Injured! metinen win 6-3
By EDDIE WOOTEN
Sufr Writer
Despite the absence of two of its top six
players, the Carolina men's tennis team
defeated West Virginia 6-3 yesterday in a
non-conference match on the Hinton
James courts.
No. 1 Ray Disco and No. 4 Ken
Whitaker were out of yesterday's lineup
because of injuries. Both will also miss to
day's Atlantic Coast Conference match
with Wake Forest, "the injuries will
make us a drastic underdog against Wake
Forest and N.C. State (Saturday)," ten
nis coach Allen Morris said. "It's a
shame it had to happen now, but that's
just the way it is."
Disco, a senior from Forest Hills, N.Y.
injured his right arm playing against
Virginia Tuesday when he collided with a
fence during play. He will miss the State
match in Raleigh but will try to return to
action next Monday against Old Domi
nion. Whitaker, a junior from Salisbury,
played the Virginia match with no feeling
in his right hand and fingers. Morris said
Whitaker will enter the hospital today for
an arteriogram designed to check for
blood clots in the right arm.
Since Whitaker and Disco were in
jured, Morris decided to use some of his
players who had seen limited action.
Craig Sheridan, playing at No. 5,
responded with a 7-6 (8-6), 6-2 victory
over Joe Chambers. D'Arcy Carroll,
seeded sixth, defeated Jim Vandewater in
three sets, 3-6, 6-4, 6-2. Neil Alderman,
playing the fourth position, lost to Dave
Romito 6-3, 5-7, 6-4.
Carolina won two other singles matches.
No. 2 Ken Ludwig beat George Vcronis
6-4, 6-3, while No. 3 Josh Sarner beat
John Nilsen 6-3, 6-2.
In doubles, Carolina's No. 1 team of
Ron Erskine and" John X3riggTought their
way to a 6-3, 6-7 (5-7), 6-4 win over
Romito and Pete Perrotta. The third
seeded duo of Alderman and Carroll also
won, beating Veronis and Vandewater,
6-1,6-3.
With Disco out for the rest of the week
and Whitaker possibly lost for the
season, Morris will be forced to make
changes. "In order to preserve our
seedings for the tournament, we will in
sert Robbie Bach into the No. 4 position
and Alderman into the No. 1 position,"
he said. "I'm sure Robbie and Neil will
do good jobs for us." Whitaker, who
also plays No. 3 doubles with Bach, will
be replaced by Sarner.
The Tar Heels, 2-2 in the ACC and
12-10 overall, will meet Wake Forest at 2
p.m. today on the James. courts. "Wake
is always tough for us," Morris said. "If
we had not been injured, we woulcThave
had a real good chance. But now we have
to be a decided underdog. It will be quite
an upset if we beat Wake with two of our
top players out."

The North Carolina women's tennis team dropped its eighth
match of the spring season Tuesday when the Lady Tar Heels
lost to nationally ranked South Carolina in Columbia, 7-2.
The match in Columbia was the culmination of a road trip
that also took the team to Austin, Texas to play in the Lady
Longhorn Invitational.
Last weekend in Texas, Carolina had the opportunity to play
the UCLA Bruins, ranked No. 1 by the Intercollegiate Tennis
Coaches Association. Although the Bruins blanked No. 16
Carolina 9-0, coach Kitty Harrison was still pleased with the
team's performance.
"We had some close points and games," she said. "But it was
just a treat to get to play them."
The most disappointing loss came against ACC foe Clemson.
The Tar Heels played a close match only to lose 5-4. "We may
have gotten too high emotionally and lost our concentration,"
Harrison said.
Carolina did pick up one win at the Lady Longhorn, beating
Louisiana State 7-2. Harrison said the win was nice, but pretty
much expected. "We had beaten LSU in the fall by the same
score, so I was not that surprised."
Eight teams competed in the tournament, with UNC finishing
seventh. One bright spot was the play of No. 2 Betsy
Heidenberger. Heidenberger won two of three singles matches,
as did No. 3 Margie Brown.
On Tuesday, Carolina traveled to Columbia to face 7th
ranked South Carolina. The women were able to pull over only
two matches. Picking up the wins were Heidenberger and
Brown. Heidenberger downed Cindy Trower 6-1, 6-0 and
Brown topped Harriet Prothro 6-4, 6-0.
Harrison said she did not expect to win the match but said the
team could have played better. Specifically, she talked about
losing close sets and double-faulting at crucial times.
"Right now there also seems to be a problem with motiva
tion, but the problem does not include the entire team," Har
rison said.
Carolina, now 11-8 overall, will try to regain winning form
when the team goes back on the road Friday to play Tennessee
in Knoxville. Harrison said the Lady Vols' team, which includes
three sisters from Australia, is a solid team from top to bottom.

Softball's popularity keeps growing
Although it's hard to tell from recent
low temperatures and high winds, spring
is . definitely here. One sure sign of
spring's arrival is the annual emergence
of softball fever on campus.
This year is no exception. More than
300 intramural softball teams are com
peting in eight different leagues.
The current season, which began
March 15, has reached the halfway point.
Playoffs for all leagues are scheduled to
begin April 19.
Softball is second in popularity only to
basketball, according to assistant in
tramural director Janis Matson.
"On the whole, I would say softball is
the most fun sport we offer," Matson
"saI(L "It's'reafly easy to take a laid-back
attitude towards the game."
While only three of the eight leagues
are recreational, there are 169 teams com
peting in recreational play.
Matson also noted a steady increase
over the past few years in the number of
teams playing in the recreational leagues.
The major reason for this increase in
recreational league teams can be at
tributed to the nature of the sport.
While the best softball players are
usually good athletes, one does not have
to be blessed with an enormous amount
of talent to play the game adequately.
"Softball is a sport that coordinates
with partying and having a good time
very well," Matson said. "There is a lot
less pressure to win in softball than in
some of our other sports.
"The main purpose of intramurals is to
go out and have a good time," she added.
"Softball definitely serves this purpose."
Despite the tremendous amount of par
ticipation, the intramural department has
experienced relatively little difficulty in
handling the number of games played.
Six-fields four on Carmichael field
and two on Ehringhaus field are cur
rently used to accommodate the busy
schedule.
IM's & CLUBS
By MORRIS HAYWOOD
Games are played Sunday through
Thursday from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. on Car
michael field and from 7 to 10 p.m. on
Ehringhaus Field. There are also games at
Ehringhaus from 3 until 9 p.m. on Sun
days. Even with well over 200 games schedul
ed each week, Matson said the intramural
department was looking into the
possibility of scheduling more games.
"With the recent rain-outs, some
teams are realty pushing for more
games," she said. "After Easter we will
probably try to schedule some Friday and
Saturday afternoon games."
The UNC sailing team recently finished
second in the North Division of SAISA.
The team will be competing at Clemson in
the SAISA Championships. Skippers for
the culmination of the team's spring
season will be Ann Stokes and Jay Kopp.
