Elston is peaking

They call him "Mr. Clutch." With
methodical precision, he rips open
opponents' man-to-man defenses with
confident drives to the basket, or bewilders
the zone with a deadly outside shot.
But it has not been an easy climb for
Carolina's senior guard Darrell Elston, who
has been called upon to guard N.C. State's
All-American David Thompson, -1 c
" The' important 6-4 "big" guard for the
fifth-ranked Tar Heels has not always been
an effective offensive player. Hampered by
injuries and sickness his first two years,
Darrell was the 1 3th man on the squad as a
sophomore, shooting a mere 20 per cent in 1 3
games. People were beginning to wonder
about "that boy" that Coach John Lotz had
signed without having seen him play.
Darrell had been a heavily recruited All
State football player from Tipton, Indiana
who also just happened to play basketball.
But in his own mind, the roundball was his
favorite. His high school coach, a close
friend of John Lotz, knew this and
convinced Lotz to sign him at Carolina.
Things started looking disasterous for
Darrell at the start. The sickness and the
injuries began to take a toil on his

talent, he moved up from that last spot on
the bench. Darrell got his chance his junior
year at the expense of Ray Harrison who fell
ill for two-thirds of the season.
Darrell Elston was forced to have his
confidence return.
And return it did. He came through with a
5 1 per cent shooting average from the floor,
77 per cent from the line and recorded 100
assists and 93 rebounds for last year's 25-8
NIT team.
That " confidence has stayed with him;
through -this year. - - ' - .i
Darrell has shown that in these first 13
games as he is second on the squad in scoring
with a 14.8 average, hitting a hot 55 per cent
from the floor, 87 per cent from the line and
he leads the team with 70 assists nearly 30
more than his nearest teammate.
How will he play Thompson? "Lots has
been said about David. He is undoubtedly
one of the best; he does everything
well ..."
"You've got to use a little more strength on
him. If he does have a weakness that could be
it. Someone who overplays him real close
when he gets the ball will be most effective.
He's not as offensive as he is when left out in
the open where he will make the 30-foot shot
or he will drive around you."
"If we are to go ahead and have a
championship season, it would mean a lot to
beat them right now, during the season.

Carolina down by nine in the finals of the
Big Four tournament, the Tar Heels
desperately need to score a basket. Mitch
Kupchak replaces Ed Stahl. Vie 6-9, 230
pound freshmen has come in several times
this year to give the offense a lift.
The ball goes to Elston at the key. down to
Kupchak on the baseline. Mitch fakes left,
drives right, muscles his way past Burleson
for two and draws the foul. The free throw is
good.
State leads by six. the ball into Burleson,
he turns, shoots, blocked by Kupchak. He
recovers the loose ball, the Tar Heels break
quickly downcourt, pass underneath to
Kupchak,' he scores basket counts as he
draws the foul. Free throw is up and good.
Mitch Kupchak has made two three-paint
plays within 20 seconds to chop State's lead
from nine to three.
"I was really excited last year," recalls
Kupchak, "I had read articles about how
great Thompson was and I had never seen
anyone as tall as Burleson.
"I was not afraid of getting my shot
blocked because I did not know better. After
that, however, Burleson blocked my shot a
few times when I did not fake. Now I know
what he can do."
Kupchak will get another chance to test
his knowledge tonight, provided he guards
Burleson. '
In the Big Four tournament Burleson out
rebounded Kupchak 14 to S as State
dominated the boards 40-22.
Rebounding has been a problem all year
long. Despite having a 6-9, 6-9, 6-10
frontline, Carolina has out-rebounded only
Wake Forest and Clemson this season.

With seven seconds left in the last
Carolina-State conflict. Ed Stahl found
himself with the ball. His subsequent shot
fell off the rim and the Tar Heels were losers.

