TOUCHDOWN
DeLuca Is Named
Player of Week
South Carolina's tackle Sam
DeLuca, who earned the respect
of Maryland's Mike Sandusky
as the best blocker he's faced,
has been named Atlantic Coast
Conference Player of the Week
by the Charlotte Observer.
The newspaper, which chooses
the outstanding ACC performer
each week, noted that it "was
a solid smash from Sam's shoul
der pad," which cleared San
dusky out of the way for full
back Don Johnson to score the
Gamecock's first touchdown. A
battle raged all afternoon be
tween the two tackles, who are
considered by many as being
the finest tackles in the con
ference.

The rule was adopted by base

requiring 400 official times at bat
