Rick Rembielak to lead Wake Forest baseball program CHRONICLE STAFF REPORT Wake Forest University Direc tor of Athletics Ron Wellman announced Tuesday that Rick Rembielak, the all-time win ningest coach of any sport in Kent State University history, has been named head baseball coach. "Rick has all the characteris tics that were important for us in the search for our new head base ball coach." Wellman said. "He has been a head coach for many years and been tremendously suc cessful in that position. He is as high-quality as they come in the development of collegiate play ers." "He is not only recognized as an excellent recruiter, but under stands the importance of top-cal iber student-athletes, both on the field and in the classroom," Well man said. "He has an outstanding record in terms of graduating his student-athletes, as well as win ning numerous conference cham pionships." Rembielak added: "What Hill from page B I 32, isn't as gracious and athletic as he was when he was this young rim-breaker from Orlan do. None of this is a surprise to me. I immediately noticed the weirdness of Shaq, and his need for attention after he made a few statements during the final news conference of the NBA Finals. "It's going to be a funny summer," O'Neal said. "Every one's going to take care, of their own business and do what's best for them." Do you all remember that statement? Shaq said he sensed things would turn "funny" when he turned down Buss' request to take a pay cut months ago. "They said it's about the money. It's not about the money." O'Neal told the Associated Press. "It's about honesty, and the honesty me and Jerry West had. That's been gone for four years now. They say I'm getting older. Of course. I am. But can't nobody mess with me. I'm like toilet paper. Pampers and tooth paste. I'm definitely proven to be effective." Leave it up to Shaq to put matters in perspective and help us understand him better. Kudos for Women of Des tiny Camp I spoke with a friend of mine last Friday at the State Games Gold Medal Reception at the Coliseum. She had a daughter who participated in the Women of Destiny girls basketball camp last week at Carl Russell Recre ation Center. The first thing she told me was that her daughter learned more in that weeklong camp than she has the entire time she's known how to play basketball. "It's just amazing how much that camp helped Erica (Hutchins)," Sylvia Hutchins said. "She's been to numerous camps, like the Wake Forest camps and all, but she's learned more at Carl Russell than she has at any of the camps she's been to before. She came home so happy after each day." That's just a testament to the hard work that Aaron Bailey and Angela Lambson put in to pres ent a great camp for the young ladies of this community to enjoy. "We basically just set out to give young ladies an avenue to learn the game," Bailey said. "You always see camps where girls don't get the attention and guidance they need. I thought that there should be a camp for them, especially in this area. Women's basketball is just as exciting as men's basketball in some instances, and it can only get better." I agree. Aaron. That really was a great camp and a wonder ful idea. Keep up the good work, and continue making a differ ence with the kids. Carver and Reynolds take gold Winston-Salem has the best two high school basketball teams in the state. Well, we can at least say that after the Demons and Yellowjackets captured gold medals at the 2(X)4 Slate Games. Reynolds dumped Dudley 78-59 while Carver skated past Red Springs 43-37 to win the gold medal in the girls basketball final of the State Games of North Car olina. The Demons received great play from Mike Copeland. a 6-7, 235-pound senior. Young Justin Henderson also did his thing, as he's been doing ever, since lie was a ninth-grader. Copeland finished the game with 25 points for Reynolds. Former Carver star Brandon Massey also did his thing_for the Demons as he fin ished with 1 5 points. Another former Yellowjacket, Kelvin Hayes, scored 12 points. Katrice Teal. Brittany Stra chan and Casey Jones led Carv er. I have a feeling there will be a lot to talk about the Yellowjack ets when the season begins. The Carver girls should be a real treat to watch next season. I just hope that Lashanda Pratt will be OK. She went down hard with an ankle injury in the second half. She's a real weapon the Yellow jackets will need to make a title push next season. No matter what happens next season, the building blocks have "been planted for greatness, for both Reynolds and Carver. Let's see how far they will take them.

It is the perfect combination of academics and athletics. I can not think of a better place to fur ther my career than at Wake For est. It is an ideal position. My excitement and enthusiasm to start the recruiting process and spread Wake Forest's name is immedi ate."
