Field hockey
gains new fan
I talked big three weeks ago
and promised to show up at
the field hockey home opener
Sept. 18.
Well, I actually did, so here’s
a running diary of my inaugural
field hockey experience:
12:36 p.m.: Arriving at Henry
Stadium during warmups, I soak
in my new surroundings.
The field is surrounded on two
sides by an ivy-covered fence.
Trees tower above the open field,
making it seem like a forest
glade with skirted pixies running
around swinging candy canes.
12:50: Avril Lavigne’s “My
Happy Ending” comes on the PA
system. Somebody needs to donate
these guys a Jock Jams CD.
1:00: Game time. It’s North
Carolina’s ball to start. They
back pass. It’s like soccer so far. I
momentarily believe I can follow.
1:01: A whistle blows, and the
players stop what they were doing
and run downfield. They leave the
ball where it was and one player
knocks it forward.
This prompts the following
exchange with my friend Phil, who’s
covering the game for a class:
Phil: What happened?
Me: Uhmm... foul?
Phil: (Laughs) I shouldn’t be
covering this.
1:03: The team parents are
hardcore. All-American Kelsey
Keeran’s mother, Debbie, is a
squinty-eyed woman of medium
height and build with corn-husk
blond hair.
She’s also ayeller, alternately
expressing cheer, sympathy,
anguish and encouragement, or
all of these at once.
1:07: During a failed UNC
rush, I ready myself to dial 911 in
case Mrs. Keeran pops an embo
lism in her brain.
1:08: There’s a penalty shot.
Why?
Uhmm... foul?
Actually, it’s a corner, which is
my new favorite play in sports.
One player sends a pass from
the comer to her entire team,
which is lined up versus the goalie
and four defenders who the coach
has deemed human sacrifices.
Old Dominion manages to
make the save;
1:29: Keeran draws a comer,
but North Carolina, ranked third
in the country, misses the ball on
UNC downs Blue Devils in 4 games
Sagula reaches 500-win milestone
BY MARY DUBY
ASSISTANT SPORTS EDITOR
DURHAM - The North
Carolina volleyball team heated
up Cameron Indoor Stadium on
Monday.
The team was so hot, in fact,
that a fire alarm delayed the start
of game four for 10 minutes in
UNC’s 3-1 vic
tory against
Duke.
After falling
in game one, the

Tar Heels earned Coach Joe Sagula
his 500th career win by storming
back for a 26-30,30-23,30-25,30-
20 victory.
“When you get to something like
this, it’s just a testament to all the
people who’ve played at UNC apd
in my career, and I thank them,”
Sagula said. “I’m going along for
the ride.”
The match opened the 2004-05
Carlyle Cup, giving UNC (6-6,1-0
in the ACC) the first point in the
competition between the two uni
versities.
“It’s huge,” said co-captain Katie
Wright of scoring the first point. “I

the centering pass for the second
time. I’m smelling a repeating
theme.
1:31: There’s a give-and-go
and-give-again between Keeran
and Brooke Miller, but the short
shot is kicked away by the goalie.
1:38: At halftime, while brows
ing through the media guide, I
find out exactly how hardcore
these parents are: Most of the
players are out-of-state students.
I ask the couple in front of
me Cindy and Ken Falgowski,
parents of UNC forward Kerry
Falgowski where they came
down from, and they say
Pennsylvania.
Cindy explains matter-of-factly,
“It’s our daughter’s last season, so
we can’t miss a home game.”
That, my friends, is dedication.
1:52: Four minutes into the
second half, UNC gets a comer.
The Tar Heels set up, and the
intended recipient of the pass
whifls as the ball passes through
her legs. But Naomi Weatherald,
expectantly in position, rockets a
slapshot into the goal for a 1-0 lead.
I later find out this is a set play
for short corners called a “slip.”
UNC runs it unsuccessfully three
more times in the second half.
1:57: The Monarchs use a
beautiful give-and-go to create an
empty net, but UNC goalie Katy
Tran recovers to make a spectacu
lar diving save at the comer of
the net.
ODU just missed its big chance.
2:26: The clock runs out, and the
Tar Heels persevere 1-0. The second
half went by pretty quickly, with
more up-and-down action than the
first. For a match between the No. 3
and No. 7 teams, the outcome never
really seemed in doubt.
After my first field hockey
game, I’m interested enough to
want to come ou,t again. w ,„

hate Duke.”
While Dani Nyenhuis and Molly
Pyles led the team with 20 kills and
24 digs, respectively, defensive spe
cialist Caroline deßoeck made her
presence known subtly on every
comer of the court.
Deßoeck finished the game with
18 digs, but her contribution sur
passed the statistics.
“She played a fantastic match
that no one’s probably going to
look at; she didn’t get the big
kills,” Sagula said. “But I think
she was one of the top perform
ers for us.”
The Tar Heels looked sloppy
in game one as they adjusted to
tactics specifically geared toward
Duke (9-3, 0-1), which entered
the match on a nine-game win
ning streak.
“I just think people were not
quite clear and not being precise
with what we were doing,” Wright
said. “People just weren’t focus
ing.”
Sagula hounded his team after
game one for the lack of defense,
and the Tar Heels responded with
intensity.

