McMishts weekend

The women's soccer team will
begin its playoff drive for a fifth
national title in six years Sunday at
home to highlight weekend sports
action.
The women's team, 21-0-1 and the
unanimous choice at No. 1 going
into the 10-team tournament, will
play Santa Barbara at 1 p.m. Sunday
at Fetzer Field. Santa Barbara
defeated Cincinnati 1-0 this past
Sunday in the first round of the
NCAAs.
The Tar Heel defense has 15
shutouts to its credit this season, and
the team has rolled up some incred
ible statistics. However, the team
received a blow last weekend when
All-America forward April Hein
richs hurt her knee in a blue-white
scrimmage game. Whether the star
forward will be available for the
game is questionable.
Field hockey also begins its post
season play, journeying to East
Brunswick, N.J. for its first-round
game. The Tar Heels will open
tournament play Sunday against the

Hail to the King, may he live long
and prosper.
This basketball season hasn't even
started yet, but for those of you
worrying about who can play point
for the Tar Heels after Kenny Smith
is gone, welcome King Rice, a 6-0
passing wizard from Binghamton,
N.Y. Rice has started every game
since his freshman year for Bingh
amton. During that time he has led
the Patriots to a 66-5 overall mark
and two state championships.
Last year he averaged 14.5 points
per game, had nine assists and shot
54 percent from the field. He is a
third team prep All-America,
according to Street & Smith's, and
is destined to make headline writers

Cram, Welsfii to skif mislh

By JAMES SUROWIECKI
Assistant Sports Editor
tn the ceaseless quest to never
write a straight lead if it can be
helped, Saturday's UNC Virginia
game is a welcome surprise. For this
is no ordinary late-season, we'd-rather-see-these-teams-playing-basketball
contest. No, this is a game
which can only be called the Battle
of the Coaches with Broken Bones
(no relation to the Battle of the
Network Stars).
Tar Heel coach Dick Crum will
be the clear favorite over Wahoo
coach George Welsh in this game,
though. First of all, Crum has had
his injury longer, since he broke his
leg Sept. 20 when tailback Derrick
Fenner ran him over on the sideline.
Welsh broke his ankle just a week
ago. So Crum has tenure.
In addition, Crum suffered his
rather ignominious fate in a game
situation, coaching his team against
Florida State. Welsh's mishap, on
the other hand, occurred in practice
last Thursday. And certainly a
wound suffered in the heat of battle
Wolf is described as a model student,
although education professor Gerald
Unks notes, "His girlfriend takes
notes for both of them.,,
In another basketball note, Kenny
Smith has been picked as the pre
season player-of-the-year by
sportswriters covering the confer
ence. J.R. Reid was selected as
rookie-of-the-year, and the Tar
Heels were picked to win the ACC.

is more impressive than one received
during basic training.
Finally, and most importantly,
Welsh will be hard-pressed to match
the Crum-Mobile, the coach's mag
nificent golf cart which has gotten
rave reviews and was featured on the
cover of the game program two
weeks ago. Unless Welsh appears in
a Rolls, the Crum-Mobile will carry
the day. No Hyundais, George, if you
please.
So Crum has all the advantages.
But if it came down to a Kenan
Stadium popularity contest, a Crum
victory would be far from guaran
teed. Tar Heel fans, displeased with
UNC's 5-3-1 record, have been
vilifying Crum for his perceived
mellow attitude and lack of offensive
imagination. The cries reached a
crescendo this past week after
Clemson trounced UNC 38-10 in
Death Valley.
But what the critics refuse to
consider is that the team they were
so high on when it was 4-0-1 is, in
many respects, the same team it is
now. The coaching philosophy
hasn't changed and the style of play
has similarly stayed the same. The
personnel has, however, changed.
And the defense has been consist
ently bad over the last five weeks,
giving up 30 or more points in each
of those game.
Contributing to the personnel
turnover and the defensive woes have
been injuries. Linebacker Brett
Rudolph, guard Reuben Davis and
safety Norris Davis have been
battling nagging injuries all year, and
that has been tough on the defense.
The most notable change, of
course, involves Kenan hero Mark
Maye, playing instead of Jon Hall
at quarterback. The Tar Heels, by
the way, were the aforementioned 4-0-1
under Hall and are an unmen

The Cavs aren't doing much
better, with a 3-6 record. But at least
they have some momentum after
beating an Erik Kramer-less N.C.
State 20-16 last week. Freshmah
back Durwin Greggs, a real Clydes
dale, carried for 177 yards and
sophomore Kevin Morgan picked up
104. This is Welsh's worst year as
a Wahoo. But maybe 3-6 isn't so bad
for a team whose 1985 MVP, Barry
Word, pleaded guilty to being a
small-time distributor in a big-time
cocaine ring.
Last year, the Tar Heels went up
to Virginia with faint hopes of a bowl
game still alive. A backup quarter
back named Scott Secules sent those
hopes a'glimmering in a 24-22
Wahoo victory. This year, UNC
could still finish 7-3-1, an amazingly
soft 7-3-1, but seven wins is seven
wins. And the Hall of Fame Bowl
is sending someone to the game.
But that's not what really matters.
What does is the Welsh-Crum battle.
So don't look for a coin flip to decide
which team kicks off to start the
game. Instead, Welsh and Crum are
going to duel with crutches at
midfield.
NOTES: UNC has not beaten
Virginia in the past three years, with
the three games being decided by 'a
total of five points . . . UNC is 4
0 in games in which the team has
more than 200 yardss rushing . J;.
Derrick Fenner needs 122 yards to
break the 1,000-yard barrier . .
Besides Crum and Welsh, two other
ACC coaches will be hobbled in a
different matter Saturday. Clerr
son's Danny Ford and Maryland
Bobby Ross will both be in the
pressbox for various well-publicizeg
infractions.
