PAGE FOUR THE LANCE THURSDAY, OCT. Knights Host Lynchburg Today In Key DIAC Tilt BY MARK KLEBER After an Impressive 6-0 opening win over Pfeiffer, the 1970 SA soccer teams hosts the perennial powerhouse from Lynchburg, presently undefeat ed this afternoon at 2:00. Fea turing All-American fullback Eric Wagner, the Hornets pos sess a high scoring offoise and solid defense that has beaten Methodist, VMI, and William and Mary. Teamwork, a tight defense, well-balanced scoring and depth characterized the Knight’s opening game. Passing was brilliant and assists on four goals depicts the unselfish style of play. Led by sophomore full back John Rhoderlck, the de fense constantly stifled the Pfe iffer attack limiting them to but eleven shots at the goal. Two-time AU-Amerlcan goal ie and co-captata, Craig Han nas recorded six saves, two on penalty kicks, while Bob Buf fington played a flawless fourth quarter with three saves, one coming on a penalty kick. Rho- derlck’s defense at midfield helped the Knights to spend most of the afternoon in Pfei ffer’s territory. Transfer Bob Hasse, junior fullback, dis played the agresslve defense which earned him All-Con ference honors at Brevard Jr. College. John “Beef” La- Guardia, sophomore fullback, effectively intimidated the op position with his 244 lb. frame and booming kicks. Sophomores Dave Dufek and Steve “sliding tackle” Brown along with senior Hamp Sewell also turned in scrappy performances at the fullback slot. John Daniel led the scoring attack with three goals, while Don Cooper, Hen ry Freeman, and Ralph Nes- blt recorded one syiiece. Coop er also collected two assists and showed flashes of his All- South credentials. The most spectacular play of the day was Freeman’s goal as he lofted the ball from thirty yards out past an astonished goalie. Thanks to Cougar trainer Tracy James’ efforts, senior forward Ralph Nesbit’s ankle has heal ed remarkably well. Nesblt re - corded two assists and played well despite his injured ankle. Senior “come lately” Glenn Hundertmark showed potential, but he needs experience. St. Andrews’ depth was reflected in its maintenance of a well- balanced attack despite fre quent substitutions. Defense should be the strong point of this year’s team. Com posed of all veterans and a capable transfer, it will give opponents a fit. The return of All- District Dan Grif fiths, a sophomore fullback, presently hampered by an an kle Injury, will strenghten the defense. If the Pfeiffer game Is an Indicator of future hap penings, then the traditionally weak offense of the Knights will no longer exist. John Dan iel with seven scores in three games should be “big shooter” SA has looked for since Yank Albers’ graduation. This year’s schedule Is simi lar to last years’ although more demanding at the beginning. Lynchburg and Belmont Abbey are two of the toughest teams In the area. Abl>ey currently unbeaten, has made the Area 5 playoffs six times In the last seven years. Veterans will re call a hard-fought 2-1 win over Belmont Abbey in 1968, giv ing them a berth in the Nation al Championships. For the first time In the school’s history, a junior var sity soccer team will be field ed. Tentatively four games have "Hat Trick” Daniel smells paydirt and turns It on. been scheduled with their open er October 10 at 2:00 against Winowa Academy from George town, S. C. The 1969 South Carolina State Champs are coached by former SA soccer star Yank Albers. A new soccer filed should revolutionize the sport some what. Formerly 59 yards wide, the new field is 75 yards wide. This assists in spreading out our attack and gives our play ers experience with the wider field that so many opponents have. Its proximity to the dorms will hopefully result in bigger crowds. Impressed by the teamwork, passing, an offense that clicked, and a strong defense. Coaches Hackney and Klnne seems op timistic about today’s games and the rest of the season.

Kings Mountain has one victory against two setbacks, one in overtime to Meek, while Winston-Salem is 0-3, a poor indicator of their caliber of play. With seven members of the 1969 KM championship team now playing for Orange, their main asset would have to be experience.

Playing just defensively are Jack Rich mond, Tom Trotter and Ron Hayden. Most of Orange’s team play both offense and defense. Their lack of depth may be crucial as the season pre- gresses.
