and was flat (cticd 6-0 by the
Gamccock soccer (cam Sunday at
The Graveyard.
USC, 13-1-2 and No. 1 in the nation,
took control early against the
Dolphins. Only three minutes into
the game, Doug Allison scored oil' a
header in the goal box.
" The ball popped up, and I headed
it," Allison said. "It hit someone,
but it was going in anyway."
At the 11:0H mark, the Gamecocks
struck again as Pat Walsh scored off
a corner kick.
A /\rni /\rniiu>rsst>ii was gtMiig iui
l he Iron I post," Walsh said. "It just
went over Scoti Cook, and I was
there."
The hall was in front of the
Dolphins' goal for much of the first
half as Jacksonville couldn't mount
any offensive threats.
"We basically forced the issue
from the beginning," USC head
coach Mark Berson said. "Some
things started to click for us."
Things were clicking at 21:58,
when Walsh scored again. "One of
their guys tried to pass it back to the
goalkeeper, and ii went in," Walsh
said. "I was closest to the ball."

The Lady Gamecock volleyball
team raised their overall record to
11-9 after defeating Metro Con
fcrcncc foe Southern Mississippi
3-0.
The victory pushed USC's conference
record to 2-3.
"It was very good to sec that
our team had enough discipline to
win in three games," said head
coach Bonnie Kenny.
USC started off slow in the first
game, falling behind 0-3. With
the score tied at 7-7, the Lady
, Gamecocks scorcd the next five^
' points to go up 12-7.
Southern Mississippi tried to
rally, but could only come as close
as 12-9. Hustle and offensive
power allowed USC to take the
final three points.
They took the first game 15-9

The Dolphins were looking more
and more lifeless with each passing
minute, and the Ciamecocks caught
them napping with 16:41 left in the
half.
Jim Sonefeld chipped a free kick
over the Dolphin defense to a rushing
Marty Haltzegar, who beat the
goalkeeper and made it 4-0.
"The forward didn't come back
and mark me," Balt/egar said. "Jim
saw me running in. When I got the
ball, 1 felt I was all alone."
The first half ended with USC outshooting
the Dolphins 13-0 and making
wholesale changes throughout the
lineup. The second half featured a
different cast of Gamecock
characters, but the results were the
same.
Phil Scitlcnburg converted a Clark
Hrisson pass at 58:33 to make it 5-0.
"I got a great through ball from
Clark Hrisson," Seidcnburg said. "I
kind of fumbled with it and had to
cut it."
Hrisson also created the final goal
at 79:58. The freshman from
Raleigh, N.C., dribbled in from the
right side and passed across the goal
mouth to Jeff Love, who scored
from point blank.
"I'm extremely proud of the way
these guys played," Herson said.

"I'm also proud of the fact that we
shut them out. We're finally at the
point where we are playing with a set
lineup.
NOTliS: The Gamecocks will be off
until Nov. 3, when they head to
Greenville to play Furman. The
Paladins beat USC 3-0 in 1986.
The Gamccocks host the
Metropolitan Life Classic Nov. 7-8 at
The Graveyard. The tournament will
feature Akron, Boston University
and William and Mary.
IJSC will play William and Mary
Saturday at 3 p.m. and Boston Sunday
at 3 p.m.
"1 think it's gonna be the premiere
event for soccer here in the
Midlands," Bcrson said.
Sunday's shutout was USC's 11th
of the season. Carolina has outscored
its opponents 55-6. Charlie Arndt is
allowing an average of only .38 goals
per game.
Allison's goal Sunday was his
team-leading 13th of the season.
USC's all-time leading scorer, the
Barnstaple, England, native has 59
goals and 31 assists.
If the Gamecocks maintain their
No. 1 ranking in both the South and
the nation, they would virtually be
assured home-field advantage
throughout the NCAA playoffs.

By VVAYNi: WASHINGTON
Sports editor
USC senior cheerleader Jamie
Sanders found himself bringing more
than iust a mega phone and
microphone to Saturday's game
against Eiasl Carolina.
He brought 10-gauge shotgun
shells.
He didn't bring these shells for the
Gamecock fans who leave early after
the winner of the game is determined
nor for the Pirates, who turned out
to be a rather belligerent bunch.
No, he brought these shells for the
cannon, which was given to the
Gamecocks by the Horry County
Gamecock Club in 1979 and is used
every time the Gamecocks score a
touchdown or a field goal.
Once again, Sanders left with a
load much lighter than the one he
came in with.
Sanders, who has been shooting
the cannon off for the past two
seasons, shook his head affirmatively
when asked if he brought more am
munition this year in expectation of a
more potent USC offense.
"We're shootin' the hell out of this
thing this year," he said. "And we're
gonna shoot even more for
Clemson."
That may indeed be the case if the
Tigers play defense the way they did
Saturday, when they allowed former
Hast Carolina victim North Carolina
State to score 30 points in the first
half.
That may indeed he the case if
USC quarterback Todd L-llis has
another performance like the one he
had Saturday, when he threw for a
