THE VOICE, March 4,1982—7 SPO RTS- Broncos Bounce Back To Win Finale By Stan Singleton Fayetteville State’s hopes of capturing the regular season championship in the CIAA were dashed last Thursday night by the Johnson C. Smith Golden Bulls. The Bulls jumped off to an early 10-0 lead and held off a Broncos rally to win 65- 56. The victory gave Johnson C. Smith the regular season title and the number one seed in the tournament. Even though the loss to Johnson C. Smith denied the Broncos the number one seed in the CIAA and an automatic berth in the NAIA District 26 Tournament. The Broncos by rebounding to defeat Shaw Univeristy clinched the number two seed in the CIAA and remained in contention for an at large berth in the NAIA 4 team field, with the winner going to the finals in Kansas City, Mo. In their final regular season game, the Broncos used an all court pressing defense to force numerous Shaw turnovers and converted them into easy baskets en route to a 64-55 vitory. Bonnie McNeil, after being held to 7 points by Johnson C. Smith exploded for 28 points to lead the Broncos in scoring. Dino Russel ad ded 20 points. As the Broncos closed out the regular season with a record of 14-5 in the CIAA and 19-6 overall.

Life, and Lowenbrau Beers Lady Broncos Upset By Stan Singleton The FSU Broncoettes ended the regular season with a twelve (12) game winning streak. 12-0 conference mark, and an overall record of 21-1. In the first round ot the CIAA Tournament in Durham, the lady Broncos delivered a sound thrashing to fourth seeded Hampton Institute, 57-44. The Broncoettes then met a fired-up Norfolk State team, and were convin cingly defeated, 90-77. That ended all hopes of capturing the CIAA CHampion- ship to go along with their regular season crown. After falling behind early in the contest, they were unable to catch up. Concetha “CC” Smith led the scoring with 25 points. The Broncoettes were seeded number one going into the tournament and were favored to win. Last year they were rated the top team in the CIAA, and were the odds-makers choice to capture the tournament championship, but they were up set in the first round by Virginia State. Going into this year’s tourney, junior forward, Sherlyn Drayton felt that this year’s team was more united, more disciplined and willing to make more sacrifices than last year’s team. In the opening game against Hampton Institute, the lady Broncos performed like a team destined to make amends for last years disappointing loss in the opening round, as they thoroughly took apart Hampton. But against Norfolk State, they didn’t seem to have the confidence they had displayed during the regular season, commiting numerous turnovers and missing easy shots. The Broncoettes returned home to host the opening round of the NAIA District 26 Tournament, Monday night, February 22,1982. The FSU team broke away from a 35-all second half tie to rout Johnson C. Smith and advance to the NAIA District 26 finals in the tournament opener. Playing with only seven players, the FSU women lost to Elon College, 73-65 in the District Championship game. Ranked sixth in the latest NAIA poll, FSU finished its season with a 23-3 record and a 14-1 district mark.
