Scruffy the Cat
struts on new EP
Scruffy the Cat's new five-song
EP, Boom Boom Boom Bingo, is
not meant merely to tide the
band's fans over until its next full
length album. Instead of giving a
lackluster effort and releasing
something to keep fans interest.
Scruffy has put out a record,
maybe its best, that will expand
its audience. Old fans will be glad
to hear Scruffy's tight rocking
sound that is characteristic of its
energetic and fun live shows, and
new listeners will shake in antic
ipation of seeing the band live.
Side one of the EP contains two
new songs done in the studio,
while side two consists of three live
songs recorded at a club in the
band's backyard. "You Dirty
Rat," from side one, is a catchy
number that contains lead singer
Charlie Chesterman's silly humor.
Scruffy also covers "Blue Rus
sian," a hard rocking song done
by another Boston band, The
Oysters. This song is the most
raucous track that Scruffy has ever
played in the studio. The song is
pumped by MacPaul Stanfield's
strong bass line and includes the
guitar work of David Fredette,
brother of Scruffy guitarist Ste
phen Fredette and a former
member of The Oysters.
Side two was recorded at TT
the Bear's Place in Cambridge,
Mass., before an enthusiastic
crowd. Anyone who has caught

Album
Cradle will love these three live
songs that truthfully represent the
band's stage shows. Producer Ed
Stasium, who has worked with the
Talking Heads, did a great job of
getting Scruffy's live sound accu
rately reproduced on vinyl.
The first song is "Shadow Boy"
off last year's Tiny Days, an album
that put Scruffy among America's
top underground bands. This live
rendition, though, surpasses the
Tiny Days' version because of
Fredette's enlivening guitar.
Scruffy also does a superb version
of "Runaway," a number one
Billboard hit for Del Shannon in
1961, that includes organ and
piano music by Stanfield's
brother, Burns Stanfield. The
band wraps up the record with
"Happiness to Go," a real burner
with Randall Lee Gibson IV
stomping like crazy on drums and
Fredette clearing the way with a
frantic guitar solo.
Scruffy's full-length album
should be out by early spring,
according to Jocelynn Loebl, the
band's national publicity director.
If that LP is as good as Boom
Boom Boom Bingo, 1988 could be
even a better year than 1987 for
the guys of Scruffy the Cat.

Koll hates to lose
By JIM MUSE
Assistant Sports Editor
Rob Koll credits his beginnings in
wrestling to self-preservation
thanks to three older brothers and
two older sisters.
"I would always start the fights, but
they would always finish them," Koll
said. UI kind of picked it up. If you
get thrown around enough times, you
pick up some things."
Today Koll will be in Cedar Falls,
Iowa, participating in the National
Wrestling Coaches Association All
Star meet, which annually pits the top
two wrestlers in each weight class.
Last year, he defeated Oklahoma
State's Glen Lanham, 10-5. This year
he will take on Lanham's teammate,
Vince Silva.
Now a three-time Ail-American for
the Tar Heels, Koll grew up around
wrestling. His father was the wrestling
coach at Penn State for 13 years, and
he used to hang around the Nittany
Lion wrestling room a lot. His years
of observation have evidently paid
off.
"I used to really look up to the
Penn State wrestlers, and even high
school wrestlers, because my brothers
wrestled," Koll said. "I always wanted
to be out there in front of the crowd."
When he finally did get his chance
to perform, he came through with
flying colors. At State College High
School in wrestling-crazy Pennsylva
nia, Koll compiled a 101-6-2 record,
winning the state championship his
junior year and earning Amateur
Wrestling News All-America honors
as a senior.
But when it came time for recruit
ing, the majority of schools were
suddenly silent.
"A lot of schools shied off," Koll
said. "They didn't think I was going
to go anywhere else (but Penn State)."
With the guidance of his father,
Scott latest fantastic Tech freshman
The pattern for Bobby Cremins'
teams has now become pretty famil
iar. Recruit one excellent player each
year to fill a glaring weakness, and
through playing time and ability this
player, by the end of his career, will
have developed into a genuine NBA
prospect.
The process began six years ago
with the advent of two present NBA
stars Mark Price, a 6-foot-1 guard
who ; led the ACC in scoring as a
freshman, and John "Spider" Salley.
Working miracles with his depleted
lineup, Cremins was then ready to
make his great leap into the recruiting
wars by signing then No. 1 prospect
Henry (Bruce) Dalrymple, who fol
lowed Price as ACC Rookie of the
Year.
The signing of Dalrymple appar
ently opened many doors for Tech,
as Cremins was able to corral top
prospects in each of the next four
years, including guard Michael Chris
tian, and forwards Duane Ferrell and

