Monday, August 24. 1981 The Dsliy Tar HetlllP 1981 Fallocheduho nqu-revenue spo rts lo ok go od again By DAVID THOMPSON DTH Staff Writer UNCs dominance of the Carmichael Cup, the symbol of excellence in Atlantic Coast Conference athletics, can be attributed in part to its strong record in non-revenue sports, UNC Athletic Director John Swofford said. "We're pleased with the growth and quality of the non revenue sports," Swofford said. "Our coaches are doing an excellent job." The student fee increase in this year's tuition will be spent to maintain the level of financial support for non revenue sports. Swofford said these sports probably would not grow any more. "We are close to having men's and women's non-revenue sports equal in money spent and how we operate," he said. "We want to maintain the quality of the program now. That in itself is a challenge." Overall, fall sports non-revenue teams arc confident. Men's golf coach Devon Brouse may have trouble re placing Walker Cup member Frank Fuhrer, so he is un sure about his team's potential this season. "We have five seniors on the team," he said. "The key for us will be how the seniors bind together and the qual ity of leadership they provide." Senior John Spelman, who had the low stroke average on last season's team, heads the returning players. Mike West, who won the Orange County Invitational earlier this month, and David Whitfield, winner of the Durham Herald-Sun tournament in July, will also return. Brouse said he expects UNC, N.C. State or Wake Forest to win the conference championship, with Clem son improving. The women's golf team is returning from its best sea son, finishing 18th in the country, and has the potential for improvement. , "I think we can finish in the top 10 nationally," Coach Dorothy Gunnefls said. "The team played with poise and . confidence last year; we're more experienced now and all . our players had a good summer." Seniors Jill Nesbitt and Carla Daniel and juniors Linda ' Mescan and Kathy Reynolds head the returning players. . "These four led the team last year," Gunnells said: . . Mescan had the low average on last year's team, while Nesbitt played best in national competition, Gunnells said. v . .. Gunnells said she expected Duke and Wake Forest to provide the stiffest league competition, which has im proved recently. The lady golfers play in a region featur ing Kentucky and Furman as top competition. The men's cross-country team, coached by Don Lock-. erbie, features a strong senior trio. Todd McAllister, who finished 10th in the 1 ,500-meter national championships, co-captain Mark Whitney, and John Clark are being counted on to lead the team. Schedule highlights include the Furman Invitational, which Lockerbie said was a top-notch testing ground, and a Sept. 19 meet at Charlottesville, Va., with N.C. State and Virginia. . Lockerbie, a 1979 UNC graduate who started work last week, also coaches the women's cross-country team. Seniors Nancy Radford, Lindy Appcn and Maria Daniel are the leading returnees. "We want to practice more speedwork and more rac ing," Lockerbie said. "They may have been just running , for distance in the past.'' wt"" 'i-i'-i. i I Mill.

IIP Hi Volleyball coach Beth Miller said her team could do well if two crucial players off last year's team, Adri Esnard and Cindy Adcock, can be replaced. Seniors Jenny Watson and Terri Wallace, and juniors Laura Held and Katie Howard will vie for staring posi tions. Miller said she expected sophomores Cindy Schmidt and Mercedes Ballbe and transfer Donna Meyer, who started at New Mexico, to contribute. N.C. State, Maryland and Clemson provide the top ACC competition. . ', "We have the material," she said. "And if we have a good mental attitude, we should do all right." Women's tennis coach Kitty Harrison said she antici pated a good season. "We're strong. We'll probably be as good as last year," she said. The tennis team won the ACC title and went to the NCAA regionals. . Sophomore Kathy Barton, junior Margie Brown, and . seniors Betsy Heidenberger and Katharine Hogan are the top four players. Harrison said their positions on the ladder were interchangeable now. Duke, Clemson and possibly Virginia will provide top ACC competition. The ACC tournament will be held Oct. 23-25. Women's soccer, which finished fourth in the nation 1 last year in only its second season, may be stronger now due to effective recruiting, coach Anson Dorrance said. Junior Janet Rayfield,-the leading scorer for the past two seasons, junior Nancy Clary and sophomore Ann Klas head the squad. Clary made first-team All-America last season, while Rayfield and Klas were honorable mention. , Northern Virginia and Dallas are- the richest recruiting areas for women's soccer, and since few schools in Texas and Virginia have women's soccer teams (only 100 schools nationwide compete), UNC has a chance to get their best players. Carolina's top regional competition should include William & Mary, James Madison, Virginia and Virginia Tech. : New field hockey coach Karen Shelton said "We ex pect to make it to the nationals. We have many returning players. They've looked fine to me." Junior Kim Knickerbocker, a forward, Mary Stuart and Lisa Todd are the veteran leaders. Jamie Knickerbocker, Kim's sister, who was on a Pennsylvania high school state mile-relay championship team last year, joins the squad this season. "There is such potential to be a national champion," said Shelton, who replaced Dolly Hunter this season. "We. can be the Penn State Oast season's national cham pions) of the South."
