The Biddies ran for 205 yards fub 2-0, ird Win year for a tryout with the At lanta Chiefs. On a formal schedule last year for the first time, the team man aged to come through the season undefeated. According to team captain Hodge things got so had that several teams opted out rath er than face the stiff competi ion which Carolina had to offer. Playing since childhood has ac counted for Hodge's leadership and competence as a soccer player. This was shown in his four goal gain in last week's game. Looking for a reason to ex plain the- success of a team is very difficult. There are so many factors to account for. The answer may lie in the fact that the team practices regularly Monday, Wednesday Friday, and Saturday from 3-6. A sense of professionalism in working on a well-put-together team which knows that the mental factor which each player brings to the game makes for a win. Although not as prevalent in the United States as in South America and the European countries, soccer nevertheless does draw a wide following. Spectators are welcome each Saturday afternoon on the Soccer field, south of Blossom where all home games are played.

Clemson should provide more competition for the Biddies if their tie against Georgia's frosh is a good example of their play. The USC frosh defense will have its hands full trying to stop the passing combo of High School All-America Ricky Gil strap from Easley to John Mc Makin from Atlanta. McMakin caught for a fan tastic 199 yards and 13 comple tions. Gilstrap passed for two TD's and a total of 203 yards.

With third down and 14 to go on the Georgia 35, Billy Parker started limbering up his leg in case the Gamecocks were forced to punt. Carolina lined up and quarter back Tommy Suggs took the hall from center Bob Mauro and everyone in the stands figured he would roll out and attempt to hit Freddy Zeigler. But Suggs handed off to War ren Muir, who made a beautiful I fake in the line and went off left I tackle to begin a 28-yard jaunt up the middle of the field. As he passed the line of scrim mage and moved his first yard into the open, he passed a mile stone in his college career. That first yard on his run put him over the 1,000 yard rushing mark for his Carolina career. Hut it was the last yard that he will remember, and remem ber painfully for a few weeks. The one Georgia man between Warren and the goal line stop)ped him, and stopped him for more than oae down.

Warren lluir Let's Jack O1 Spades By JOHN DAVID SPADE seso@asum- esess, Sports Editor "We've never had a team that played better than our team played tonight." The words of a proud but hurt Paul Dietzel after a heart breaking loss Saturday night. It has been said that nice guys finish last; it has been said many times that the Gamecocks are "too nice" to win big. For 30 minutes the Gamecocks were the Cinderella team that scored 29 points in the final quarter against UNC. The first quarter wasn't a fluke, we played better than the Georgia team that perhaps had taken the Gamecocks too lightly. 'SC was a team to be proud of. but, again in the words of Dietzel, "You can't rationalize a loss into a victory." Here I'll have to agree with our head football coach and athletic director. But there were victories, if not on the scoreboard. The Gamecocks won more than just admiration Saturday night. They won over to their side a student body that cheered like football fans and not party goers. They won the respect of one of the top teams in the country. They played their hearts out and got beat by one point. They got beat by a better team and a fantastic sophomore in Mike (avan. It hurt more to lose by one point than if we had lost by two or three touchdowns. But the Gamecocks proved they are getting better. They were a sorry team against Duke. In fact, they were not a team, and that's why they lcst. They were a sorry team for three quarters against UNC, but then they matured and worked together and won against a team that was not as good as the Gamecocks knew they were. Then they lost to a team that was supposed to blow them off the field. They didn't play above their heads, said Dietzel, "We're just a good team, and getting better." Carolina has hit the rough part of the schedule, and if the injuries keep up it could get a lot rougher. I won't talk in "ifs" about what would have happened if Warren Muir hadn't been injured or if Benny Galloway was healthy. I will talk about the fact that the rest of the tcams on our schedule won't know how good the Gamecocks are until they play us. WE'RE GETTING BETTER! joinforces * Apart we're not much.