Rob Koll
Koll looked at schools such as
Michigan and the Naval Academy,
but for various reasons they were all
eliminated. "My dad wouldn't let me
go to a school like Iowa or Okla
homa," he said, "because I'd come
out a good wrestler, but the education
wouldn't be worth anything.
"I wanted to go to a school like
Penn State, with good academics and
a good wrestling team. North Carol
ina was the only school I looked at
on the East Coast. When I came down
on my recruiting trip, there was six
inches of snow on the ground in
Pennsylvania, and people were
already laying out down here. And
this was late March. That really made
an impression on me."
The transition to college life was
a bit difficult at first for Koll, who
made several makeshift journeys
home, even hitchhiking to overcome
his homesickness. Things are differ
ent today, and after getting married
next August, Koll plans to remain in

Tom Hammonds. Each of these top

the Year.
The latest in such an eminent string
is sure to be the streak-shooting
Dennis Scott. Blessed with the body
of a J.R. Reid yet the sweet touch
of the silky Walter Davis, Scott
immediately emerged as a force.
Playing at Flint Hill Prep in
Virginia, where he led the basketball
finishing school to a 46-0 record in
two years, Scott was apparently
attracted to Georgia Tech because of
the opportunity to start in his
freshman year.
After a post-graduation vacation
in which the weight-conscious
Scott ate everything in the vicinity
Chapel Hill audiences were intro
duced to the somewhat obese Scott
over the summer at the U.S. Olympic
Festival.
Despite much press about his load,
Scott did little to alleviate this

so much,

"I'd like to put a little back into
North Carolina wrestling," Koll said.
"IVe been going to school with these
guys for a long time, and I'd like to
coach and help out as much as I can
for the next year."
It's not as if Koll hasn't given the
program enough already. He made
the transition to college wrestling
look deceivingly easy. "I came in with
the right attitude," he said by way
of explaining his early success. "A lot
of people come in thinking 'Oh, these
guys are so great!' It's all mental."
As a freshman, Koll stepped right
into the lineup at 150 pounds, and
went 33-10 with 10 pins. He took
second in the ACC tournament after
going 6-0 through the conference
season and became the first UNC
freshman to earn All-America honors
by placing eighth in the nation.
Koll's sophomore year began a
reign of terror at the 158-pound
weight class which has not yet ended.
While leading the ACC in wins with
a 34-7-1 mark, he went 3-1 in the
conference and took home his first
ACC championship with a tourna
ment victory.
He went on to the NCAA tour
nament and advanced to the semi
finals before losing a heartbreaker in
overtime with no time left on the
clock.
Despite the setback, or perhaps
because of it, Koll kept improving.
Bettering his season marks of the
previous year, he went 47-2 with 15
pins, including a spotless 6-0 ACC
record. But after he separated his
sternum in the first round of the
NCAA's, things looked grim. He
came back to finish third for the
second time in a row, but lost to a
man he had beaten handily during
the year.
This year, Koll's last, has so far
handicap and showed up for presea
son workouts weighing a phenomenal
250 pounds, 40 over the limit set by
Cremins. By the opening of the
season, Scott had shed the excess
tonnage, just in time to be decimated
by Florida in the preseason NIT
tournament. Yet even in defeat Scott
was stupendous as he led the team
with 28 points in only his second
outing.
Scott, in addition to his size and
strength, is best at shooting three
pointers, as he lends Tech a weapon
that they sorely lacked last season.
Yet he has surprised outsiders by
demonstrating an agile mastery of
other facets of the game.
This year he is third on the team
in scoring with 14.6 per game, 13th
in the ACC. He also is ninth in assists
(4.4), seventh in steals (1.6) and
second in three-point shooting
percentage (.480). These stats dem
onstrate a versatility that is not often
publicized due to media hype about
Scott's offensive skills.
Saturday, spectators at the Smith
Center witnessed a different side of
Scott. He did shoot often, going 6-for-20
from the field, including 3-for-10
from behind the stripe, yet he also
demonstrated a surprising ability to
play defense and rebound with the
big boys, pulling down a game-high
12 boards.

