Rinker takes over this year from veteran Brevard running coach Norm . Witek whose Tornadoes have won the Na- ^ tional Junior Collegiate Athletic Associa tion cross-country national championship for the last four years. “He’s got the horses,” said President Billy Greer, “and he’s got the know-how. We could have looked the entire country ^ over and not found a finer cross-country coach; he’s going to run with it,” Presi dent Greer said emphatically. Coach Rinker looks at this year’s team as a “good mix of experience with a lot of good young people coming in,” adding, “I’ve been impressed with their summer work.” This year’s fall schedule for the men’s and women’s cross-country teams include seven meets, beginning on Sept. 13 at Wake Forest, one home meet against UNC-Charlotte and Furman on Oct. 23, and climaxing with the NJCAA National Championshiop on Nov. 8 in Hagerstown, My. “It’s a very ambitious schedule,” said Coach Rinker.

Men’s Soccer Head Coach Don Scar borough can’t hide his enthusiasm. “This truly could be the best season in Brevard College soccer history,” he said. “I’m overly optimistic.” Not only are his returning players last year’s basic starting line-up which carved out a healthy 11-5-1 record, but Coach Scar borough calls his new recruits “far above your average for a typical two-year school.” And he predicts, “It’s going to be a super year.” Among the recruits are: David Chun, a midfielder from Garland, Texas, where he was named the MVP in the Texas State High School Tournament, Division II; Joseph Brooks, a Liberian soccer star; Scott Hubbard, a defender from Winter Park, Fla.; and Mike Taylor, an outstan ding player from Erwin High School, who last year was honored for Most Goals Scoared and Best Offensive Player.
