Wrestling team wins 2 in span of 7 hours By Justin Scheef Staff Writer DURHAM The UNC wrestling team went 2-0 Tuesday as it defeated Liberty at Carmichael Auditorium 26- 21 and then took a five-hour break before pasting Duke 37-6 at Cameron Indoor Stadium. The Tar Heels upped their record to 12-5 on the season and 5-1 in the ACC. Theevening win also guaranteed UNC at least a share of the ACC regular season crown. “We were trying to get ready for the tournament,” UNC coach Bill Lam said. “It adds a lot more pressure.” Jeff Vasquez opened the match against Duke (4-7,0-3) with a major decision over Scott Graham 12-4 in the 118-pound division. Duke rebut ted with a late win by Lenny LoCastro over Ross laci 4-1 at 126 to make the score 4-3. But that was as close as the Blue Devils would get. UNC responded with three straight falls at 134,142and 150 to push its lead to 22-3. Jared Ezzell started the pin-a-thon by putting Scott Frinizi’s back to the mat at 1:52 of the first period. T J. Jaworsky then put Keith Pavlick in a parlyzing hold for a pin at 2:06 of the first period. Pavlick was ahead at the time, but the Tar Heel sophomore star was able to up his record to 30-1.

UNC 26 LIBERTY 21 UNC 37 DUKE 6 Dave Leonardis capped off the streak with a pin of Duke's Gary Barnhart with 2:44 left in the first. The Tar Heels, however, continued to dominate as Mike Chase defeated Dan Goffredo at 158,5-4. Duke got its last points of the evening with a 9-4 win by Craig Girvan over UNC’s Marc Taylor at 167. UNC rebounded with three straight wins in the 177,190 and heavyweight weightclasses, with Stan Banks, wres tling for the second time Tuesday, Damon Michelson and Rick Hall earn ing wins. Before the Tar Heels spanked the Blue Devils in Durham, they defeated Liberty at home, 26-21. UNC’s Vasquez defeated Tri Nguyen 25-9 at 118 for the first of his two wins on the day. After the two Liberty forfeits, Josh Hackett of the Flames beat Travis Lam 11-8 at 142. At 150, Josh Miller won a major decision over Liberty’s Matt Stacey 18-5. UNC’s Banks had three near falls in defeating Aaron Sarra of Lib erty for a 20-5 win at 190. Recall issues would demonstrate their concern by voting at next week’s meeting to amend the recall bill. “I think this is an opportunity for the council to show its commitment to being a university town,” he said. Ose said it was hypocritical for town leaders to expect students to be active in local politics if they were denied their basic rights. “They can’t expect citizens to navigate the way unless government makes a good-faith effort to lead,” Ose said. “A noble experiment designed to increase political in volvement among the young will be irreparably harmed if elections are not specifically prohibited from being held in the summer,” he added. Chilton said he was unsure about the positions of other council members on precluding summer recalls. He added that Capowski was the only council member who had been an outspoken critic of his proposal.

State thwarts UNC comeback Poor shooting, inspired Reynolds crowd do in Tar Heels By Stewart Chisam Senior Writer RALEIGH Put Danyel in her Reynolds Coliseum den and read the handwriting on the wall: Damn Lions, Terrapins or Tar Heels; the N.C. State Wolfpack will have a chance to pull off the win. Such was the case Tuesday night as the Wolfpack’s Danyel Parker popped in four points in the final 32.8 seconds to seal a 60-55 win against No. 14 North Carolina before 3,200 State fans, some of whom rushed the court after the win. The N.C. State victory' marked the second straight upset for the Wolfpack, who also defeated then-No. 9 Maryland 74-72 Saturday. The Wolfpack, 1-9 on the road and 6-6 in the ACC, have played Dr. Jekyl and Ms. Hyde when returning back to Reynolds, where N.C. State has pulled off 11 of 12 games before a rowdy, roaring and basketball loving crowd. “The crowd’s just been great,” said N.C. State head coach Kay Yow. “It’s just fun to have all the noise. It brings your game to another level.” For North Carolina, the crowd was notafactor—the Tar Heels, now 19-4, 9-4 and tied for second in the ACC, often appeared tired, sluggish and not ready to play. “We didn’t play with our hearts,” UNC’s Charlotte Smith said. “We lacked the desire to do our best.” from page 1 : ?

