Monday, February 22, 1982The Daily Tar Heel7 Pack sinks swimmer; Ericson sets record By TRACY YOUNG Starr Writer Last Tuesday, the UNC women's swim team handily defeated N.C. State. The Carolina men's swim team was not as lucky Thursday night. Carrying only three of the 13 events, the Tar Heels fell to N.C. State 68-45, and this time it was the Wolfpack who ended their season undefeated. "There were 46 or 47 points in this meet I felt we could legitimately grab," head coach Frank Comfort said. "I'm not upset. We swam very well. "It was like football in that we didn't get to use all of our offense," he said. "There were plays we couldn't run be cause we couldn't use our depth the way we wanted to." N.C. State coach Don Easterling was pleased with the win. This is only the se cond year the Wolfpack has gone un defeated. "You always expect to win," he said. "You have to do that or you might as well hang it up. The cupboard's been kind of bare for a while, but we're com ing back." Carolina's most impressive swim was Eric Ericson's 1:49.89 pool record in the 200-yard backstroke. The time also quali fied him for the NCAA nationals. Comfort called Ericson one of the greatest backstrokers in the world. "We've known this for a long time, but he's starting to show the times now," Comfort said. "I knew I was going to swim pretty fast," Ericson said, adding that he has been swimming good times in workouts in preparation for the ACC champion ship. Ericson added two additional pool records with the backstroke leg of the 400-yard medley relay (3:24.54). Ericson's time of 50.54 in the 100-yard backstroke broke the record he set earlier this year by more than one second. Other members of the relay were Scott Hammond, Dirk Marshall and Tim Sutton. "We needed one more point going into the 500-yard freestyle," Comfort said. "And we needed second and third in the 500 free. I really felt we could have swept the 200-yard breaststroke and the 400-yard free relay." "They've got terrific divers, which puts us 14 points behind without even starting the meet," Ericson said. "The individual medley hurt; they built up a good lead." State's David DeGruchy set the fourth pool record of the evening with a time of 1:52.83 in the 200-yard individual medley. Easterling said DeGruchy has swum faster this season, and that his false start in the event and in the 200-yard butterfly made him look like a rookie. The only other win for Carolina was Dave Hansen's 1:41.65 in the 200-yard freestyle. "I'm glad we got the chance to drive 30 minutes to swim against Eric Ericson and Dave Hansen," Easterling said. "I was very impressed with the Heels." Comfort said the Heels had the poten tial to win the meet in the last few events. "We wanted to win this meet tre mendously. There's no question about that," UNC's head coach said. "There were more unknown factors going into this meet than any all year." s - - , ' -j : . . . v VY - v:' !! . First baseman Pete Kumiega at bat . . .had two hits in win over Miami basketball Weekend roundup From staff reports " Nancy Radford qualified for the AIAW National In door Track Championships in the mile run Saturday afternoon in a track meet held at the New Tin Can. Radford, a senior from Roanoke, Va., won the mile in 4:51.9, a new school record. Janice High finished second in 5:07. Katie Lichota also set a UNC record with a 40-4 toss in the shot put. It marked the first time a woman has cleared the 40-foot mark. In other impressive performances for UNC athletes, Maria Daniel won the two-mile run in 10:37.3, Kelly Al mond placed second with a personal best of 11:36.2, Chris Arends won the high jump in 5-9, Kelly Houk took the 600-yard run, and Lisa Staton finished first in the 60-yard dash. Also, Marquita Brown won the 60-yard low hurdles and Lisa Miller placed third in the 880-yard run. For the men, Mike Flynn was second in the shot put and Ben Harrington placed second in the high jump at 6-7. ' Track coach Hubert West said several top UNC track stars, including Chris Mand, Todd McCallister, Brett Plummer, Mark Whitney, Glenn Sparrow, Mike Kom minsky and Joan Nesbit, were scheduled to compete in the prestigious Delaware Invitational track meet Sunday. The North Carolina baseball team defeated perennial top-10 power Miami of Florida 6-5 Saturday night to capture their only win in the three-game series against the Hurricanes. , The Tar Heels dropped Friday night's game 17-4 to open their season and lost Sunday's meeting 14-4. In Saturday's matchup, the Heels rallied for two runs in the top of the eighth inning at Mark Light Stadium to edge UM, John Marshall collected three hits for UNC, while first baseman Pete Kumiega and catcher Tim McGee had two