THURSDAY, OCT. 7, 197i PAGE FOUR > l'\ Hsm-v? S.A. KNIGHTS AND CHEERLEADERS performing at Paront- Day last Saturday. pHOTOS BY JOHN SHARPE, HI Knights Triumph Thrice; Shut Out Greensboro 4-0 The beginning of St. An drew’s soccer season, amid all the festivities, ended in disaster as St. Andrews lost the opener 2-1 to East Carolina. Althou^ we dominated the game almost entirely, we were unable to score. The question at that time in many of our minds was wheth er or not we could defeat Pfeif fer and begin building up mo mentum. Whe Pfeiffer scored the first goal, immediately the thought that ran through our minds was, “Oh no, notagain.” Fortunately about five minutes before the half, we began to move, and John Daniel’s second quarter goal added the neces sary inspiration. We went on to defeat Pfeiffer 5-2 as freshman Johnnie Catmur scored two goals. Last Saturday, S.A. beat Methodist 4-1 on Parent’s Day in a game in which every S.A. player had an opportunity to play. The first goal was scored by Don Cooper on a long boom ing kickby veteran fullback John Rhoderick. Catmur scored a- gain along with two other fresh men Prem Thoonkapbalin and Richard Rhoderick. For his out standing performance last week, Catmur was awarded player of the week. Tuesday, S.A. was host to UNC-G, and although the de fense played below par, S.A. recorded its first shut-out of the season, 4-0. S.A.’s new em phasis on offense and defense is different from the past. This year, all eleven men are ex pected to play offense and de fense, so when it is said the defense had a below par game, it doesn’t mean only the half backs, fullbacks, and goalies. The problem with playing a team like UNC-G is that we dominated the game so much that everyone thinks about play ing offense. It was evident that UNC-G controlled the ball very little as they only recorded a very few shots, while we shot at least forty times. Unfortu nately, our shooting percentage seems to be quite low, and of the forty-plus shots, only a few were really good shots. S.A. began scoring early in the first quarter when a cross by Catmur was boomed by Don Cooper. Again, the other three goals were credited to fresh men. Prem Thookapbalin scored twice; first on a penal ty kick and secondly on an in direct kick. Freshman Bobby Latshaw also scored on one of the finest shots of the afternoon. Elsewhere on the field, the halfbacks, Freeman, Vakos, and Johnson have done excellent jobs in controlling midfield play. Often the halfbacks are overlooked, but in reality they are the most overworked play ers on the field. Halfbacks make or break a team, and so far ours seem to be holding us together. The fullbacks Rhoderick, Dufek, and freshman Asbury, have also played well together. They cover for each other and com municate very well in addition to their superb individual skills. S.A.’s problems thus far has really been lack of field unity. The fullbacks and goalie Jefl Beales work together well and the front line works together well. But as of this point in the season, the fullbacks, half, backs, and fron line have had their problems working togeth er. We are workinghard to cor rect this and it is showing. When we get it corrected, watch out. In case you have not noticed, since the first game, we have been scoring goals. There are now three members of the squad who have scored three goals; Cooper, Catmur, and Thoonkap balin. My prediction is that soon we will be scoring even more. This week-end, S.A. is on the road to play two games, one Fri day with N.C. Wesleyan and one Saturday with Virginia Wesley an. - ■ . The Bicycle club will be jou rneying to McColl this Satur day, October 9. Those wishing to participate will leave from the Student Center at 9 a.m. For more information contact Jeanne MacDougal at ext. 253.
