"We played a good ball game but
they made all the good plays," said

very well."

hit by Citadel pitcher Chris Davis
and then scored the first run when
the next three batters walked.
lung, Keatiey, Van Bever all had
hits with Van Bever's getting a
three run double. Davis was then
replaced, and the Citadel used five
pitchers during the game.
USC added two runs in the fourth
inning when Jim Fleming walked,
Grantz reached first on an error,
and then King hit a two run double
to make it 7-1. Keatley then walked

The Gamecocks added runs in
each of the next two innings plus
two runs in the bottom of the eighth
to finish their scoring.
"Their freshman pitcher (Chris
Davis) was nervous and gave up
five quick runs," Richardson said.
"I think we played better against
Newberry even though we did lose,
but we also had a good game
tonight. We seem to hit the ball
better at night."
Tim Lewis, now 6-2, got the
victory for Carolina.
USC plays North Carolina today

ranking, especially if they win their next seven matches.
"WE PLAY almost all the tough teams on the East Coast, and
I consider our program to be the best in the East," Hufschmid
saia. i ne tougner tne teams are the better we get, and this has
improved our program greatly."
"We definitely deserve a top 20 ranking. We beat some
good teams and a ranking is well deserved," Kefalos said.
When Smarr came to Carolina in 1972 from Wingate Junior
College, where he won back-to-back national junior college
championships, he inherited a team with an 8-11 record the year
before. Since then the Gamecocks have compiled records of 224,
26-3, 25-9 and 24-3, and this year's team could possibly win 31
matches.
"The first two years we did well with what we had, but I think
every year we've gotten better because the schedule gets
oeiter, ' smarr said. "We are possibly in our best recruiting
year ever, but replacing players such as Jeff Kefalos will be
tough."
KEFALOS ATTRIBUTES the success of the Carolina tennis
program to Smarr. "Smarr is the man who has done
everything," he said. "He makes the schedule and recruits the
players, and this is what makes a good oroeram."
"We have established a tradition in the last five years, and
this is what attracts good players," Kefalos said. "Each year
the schedule gets more difficult, and each year we have to
improve."
The outcome of the next seven matches will determine if
Carolina receives a top 20 ranking, and Smarr summed it
up best when he said, 44We have the winning attitude, and as
long as you have that you don't have much chance of losing."
