A SPORTS SHORT
BY ED BUTTERWORTH
An Intricate part of every athletic team is the secondary unit,
the unglorified athlete who participates seldom,
vice Is invaluable. Team depth is often the fac or ^ P .
a championship team, for without a secondary unit, too much
pressure rests on the starting squad.
St. Andrews bowling team, which has always placed first or
second in DIAC standings, has displayed outstanding team ep
this season. Of its ten man roster, six are averaging better than
170 in league competition, and the remaining
the mid or high sixties. It is comfortable to know that should toe
starting players relax, there is an ample reserve unit capaoie
of maintaining a team’s chapionship style.
St. Andrews bowling team coach Dave McLean has wor e
term efforts well this season, for all members have participated
in DIAC action. The credit for such a successful season thus
far can be attributed to the team’s depth. Secondary men (.those
who have not bowled enough league games to qualify for
DIAC top ten bowlers) Judson Duffee (173), Joe Junod (17p, Kim
Vohs, Randy Wolfe, Tim Tate, and George Ducker, all of ^honi
are averaging in the' I60’s, have provided the momentum that
has placed St. Andrews in a plausible record breaking situation.
Should this reserve unit carry out its support this Saturday
in the final match against the College of Charleston, St. Andrews
will not only capture the DIAC competition, but will perhaps, with
a clean sweep, set an unprecedented 34-6 DIAC record.

The Knight keglers took an
easy four point victory over
Lynchburg College last Satur
day at the Lynchburg Lanes in
Pittman Plaza,
Defeating their opponents by
60, 52, and 58 pins respec
tively, the Knights won the
match play 2610 to 2440. Lead-
Ing the scoring were John Btir-
chill with a 213 game and Ed
Butterworth with a 554 set.
St. Andrews presenjly car
ries a 30-6 team record, with
a final match this Saturday at
home against the College of
Charleston. Charleston has a
26-10 record and needs a four,
point sweep against St. Andrews:
to tie for DIAC champions.
The Varsity Bowling team
will journey to Rocky Mount,
North Carolina and N.C. Wes
leyan College to compete in the
5th Annual Dixie Conference
Bowling Tournament. The keg
lers from Lynchburg College
will be defending the title they
captured last year in Lynch
burg.
THE LANCE
mi
THURSDAY, FEB. 15,
It is tournament time again,
and the Knights of St. Andrews
are out for blood after an im
pressive season-ending win
over Lynchburg College last
Friday.
The vengeance minded SA
squad came back from a 9
point halftime deficit to out
class Lynchburg, 77-74, before
a rather sparse crowd of SA
supporters. Lynchburg cai^
out shooting a devastating 60%
for the first half, and coupled
with a tight zone defense that
kept the Knights far outside,
kept SA unbalanced enough that
they could shoot only 30% for the
half.
Unable to penetrate Lynch
burg’s defense, SA could only
fire from far outside, and Ken

McGinnis and Craig Hannas hit
often enough to keep the Knights
in the game if not In hot pur
suit. SA could not seem to ge
in position to rebound for much
of the half, and this too was to
Lynchburg's advantage, as they
completely controlled the first
half.
The Knights never stopped
hustling, but at the buzzer
Lynchburg had shot their way to
a 44-35 lead. However, as is
becoming typical of Boyd’s
Commandos, the second half
was a different story.
SA went to a full court press
shortly after the half began,
perhaps with memories of
Greensboro’s press last week,
and forced several turnovers
on which the Knights were able
to capitalize.
As usual, the principal thei-
ves were McGinnis, Gredlein
and Starling, and with this in
spiring example of excellence
for Christ the Knights found
the range and began pouring In
buckets from all over the court.
Individual performances
were noteworthy at this point;
Madman Phil Blundell almost
broke up the game with a 9
polnt-6 rebound splurge late in
the game that set the pace for
a frantic ending.
Decisive in the outburst that
put SA ahead was Gary Gred-
lein’s 9 points in the second
half, and Steve Litchford’s
well-timed 3 in the final minute
and a half of play.
Hannas, the Jersey comet,
was all over the place again,
getting 24 points and 9 rebounds
to lead the Knights in both de
partments, as he did all sea
son, ending with a 17.1 average
and 11 rebounds a game. His
personal highs for the season
were a 38 point performance
against Wilmington Jan. 16 and
a 26 r.b. night against Char
leston Jan 30.
With the Dixie Conference
tournament starting Thursday
SA should definitely be consi-
dered in the running.
The Knights are a better ball
club than most in the league
and ‘ ‘have traditionally been a
tournament team” according to
Athletic Director Rufus Hack-
ney.
Mr. Hackney also comment-
ed that we would be consider,
ed a dark horse in the tour-
nament, “but with a home court
advantage and with ENTHUS-
lASTIC STUDENT SUPPORT SA
just might pull some upsets.”
The semi finals games w'ui
be played tonight at 7 and 9
p.m. with Greensboro seeing
its first action in the nightcap
against the winner of the SA-
Wesleyan game. The champion-
ship game will be played at 9
p.m. Saturday night, imme
diately following the consola
tion game.
