Amatuer Standing
Professional Avality

Bill Brooks began his education
and golfing career at Wake
Forest University with the idea of
playing and getting a good
education. He went out for the
golf team at Wake Forest and
succeeded, however, in a year
and a half at Wake, he did not get
to play a substantial amount.
Dissatisfied, Bill, who is from
Siler City, NC, talked to a friend
from his home town who was
going to Guilford. From these
conversations, Bill decided to
transfer to Guilford. In the fall of
1980, his first year on the golf
team here, Bill played ex
ceptionally well, making All
Conference and All District 26. In
August 1981, he qualified for the
U.S. Amateur, however he failed
to make the cut. The disap
pointment from his inability to
make the U.S. Amateur standing
affected his game in the fall. Bill
compensated for this in the
spring however, with an average
score in the mid-seventies.
Bill is also quite a scholar. He
was an NAIA Academic Ail-
American. He has 3.5 grade point
average. Dr. Herb Appenzeller,
Athletic Director, said, "He is
one of the best student-athletes
we have had at Guilford." Bill
has in the past won the NC
English Athletic-Leadership
award. Looking towards the fall
Bill thinks the golf team will be

Women's volleyball season is here once again, this year bringing
back the Lady Quaker team in a different form than that of last
season. This years squad is a much younger one comprised of five
newly recruited freshmen and seven returning veteran players.
Head coach Gayle Currie's freshmen recruits are: Kathy Ball from
Skyland, N.C., Suzanne Lowe from High Point, N.C., Kelly Carlton
from St. Petersburg, Fla., Dana Cooper from Graham, N.C., and
Melaine Bischoff from Mt. Kisco, N.Y. Currie looks to Cooper and
Lowe to provide immediate help with strong spiking. Ball and Bischoff
are needed as consistent hitters, with Ball also as a setter. Carlton will
provide strength as a spiker.
Providing leadership on the court will be returning players Sharon
Parks and Amy Parrish (co-captains), Jean Geiger, Teresa Arnold,
Teresa Bonnstetter, Kris Schoolfield, and Kim Pearson who is a junior
returning to the team after not playing her sophomore year.
Returning Champs Start Season

Coach Currie for the Lady
Quakers and also to Bonnstetter to batter the opposition with her
power serve.
Looking ahead in the season Coach Currie feels that although the
team this year is young, they have a definite chance at capturing the
conference and district titles. Even farther down the schedule is the
NAIA National Tournament. In order to qualify for the Nationals
Guilford would have to win the district and bi-district championships.
The 1982 season will provide some tough and exciting competition
for the Quakers. Guilford will be playing Lenoir-Rhyne and William
and Mary for the first time. Guilford has already chalked up one win
for the season against Catawba. The Quakers beat Catawba
September 9 with a score of 16-14, 15-5, and 15-13. Come out to the
games, see top-notch volleyball, and support our Lady Quakers.
good and that many players are
improved from last year. Coach
Jack Jensen said of Bill, "He has
proven in the past two years that
he can play at any school in the
state." The best of luck to Bill as
he furthers his coifing career.
In 1982, Bill qualified for ttie
U.S. Amateur again by placing
second out of a field of 108 and
was further distinguished by
being the only player to make the
field two years in a row. Bill shot
back to back 70's, however, he
barely missed being cut a second
time which he attributes to the
result of bad putting. When asked
about his feeling about playing
against his old school, Wake
Forest, Bill replied, "I don't like
them. I didn't get a fair chance to
play while I was there," which
suggests a personal as well as
professional rivalry.
Fall Blazes With Soccer Games
The Guilford soccer team opened its season Monday, Sept. 5, clob
bering Cawtawba College 6-0. The defensive cake was iced when after
twenty-minutes of fruitless offensive efforts, freshman Steve Rubens
tein hammered the lower corner with a left-footed blast. Minutes later,
Roberta Sa, the recruited freshman striker from Brazil, rocketed one
home from the eighteen.
Sa tallied a hat-trick by adding another two in the second half. David
Hood and David Tunney, two of the tri-captains, and all-conference
and all-NAIA District 26 players last year, netted the other goals.
The tide changed however on Wednesday when the previously
outstanding defense was caught flat by the transuding offense of UNC-
G. The sluggish, shut-down Guilford team allowed five goals in the
first half. Coach Ray Alley summed it up: "The teams performance
stunk; we didn't go to the ball and we lost the fifty-fifty's." The dif
ference between the first half and the second half, he added, was that
"we moved to the ball and gained possession more often."
The second half was almost a different game, as the Quakers netted
two and shut-out their opponent. Hood's infamous world class free
kick, found its' mark from twenty-two yards: Sa scored on a penalty
shot.
Since UNC-G is currently ranked third nationally in Division 111
NCAA, one might exclude Guilford from such recognition. On the con
trary the implication of their performance and the 3-1 victory against
eighth ranked Averett College is far-reaching.
An impressive game by sophmore goal-keeper Ken Goldwasser
secured the defense, while tri-captain Chris Macßrien, T.J. Faherty,
and freshmen Mile Jeglinski, turned the ball over at mid-field
resulting in over thirty shots on goal. Jeff Polenchock placed a Faher
ty pass into the back of the net; Hood had already equalized with
another blazing free-kick; Paul Gurspan headed home a Jeglinski
cross.
The Quakers will need to prove themselves again and again as they
have a tough schedule, playing two more teams ranked in the top 15 in
Division 111, as well as four teams in Division I: UNC, N.C. State,
Wake Forest and East Carolina. The outcome in these games,
however, is less important than their conference matches in the NAIA.
Although Guilford lost 2-0 to Atlantic Christian in the first round of
the Conference playoffs last year, the crown could be theirs if they
continue to play as they did on Sunday.