each. McGee and third baseman Jeff Hubbard also drove in two runs apiece. Freshman Steve McGuire came out of the bullpen to pick up the win. The Heels began the series Friday with a record-setting performance they would probably like erased. En route to their eight-inning 17-4 loss, eight UNC pitchers gave up 24 walks, setting a new NCAA record. The previous mark of 22 walks was set by Rice University in 1948 in a game against Texas Christian. Senior Dave Droschak, who started Friday's game, took the first loss of the season for UNC. The strong Hurricane offense again used Tar Heel pitching to their advantage by drawing 1 1 walks and col lecting 16 hits in the final game of the series. Kumiega went 3 for 5 at the plate for UNC with a dou ble, homerun and two RBIs. Left fielder Jimmy Thrift added an RBI to his four-hit performance. Thrift went 8 for 12 in the series. Starter Scott Bankhead picked up the loss Sunday. The Heels are now 1-2 on the season and Miami is 10-2. The Heels open their home schedule against Elon Col lege 3 p.m. Thursday. . From page 1 cond straight game. "We were content to stay outside and burn time off the clock." "They weren't going to gamble against the delay so we knew the score was going to stay close," coach Dean Smith said. "We've been extremely successful in our delay all year. It didn't matter if they didn't give us the layup , because free throws are just as good." Free throws were especially good to Jimmy Black who canned all eight of his attempts in the final four minutes. Consequently, Black let a balanced, UNC scoring attack with 14 points. Michael Jordan had 11 and James Worthy added 10. Clemson's Vincent Hamilton led all scorers with 18. Virginia edges Wolfpack again, 45-40 From Staff and Wire Reports For the second time this season, the N.C. State Wolfpack tried to slow 'Virginia down, and for the second time, the Cava liers slipped by in the closing moments, 45-40. Craig Robinson, Ralph Sampson and Jeff Jones combined six unanswered free throws in the final two minutes with a charging call on State's Scott Parzych to pull out the win and raise Vir ginia's record to 26-1 overall, 11-1 in the ACC, one game ahead of North Carolina. "We played the No. 1 team in the country down to the wire, and it is a difficult pill to swallow when you lose like that," Wolfpack coach Jim Valvano said. In their first meeting, Virginia edged State 39-36 on Feb. 11, with State holding the ball for the last shot and missing. This time State held it and made a turnover on Parzych' s charge. "It was deja vu," Valvano said. "We had the ball down one point with two minutes to go and we had a chance to win. We hadn't decided what to do, but we wanted a time out with 30 seconds to go to set up." State outshot Virginia from the floor 50 percent to 43 percent, but the Cavaliers sank ll-of-13 free throws to State's 4-of-4, , Maryland coach Lefty Driesell, who saw his team drop to 14-10 and 4-8, was frustrated. "I told our ball club we are coming very, very close, but we can't get over the hump," he said. "We had North Carolina, Virginia and this club down by four in the second half, but couldn't hold them. "We get a couple of bad breaks and a couple of bad shots a little better offensive control and we can play with anybody in the country." Adrian Branch dropped in a gamehigh 17 points for the Ter rapins while Mike Helms led Wake Forest with 14. "I think we learned to play against the delay a little bit," Wake Forest coach Carl Tacy said. "We did a good job on the boards, which was awfully big to stay in the lead." Georgia Tech 87 Duke 78 Brook Steppe was the name of the game Saturday as the senior canned 15 of 19 field goals and 5-of-7 free throws to beat the Blue Devils. Steppe, who has averaged 26.8 points over the last five games, outscored Duke's Vince Taylor 35-23 to take the ACC scoring The loss drops the Wolfpack's record to 19-7 ovefaU, r in lead .

"I thought they played well," Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski said. "The last ten minutes of the first half was the difference, along with the play of Steppe. He had a tremendous game." Ail the Yellow Jackets had a tremendous game, hitting 33 of 47 field goals, 70 percent, and Tech raised its overall record to 9-14, 3-10 in the ACC, still a half game behind the 3-9 Blue Devils, who hold a 9-15 overall record.

As they had done in Chapel Hill, Clem son roared to a seven point lead at 25-18 with four minutes remaining in the first half. But the Tar Heels edged back to within two at intermission, behind the outside shooting of Black and reserve point guard Buzz Peterson. - With the score tied, Foster elected to go to a man-to-man defense for the first time.
