It was a perfect afternoon for the Tar Heels as they raised their record to 7 2 and showed why they are the third ranked team in the nation. The Maroons, rated fifth in Division III, were just no match for the talented Tar Heels. "The game was much more fun to watch I'm sure," said co-captain Mac Ford. "It was a fun game. Everybody got to play and a lot of guys scored." Eleven different players joined Z ELLIOTT RD. at E.

Early on, however, the game was anything but a cakewalk. Roanoke came out full of fire and decided to run with the Tar Heels. A Maroon goal by Dan Ahrnsbrak tied the game at 4-4 halfway through the opening quarter. UNC took complete control of the action from that point on. Roanoke wouldn't find the UNC cage for another 25 minutes. North Carolina scored 1 1 straight as the crowd of 1,745 sat back and soaked up the sun. "They got a couple of good shots early in the game," UNC coach Willie Scroggs said. "We tried to tighten up a little bit. They didn't get as many good shots from then on." The offense's dominance gave reserve goalkeepers J.B. Howard and Barney Aburn a relaxed setting to get some playing time. Starting goalie Tim Mealey, with a swollen bruise on his left thigh, watched from the sidelines "We definitely had the better team," said Aburn, a freshman from Baltimore. "They were pumped up to get us right away, but our defense picked up. I'm glad they got me some playing time." Scroggs had emptied his entire bench midway through the final period. Despite the 22-goal scoring barrage, UNC's greatest output 'of the year, Ford's four goals were tops for the afternoon. Junior Joey Seivold had two hat tricks three goals and three assists while Gary Seivold and Tim Welsh each scored three times also.

They come to Orange County and the UNC Tennis Center today along with the rest of the ACC for the conference tennis championships, determined to defend an ACC crown that UNC coach Allen Morris acknowledges they have already practically clinched. Meanwhile, North Carolina lays low with a 19-13 record and a modest third-place conference finish in the regular season. It looks at first glance like another Tiger romp through the rest of the ACC on the way to another NCAA bid. But look a little closer before you count this tournament over before it begins. Twelve of the Tar Heels' 13 losses have been to nationally-ranked teams, and the team is at full strength again for one of the few times this season as they are playing at home. They also have the best player in the conference in Wayne Hearn, an all-court ace with a lethal serve and lovely drop shot. "We could still win the tournament."

"We have a little more stick-work and talent"' than they do," Scroggs said. "Roanoke's a good little group. They came down to play. We had a lot of point-blank shots against them." The game was a stark contrast to Saturday's mediocre performance ver sus UMBC. UNC's attackmen made clearing the ball risky at best for Roanoke. With the offense keeping the Maroons bottled up, the defense picked up the pressure too. "The difference (from Saturday) is that our defense shut the door," Ford said. "We had no problem on offense once we got the ball. The defense controlled the tempo. If our defense plays well, the offense will score goals." The 6-0 second quarter followed by an 8-1 third period blew the contest wide open. It was during that time span that UNC deployed its most dependable and prolific scorers. Almost lost in all the excitement, was the superb job of the longsticks. Pat McDonald, Boyd Harden and Chris Walker picked up the slack in Mealey's absence. Harden leads a Tar Heel team that feeds on ground balls with 46. McDonald, a senior, steadies the unit and Walker's 6-3 frame fills up the zone defenses. North Carolina faces Loyola (Md.) Saturday afternoon in the last home game of the year. The Greyhounds have a talented group and are ranked 13th nationally. A win over the Tar Heels could boost Loyola into playoff competition. "If they knock us off they can make the playoffs," Scroggs said.

