Wrestling Team Opens Season
With Pfeiffer College Tonight
Tonight the 10-man wrestling
team will represent St Andrews
at Pfeiffer College in the team’s
first match of the season; their
next engagement will be against
William & Mary’s junior var
sity Feb. 9. Prof. William Mor
gan and Coach James Ollis
have worked closely with these
boys to get them in shape, with
the assistance of team captain
Dick Knowles.
The team consists of Woody
Woodard, co-captain; Larry
Varner, Fleming Jones, Nick
Hobbie, Dave Caraker, Jack
Hansel, Lee Yarborough, Pas
cal Stewart, and Charles Year-
gen.
Some of the boys wrestled
last year at PJC, but most are
new to the mat. In spite of
their inexperience, to quote
Captain Knowles, “The spirit
and effort of a winning team
has been shown in the work
outs and exercises.”
Scientific wrestling is some
thing of an art as well as a
sport. Scientific wrestling de
pends upon speed, skill, and
ability to outsmart one’s op
ponent,' and does not rely on
painful pressure holds.
Captain Knowles has express
ed his appreciation to the team
for its hard work and looks
forward to gaining valuable ex
perience this season. He adds,
“We hope to come back from
AAU with a few medals to our
credit.”

Seven proved to be the magic
number as the Knights of St.
Andrews recorded their first
varsity basketball win. The
feeling was in the air as the
Knights took the court for the
second half in Charlotte that
a victory was within reach if
the Knights could maintain
their first-half pace. As the fin
al buzzer sounded, St. Andrews
was on top in points for the
first time this season 84 to
73. Behind 3 points at half time,
St. Andrews kept right behind
the Charlotte College five and
pulled out ahead in the last
minute of play.
The Knights played as a
team and won as a team play
ing together should win. Cecil
Chewning, Joe Speaks, and Bill
Clark played heads up ball un
der the boards and in the scor
ing department for the Knights.
Defeated Again
The Camels of Campbell Col
lege proved their height and
team experience were too great
for the Knights to overcome as
they downed St. Andrews by
20 points in the second meet
ing of these teams on the sea
son. Campbell is having anoth
er fine year with only two de
feats to mar their record.
The Knights fought an up-hill
battle all the way. The Knights
were determined after their
fine showing against Georgia
State in their last outing. This
marked the sixth straight loss
for Coach Rufus Hackney’s
young Knights. Although never
really in the game, the Knights
tried hard to regain the com
posure that makes a team a
threat.

In the backcourt George Britt,

set up the plays and helped
control the fast guards of the
Charlotte five.
Georgia State
Edges Knights
The Knights made their first
out-of-state trip, one that prov
ed St. Andrews is on the verge
of its first basketball victory.
Coach Rufus Hackney took the
Knights on a three-day trip to
Atlanta, Georgia, and almost
came back with a victory. In
losing to Georgia State, 88-84,
the Knights gained an import
ant step in overall team morale.
The two equally balanced teams
played nip-and-tuck throughout
the contest, with St. Andrews
leading at half-time, 47-46.
In ,the scoring department
Joe Buckner took high man hon
ors for the game and for the
Knights with 26 points. Bill
Clark scored all of his 16 points
in the first half except for 2
points he scored before leaving
the game in the first few min
utes of the second half. Joe
Speaks and George Britt had 10
points apiece, while Jim Bun
nell and Jerry Dawson had 9
and 5 points respectively.
Rounding out the scoring for
the Knights was Cecil Chewn
ing with 6 points before leaving
the game early because of a
foot injury.
