dins' 110-65 loss to Florida.
Furman has been a high scor
ing team at times. Their biggest
point output was in their 100-65
romp over Wofford.
Defensively the Paladins may
use a zone press that was very ef
fective against Wofford. However,
the Cocks have had little trouble
against pressing defenses in past
games with Roche, Walsh and
Cremins bringing the ball upcourt.
Guard John Roche continues to
lead all Carolina scorers with
around 22 points per game. For
ward Tom Owens leads in the re
bounding department. He and
Wake Forest's Gilbert McGregor
are leading the ACC with about 13
rebounds per game.
The key to the Gamecocks'
success thus far has been a bal
anced well-disciplined offense
that usually has all five s'arters
scoring in double figures.
Carolina leads the ACC in team
defense, giving up only 63.6 point!
per game. Bu. the Gamecocks ar
last in team offense, scoring at
rate of 69.5 points per game.
The Cocks would appear to be
stronger than Furman, but they
will be coming off two tough con
ference games in three (lays and
may sIffer a mental letdown. Also
they may be looking forward to
the Duke game in Durham Sat
urday.

Cause Blue
By JIM HANEY
Sports Editor
Carolina's Gamecocks cut off
Duke's fast break offense here
Saturday and methodically worked
their way to a 64-57 win over the
Blue Devils.
Every time the Blue Devils
started to break downcourt they
found USC defenders, mainly Billy
Walsh, already downcourt ahead
of them. The result was that a
Duke team that averages 80 points
per game was held to only 57.
On the other end of the court,
the Cocks were using a disci
plined attack that featured all
five starters scoring in double
figures. John Roche led the way
with 18 points, followed by Tom
Owens with 13. John Ribock with
12, Bob Cremins with 11 and
Walsh with 10.
But the key to the game was
the personal foul. While Duke was
committing 20 p e r.s o n a l s the
Gamecocks commit!ed only five.
The difference amounted to a 17
point advantage f,ir Carolina. as
the Cocks dropped in 20 of 29 a'
tempts. Duke hit on three of their
five.
Using their basic two-three
zone defense, the Gamecocks
were able to keep Duke's 6-10
center Randy Denton away from
the boards most of the after
noon.
Denton managed to drag down::
13 rebonds but Owens and Ribock
claimed :11 stray shots and gen
erally kept the Blue Devils outside
the zone.
Duke's outside shooting was not
potent enough to open up the de
fense so Denton could work well
inside, although forward Rick
Katherman did pull the Bluie
Devils ahead on several occasions
with hot shooting streaks from the
right side of the basket.
Katherman was erf ect i ve
enough to cause the Carolina de
fense some concern. Early in the
second half Duke's playmaker
guard Dick DeVenzio began
working the ball between Denton
and Katherman.
If the Gamecocks came out to
stop Katherman, DeVenzio would
fire insidle to Dienton w4ho was
clear momentarily as the defense
shifted back to him from Ka-.her
man. The p)lay worked consistently
enough to keep the Riue D)evil
ahead through much of the final
half.
Coach Frank MicGuire explained
his decis on not to shift defenses
to stop the Natherman-DIenton
combination this way. "When you
play a zone defense there's always
going to b)e a main open for a
shot." But MleGuire went on to
explain that the zone reduces the
possibil ity' of the personal foul.
The difference in the number
of personal fouls per team more
than made up for Katherman
and D)enton's efforts.
Commenting on his team's- per
formance AleG(u ire praised the ef
forts of Owens, Ribock and (Crem
ins underneath the backboards,
especially C'rem ins.
"Other teams always put a big
guy on Cremins' side," he said.
"bhut he conmes down w i:h the b all

the Blue Devils' demise late in the
second half. He hit a jump shot
from the side of the foul circle to
pull the Cocks ahead 55-53 with
about six minutes left to play.
Duke then came downcourt,
Owens fouled Fred Lind, but
Lind missed the foul shot. And
who was there to latch on to the
rebound? None other than Bob
by Cremins.
After Denton had tied the score
again, Owens took charge for a
time, tapping in a Roche miss to
put the Gamecocks on top 57-55
with 5:03 left. Dave Golden fired
at the basket for Duke, missed and
Owens got the rebound.
McGuire called time out and the
partisan crowd stood to fill the
Coliseum with a roar of approval.
When play resumed Roche, sud
denly with a cold hand, missed
again, but it didn't matter since
the ever- present C:emins snatched
the rebound and put it in the
basket to build Carolina's lead to
59-55.
He then deflected a Dike pass
into the eager hands of Ribock,
and the game was over for all
practical purposes. The Cocks put
on a freeze that forced the Dukes
to foul and converted enough of
the free throws to win.
Duke's late press went for
naught as Walsh, Roche and
Cremins succeeded in bringing
the ball into the frontcourt with
out a turnover.
McGuire, in discussing the press
after the game, said, "We can han
(le a press. What we need to work
on is scoring against the press.
We should have our big men com
ing up faster and going to the
basket more."
The shooting percentages for
both teams from the floor were
almost identical. Duke hit the
basket at a 42.3 per ceftt rate.
while the Gamecocks were suc
cessful on 42.2 per cent of their
attempts. Denton led Duke with
24 points. Katherman had 12.
USC now stands 5-1 in confer
ence play and 11-3 overall. Duke
is 3-4 in the conference for a sixth
place conference standing and 8-8
overall. Carolina is in second place
in the conference behind the Uni
versity of North Carolina Tar
Heels.
Union Has
Its Own
Coliseum
Union's Regional Campus of
USC has its own "little Carolina
Coliseum" now. The building's first
event was Friday night as basket
ball teams from the Union campus
and from the Spartanburg Re
gional Campus competed.
All proceeds and contributions
from the game will go toward
Union County's efforts in behalf
of thle recently established Solomon
Blatt Scholarship Fund.
Gilbert Guinn, director of USC
at Union, said the new gymnasium
student act ivitv center is slated for
a formal dedication probably in
.\larch.
