Fencing tradition rolls quietly on
UNC wrestlers,
Lam set sights
high once again
By BOB YOUNG
Staff Writer
The last two years of wrestling at UNC
have been the most successful in the
school's history. The Tar Heels finished
fifth in the nation in 1982 and followed
that up with a 17th-place finish last
season. If Coach Bill Lam and his squad
have any say in the matter, this season
won't be a disappointment either.
"The goals that we've set for ourselves
are high but definitely within reach," says
Lam, whose team is shooting for a finish
among the nation's top 10 schools.
Joel Goodwin, who is co-captain along
with the other seniors, ranks this year's
team as the best he's been on in his career
at North Carolina. "This squad has as
much pure talent as any team I've been
on, probably more so," he says. "The
team morale is also very good, even
though we've had some injuries."
The injuries are not by any means small
ones, either. John Aumiller (126) has a
broken hand, Jon Cardi, (150) is getting
over a staph infection and Tom Gorry
(heavyweight) is rehabilitating a separated
shoulder.
Despite the setbacks, the Tar Heels still
have many quality wrestlers to show their
opponents. Depth is probably their
strongest asset.
"Two years ago, (All-American) C. D.
Mock carried the team a lot," says senior
Bill Gaffney. "This year we're much
more balanced all around."
At the lower weights, senior Wes
Hallman describes the lineup as "very
tough." At 118, sophomore Chip McAr
dle figures to be the starter. He's been to
the finals of the Southern Open and the
Penn State Invitational already this year,
coming up short to the wrestlers ranked

Senior Tim Plott will fight for a starting spot at 150 pounds.
first and second in the nation at that
weight. At 126, Hallman and Aumiller
are expected to battle for the starting
position. Hallman took third at Penn
State, while Aumiller finished second in
the ACC last year. Pete Mankowich will
be the starter at 134.
Senior Tim Plott characterizes the mid
dle weights as "strong with a lot of
depth." However, sophomore Matt King
was injured against Liberty Baptist
University on Tuesday and may miss a .
great deal of competition with a bruised
kidney. Leo Palacio or Randy Lowery,
both sophomores, should be available to
fill the gap. At 150, Plott will battle Car
di, the nation's most heavily recruited
wrestler. The starting spot at 158 will go
to either sophomore Tad Wilson or
freshman Stocky Cabe. Gaffney will
move down from his present weight at
177 to take over the 167 spot. He is a
three-time NCAA qualifier and finished
third at Penn State.
The heavier weights are not weak spots
either, says senior Bob Shriner.

"Many teams try to get a lot of points
early so they don't have to burden the
heavyweights," he says, "but we don't
have to worry about that." At 177, Craig
Spivey, a freshman who finished third in
the Southern Open, will probably start.
Shriner, second at the Southern Open,
will take the position at 190. Sophomore
Stacey Davis is expected to stay in the
heavyweight division until Gorry, a
senior, can return.
It seems that the only thing tougher
than the Tar Heels' depth is . their
schedule, which includes top-20 teams
Iowa State, Wisconsin, and N.C. State.
But the wrestlers seem to be up to the
challenge, especially the seniors.
"This is our last year and we want to
go far," says Gorry.

Early this fall, those who knew that the North Carolina fenc
ing team existed doubted it would ever return to its lofty stature
of seasons past.
As recently as last year, North Carolina placed third in the
NCAA tournament. The Tar Heels' John Friedberg was an un
defeated national champion and Ron Miller was named national
coach of the year.
The Tar Heels lost seven of their top nine fencers to gradua
tion, however, and questions started to circulate concerning the
probablity of maintaining national excellence without the benefit
of athletic scholarships.
"Everyone wrote us off before the season,' but we've pro
gressed well this fall," Miller said. "Everyone said we'd decline,
but that's not true and never will be."
The repeated fielding of a powerful team and successful
seasons have placed major roles in North Carolina's ability to
gain respect from a begrudging press and a public which knows
little about the sport.
"The team did well last yean, so we're getting a little more
recognition," said Amiel Rossabi, a senior from New York City.
"We handle it (the lack of publicity) well here by making a joke
out of it. (But) the other athletes give us respect, and the people
who come to see us compete come back."
Success seems to be the reason for the team's faithful, but
small, following, and there is no question Miller is a big reason
for the success. Eight of a possible 10 ACC championships, an
assortment of 17 trophies in Carmichael Auditorium's showcase
and last year's coach of the year honors are only part of the
story behind Miller.
"If there's a fencer in the South, it's all due to him," Rossabi
said of Miller, who is coaching the United States' sabre division
in next summer's Olympic Games in Los Angeles.
Rossabi. the last recruit on the men's team ramp North
Carolina when his coach (now the coach of the U.S. Pan
American team) recommended Miller.
Tuesday evening, Miller was working individually with four
fencers who had signed up for some private instruction. North
Carolina has ended practice for the remainder of the semester,
but Miller continues to make himself available to assist 43 men
and women fencers.
UNC's fencers, while formerly recruited on a small scale, now
come out of physical education classes and may or may not have
some background in another sport. Previous experience with
fencing, except in Miller's physical education class, is a rarity.
"Basically, you try to do three things," Miller said, explain
ing his recipe for developing a fencer. "First, look for the best
athlete. Second, get them in class or in a tryout. And third, work
them like hell."
UNC faced Haverford last Friday in a dual meet and came
away with a 17-10 victory that was assured when the Tar Heels
took an early 14-6 lead in the 27-bout competition.
Richard Hoile, a senior from England, and senior Chris
Heinlein each won both of their bouts without allowing their op
ponents a touch, 5-0 and 5-0. Will Williams won his first varsity
bout, also without being touched.
Miller took his starters out of their third bouts (nine fencers
usually have three bouts a match) Friday to give the less ex
perienced fencers some time on the runway.
"The third round is always for the substitutes, unless it's a
close match," Miller said. "If they (the starters) do their job,
they should only have two bouts."
With 11 competitions this fall, including five national (in
dividual) opens, the North Carolina fencing team is gearing up
for the first-ever national team tournament in January, and later
the NCAAs.
"Athletically, we're as good as we've ever been," Miller said.
"We intend to be nationally competitive for a long time with
or without experience and with or without scholarships."
Sports staff to meet
The Daily Tar Heel sports staff will
