Even more so, it is a very surprising fact that the Big Four has starting quarter backing in the pros; Sonny Jor genson, who graduated from Duke, is playing for the Washington Redskins, and is doing a fabulous job. Norm Snead, from Wake Forest, is calling signals for Phil adelphia and Roman Gabriel, from North Carolina State is quarterbacking a vastly improved Los Angeles Rams team. While they haven’t given the NFL a quarterback, Carolina has quite a few key players in the pro ranks. This list is topped by Ken Willard, the hard-driving fullback for the San Francisco 49’ers, Wake Forest, besides providing the NFL with a starting quarter back, also had Karl Sweetan play ing for them in his junior year. The Deacons also can claim Brian Piccalo who now plays for Chi cago. Bringing things a little closer to home. Bert Wilder (starting lineman for the New York Jets, and all-American at State) played for the Greensboro Whirlies not' too long ago. Top that. Page, Pi rates! po. Robbie Wilson hit on a jump er to give the Whirlies a quici 2-0 lead. Lynchburg tied it with i jump shot from the corner. Aftet trading a couple of baskets, th Whirlies jumped into an 8-7 lead and from then on they were neve headed. Grimsiey shook up the Lynch burg team with a pressing mai for man defense. It kept the Hill toppers outside and forced then to take their shots from farthei out than they normally would: Although Lynchburg had a tallel team, the Whirlies were able t control the defensive boards. Clutch foul shooting down thil stretch proved to be one of thJ decisive factors of the game Steve Warner led the charge witl 8 for 8 from the line. Randy Md Masters, Keith Broome, and Mikd Scott also distributed in the fou shooting at the end of the game.; Grimsiey shot 12-29 from thJ floor for a respectable 41 pe) cent. Mike Scott led Grimsley’i attack with 12 points. He was fol: lowed by Robbie Wilson with 10 Keith Broome with 9, Steve Wart ner with 8, and Randy McMaster.* with 5. Glass took 20 more shots thaii Grimsiey but was only able t( cash in on two of them for 28%; High scorer for the Hilltopperj was Clark Winfield with 19 pointsi However, the next highest maii only scored 4 points.
