6 Wednesday, September 15,1993 NAIATeam Plays UNC Tough Again BY ETHAN TREISTMAN STAFF MUTER Despite North Carolina’s help, the Belmont Abbey men’s soccer team was not able to keep its winning streak versus the Tar Heels alive, losing 5-3 Tuesday night at Fetzer Field. Last year the Crusaders gained their first win in 27 tries against North Carolina. That game was an upset, as would a Cru sader win Tuesday night. North Carolina head coach Elmar Bolowich said, “That team could not beat us, if we Mm's SttCW play the way we UNC 5 are supposed to Belmont Abbey ..... 3 play.” UNC, 2-2-1, scored early, then suffered through defensive lapses to hold on for the victory. The collapse prompted Bolowich to say, “We are our own worst enemy." The first half ended with UNC leading 4-1, but it couldn’t put the game away. “We are just an average team. A class team goes ahead and wins this game 6-0,” Bolowich said. Belmont Abbey, an NAIA team, re sponded to UNC’s malaise by tallying two quick goals at the outset of the second stanza to pull within one goal. Bolowich blamed lack of concentration and mental breakdowns on the part of the defense for Belmont Abbey’s comeback. The first of the two goals was particu larly vexing to Bolowich as it came off of a comer kick, the same way the Crusaders scored their first goal. “Even though we addressed their comer kicks at halftime, we still got a goal scored against us in the second half off a comer kick,” he said. “Whatever the guys were thinking in the box, I don’t know, I can’t figure it out. ” Things started slowly for both teams, but UNC was able to pull out to a comfort able 3-0 lead despite the sloppy play. David Moore opened the scoringforthe Tar Heels at 17:06 by following up a Temoc Suarez shot that hit the left post of the goal and knocking the ball into an empty net.

At 34:16, when Moore scored and UNC’s third goal with a header off of a soft lob from Haskins over the leaping Cru sader keeper, it looked like the game might end up an ugly but solid UNC win. But the Crusaders pulled within two at 3-1 with a header off of a coiner kick a minute later —and though it was a poor play defensively, it was no reason to worry about the outcome of the game. Apparently the players were thinking the same way. “Guys were already think ing about running the score up and what not,” Bolowich said. “And we got pun ished for it.” Belmont Abbey came out of the half and dosed the gap to one goal. Gregg Berholter padded the Tar Heels now tenu ous lead to 5-3 by hitting home a penalty shot at the 60:11 mark. The shot resulted from a trip ofKerry Zavagninby a Belmont Abbey defender, ending a breakaway. 40 Copies On Saturdays and Sundays Good until October 24,1993 Good on all 8 1/2 xll plain paper self-service and autofeed copies Open Til Midnite J 7 Days A Week c.o.

The UNC head coach, never a master of the understatement, used the adjective “amazing” 12 times during his half-hour weekly press conference when describing the No. 1 Seminoles. He also used the word awesome four times, dominant twice and talented twice. In addition, he compared the ‘Noles to NFL teams twice and added that FSU is the best team he’s ever coached against. Countdown to FSU Previewing UNCs Saturday matchup with the Seminoles He did stop short, however, of saying they’re the best college football team ever. Sort of. “I can’t say it’s the best team in college football history and we won’t know until the end of the year, bqt I think this team at this stage of the game has to be considered in that group to be as good as any team that’s ever played this game at the college level,” Brown said. So what exactly is it that’s so amazing to Brown about Florida State, the Tar Heels’ next opponent Saturday night at Kenan Stadium? First and foremost, it’s the FSU defense which has allowed just seven points in three games this season. And those seven points came after a punt block put the ball on the 1-yard line. “It’s amazing to me what they’ve done inside the 10,” said Brown, who happens to be an FSU alumnus. “It is amazing. That goal line stand against Kansas it’s awe some." That’s when the ‘Noles had two offsides penalties inside the 1-yard line and the Jayhawks still couldn’t score. “It’s amazing.” To counter the Florida State defense, Brown knows the Tar Heels must have a balanced offensive attack. “You can’t line up and run the ball against Florida State,” Brown said.

