State to visit UNC ton!

Traditionally, February is a
cruel month for Jim Valvano and
his N.C. State basketball program.
Things just wouldn't be normal in
Raleigh around this time of year
unless the Wolfpack was disap
pointing experts, facing a near
mutiny, mired in a losing streak
of several games and appeared
headed for a typical 7-7 league
finish.
With that established, let's just
say things aren't very normal in
our state capital these days.
I mean, this is February, right?
Then what in the name of Chris
Washburn is N.C. State doing at
the top of the ACC standings? And
please tell me how the Wolfpack
managed to go into Cameron
Indoor Stadium last Saturday and
emerge unscathed, with a 77-74
win over a Duke team that some
say will win the national
championship?
When sixth-ranked North
Carolina (16-3 overall, 5-2 in the
ACC) hosts No. 16N.C.State(15
4, 5-2) tonight at 9 o'clock in the
Smith Center, a share of first place
in the conference will be on the
line. Not only that, but so will the
wait-Hil-March Wolfpack's five
game winning streak.
State's last loss, in fact, was to
the Tar Heels, by a 77-73 count.
In that one, UNC shot an eye
popping 65.9 percent from the
field, compared to just 45.6 for the
Wolfpack.
J.R. Reid had 17 points and
Kevin Madden 16 off Dean
Smith's bench to lead the visitors.
State, pounding the ball relent
lessly inside, got 26 points from
Charles Shackleford and 16 from
his sidekick, Chucky Brown, j

Since that Jan. 24 meeting, tie
Wolfpack has run off narrow
victories over Maryland (83-8 j),

and Duke.
The Wolfpack's performanie

At first glance Sharon Couch I
appears to be a typical freshman. '
However, she is anything but typical. '
Couch happens to be a freshman
sensation who is burning up the
women's track circuit.
In high school Couch, who hails
from Rice, Va., won state titles in a
remarkable four events. At North
Carolina, Couch has encountered an
equally remarkable degree of success.
Both head coach Dennis Craddock
and sprint and speed coach Charles
Foster work closely with Couch.
Although standing a modest 5-foot-6
and weighs 135 pounds, Couch is
an explosive athlete.
"Sharon is a ball of energy, she
keeps things happening all the time,"
Foster said. "Sharon has spirit, and
she brings an awful lot of spirit to
the track team."
Speaking of keeping things hap
pening, Couch already has estab
lished a new UNC long-jump record.
In addition she has qualified for the
NCAAs in both the long jump and
55-meter hurdles competitions.
"Sharon is an exceptional athlete,"
Foster said. "She leads the ACC right
now in the 60-yard dash as well as
the 55-meter dash and hurdles."
Ever since sixth grade, Couch has
been sprinting, jumping and soaring
to new heights on the track. When
asked about her versatility, Couch
said, "I have competed in seven
different track events. I'm basically
a hurdler. That's what got me here,
but the versatility of what I can do
also got me here. I can literally just
about do anything."
What sets Couch apart from other

He may not look like every
body's idea of a cancer specialist.
But there's strong evidence
that your greengrocer has
access to cancer protection you
won't find in any doctor's office.
Like broccoli. Peaches. Cante
loupes. Spinach. And other
sources of Vitamin A related to
lowering the risk of cancer of the
larynx and esophagus. Not to
mention sweet potatoes, carrots,
pumpkin, winter squash, toma
toes, citrus fruits and brussels
sprouts.
. Vegetables such as cabbage,
broccoli, brussels sprouts, kohl
rabi and cauliflower may help
reduce the risk of gastrointesti
nal and respiratory tract cancer.
Fruits and vegetables (and
whole grain cereals such as
oatmeal, bran and wheat) may
help lower the risk of colorectal
cancer.
In short, make sure you do
what your mother always told
you to jdo. Eat your vegetables.

CANCER
SOCIETY
It brings out
the best
in all of u&
UnStsd
Sharon Couch
versatile athletes is that she excels in
every event.
In addition, the diminutive leaper
also embodies everything amateur
athletics should be about. She is a
fierce competitor who always shows
excellent sportsmanship.
"I believe in good sportsmanship,"
Couch said. WI love track because it's
fun."
Couch also feels that traveling
across the country to compete in
different track meets is a great
experience. "Everywhere I go now,
there's always someone there IVe met
before, " she said.
Coming out of high school, Couch
had college offers pouring in from
every corner of the United States. "It
wasn't my big dream to come to
North Carolina, but I love it," she
said. "It's the best place I could be.
"Coach Foster really impressed me.
He's a great hurdler coach, and I'm
a hurdler. Coach Craddock also
convinced me to come here. I think
it's the best college in the United
States, and I love it."
Like every athlete, Couch has set
goals for herself, and hers are very
high. "I want to run the hurdles and
do the long jump in the Olympics,"
she said.
Incredibly, she has already qual
ified in the long jump competition,
and this past weekend at the Millrose
Games in New York, she qualified
for the NCAA hurdles championship.
As the year progresses, Couch will
most certainly get better and better,
Foster believes.
"Speed takes precedence over any
technique," he said. "And what
Sharon does is she applies the speed,
and the technique will come as the
year goes on."
Couch has always followed track
and field contests, and she once had
the opportunity to meet her idol,
Jackie Joyner Kersee, whom many
consider the greatest women's ama
teur athlete in the world.
"She reminds me a lot of myself,"
Couch said. "She's achieved world
prominence, and that's what I think
I can do. I never could say this
confidently before, but I can now. I
really feel good about my ability and
myself."
For now, Couch wears the familiar
blue and white of the University of
North Carolina. In time, though, she
may one day wear the red, white and
blue of her country.
The best days for Sharon Couch,
it seems, are still to come.
