Clemson here Wed Gameo BY PETE FEHELEY Sports Editor The Gamecocks rode the home run power of Hank Small and Steve King and the pitching of Earl Bass to a 5-2 win over North Carolina on Saturday at the Rex Enright Field. The victory, Carolina's 16th in a row and 29th.of the year against two defeats, bore an amazing similarity to the Gamecock victory at Chapel Hill on April 3. Once again, Small came to the plate with two men on base and his team trailing by two runs. And, as he did at North Carolina, Small crashed a three-run homer to give USC the lead, this time at 3-2. King repeated his part of the act with a solo shot to left to make it 4-2. Just as he did at Chapel Hill, Bass shut off the Tar Hell hitters once his team gained the lead. The Gamecocks scored their final run in the eighth on Jim Pankovit's single up the middle. Pankovits also made several outstanding defensive plays at third base. Bass, 8-0, allowed only four hits and walked no Tar Heel batsmen. His only trouble came in the second inning when he surrendered a two run homer to the Tar Heel's Mike Wilkerson. The Gamecock express was almost derailed by a scrappy nine 'S Women's tennis Carolina's women's tennis team came up with their sixth shut-out of the season as they beat Francis Marion College at Florence. Carolina swept the singles and doubles matches without losing a set. The number one player, Sue Stoll, was back into the singles action after a sprained ankle had benched her. Stoll defeated Francis Marion's top player, Sue Sims, 6-2, 6-2. Number two seed, Sue Smith, with a 9-2 record downed Maria Costas 6-3, 6-3. Susan Tinsley, the number three player, beat Claire Holland 6-4, 6-1. The remaining singles matches were also easy wins. Mary Moorman won 7-5, 6-1, Peggy Fowler won 6-0, 6-3, and Ann Pasky won 6-1, 6-1. The number one doubles team of Smith and Stoll downed Sims and Costas 6-2, 6-2. Tinsley and Pasky playing number two doubles beat Holland and Jeffers 7-5, 6-3. Moorman and Fowler, number three doubles, dominated Moody and Hubberd 6-0, 6-1. Coach Porter said, "The team is playing extremely well in match play which contributes to such overwhelming wins. Our record is now 9-2." Women's softball Carolina's women's softball team defeated Coker College 14-8. Pitcher Karen Pappas was credited with the win. Pappas played an excellent defensive game and hammered a home run for the Chick's. Carolina started out slowly in the first three innings. Coker had the Chick's down 4-2. and was on top defensively. The Chick's came alive in the fun-th inninga nds nesday ocks whip from St. Leo's of Florida. On Tuesday, it took a two-out, 11th inning home run by Steve Cook to get Carolina past St. Leo's, 2-1. USC managed only four hits off John Chomin, the St. Leo starter who received excellent defensive support from his teammates in the field. Carolina's Greg Ward, 8-1, also pitched a strong game as he gave up only five hits while striking out ten batters. Carolina completed the sweep of the St. Leo series with a 6-3 victory on Thursday afternoon.
