The USC Biddies, led by im
proving Danny Traylor and high
scoring Kevin Joyce, will play N.
C. State's Wolflets with Rick Holdt
Biddie
Coach
Walsh
and their husky front line tonight
at 6:45 in Raleigh.
The game will be carried on
WUSC radio from Raleigh at 5.50.
Chris Thomas and Sal Toscano will
be the commentators.
The Wolflets, with four of their
starters standing 6-5 or more, take
a 9-3 record into the contest, while
the Biddies will try to protect their
11-2 mark.
"They are physically big," said
USC Frosh Coach Donnie Walsh,
"just like their varsity."
Holdt, who considered coming to
Carolina, leads the State Frosh in

scoring with 25.7 points per game.
He is 6-5 and teams with 6-1 Bill
Benson and his 21.3 point average,
Heuts and 6-6 Dick Curran, a 230
pound football player.
The Biddies who have run a man
to-man defense effectively in the
past several games will find it
difficult to match the Wolflets. "I
don't know what type of defense we
will use," said Walsh, "we'll
probably try a couple."
To counter State's height, USC
will start Traylor at center.
Traylor who has averaged more
than 20 rebounds per contest in his
last four games will carry an 18.7
point average into the game.
For their scoring punch, the
Biddies will rely upon Joyce and
his 25.5 scoring average. Casey
Manning, with an 18.9 average,
will be at the other forward slot.
Both Joyce and Manning have also
hit the boards well for the Frosh
with 15.6 and 12.2 rebounds per
game respectively.
The USC guards will be Jimmy
Powell, who is chipping in 15.2
points, and Jackie Brown with 7.3.
This is only the second ACC team
that the Biddies have faced this
season. Earlier they defeated the
Clemson Cubs twice.

Smothering defense
John Roche will probably encounter this same type of
tight defense against N.C. State tonight in Raleigh. Roche
scored 34 points against the Wildcats of Davidson despite
their efforts.
Roche is second
in free throw race
Gamecock All-American John Roche's sparkling per
formance at the free throw line during the last three
games has enabled the 6-3 junior to move into second place
in the ACC Free throw percentage race behind Wake
Forest's Charlie Davis.
Roche connected on 41 of 44 attempts including 34 con
secutive tries spanning the three games. He is seven
behind the ACC record for consecutive foul shots set by
Clemson's Jim Brennan.
Roche also replaced Duke's Randy Denton as the con
ference number four scorer. Roche's average increased
from 21.9 to 22.6 over the three games. UNC's Charlie Scott
continues to pace the league with a 27.0 mark. Davis is
second with a 24.1 average and N.C. State's Vann Williford
is third at 23.0.
USC's Tom Owens is ninth with a 17.1 mark and Tom
Riker is 16th with a 13.8 slate.
Owens continues to have his own way in the rebounding
battle as he outstrips second place Randy Denton by 2.9
stray shots a game. Owens' average is 15.1 compared to
Denton's 12.2. Riker is 11th with a 8.7 mark.
Rick Aydlett is fourth in field goal accuracy behind
Duke's Larry Saunders, N.C. State's Paul Coder, and
North Carolina's Dennis Wuycik. All but Sanders are
sophomores. Riker is 10th in the department and Owens
ranks 13th.

By JIM HANEY

South Carolina will attempt to
clinch at least a tie for the regular
season Atlantic Coast Conference
Title tonight when the Gamecocks
play the N. C. State Wolfpack in
Raleigh. The game will begin at 9.
The Wolfpack has lost two of its
last three games and is 18-3 on the
season. The University of North
Carolina has victimized the 'Pack
twice, and Georgia Tech upset
Norman Sloan's crew, 89-77, in the
last game of the North - South
Doubleheader in Charlotte last
weekend.
Van Williford, a 6-6 senior from
Fayetteville, N. C., is the Wolf
pack's leading scorer with a 23
point per game average. He is
followed by Paul Coder and Ed
Leftwich, both of whom have 17.7
scoring averages. Coder is 6-9 and
a sophomore. Leftwich is 6-5 and
also a sophomore.
Like all Norman Sloan-coached
teams, the Wolfpack is aggressive
and rugged. Last year State
knocked Carolina out of a share of
the ACC regular season title by
beating them, 67-64, in the last
game of the season in Raleigh.
The State starting lineup will
probably consist of Williford,
Coder, Leftwich, Al Heartley and
Rich Anheuser. Heartley, a junior
who saw action in all but two State
games last season, won the star
ting assignment from Jim Risinger
early in the season.
RESERVE DAN WELLS
Anheuser, a 6-6 senior and co
captain along with Williford,
carries a 10.1 scoring average into
tonight's game. The Wolfpack's
sixth man is 6-6, 205 Dan Wells,
whose scoring average is higher
than that of starting guard
Heartley - 8.7 to 4.5.
Defensively, Sloan likes to use
the man-to-man defense. He hasn't
used the man-to-man too
frequently in recent years because
he didn't have the material, but
this season he says he thinks he
does.
Wells has played in all but one
State game and is usually counted
on to ignite a State ralley. Sloan
uses Wells in much the same
manner Gamecock Head Coach
Frank McGuire uses Rich Aydlett.
One of the stars of State's
defense has been Coder, who held
Georgia Tech's Rick Yukus to a 9
for 25 shooting performance in the
North-South game. Yunkus still
scored 27 points against State, but

MUSCLE THE KEY
The Gamecocks will have to
outmuscle State under the boards
if they are to escape Reynolds
Coliseum without a defeat. Sloan
said in a statement Monday that
the team that got the second and
third shots would win.
He added that he felt the pattern
of officiating would be a deter

the front line that got into foul
trouble would be in trouble.
