Against the University of North

strained knee. Neither player participated

3-yard line to within the Western
Carolina 30, putting kicker Collin
Mackie in position to hit a 47-yard
field goal with 6:03 remaining in the
first quarter.
The stifling USC defense pressured
Catamount quarterback Todd Cottrell
and forced the punt early in the
game.
"We put pressure on the quarterback
and kept him out of his
rhythm," head coach Joe Morrison
said. "Anytime you shut a ball club
out, you have to have a pretty good
defensive performance."
With 17 seconds left to play in the
first quarter, Williams ran nine yards
for a touchdown. After the kick,
USC led 10-0. The score was the first
of his college career. On the night, he
rushed 18 times for 108 yards.
Defensive tackle Marty Dye
recovered a Western Carolina fumble
on the Catamounts' 46. After a
27-yard pass from Ellis to Hardin
Brown, USC was in position for
Dingle to dive four yards for a
touchdown.
"You can't look at games and say
they're going to be easy. Anybody
can beat any given opponent on any
given day," Dingle said. "As far as
the first touchdown goes, it felt
great."
With 10:39 left to go in the third
quarter, Dingle caught an Ellis pass
and was tackled inside the 1-yard
line. Dingle took it in for a
touchdown on the next play.
With 4:47 left in the third quarter,
USC's Patrick Hinton intercepted a
pass. At the 2:44 mark, Ellis found
wide receiver Carl Piatt on a 12-yard
pass play for a touchdown.
The final score of the game came
at the 9:20 mark in the fourth quarter
when Albert Haynes ran seven yards
for a touchdown.
USC outrushed Western Carolina
256 yards on 59 carries to 34 yards on
24 carries. Ellis had 13 completions
in 19 attempts for 187 yards and no
interceptions. Western Carolina
completed less than half of their
passes for only 89 yards. In total
yards, USC topped Western Carolina
452-123.
Next week, USC will face East
Carolina University at home. East
Tennessee will visit Western
Carolina.
