The win was Carolina's 34th straight victory at. home and raised its season record to 16-3. The Gamecocks were led by Captain Brian Winters' 22 points, followed by Alex English and Mike Dunleavy, with 19 and 18 points respectively. Twice during the contest the hot shooting Flyers caie within 2 points of bringing USC out of its zone defense. Dayton shot 57.6 per cent in the first half and unofficial statistics showed that it made 17 of its first 22 shots, most from the outside, for a blistering 77.3 per cent U SC Assistant Coach Don Walsh, runiing the team for the fourth straight game, contemplated switching to a man-to-man defense when Dayton had the ball and was leading by 5 points with six and one-half minutes left in the first half. After the game Walsh com mented, "in the back of my mind I thought about coming out of the PE -$513.00 -$411.36 :tee's 285.00 m Columbia and flies rhree weeks later on [umbia.

If they had sunk their shot (which would have raised the Dayton lead to seven) we would have come out, but we got the ball and scored. We felt that the zone was the best defense against this team, but we can play a man-to man just as well." Winters, who tied Flyer Mike Sylvester as the game's leading scorer, had more to say. "In our zone we preferred some players to take the shots rather than others, like Sylvester," Winters said. "If they had sunk those shots, we would have had to go to something thing else. But they didn't." Dayton could not keep up the same hot shooting in the second half, and shot 40.6 per cent. Behind by only one point at the half, the Flyers saw the deficit grow to 11 before putting together their last try at a rally. Dayton pulled within 5 points with 4:41 left in the game, and, according to Walsh, had the Carolina lead dipped any lower, USC would have left the zone. However, Carolina put in 8 straight points and the lead was never again in jeopardy. Dayton coach Don Doroher had praise for Carolina after the game.

They played better on both ends of the court in the second half. "Their zone kept us outside and kept them out of foul trouble," Donoher said. "I guess that's the psychology of their zone. They figured we couldn't keep shooting like we were in the first half, and we didn't." int Ads Work! ndependent Evangelistic I gelical Church lock north of Capstone services 11 a.m. & 7:15 p.m. I ng 7:15 p.m. n.
