Mars Hill Ladies Defeat Baber-Scotia In Coach Pat Sams was given a "gut ty" performance by his group of in experienced basketball players as the Mars Hill ledies won over Barber-Scotia College in their first game of the season at Mars Hill Col lege on Tuesday, Nov. 24, 77-73. Returning only two starters and one reserve from a 1980-81 team which had the worst record in Mars Hill College women's basketball history, the women started very slowly, falling behind 8-2. Eventual ly, with outstanding shooting by former Madison High School player Holly Hough, the team took the lead at 19-18 midway through the first half. With offensive support from former Freedom High School player Brenda Caldwell and Karen Jarvis, a player for Hendersonville High School last year, Hough continued her hot hand as Mars Hill took a 37-31 lead into the dressing room at half-time. Hough had 17 points at the intermission . A tight zone defense and improved shooting by the total team gave Mars Hill an eleven point lead with approximately five minutes to go in the game. Hough, Caldwell, and Jar vis continued to shoot well; but they received support from point guard Lisa McFadden, a player for South Mecklenburg High School in Charlotte last year, and Joanne Christopher, a Virgin Islands pro duct. Reserves May Hasenauer, Karen Hefener (former Mitchell High School player), and Beth McCluskey (sophomore from Pinecrest High School) made key contributions to the victory. Sophomore Hough finished with 27 points and 15 re bounds, both career highs for her. Caldwell, also a second year player, had 10 points, 9 rebounds, and 6 assists while freshman Christopher had 9 points and 7 rebounds. Jarvis, also a freshman, had 12 points. Lady Lions Defeat Warren Wilson The Mars Hill Women's Team dominated by freshmen won their second game in a row over Warren Wilson at Mars Hill College on Saturday night, Nov. 28 by a score of 84-53. Mars Hill Jumped off to a quick lead, but excellent shooting by Jenny Griffin and Denise Fair gave Warren Wilson a 32-30 lead at half time. Holly Hough had 8 points in the first half for the Lady Lions. A halftime lecture by Coach Pat Sams inspired the Mars Hill College starting lineup of Hough, B rends Caldwell, Lisa McFadden, Karen Jarvis, and Joanne Christopher to score 18 of the first 20 points to take a 48-34 lead after five minutes of the second half. This was ac complished by a tenacious zone defense and excellent passing. Reserves Karen Hefner, Lynette Heed, Amy Hasenhauer, and Beth Mc Cluskey helped extend the lead to over 30 points. Freshmen Lisa McFadden of Charlotte and Karen Jarvis of Hendersonville each scored 18 points while sophomore Holly Hough of Mars Hill and freshman Joanne Christopher of the Virgin Islands had 14 points apiece.
