Williams they have a lot of good running backs,” UNC coach Mack Brown said. “C. J.’s an outstanding foot ball player, but he’s not the only guy who can beat you on this football team.” One ofthose “other guys” is freshman quarterback Joe Hamilton, who is sec ond in the conference in passing effi ciency. Hamilton chums out 181 yards per game. Men’s soccer opens home slate still seeking first win of season BYJEFFSTENCEL STAFF WRITER A car without oil will sputter and halt, but a well-oiled automobile has the pos sibility of traveling far. UNC’s men’s soccer team hopes to be fueled up this weekend as the Tar Heels attempt to gamer their first victory of the season when they host the adidas/ Eurosport Carolina Classic at Fetzer Field. North Carolina (0-2) opens with No. 17 Portland (2-2) tonight at 7 then faces Furman (3-1) at 3 p.m. on Sunday. The Tar Heels are concentrating on improving their dramatic 3-2 overtime loss last weekend to No. 14 Clemson. UNC coach Elmar Bolowich said the focal point of this week’s practices has been eliminating miscues. ®fjp Daily (Tar Heel |Computer Services! COMPUTER RBWR & UPGRADE. BM PC. And Compatible.

'■ llllm But going against the second rated defense in the nation might cool the Jackets’ early season offensive fires. UNC offense: To this point, the West Coast offense has worked for the Tar Heels. And that’s good news for UNC, since the running game hasn’t overpow ered its opponents. QB Chris Keldorf has settled in as the starter and gameredACC Offensive Back of the Week honors for his exploits in UNC’s 27-10 win over Syracuse. The Tech defense can’t focus on one receiver, since four players have seven catches or more. L.C. Stevens and Na Brown have grabbed 18 aerials and three TDs between them. Add in Octavus Barnes, who should see more playing time on Saturday after recovering from a tom ACL, and the Jackets’ young DBs could be overwhelmed. Surprisingly, the running game hasn’t been as dominant as expected. The Syra cuse defense stuffed lead UNC rusher Leon Johnson and forced the Tar Heels to rely on the pass. Georgia Tech defense: The Yellow Jacket defenders like to come early and often at opposing offenses. Johnson & Co.’s woes might increase against the Tech defense, since the Jackets give up only 67 yards per game on the ground. The Tech ‘D’ is much like UNC’s in that “You have to learn from mis takes,” Bolowich said. “Against Clemson we made a lot of individual mistakes and col lective mistakes defensively as well as not converting on chances when we had them.” Portland, which played in lastyear’s final four, and Furman pose great challenges for the Tar Heels because both teams return virtu ally all of their starters from last season. To stop Portland, the UNC defense will have to contend with a talented trio of players in Keir Cochran, Daniel Falcone Why pay for any old notes? Get your notes from the EXPERTS...

The trio of Keith Brooking, Ron Rogers and Jimmy Gements form the core of the defense. Tech’s increased pres sure has accounted for 10 sacks and 17 pressures this year, and it will likely blitz Keldorf most of the time. The Yellow Jackets are weakest in the secondary, which boasts only two se niors. Opponents have riddled the Tech DBs for nearly 500 yards, so Keldorf might not have a difficult time connect ing with his receivers. UNC defense: Forgetbend-but-don’t break this ‘D’ won’t budge an inch. The stingy unit, which allows 137 yards of total offense per game, is second in the nation behind Florida State. LBs Brian Simmons and Kivuusama Mays and the front four have plugged up therunning lanes, soTech’srunninggame will be severely tested. Plus, the Tar Heels remember how the Jackets ran roughshod over them last year in Atlanta. “They just out-physicalled us,” UNC defensive end Greg Ellis said. The secondary was supposed to be UNC’s weak link, especially since the comerbacks had little experience. But Robert Williams and Dre’ Bly have stepped up in a big way for the Tar Heels, breaking up nine passes. Terry Billups’ return will bolster a confident group that has Tech’s receivers outmanned. Final analysis/prediction: It’s been 51 years since Georgia Tech escaped Chapel Hill with a victory. To win, Tech must establish the run and keep Keldorf in check. The Jackets have the offensive weapons to dent UNC’s defense, but so did Clemson. And Syracuse. And while the Tech linebackers have Georgia Tech tailback CJ. WILLIAMS averages 100 yards rushing per game this year. and Davide Xausa. “Both Portland and Furman are tough Div. I teams, but we believe that we are of the same caliber, and we are out to prove it," Bolowich said. UNC could also be at a disadvantage because the Tar Heels have only played two games. UNC dropped out of a tour nament in Las Vegas as punishment by the athletic department for an alcohol related incident that sent freshman Greg Danielson to the emergency room. And rain forced postponement of UNC’s home opener against Charleston Southern. The Tar Heels are led by senior All- America candidate Temoc Suarez, who had a goal and an assist against Clemson. Dimitry Drouin will tend the net, having allowed seven goals on 24 shots this season. UNC senior TEMOC SUAREZ is an All-America candidate. | Health | PSYCHOTHERAPY/ COUNSELING SERVICES Nancy Garson-Angert. Ed. M.. N.C.C.. LP.C.

Former heavy weight boxer Tommy Morrison, who is HIV positive, said today that he will return to the ring to fight one last time. Morrison will try to raise money for children with AIDS and awareness about the disease through the fight. Morrison said there is no site, no date and no opponent, but he hopes the fight occurs before the spring. Morrison said he has done extensive research and firmly believes that the vi rus cannot be transmitted in the boxing ring. “I’m not now, nor have I ever been a good role model,” Morrison said. “A lot of people are probably not going to like what I’m doing, but they will have to listen to what I have to say.” Morrison said he feels a real empathy for children with AIDS because he has seen them being rejected in their commu nities and schools. “Being rejected is more emotional than having the virus itself,” Morrison said.
