WAKE FOREST from page Bl own. The confrontation wasn't settled until the final minutes of the game when Wake Forest eeked out a 56-52 victory. UNC-Wilmington, which plays in the shadow of many of its in-state Division I big broth ^^1 Photo by Bruce Chapman Robert O'KoUy Tony Kurtond goo* to tho botkot ers, didn't go quietly into the night. Instead they went toe to toe with the Deacons before Wake Forest finally delivered the knockout punch. Tony Rutland, Wak;e Forest's senior leader, scored 19 points to lead the way and backcourt mate O'Kelly added 17 to help the Deacons to advance. Wake Forest's youth move Photo by Bruce Chapman ment was again put to the test. While the back court starters supplied 36 points, the fresh men in the front court didn't hold up their end. Consequently the Deacons had to resort to a perimeter game. To live and die by the outside shot puts a strain on the team. Pholo by Bruce Chapman Niki Arinxm dunks in fwo for Woko. That was evidenced in the ACC Tournament against Clemson and during the regular season against North Carolina. In those games. Wake got its outside bombs to fall in the first half but couldn't sustain it after intermis sion and lost. Against UNC-W, the Deacons were able to get into a slower tempo and the guard play of the Deacons pushed them over the top. The victory allowed Wake to earn a berth in the second round of the NIT, where the Deacons took on Vanderbilt at the LJVM on Iuesday (Marcn I/). That game, played after The Chronicle's deadline, featured teams with similiar identities. The Commodores finished the season 19-12. They, like the Deacons, had hopes of playing in the NCAA Tournament but strug gled down the stretch. Vanderbiit won only four of its final 12 games and was eliminated from NCAA consideration. But the team brought a talent ed roster into Joel Coliseum for the game. Vanderbiit defeated St. Bonaventure 73-61 in the first round of the NIT. BRAD ALBERT from page Bl set the tone for the newcomers and that makes Albert enthusiastic about the team's chances this sea son. "We just didn't hit the ball like we wanted to against Tabor," Albert said. "They threw a good Coach Brad Albert, a for ?MAO MlfollAP iIBA KAA|AO SO mer piicncr tor mc cu^icS/ it bock at homo as the junior varsity baseball coach. pitcher at ua We made *omc errors and just didn't hit the ball," Michael Idol, who started on the mound for the Eagles,, got off to a shaky start and was eventually replaced by Paul Barrow. East managed only four hits. Kyle Iddings, blasted a solo homer and catcher Luke Smith had a two-out single that scored a run. East evened its record at 1-1 the following day when it defeated Watauga 5-3. In that game, the Eagles jumped out to a 5-0 lead and then held on for the win. Matt Landfair, a sophomore southpaw, started on the mound for the Eagles and held Watauga scoreless through five innings. Jason Walters, a freshman, closed for the Eagles and allowed three runs. Albert said that game might, have been a better indication of his; team's talent, although he wasn't thrilled by its effort. "I'm really expecting good; things," he said. "The first two games we haven't been hitting tfe ball like we want." In addition to having veteran; players, Albert said he also has; capable assistants on his staff^ They include Chad Laughlin, ?C community coach, who has with the program for several year!,; and Chris Gaskill, a former foot-* ball player at Wake Forest, whd d doing his student teaching at Bait; Forsyth. "I'm very lucky to have twys assistant coaches," he said. "Somif coaches on the junior varsity krv$; are out there by themselves. CARVER from page Bl "What can you say," Holt said. "Despite all that happened, we still had a layup right there at the end. What else can you ask for. "We had a timeout left, but anytime you have confusion you want to push the ball down court and we got a good look down the seam." s, Carver kept the huge Golds boro crowd out of the game until the final minutes. The Yellowjack ets fell behind 0-2 in the opening 15 seconds, but didn't trail again until the 1:40 mark of the fourth quar ter. The Yellowjackets reeled off nine unanswered points to open up a 9-2 lead on Rashad Davis' tradi tional three-point play with 5:39 left in the first quarter. Carver would have blown the game open had it been able to make its field goals. But the Yel lowjackets made only one of five the rest of the quarter. Meanwhile Goldsboro made four of eight to close to 11-10 at the end of the period. Antoine Barnes, who missed most of the first quarter with a dis located finger, gave Carver a spark at the start of the second quarter and Carver increased its lead to 15 10 at the 6:04 mark. The Yellowjackets limited the Cougars to only three field goals in the second quarter and took a 27 17 lead at the half. Nelson and Keegan Haggins supplied the bulk of the offense to help Carver to its lead. Behind the play of Charles