Freshman end Hal Henderson was named to the second team defense. Quarterback Ben Mungin and defensive back Rick Stottlemyer, both sophomores, were given honorable mention. Henderson led Chowan’s defense in three categories; quarterback sacks with eight, fumble recoveries with six, and touchdowns scored with two. For his play against Westchester Community College, he earned the label to the Braves’ “big-play man” from Coach Jim Garrison. In that game, he recovered three fumbles, scoring one touchdown and setting up another. He made eight solo tackles including three quarterback sacks. Henderson was also named honorable mention all-American by J.C. Gridwire, a California publication. He was one of only eight defensive ends Six Braves On Coastal Star Team By HARRY PICKETT Six Chowan football players have been selected for the Coastal all- con ference team by merit of their outstan ding football prowess for the 1978 season. The six performers included offen sive players: flanker Vernon Morrison, tailback Percy Godette and quarter back Ben Mungin. Defensive end Robert Brown, strong safety Rick Stot tlemyer and linebacker Donnie Jones were the defensive selections. Godette, a 190-pound freshman from Havelock, was the only unanimous choice from the Brave squad. The 5- foot-11 gridder led the Coastal Con ference in rushing with 702 yards and eight touchdowns on 138 carries-good for 5.1 yards per carry. Mungin, of Charleston, S.C., was the conference’s total offensive leader with 1,623 yards. The 190-pound sophopmore threw for a school-record 18 touchdowns while completing 61 of 130 passes for 1,103 and rushing for another 520 yards. Mungin was the starting quarterback in the sixth annual Coastal Conference all- star game. Morrison, also a starter in this year’s all- star game, was among the league leaders in rushing, punt returns, kickoff returns and pass receiving. The 5- foot-7 speedster was second on the Brave squad in touchdowns with 11 tallies. Morrison is a sophomore from Raeford. Stottlemyer, the team’s top 4-year college prospect, intercepted three passes during the season, ranking him fifth in the league. The 200-pounder from Virginia Beach played admirably and it looks as if he’ll be headed to the University of Missouri, a Big-8 con ference member. Brown, at 6-foot-4 and 220 pounds, was named the top defensive lineman this season on the Chowan team. The vicious tackier is a freshman from Edenton, N.C. Classmate Donnie Jones played hnebacker this season. The 190-pounder from Virginia Beach suffered a broken leg against Westchester Community College in the sixth game of the season. Exchange Club 1978 Gifts Total $1,200 The total contributions of the Mur freesboro Exchange Club to Chowan in 1978 rose to $1,200 in December with a donation of $600. During the year club donated $900 for the “Accomplishing Our Mission,” campaign and $300 for the “Annual Giv ing Fund.” Dr. Bruce E. Whitaker expressed ap preciation for the club’s donations, say ing “The Murfreesboro Exchange Club has proven to be a good neighbor to the Murfreesboro community in many dif ferent ways, including its financial sup port of Chowan.” Chowan College’s fall sports teams were challenged by the nation’s youngest major college football coach to transfer what they had learned in athletic competition to their future lives. Bo Rein, head football coach at North Carolina State University, addressed Chowan’s annual fall sports banquet Dec. 8 in Thomas Cafeteria. “Build on what you have learned on the football field or in the gym for what you do later in life,” Rein told the large audience. “I challenge you to apply it to your future daily lives. If you do, you’ll be a better person for it.” Chowan’s football, volleyball and cross-country teams were honored, and the cheerleading squad recognized. Rein also warned that the youngsters should be taught ‘ ‘the right way to go by us oldsters.” Athletic competition, Rein stressed, developed three major traits— confidence, courage and fighting for a cause. “These are habits that are not taught in any classroom,” he said.. By KATHY FISHER When Chowan’s Lady Braves met Louisburg College February 2, not only did they undergo a 102-67 defeat, but they also suffered two injuries. Laura Brailsford, who scored 10 points for the Braves, injured her ankle with only 11:29 left in the last half of the game. It was later determined that it was a sprain, but still she will probably be out of action for the next two games. Mary Reilly also suffered a mild ankle turn and had to be taken out of the game. She is not expected to miss any games. Louisburg, who had the extra advantage of height, made the first basket of the game. Chowan never took the lead, and by the end of the first half, they were behind 28-56. In the second half, Chowan tried to comeback by shooting from the outside and by tightening up the defenses. But the Lady Braves were unable to Clocks Cut Energy Cost (Continued from Page 1) hours which was estimated to cost $63,000. Each kilowatt hour was calculated to cost about $1.04 during that period, business manager Ben Sut ton said. The electric bill paid in ’72 and ’73 was not metered, but about 800 kilometers was used per hour, he said. Fuel oil used in 1978 cost 43 cents a gallon and 14 cents a gallon in 1972. The estimated cost and amount used were $71,000 for about 166,000 gallons in 1978, and in 1972 it was $32,000 for about 224,000 gallons. To step up to the firing line, trade punches and win develops confidence Rein said. To know you will get knocked down but to get back up a thousand times breeds courage, he said. To play for each other, not yourself, is fighting for a cause, he went on. Rein was introduced by Linwood Furguson, assistant football coach. The Chowan football team finished second in the Coastal Conference and posted an overall 7-2 won-loss record. With only 20 sophomores and 13 returning freshmen starters, head coach Jim Garrison said, “I’ve got dreams of going a step further next year.... ^Ve had a great football season, and this was one of the greatest teams I’ve had the opportunity of coaching.” The Braves’ coaches decided not to award a most valuable player trophy, because, as Garrison put it, so many were valuable at different times during the season. ■ '•*“« ■ - But four players did get trophies. Sophomore linebacker Stanley Kearney of Warrenton was named the out- penetrate Louisburg’s defense. They were helped out slightly when two technicals were called on the Louisburg coach, but that was not enough. The final score was a staggering 102-67. Anita Durham led in the scoring with 22 points. She was followed by Georgia Ross with 13, Brailsford with 10, and Wilhemina Wilson with 8. Also scoring were Queenie Torrence who netted 6 points, Donna Hudson with 4, and Deborah Brown and Mary Reilly each 2 points. standing defensive back, freshman end Robert Brown of Edenton was the outstanding defensive lineman, soph tackle Ronald Brooks of Pittsboro was the outstanding offensive lineman, and soph quarterback Ben Mungin of Charleston, S.C., was the outstanding offensive back.
