Eiuuie r ucus, a m:iuui
striker for USC's soccer
team starts most games on
the bench. That doesn't
bother him however,
because as Carolina's 412th
man' he usually sees a
considerable amount of
playing time. Fuchs' main
role to date has abeen to
supply instant offense for the
Gamecocks, and he's done
that job fairly well, with two
goals and one assist in the
team's first three games.
"Eddie is a goal scorer,"
USC soccer coach Mark
Berson said. "That's the
thing he does best. He's an
insnirational Dlaver.
"Eddie is not the kind of
player that's going to go for
the full ninety minutes. So
we use him for a spark. It
might be at the beginning of
the game, it might be at the
low point of the game. If he

Fuchs has been playing
soccer since he was five
years old, and hopes to keep
playing, either in the pro or
amateur ranks, after this
season.
"I just can't see not
playing anymore after this
year," Fuchs said. I really
want to graduate and there
are always amateur teams
to play for. I was drafted by
Charlotte of the ASL, which
isn't as good as the NASL,
but it's something to keep
playing and get paid for
doing it. If I could play
soccer and graduate, that
would be excellent.'
