year for a tryout with the At

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.

to a convincing 24-13 %in over
the Bullpups.
USC used three quarterbacks
who completed 13 of 23 passes
in the win.
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

McMakin caught for a fan

quarter.
Clemson never lost its poise an<'

Warren Muir ran for 5o yards
in less than a half Saturday night
and then tragedy struck.
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 got up in pain, the pain
of a bad bruise and a hip pointer,

"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!
