Lady Quakers Whip N.C. Central
The Guilford College
Women's Volleyball team
opened its 1977 season with
a win. The Quakers downed
North Carolina Central
University 6-15, 15-10, 15-9
in Durham on Thursday even
ing, September 22. The
Quakers experienced difficulty
in keeping their serve, and
through backcpurt play
sparked a comeback, the
women could not sustain
the drive as North Carolina
Central took the first game
15-6.
The outlook improved in
game 2 as a strategic maneuver
removed the block. Intelligent
offense by freshman Lynn
Zahurak plus consistent serv
ing by sophomore Jennie
Davis, along with overall
improved defense made the
difference here, as Guilford
won game 2,15-10.
The Quakers seemed strong
early in Game 3 as they held
a 7-3 lead over the War Eagles.
Though at one time North
Carolina Central came back
to lead by one, the Quakers
pulled it out 15-11.
Guilford stormed over
Central during game 4 to
build up a 12-2 lead, prompt
ing liberaJ substitution. A
strong comeback bid by
Central forced Coach Currie
to return her starters to the
game which Guilford won 15-9.
On Friday September 23,
the Lady Quakers faced a
much ahrder task as they
met Western Carolina Univ
ersity and North Carolina
State in a tri-match. Guilford
faced Western Carolina's
Catamounts in the opening
match. Game 1 was close
with several long rallies.
Western Carolina rose to the
occasion, and Guilford
succombed 15-13. Game 2
was not fiercely contended
as inability to keep the service
caused the second loss, this
time 15-10.
Match 2 paired N.C. State
and Western Carolina. State
dominated the offense as it
pounded the Cats for a 15-9,
15-7 loss.
The Lady Quakers came up
against the Wolfpack for the

evening. Guilford looked
strong and the future looked
bright as the first game was
tied 10-10, however, N.C.
State turned it on and came
up with the win 15-10. As a
demoralized Quaker team
again took the floor, erratic
serve reception and inconsis
tent serves once again took
their toll as the powerful
Wolfpack offense ran over the
Quakers 15-3.
With these game,s Guilford's
new record now stands 1-2.
Next week's games are
scheduled for Tuesday Sept
ember 27 against Pembroke
and Elon at Elon, and
Thursday, September 29
against Catawba at Catawba.
On Firday September 30 the
Lady Quakers will face the
Tarheels of UNC-Chapel
Hill at 5:00 in the Alumni
gym. This is the second of
only four home matches this
year, and it will be exciting.
Don't miss it!
All in the Family
Last Wednesday's soccer
clash between Guilford and
Duke University on the
Quakers' home field seemed
like a family reunion for Brian
and Brent Oswald. While
Brian, a fullback for Guilford,
and Brent, a senior wing for
Duke, were not lined up across
from each other, they did play
against each other as the
game progressed. Family ties
did not restrict the aggressive
play of either.
"I'm looking forward to
playing duke," commented
Brian before the game. Brian
a sophomore from Abington,
Pa., continued, "but I don't
have any feeling about playing
against my brother. Once the
game starts, he's just another
player."
"We have talked about
last year's game (won by
Guilford 3-2), but we don't
dwell on it. I think he has a
lot of respect for our team,
and we certainly respect
Duke. He is captain of the
team this year, and I think he
is expecting to have a good
team."

The Guilf ordian
Soccer Season Unfolds
With three wins, one loss,
and one tie to their credit, the
Guilford College soccer team
has gotten off to a very
strong and impressive start
this season.
Two weeks ago, the Quakers
defeated East Carolina by a 4-1
margin in a highly aggressive
match, during the first round
of the Campbell College
Soccer Tournament, played in
Betews Creek, N.C. The
second round battle between
Guilford and Erskin College
saw plenty of action before
the Quakers fell, 3-1, to the
strong and nationally ranked
Erskine. Bob Propster and
Bob Lloyd, the leading scorers
for the Guilford College team,
were named to the 11-man
All-Tournament team in that
tournament.
Propster, who has six goals
and three assists in six games
for the Quakers, scored two
goals in the first round match
over ECU, and got the Quaker's
only goal in the loss to Erskine
in the finals.
Lloyd, a sophomore from
Trenton, N.J., had an un
assisted goal against the Eat
Carolina Pirates and was out
standing in both tournament
games. For the season, Lloyd
has five goals and three
assists.
Propster, a junior from
Chapel Hill, and Lloyd, were
both named to the All-Carolinas
Conference and All-NAIA
District 26 teams lat year, and
were the Quakers' leading
scorers with 29 and 16 goals,
respectively, in the 17-4
season.
"We are pleased with the

progress we have made so
far," commented Quaker
coach Ray Alley. "We are dis
appointed with the loss to
Erskine, but they have a very
strong team, which is indicated
by a narrow loss to Clemson
last year. Actually, our game
with Erskine was closer than
the score indicated. They had
a 3-0 advantage at halftime
and the third goal came on
an indirect free kick with only
four seconds left in the half.
I felt we outplayed them in
the second half, and that type
of effort continued in our
game Sunday against
Davidson.
Against Duke University,
the Quakers faced the strong
challenge of a Blue Devil
team that remembered the 3-2
overtime loss to Guilford a
year ago. Last Wednesday,
in the hard fought match
against Duke, the Quakers tied

the Blue Devils 1-1, again in
overtime. Duke scored first,
with 18 minutes gone in the
2nd half on a kick by Richard
Murray, with an assist from
Edwin Agyaploy. Guilford
then scored with five minutes
left in the game on a direct
kick by Marty Block, his first
of the year. Coach Alley
commented that he felt "the
team played very well on
defense, but was disappointed
with the offense." Sophomore
Bob Sanguinetti was credited
with 15 saves. "Bob probably
played one of his best games
ever against Duke,"
On Friday, Guilford travelled
to Catawba College where
they defeated the Indians
5-0. Tom Boutin scored his
first two goals of the year,
with Larry Davis, Marty
Block and Bob Lloyd socring
one apiece.
