"We just weren't able to take

"OVERALL, WITH the exception

against Wake Forest, we played well,"
Berson said.
The Demon Deacons scored the tic.

Herson said. "Wake F-'orest saw this,
and were able to score."
Although Herson will have to wait
another day to see his dream of a
Gamecock victory over Clemson.he
was happy with the tournament itself.
'THE SURFACE was in good

Berson said. "The Hubble

success."
And just as the quarter finals was

were for Clemson ? the culprit again

USU pounds 49ers
with 16-1 victory
By Tracy Mixson and Jeff Owens
Two newcomers to USC's baseball team led a 19-hit,
16-run attack yesterday as the Gamecocks pounded UNCCharlotte
at Sarge Frye Field, 16-1.
Jeff Morris and Charlie Aldrich, junior college transfers
who joined Carolina this season, combined for five hits
and six runs in the Gamecocks' 1985 home opener.
Aldrich's double in the second inning started a six-run,
two-out Gamecock rally to quickly put the game out of the
49ers' reach.

ground-out. After Jeff Barnes walked, a double steal
resulted in USC's first score and opened the doors to the
Gamecocks' rout.
Losing pitcher Jeff Johnson appeared to be rattled as he
walked both Dave Hollins and Bobby Miller, setting up a
three-run double by Rob Rhinehart. Morris then added two
more with a home run.
After five more runs in the next four innings, the
Gamecocks enjoyed another big inning in the seventh, led
by USC reserves Mark Nelson, Garrett Carter, Keith
Killian and Lewis Jenkins.
Nelson led off with a double and scored on another double
by Carter. Killian and Jenkins brottght home the next
three runs with back-to-back homers.
"NELSON, CARTER AND JENKINS all came off the
bench and had big hits, and Killian hit a monstrous home
run," said June Raines, USC head baseball coach. "I was
pleased to be able to play every one."
Raines said every Gameock, with the exception of pitchers
and injured players, played.
Ten extra base hits highlighted the 19-hit attack off four
UNC-C pitchers.
"We came out and swung the bats really well," Raines
said. "When one guy isn't hitting, the others are."
ALMOST FVERY PI.AYFR was hitting yesterday, as
13 of 17 Gamecocks earned a hit off the 49ers. "I was
pleased with their overall effort," Raines said.
That overall effort also included starting pitcher l.arry

with a 9-3 record, went six innings while walking four and
striking out two.

over Baptist College in Charleston, lifted the Gamecocks'
record to 2-0.
