The Clarion March 31. 1995 Page 7 SPORTS BC Baseball team keeps on winning go 5 for 5 and Scott Pastushok go 6 for 8 on the day. Heath Brown also swung a red hot bat going 7 for 8 on the day. As for the pitching stuff, BC starters Gary Schuford, Jonathan Rose, Chad Berryman, and Tim Brown all are throwing well. Relief pitching has succeeded primarily because of Steve Mullis (2 wins, 0 losses, and 2 saves), Daniel Bowman (1 win, 1 loss, and 2 saves) and the reliable Mike English. BC pitchers Steve Sanders and Jerimiah Smith unfortunately remain on the in jured list and will be out for sometime BC golf team begins play Lanier Shull Clarion Staff Writer Brevard’s seven member golt team, which is coached by Scott Yager and Andy Schaefer, started its spring season with a tournament in Greens boro, North Carolina on March 4-5. The players that participated in the tournament were Alex Campagnoli, Billy Hendrix, Ian Bollinger, Jeff Durham, and Eric Wasser. Campagnoli led the team with a low score of 72, but the team as a whole finished eighth out of eleven schools. On March 9, the golf team had its first match at Brevard’s Glen Cannon Country Club, finishing last. On March 23, they participated in a match in Asheville. The team did a little better, finishing third out of five schools. They still have two matches and two tournaments to go. 'ItM. Brevard College 1995 Outdoor Track & Field Team Outdoor track season begins While every other BC student quickly departed Friday, March 10, to begin a 10 day Spring Break, the Bre vard College baseball teams remained behind, eagerly awaiting the opportunity to play 10 games in the next 6 days. Overall, the Tornadoes went 6-4 with wins against Anderson College, Mohawk Valley, Hagerstown, Walter State and Roane State. To say the least, Brevard would have liked to go un beaten in the 10 game stretch, yet win ning 6 out of 10 games alone is impres sive enough. After getting the next five days off to have a short Spring Break of their own, the Tornadoes jumped back into action beginning Wednesday, March 22, against Young Harris College, splitting the double header 1-1. Brevard then swept a double header against Coyahoga College the next day. Sunday, March 26, Brevard traveled to Louisberg Col lege and once again split a double head er, 1-1. In the most recent game on March 29, the Tornadoes once again played Coyahoga College. Looking to go perfect against Coyahoga, Brevard failed to respond to the Coyahoga hit ting attack. BC lost the first game 13- 11 in extra innings. Tornadoes jumped out to an 9-0 first inning lead and hung on to win 11-5. Derek Henson and Heath Brown each homered for Bre vard, who also watched Chad Faircloth Men's basketball finishes respectfully Dave Harrison Clarion Staff Writer The men’s basketball team had their share of ups and downs this past season. One of the downs was that key players were not making their grades. Because of this, they were not able to finish up the season and contribute to the team. With newly acquired Coach Dudley Bradley, the team found their way to a hard, but strong, season. One of the ups in the season was '•••when Mike Felder hitting a last second shot against Hiawasee in the Pizza Hut Classic," said Will Fleming. Although the Tornadoes finished with a record of 9-14, they had many close games and they certainly played their hearts out! Next year’s team will consist of strong returnees, as well as some new recruits, as the Tornadoes look ahead to the future. Joseph Johnson Clarion Staff Writer Spring is finally here, and with it, the arrival of outdoor track. Both men’s and women’s teams are expecting strong showings this year when they compete in the NJCAA Championships, which are to be held in Odessa, Texas, from May 18-20. If Indoor Track was any indication of success, then this year s outdoor track teams should be on course for a great year. The men’s distance medley and two mile relay teams both placed third at the Indoor National Championships in Manhattan, Kan^s, to earn All-American honors. The women were led by Cori Rhoads, who placed fourth in the 1000 meter run, and Lisa Roberts who placed sixth in the triple jump, giving them both All- American status. This year’s outdoor track teams also have the potential to -send many people to the national meet in Texas. They will be competing against such powers as North Carolina-Chapel Hill, Villanova, Tennessee, and Michigan. One of their bigget meets was the Raleigh Relays on March 24 and 25. This meet attracts over two thousand athletes, as well as a large number of spectators. It looks as if the stage is set for Brevard’s track teams to have another exciting season. BC student places second in climbing competition Jon Ostendorff Clarion Asst. Editor Brevard College held its second armual Indoor Wall Climbing Competi tion on Saturday, March 4, in the auxiliary gym of Boshamer Gymnasium. In the advanced division, the winners were: Joe Bryson, a sopho more at Brevard High School, placed first, and Nathan Payne, a freshman at Brevard College, placed second. In the beginner division, Chris Hall placed first, and freshman Mark Casson took a close second. The competition consisted of four routes, which both the advanced and begirmers climbed. Although the climbers from both divisions climbed the same routes, they were only in competition with the climbers from their division. They were judged by the number of holds they touched on each route, and extra points were awarded for moving past the last hold and hanging on the top of the wall for a minimum of three seconds. The proceeds of this event went to support the Brevard College Outing Club. Special thanks to Clyde Carter, Mike McCorrmick, and Matt Freddy for designing and building the competi tion routes. Gratitude is also extended to Brad McCarly for organizing and publicizing this event. Prizes were donated by Looking Glass Outfitters. Tennis team hits the courts Charley Holt Clarion Staff Writer As Spring begins, so does the ladies’ termis season. Some of the girls believe they will be as good as last year when they placed second in their divi sion, losing only to Anderson in the Region Finals. The team, which is coached by Joe Bartilinski, practices daily from 3:45 to 5:30 doing drills and sprints. This year, there are only two returning sophomores: Tonya Costa and Melissa McIntosh. One of the girls sUted, "It will take a while to become a team, but we will have a chance to win the region." The team’s season opener was last weekend against Spartanburg Methodist College. Although it will be a tough season, it looks as if the lady tornadoes are on their way back to the Region Tournament.
