Lady Game*
finish regul
By RICHARD BRtEN
Senior reporter
A late surge gave USC's
women's basketball team an
81-63 home-court win over Furman
Monday.
Leading bv seven with onlv five
minutes left in the game, the
Lady Gamecocks (16-11) went on
a 15-2 tear, including 12 straight
points, to clinch the victory.
"In the last four minutes, we
missed some crucial shots which
really hurt us," said Furman
head coach Sherry Carter.
"Furman played a great game
and did some outstanding
shooting," said Nancy Wilson,
USC head coach.
"I thought they shot tremendously,"
said Carolina guard
Dawn Raab. "I don't think you
can shoot much better than
that."
The Lady Paladins hit 15 of 21
shots for a .714 percentage as
they and the Lady Gamecocks
played even for most of the first
half. The score was tied 11 times
before 6 straight points put USC
' ahead to stay.

Carolina briefly led by 16 midway
through the second half, but
Furman fought back with 6- and
5-point runs before falling in the
last minutes.
As in Saturday night's 96-66
pounding of Georgia State, five
Lady Gamecocks scored in double
figures. Martha Parker led
USC with 16 points, Lisa Diaz
and Tammy Harvey both had 13,
Schonna Banner scored 12 and
Monica Williams had 11.
"We've had fun in these last
two games," Raab said. "We've
been really relaxed and not so
uptight."
Harvey, a forward playing in
her last regular season game, had
six rebounds in addition to her 13
points.
"I thought she did an excellent
job, and I'm really glad for that
since it was in her last night in the
coliseum," Wilson said.
The second-seeded Lady
Gamecocks face seventh-seeded
Cincinnati in the first round of
the Metro Conference Tournament
in Blacksburg, Va. at 6
p.m. Thursday.

USC wins si:
By WAYNE WASHINGTON
Assistant spwts editor
Dave Smyth singled in the bottom
of the 11th inning to propel
USC to a 4-3 victory over Arm
strong State yesterday at Sarge
Frye Field.
The Gamecocks, who have
won their first six games, were
limited to 10 hits before Smyth
delivered his game-winning hit.
Transfer Mike Songini led off
the bottom of the first for the
Gamecocks by walking, and
Smyth followed with a double.
Junior Dave Hollins' sacrifice
fly gave the Gamecocks a 1-0
lead.
Designated hitter Charlie
Aldrich continued the Gamecock
rally with a single before outfielder
Garrett Carter homered to
make the score 3-0.
The Pirates struck back in the
next inning, however.
Charlie Broad reached first
base on an error, and junior
Dana Harding slammed a homer
to left to bring the Pirates within
one, 3-2.
