Gamecock standout Brian
Winstcad to become the school's
all-time scoring leaders.
After Wednesday's 10-0 rout
of Baptist College, Allison, a
junior, has 46 goals and 20 assists
for 112 points. Ratcliff, a senior,
has 34 goals and 20 assists for 88
points.
Winstead, who played for USC
? in the 1978 and '79 seasons,
scored 33 goals and added 14
assists for 80 total points. He led
the squad in scoring in its first
two years of existence.
/\mson nas lea tne team in
scoring since his freshman year
and Winstead said, "he has the
best skills and is probably the
best forward I have ever seen
play.
"He always thinks three or
four plays ahead. It's amazing
how much skill and thought goes
into his game."
Winstead said he likes to compare
himself to Ratcliff.
"We're both comoletelv all
hustle. We try to make smart
runs and be in the right place at
the right time."
USC head coach Mark Berson
says he doesn't like to compare
the three players but agrees "all
of them have a knack for scoring
goals.

Ian Ratcliff:

"Brian Winstead was simply a
hungry player in front of the
goal. In loose ball situations in
f . r a1 1 i r
ironi 01 uic goai, ne was unc ui
the best we've had here.
"Dan Ratcliff relies on his
strength to score goals. He's one
of our most composed players
around the face of the goal.
Many players, even good players,
tend to freeze up in front of the
goal.
"Doug Allison relies on his
finesse and reading the game. He
has great anticipation and a
tremendous gift for putting the
right weight on a shot to keep it
from going over the goal."
Berson and Winstead agree
Allison and Ratcliff complement
each other and have benefitted
from playing alongside one
another.
I used to see a lot of double
coverage," Winstead said.
"Teams would try to mark me
out of the game.
"You can't mark Allison with
two guys because that leaves
Ratcliff open. But they still have
to put their best defender on
Doug because he's the most
dangerous player, and that's an
advantage for Dan."
Junior forward Scott Cook,
who scored a winning goal in this
summer's Olympic Festival, must
also be added into the RatcliffAllison
picture.
"There's no question Scott
Cook has helped both Doug and
Dan," Berson said. "They make

Baptist Coll
By RICHARD BREEN
Senior reporter
The USC soccer team outshot
Baptist College 40-0 to pummel
the Buccaneers 10-0 at The
Graveyard.
The 12th ranked Gamecocks
upped their record Wednesday
to 16-4 with one regular season
game left to play.
At the 29-minute mark,
sophomore Grenville Pope set
up junior Scott Cook with a
crossing pass and Cook made
the score 1-0.
Pope, who was in the lineup
in place of senior Dan Ratcliff,
u/9c talfpn Hnwn nn n fnrWlp at
the 35-minute mark. The foul
sent USC head coach Mark Berson
storming down the sideline,
demanding a penalty kick.
Pope, meanwhile, had to be
carried off the field and was out
for the game. Berson said he
thinks the injury is "a badly
sprained ankle."
Moments later, Allison weaved
through two defenders, faked
out the goalie and put the
n i. a ^ a

"We haven't been able to
produce a lot of goals lately,"
Berson said. "I have to give our
guys credit for keeping their

Everything went the
Gamecocks' way in the second
half as they produced an
avalanche of goals.
Junior Mark Root scored at
52:06, and then assisted fellow
junior Marty Baltzegar off a
corner kick at 54:29.
Senior Arni Arnthorsson
then assisted on Allison's 15th
goal of the season at 60:18 and
it was 5-0 Gamecocks.
Arnthorsson scored at 71:55
off a pass from junior Keith
Lccper, and freshman Scott
Henderson's penalty kick put
USC up 8-0 at 77:17.
Less than three minutes later,
freshman Patrick Mihm drilled
a shot from long range.
Freshman Thomas Tomlinson's
cross set up the final goal by
Ratcliff at 86:15.
The Gamecocks face No. 6
Akron Saturday at 11 a.m. at
The Graveyard. The Zips "are
a very tough team and play a
very hard, physical game," Berson
said.
The game should be over
before 1 p.m.