PAGEKW America’s Largest Paging Company 942-9115 “They’re not going to let you. They’re too talented. You can’t lineup and throw the ball every play against Florida State. “So you have to have great balance in a game like this. And unless you’re success fully throwing the football, you can’t have that kind of balance.” Running a balanced offense also should chew some time off the clock and keep Florida State’s offense off the field. The Tar Heels have scored 18 touchdowns this year and only one came on a drive longer than four minutes. It’s a concern because once the offense trots off the field, another amazing part of Florida State, Charlie Ward, trots onto the field. “It’s amazing how much improved he is from last year,” Brown said. Ward has completed 70 percent of his passes and gains more than nine yards every time he handles the ball. His receiv ers the likes Tamarick Vanover and Kez McCorvey are off to fast starts. Liter ally. “We cannot allow them to run with us like Maryland,” he said. “They can put you out of the game so quickly with their speed.” Wide receiver Bucky Brooks said, “See ing them on film on defense they’re maybe the fastest team I’ve ever seen." Brown is well aware that Florida State has quite possibly the best defense and the offense in the nation, period. It’s also the second test for the Tar Heels against a “traditional” powerhouse, schools that are always in the Top lOinthenation. The Tar Heels’ long term goal is to be mentioned in the same breath with these schools. “We’re more in a category where they were in the mid-80s, where they were win ning games and improving,” Brown said. “Florida State is a legitimate national con tender for the last six years. Those are pretty awesome stats.” Brown pointed out that the Seminoles are 64-9 over the last six years. Throw out five losses to Miami, it’s 64-4. That in cludes one loss to Florida, making a loss to a non-state rival rare. And that record, of course, is ... well, you know. “When you start looking at that record, folks, that is amazing,” Brown said.

Moore, a junior from Riverton, N.J., scored the game-winning goal with 10:45 left in overtime to lift the Tar Heels to a 3- 2 victory Sunday against Temple. Moore also had an assist against the Owls, and added a goal and a assist in UNC’s 2-0 win versus Villanova Saturday. North Carolina isnow4-oontheseason and claimed the top spot in the NCAA Division I Coaches’ Poll Tuesday. Volleyball Tops Davidson DAVIDSON The UNC volleyball squad defeated Davidson 15-9,14-16,15- 9,15-7 Tuesday. After taking the second game, the Wild cats bolted to a 4-0 in the third game before the Tar Heels rallied. UNC ran off the first eight points of the final game to squelch any hopes of a Davidson comeback. Colette Dingens led the Tar Heels with 19 kills, including eight in the third game. Michelle Miller notched 30 assists. Caldwell Not Panicking Despite 0-2 Record WINSTON-SALEM Wake Forest football coach Jim Caldwell says that de spite his team’s 0-2 record, the Deacons aren’t in a make-or-break situation this week against Division I-AA rival Appala chian State. “We’ve had several inquiries into the morale of this team, and it’s obvious it’s something we shouldbe concerned about,” Caldwell said Tuesday at his weekly news conference. “The first two games, we came out and wanted to play, we were enthusias tic, and I still think we are because of the nature of this rivalry.” The Deacons lost their home opener to Vanderbilt, then dropped their ACC opener Saturday to N.C. State 34-16. After Saturday’s home game, Wake will play at home just once in the next seven weeks. “It’s not make or break,” Caldwell said. “We have a number of games to play left. Every game you play is important, and right now the most important game is the Appalachian State game.” Quarterback Rusty Laßue is doubtful after spraining his ankle againstN.C. State. Backup quarterback Jim Kemp was 17 of 34 for 215 yards and two touchdowns against the Wolfpack. Suns 1 Dumas Checks Into Drug-Rehabilitation Clinic PHOENIX Richard Dumas, the Phoenix Suns forward sought by Detroit in a possible trade for Dennis Rodman, has checked into a drug-rehabilitation clinic in Houston. Dumas, who has a history of substance abuse, is in the John Lucas clinic and may move to the NBA’s Adult Substance Abuse Program center in Van Nuys, Calif. “Because the NBA’s drug program is a confidential program which is overseen by the NBA and National Basketball Players Association, we are given limited informa tion on the team level,” team president Jerry Colangelo said Tuesday. The news apparently ended the Suns’ hopes of trading Dumas and other players to the Pistons for Rodman. “I think it would be safe to say anything happening with Dumas would be remote, ” Pistons player-personnel director Billy McKinney said after being told of the latest development. KRYDER FROM PAGE 3 Werner, also was running for a school board seat. “You’d like to think that if I were in their position, I wouldn’t want to exclude another candidate, just so that particular issue wasn’t raised," he said. School board member Ken Touw said he thought it was reasonable for Kryder to seek time to speak at the forum but added that he understood the league’s hesitation to include Kryder. “The voter needs to consider why this person wasn’t able to get their act together and register. It costs next to nothing,” Touw said. Six candidates are running for three open seats. The municipal election will be held Nov. 2. POSTAL FROM PAGE 1 officer and senior vice president of the U. S. Postal Service, said the Playmakers The atre postcard would call national and glo bal attention to the University. "Stamps and postal cards have marked milestones that shape the country,” he said. “(They) preserve moments in time.” The celebration marks anew beginning for the University, he said. “This will be the third century of service to the state, the nation and the world.” Henderson lifted the black covering and revealed the enlarged replica of the first postcard issued in Chapel Hill. Tar Heel Voices sang UNC-CH’s alma mater, "Hark the Sound,” and audience members joined in as the ceremony con cluded. The postcards were sold afterward with the opportunity for autographs from the speakers, including Timberlake. Fifteen million Playmakers Theatre postcards will be available nationwide to day.
