the starting nod since May
and has appeared in only one
;ame. He allowed The Citadel only
wo hits in five innings of relief
'uesday night.
Clemson is expected to counter
