Sports Editor The Carolina tennis team left todlay for the ACC tourna ment, and among the netters are four graduating seniors who are going with the determination to bring home the ACC title ana leave USC something to remember them by. Th nheralded athletes came close to the title last y'ear but settling for a tie will not satisfy the team this y'ear. Stuart Reynolds, Bobby Heald, Henry Ragle and Jay Schlosser have helped Carolina compile a 58-7 overall record, and more than that, have madle tennis at Carolina a thing of the present. These four have caused tennis fans throughout the con ference to recognize Carolina as a tennis p)ower. We no longer have to take a second seat ; Carolina is tennis and tennis is Carolina. Coach Bill McClain predicts that "the matches will be tough and USC seeds will not be good, but with exceptional performance and good play out of all involved, we'll make it." One graduating team member expressed his feelings about the high team spirit. He said, "We work together, we win together, and we lose together, as a team." Carolina tennis fans (10 not realize that with these four graduating seniors we are losing, at least temp)orarily, the man who brought tennis to Carolina. Coach Bill McClain will be going to the University of Alabama to work on his doctorate degree. The man who built this winning team and their winning spirit will leave a position hard to fill. In leaving, McClain expressed his appreciation to all the many people at USC who were instrumental in making tennis a success at Caroliia. "I have enjoyed the first six years here and the watching of the tremendous growth which USC experienced during this time. I am looking forward to returning and having even better tennis teams," was McClain's departing remark. But how (10 we, the tennis fans of the Carolina Com munity say thanks to the man who gave us a tennis team and a tennis name to be proudl of? But Coach McClain will have even better teams when he returns. The recruits for next year include the number two, number four and number eight singles players in the East. Along with them come the number one doubles team in the East and the number twvo (division champion in the Florida high school competition. So tennis fans will have a team to look forward to in the future, and we will all look forward to the return of the man who carn make these champions into a winning team. In the meantime, with high hopes for the ACC tourna ment of 1969, we congratulate a winning team for the 1069 sasoan.
