Depth BY JOHN LOTTICH Trying to improve on USC's best won-lost record in 14 years an( its first winning season since 1952, will be the task confronting Gamecock baseball coach Bob Reising as he begins his second i year of masterminding Carolina's baseball fortunes. The Gamecocks were 15-12 last season and the youngish, be spectacled Reising feels they should do at least as well this time around, though he is not thoroughly in agreement with North Carolina mentor Walter Rabb that USC and Maryland will be the two top teams in the league. Reising fails to agree and says, "We're not yet a champion ship ball club." But the combination coach-pro fessor adds, "We have greater depth than last year," and pro ceeds to point out a vast assort ment of talent. "We have a potentially excel lent offensive outfield," he re marks. Seven boys, including four letteirmen, ire competing for the outfield positions. elading the list is stocky Dick Moseley, whe was named to the All-ACC I second team last year as a catcher. Joining tri-captain Moseley in the outfield will be Bill LaMotte, another letterman, and two other holdovers from the 1964 team, I)unnie Dunlap and Al Barnett. Dunlap is a fine defensive out fielder and Reising calls him, "as strong as anyone you've ever seen. le also has excellent speed and a strong throwing arm." These four will be bolstered hv Howie Brotherton, Wayne Wells aind. Mac 'erry. Brotherton was originally a catcher but has been doing well in the outfield; and Perry also plays first base. The Brotherton switch was but one of many that coach Reising has made.

Cham bliss, according to Coach Reising, s an excellent hitter and a fast earner who will soon be pushing the defensively strong Corley. The leading candidate for the shortstop slot is Donnie Myers, who also plays first. "It's a strange combination," says Reis ing, "but Donnie has come along very well and is an excellent glove man at first." Along with Myers at short will be Otto Tufenkjian, who is also a leading contender at second and third bases, and Dave Murrell. Tonelli, at second, will have hell) from Tufenkjian and Ed Bond, who has been severely ham pered by injuries. At first base, Lamb is the top contender, but Myers and Perry enn play the position too. "We have excellent catching," comments Reising. "I'm very pleased with it." Reising has out fielders Brotherton and Moseley who can man the position if needed, plus Bobby Northcutt, a letterman, and newcomer Dan Scarpa to give him the tremen dous depth behind the plate. On the mound, the Gamecocks will also be deep. Four lettermen, led by the last tri-captain Rick Grich, 3-0 last year, and Lovelard McMichael, 7-3 last time around, return to bolster the USC pitch ing corps.

Of the others, Steve Ravan did not permit a run scored last year and Tack Pittman and Rick Farrell have both been throwing well of late. Reising in concluding stateg that, "this is potentially a betteT club than last year's, but we havc inexperience in the new positions due to the switching."

We haven't missed a day of work except Sundays. It's a mat ter of hard work concerning con ditioning, fundamentals, and de l tails." Reising goes on to point out one big advantage that this season's club has over the 1964 team. "The boys know me and I know them better than I did last year. There is better rapport be tween us." Put in a nutshell, look for the 1965 baseball Gamecocks to im prove and present big trouble for the teams on their schedule. rmBreaks C Record SWIMMER Jeff Kincaid set four ! ?.chool recor6 as a fro4h this year. other.
