during fall semester -final
examinations may be just what
USC needs to break a slump that
has seen the Gamecocks' high
national ranking endangered by
three losses in four games.
Two weeks ago, Carolina was
rocking along with a 9-0 record,
had won the championship of the
Holiday Festival in Madison
Square Garden, and had numbered
among its victims two teams
ranked in the top 10, Notre Dame
and Western Kentucky. The
Gamecocks were ranked second
themselves.
The next four games, with one
exception, have been a nightmare,
however. First, North Carolina
knocked the Gamecocks from the
unbeaten ranks with a sound 79-64
thrashing at Chapel Hill. The
Gamecocks rallied at home to beat
Temple 84-71, but then came back

to pack one point losses to
slowdowns at Maryland and
Virginia.
Maryland upset the Gamecocks
31-30 in overtime in a game in
which the Terrapins resorted to a
complete stall throughout the first
half and a general slowdown
throughout. Virginia didn't stall,
but slowed down the action to a
walk and came out with a 50-49
victory. In both cases, the
Gamecocks lost the lead in the.
dying seconds.
Following Monday night's loss at
Virginia, Carolina is off until thi
rematch with the Cavaliers
scheduled for Jan. 30 in Carolina
Coliseum. USC takes a 10-3
overall record and a 3-3 Atlantic
Coast Conference mark into the
semester break.
The slowdown tactics by op
ponents in the past two games have
not only resulted in upset wins over
the Gamecocks, they have also
played havoc with Carolina's in
dividual scoring and rebounding
averages. Two weeks ago, USC
had three players averaging above
or near 20 points per game. Now,
the Gamecocks have none with
John Roche's 19.7 the top mark.
Tom Riker is averaging 17.8 and
Tom Owens 15.8, with sophomore
Kevin Joyce scoring at a 14.2
average.
Owens, the ACC's rebounding
champion the past two years, has
seen his recovery average slump
from 16.2 per game entering the
Holiday Festival to 11.4. South
Carolina collected only three in
dividual rebounds in the slowdown
loss to Maryland and two of them
were in the overtime period.

Thursday night sporting a 5-1
season mark.
The Biddies took NGJC 98-78.
High scorer for the game was Ed
Peterson with 31 points. Following
him were Brian Winters with 19,
Marty Woolbright with 18 and Rick
Mousa with 17.
Sharpshooter Peterson still leads
the team with a 30.2 scoring mark,
but the standout play of Winters
has sparked the Biddies in their
last three outings, including an
impressive 92-71 win over The
Citadel freshmen in Charleston
Thursday. In that contest, Winters
scored 31 points, grabbed 12
rebounds and dealt out seven
assists. Peterson added 27 points.
The Biddies have now won four
straight since their last second loss

The youngster from Rockaway

his 9.0 rebound average, including
a team season high of 14 in the
narrow 90-86 comback win over
Phiblant.
Although the Biddies are being
outrebounded for the year, 49.3 to
48.0, they are scoring 90.0 points
per contest, 14.2 points more than
their opponents. Contributing to
that margin are exceptional
shooting marks of .500 from the
floor and .761 from the foul line.
The game against North
Greenville was scheduled for 7:30
p.m. and was theiddR&ies' .lasi
outing for over two weeks, due to
the University's midterm exam
break. After Thursday, their next
game is scheduled for Jan. 30o in
Carolina Coliseum against Win
ston-Salem College. Scheduled to
start .at 5:45 p.m., the game is a
preliminary to the varsity's
rematch with Virginia.
