The USC men's tennis team was
handed its third loss in 21 outings
as they were defeated 8-1 by the
University of North Carolina.
UNC, the number one team in the
ACC, and the number seven team
in the 1974 NCAA's, has a season
record of 23-1.
In singles competition, Clyde
Skaflestad posted USC's only win
against the Tar Heels, as he
downed UNC's number one seed,
Bill Brock, 6-7, 6-4, 6-3.
"Clyde played his best match of
the year," said coach Ron Smarr.
Skaflestad is 15-9 on the season.
Three other three-setters proved
to be the downfall of the
Gamecocks, as Jeff Kefalos fell to
Joe Garcia, 7-6, 1-6, 7-5.
Phil Dukes was defeated by Earl
Hassler, 6-1, 3-.6, 6-4, and
previously unbeaten Jeff Hull was
downed by June Chatman, 6-4, 3-6,
6-4. Hull's singles record is now 20
1.
"Phil had a ten day lay-off and
he was kind of stale for Sunday's
match. It hurt him," said Smarr.
"Kefalos had Garcia at match
point twice, but couldn't win," he
added.
In doubles competition, UNC's
Bill Brok and Tom Dixon defeated
Clyde Skaflestad and Andreas
Hufschmid, 6-1, 6-3.

Joe Garcia and Earl Hassler
downed USC's Jeff Kefalos and
Jeff Hull, 6-1, 7-6, and Steve Geller
and Phil Dukes were downed by
North Carolina's team of June
Chatman and Cliff Skakle, 6-4, 6-1.
"After losing five singles, the
guys were not giving it their all in
doubles. Kefalos and Hull have the
best doubles record with eighteen
wins and three losses," Smarr
said.
Geller and Dukes have a doubles
record of seventeen and two, and
Skaflestad and Hufschmid have a
record of eleven and eleven.
"This was our first loss on the
road and to the best team we have
played this year," same Smarr.
"They gave a good performance,
and with a little luck we could have
gone into the doubles, 4-2," he said.
Smarr said the team's goal is to
win the next three matches and
send the four top players to the
NCAA's, June 16-21, in Corpus
Christi, Texas. The decision on
who will go will not be made utnil
after the Davidson match.
The Gamecocks go against
Georgia Tech on Saturday and then
Georgia Southern on Sunday. This
match was rained out earlier and
rescheduled for 1:30 p.m. at the
Maxcy-Gregg courts.
Georgia Southern has an over all
record of 15-2, having lost to
Florida and Kentucky. This will be
USC's last home match.
