Sports Editor Carolina has won at least 20 games .in each of the past five basketball seasons, but this year Coach Frank McGuire is hesitant about predicting 20 wins, mostly because USC will start four sophomores when it plays Toledo Saturday night in the Coliseum. Two of last year's key players All-America guard Kevin Joyce and seven-foot Danny Traylor have graduated, leaving McGuire with a gap he must fill with sophomores. In addition, sixth man Casey Manning has Frank McGuire ...starting four sophomores. graduated, stripping the Gamecocks of some bened strength. However, the sophomores McGuire will use are hardl3 inexperienced. Two of them forward Alexander English anc guard Mike Dunleavy--wer4 starters on last year's team whict was 22-7 and made it to the NCAA Midwest Regionals. Center Bob Mathias, only 6-8 and forward Mark Greiner botl saw action as reserves last seasot ie pric ducati Iyou. Basketbati necock's C as freshmen, so they are at least i somewhat acquainted with the t college game. The other USC starter is senior guard Brian Winters, the team i captain. Winters, 6-4, can also play forward, which he did numerous times last season, but as a guard he is considered an All-America prospect. "We know that English, Winters and Dunleavy can play with anybody," McGuire said this week. "But we're in about the same I position as we were last year when we opened the season at Tennessee as far as telling how good we'll be in competition." Last year McGuire used fresh men heavily in the opening game, and apparently he'll have no reluctance to use them against Toledo on Saturday. Chuck Sherwood, 6-9, is con sidered the key freshman this year for USC. With Mathias the tallest starter, McGuire believes he may have to use Sherwood when USC runs into a team with superior height, which will probably happen quite a bit. "And if Mathias gets into foul trouble we would go to Sherwood first," McGuire said. One big man USC has but can't use is transfer Tommy Boswell, 6 9, from South Carolina State. Boswell, who scored 32 points in USC's intra-squad game Monday, is ineligible this year. However, McGuire said Boswell will help USC's other big men. "Just playing against him in practice is going to help the other ~of on Tolent hances olayers," McGuire said. "He elped Sherwood a lot already." USC's experienced reserves nclude junior guard Jimmy Walsh, guard George Felton, ophomore forward Jim Clements, unior forward Tommy Cox, and enior forward Rick Mousa. Mousa and Cox have been in ured in pre-season practices and will probably miss the Toledo iame . However, when healthy )oth will be used a lot during the ;eason. The rest of USC's reserves are reshmen. In addition to Sher Nood, forward Nate Davis is ex ected to see much action. For wards Stu Klitenic, Jack George and Ed Lynch and Herb Entz rninger add depth to the squad. This is the first time in four or [ive years that Carolina is without a big man like Traylor, Tom Owens )r Tom Riker. With the lack of height, McGuire said USC will change its style of play con siderably. "Most teams 'will have a height adivantage over us," McGuire said. "We'll probably do a lot of pressing and use zone defenses to make teams shoot from the out side." In the past McGuire has always set 20 wins as the goal of his teams, but he says, "Twenty wins is going to be tough this time without a big man and with so many young players. But I don't like to lose and we aren't conceding anything at all right now."
