2Jljp Daily (Ear Hrrl Men s soccer splits weekend play UNC goes 1-1 in preseason openers FROM STAFF AND WIRE REPORTS > FT. WAYNE, Ind. - The North Carolina men’s soccer team split its opening weekend games with a win against Akron and a loss to Indiana at the National Soccer Festival. Despite a 3-0 shutout by the Hoosiers on Friday, UNC rebound ed with a 2-0 win against No. 12 Akron on Sunday afternoon. Senior forward Brian Shriver scored twice in just over 11 minutes for the win. Shriver put UNC on the board with just 28 seconds remaining in the first half and added a second I can’t believe Dennis Rodman never did this T> emember in high school when that referee with the J- Vpot belly and the glasses thicker than your biology text book swallowed his whistle on a foul in the game’s most important moment? Do J'ou remember what you wanted to do to that stupid zebra? I’m sure the litany of typical reactions crossed your mind. Maybe you’d throw something. Perhaps you’d go through a five minute, profanity-laced tirade in the locker room. HOUSTON FROM PAGE 12 any of the pop that allows him to run over defenders and eat up the tough yardage. “I don’t think that he’s had to give up any power or strength in the course of losing the additional weight,” Davis said. “But I think what we’ve seen is his stamina, that he’s able to play longer and harder.” It isn’t just Houston’s physique that changed with a year of expe rience playing college football. Houston also said his understand ing of the offense and his vision both have improved entering his sophomore campaign. “Last season I could see the holes, but I was still a freshman,” he said. “I was thinking too much, thinking about the scheme, and trying to do it all in the backfield before the play, and it would mess my reads up. “Now I know the system like the back of my hand, so I know the play I know the scheme. “Right before the play, it seems like a short period of time, but as soon as I get back there, boom, I knew the defensive scheme, I know what the linemen are going to do. I can read them a lot bet ter.” With Greg Little as the featured running back in the North Carolina offense, Houston likely will be used this season in terms of the situa tion. He might not be handed the ball on many first-and-lOs, and he might not lead UNC backs in catches out of the backfield. But he should be tops in the running back corps in bloody noses dished out. And when a third-and-short or a goal-line sce nario arises, No. 32 likely will be in the huddle. And he knows it. “I know almost for a fact that third-and-short or if we get to the goal line, I’m going to get in there,” Houston said. “Coach Davis knows I have a nose for the end zone, so I believe that I’m going to help us on short yardage.” Contact the Sports Editor at sports@unc.edu.

Senior goalkeeper Jacob Wescoe went the full 90 minutes in goal to pick up the shutout. He did not allow a goal in 135 minutes of action on the weekend. Despite Wescoe’s first-half blank, No. 7 Indiana netted three second half goals to score a 3-0 win against UNC in the Tar Heels’ exhibition opener Friday. Neil Wilmarth, Brian Ackley and Kevin Noschang each scored for the Hoosiers. JL DANIEL PRICE NATS IN 'O9? Either would have been per fectly acceptable modes of steam blowing. But how about round housing the dude’s bifocals right off of his Porky Pig face? I’m sure the thought was there. But you couldn’t do that. No one could. You don’t lay your hands (or feet) on an official.. It’s just not done. Well now, thanks to Angel Matos, it is. Matos, a taekwondo champion from Cuba, was disqualified for taking too much time in an injury timeout during Saturday’s bronze medal match against Kazakhstan’s Arman Chilmanov. And instead of graciously accept ing the ruling and taking a perfectly SOCCER FROM PAGE 12 her feet within five yards of the goal. The senior midfielder converted both times, and the Tar Heels also had goals from midfielder Yael Averbuch and forwards Katie Klimczak and Courtney Jones, a first-year. After blowing a one-on-one opportunity in the 17th minute when ?he gave the keeper an easy save, Jones scored her first career goal early in the second half off a corner. The ball sailed'past the box on the initial hit, but Nikki Washington quickly lobbed it back and Jones headed it in from the leftside. “I had that breakaway in the first that was horrible,” Jones said. “I could not believe I missed that. And then I had another breakaway after. “(The veterans) said it was OK. They said, ‘You got there, so calm down, and don’t do it again next time.’ I was still frustrated, but they were like, You know, it’s freshman nerves.’” Charlotte’s lone score came off a penalty kick late in the first half. First-year Emmalie Pfankuch com mitted the foul in the box, and UNC goalkeeper Ashlyn Harris picked the wrong side as Charlotte’s Hailey Beam hit the ball low to the left. It took the Tar Heels only one game to pass last season’s mark of goals scored off corners. Despite a plentiful number of opportunities last year (214 corners), UNC only converted one into a goal. Against Charlotte, UNC had three Jones’ goal, which proved to be the game winner, a close-range goal by Long and a header by Klimczak.

