the Gamecocks height advantage
by pulling the big men outside. The
strategy failed.
Coach Frank McGuire explained
the failure of the spread out of.
fense; "Our big men are ex
tremely quick and move very well
for their size. We have no fear of
playing our big men outside."
Tom Owens, who had enjoyed a
tremendous game, offered further
comment on the slowdown. "We
have proven we cannot be beaten
in a slowdown game," he said.
Coach Jack McCloskey gave his
charges the word to run during the
second half and Owens-Roche and
Co. blew the Deac's off the floor.
Owens pulled in 18 rebounds, 11
in the second half, to give the
'Cocks dominance on the back
boards. Owen's total was only one
shy of the entire Wake team.
Owens offered further proof that
he is the top big man in the ACC.
The anticipated battle between
him and Gil MacGregor never
developed. Owens topped C.e
shorter but heavier Deacon star
and won the battle hands down.
John Roche shared scoring
honors with Owens, each tossing in
24 points. Tom Riker scored 18
points and assisted Owens on the
boards with 7 recoveries.
Bobby Cremins accounted for 13
points and turned in a credible job
of 4efense against Wake All
America candidate Charlie Davis.
Davis managed 22 points, in
cluding 6 for 6 from the foul line.
The win was the 17th straight win
for USC and brings the Gamecocks
overall record to 18-1. USC stands
alone at the top of the ACC with a 9

Bobby Crem ins is a fighting Gamecock In every sense of
the word. Cremins has earned the nickname "Mr. Hustle"
through hard work and desire.
Bones McKinney, former commentator on the ACC
game of the week, paid Cremins' hustle and desire a
compliment over regional TV. McKinney said,
"Everything that hits the floor Bobby Cremins comes up
with."
The 6-2 Cremins started as a forward his sophomore
year. He responded with a 9.1 scoring average and a 7.1
rebound mark.
The Soph matured quickly and the completion was
evident in Chapel Hill against second-ranked UNC.
Cremins scored 23 points and in the final minute sank six
pressure-packed free throws, all in one-and-one situations,
and the Gamecocks upset the Tar Heels, 87-86. Thousands
of frantic fans met "Bobby and the Four Horseman" at the
airport.
The victory followed an upset over nationally ranked
Duke, but a late game lost to N.C. State possibly kept the
'Cocks out of the Top Ten.
At the beginning of the 1968-69 season Cremins was the
only veteran returning. The four sophs who joined the first
team looked to him for leadership. He responded and was
named their captain. His leadership ability helped the
young team over some rough spots and was a definite
factor in the fine season the "Super Sophs plus One" en
joyed.
Cremins once again was at his best in the clutch. He was
named the ACC Player of the Week for his performance in
the second half of the game against Duke when he rescued
the Gamecocks for a win.
With Roche and Owens in the lineup Cremins' scoring
average dipped to 6.9 but he still managed to increase his
rebounding average to 8.2.
Cremins moved to the backcourt at the start of this
season to make room for 6-10 Tom Riker. The move took
advantage of Crem ins' passing ability, but his rebounding
average is lower than it was when he was in the forecourt.
He still claims almost six stray shots a game, unusually
high for a guard.
"Bobby has been an unsung hero for us all year," All
America John Roche said, "his defense has been a big
factor in our wins this season."
Bobby Crem ins is not a big scorer. He will probably not
make first team AII-ACC, maybe not even second team. He
is, however, as valuable a player as there is in in the
nation.
