USC frosh quarterbeck Rob Geoia defender.ob Burn Duke's C capturing While such players as Don McCauley, Leo Hart and Tommy Suggs have been attracting most of the attention among the Atlantic Coast Conference's statistical leaders this season, one performer has been overlooked. He is Duke's versatile Wes Chesson, whose specialty is catching a football. Chesson, a highly-sought after kuarterback at Edenton, N.C., High School, has played several positions during his Duke career, but the job he has done best is being on the receiving end of teammate Hart's passes. With one game remaining, he already has tucked away just about all of the ACC single-season and career records. In the wild offensive game against USC last week, Chesson caught 10 passes for 189 yards to up his season total to 69 catches and 930 yards.

Chesson had already broken the career mark held by former South Carolina star Fred Zeigler. The only record Chesson doesn't hold is for touchdown passes. His total of nine is three short of the career record of 12 held by former Maryland star Gary Collins. The Duke star is one of three receivers who have surpassed the 500-yard mark for the year. Only one player in the ACC reached this level a year ago. South Carolina's Jimmy Mitchell jumped from fifth place to second by catching five for 81 yards last week. He now has 34 for the year and 710 yards. Virginia's Dave Sullivan is third with 514 yards. McCauley is still the league's top rusher with an average of 144.1 yard per game. The Tar Heel star, who had set a single-season rushing mark the week before, fi established the career figure on his C first carry against Clemson. He Sl now has 2,878 yards, which betters 11 the old mark of 2,695 set by Frank r( Quayle of Virginia.

North Carolina, with the league's best overall record at 7-3, also has the lead in total offense with an average of 390.7 yards per game, and Duke is second at 379.3. The Tar Heels' average is built on the ACC's top rushing figure of 266.5 yard per contest and 124.2 through the air. Duke has the league's second best passing figure at 200.5 yards per game and the third best in rushing at 178.8. The Tar Heels, who lead in six of the 10 team categories, should have somewhat of an edge since they have the best total defense record at 250.8 yards per game while Duke ranks sixth at 328.5. North Carolina's defense against the rush is one of the best in the nation.