Ababio and Shriver each had three shots for the Tar Heels. In goal on the weekend, North Carolina split time between Wescoe and Brooks Haggerty. Haggerty, who missed much of last season with a knee injury, was recovering from a concussion at the start of preseason training. Coach Elmar Bolowich said the starting keeper spot would remain open while he recovered, with Wescoe, Haggerty and first-year keeper J.R Davis competing for the respectable fourth-place finish in Beijing, Matos put his mastery of the Korean martial art to good use. After yelling at and pushing a judge, the 2000 gold medalist kicked referee Chakir Chelbat in the face. Classic. I am not condoning what Matos did. He was banned from World Taekwondo Federation sanctioned events for life —and rightfully so. This kind of action is completely inexcusable and should be met with the harshest of penalties. But be honest with yourself how awesome would it feel to take out that dumb ref who cost you the game? Forget M. J.’s ’B2 jumper, Flutie’s Hail Mary and Namath’s “guarantee.” Matos’ “Referee Round House” has jumped right to the top of the list of sports moments I would pay good money to experience myself. Now, of course I wouldn’t want to deal with the whole being kicked-out-of-the-sport-to-which- I-had-committed-the-better-part omore Ali- Hawkins had an assist with a header on Long’s second goal. Nicknamed “The Hawk” by Dorrance for her ability to fly above the crowd on headers, Hawkins was a crucial part of the national cham pionship season two years ago. But the weekend’s most heralded return was the reunification of the ball with the back of UNC’s oppo nent’s net. The season openers of the last two years were profoundly disappointing 1-0 losses, and the Tar Heels were grateful to avoid any inkling of a flashback. “We were pleased with the way we were creating chance after chance after chance,” Dorrance said. Five of the six first-year strikers, who were specifically recruited to improve UNC’s offensive output, played in Friday’s game. Along with Jones’ goal, newcomer Merritt Mathias tallied four shots. “We were doing a great job of finishing with our head,” sopho more Rachel Givan said. “I don’t know last year why we couldn’t put it away, but this year everyone’s going after it.” Contact the Sports Editor at sports@unc.edu.

SCORING FROM PAGE 12 many opportunities to score, but did manage a goal of her own. Jones was second on the team with five shots against Charlotte. “All you can ask for is chances in a game,” she said, “so as long as I put one away, I think it was good.” While the first-year Jones was eager to catalog all her opportuni ties, cagey veteran Averbuch was more excited by the finishing the Tar Heels displayed on those sec ond half chances. “I think the finishing has improved this year, and our gen eral attacking play is a lot better we have a lot more variety in the attack,” Averbuch said. “We’re just creating chances, and on top of that, our finishing is better. So I think all around, it was a lot better than last year.” Averbuch, a returning All- America, created a chance of her own late in the second half when she nailed a ball into the upper right corner from 25 yards out in the middle of her stride. The senior was tied for third on the team with six goals last year. Adv.

FOOTBALL FROM PAGE 12 mean, you take some chances, field position-wise,” he said. “And that’s a real concern this year. We have no one that’s ever kicked in a game before.” That inexperience could prove a crucial weakness in what fig ures otherwise to be a high-octane offense for UNC. Though the kicking position is undecided, the punter’s spot is locked up. North Carolina coaches think they have found a solid punter in Terrence Brown, Junior Allie Long led the Tar Heels with six shots and two goals, which takes her nearly halfway to her season total of five goals last year. Most promising, for the Tar Heels would be the fact that they converted on two corner kicks in the second half and created scor ing opportunities from others —a significant contrast to last year’s team, which struggled to find its rhythm from the corner. “So only one aspect of our free kicks and set pieces was good last year, and that was our penalty kick ing,” Dorrance said. “Everything else, I thought, was subpat: corner kicks, free kicks, et H - WSkimk |B apjibjl jM- v .. - . * wg&jjg-.

I can tell already corner kicks are going to be good (this year).” Dorrance was also complimen tary of Casey Nogueira’s decision making. The sophomore’s only shot on goal led directly to a score off a corner kick. The second half showed the team’s finishing potential, but if the Tar Heels are going to achieve their goal of regaining promi nence on the national scene, they’ll need to consistently get what they racked up Friday goals.
