and CAROL HARTMAN
The Guilford College Soccer
Team traveled to Erskine,
South Carolina, to play in the
Area V Tournament this
past week. Erskine College
was ranked by the power rating
as number 1 in the nation
for small colleges.
Within the first 30 seconds
of the match, Erskine had
scored the first goal. One
minute later, they scored
again, making the score 2-0.
With 15 minutes left in the first
half, the Quakers came back
to score on a Bobby Lloyd
corner kick. Five minutes
later, Bobby Propster scored
again to tie the score at 2-2.
One minute into the second
half, Erskine scored to take a
3-2 lead. Two minutes later,
they managed to score again
and increase their lead to 4-2.
After some steady hard fought
playing, Bobby Propster again
scored, this time with 16
minutes left in the half, on a
one-on-one with the Erskine
goalie. Neither offensive team
was able to break through to
the opponents net, and the
final score stood at 4-3.

Team Captures District Championship
The Guilford College Soccer
Team captured its first NAIA
District 26 championship
Saturday afternoon with a
1-0 sudden death overtime
victory over Pfeiffer College.
Al Cook drove home a 25-yard
indirect kick for the winning
goal with just 30 seconds gone
in sudden death for the Quaker
victory. Ironically, it was
Cook's goal in the 10th over
time a year ago that handed
the Quakers a 3-2 decision
over Pfeiffer in a regular season
match.
The Quakers had reached
the finals of the district play
offs with a 2-1 upset of top
seeded Warren Wilson College.
Cook assisted on the first
Quaker goal in that game as he
fed sophomore winger Bob
Lloyd for a 1-0 halftime lead.
Warren Wilson tied the
score midway through the
second half, and Steve Hicks,
the only senior on the Guilford
team, won the game with
eight minutes left in the
contest as he headed home a
cross by Bob Propster from
10 yards out.
The victory over Pfeiffer
climaxed a three-game week
of soccer that saw the Quakers
drop a close 2-1 decision to
the Tar Heels of the University
that the reason they lost the
game was because they were
mentally unprepared for it.
They also agreed that Erskine
had the best offense -of any
team they had faced this year.
Guilford's defense did not
come out with any intensity
and allowed Erskine to score
two goals that they shouldn't
have. Erskine's early scores
dampened the teams spirits,
but they recovered very well.
The general consensus was
that if the team had played to
capability, they would have
won the game.
This loss ended a fine season
for the Quakers. During the
season, injuries hurt the team
and many players were forced
to play injured. The team
sometimes had problems
getting the ball into the net
and some of the players felt
they could have done a better
job with more accurate scoring
attempts. They also agreed
that the final record could have
been better if they had won
some of the matches that
could have gone either way.
The team sported an excel
lent 13-7-2 record for the
season.
of North Carolina, the second
place finisher in the Atlantic
Coast Conference. Lloyd, a
sophomore from Trenton,
N.J., got the first half goal
that gave Guilford a 1-0 half
time lead, with Hicks, a
Chapel Hill, N.J., native,
getting credit for the assist.
"Defense was a real key to
our success last week,"
commented Quaker coach
Ray Alley. "Against Carolina
we played very well, but had
a flat streak in the second
half that allowed them to
dominate the action for about
15 minutes. They got both
goals during that time. Against
Warren Wilson and Pfeiffer we
were able to overcome a tend
dency to flatten out, and played
hard throughout both contests"
The Quaker defense was
anchored by Trenton junior
Mark Cubbertey, Conn.

Quakers Drop Tournament Final
BY DAVE HOTCHKISS
In an effort to improve their
record to 2-1, the Guilford
College Basketball team will
meet Liberty Baptist tonight
at 8:15. This will be one of
only nine home games. The
Quakers will be rebounding
from a dissappointing loss to
Milligan College over the
weekend in the championship
sophomore Richard Wall, and
Lynbrook, N.Y., sophomore
Ed Alonge. Don Hemrick,
a sophomore from Saddle
River, N.J., also was excep
tional in both playoff games
at fullback, along with reserve
fullbacks Chong Lee, a junior
from Arlington, Va., and Brian
Oswald, a sophomore from
Abington, Pa.
Cook, a sophomore from
Conyers, Ga., was outstanding
at midfield, as was Trenton
freshman Joe Angelini. Bob
Sanguinetti, a sophomore
and the fourth Trenton area
starter for the Quakers, was
superb in the goal, and
collected his seventh shutout
of the year against Pfeiffer.
The Quakers then advanced
to Area V playoff action on
Thursday against Erskine
College in Due West, S.C.
Update on Brad Anderson:
A few weeks ago the Guitford
ian published an article about
Brad Anderson's physics
thesis. The thesis concerned
using the computer to dispatch
emergency vehicles and part
of the requirements wa that
Brad write an article for possi
ble publication in one of
several professional fire fighters'
round of the Milligan Tourna
ment. Milligan tallied 94 points
to Guilford's 88. In addition,
five Milligan players scored in
double figures.
Coach Jack Jenson believes
that the loss was a result of
poor defense. For example,
Milligan outscored Guilford by
16 points in the last 12 minutes
of Saturday night's contest.
"We will have to improve
our defensive play in order
to have a successful season,"
said Jensen. "We scored 88
points, and Milligan still won."
A high point in the tourna
ment for the Quakers was
the play of freshman center
Bill Meyler. Playing in his first
college contests, Meyler
accumulated 38 points and 18
rebounds. As a result of his
fine play, Meyler was selected
to the Milligan All-Tournament
team.
"I decided to start Bill
because he was clearly out
playing Paul Dreschler (last
year's center) in the scrim
mages," stated Jensen. "Bill
will have to improve in defense,
however."
Guilford also received fine
play from junior guard Gary
Devlin, another All-Tourna-
journals. Since that time his
article has been accepted by
Fire Chief. It is Brad's hope
that such work as his will
make fire departments aware
that computers can be used
not only to store information,
but to manipulate it. Congra
tulations, Bradley.

ment player. Devlin pumped
in 27 points during the Milli
gan game and tallied 11
assists. In the 74-66 win over
Mars Hill on the previous
night, Devlin scored 11 points
in addition to several assists.
Sophomore Al King, a
transfer student from New
York City, also provided
consistent play for the Quakers
as he scored 22 points, with
eight assists in the Tourna
ment.
In comparing last year's
squad to this year's, Coach
Jensen (jointed out that "the
physical talent is clearly
better this year. We have
more players who are over 6'5"
than last year." Those players
include starting forwards Elton
Gross and Mike Cherry, centers
Meyler and Dreschler, forward
Greg Hopson, and guard King.
Despite the awesome height
that Guilford possesses, Coach
Jensen is clearly dissappointed
with the team's output thus
far. "The way we're playing
now, I would be surprised
if we topped the .500 mark for
the whole season. Our defense
has to improve if we expect
to win some games."
