Mold, the only quarterback used by the ^ white squad, completed six of ten attempts for 132 yards. He threw three touchdowns on the night, connecting twice with I.add Fletcher and once with Sterling Sharpc. After the spring season finale, head coach Joe Morrison said he was pleased with the way the squads looked. "I I HOIK.Il l tli ere was a loi of good individual play out there," Morrison said. "Overall, the hustle, the intensity and enthusiasm were the key ingredients. _ "That's what we were looking for." ? But Morrison added that the team still needs improvement before next season's opener against The Citadel, Aug. 31."I realize we got a long way to go before we're ready to line up and play next fall," he said. "If they work hard in the weight room between now and next August, and get bigger and better ? we'll be alright." At one point during the game, Hold was assisted off the field with an apparent injury. The time Hold spent on the bench didn't last long bccausc he returned to action on the White's next possession. ^ IN TIIK LOCKER ROOM. Hold said with a laugh that he didn't want to comment on the "injury," saying it was an inside joke designed by coach Tank Black. "Planned? I heard that it was.
