The Daily Tar HeelFriday, September 4, 19871 1 Sports J If ' - V : i i V X4 v r ( Fetzer center off weekend action ffor Men's, and womneii's soccer iSli - A By JAMES SUROWIECKI Sports Editor There was despair in the boy's eyes as he heard the line go dead. She was gone. Three days without her. He would not see her again until Mon day. He lived too far away to go home for the weekend. He had no car. His friends had abandoned him when began unceasingly murmuring her name. He was lost, unsure of what he should do. Friday, Saturday and Sunday stretched before him, endless. Suddenly a shining creature of light descended into the room. "Oh, you must be the person who lives upstairs, " the boy said. "I wish you'd stop playing the VU so loud. " "No, my abode is not on this planet. Rather, I learned of your predicament. Idle hands are the devil's workshop. And so I shall solve your problem. Listen closer. " This early into the fall, Tar Heel sports usually offers rather slim pickings for the prospective fan. This weekend, though, the quantity may be small but the quality is high. ' Everything revolves around Fetzer Field, and around the world's most popular sport, soccer. Both the masculine and the distaff versions of the pastime are in action this festive Labor Day weekend. , The women boast their usual undefeated record, albeit with just one win. The Tar Heels are led by senior Carrie Serwetnyk and junior Wendy Gebauer. Serwetnyk and Gebauer sparked UNC to victory Tuesday, as the Tar Heels rolled over the Lady Viking , Fury of Berry, 5-0. The dynamic duo each had a pair of goals, while junior Tracey Bates also bulged the net cords. UNC will be tested much more severely this weekend. Saturday at 3 p.m., the George Mason Lady Patri ots come to town. George Mason was the last team to defeat UNC, in the 1985 NCAA championship. Since then, the Tar Heels have won 25 straight games. The Patriots would love to end that streak. Sunday, the Tar Heels play Central Florida at 5 p.m. Dorrance does not have the same security with the men as he does with the women. Of course, in his entire tenure as women's coach, he has presided over just seven losses. The men lost that many last season. The year has begun on a spectac ular note, though, as the Tar Heels thoroughly handled 8th-ranked Duke Tuesday, stunning the Blue Devils with a 2-1 victory. A Derrick Missimo header at the 56:34 mark of the second half eluded Duke goalie Mark Dodd and netted UNC the win. The Tar Heels highlight defense man Dave Smyth, a potential Ail American who turned in a brilliant performance down the stretch, UNC, now 1-0, returns 12 letter men from last year's 13-7-1 team. Goalie Darren Royer, who in part time duty last year posted a 1 .85 goals against average, is the man between the poles. The Tar Heels will be trying to keep the momentum going this weekend, as they host the Tar Heel Invitational. On Friday at 3 p.m., George Mason will play Central Florida, followed by UNC against South Florida. Satur day, Fetzer will feature a 1 p.m. clash between George Mason and South Florida and a 3 p.m. tilt between the Tar Heels and Central Florida. The voice ceased, and the boy's eyes were cleared of the sadness. His mind was filled with purpose, and the memory of the creature of light. For now, all was right with the world. Until she returned, and he could be miserable again.
