NAIA All-American, AP All-American,
CONVERSE Ail-American, NBA Coaches
All-American, Sporting News All-American— is
Bob Kauffman, Guilford's basketball
all-everything for the past four seasons.
Bob, who helped put Guilford College on
the basketball map, was the number three pick
in the NBA draft last spring following only
Houston's Elvin Hayes and Louisville's West ley
Unseld.
The Seattle Supersonics, in their second year
of operation, chose "the Big K" as they needed
a strong rebounder to help ease a need in their
front court.
Kauffman has drawn many pre-season raves.
Spuria Reviews' 19b8-(>9 Basketball calls him a tremendous prospect
and a definite contender for Rookie-of-the-Year honors. Pro
Basketball Almanac hails Bob as "A fine rebounder and probably a
good shooter it his 24.6 college average is indicative." Fast Break
calls Kauffman "a good draft choice from a small college, but
well-known to pro scouts. A definite help to the Seattle front
court." Basketball Yearbook calls him "a rugged rebounder whom
the Sonics expect a lot from."
Pre-season exhibition games saw Kauffman average 10.3 points
per game for twelve contests along with leading the club in
rebounding. Bob shot 44% from the field and 71.7% from the foul
line.
For the first seven regular season games Bob has averaged 11.7
points, with 15, 16, 17 in his most recent games. The NBA is a
league in a class by itself but the feeling is that Bob Kauffman will
help put Seattle on the NBA contending list.

"Where Experience Counts"

THE GUILFORDIAN
Soccer Team Host Wilmington
More Offense-Quake
The name of the game is
offense whether the sport is
football or soccer. On the
Guilford College scene, offense
seems to be lacking in both
sports.
The footballers of Coach Bob
Lord dropped their fifth
consecutive game Saturday, a
21-7 loss to Presbyterian
College. It marked the second
game in a row in which the
Quakers have tallied only one
touchdown and the fourth of
the past five. Guilford has put
across only eleven touchdowns
in six games while allowing the
opposition twenty-two. The
passing attack is almost
non-existent as witnessed by the
combined totals of the past two
weeks which shows sixteen
completions for sixty-six
attempts.
Against Presbyterian,
Guilford scored first as a result
of a fumble recovery of PC's 35,
a 24 yard pass interference
penalty and Harold Allen's short
yardage run. The Blue Hose, led
by quarterback Bill Kirtland,
and halfback Dan Eckstein
scored three times in the second
Hunt Allen
Lead Quakers
Senior end Mike Hunt and
sophomore tailback Harold
Allen head the Guilford College
football statistics after the first
six games of this season.
Hunt leads the pass receivers
with 19 catches for 314 yards, a
16.3 yard average per reception.
Freshman flanker John Dent
trails Hunt with 9 catches for
154 yards, a 17.1 average.
Allen is by far the Quakers
rushing leader as he has gained
326 yards on 73 carries for a 4.5
average per carry. Fullback
Larry Funkhouser is second with
190 yards on 57 carries, a 3.3
average.
Other leaders in major
categories include Allen in
scoring with 14 points, followed
by Dent's 12 points and another
dozen by kicker Mike Stewart.
Freshman Tom Pequese has four
interceptions followed by Willie
Inman's three. Junior Ray
Tavalaro has the most pass
completions with 34 and the
most yardage with 437 but
senior Mike Boccuzzi leads in
touchdown passes with four.

quarter before turning to a
strong defense and Guilford
mistakes in a scoreless second
half.
The Quakers did threaten in
the second half but a fumble and
one of four pass interceptions
ended the threats.
Tomorrow the Quakers
engage the Newberry Indians at
2 p.m. in Newberry, S.C. The
Indians of coach Fred Herren
have been losing along with
Guilford, bringing about a
meeting of teams with identical
1-5 records. Newberry holds a
27-6 victory over Concord
College of West Virginia. They
have been defeated by
Appalachian, Lenoir-Rhyne,
Jacksonville State, Catawba, and
Sofford. It's Homecoming for
the Indians who have many
returnees who remember last
season's 51-6 trouncing by the
Quakers. If Guilford is to stop
their losing streak and avoid the
basement of the Carol inas
Conference, an offense must be
generated for it will take more
than one touchdown to defeat
the tribe from Newberry.
On the other side of the
campus, the soccer squad of
Coach Mel Keiser, has been
experiencing much the same
problem as the football team.
After defeating Erskine and
Wesleyan a couple of weeks
back, the Quaker booters have
been shut out for four
consecutive matches. These four
defeats have dropped the overall
season mark to 2-6.
After playing their best
soccer of the year against N.C.
State despite a 2-0 loss, Guilford
has been blanked 1-0 by
Pembroke, 5-0 by St. Andrews,
and 2-0 by Appalachian.
Much of the problem has
been an injury to star forward
Randy Evans. Evans, who has
scored four goals this season, has
missed the past two games due
to a leg injury.
Defensively co-captain Joe
Spruill, Tim Wheeler, Chip
Crooks and goalie Norm Tuttle
have been playing well but it is
difficult to win without any
goals.
Coach Keiser hopes for more

DENNIS CARROLL
Dennis Carroll
This Week's Pick
Although only 5'7", 165 lbs.,
Dennis Carroll seems to do a
good job against the opposition
every week. Despite continually
playing many pounds larger,
Dennis may be the Quakers most
consistent blocker.
Guilford coach Bob Lord says
this of Dennis, "He continues to
amaze us with his outstanding
play. Pound for pound, Dennis is
as good as anybody in the
League."
Dennis hails from
Bladensburg, Maryland where he
attended Archbishop Carroll
High School. Besides playing
football at Archbishop Carroll,
Dennis was a member of the
wrestling and track squad. At
Guilford, he is a junior
economics major.