Dearmon and Barnes, Carver got its lead up to 30-19 in the opening minutes of the third quarter, but Goldsboro finally got untracked and made a run of its own to cut the gap to 33-31 with 2:48 to play. But Carver was up to the chal lenge and pushed its lead back to six, 42-37 at the end of three quar ters. The Cougars', playing only about 30 minutes from home, final ly got their big crowd involved in the game. The key blow was a 3 pointer by Angelo Maddox with 5:31 to play. Tliat cut the Carver lead from six points to three, 47-44. Dearmon took charge for Carver, scoring the team's next six points over three minutes. But the Yellowjackets didn't take advan tage of their free throw opportuni ties and the Cougars closed to one, 53-52. The Yellowjackets couldn't extend their lead on their next pos session. David Hairston missed both attempts from the free throw line and Bryant scored on a clear out to give the Cougars the lead, 54-53. Senior leadership by Dearmon, Nelson and Barnes paid off for Carver. The Yellowjackets matched Goldsboro on the next three possessions. But a layup and free throw by Bryant allowed Goldsboro to get the upper hand. Dearmon scored at the 1:01 mark to knot the score at 57-57. Goldsboro came right back with a basket by Chris Tann. Carver answered when Barnes scored at the 29 second mark. Goldsboro held the ball until the 19.9 mark to set up a final shot. The Cougars again cleared a side for Bryant and the 5-10 junior found a seam, penetrated and con- r nected on a left-handed layup to give his team a 61-59 lead with six second showing on the clock. In the confusion, Carver in bounded the ball to Braham who took the ball the length of the court and rushed up a layup from the left side of the lane. The ball rolled off just as the buzzer sound ed. Holt said his team made a strong run in the playoffs and acquitted itself well after a sluggish start. .t "I felt all along that this team had been waiting for the playoffs," Holt said. "Once our backs were to the wall we banded together and started to play much better. We don't have anything to hang our heads about. We won nine straight games to get here." Dearmon and Barnes led the Yellowjackets in scoring. Dearmon scored 17 points on seven of 12 shooting. Barnes had IS on seven of nine shooting from the field and had a team-high seven rebounds. Nelson scored eight points, Davis had six and Haggins added five. Carver held a 24-22 rebounding advantage. The Yellowjackets also forced 11 turnovers and gave up only six. Goldsboro had the advantage in field goal shooting. The Cougars made 25 of 39 shots (64 percent) and Carver was 22 of 37 (59 percent). "The thing that ^yeryone told us that we talked to was how well Goldsboro shot the ball," Holt said. "I thought we did a great job on them in the first half (when Goldsboro made only eight of 20 shots). But in the second half, they made some outstanding plays (making 17 of 19 shots from the field). LOCAL FOLKS from page Bl the Cougars had a large, vocal crowd. But the impressive part was the fact that people from the communi ty came out to support the team. Not only that, but they were all on one accord. Goldsboro trailed throughout the game, but there were no com ments directed at the coach, the players or the team's strategy. And when the team needed their fans most, the fans came to the team's rescue. When they scored down the stretch run of the game, the noise of the fans made it nearly impossi ble to hear anything in the gym. Perhaps that contributed to the Cougars' unconscious shooting. The players on the court looked like they could feel the warmth and support of the crowd and reacted in kind by making all of their final eight shots. The shots they made weren't easy. Most came with one or two Carver defenders draped all over the shooters. When the game was dver, the fans stormed the court and cele brated like they had already won the state championship. It was indeed something to behold. But it really came as no sur prise. The fans stayed behind their coach and team. They attempted to get the team going on several occa sions. But Carver's defense took them out of the game. However, they didn't give up. Even when they trailed by 10 points they still kept cheering and trying to make an impact on the game. There are some lessons that can be learned locally by taking a clear, objective look at the situation. Coaches need to have the sup port of everyone at their schools, along with that of the community. It brings honor to the schools and communities when a team is able to represent it on the state-wide level. In a time when all the negatives that happen in our society are being pointed out, the youth need to be appreciated when they make posi tive contributions. That includes the sports arena, where emotions run so high. J TBS FASHIONS ENGRAVING| TROPHIES, ACRYLIC AWARDS, PLAQUES, RIBBONS, ETC. i4bo, Awards With "Acrocentric" Designs -; A 1001 S.
