Women's tenni | sixth place in | By Kevin Sullivan 1 USC's women's tennis (Mm nlavpH hnst fn the Carolina Fall Classic this weekend, with 1 Southern Methodist clinching the title yesterday with a 9-0 victory over Duke. USC finished sixth out of eight teams. ; The tournament began on Friday with USC falling to Wisconsin 7-2. In other matches Duke defeated Clemson 5-4, Southern Methodist downed North Carolina 8-1 and South Florida beat Indiana 6-3. USC WOMEN'S head tennis coach Arlo Elkins said the Carolina Fall Classic was a good chance to see some of the leading collece fennis teams in thp rnnntrv "There are a lot of good teams represented here, a few in the top 10 in the nation, and it's a good opportunity for students at USC and people of Columbia to see some fine tennis action," Elkins said. The matches were played at four different sites during the tournament, which lasted from Friday to Sunday. Matches were held at Maxcy-Gregg tennis courts, the Solomon Blatt Physical Educa tion Center, the Sam Daniel tennis stadium at the spring sports complex and at the Columbia Tennis Center. "I DON'T think that being the host put any extra pressure on us," Elkins said. "It has nothing to do with nerves; it's guts that matters." On Saturday at the Sam Daniel courts, USC squeaked by North Carolina 5-4. The victory enabled USC to play Clemson for fifth place in the tournament. i \s e t lO/" c rvcy viliui ics iui kjok~. iciiuc iiuin ^uiis Volleyball Continued from pai Momentum is so important in the game of j volleyball."

Jane Forman.' "We won some three-set matches that were important," Elkins said, "especially in the doubles matches. Seiffert and Holland don't have a lot of college tennis experience but they came through when they could've been down." SEIFFERT IS a freshman, while Holland is a senior who didn't see much playing time in her previous seasons. "Seiffert is getting better and better and it seems we can always count on Chafin," Elkins said. In doubles matches against UNC, USC took two out of three. Chafin and Jill Hausler won in three sets 6-4, 3-6, 6-2, while Holland and Seiffert won, also in three sets 6-4, 3-6, 6-2. i Also on Saturday, SMU beat Wisconsin 8-1, Duke earned a spot in the tournament final against SMU by defeating South Florida 6-3. Clemson took Indiana 5-4. IN THE final at Maxcy-Gregg, SMU defeated Duke for the championship, and Clemson defeated USC 8-1 for the third place showing. USC's lone victory in the match was at the No. 1 position, as Chafin defeated Clemson's Jane Forman 6-4, 7-5. [ "They have a good team but I felt we should have been up 4-2 after the singles matches," Elkins said. "We have a lot of room for improvement, but it's early." In future fall matches, USC will face Tennessee, Vanderbilt, and Middle Tennessee in Knoxville and Murfeesboro, Tenn. A match against Louisiana State is also in the future, Flkins said. e 17 just that when one player goes down it affects : the whole team." When the All-tournament team was announced, Lori Anne Rowe was named the Most Valuable Player. Along with Rowe, teammate Higgins was also on the honor team. "I feel that we are just three players away from being a top-10 team," Mozingo said. s ^ just keep on going."
