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.
Other changes have Dave Cor

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,

"The boys have been working
pretty hard, and I'm pleased with
that. 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.
