Freshman Mapp walks on
and gets playing time; too

Your typical basketball walk-on plays
the tough defense in practice, sees little or
no game action, and is generally quite
pleased with the three-by-five glossy
photograph that appears in the team's
media guide. In other words, playing time
means little; simply making the squad is
the major accomplishment.
Not so for UNC freshman Charisse
"Thriller!' Mapp. Mapp walked onto
Jennifer Alley's top 20 women's basket
ball team last fall and has since become a
valuable reserve forward.
"She plays a lot for a walk-on in back
ing up Dawn Royster and Tresa
brown, Alley said. "Charisse is an ex
cellent athlete and can do a really fine
job."
Thus upon learning that Mapp was a
New York Daily News all-borough
(Brooklyn) choice at S.J. Tilden High
School, averaging 26 points and 18 ire
bounds her senior year, one logically
wonders why she's not -on athletic
scholarship somewhere.
"St. Francis, Fairfield and Swarth
more recruited me, but no southern
schools," Mapp said. "I wanted to" get
recruited by a Division I college or walk
on a Division I team."
Wanting to move south and live close
to her father (a Sanford businessman),
Mapp chose UNC, knowing it would be
difficult to have Alley choose her. But lit
tle did Mapp know, the Tar Heels had to
ffll a void in the frontcourt.
"When Linda Payne had to be red
shirted and Cindy Miller elected not to
play, we needed depth in size," Alley
said. "In tryouts, Charisse was the only
player trying out over 5-8."
Tryouts were an experience Mapp
won't forget. She missed two preliminary.,
practices before Royster remembered that
Mapp had expressed interest in playing
earlier in the fall. Royster alerted Alley
and Alley relayed a message to Mapp,
giving the latter a chance to scrimmage.
"It was very scary to try out," Mapp
said. "I knew the reputation of North

Carolina and of the women's program. I
questioned my ability to make the team. I
hadn't touched a basketball since
March."
You can imagine the reaction when
assistant coach Mike Peckham called
with the news.
"I was ecstatic and excited," Mapp
recalled. "I don't think I finished the
conversation with Mike."
Mapp soon became one of UNC's six
prized freshmen, playing some important
minutes and turning in consistent perfor
mances, especially with her defense and
rebounding. Yet Mapp said she should
rebound better." "
"Although my defense has improved
considerably since I've been at North
Carolina, I know I'm not rebounding as
well as I'd like to," she said.
She looks forward to a bright future
for the UNC team. "We have a lot of
potential in our freshman class," Mapp
said. "There's no reason why our pro
gram shouldn't go anywhere but up."
Mapp, a computer programming and
political science major, has ambitions of
being a corporate lawyer. "School is a
challenge but I do like a challenge," she
said.
No question about that: Mapp set her
sights on making the UNC team and suc
ceeded. "I wanted to make the team to show
myself that I was good enough to play
Division I college basketball," she said.
"It meant an awful lot."

Dalrymple fits the bill
as
UNC's
star
diver
By GLENN PETERSON
Starr Writer
If North Carolina's diving team has
a bona fide star then senior Janice
Dalrymple fits the bill..
Dalrymple is a three-time letter win
ner, and she has won each required
one-meter diving event this year
against ACC competition. Dalrymple
is also the school record-holder in all
women's diving categories.
Since Dalrymple is the best
women's diver in the school's history, .
it is understandable that she might be
looked upon for leadership. But
Dalrymple doesn't see things that way.
"Whatever role I have, it's not a
leadership role," she said. "I'm just
the oldest person on the team. The
team is so close that we don't need a
leader. In fact, I think a leader would
pull us apart."
Personal relationships are very im
, portant to Dalrymple, and she doesn't
want her diving getting in the way. She
came to UNC from London, Ontario,
after a tip from a friend.
"This guy I went to school with
who graduated a year before I did told
me about the school, so I came down,
and I liked it," Dalrymple said. "The
only bad thing about the school was
that I wouldn't get to go home as
often as I would like. But the team is
really close like a happy family." '
Dalrymple, along with divers Sue .
Perfater and Lauren Dul, has helped
to elevate North Carolina's diving
program under coach Barry Thomas.
"We've gotten more quality divers
since I've been here," Dalrymple said.
"We now do trampoline work for two
or three hours a week. They also have
bought a video tape recorder for us to
help our diving. Barry has also been a
help, since he is dedicating a lot of
time to us.
"Diving has come a long way here.
Divers and swimmers were secluded
from each other when I first got here,
but they are not anymore. The swim
mers have been real supportive of us,
and there's not a lot of pressure on us,
because we are strong in our swimm
ing." Dalrymple can relate well to the
swimmers because she was involved in
swimming until she was 14, when she
made the change to diving. "I think
there are more opportunities in
diving," -she said. "You can travel
more and earn more successes. I pro
bably stuck with diving because I was
better at it and enjoyed it more."
But Dalrymple said, there are parts
of the sport she could do without.
"The judges at the duel meets are so
subjective," she said. "It's really bad
because there are only two judges, and
they are both trying to get points for
their own team. It's a political game.
"I think you should have three
judges at the meets. It's better at the
ACC championships because they
have more judges. If the judges make
a bad call, though, I just have to ac
cept it. You just have to block it out,
or else it will affect the next dive."
Bad calls have managed to stay
away from Dalrymple for most of the
year. Thus, she has been able to set
some goals to make her senior year
special. "I want to go to the zone
championships and the national
championships," Dalrymple said.
"I'm not going to dive anymore after
this year, so this is it.
"We've come in the top six in the
country the last three years, and we
want to do as well as possible this
year. This is my last year, and I hope
the divers can bring in a few points at
the national championship."
When Dalrymple completes her col
legiate diving career, she plans to
finish school in the fall, completing
her degree in broadcast journalism.
"I think that diving will help me
with my career because diving has in
troduced me to a lot of different peo
ple," she said. "Diving has been
something to fall back on for me. I
don't, have much experience on my
resume because of my 10 years of div
ing, but I've been more aware of
things because I've been around so
many people." . '
