Ill mill spiayer of the Year From Page B3 lllllltlllllllllllllllllllllll, IINIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII Monte Jackson rAAU girls rom Page B2 schools. |The 5-8 guard averaged ill jjoints a game in the playoffs ind has Hawks excited about her coring’^tential. ^She has the green light for aie three-pointer,” said Hawks. "I told all of my guards that if jy were in range and open - pn don’t hesitate to shoot it out lere. With a 0-second shot ^k, you have take the pod open ^ot.” i Hawks also 5s his owr j Ivian Cagle, ^nthia Culler f Woodland, lephanie Disher of Reynolds, Jfcnee Mabe of Gospel Light and ^ie Carmin of North Forsyth. Cagle, a senior, led the Yel- I'iwjackets with 13 points and i^arly five assists. Hawks said / le all-Metro and all-city/county fck will be depended upon for fr leadership and some outside footing. ;• Culler was not as big of a brer as Tucker for Woodland, ^t Hawks says the junior can |ht it up from the outside and |ss as well. i Disher was another reserve jr the Demons, but her shooting id quickness should afford her feying time for the AAU group. Gospel Light did not play lany heavyweights, but Hawks iys Mabe has held her own and 'ill help the cause from the out- ifie. ’> Carmin, a North Forsyth inior, played little on a team . |aded from everything to a talent- freshmen guard to a dominat- te senior center. But Hawks says ie AAU team might be right up ir alley. j "This is a good experience for Iris like Julie," he said. 'With so much talent at North, le could very easily go unno- ed. I think she'll play some for and gain some confidence. "In fact, I believe all 12 of our rls will make a contribution for lat we're trying to do. That's lat AAU is all about - giving em extra exposure and improv- I their game.” 'H The Bobcats fell to Reidsville in the first round of the state play offs, but their performance was still I impressive for such a young team. M Months over the spring were Y spent with Coach Ron Hollingsworth and the Winston Lake AAU team. ThenFeggins '--sfollowed up with Hansel Hentz's V|| Winston-Salem Summer Basketball League and several conditioning 50 classes at the 14th Street Recreation Center. (JO But the real credit for Thomp son and Feggins’ success, was the g|j fact that they played together and “ worked on their game all the lime, gj Hentz, who has saw the coun ty’s best come and go during the 50 past 11 years, says Feggins and Thompson improved at a rapid rate. 35 "They really came in and worked hard,” said Hentz, who has 95 )ut the two through vigorous condi- ioning exercises and basketball 95 Irills during the past two summers. "They ran suicides and the 155 )leachers and they hated doing it wmetimes. But they went from ISO umping rope 350 times a day to 1000. They really worked their ;5(1 ails off " they came to train hard. "That's one thing I can say 135 tbout those two guys - they work lard. They want to get better. They ;O0 want to be the best.” The motto enscribed on the 50 jack of Glenn's uniforms is "Atli- udeand Sacrifice". 95 Both Feggins and Thompson lad paid the price with hard work. 50 riardly a day goes by without the _.wo spending considerable time on he b^ketball court. It was evident when Glenn oiled into a packed Mount Tabor Jjym and promptly embarrassed the Spartans, 80-55. Feggins was slowed with a nagging ankle injury that night, but toughed it out to help his team on the boards. "That showed everyone that we had the guards and people com ing off the bench to be a complete team, We had all the ingredients to convincingly beat a good team like Mount Tabor. "It (the ankle) hurt after the game but I just wanted to be out there for the team. 'We already knew we had a great team because we won the team camp at High Point College over the summer. I knew we could be one of the top teams in the area if we worked hard enough.” The Bobcats met Mount Tabor again in the semi-finals of the Frank Spencer Classic and proved their point a second lime. Glenn eventually nosed out top-seeded Eden Morehead and won their first FSC title by going to a double-high post offense to slow things down in the final minute. The Bobcats added two more pieces of hardware to the collection when they finished 9-1 to win the Metro Conference regular-season title and capture the touniament as well. Figuring who was the Bobcats' lop performer this season is proba bly a mute point. Feggins and Thompson are more of a successful tandem than anything else. Prying the two apart for sepa rate examination would not tell the whole story. The two are like gravy - a pinch of flour, a little bit of water and a whole lot of stirring. Thursday, March 31, 1988 Winso^.Sakm Qironick Page B5 Open Government . County Commissioner DEMOCRAT For The People Feggins and the Bobcats should return in full force next season. Glenn will lose key performers in Julius Minor and Chan LaRue, but nearly everyone else returns (photo by Randy Pettitt). Another One? Even without Feggins and Thompson, Glenn had an excellent team this past season. But with them, the Bobcats were almost unstoppable. Still, the two know they can improve and are working to make it happen. Meanwhile in the living room of Feggins' home sits another school picture. In the gold-trimmed frame is the smile of his only broth- CT, 13-year-old Kevin Wilson. "He has more potential than I had,” Feggins proudly proclaims. "He'd give me those sad little faces that little brothers do and I'd always carry him along. Kevin's going to be tough." Surely area coaches will take Feggins' word on the matter. They probably aren't very anx ious to find out. Cloud knew little about the two when they arrived at Glenn. But after seeing both in physi cal education classes, it was obvi ous they would be keys in helping the fledgling Glenn basketball pro gram get off the ground. "Obviously, I saw a lot of potential right away," said Cloud. "That's why I kept them on the varsity as freshmen. You don't see that loo often. People criticized me for it, but I thought it was the best way for us to start our program. "I told those kids that if they worked hard and stuck with us, then they would gel to play.” Cloud kept his promise and the rest is history. Glenn is no longer an up and coming team - they have arrived. B E N N 1 E ' ASSISTANT MANAGER, NEW CAR B DEPARTMENT R 722-4191 f .
