Smoke Signals. Wednesday. February 19, 1969—Page 3 Inframural scenes William Brown . . . offensive giant for Braves Six footer plays like a giant for Braves By SPEEDY SKINNER “Willie is the best offensive player I’ve ever coached,” said Coach William Brown. Willie is a top ball handler and this “offen sive giant” iS setting a new school scoring record. He is well on his way with a 26.1 points per game average for the first 12 games. Willie is ranked second in our region with a total of 313 points and is ranked first in the Cavalier-Tar Heel Conference. Brown’s speed and agility thrills fans whereever he goes. He has the uncommon ability to shoot well despite being guarded by taller opponents. Although only 5’10”, Brown has developed his moves to such a great extent he has no trouble getting off his shot. Willie, from Mt. Vernon, N. Y., is one of the finest players Cho wan has ever seen, and the title “giant” fits him like no other title can. Fiore Braves sparkplug for offsensive cage play By SPEEDY SKINNER In 1966, Louis Fiore graduate- ed from Hazelton High, Hazel- ton, Pa. The jollowing fall he entered Frederick Military Aca demy and in the fall of 1967 he entered Chowan. Louie is a pre-education ma jor here at Chowan and would eventually like to be a teacher- coach and coach basketball. At the present time he is not sure of what school he will attend in the fall, but he is sure he will go somewhere he can play the best ball. Louie is the Braves’ “spark plug.” He makes the team click through his play making and leadership. He is instrumental in getting the Braves’ fast break moving and his ball hawking abiUty has pulled the Braves through some tough situations. Fiore’s speed and hustle ignites the Braves’ offense, but his real asset to the team is numerous assists by hitting his open team mates. Louie, “with eyes in the back of his head,” is essential to the success of the team. He leads the team in assists with a 13.4 average per game, with his best game being played this year against Mr. Olive. He scor- LOUIE FIORE ed 21 points, had 8 rebounds and made 16 assists. Louie is very optimistic about the Conference Tournament, scheduled to be played at the College of Albermarle March 25-27. He says, “we will win the tournament, without a doubt!” The Smoke Signals staff wish es Louie and the team the best of luck. Record rebounder By SPEEDY SKINNER Harry Flipping, the Cavalier-Tar Heel Conference’s shortest center, leads the conference in rebounds. Flipping, of Waynesboro, Va., is a deceiving 6’2”, 170 pounder. Coach McCraw said, “Flipping is the best rebounder I have ever seen for his height.” Flip has outstanding jumping ability and great timing. He is an aggressive ball player and leads the conference in rebounding with an 18.1 average per game for the first 13 games. In our region he is ranked number one among all the schools. Flip has grabbed 237 rebounds in 13 games. Todd McConnell is ranked second on the team with 13.4 per game, and William Brown is third with a 13.0 per game average.
