Thursday, March 31. 1977 The Daily Tar Heel 7
By KEVIN BARKIS
Stiff Writer
Carolina's women netters snapped out of a
three-match losing streak and handed
highly-touted Virginia a 5-4 loss Tuesday in
Charlottesville.
The Tar Heels had lost matches to Yale.
Princeton and Florida in an exhibition
match before running into a Wahoo team
which had beaten them 5-4 last fall. In
Charlottesville, however, UNC beat its old
nemesis, the three-set match, taking three of
Women in Furman golf
UNC's women's golf team will try to
bounce back this weekend from its
disappointing second place finish in the
Duke Invitational last week. The team will
compete in Furman's star-studded Lady
Paladin Invitational in Greenville, S.C.
Led by Stephanie Kornegay and Sue
Cary, the Tar Heels enter the three-round
tournament that features top woman
amateur Nancy Lopez of Tulsa and
Furman's Beth Daniel, already a big
individual winner in collegiate play this
spring.
Aside from Kornegay and Cary, low
scorers for the Heels in the Duke
Invitational, Coach Gunnells will be
depending on Sally Austin, Mindy Moore
and Bonne Belle to turn in topnotch
performances on the 5731-yard course to
give UNC a high finish.
them from the stunned UVa squad.
Carolina sophomore Susie Black won her
first singles match of the spring season by
beating Wahoo star Cindy Brinker 7-5, 6-7
(5-2), 7-5. Nina Cloaninger, Lisa Dodson
and Hunter Dortch also took singles
victories for the Heels, giving them a
commanding 4-2 advantage going into the
doubles competition.
UNC got the match clincher when Dortch
teamed with Rebecca Garcia for a three-set
win on the second doubles court. Virginia
took the other doubles matches to pull
within the final score of 5-4.
UNC Coach Kitty Harrison said the
victory was the best thing that could happen
to the team at this point in the season. "It
restored total confidence in their abilities,"
she said. "Where there were little doubts,
they erased them.
"It proved to them they can do it under
stress," she said. "They needed confidence
restoration, and they got it. And they did it
themselves."

Gary Taxman and Jon Kraut pulled out a
win in the No. 3 doubles Tuesday night to
give undefeated North Carolina a 5-4 men's
tennis victory over Clemson in the Jervey
Athletic Center at Clemson, S.C. ,
Carolina, 14-0 overall and 1-0 in the
Atlantic Coast Conference, was rained out
of its scheduled match Wednesday at
Davidson. Today, the Tar Heels host N.C.
State in an important ACC match at 2 p.m.
on the Country Club Road courts.
The Clemson match, which was played on
the Tigers' two indoor courts, took over six
hours to complete because of the limited
number of courts. It was the first time
Carolina either has played or has practiced
indoors all season. ,
After taking the singles 4-2. the Tar Heels
lost the first two doubles matched played.

Women fencers in national finals
Four of Carolina's women fencers will
be in Harrisonburg. Va., today through
Saturday for the NCAA Women's
National Fencing Tournament.
Garney Ingram. Anne Nipper, Kathi
Kronenfeld and Cathy Swan will
represent the Tar Heels in the finals at
Madison College. Linda Gaston and
Robin Cooke will make the trip as
alternates.
The first two days will feature team
competition. Quarterfinals in individual
competition begin Saturday. The first
eight finishers in the tourney become All
America, the top four on the first team
and the others on the second team.
Two years ago UNC finished eighth,
but last year it dropped to 22nd. Fencing
coach Ron Miller thinks his team will
show marked improvement this time
around.
"The top 10 is our goal, and 1 think we
should be in the top 15." he said. "We do
have the potential to make the top 10, but
we would have to fence very well to do it."
KKN ROBERTS
Rabb encouraged by Tar Heels' improvement
By PETE MITCHELL
Staff Writer
A coach likes to see that big canvas
tarpaulin rolled over the infield and puddles
gather in the batters' bortes when his team is
down by a dozen in the fourth inning or
possibly when his starting pitcher really does
need an extra day of rest.
But not when his team has won six out of
its last seven and is trying to keep sharp for
upcoming conference opponents, not to
mention the New York Yankees."
Nonetheless, it was a saturated sight at
Cary Boshamer Stadium Wednesday
afternoon. Instead of suiting up to lead his
squad against the invading Spiders of
Richmond University, Carolina baseball
coach Walter Rabb was confined to the
clubhouse, chewin' a little tobacco and
. talkin about his 31st and final UNC team.
"I'm encouraged with the way we've
played of late," Rabb said of his team's
improvement from a 7-8 record to its present
13-9 ledger. "They're learning to play
together, and they're showing determination
to come from behind."
Looking over the boxscores, the Tar Heels
haye been able to get men on base, but until
recently, they've also been notorious for
standing them on the base paths.
"The key hit, the clutch play just hasn't
been there this spring," Rabb said. "I bet we
could've won at least five more ballgames
this year already if a few of those had
dropped in."
The Tar Heels big RBI men, namely,
Bernie Menapace, Randy Warrick, Rick
Alexander and Steve Coats are just starting
to hit and hit when it counts.
Menapace won the N.C. State game;
Warrick went 4-for-4 in the recent contest at
Duke; Alexander has been stinging the
ball but right at someone and Coats
parked two over the fence to lead the
important sweep over South Carolina last
week.

