Men's golf team
By Brad Cunningham
With six returning regulars from last
year's squad, Coach Bobby Foster is looking
lorward to a good year for USC's men's golf
team.
"I'm confident with the players we've
got," Foster said. "Our biggest asset is that
we have so many returning regulars with
experience and dedication. They practice
hard and intelligently."
Returning are seniors George MacDonald

LSU's football program traditionally has
good quarterbacks like Bert Jones and
Tommy Casanova. Once again the Tigers
will field an exceptional quarterback in
Alan Eisher.
Last year, as a junior, Risher had a 63
percent pass completion average, second
nationally only to Brigham Young's Jim
McMahon. This year Risher is throwing 60.2
percent.

Tailbacks Dalton Milliard (452 yards) and
Garry James (268 yards) support Risher.
According to USC Head Football Coach
Richard Bell, both utilize the sweep effectively
and receive good blocking from
fullback Michael Montz.
Bell said Malcom Scott "is probably the
best tight end we will see this year. He
combines speed with the toughness of an
end." Scott has caught 10 passes for a total
of 72 yards. Split end Eric Martin, one of
Risher's favorite targets, has grabbed 22
passes for 407 yards.
The Tigers have opted for a new offense
after last season's 3-7-1 record. The "I"
formation has been exchanged for the
"veer" offense.
"I have a lot of respect for (LSU Head
Football Coach) Jerry Stovell. He has really
brought his team around," Bell said.
The Gamecocks will meet an experienced
Tiger defense. Seven starting seniors account
for half of the team's total tackles.

Nose guard Ramsey Dardar has sacked 11
quarterbacks this season. The three
defenders create a solid wall, which the
Gamecock rush will have to break through.
"They will not be a team that's hard to
find out there," Bell said.
Senior Gordon Beckham returns as
starting quarterback for USC this week.
