Staff Report
North Carolina will host the men’s
and women’s ACC Cross Country
Championships on Monday at Finley
Golf Course.
Competition on UNC’s new course
will begin at 10 a.m.
The North Carolina women, who fin
ished second in the ACC last year en
route to placing 18th in the nation, will
enter their race ranked No. 6 in the
country after moving up 10 places since
the last national poll.
The Tar Heels placed fourth in the
NCAA Preview race two weeks ago in
Bloomington, Ind, defeating several
teams that were ranked higher than
them at the time. Senior tri-captain Trish
Nervo was UNC’s top finisher in the
race.
The Tar Heels should get plenty of
competition Monday from No. 10 N.C.
State, which has won the past four con
ference titles, and 19th-ranked Wake
Forest.
The Wolfpack has also excelled on
the men’s side throughout the decade.
Like the ’Pack women, the N.C. State
men have also won four consecutive
ACC titles. No other cross country pro
gram has ever won ACC titles in men’s
and women’s competition in the same
year.
The Wolfpack men enter the race
ranked No. 3 in the nation behind
Arkansas and Stanford.
The men’s squad for North Carolina
is much less experienced than most
other teams in the conference. Many of
the runners will be taking part in the
first ACC Championships race of their
careers.

they learned the reason for the untime
ly TO was to honor Smith’s I,oooth
career kill.
But after the match Smith down
played her milestone achievement
“I’d rather have an ACC ring than a
1,000 kills, but it’s a good feeling,” Smith
said.
UNC coach Joe Sagula said he was
thrilled with the team’s 3-1 dismissal of
N.C. State and was the first to laud
Smith’s accomplishment.

UNC Looks to Stop Paladins
Game and time: Furman vs. North
Carolina. Kickoff is at 1:30 p.m.
Site: Kenan Stadium.
TV/radio: The Tar Heel Sports
Network will provide live radio cover
age; its flagship station is WCHL 1360-
AM. The game will not be televised.
Records: Furman is 6-1, 5-0 in
Southern Conference. North Carolina is
1-6,0-5 in the ACC.
Series: UNC leads 4-0, including a
28-0 win against Furman in 1992.
Personnel: Furman - No injuries
reported. UNC - QB Ronald Curry
(Achilles) and LB Brandon Spoon
(biceps) are out for the season. C Adam
Metts (ankle), CB Anthony Anderson
(concussion), WR Danny Davis (con
cussion) and S Quinton Savage (sick) are
out. QB Antwon Black (flu) is doubtful.
The key matchup: Paladins running
back Louis Ivory is one of the best backs
in Division I-AA that you’ve never heard
of. But if UNC doesn’t at least contain the
5-foot-8, 193-pound Ivory, who is aver
aging 131.4 rushing yards per game this
season, chances are you’ll hear a lot from
the Fort Valley, Ga., native on Saturday.
Ivory, a sophomore, is the 12th-best
running back in Division I-AA and
needs 80 yards to reach 1,000 for the
season. He rushed for a season-high 203
yards last week against East Tennessee
State and leads the team in touchdowns
with 10.
“(Ivory) is one of the better running
backs we’ll face this year,” UNC coach
“I was real excited for her,” Sagula
said. “We just wanted to be real aggres
sive, and she performed really well.
She’s hitting the ball real hard right
now.”
But Smith wasn’t the only intimidat
ing presence on an imposing UNC side.
Tori Seibert recorded 22 kills, while
Casey Simpson contributed 18. Seibert
recorded her 1,000 kill last season as a
junior.
Though the individual performances
were impressive, the No. 25 Tar Heels
were not graceful on their way to victo
ry. The match was marred by sideouts,
and UNC struggled to string together
points.
After breezing through the first game
with a score of 15-3, North Carolina let
up and lost the second game 15-12.
In the poorly played second game,
the Tar Heels went through a stretch in
which they could only muster eight
points in 38 sideouts.
“Serving is one of our biggest
strengths. We do a great job with it, and
at times it’s our Achilles (heel),” Sagula
said. “We know that. We have to keep
working on that, and it’s a matter of just
being really focused.”
Fortunately for the Tar Heels, the
problem did not cost them the match as
UNC was able to take the next two
games.
After beating the Wolfpack 15-4 in
the third game, the Tar Heels ratded off
four consecutive points at the end of the r
final game to take the match.

Carl Torbush said.
“I’ve got a great
deal of respect for
Furman. They’re a
good, solid defen
sive football
team.”
UNC’s defense,
meanwhile, would
probably have
trouble stopping
some of the best
high school run
ning backs this
year, let alone
Ivory.
Out of the 114
Quarterback
Luke Huard
will start against
Furman on Saturday
for the Tar Heels
at Kenan Stadium.
Division I-A schools, 102 of them
(including such juggernauts as Arkansas
State, Temple and UTEP) have a better
rushing defense than the Tar Heels, who
give up 220 rushing yards per game.
Last week, Maryland’s LaMont
Jordan ran for 147 yards in three quar
ters of action against UNC, and the
Terrapins tacked on 268 total yards on
the ground (the most the Tar Heels have
allowed this year) in their 45-7 romp.
“I don’t want to say (the Tar Heels
are) soft or anything, but throughout the
week we watched them on film and
noticed they didn’t play the run too
well,” Terp fullback Matt Kalapinski
said. “We emphasized in practice to try
to go right at them, hit them hard and
run (isolation plays) at them - you
know, power football.”

Final analysis/prediction: For the
Tar Heels to get their first home win of
the season, they’ll have to accomplish
two goals they’ve failed to achieve this
year with any consistency: stopping the
run and moving the ball through the air.
Since Ronald Curry ruptured an
Achilles tendon against Georgia Tech on
Oct. 9, quarterbacks Luke Huard and
Antwon Black have had a better chance
at winning the lottery than finding open
receivers, combining for a measly 265
passing yards in three games.
“I base everything we do on improve
ment, and especially with a young foot
ball team you should see improvement,”
Torbush said. “And I do not feel that
we’ve improved the last two weeks. A
lot of that has to do with certain plays,
but we’ve not been able to make the
plays that we need to make to give our
selves a chance to win. ”
But this will be a “snap-out-of-it”
game, where, for one of the few times
this season, UNC will execute like it
actually has a playbook.
Although the Paladins, who have
won six consecutive games after drop
ping their season opener, have momen
tum on their side, look for UNC to run
the ball effectively past Furman’s
mediocre rush defense (180.1 yards per
game) and give the few Kenan faithful
that show up something to go home
happy about.
UNC 28, Furman 24
