The Jetsons, composed mainly of Carolina Softball players, broke open a tight game with a fast break attack to take a 24-17 halftime lead. The Jetsons scored the first two baskets of the second half to extend their lead to 11 points and an ? --r peared on their way to an easy win. But the Lady Wart Lips employed a tough person to person defense that forced turnovers and cut the margin to one point. The LWL's had a chance to win the game with less than ten seconds remaining, but two close in shots rolled off the rim to seal the championship for the Jetsons.

Sixteen of USC's players are Georgia natives. A win over the Dogs always makes it easier to return home for the holidays. Seven of Georgian's players, including four starters, are from South Carolina. The game is also a very emotional one for USC assistant coach and former Georgia quarterback Ray Goff. Since Goff joined the USC staff in 1978, the Gamecocks are 2-0 against the Dogs. But perhaps the game means the most to the fans. As USC Head Coach Jim Carlen said at his weekly press luncheon Monday, "The Georgia game is a big game because we have to live with Georgia. We don't have to live with Southern Cal or Michigan just like Wichita State doesn't have to live with us." Likewise, the Gamecock fans have to live with those diehard Georgia fans. Georgian fans are the ones that are alwavs 0r>inU nrnnnH r :i:? < "> 0 a M.uu..u jv>Luuiiii^ tiidL ictiiuiiai cry ?i now 'bout them Dogs?" For any Gamecock fan who has ever run into an obsessed Georgia fan, I'm sure he or she realizes how sweet a win over the Dogs can be. After your favortie team beats Georgia, you can really punish that die-hard Georgia fan by sarcastically asking him "how 'bout them Dogs?" NO LACK OF EFFORT With only three players returning from last year's squad, the USC men's basketball team could be in for a long season in 1980-81. But while the Gamecocks may be lacking in experience, there will definitley be no lack of effort from Coach Bill Foster's first Carolina team. The diligent efforts of Coach Foster and his staff symbloize the kind of determination that is characteristic of the Carolina team these days. Obviously someone forgot to tell Coach Foster that Rome wasn't built in a day because ever since he signed his contract with USC, he has been working like a mad man trying to rebuild the USC basketball program. One area which concerns Foster greatlv is stnHpnt support. The veteran coach realizes the important role which student support can play in a basketball program. He frequently mentions how the students at Duke were responsible for making Cameron Indoor Stadium (Duke's home arena) one of the toughest places in the country to play. Foster would like to creatt ..:e same enthusiastic atmosphere at Carolina. He is doing his part to solicit student support. He purchased a TV. with his own money, to be given to the student who comes up with the best a name for a special student cheering section. He is speaking all over campus trying to askethall t\t\o terson tallied the same playoffs.
