Men's tennis swamps Wake
in second straight ACC win
By BOB McCROSKEY
Stan Writer
For North Carolina men's tennis
coach Allen Morris, the birthday pres
ents just keep coming.
One day after he turned 58, Morris'
Tar Heels gave him the second of what
he hopes is a trilogy of birthday gifts by
downing Wake Forest 8-1 in ACC ac
tion at the Tennis Center.
"Any time you can get an ACC win,
it feels good," Morris said. "I thought
we played well coming off that emo
tional (5-4) victory against Clemson on
Sunday."
UNC improved to 15-7 overall, 5-1
in the ACC, while Wake dropped to 7
1 5 and 0-6 in the conference.
At the outset of the match, it ap
peared that UNC's only opponent would
be the weather. Blustery winds and
overcast skies set the tone of things to
come for the Demon Deacons.
North Carolina jumped quickly into
the lead in every singles match, as each
Tar Heel took the first set of his respec
tive match. Leading the onslaught was
junior Andre Janasik playing in the
fifth slot against Lawrence Kiey. Jana
sik was so overpowering that most of
Kiey's returns found more net than the
UNC basketball team did against Ar
kansas. Then the threat of rain became a
reality, and play was suspended for 61
minutes. Wake was able to get a brief
respite, but the rain only postponed the

Despite another successful season,
the UNC softball team simply cannot
figure out how to defeat the University
of South Carolina. The Tar Heels
dropped two to the Gamecocks Tues
day, by scores of 4-0 and 2-1 , at Finley
Softball Field. South Carolina has now
beaten UNC 1 1 straight times, dating
back to February 22,4988. The sweep
dropped UNC's record to 27-14 and
brought USC's up to 37-1 1.
"It's frustrating," Tar Heel coach
Donna Papa said, "because one of our
goals this year was to beat South Caro
lina." The games saw South Carolina stop
North Carolina's offense with tremen
dous pitching and defense. On the
mound, pitchers Angie Lear and Char
ity Bailland held the Tar Heels to a total
of one run and six hits. Lear hurled a
three-hit shutout in the first matchup
and pitched three perfect innings in the
second for the save.
On defense, the Gamecocks com
mitted only two errors. It was softball
the way it's supposed to be played:
Shut down your opponent with strong
pitching and defense, and just let your
offense supply you with runs.
.; In the first game, South Carolina
jumped out of the gates early. All
America center fielder Tricia Popow
ski led off against UNC pitcher Tracy
Brower with a triple to right field. Third

However, Wake did put up a fight
before relenting to the stronger Tar
Heels. Thomas Tanner grabbed the first
UNC singles victory with a 6-2, 6-3
win over Brian Powell. Freshman Sean
Steinour put North Carolina up two
matches to one with his 6-1 , 6-3 triumph
over Brian Martin. David Sussman
fought back from a 2-1 deficit in the
first set to beat Wake's Mike Dilworth
6-2, 6-4. Top-seeded Tar Heel sopho
more Bryan Jones then defeated Erik
Simanis in straight sets, 6-1 and 6-4.
That left Janasik and senior Don
Johnson. Following a 6-0 lashing of
Kiey in the opening set, Janasik fell to
Kiey, 6-4, after the rain delay in the
second set.
"I think the rain delay might have
hurt us a little," Morris said. "When we
came back after the delay, we weren't
as sharp."
Janasik quickly regained his compo
sure. After finding himself on the short
end of a 1-0 score in the third set,
Janasik took six of the next eight games
to win the set and the match.
With UNC leading 5-0 in singles
competition, Wake's Jorge Sedeno
provided the Deacons with their only
bright spot on the day. After dropping
the first set to Johnson by a score of 6
1 , things didn't look good for Sedeno.
But after the rain delay, Sedeno came
out smoking and spanked Johnson 6-2
in the second set. Sedeno went on to
baseman Stacey Agee followed by
reaching on an error. South Carolina
then cashed in on this scoring opportu
nity, as singles by shortstop Dawn
Lantiere and right fielder Kris Kor
donowy brought home Popowski and
Agee.
The Gamecocks added some extra
padding in the third and seventh in
nings. In the third, second baseman
Michelle Delloso reached base on an
error and later scored on a single by
Kordonary. In the seventh frame, Agee
singled and was brought home on a
base hit by Lantiere.
UNC simply could not get anything
going against Lear, who was nothing
short of royalty on the mound. Only
one Tar Heel runner reached second
base in the game.
Papa felt that in the first game South
Carolina just plain hit better. "They
outhit us," she said. "You can't win
games when you don't hit. They came
out swinging the bats. They're an aggressive-hitting
team, and they put us
on the defensive right from the begin
ning. When you're down two runs, you
have to play catch-up all the way, and
then you start to press."
In the second matchup, the Game
cocks crossed the plate first again as
Popowski ignited Gamecock engines.
The center fielder led off with a single,
advanced on a sacrifice by Agee and
scored on a passed ball. The Tar Heels
answered back, however, as UNC's
own offensive catalyst, freshman So
ny a Bright, led off with a walk. She
advanced on a single by center fielder
Tracey Narwid and scored on a fielder's

win the third set, 7-6, in a tiebreaker.
The doubles matches were nothing
more than a formality. Wake defaulted
the second doubles slot due to an injury
to Simanis. The No. 3 tandem of Jones
and Joe Frierson made short work of
the Deacons by dismantling them in
straight sets. Wake was no match for
the serving and exceptional net play of
Jones and Frierson.
With nothing but pride on the line,
Wake gave all it had in the No. 1 doubles
match. But on this day, that just wasn't
good enough.
Steinour and Chris Mumford cap
tured the first set, 6-3, for the Tar Heels.
The Deacons battled back in the second
set as each team traded games. UNC
was nursing a 3-2 lead when Wake held
its serve and was able to break that of
the Tar Heels.
Returning the favor, North Carolina
jumped back into the lead by taking the
next two games. UNC then went on to
win the tiebreaker and take the set by a
margin of 7-5.
One more ACC victory by the Tar
Heels would give Morris that third
birthday present an ACC champion
ship. "If we can continue to play this well,"
Morris said, "we have a good chance of
winning at Duke on Thursday. It's our
last ACC game, and if we win it, we're
the champions."
choice by third baseman Michelle Rupp.
In the second inning, USC pulled
ahead again with one run. First base
man Andrea Beall led off with a single
to right-center. After two batters were
retired, catcher Leslie Adams stroked a
double, scoring Beall and providing
South Carolina with all the runs it
needed. USC did have opportunities to
score throughout the game, but North
Carolina hurler Yvette Davis' clutch
pitching left 10 South Carolina runners
on base. .
North Carolina had ample opportu
nity to come back but could not cash in
with runners in scoring position. UNC
left runners on second and third in the
fourth inning and a runner on third in
the fifth. Mental errors also took part in
UNC's failure to score in the late goings,
as two Tar Heels popped up while at
tempting to bunt.
"I'll be honest, I was upset with
those (errors)," she said. "With a team
like South Carolina, they've proven
themselves the last few years. They're
always a good team, and you can't
make those kind of mistakes against a
team like that because they'll jump all
over you.
"You've got to maintain for seven
innings every out, every play and
you've got to make adjustments. When
a team continually barks on you, and
the same person does the same thing,
you've got to make an adjustment. If
you don't, you get hurt."
The mystery continues as UNC at
tempts to solve The Case of the Stolen
Diamond and regain possession of a
victory from South Carolina.