-When I got the bait Stahl. the 6-10 junior
forward, said, "I can't say t was thinking,
'well, if I make this shot 111 be the hero and if
I miss I'll be the goat, so I definitely don't
feel that I lost the game.

continued. I just got the ball and 1 was open.

took a dribble and looked around. There still
wasn't anyone open so I took the shot.
"It would have been better if 1 had known
beforehand that I was going to have to take

remaining, the Tar Heels had the ball and a
77-76 lead. State stole the ball before
Carolina could get its patented four-corner
offense in gear.
"When we threw it in bounds." Stahl said.

practice."
Burleson likes to roam the middle and
take his right-handed hook or fall away
jumper.
However, Maryland's Len Elmore took
away Burleson's inside game by overplaying
the State star to his right, forcing him to go
to his left for a baseline jumper. The result
3-19 from the floor!
"I'm not the athlete Elmore is though. I
can not jump high enough to block
Burleson's shot. 1 will try to harass him.
switching from front to back to keep him
guessing so he does not know what I am
going to do."
"Burleson is the key to State's set offense.
They get the ball to him and he either shoots
it, passes to a cutting man or goes back door
to Thompson. We can not stop either
Burleson or Thompson but we have to hold
them down to win."
For Mitch Kupchak that is a tall order.
Season does
on one game-
by Carolin Bakewell
Sports Writer
Sunday night John O'Donnell sat in his
room watching the late news and trying to
keep the mustard from leaking out of his
sandwich.
O'Donnell is a senior, a veteran of NIT,
ACC and Big Four championship teams; he
has played State six times in the past two
years beating them twice. Tonight will be
the last time that O'Donnell plays State in
Carmichael Auditorium. The thought didn't
seem to make him nervous, though, as he sat
contemplating his game between calm bites
of his sandwich.
"It does mean something to beat State,
because we're in a race, we'd sure like to get
the bye, but we've still got a long time to go
yet and it doesn't all hinge on this one game."
Mostly, it's a matter of confidence and
concentration, he explained. "State's ranked

O'DonnclPs fault at all. We just didn't get
open for a pass."
Carolina hasn't beaten the Wolf pack in
two seasons and Stahl is definitely Itntking
forward to tonight's game.
"I'm not looking forward to it mi much for
revenge." Stahl said. "It's just the thought of
the competitie feeling there is whenever you
play State. It's just knowing that you're
going to have a good game with them no
matter what they're ranked. I hey always
play well against us. just like Duke.
"But I guess everyone plays well against
Carolina." he added.
Stahl doesn't have to worry about the
competitiveness being there tonight. State,
like Carolina, has lost only one game and is
currently ranked third in the nation.
"I would say this year's State team is oxen
better than last year's" Stahl said. Last year
they went to Thompson too much and just
counted on him too much. I his year they're
going to Burleson more and exploiting their
talents. They were certainly a good team last
year, but this year they seem to be a little
more together."
State may not be going to David
Thompson as much, but he's just as
destructive as ever to Woll'pack opposition.
"We probably won't be able to keep
"Thompson from scoring 20 or 25 points."
Stahl said. "I think it's not so much how
many points someone scores, but what kind
of shooting night he has percentage-wise. If
we can make Thompson go 10 for 30. then
we've done a good job.
"I don't think it's going to be any one
person we have to stop." he said. "We just
have to play good overall defense and wee
got to rebound with them."
Stahl emphasised the need for the Tar
Heels to rebound, and with good reason.
Carolina has only out-rebounded two ACC
opponents this year, and in the last State
game, they were beaten on the boards b a
40-22 margin.
"We're going to just have to concentrate
on our rebounding more." Stahl said. Other
teams realize our capabilities and work tw ice
as hard on the boards. So far they've been
successful."
The Tar Heels have been working extra
hard on rebounding in practice, and Stahl
feels the team is ready to take on State.
"I'm not overconfident by thinking. "Well.
State's time has come." I am confident in the
fact that I know if we do what we're capable
of doing, we're going to beat them.
"Let me put it this way." he concluded.
"I'm definitely not afraid of playing them."

O'Donne!
ahead of us and I'm sure that they're
confident that they can win: that's the
attitude that both teams have to have.
"Really, when you're talking about
confidence, then you're talking about all the
mental aspects of the game."
Still, the tension of the big rivalry, the
antagonism that has built up between the
two perennial foes, does affect O'Donnell.
"This is the most important game in the
conference. State realizes that, we know it
and its going to affect the ACC tournament."
Nobody will know until tonight exactly
how State will play or what it will take to
beat them, but besides the team confidence
and concentration, each player will have to
be prepared to play his best.
"I know there are things that I can do
better: I could box out more underneath." he
said.
"Other than that. I just want to play my
regular game." he said, and went back to his
sandwich.
