6 The Deify Tar Heel Wttestdsy, April 18, 1S73 Robin Glark1 Officials say nto msitioegil for gymminiastt Teresa Trice, a member of the UNC Women's gymnastics team, qualified regionally for a chance to compete in the national gymnastics championships,, which were held recently in Haywood, Calif, by the Association of Intercollegiate Athletics for Women: (A1AW). But Trice was then told that she could not make the trip. - ' According to Coach Ken Ourso and Francis Hogan, UNC women's athletic director, the gymnastics team originally planned to send Trice and teammate Joan Healy to represent UNC at the national meet. Then, when a scoring error in the qualifying round was discovered, disqualifying Healy, the decision was made not to send Trice either. Trice said that at the time Ourso refused to tell her who made the decision about not going. She said he also told her it was "none of her business". Ourso said recently, however, that he and Hogan made the decision together. Whoever made the decision to first promise and then ' deny Trice the opportunity to challenge first-rate college ' gymnasts in national competition, both Ourso and Hogan now defend the position by saying that Trice is only a freshman the logic being that she has three more years to compete, and that she probably wouldn't have done well this year anyway. That justification has been a small consolation to Trice, who said the fact that she worked hard enough to qualify was reason enough to send her. "It just seems like not Sports analysis letting us go to the nationals when we do well really ruins the incentive," Trice said. Whether or not a coach or an athletic director has an obligation to send qualified athletes on to higher competition is an important question. And it is a topic that both Ourso and Hogan wouldn't address. There is also a question of consistency. Vicki Greenwood, who is also only a freshman with three more years of comeptition, qualified and was sent to the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) field hockey nationals in Chicago in November. Asked to explain the difference, Hogan said that Greenwood had been "selected" by the NCAA for the field hockey nationals, and that Trice had only "qualified for" the gymnastics nationals. Ourso and Hogan also pointed out that it is expensive to transport only one girl and one coach all the way across the country. But Moyer Smith, UNC Assistant athletic director in charge of finances, said he was never approached for the money. In fact. Smith said that he was "very receptive to the idea when it first came up," but that neither Ourso nor Hogan ever formally asked the athletic department to pay for the trip. When asked to explain, H ogan said, "1 don't know why you're trying to make such a big deal out of this." The deal is this: If an athlete qualifies for post-season competition, will his or her participation still be contingent on what appears as arbitrary approval by athletic officials? Who is to decide which post-season qualifiers should be allowed to go on and which ones must stay at home? - Sports briefs Cheerleaders named' I force ACC cMmeioehiiD set this week three of .the top five spring sports, championships in the Atlantic Coast Conference will be determined this week.

The University of North Carolina, whose 1974-75 cheer-leading squad was rated the third best in America, has chosen its new unit for the upcoming school year.

Three graduating seniors David Belton, John Elam and Maria Morris made the All-America team. Walter Rabb, "The Old Leaguer" at the University of North Carolina, ranks 13th among the nation's top 20 coaches, according to a survey conducted by; Southeastern Conference Baseball: News. Rabb came into this season, his 29th: at the Tar Heel helm, with an overall; record of 474 wins, 289 losses and nine; ties for a winning percentage of .621. His: current Carolina team has a 15-15 record. The top 20 active major college, coaches were researched and then listed : in order of their winning percentage. A minimum of 280 victories was required to make the 1975 list. The leader is Gene Shell of Tulsa with 283 victories and only 76 losses in nine years of coaching for a percentage of .789. Shell barely nosed out Southern Cal's Rod DeDeaux who has won 817 and lost 248 in 27 years for a percentage of .767. Carolina's jayvee baseball team raised its record to 7-7 last week by capturing three games in a pair of doubleheaders. Aggressive baserunning was the key as the Tar Babies swiped 30 bases in the four games. On Tuesday, Carolina captured a 2-1 win over Winston-Salem Reynolds High School, but dropped a 10-8 game to Louisburg College. Wednesday saw the Tar Babies grab a pair from Ferrum Junior College, 12-10 and 10-6. The UNC women's lacrosse club will play its first match ever today against Duke at 4 p.m. on Navy Field.

The unlikely site for the affair is Greenville, N.C, where the East Carolina University (ECU) hockey club will host the four-team tournament. Other than UNC and ECU, a similar organization from Duke will participate, along with a team of rink rats irom Greensboro, who call themselves the Greensboro All Stars. On Friday, UNC will play Duke and ECU will tangle with Greensboro. The two .winners will battle Saturday for tournament honors, with losers playing in a consolation. Still young, the UNC club was hastily formed in late January of this year and took to the ice one month later, almost to the day. Led by club president and acting coach Lloyd Scher, the club raised enough money to get the necessary equipment, and travel to Charlotte to play two games against teams from the Charlotte Senior League. UNC emerged from that weekend affair in February with a win and a loss. It took a first game 1-0, but lost the second 6-5, after blowing a 5-2 lead. The club has not had a real practice session due to lack of ice facilities in the area. However, it has managed to get to Greensboro (nearest available ice) for some limited workouts.
