N.C. A8lT Rallies Past FSU, 20-13
North Carolina A&T
recovered from a two-
touchdown first-half deficit to
defeat Fayetteville State 20-13
Saturday night In a college
football game played at E. E.
Smith High School.
Steve Prince ran for a pair
of second-half touchdowns —
the first helping A&T, 3-4, take
the lead the second proving to
be the game winner.
Fayetteville State, 0-7,
broke on top when Anthony
Barnes caught a 10-yard
option pass from running
back Paul Stevens with 1:08
remlning in the first quarter.
Barnes, a Junior from
Triton High School, started at
quarterback for the first time,
and accounted for the
Broncos’ second score on a 1-
yard run with 10:07 left in the
second quarter that made it
13-0.
“We started Barnes at
quarterback because (Wllle)
Woodard was hurt," FSU coach
Ray McDougal said.
Stevens, formerly FSU's
starting quarterback, was
used exclusively at running
back until the game’s final
play. As a running back
Stevens not only threw for the
first touchdown, but also
broke loose off left tackle on an
80-yard run to set up the
Broncos’ second score.
A&T, 3-4, got on the
scoreboard when Walter
Buffort blocked Barnes’ punt
and returned It 22 yards for a
touchdown with 1:05 left In
the second quarter.
A&T mairched 50 yards in
five plays at the outset of the
third quarter, taking a 14-13
lead on a 14-yard touchdown
run by Prince, and Billy
Wehunt’s conversion kick.
Prince scored what proved
to be the winning touchdown,
capping a 57-yard, 6-play drive
with a 1-yard run with 1:18
remaining In the third
quarter.
The Broncos drove to the
A&T 30 late in the fourth
quarter, but were stopped
when Glen McFadden was
thrown for a 3-yard loss by
Kevin Little.
FSU got the ball once more,
with eight seconds remaining,
but Stevens’ screen pass was
dropped on the final play of the
game.
"We played a pretty good
game,” McDougal said. "We
just have to continue to work
and improve. Once again,
mistakes at crucial times with
the key to our loss.”
The Broncos had two kicks
blocked, lost two fumbles in
the second half and committed
a roughing-the-kicker penalty
which cdlowed A&T to keep the
football an extra two minutes
on its final possession.

Cline Brings Winning Attitude
to Fayetteville State Golf
Mark Cline glances
frequently at the yellow sheet
of paper as if to make sure it
hasn’t disappeared. The
paper, tom from a legal pad, is
filled from top to bottom with
scribbled schedule reminders.
”I have to write it all down,”
he said, "just so I’ll know it.”
Given the five-day whirl
wind he must endure later this
month. It’s easy to see how he
could get confused.
Cline Is Fayetteville State’s
assistant basketball coach,
and it only golf coach. On Oct.
17, he wiU help with early
morning basketball practice,
then load his five-man golf
team in a van, and head for
Mississippi.
After a 12-hour drive, they
will arrive at 2 in the morning.
The team will play a practice
round the next afternoon, play
two days of tournament golf,
then leave immediately after
the last round to return to
Fayetteville. Cline with make
the 12-hour drive back, then
help with basketball practice
the next morning.
The situation isn’t exactly
what Cline had in mind four
years ago when his basketball
career ended at Wake Forest.
But after a stint playing
professinally in Belgium, Cline
joined Wake assistant Jeff
Capel when Capel took the
Fayetteville State basketball
coach and athletic director
jobs.
Days later, Cline was
handed the golf program.
“I guess 1 had the lowest
handicap on campus. ” he said.
Cline had never played golf
until, in his senior year at
Wake, close friend Jamie
Harris talked him into walking
18 holes.
Harris, a backup quarter
back on the Deacons’ football
team, beat him regularly until
Cline’s competitive instincts
took over.
“1 got tired of getting beat,”
Cline said. “So 1 took some
lessons and got better. I
worked on it about as hard as 1
did my basketball game.”
In two years, Cline has
dropped his handicap to
seven, a fairly remarkable feat.
Yet he doesn’t profess to be a
golf teacher.
He’s a coach.
”1 don't like to lose no
matter what I do,” he said, “if
I’m the golf coach, then I'm
going to try my best to help us
win.
Right now, the Broncos are
in need of more players.
Cline’s entire squad consists
of senior Roger Pilgrim, a New
York City native and vice-
president of the FSU student
body, freshman Kenneth
Kelley, Chris Hall and Aaron
Blanks, and 45-year-old
sophomore Tim Dukes, a
career military man.
Cline hopes to add three
more players next year and
would like to keep local golfers
from going elsewhere, but he
must contend with budget
limitations.
■’Our basketball budget at
Wake was bigger than the
entire athletic budget at FSU,”
he said.
But Cline has become
industrious. Sandy Hall, a
local drivlng-range operator,
has helped with Instruction
and Cline has worked out a
deal with Willow Lakes in
which his players can play all
year for a flat fee. And he
attracts people with his
outgoing personality and
Atlantic Coast Conference
background.
“There’s a lot that can
done,” he said. "What 1 tell a
freshman is that he can come
in and play right away.”
"Fayetteville State is
getting better all the time,” he
said. "We’re enmphaslzing
that athletics is a means to
education, not the other way
around.”

TUITION
Schramm decries marches
and demonstrations as
“gimmicks ignored by
politicians.”
He and other University of
Illinois students are working
with school administrators to
develop a proposal that would
earmark 40 percent of tuition
income for financial aid to
assist the neediest students.
Groups of students are going
to the Capitol this month to
lobby for increased funding.
Schramm believes in the
power of the ballot box to win
legislative results. "Legislators
