"he Daily Tar Heel Starting Carolina quarterback Fri.ii,-. Oc!cv ?f 5 V clhai by Kevin Barris Sports Writer It's the first big play of the second quarter in last Saturday's game against Missouri. Tar Heel quarterback Chris Kupec goes around right end on the option for nine yards before being crushed by three Tiger defenders. Kupec comes out of the play with a broken collarbone, and thus begins the varsity quarterbacking career of Billy Paschall. Last year. Bill was starting quarterback for the freshman team, where he completed 30 of 69 passes for 471 yards and three touchdowns. He also played varsity baseball, compiling a 1-1 record as a pitcher, and in summer league baseball he struck out 62 batters in the 69 innings he pitched, on his way to a 4-4 season. Coming from Virginia Beach. Virginia. Billy (who is now majoring in business administration) decided to attend Carolina because, he says. "Carolina had the best football and baseball programs, and an outstanding academic reputation." He added he's also impressed by the friendliness of the people and he likes the Chapel Hill area. - Discussing last week's game Paschall said. I knew I was the backup quarterback before the game began.' but when Chris was hurt and Coach Dooley called for me. I really didn't think much at all. I was a little nervous and I just kind of floated out onto the field." He added that at the beginning of the season the idea of his being starting quarterback (as he will this Saturday at State) had never crossed his mind. Sitting in his room in Ehringhaus (which is so windy that he and his roommate Brian Smith have nicknamed it "Chicago") Bill had time to relax and not worrv about the ohnson GREENSBORO. N.C.

"They were all good." he said about the Tigers, "they were quick and hit hard and they knew their stuff." The Tar Heels were relatively successful w ith the option play after Paschall came into the game and he pointed out that Carolina had only run the play once before he came in the play in which Kupec was injured. "1 had practiced with the team during the leads A CC rushing average and Carter stands at 72.3. Burden is ahead in gains per play with eight'yards on the average followed by Johnson's five. Sophomore quarterback Scott Gardner of Virginia, who accounted for 259 yards as the Cavaliers defeated Duke last week, is still the league's total offense and passing leader. He is the only player averaging better than 200 yards per game (210.3) and is averaging 6.1 yards per play. In passing, Gardner has completed 48 of 104 aerials for 677 yards. Duke's Mark Johnson is runnerup with 324 yards on 22 completions. and will be divided into men's and women's competition.

IN HIM!- 11 spring and 1 had great confidence in them. With Coach Dooley calling all the plays my job was just to get the ball to the backs." The first touchdown of his varsity career came on a broken play. "It was supposed to have been a handoff to Billy Hite. but 1 got a little nervous and pulled away from the center too soon, which made me bobble the snap. There was no one in the backficld but me when I got control of the ball, so I just dove forward." Paschall says he needs to work on his ball carrying technique in view of his two fumbles last week. "I've learned a lot of football since I've been here, mainly learning how to read the defense. I used to never know what kind of defense the other team was playing." In looking to the future Billy is optimistic but he says"Welltakc'em one at a time." He has a lot of confidence in the Tar Heels' offense and is not really concerned about what happened in the last two games. "We can move the ball, we just haven't gotten ourselves together. Against Missouri we played well except for the mistakes. We're starting to get together, though. We have a damn good backficld and a great offensive line." This Saturday is the State game and Paschall is sure Carolina can win. "Like Coach Dooley said, if we execute, we can beat them. State has good team effort, an aggressive defense, they're good-sicd and they hustle; but I know we can win." He added. "Naturally, it's a bigger game than usual. .c'll go out on the field and it'll take care of itself." This game may very well determine the ACC championship, but sophomore Billy Paschall feels he can handle the pressure. We'll be rooting for jou. Bill. Ken Pengitorc of Clemson is second in total offense and Mark Johnson is third.
