Brevard College — On April
3rd, the Brevard College Track
Team placed 4th out of 15 colleges
at the Western Carolina Relays.
Brevard’s Team consists of 18
men and was one of only two
Junior Colleges competing.
Campbell College took home a
Meet high of four first place
trophies, while Brevard and
Emory & Henry sent three
performers into the winning
circle.
Brevard’s Jerphy Mcllwain
won the shot put while setting a
meet record of 53’2”. This mark
also ties Brevard’s outdoor
school record which he set last
year.
Paul Heilman won the high
jump at 6’8” setting a W. N.
Relay record as well as a new
school record, breaking the old
record of 6’6” set by him last
year.
Brevard’s distance medley
team took first place, beating out
Western Carolina and Carson
Newman with a time of 10:26.7.
Gary Carter an the 880 in 2:01.
Greg Bennett ran the 440 in 50.8
and Chuck Roberts turned in a
time of 3:10.7 for three-quarters.
Terry Wolfe anchored the medley
with a mile of 4:23.3.
Fourth place finishers for
Brevard were Kevin Baumann in
the 120 high hurdle and the mile
relay and David Comer in the 6-
mile.
Fifth place finishers were Scott
Knight in the shot put, Tim
Barnhill in the pole vault, and the
880 and 2-mile relays.
Jerphy Mcllwain in the discus
was Brevard’s only sixth place
finisher for the Meet.
Baseball Nine Golfers Second
In Labor Pains At Glen Cannon
As the baseball season began
six weeks ago, there were hopes
that Brevard would finish above
the waterline that normally
occupies our fine campus in the
spring. Now with the season
coming to a close, the flood may
have missed our area, but our
team’s record has been inun
dated with losses. The only win
that was tattered a perfect record
was an early victory over a
Spartanburg squad. This past
week Spartanburg revenged that
defeat, 8-5.
Though this season did not
bring the results wished for,
accomplishments have been
made. Of top priority was the
reconditioning of the baseball
diamond, which adds an air of
class to the campus. To look from
the student union and see the blen
fo brown and green is to see a
stream reflect sunlight. It looks
clean, and its cleanliness is
something we all can enjoy.
Secondly, there may be
scholarships available for some
of the players transfering from
Brevard. Rumor has it that
Gardner-Webb sent a scout down
to watch some of the players, but
no results have been aired.
As we reflect back, I suspect it
can be safely said that the hopes
for a winning record was perhaps
too high of an aim for the initial
season in the sport that was
dropped years ago. The effort
that our squad made has been
greatly appreciated, and to the
Class of 76 .. . perhaps all the toil
you placed in this rejuvenation
program will shine from our
trophy case in future years.
For the first time in at least two
years, a Brevard team has
bettered an Anderson team!
In the final regular season
tournament of conference teams,
Brevard managed to outduel a
tough field, and strong north
winds to take second place on
their home course. Spartanburg
won the event with 627 total
Anderson finished third, followed
by Wingate, Montreat-A, and
Lees-McRae.
Low medalist for the tour
nament was Terry Chlystun of
Spartnaburg with a 155. Tom
Sluiter finished second with 157,
but had the lead going into the
36th hole. From that tee, Torn hi
his ball into a ditch and couldn
find the ball for a penalty stroke.
He then chose to walk back to the
tee to hit for position but the
gamble failed and Tom took a
seven on the par 4 18th hole.

ference:

Brevard, N. C. — Two out- OlvmpicS
standing members of the •' ^
Brevard College basketball team
for the past two years have
signed grants-in-aid to continue
their collegiate playing careers
at Presbyterian College in
Clinton, S. C.
Tom Horonzy and Doug
Johnson, both stalwarts in
leading the Tornados to a 16-11
record this past season, signed to
go to Presbyterian while Tornado
coach John Meyerhoff and
Presbyterian coach Larry Burch
looked on.
Horonzy, a 6’5” Pennsylvania
native, set a career record for
rebounds at Brevard, averaging
11.1 over a 55 game two year
span. He averaged a little better
than nine points per game over
that same period.
Johnson, a 6’3” native of
Raleigh, led the Tornados this
past season with a 16.6 average
per game. His field goal per
centage was also high among the
Tornados.
Coach Meyerhoff had mixed
emotions as he watched his two
star performers sign. “I’m tided
to death that these two fine young
men will be able to continue their
athletic and scholastic careers at
Presbyterian, but I’m sure gong
to miss them here,” he grinned.
“I wish them nothing but the
best, and I know that they are
going to be a tremendous asset to
Coach Burch and his squad, as
they have been during their two
years here,” he concluded.

Coach Burch, a former Tor
nado cage star and head
basketball coach until going to
Presbyterian several years ago,
stated that he was delighted that
the two Brevard cagers had
elected to join his Blue Horse
cagers.
“These are two blue chip
performers, and with Tom’s
great rebounding ability to go
with Doug’s excellent shooting
eye, they can’t help but be a big
hnnst to our program at
Presbyterian. We’re looking for
great things from both of these
young men,” he remarked.
Both Horonzy and Johnson are
outstanding students as well as
fine athletes. Both carry high B
averages in their studies and
were recently selected to appear

“We are very proud to offer
great Olympic package trips,
with excellent tickets to major
events, plus a wide range of
accommodations,” said Sandy
Weiner, the overall coordinator
of the Olympic project.
The Summer Olympics run
from July 16 through August 1
and promise to be one of the best
ever. Furthermore, the Olympic
games are unlikely to be this
close to the United States until
the 1990’s, if ever.
Tickets available include track
and field, volleyball, soccer,
equestrian, basketball, and other
important sports. The lodging
ranges from deluxe youth hotels,
through private homes in
downtown Montreal, to complete
service motels.
Prices start at $193 per person
for eight days of tickets and eight
nights of lodging in a youth hotel,
through $384 per person for the
motel package.
“Many people think the games
are all sold out, but this is not so,”
said Mr. Weiner. “We are
pleased that because of our ac
cess to tickets and lodging, lots of
people from this area will now be
able to see the most important
sporting event of our time, in a
city as close and as attractive as
Montreal.”
Mr. Weiner says that anyone
who is interested should get in
touch with him at the Convention
Specialists, 32 Court Street,
Brooklyn, New York, 11201. His
telephone number is (212) 624-
0686.
