JANUARY 14, 1972
Slump Stopped by Win Over UNC-A
M.L. Carr paced Guilford
with a 26 point, 12 rebound
effort Wednesday night as he
and his teamates pulled out of a
three game losing slump with a
118-104 denial of UNC-
Asheville.
Ted East, Jerry Crocker, and
Tom Ennis scored 24, 22, and
20 respectively as the Quakers
poured in 40 of 64 field goals
for a torrid 62.5%, and also
dropped in 38 charity shots.
Playing in the gymnasium,
Guilford avenged their first loss
of the season, 81-79 before
Christmas to Asheville, and also
helped erase memories of
the Monday night defeat at the
hands of Lenoir Rhyne, first loss
in twenty games there for
Guilford.
The Quakers, led by Carr
with sixteen points in the first
half, played as if determined not
to let another possible win slip
away as had happened for three
games past. They outrebounded
Asheville 48-20, and" drew 33
fouls on the opposition.
Trailing 16-13 with 14:46 to
go in the first half, Guilford
went ahead on a hook shot by
Carr and two free throws by
Greg Jackson. The lead went to
five as East dropped in two more

The juniors on Guilford's
basketball team have lost only
five and seven games in their
first two seasons here. Never had
they seen three games lost
consecutively. Thus it came as a
shock to others besides players
when the Quakers more or less
gave away three straight games

less than five minutes. The
Quakers then yielded eight
consecutive points as the Bull
dogs sliced the margin to ten,
and got the impetus to later pull
within four.
The first time they did so was
at 75-71 with 10:14 to play, and
and their record abruptly slid to
6-4.
Losses to Catawba, Newberry
and Lenoir Rhyne left the team
reeling as they fell behind in the
first half, staged an exciting
countercharge in the second half,
and then fell to pieces and the
opposition triumphed.
they stayed that close until
remained. Guilford then com
bined excellent foul shooting,
something that had been less
than adequate in several previous
games, and faultless long range
scores to blow the Bulldogs out.
Senior forward Crocker
initiated a ten point stretch with
a rebound score as the 6:36
mark went past, and ended it
with a fifteen foot swisher.
Seconds later he had one of
twenty feet, immediately
succeeded by baskets from East
and Carr as the lead shot to
seventeen.
The Quakers scored 118
before it was all over with, the
highest total this season for
them. Ken McKinney tallied 14
in his best game as a freshman,
and other players in the scoring
box were Greg Jackson with 6
and Ray Massengill with the
same number.
Thirty-eight of 45 free throw
attempts went in for Guilford, as
the season record went to 74.
Tom Ennis pulled down nine
rebounds as the Quakers had
their most solid effort this year
in that department, and East and
Crocker had eight apiece. The
6-3, 150 pound McKinney had
five.
The case was not too acute
when the Quakers played
undefeated Catawba, and lost
83-81 when Catawba grabbed
the rebound of a Quaker shot
that would have tied the score
with 20 seconds to go. Guilford
had been down by eleven.
Against Newberry, Guilford
came back from an eleven point
depth to knot the score at 70 all,
but then got only six points in
six minutes while losing 96-90.
Playing Lenoir Rhyne, Guilford
lost its first game in the
crackerbox since February to
1969, by the score of 83-76.
Down by a substantial margin,
the Quakers pulled with two
points but then proved unable to
go farther.
Considerably shaken up after
the Lenoir Rhyne game, Guil
ford players defeated UNC-
Asheville convincingly and
appeared to have corrected at
least some of their mistakes.
They played before the smallest
crowd this year in the gym.
