UNC ventures into the Bayoui
By MIKE BERARDINO
Assistant Sports Editor
North Carolina's up-and-coming
passing attack. Air Maye, will make
its first interstate flight this Saturday
with touchdown slated for 7 p.m. in
Baton Rouge's Tiger Stadium. Over
75,000 screaming Cajuns are
expected to greet the arrival with full
intent of breaking the sound barrier
themselves and forcing the visitors
into a crash landing.
In non-aeronautical terms. UNC's
4-1-1 football team will take a break
from its ACC wars to face the
Fighting Tigers of Louisiana State,
4-1 and ranked 12th nationally, in
the original Death Valley of college
football arenas. The nonconference
game, for which the Tigers are nine
point favorites, is LSU's
Homecoming.
The matchup will be the sixth
renewal of a budding rivalry in which
LSI) has won four of five previous
meetings, including a 23-13 decision
in Kenan Stadium last season. But
the faces, if not the outlooks, have
changed for both teams since then.
Last year, Kevin Anthony threw
for a school-record 302 yards (which
Mark Maye surpassed last Satur-
UNC AJhlefe of flhe Week
Gee. wonder who the UNC Ath-.
lete of the Week is? Mark Maye?
What a surprise!
Actually, the soft-spoken, hard
throwing UNC quarterback was the
easiest choice ever for this illustrious
award. Maye was simply dynamite
Saturday, zinging darts, strikes,
frozen ropes and any other cliche you
can think of all day long.
Maye threw 33 passes, and missed
only eight times. His 25 completions
went for 311 yards, a new school
record, and three touchdowns. Most
impressively, he did not throw an
interception. He was awesome,
tubular, outtasight, baaad, and just
plain boss.
On the receiving end of nine of
those blurs Maye was hurling was
Quint Smith, who gets mentioned as
honorable.

day). LSU quarterback Jeff Wick
ersham committed two big turnovers
deep in his own territory, Tiger
tailbacks Dalton Hilliard and Garry
James rambled for a combined 239
yards on the ground, and North
Carolina's leading rusher was Wil
liam Humes, with 33 yards.
None of those players will be on
the field come Saturday night.
Instead, it will be Dick Crum's
musical tailback system (with Der
rick Fenner, Eric Starr and Torin
Dorn all expected to see action)
against the defensive genius (17
points per game allowed) of LSU
head coach Bill Arnsparger, in his
third year at the helm.
And well find out whether Maye's
outstanding second-half perfor
mance against the Wolfpack will
carry over to this Saturday. Or will
that record-smashing exhibition of
aerial football go the way of Bob
Beamon's leap, Tom Dempsey's field
goal and Kevin Anthony's day in the
sun?
LSU will have some say in that
matter, as the Tigers probably
present the best defense North
Carolina will have faced thus far in
1986. Despite the loss of linebacker
Michael Brooks, the All-America
candidate who tore knee ligaments
three weeks ago, LSU is still in fine
shape. Senior inside linebacker Toby
Caston (6-1, 235 pounds) has played
like a man possessed since Brooks'
injury. Caston's 20-tackle perfor
mance against Georgia two weeks
ago earned him Sports lllustrated's
Defensive Player of the Week award.
On offense, the Tigers have red
shirt freshman Tom Hodson running
the show. The 6-3 signal-caller
riddled Kentucky last week for 255
yards and two touchdowns. Hodson
has completed nearly 60 percent of
his passes on the season.
Hodson's favorite target is split
end Wendell Davis, who ranks
second in the nation with 7.2 recep
tions per game. The dangerous Davis
averages over 14 yards a catch.
LSU will alternate its tailback
combo of Harvey Williams (373
yards) and Sam Martin (251 yards)
throughout the game, keeping both
runners fresh and the UNC defense
off guard.
It seems almost a shame this fine
interconference matchup must
directly follow last Saturday's classic
35-34 thriller. Although youll never
hear them say it. coming out flat
against LSU has to be a real worry
for the Tar Heels. In the past five
years, North Carolina is 1-4 the week
following the N.C. State game.

UNC fencing coach Ron Miller (right) instructs his non-scholarship charges in the finer points of their sport
Fending coach Miller honored
By BONNIE BISHOP
Staff Writer
For the second time in four years. North Carolina
fencing coach Ron Miller has been named the collegiate
fencing coach of the year for men.
This award is selected by coaches who are members
of the U.S. Fencing Coaches Association and was voted
on at the NCAA Championships last March. The results
of the vote then went to the Association's executive board
where they were finalized in late September.
Miller, who also won the award in 1983, is in his
20th year of coaching at UNC. In 1968, he organized
the first varsity program from a club team, which had
been in existence since the 1920s.
"One of the reasons they hired me was to see if they
were interested in making it a varsity program," Miller
said. "The first year we went 8-1, and they thought that
was good enough, so they made us a varsity team."
Miller gives credit for the award to the people that
he works with, the athletic department and the athletes.
"Really the award is a credit to all the people that
are involved and not just one person," he said. "So I
may win the award but it's an award for all parts of
the program, from the athletic director right down to
the 63rd player on the team."
Miller's fencing teams have had great success,
competing in the NCAA tournament on a regular basis,
finishing in third place in 1983 and eighth place in 1986.
These accomplishments are made even more remarkable
due to the fact that UNC fencing is a non-scholarship
program competing with scholarship programs.
"I'd say a large part ot the reason that 1 won the
award before and also this year was due to the fact
that our program was probably the only consistently
nationally-ranked team in the country which does not
have admissions assistance or scholarship assistance."
said Miller.
He said that the athletic department is very supportive
in other ways, as it supplies the team with a good
operating budget.
"For the last five or six years, weVe been probably
one of the five or six best-funded programs in the
country," Miller said. "But it's a different type of
funding."
Unfortunately, not having scholarships does have its
drawbacks, as North Carolina lost two recruits this past
year to schools with scholarship aid.
UNC gets its fencers in a variety of ways, from people
in fencing classes and from athletes who are disenchanted
with other sports.
Miller said that the sport tends to sell itself. There
are still other fencers who come to the University just
to have a chance to work with him.
He has been the head coach for Junior Olympics teams
and has coached the Junior Pan American team. He
was the sabre coach for the U.S. team at the Senior
World Championships in Rome three summers ago.
"1 have travelled with three international teams, but
most of my work deals with the planning and orientation
stages for the programs," he said. "It may be less
glamorous, but it is probably where most of the work
is done."
Miller puts a great deal of emphasis on improving
his coaching techniques and keeping them up to date,
because the sport is constantly changing. He had the
opportunity to go to the Olympic Games in Los Angeles
but chose to go to a coaching seminar in Hungary
instead.
"Every year there are changes and if you don't stay
abreast of them, you're going to fall behind," he said.
"One of the reasons I wanted to go to Hungary instead
of the Olympic Games was because Hungary is the best
in the sabre and that's the weapon I usually coach
nationally. 1 wanted to learn as much as I could.
"The more sources that you can find to influence what
you think and what you believe or what things you
think you might want to teach, the better off you're
going to be, because you have more selection from which
to make an opinion. So we constantly strive to find
as many different sources as we can and then choose
the best."
