"Right now I expect to play a little more outside, too," he said. "I really enjoy playing defense." HILTON ALSO LIKES a running game "as long as it's under con trol. A lot ot my piay depends on 1 the opponent and the situation," he said. Hilton, who averaged 22 and 20 points per season during his twoyear stay at Anderson College, was originally headed for Clemson. "Clemson wanted me to sit out a . . t Al. . .1 A II t year ana men piay iwo year?, m i said. "I couldn't figure that c*fcJ know I'm as good or bettor iSBm any of the players there." The coaches, a top schedule aad an immediate opportunity to play were most influential in HHtOM'ft decision to attend USC. "I was impressed with the people, the coaches, the good chance to nlav and the overall ^ atmosphere here at USC," Hilton said. "I feel comfortable here. I saw the Gamecocks play a lot on television last year while at Anderson."

Hilton said he hadn't set any ersonal goals for himself. "My ;oals are all team-oriented. My ;oals are to win as many games as >ossible. I'd like to go undefeated ind reach the NCAA finals." "We have a lot of talent and iepth-wise we have an advantage," he said. "I believe we'll surprise some people because no >ne really knows anything about as." HILTON BELIEVES his involvement in a summer basketball league has been very beneficial to his play. "At home (in Norfolk) we have a summer basketball league that plays over several parts of the 1 Vi?- ~ 11-. country. 11 s reauy ueeu <tu experience?very different. You learn a lot because of the good competition. Many of the pro and college players participate. J In both his high school and college careers, Hilton has never played on a loser. "I've never been on a loser. At Anderson College we won 25 and 30 games a season and in high school we averaged 23 wins per season, plus the post-season tournaments. "And we played some good competition in the state of Virginia."
