SPORTS Tar Heels still improving By FRANK KENNEDY Sports Editor Given North Carolina's 1-3 lecord after the first month of the football season, things could be awfully bleak on a team that is used to winning. Not so, said UNC coach Dick Crum Tuesday. Speaking at his weekly press conference, Crum said his young team remains optimistic as it heads into its first official ACC game of the season Saturday at Wake Forest. "This team has the best ability to bounce back after a loss that IVe ever coached," Crum said. "On Monday (in practice), it was business as usual for our kids. They came out and had fun." Crum said last Saturday's 20-12 loss to Clemson left the team frustrated, but feeling good with the knowledge that it showed considerable improvement. "We were in a position to win it," he said. "We have improved considerably, especially with the defense. You look at us with Navy (a 33-30 loss) and with Clemson. "The way we played against Clemson wasn't one of those things that happens once every three years. The kids were playing with a lot of emotion and intensity. They were at a level of intensity we're trying to reach. "These guys arent moping. They arent down in the dumps." Crum doesnt expect there to be any problem with the team getting ready for Wake Forest. "This is not like we're going to Clemson. Well have just about as many fans there as Wake. Many of the people who can't get tickets into Kenan Stadium will be there." Wake, at 3-2, is off to one of its more impressive starts in a few years. Their losses included a 21-20 defeat to Virginia Tech, and a 38-17 loss at Maryland after being tied 17-17 at the half. Crum said the Deacons support a double threat that they havent had in the past. "In the past, they would hang their Women's volleyball team loses to Duke By PAUL ENSSLIN Staff Writer A slow starting North Carolina volleyball team, after dropping the first two games, showed some emotion and hustle in the later games but still came up short, losing to Duke, 15-7, 15-2, 16-14, 15-13, last night in Carmichael Auditorium. The win was the Blue Devils' 14th in 15 games and leaves them atop the ACC at 3-0. The Tar Heels dropped to 4-9 overall and 0-3 in the conference. "If all the matches were seven out of 10, we'd win," said UNC coach' Peggy-Bradley Doppes. "But three out of five is too short." It looked like the Tar Heels would never be able to recover from the first two games as Duke was dominant throughout and never trailed in either game. Thanks to the defensive net play of 6-3 junior Diane Brown, the Blue Devils built up a quick 14-6 lead in the first game as Brown was able to score over the much shorter UNC front. Things were no different in the second game as Duke breezed to a 15-2 win in much the same manner as it won the first game. It was if the two teams had changed uniforms as well as benches before the start of the third game, as UNC came out unexpectedly hot. . Led -by the serving and spiking both offensively and defensively of 5-10 sophomore Jill Berkebile, the Tar Heels went up 11-2. "We changed our lineup and put Jill in the middle and that's what did it, " Bradley-Doppes said. "She had a great game." And, just as Berkebile was playing well, Brown, the mainstay of the Duke lineup, was not playing at all. She had to take a seat because of a twisted ankle suffered halfway through the second game. However, she came back in with H? U r M- T -ir -m 3 A FROM TAIWAN, R.O.C. YOUTH GOODWILL MISSION 40 Si M "an adventure in Chinese songs and dances...'

