Equestrian performs
well at spring show
The USC equestrian team held
its Intercollegiate Horse Show
Association spring show
Saturday at its home stables, the
Irish Oaks Equestrian Centre, in
Irmo.
All teams from IHSA Zone 5
Region 2 came out to compete in
spring-like temperatures.
Carolina was led by freshman
open rider Courtney Borton,
who won the Western portion of
the Zone 5 Region 2 IHSA com
petition held at USC’s home fa
cility.
Borton won open horseman
ship and was fourth in reining to
win the high point Western rider
award. Junior Kyra Hufford won
her Intermediate II clas.s and
freshman Laura Pipken was sec
ond in Advanced I.
In hunter seat, freshman
Chelsea Koornick won her sec
tion of open flat and was third
in intermediate over fences to
tie Jennifer Moody from
Auburn for high point hunt
seat Rider.
After a challenging ride-off to
determine high point and re
serve rider, Koornick finished
behind Moody.
Other second-place finishes
were made by junior Lindsey
Wilson in novice over fences,
junior Lisa Boykin in interme
diate fences, senior Michelle
Jenkins in walk/trot, senior
Jessica Keels and freshman
Ashley Williams in novice flat,
and sophomore Lindsey
Weathers in advanced
walk/trot/canter.
These, along with Koomick’s
finishes, gave the Gamecocks a
fourth-place finish in hunter
seat.
“It’s great to win High Point,”
Borton said. “It was an exciting
win, but I wouldn’t have been
able to do it without the support
of my team.”

free agency rolls around^it be
comes more and more unlikely
that the players will stay.
It’s a shame, and the NHL isn’t
doing too much to address this.
Teams like the Rangers, Dallas
Stars, Detroit Red Wings,
Colorado Avalanche and Toronto
Maple Leafs are starting to price
their fellow franchises out of exis
tence.
While there are probably sev-'
eral cities that should have never
gotten NHL clubs to begin with,
the line between the elite and the
dregs has been clearly distin
guished.
The cream of the league is ris
ing to the top, and with the excep
tion of the free-spending Rangers,
seems to be firmly set.
Rangers General Manager Glen
Sather knows what it’s like to be
strapped for cash. During the later
years of his tenure in Edmonton,
he derided the fiscally irresponsi
ble teams — ones like the one he
now works for, clearly forgetting
his roots among the bright lights
of Broadway.
Is this a surprise? It’s probably
not. For years, Madison Square
Garden has given its teams a carte
blanche to sign and trade for
whomever they could afford.
While New York City may be
where the world’s economy pul
sates, it’s also the same place
where the NHL has begun its
downfall.
Bettman and the league’s Board
of Governors must come down
hard on teams like the Rangers.
There has {o be some pressure
from within the league to convince
Sather that his management
strategies aren’t working.
Outsiders see what’s going
wrong, but little is being done to
fix it. And the .Rangers shouldn’t
really be the only ones singled out
— the other teams in a similar po
sition should take a good look at
themselves too. Otherwise, it may
be when more than the NHL’s
rinks are freezing over to end the
stalemate that is bound to happen
in 2004.
Rothenberg is a fourth-year sports
and entertainment management
student.

Odom to do show
from Greek Village
In a first for South Carolina,
the Dave Odom Radio Show will
be hosted by the Kappa Alpha
Fraternity House in USC’s
Greek Village on Feb. 20 from 7
to 8 p.m.
It’s the first time a coach's
show has been done from a USC
Greek house. In addition, it’s a
chance for the USC Greek sys
tem to show off its expanding
Greek Village near the Carolina
Center.
All USC Greeks — both fra
ternity and sorority — have been
invited to attend the live taping
of the show.
“We are really excited about
having it at the Kappa Alpha
house,” Kappa Alpha fraternity
President Bert Pickens said. “It’s
a real honor. We are hoping to
get all Greeks more involved
with the basketball program, es
pecially after the huge win over
Clemson last week.
“We invite all Greeks to at
tend, and we are thrilled we can
not only show off our house, but
