Locke-'We
held poise'
By GARY WEST
Sports Writer
Clemson's Tates Locke, as most
coaches who have ventured into
Carolina Coliseum this season, was
very impressed by the Carolina
team that has defeated his Tigers
77-64.
The youthful Locke, in his second
year of rebuilding at Clemson,
began discussing his team's
defeat, a position he has un
fortunately become accustomed to
in a year of frustrating losses
which he hopes to change in the
near future.
"We got it down to five and got
the ball into Angel (Dave) twice,
but didn't come up with anything.
The kids held their poise well
tonight. I can't fault their per
formance, frankly it was a good
performance. Just when you think
you're catching up with them, here
comes along a super player to
make a super play. Kevin Joyce
has got to be Clark Kent and Riker
(Tom) came to play in the second
half. Frank's (McGuire) got a good
ball club and I wish him well in the
playoffs."
Locke who stresses defense and
a ball control offense described
his team's performance. "I
thought we did a good job on the
boards in the second half, but our
defense was spotty at times. Mike
Browning, gentlemen, is going to
be a basketball player. He's the
only one who answered up of

fensively tonight. The key phase of
the game was when we held them
scoreless for five minutes, but we
didn't score either."
On the other side of the coin
coach Frank McGuire, ending the
regular season campaign with his
22 victories and in preparation for
the quarterfinals of the Eastern
Regionals, was once again pleased
with victory.
"We got some great play from
Tommy Riker, Bob Carver and
Rick Aydlett and it was great for
them to go out with a win on the
home floor.
"Riker missed some underneath
that he never misses, I hope that
he's saving it for Temple. I thought
that our substitutes did a good job
tonight. Casey Manning and Rick
Mousa came off the bench and
played well. Most people over
look those substitutes."

USC broke a tight 53-50 game
open with six straight points
Saturday night to defeat Clemson,
77-64, in the season's finale for both
teams.
After Danny Traylor had fouled
out with 8:25 remaining to be
played, Bobby Carver hit two shots
from the foul line and Tom Riker
scored a layup and two more from
the stripe, as the Gamecocks broke
the game open, not allowing the
Tigers to come any closer than five
points for the remainder of the
contest.
Carolina looked as if it was going
to blow Clemson off the court from
the outset, taking early leads of 19
8 and 24-12. But from the 24-12
advantage at 10:18, USC could
manage only five points in the next
five minutes, and was unable to
build up a comfortable margin.
Storming to a 50-38 lead with
about seven minutes gone in the
final half, the Gamecocks saw
their lead diminish rapidly.
Clemson outscored Carolina 12-3
from 13:19 to 8:25, primarily on the
efforts of 6-11 David Angel, who
dropped in five points during the
burst.
However, USC broke the 53-50
game open and outscored the
Tigers 24-12 down the homestretch,
sending the visitors reeling to their
second loss of the season at the
hands of the Gamecocks.
