Page 4 Sports Rams Stop Sandhills Bill Hardin capitalized on a penalty kick in the first period to give Southeastern a 1-0 win over Sandhills Community college. The game, played at Sandhills on September 25, vi^as the first victory the Rams have claimed this season. Southeastern took control of the ball from the starting whistle, and put heavy pressure on Sandhill’s defense. Hardin’s goal came a few minutes after the start of the game, and appeared to be the start of a Ram scoring spree. In the second quarter, action began to even out and Sandhills gained some share of ball control. The see-saw action which ensued saw the Rams hold only a slight edge in ball possession. The third and fourth quarters provided plenty of hard action, but no scoring. Goalie Winky Seaton made repeated saves to preserve Southeastern’s 1-0 margin. Fullbacks Jim Cary and John Howarth were instrumental in several defensive moves. The final gun found the Rams once more threatening Sandhill’s goal. The slate stands 1-2 for the Rams this season. Next action is at Pembroke on September 27 after the Campbell game was cancelled on September 26. Methodist Edges Rams, 7-0 Methodist College visited Chadbourn field for a soccer match with homestanding Southeastern on Sept. 18. Methodist proved to be too strong for the Rams, and came away with a 7-0 shutout. The Monarchs first goal came on a shot deflected off of a Ram player into the net. Methodist tallied once more before the quarter was over, but the Rams were unable to approach the visitor’s goal. The second quarter mostly followed the pattern of the first, with the Monarchs dominating most of the play. Two more points were chalked up to the Methodist total, and they led S. C. C. 4-0 at halftime. Action in the third quarter took an abrupt change in favor of Southeastern. The Rams took the offensive and controlled the game for the first time during the afternoon. The home team made eight attempts at the visitor’s goal, only to be unsuccessful in each bid for a score. Methodist shot only twice, but made good on one of these to lead 5-0 at the end of the period. A see-saw battle ensued during the fourth period before rain halted play. Once more the Rams failed to take advantage of their opportunites while Methodist made good use of theirs. The Monarchs scored twice more for the final 7-0 victory. S. C. C. now owns an 0-2 record and has a bruising schedule next week. Wingate Stops Rams In Opener The Rams of Southeastern invaded the campus of Wingate Junior College on September 16, only to suffer an 8-0 defeat at the hands of the Wingate soccer team. Neither team could manage a score in the first quarter. Most of the action took place at the Ram’s end of the field, where the Wingate offense took five shots at the S.C.C. goal. The Southeastern offence could irianage only one goal attempt. S.C.C. goalie Seaton made the key defensive move of the quarter by blocking a Wingate penalty shot. Wingate broke away for three goals in the latter part of the second quarter.

CHEERLEADING TRYOUTS HELD Tryouts for S. C. C. cheerleaders, under the supervision of faculty advisor Miss Sandra Sasser, were held on Thursday, September 18. Since there were only twelve girls present, however. Miss Sasser has announced that a final tryout will be held on Thursday, September 25. Miss Sasser said that many girls could not attend the first meeting, so a second chance is being afforded them. Quite a few of the girls present at the first tryout had previous cheerleading experience, and Miss Sasser has hopes for a good squad this year. She hopes to have nine girls to cheer this year, and will carry seven “at the very least”. “Many of the girls have some good ideas”, she reports, “such as having pep rallies and selling penants”. Much of the success of these endeavors will depend on the students. SCHOOL SPIRIT!! :>:v:v:v:v:v:rW*:!W*W!yrW*:!W:¥:WS*W:W:W*W:^ Rams Heard I By RICK MASON Once again Fall brings soccer games to the campus of Southeastern. As usual, a rousting 2% of the Student Body turned out for the first home game. What school spirit! How much more heartfelt support could the soccer team ask for? They could ask for a lot more, but since it has been to no avail in the past, they have ceased to think there is such a phenomena as "school spirit” at S.C.Q Where does the answer lie to this student apathy? The home game on Sept. 18 was amply advertised, yet students paid no heed. On most college campuses the first home game of any sport is well attended. But not dear old Southeastern. Students constantly complain about having nothing to do. But it is apparent that the thing they have nothing of is the initiative to get off their respective posteriors and drag themselves to the soccer field. But such a supreme sacrifice should not be asked of anyone, especially those as consciencious as the Southeastern breed. in all fairness, tribute should be paid to that band of students who did go to the home game. It included our S.G.A. president, which never happened last year. The president of our school. Dr Cottingham, also attended, which exemplifies his earnest intentions of standing behind his students. As for the rest, any effort they might make would probably kill them, so perhaps they should avoid catching school spirit, because it can be very damaging to a lazy student's constitution. muster a serious offensive drive, and went into half-time scoreless. The second half found Wingate dominating the action once more. Fouls took their toll on the Rams who gathered three in the second half. Wingate took advantage of the Ram miscues and found the range for two goals in the third quarter. Scoring three more times in the final period, Wingate blanked Southeastern the rest of the way to preserve their 8-0 shutout. The game was the first of the season for both teams. Southeastern has a match with Methodist on Sept. 18 at home, then has a tough four game week ahead.

Terry Hardison makes illegal throw-in against St. Andrews Soccer Team Is Inexperienced By John Howarth \ Students at S. C. C. might be asking why the soccer team has lost their first two game^? To answer this question, let usiook at the experience of the Ram soccer team. The most experienced player on the squad has only been playing for two quarters. AH total the first string players have only 6 years of playing experience between them. e teams, that S.C. C. players have played have been blessed with much more seasoned veterans. More than half of Wingate College p ayers are on soccer scholarship. Three players on this team have a a total to over 15 years of soccer playing. Most of the Wingate Players have been playing soccer for two or three years. Wingate is only a two year college. 5. C C. has only 7 games out of a 14 game schedule with 2 year sc 00 s. The rest of the games are universities or 4 year collets. It is a we known fact that S.C.C. has the hardest schedule of any two year ege in the state. One thing about being an inexperienced ea/T7. e only way to go is up. The boys playing on S. C. C. s occer team have a lot of spirit and drive to win. So don't put the team do wn so early in the season.
