His Gamecocks, losing a j-poim icaa in mc nnai moments of the game, lost 71-69 to Virginia Tech. In his wake, Felton left a path of dejected Gamecocks. USC's Tony Shaw, who played relatively free of foul trouble for the first time in four games, sat with his head in his hands. Sophomore Terry Dozier, who fc led the Gamecocks in scoring with 25 points, crouched on the floor with his hands on his sneakers. Neither Shaw nor Dozier wanted to answer the questions of the reporters who carefully strolled through the room. Felton seemed to have no proU1 1 * ^ uiciii analyzing mc oamccocKS' fourth consecutivc loss. "It was a game of opportunities. We had ours. We have no one to blame except ? ourselves," Felton said after USC lost their sixth Metro Conference game in 10 tries. The Gamecocks did have their opportunities.

From there, however, VPPs Vcrncll "Bimbo" Coles took over. The 6-foot-1-inch guard, held scoreless in only 17 minutes of this first USC-VPI contest, sank two free throws to cut the Gamecock lead to 3. Following a USC turnover, Coles made a 13-foot jumper and the Hokies were only down by 1 with OOA "?v?i f. A-vy IVU. The Gamecocks made another turnover, and Coles gave his Hokics the lead with a bank shot from the left lane. USC was finished turning the ball over, but Coles was not through scoring. His two free throws with one second left ended all Gamecock comeback prayers. VPI head coach Charlie Moir had high praise for the efforts of Coles, who finished with 18 points. "Coles played fantastic ball. He didn't allow us to fold," Moir said.

Junior forward Monica Williams sank an 18-foot jumper with nine seconds left to clinch the victory, which pushed the Lady Gamecocks record to 13-10, 7-4 in the Metro. "I wasn't really nervous. 1 knew I had to shoot," Williams said. Williams and senior Tammy Harvey tied with 14 points to lead the Lady Gamecocks in scoring.

FSU answered with a 12-4 streak of their own and led twice before USC tied it at 16 with 10:28 in the half. Carolina never trailed after that, but never pulled away either, as the Lady Seininoles fought to keep the game close. Bench strength proved to be important for the Lady Gamecocks, with freshman Schonna Banner adding 8 points and junior Larraine Frazicr contributing 10.
