Wrestlers’ 0-6 Undermanned but trying by Sharon deck Hampered by a lack of wrestlers in some weight clases, the UNCC Wrestling team stands 0-6 on the season. But ignoring weights where They did not compete and counting only matches wrestled, the record is A-M. In recent matches. UIMCC lost to Maryville College 42-12 overall, but won 12-6 if the weights forfeited ate cancelled. UNCC also lost to Furman 40-15 overall, but won 15-10 in matches wrestled. Until a few weeks ago, there were only four wrestlers on the team. When Charlie Akers was taken off the ineligibility list, the number rose to five.

Francis Boles placed eight in state competition and is 6-0 this year, with all his victories coming on pins. The team is gearing up for competition in the Eastern Regionals of the NCAA in Cincinnati in late February. Coach Alder feels that at least two UNCC wrestlers can qualify for the final tournament. Coach Alder anticipates a full team next year. If UNCC has wrestlers competing in every class, the team record will not reflect the thirty or so points now lost because of forfeiting some weights. Individual results of the Maryville match: 126, Cecil (Carver lost 3-2; 134, Bobby 'Young lost 5-4; 142, Gary Scotty, won by a fall at 5:28; 158, Francis Boles won by a fall at 4:35. All other weights were forfeited. Individual results of the Furman match; 126, Cecil Carver lost 15-1; 134, Bobby Young was pinned at 6:55; 142, Charlie Akers won 12-7; 150, Gary Scotty won by a fall at 3:54; 158, Francis Boles won by a fall at 0:54. Five weights were forfeited. Dae back, Thames hot Coach Bill Foster's 49er squad is playing its best basketball of the season. A lineup change in the road victory over Loyola of New Orleans that saw big Harold Thames open at the pivot, with Terry Sloan and Robert Earl Blue on the front line, and steady guards Jerry Boggs and Rick Dobson has produced three convincing victories. "We are playing good team basketball at this point," said Foster, "and it has reflected in both our offensive and defensive performances." Foster added that he planned to continue to utilize as many as eight or nine men during the course of the game, as the 49er bench has played almost as well as the regulars during the four-game winning streak. Foster has been especially pleased with the play of forward Marshall Thaxton, a junior college transfer from Wingate. Thaxton experienced difficulties in adapting to Foster's brand of basketball, but has provided solid play in the last three contests. Oddly enough, the man replaced in the starting lineup by Thames, senior center Norris Dae, was on the verge of breaking the UNCC career scoring reocrd. Dae, who played two years for UNCC squads in the old Dixie Intercollegiate Athletic Conference prior to Foster's tenure as 49er head coach, needs only 3 points to surpass the 955 markers amassed by Jerry Anthony (1965-69). An injured thumb on his shooting hand had limited Dae's action in the past three contests, but he came back with a solid 8-point performance in a reserve role in the 49ers 87-69 victory over Austin Peay on Feb. 8.

Newsweek COLUMBIA PICTURES Presents A BBS PRODUCTION THE LAST nCIURE SHOW Features 1:30-3:35-5:40-7:50-9:55 february 15, 1972/the journal/page seven SPORTS Sloan scores 25 Peay falls by 18 by j.c. meadows If anyone was perplexed as to why Austin Peay beat UNCC at the start of this season, they are probably in the nut house after Tuesday night's home game against the same team. This time it was an 18-point victory for the 49ers. It was no contest really. The 49ers held a 16 point lead at half-time and after a slow start in the second half, it was downhill all the way. Terry Sloan had a field day for the 49ers, scPring a game high of 25 points and grabbing 6 rebounds. It was good to see Norris Dae back in action again and it was good for UNCC to have him back. Norris aided the 49ers with 8 points and 6 rebounds. Harold Thames was hot all night as he pumped in 14 points and snatched 10 rebounds. The high man for Austin Peay was 6'7" Howard Jackson (23 points) who kept Peay in the game on several occasions with excellent play. If the 49ers continue to play like they have for the past two games, they stand a better-than-even chance of knocking off 11th ranked (nationally) Marshall University here on Feb. 19. 18 students UNCC in tourney by Sharon deck Eighteen UNCC students competed in bowling, billiards, bridge, and table tennis at the Regional Recreational Tournament in Blacksburg, Va., this weekend. UNCC's best chance of a first place is in pool, according to Jon Thomas in the Union office. Steve Murray of UNCC placed third in the competition last year. In past years, UNCC has taken firsts in men's team bowling and in men's individual bowling. Other chances for victory this year are in women's individual bowling and in table tennis singles. A victory in table tennis doubles is doubtful, Thomas said, because the two players have never played together. Team bowling prizes are up for grabs. Winning in bowling depends on every member of the team consistently rolling good games. Our chances are worst in bridge. Bridge competition is always fierce, and some of the best college players in the South participate. Methods of selecting team members vary with each sport. Bridge and billiards players were selected in campus tournaments. Because of the wealth of good pool players on campus, the tournament featured excellent competition this year. The top five players on the eight-man bowling team will comprise the bowling contingent. No tournament was held in table tennis. The committee instead selected players that they knew were good. Because of the failure of the Chess Club to hold a campus tournament, no chess players will compete at Blacksburg. Also, we are sending no women pool players and no women table tennis players. The tournament, sponsored by tha Association of College Unions-International, is the prelude to national competition. Students from colleges in Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Kentucky will compete. In the past, the tournament has always been held here. Now it rotates between UNCC, Virginia Polytechnic Institute, and the University of Tennessee. Any student interested in trying out for next year's teams should contact the Union office in the fall. Potential bowlers face the task of trying to knock one of the current bowlers off the team. schedule... Chi Chi Jan. 25 AKPsi/Eng.