Lewis takes on greater role at RB
McGill unlikely
to play Saturday
BY DANIEL BLANK
ASSISTANT SPORTS EDITOR
Jacque Lewis proved against
Georgia Tech that he can be a fea
ture back, receiving the brant of
North Carolina’s carries.
When the Tar Heels play
Louisville at Kenan Stadium on
Saturday, he might have to do it
again.
Ronnie McGill has not prac
ticed this week and is doubtful
for Saturday after he sprained his
ankle against Ga. Tech, according
to UNC coach John Bunting.
“I’m ready to do whatever I
need to do to help my team win,”
said Lewis, who ran for a career
high 161 yards against the Yellow
Jackets. “And if that’s playing the
whole game, then I’ll be prepared
to do that Saturday.”
But even before McGill’s injury,
Lewis was starting to earn more
carries than the coaching staff had
envisioned.
“We’re playing Jacque even more
than I thought we would at this
point, and that’s a tribute to him,”
Bunting said.
Although Lewis will be the pri
mary back, the senior won’t be the
only one.
Bunting said Chad Scott will see
more playing time because of his
performance in relief of McGill in the
second half against Georgia Tech.
Although he was nursing a
shoulder injury, Scott ran for 59
yards on 11 carries.
Scott will fill McGill’s role as a
bruising back who picks up the
tough yards to set up Lewis’ speed
on the perimeter.
“Chad Scott provided that for us
in the second half. He did a terrific
job going in there,” Bunting said.
UNC squanders 2-goal lead, falls to Monarchs
FROM STAFF AND WIRE REPORTS
NORFOLK, Va. - The 24th
ranked Old Dominion men’s soccer
team scored two goals in the final
five minutes within two minutes
of each other to defeat North
Carolina 3-2 Tuesday night at the
ODU Soccer Stadium.
The loss extended UNC’s winless
streak to four games, dating back
to a loss to Florida International
on Sept. 10.
Edson Elcock had the game
winning goal off a Kevon Harris
“(Sagula said) ‘We’re not going
to lose to Duke; it’s not going to
happen,’” said sophomore Emily
Guerry. “That was enough.”
By game four, UNC looked like
a completely different team. They
easily routed the Blue Devils, lead
ing by as many as 13 points and tal
lying 12 consecutive kills.
“We had a confidence that was
unwavered, and so that showed
up in the second, third and fourth
game,” Pyles said.
After falling behind 10-5 in
game two, North Carolina took
its first lead of the match at 14-13,
and while the teams continued to
trade points, UNC held on to even
the match at 1.
It looked as if UNC would pull

UNC running back lacque Lewis (20) ran for 161 yards on 16 carries in last week's victory against Georgia Tech.
Due to Ronnie McGill's sprained ankle, Lewis likely will have more playing time against Louisville on Saturday.
“He had a braised shoulder going
in, and he sucked it up. I was very
impressed with him. He was the
one who gave us the lift we needed
in that football game.”
Cardinals have many targets
Bunting said the defense’s per
formance against Georgia Tech
was its best since his first year in
2001.
But he added that the unit still
needs to make a lot of progress
to contain the potent Cardinal
attack.
“We improved, but not even close
to where we need to be to be a com
petitive defense,” Bunting said.
Louisville has averaged 40 points
per game in starting the season 2-0
and features three strong running
assist with just more than 30 sec
onds left in the game.

utes, 41 seconds into the game off

The goal was Ashe’s third of the
away in game three after taking a 16-
11 lead, but the Blue Devils, who were
led by last week’s ACC Player of the
Week, Carrie DeMange, fought their
way back to tie the game at 22.
The win boosted UNC’s con
fidence heading into road games
against ACC powers Georgia Tech
and Clemson this weekend.
“They’re going to be waiting
for us down there,” Pyles said.
“So we’re going to be going in full
steam ahead.”

Bush and Eric Shelton.
But the Cardinals also like to
spread out their offense with three
of four wide receivers at a time.
“Last week, (Georgia Tech) had
their number one receiver; they
knew who they wanted to throw
the ball to,” said Jacoby Watkins,
who was named ACC defen
sive back of the week for his two
interceptions against the Yellow
Jackets. “This week, they’ve got a
lot of targets out there; there’s a lot
of talent out there.”
But even with several tough
ACC opponents looming, Watkins
said the team prefers to play a
quality non-conference opponent
like Louisville.
“I’d rather play top talent before
I play Florida State than just any
year.

But the margin of victory was