is second in RBIs for Carolina with 12 and drove in three runs
against Elon.
"Before that, the people getting on base
weren't the ones who run and makes things
happen," UNC assistant Mike Roberts
added.
Carolina speedsters Menapace. Jim
Atkinson, PJvGay, Jim Rouse and Kevin
Haeberle haven't had their base stealing
ability taken advantage of as the coaches had
planned.
"At first they weren't getting on base
enough," Rabb pointed out, "and once they
did, it seemed like we were always behind
and didn't want to try to steal."
"The mound staff, without the graduated
Billy Paschall and despite a disappointing
start by Clay Johnson, has been outstanding.
"We've got them throwing three pitches
(fastball, curve and change-up) and it's kept
hitters guessing all year, even though there's
nobody with exceptional speed on the staff,"
Rabb said. '
Bob Thomson and Greg N orris befuddled
eighth-rated South Carolina last weekend as
things really started going UNC's way.
Blaine Smith had the memorable day against
N.C. State a week ago. Monte DeRatt
whipped Elon. and Matt Wilson confused
Duke with his sharp curve the other day in
Durham.
Today, the" Tar Heels play Pembroke
State in Pembroke, the home of Carolina's
freshman catcher Dwight Lowry. Lowry has
fulfilled everyone's expectation as a great
defensive receiver and taken things a step
further by contributing with the bat, hitting
up around .275 until a slump brought him
down around .240.
"He's doing everything we'd ever ask of a
catcher," Rabb said. "And he's got excellent
tools strength, speed, reaction time."
Perhaps they key to UNC's improvement
has been its adjustment to left-handed
pitching that it faces almost every game.
"We've got so many left-handed hitters
and no left-handed pitchers to practice
against so it was difficult at first," Rabb said.
"But now we've seen so much left-handed
pitching, people like Menapace and Coats
and other left-handers are making the
adjustment."
Adjustment? Maybe against a Pembroke
or an Elon southpaw, but how about the
Yankees' Don Gullett?
"I just hope he has a sore arm the day we
play them," Rabb said awhile back.'

Sadri in the State lineup. Other probably
Wolfpack starters include returnees ' Bill
Csipkay. Scott Dillon and Carl
Bumgardner.

met in the Furman-Shadow Oaks
Invitational three weeks ago. with Sadri
taking a straight-set win.

Bumgardner) for UNC.

Carolina splits
in Softball play
The UNC women's softball team topped
UNC-G in the second game of round-robin
play Tuesday in Greensboro. Appalachian
State handed the Tar Heels a 4-0 loss in the
first game.
Both games were called early, the opener
because of the game time limit of 1 hour and
20 minutes and the second because of
darkness.
Carolina came out swinging in the second
game after leaving a goose egg on the
scoreboard in the first. "Everybody was
hitting; everybody was really psyched. It was
just a more team-oriented thing," assistant
coach Sandy Robeson said.
The women keep on the move with a game
against Campbell College at 2 p.m. today on
Hinton James field. From there the team is
off to Raleigh for the N.C. State
Invitational, an eight-team, double
elimination tournament on Friday and
Saturday.