State fighting a UNC comeback scrapped hardest for a number of loose balls that eventually decided the game. The most important loose-ball grab came around the 35-second mark, shortly after Tonya Sampson’s baseline drive gave UNC a 55-54 lead its first since the 10:05 mark of the first half. After driving the ball downcourt, Parkerplowed into the lane, where Smith fouled her, sending Parker to the line for a one-and-one. Parker missed the front end, but All-ACC performer Tammy Gibson grabbed the rebound. Gibson missed her six-footer and the ball came to the ground untouched. Parker found the loose ball, and bounced it off the glass for what proved the decisive score. UNC still had a chance to win, but couldn’t seem to execute its comeback plan. The Wolfpack, meanwhile, iced the game with free throws. “I felt like we did not play smart at the end of the game,” said UNC head coach Sylvia Hatchell. “We need to Not everybody loves Chapel Hill Tigers haven’t won here ever By Bryan Strickland Senior Writer Call them the road woe-iors. Thirty-eight times, the Clemson Ti gers have traveled to Chapel Hill for a men’s basketball game. Thirty-eight times, they’ve returned home losers* And the Tigers’ road woes don’t be gin andend in Chapel Hill. Clemson has dropped 36 of its last 38 ACC contests away from Littlejohn Coliseum. But the Tigers (12-8 overall, 2-8 in the ACC) did win their most recent ACC road contest, an 83-80 victory at Georgia Tech Feb. 4. That rare road triumph removed the Tigers from a tie at the bottom of the conference stand ings with Maryland and N.C. State. Tonight at 7 p.m., Clemson will take its 39th shot at picking up a win in Chapel Hill. Third-ranked North Caro lina (20-3,9-2) leads the overall series with the Tigers 93-13. Not only has Clemson failed tokruyk off the Tar Heels in Chapel Hill Tigers have generally failed to keep the games even close to competitive. The Tigers’ average loss margin at UNC is 19.3 points, and they haven’t lost in Chapel Hill by less than 10 points since 1982 oddly, the year the Tar Heels last won a national championship. If the Tigers are to keep this one close, center Sharone Wright will have to turn in a better performance than he did in Clemson’s 82-72 loss to the Tar Heels at Littlejohn Jan. 16. In that one, Wright fouled out early in the second half, scoring only two points and grab bing just five rebounds. That’s a far cry from the super sophomore’s normal showing. Wright is averaging 13.9 points, 9.9 rebounds and 4.15 blocks per game. Wright’s block total ranks second in the nation— his career blocks-per-game average is third in ACC history. Sophomore Devin Gray and junior Jeff Brown flank Wright on a tough Tiger frontline. Gray leads Clemson in scoring, putting down 16.8 points per contest. Brown has been forced into a starting assignment the last three games because of an injury to Tiger big man Kevin Hines. Brown has performed admirably, averaging 9.1 ppg. With Eric Montross, George Lynch and Cos. posing inside problems for the Tigers, rebounding will be a key to Clemson’s upset bid. The Tigers have struggled in the rebounding column of late in fact, they haven’t out-re bounded an oppenent in 11 games. Lynch (15.4 ppg, 9.5 rpg) and Montross (15.1 ppg, 7.8 rpg) pace the North Carolina frontcourt. Brian Reese, the Tar Heels’ other likely starter, is scoring 9.9 ppg.

State, however, appeared closer to reaching its potential as the squad traditionally the Parker-Gibson show —diversified its offense and opened up the game down low, where the Tar Heels appeared to have an advantage. The Wolfpacks’ inside game flour ished most in the first half when 6-foot -5 senior Teri Whyte exploded for six c ; State’s first eight points and 10 of its first 17 while holdingUNC’s6-5 Sylvia Crawley to six first-half points. “Sylvia talks a lot of trash on the court,” Whyte said. "So it’s sort of fun to just to sort of take it to her, and then she takes it back to me.” Crawley started to really take it to Whyte at the beginning of the second half, scoring eight quick points early before foul trouble sidelined her. Smith then began to pick up the slack for the Tar Heels, eventually bringing them from a seven-point halftime deficit to within a rebound of victory. After being held scoreless until the second half’s 12:41 mark, Smith took over offensively, finishing with 12 points, 11 rebounds and three assists. Foul trouble plagued the Tar Heels throughout as Sampson sat out much of tures one of the best rebounding guards around in junior shooting guard Andre Bovain. Also noted for his tenacious man-to-man defense, Bovain pulls down an impressive 4.6 rebounds per game. He’s also been an outstanding ballhandler of late, committing just two turnovers in his last 100 minutes of play. Bovain is joined in the backcourt by senior point guard Chris Whitney, a solid 3-point shooter who is averging 14.8 points and 6.1 assists per game. J Wednesday, 7 p.m., WRAL TV 5 Smith Center, Chapel Hill IB In the first meeting ot the season with Clemson, UNC point guard Derrick Phelps had more turnovers (3) than O assists (2). Tiger print man Chris Whitney outperformed IQiJr Phelps last time out (17 points). Henrik Rodl has quietly j; established himself as UNC’s second-best 3-point shooter 38 percent), but he’s only attempted 50 long-range shots. TBForward Kevin Hines suffered a head injury in Clemson’s win at Georgia Tech Feb. 4- His absence will hurt the O . Tigers. Still, starters Sharone Wright, Devin Gray and Z Jeff Brown combine for 39.8 points and 17.5 boards per 33 game. Tar Heel starters Eric Montross, George Lynch P and Brian Reese account for 40.4 ppg and 19.8 rpg. ■ Injuries have forced Clemson to improve its depth. Center Wayne Buckingham is the main threat off the bench (6.6 O PPB m ACC contests), and guard Lou Richie has provided Z some good defensive pressure. The UNC bench is loaded: S Donald Williams (13.8 ppg) would start for anyone else, |P and Ed Geth would be a quality sixth man at N.C. State.
