Sports Monday, November 20,1989 THE GAMECOCK 7 Gamecocl By BRANT LONG Assistant Sports Editor The USC soccer team has advanced to the quarterfinals of the NCAA Soccer Tournament with a 5-1 victory over Wake Forest Sunday at Polo Field in WinstonSalem, N.C. The Gamecocks, 17-2-2, struck early. At the 5:16 mark, Jeff Love took a give-and-go from Clark Brisson and hit a shot from 12-yards out for a 1-0 lead. Gamecock head coach Mark Berson remarked on the importance of the first goal. t "By scoring the first goal, we s established ourselves and made them respect us. It also gave us ? momentum," Berson said. j The momentum carried USC j to its second goal when freshman t Ruben Tufino scored unassisted j at the 18:02 mark. The score re- ( mained 2-0 in favor of USC at \ halftime. s Wake Forest got its only goal J late in the game. At the 71:17 mark, Gerraint Davies, who scored against USC in the Dea- < cons' victory earlier this season, t headed the ball in on a cross to 1 cut the Gamecock lead to 2-1. I USC answered Davies' goal at p the 77:44 mark when Tufinn r scored his second goal on a di- v rcct kick from 40 yards. Tufino's USC wins By CHRIS SILVESTRI Sports Editor The Gamecocks exhibition match against the Estonian National basketball team from the Soviet Union was anything but a typical preseason warmup. After 45 minutes of evenly played basketball, USC captured a 95-87 win in double overtime Saturday at the Frank McGuire Arena. 'To open up the exhibition season with a double overtime game is something else," said USC head coach George Felton. "I thought it really brought the team together, and I thought we played pretty well." The Estonia Nationals kept a lead for the majority of the second half, led by 10 three-pointers in regulation. Estonia held an eight point edge over the Gamecocks with just 2:56 left in regulation. A swarming USC defense, which caused three consecutive offensive penalites on the Estonians and blocked two last second shots, brought the Gamecocks back to a 74-74 tie. f "I thought we played some good man-to-man defense," Felton said. "They just shot the ball extremely well." It looked as though USC was going 10 secure uie viciuiy 111 uic first overtime as they held a threepoint lead with just 10 seconds remaining. But an off-balance j 21-footer by Andrus Nagel with , one tick left on the clock tied the game, forcing a second overtime. 1 The Gamecocks, paced by nine E of 11 shooting from the charity e stripe, built an eight-point advan- t tage in the second overtime, a lead * they would not relinquish. c USC was led by Joe Rhett with "Who do you tru wearing a polyester around his neck sel -. : Read J mmmm* - ... t | Shang prese "Nantu I Rock 'n Roll Thanksgiving Ni^ Ages 18 and 0\ $5.00 admission | 1-26 & St. Andrews Rd. ks blast D Mark Berson Fo wo goals give him six on the ^ ;eason. wi The Gamecocks scored again ^ it the 85:23 mark when Clark 8ai frisson put the ball in from 25 P61 ^ards out.