Franklin Univ. Sq. M-F 10-7 Sat 10-6 942-1078 By KEITH LYALL Staff Writer Local handball enthusiasts will have a chance to view 20 of the world's best handball players as the Spalding Gatorade Pro Tour comes to Chapel Hill for the Fourth Annual Carolina Classic Handball Tournament. The tournament marks the return of the pro tour, which last stopped here for the second Annual Carolina Classic in 1983. However, the 1985 tournament, which will be held in Fetzer Gym, -promises to be a bigger, more compet itive Classic than the one two years ago. Bob Peters, executive director of the United States Handball Association, said that he was glad to have the tour back in North Carolina. "This is a very sports-conscious community with many fine athletes," he said. "We felt that many people would enjoy viewing athletes who are the best at their game." Among those who will competing for over $20,000 in prize money is Naty Alvarado from Los Angeles, who is rated as the best handball player in the world. Other prominent names include Vern Roberts, Poncho Monreal and former national champion Fred Lewis. Tournament co-host Art Padilla feels that anyone who enjoys a game which requires a degree of strategy will enjoy the tournament. "People think that handball and raquetball are just games of hit and miss that's raquetball," he said. "Hand ball, because it is not an overbearing game, is like a game of chess. Each move is important to your overall strategy." The tour, which plays primarily in large metropolitan areas, is being brought to Chapel Hill largely through the efforts of Eastern Airlines, the Coca Cola Co. and Continental Travel of Chapel Hill. Handball, which dates back to the indeed it is a possibility. But so could Maryland (like Clemson, a 7-2 victor over UNC during the regular season) or Georgia Tech. Because of a somewhat complicated formula that uses both regular season results and tournament play to figure a percentage, Clemson has an almost insurmountable lead for the overall ACC championship. So the Tar Heels will be playing mainly for pride when the matches begin today at 9 a.m. They won't be making any postseason stops this year as a team, although Hearn is almost assured of an individual NCAA singles bid, and Jeff Chambers and Eddie Stewart could conceivably receive one. Nevertheless, Morris says the Tar- Heels wouldn't find motivation a problem. "We've got a lot of incentive to go out and win this tournament," he says. "We're very excited about the new. facilities (where the Old Country Club courts were), and well have a home crowd behind us." But Morris is realistic about the team's chances. "I'd be satisfied if we closed the gap on Clemson and come in second overall for the year," he says. Play will continue through Saturday, with singles matches running through about 3 p.m. every day and doubles matches beginning shortly afterward.

The game had prospered for over 400 years in Ireland before crossing the Atlantic. On the other hand, racquetball is a relatively recent American pheno menon. The game was invented in the late 1960s in Michigan by a man named Joe Sovek, who cut off the handle of a tennis racquet and proceeded to play with tennis ball on a handball court. offttoall tteaiB swps two JU. behind Anngnastsu MonBkemraa By PARIS GOODNIGHT Staff Writer Virginia Augusta pitched a shutout in the first game and Lorae Roukema had four hits in the second as the North Carolina softball team swept both games of a doubleheader against Virginia at Finley Field Wednesday. The two wins over its only Atlantic Coast Conference opponent raised UNC's record to 25-1 1 on the year. In the first game, Augusta had no respect for the team that carries her first name as she led the Tar Heels to a 4 0 win. The Tar Heels got their four runs all in the first three innings, the first on a Cavalier error. In the second inning, Amy Spelman brought in one run and then scored on another Cavalier error. Sheila King drove in the final run in the third inning, as neither team was able to push over a run for the rest of the game. In the second game, UNC had to use a big sixth-inning rally to overcome a 3-2 deficit and win going away, 7-3. Senior Marsha Brown earnedthe win for North Carolina. The Tar Heels started off slowly in the game, failing to capitalize on several scoring opportunities before the deci sive sixth.

Susan Faircloth really started us off good in the sixth." Faircloth, the designated hitter, opened the inning with a single and scored on a double by Patty Gerckens Powers then hit a triple to drive her in. Third baseman Roukema doubled in two more runs and scored on a single by Melissa Jarrell. Virginia scored one run in the first inning, but the Tar Heels answered quickly with. a .single by Roukema that drove in a run. UNC got another run in the third when centerfielder Maria Powers tripled and then scored on a sacrifice fly. Virginia recaptured the lead by scoring two runs in the top of the fifth to set the stage for the sixth-inning rally. "They all hit real well today," said Coach Clark. "I didn't have to tell them anything (in the sixth inning). They knew what to do." The Tar Heels' 25-1 1 record includes a recent co-championship in the Liberty Baptist Invitational tournament.