he wins
proven to be an appropriate grand '
finale. Looking to become UNC's
first four-time All-American, he has
blazed his way to a 26-1 overall
record, 3-0 in the ACC. Fourteen of
his wins have come via pins, and he
has been ranked the No. 1 wrestler
in the nation at 158 pounds for the
entire season.
The only thing left for Koll to do
is to win the national championship,
a feat which only one other UNC
wrestler has been able to accomplish
(CD. Mock, at 134 pounds in 1982).
His two third-place finishes have left
a gaping hole in an otherwise over
crowded mantle.
"He could have just as easily been
a three-time national champion,"
UNC coach Bill Lam said. "It's a one
time shot, like the Olympics. If you're
hurt, or you're sick, you might be the
best one, but if you're not the best .
that day, you don't get it. Barring any
injuries or sickness, I just don't see
anybody beating him."
Tracing the reason behind Koll's
success isnt difficult, according to the
man himself. "I think I win more
because I hate to lose," he said. "I
can't stand losing. I hated losing to
my brothers. I hate to lose to
anybody. I still have nightmares
about my losses at nationals."
Lam, referring to his senior's
competitiveness, said, "Rob is an
incredibly strong-willed individual,
which is both good and bad. At
certain times, he has his own way he
likes to do things, and he's a good
enough athlete that he can do them
and get away with them. Some of the
other kids aren't.
"He's lucky in his dad having been
a coach," Lam continued. "He
learned good technique at a very early
age, and he's developed a feel for
wrestling that you just don't teach."
"We needed help down below,
especially with the rebounding, and
I did the job as well as I could," Scott
said after the game. With Ferrell
suffering from a painful injury to the
tailbone, Tech had no choice but to
depend on their sizable freshman for
additional scoring and for work down
low against North Carolina's "Mon-
ster Tot."
The results were plainly evident in
the second half as Scott pulled down
five defensive boards and helped to
hold his fellow big-bottomed compet
itor to a meager four points and four
rebounds in the second half.
With each clear, Scott slapped the
ball powerfully into his left hand,
accompanied with a primal grunt that
would frighten pit bulls.
Tech has come to depend on Scott
so much that the final play of the
game was set for him, highly unusual
for a freshman. "On the last play we
were going to Scott," Cremins said.
"The play was for me to come off
the screen up top," said Scott.
"Unfortunately, right after I got open
Duane was looking the other way."
The loss was clearly a hard one to
take, for Tech played extremely well
and deserved to win the game.
Nevertheless, Scott will only get
better and continue to demonstrate
a versatility that will plug further gaps
in Bobby Cremins' program.
Tar Heels are eligible to play at the
Smith Center because NCAA regu
lations allow a team to play at home
for the first and second rounds only.
Taken from both upper and lower
levels, 200 tickets will be available to
students. They must have a valid
student I.D., athletic pass and reg
istration card to purchase tickets.
Cash only will be accepted. A limit
of one ticket set per student will be
in effect. Tickets not bought by Feb.