"Now, they have security because they're running the ball." Wake Forest tailback Michael Ram seur is averaging 121.4 yards a game through five, and fullback Topper demons has netted an average of 82 per outing. The real key for the Tar Heels may lie in the rugged schedule they have faced early on, Crum hinted. He said that while the early losses have been difficult to handle, they have forced the team to learn quickly. "If you contrast this season with last, putting both on a scale of zero to 10 for how much we improved in the first few games, this team wins," he said. "I'd say last year's team went from a zero to a minus two or three. This one has gone from a zero to seven or eight." Crum said the UNC offense, which has moved the ball well between the 20s, but failed to get in the end zone very often, has suffered from a series of injuries to its linemen. "If we can get those interior five guys in there working together, well be all right." Crum on: The 76-yard pass play that all but killed UNC against Clemson: "The guy just ran a slant, Eppley stepped back, threw the ball, he caught it, and he raced by our guy. That's all there was to it. There was nothing mystical about it." Reserve quarterback Mark Maye's status: "One day his shoulder is better, the next day it's worse. I'd like someone to be able to give me an answer on when I can use him. He will get playing time when he comes back, if he does." The NCAA rule making pass inter ference a 15-yard penalty: "If it's a flagrant penalty, it should be a spot foul. I think theyH change the rule to add that in to it." Ethan Horton's 133-yard perfor mance against Clemson: "That was probably his best game since he's been here." UNC leading 12. That appeared to give the momentum back to the Blue Devils, who roared back to take a 14-12 lead, due largely to Annette Murphy's seven straight service winners. Duke found itself again in the fourth game, taking a 7-3 lead. After UNC made it 8-7, the Blue Devils scored six straight points to snuff out any further challenge. "We should have won it," Bradley Doppes said after the match. "Duke is a very good team, but they are very -beatable." - - - - Bradley-Doppes added: "Our level of play was much higher than in the past, but we needed good, solid performances from all our players, and did not get it. That was the difference." GET FRESH!'. Franklin Center 967-5400 Sun.-Thurs. 10:30 am-2:00 am Fri.-Sat. 10:30 am-3:00 am 1012 BERLIN ALEXANDERPLATZ j,- 1 NORTH CAROLINA EXCLUSIVE "ITS A SPELLBINDER...

On a bright, sunny Tuesday after noon on Fetzer Field the North Carol ina women established their superiority early in the match and coasted to a 7 0 win. The Tar Heels led 6-0 at the half, scoring five times in the first 25 minutes of play. After getting back to Chapel Hill at close to midnight Monday following six games over the weekend at the Real Vodicka Menorial Tournament in Fairfax, Va., several starters did not see action against Erskine. Leading Tar Heel scorers Joan Dunlap and April Heinrichs spent the entire afternoon watching their teammates dismantle the Flying Fleet. Freshmen Lisa Duffy and Sherri McDavid took advantage of increased playing time each tallying two goals. Carrie Serwetnyk, another freshman, punched home a goal and also had an assist. Sophomore Nancy Slocum, who had the lone second half score, said the match was a good experience for the players who usually dont get into a match until the outcome is already determined. "We got to win (this) one for our selves," Slocum said. "We were respon sible for the win ourselves." UNC dominated the game on the field, on the scoreboard and in the statistics book. The Tar Heels outshot Erskine 28-1 and goalkeeper Kathleen. O'Dell made the one save she was called on to make easily. Coach Anson Dorrance restricted his team to just scoring on head-balls off Men hold off Erskine, 1-0 By KIMBALL CROSSLEY Staff Writer The North Carolina men's soccer team defeated Erskine, 1-0, Tuesday at Fetzer Field for its third straight shutout victory, and in so doing put its season record, 6-5, over .500 for the first time since its season-opening win against Philadelphia Textile. UNC head coach Anson Dorrance said the game against Erskine had been by no means a guaranteed win, con sidering that Erskine, 6-5-1, had played Clemson to an overtime loss earlier this season, and therefore said he was pleased with the win. The game itself was even for the first half, but the Tar Heels, despite being outshot 8-5 scored the only goal on David Smyth's sliding boot of a Mark Devey corner kick. Dorrance credited his goalkeeper, Larry Goldberg, with making some key saves in the first half when the defense was not playing well. In all, Goldberg made four of his five saves in the first half, on his way to his third consecutive shutout. In the second half the Tar Heels played better both offensively and Willow Creek 929-2288 FRIDAY One Extraordinary Week BERLIN ALEXANDERPLATZ t3 r f"""""XiY? !

The win pushed the team's record to 15-0 and did nothing to hurt its No. 1 rating. defensively and basically dominated play, but could not score again. Smyth's goal was his third of the year and placed him second on the team in scoring behind Shawn Ritchie with 11 points. Smyth said he thinks the team is on track now and ready for its trip to Florida this weekend and its games against South Florida and Central Florida. Dorrance echoed his midfielder's comments and said his team has improved in the nine days since a loss to powerful Virginia. And while not calling his team's three straight wins inspiring, Dorrance said, "We're grinding our way to victory."
