49er
Linkers get underway
The University of North
Carolina at Charlotte golf team
will participate in ten dual and
triangular meets during the 1971
season, according to the schedule
released by UNCC atldetic
director Dr. Harvey F. Murphy.
The 49ers face a tough task,
playing eight of their matches on
the road, while having the home

RECRUITING IS NEXT
With the 49er basketball season complete Coach Bill Fosters efforts
have turned to recruiting. After compiling a remarkable 15-8 record this
^ason Foster will be looking for a big man to aid the rebounding of the
somewhat small 49er roundballers.
course advantage only twice. The
two home matches are scheduled
late in the season and will be held
on the new Forest Pawtuckett
Golf Course.
“We don’t have much depth,”
said 49er golf coach Floyd Kerr,
“and will be counting on four
boys to carry the load for us.”
A bright spot for UNCC is the
addition of Terry Mauney to the
squad. Mauney finished second in
the 1970 Charlotte City Amateur
and placed seventh in the North
Carolina Amateur tourney last
year.
Other golfers expected to help
carry the load for the 49ers are
returning veteran Danny Randall,
freshman Chuck Little and
sophomore Steve Kiser.

Foster who says he was pleased but certainly not satisfied with
season is looking at a number of good high school prospects. One ^
those prospects who is almost certain to become a 49er next season is a Oil H I O*
Union-Furnace Ohio boy named Dave Poling. UlC*
At 6-5 Poling would be a welcomed addition to the 49er yearlings
both on and off the court. Poling who is a scholar as well as a top notch
basketball player, would fit well into the 49er picture. And Poling isn’t
®11 that Foster has his eye on either, don’t forget Charlotte Mecklenburg
has produced some fine players this season and Foster isn’t the type to
°ver look his own backyard.
When next season does come around again the 49ers will face a
much tougher schedule with the likes of Oklahoma, Mississippi, State
3nd Tulane on tap there won’t be much room for error.
DAVIDSON CHOKES AGAIN
After watching the Southern Conference Tournament last week end
here are two observations. First many Charlottean’s forgot that
Uavidson college is the world’s greatest choking basketball team. After
3^-1 Southern conference mark and seated first in the tournament the
Wildcats managed to remind the Charlotte fans that they still were the
S'eatest chokers as they took the gas last Friday from the next power in

Seated fifth in the tournament the Paladins under the direction of
Williams left no doubt who would be wearing the crown as they

THE GREAT SILENCER

*he Army last Monday night.
Frazier who said he would win or else did just that as he hung a
^Presidented silence on the Louisville Lip in the world greatest two
performance that Hollywood has ever produced. Look out for
® rematch.
TENNIS IS COMING
j foe Kingery will coach the revampped 49er tennis effort as the
UNcc Netters ease back into the event with ten or so matches. Don’t
*m)k for much success but if I know Kingery they will win a few.
