win fourth

The Carolina Rugby Club in
creased their winning streak at
home to 18 games coming from
behind to defeat North Carolina 9-6
with only five minutes left in the
game.
Carolina jumped out to a quick
lead in the first half as Dr. Frank
Walton booted a 30-yard penalty
kick to make the score 3-0.
Halfway through the first half,
one of Carolina's three player
coaches was put out of the game.
Dr. Jim Wynn came out of the
game with a five-stitch cut over the
eye. The rest of the game Carolina
played a man down, as there is no
substitution in Rugby.
Walton, one of the player
coaches, said of the loss of Wynn,
"Jim is the stabelizing influence of
the team and it hurt us when he
was put out of the game. When you
lose one of your main halfbacks it
hurts your rhythmn and ball
handling."
Carolina held on, even though
North Carolina had the man ad
vantage, as they maintained their
lead at the half.
North Carolina took the lead with
ten minutes gone in the second
half. The momentum now was

wrong side of a wide-open Mike
Haggard.
Any hopes of a Carolina victory
that the 14-8 scoreboard tally may
have given USC fans were soon
crushed as Hitchens and company
marched downfield in just four
minutes to close out the game's
scoring.
Hitchens, who gained 61 yards on
eight straight carries in the drive,
was denied his third touchdown of
the affair only because he
sustained an injury on the Carolina
eight yard line. Dean Harmony
subbed for Hitchens and imitated
the back's ability to get into the end
zone as he slashed in from four
yards out.
All in all, the Ilitchen's-led
Redskins consistently pushed the
USC defense up and down the field,
while USC's offense failed to mount

Carolina's cross-country team
defeated Clemson, 26-29, Saturday,
despite an injury to Jim Schaper,
their top runner.
Schaper was leading the race
when he turned his ankle on a sofI
spot on Clemson's five mile, 800
yard course. He limped in to finisl
second, ending his three-meel
undefeated streak.
"We don't think it is broken,'
USC coach Bill McClure said of
Schaper's injury. "We're going tc
have X-rays taken Monday and
we'll know for sure."

any drives and could not convert on
any quick scoring opportunities
that may have developed.
"It's difficult to prepare for a
team like Miami," said USC coach
Paul Dietzel. "There's no common
ground to work with, and it's hard
to convince your team that they
are for real. The fact that they've
played out of their league for one
big game every year and beat
them doesn't convince anyone.
"Maybe it's because we had nc
common foes to work with,
commented Dietzel.
This coming week, USC will
meet an opponent who has shared
common opponents for years wher
they face the Wolfpack of North
Carolina State. If common foes are
the criteria for game preparation,
then there will be no excuses this
week, but it's hard to say that thc
outcome will be any different.
