Sports
unc Athlete of the week I .Women's teems stoats out N. Co State
Good morning Mr. Briggs. We
hope you are quite satisfactorily
recovered from your most recent
trip.
On your right you will notice a
picture of Greg Parker. He is a senior
on the UNC golf team. His place
of birth is Old Fort. In his most
recent golf tournament, the Iron
Duke Classic in Durham, his three
under par total of 210 helped him
walk away with the individual title
while leading his team to a second
place finish.
Your mission, if you wish to
accept it. is to present Mr. Parker
with the UNC Athlete of the Week
Award. We should warn you, how
ever, that Mr. Parker putts to kill.
Good luck, Mr. Briggs, and
godspeed.
This paper will self destruct in five
seconds. (April Fools).

On Tuesday, 31 March 1987,
another chapter in this school's
historic rivalry with the Wolf pack of.
N.C. State was closed. Yet instead
of the men's basketball squad doing
battle with such storied personalities
as Chris Washburn and Charles
Shakleford, the contest featured the
two women's tennis teams, as the Tar
Heels rocked the Wolfpack by a
humiliating score of 9-0.
So overwhelming was UNCs
dominance that State did not win
a a single set all afternoon. "This is
one of those days that makes me
proud to be a coach," said coach
Kitty Harrison. "Even though the
doubles Was not exceptionally
strong, the entire team was very
consistent and that was all that we
needed against this particular team."
With yesterday's victory, the record
de l'equipe rose to 19-7, 3-0 in ACC
play.
As usual, the team was led by its
No. 1 and No. 2 siiigles players, Gina
Goblirsch and Spencer Barnes. G2
handily defeated her opponent,
Katie Fleming, 6-1, 6-3, while Barnes
routed Mary Lloyd Hodges 6-2, 6
3. Said Harrison, "Both Gina and
Spencer were exceptional. Gina,
once again, played some of her finest
tennis and Spencer exhibited excel
lent mental toughness."
. The team has little chance to
celebrate, though, as the Tar Heels
venture today into the Gothic shad
ows of the Duke Chapel. The Blue
Devils are led by the freshman
O'Reilly triplets, Terri, Patti, and
Christine, who last year were among
the best junior players in America.

Heels wallop Wake
By SCOTT FOWLER
Staff Writer
In a 10-second microcosm of the
mismatch at Boshamer Stadium
Tuesday, Wake Forest shortstop
Brian Shabosky faded back into the
grass to take a routine pop fly in
the sixth inning. "All mine!" shouted
the Demon Deacon, as he pounded
his glove, backpedaled slightly and
unceremoniously plopped to the
ground.
Jesse Levis' two-out pop fly
dropped in and North Carolina
scored two more runs due to the
error on its way to a 16-3 devastation
of the Demon Deacons. The Tar
Heels, averaging slightly more than
10 runs a game and riding an 11
game win streak, pounded 14 hits
and scored in every inning but two.
UNC is now 16-6 and 4-0 in the
ACC, while Wake dropped to 13
15 and 0-2.
Things got so bad for the Deacons
that in the sixth inning they were
forced to bring in pitcher Craig
Gourlay, who had walked 39 batters
in 12 innings and had a whopping
21.75 ERA. Gourlay allowed four
earned runs in 2 23 innings to lower
his ERA, and also angered UNC
coach Mike Roberts by hitting two
Tar Heel batters and almost clipping
several others.
"Are you telling me that he's trying
to get the ball over the plate throwing
like that?" Roberts asked the umpire
after Gourlay pegged Brian
Chandler.
"He's walked 40 batters in 10
innings, for gosh sakes," said weary
Wake manager Marvin Crater from
the visitors' dugout.
Crater was hardly exaggerating, as
Gourlay has now walked 43 batters
in 14 23 innings, or about three an
inning. But the Deacons have few
good arms, and no pitcher with less
than a 4.00 ERA, which is why they
left Gourlay in.
Roberts said afterwards he had
been concerned for his players'
safety. "I didn't want my hitters to
get hurt," he said. "It was no
problem, really, but that guy was
wild."
Unlike its opponent, UNC has a
surplus of young, talented pitchers.
Freshman Michael Hoog got his
fourth straight win this year with a
solid performance, pitching 6 23
innings and allowing three runs.
"Mike is an intelligent pitcher,"
Roberts said of the freshman he will
start in a crucial game against
Clemson Sunday. "He's given us a
big boost, because we needed a
lefthanded starter."
The Tar Heel bats were led by
Devy Bell and Darin Campbell. Bell
had three hits, including a towering
homer over the 378-foot sign in left
field. Campbell drove in four runs
and had a double. Chris DeFranco
added a solo homer.
But nearly all the Tar Heels
contributed to the effort. The team
stole nine bases to go along With its
14 hits. "I was pleased because on
a cold, blustery day we got ready
to play," Roberts said.
UNC will play Davidson away on
Thursday before traveling to Geor
gia Tech and Clemson this weekend.
The supermarket with
Knight in shining armor
"Sure, I'm tickled," Coach Bob
Knight said after his third NCAA
championship Monday night.
Tickled? Doesn't that sound a little
too petite an emotion for for the man
whose epithets can peel the finish off
any hardwood floor? "Hell yeah, I'm
happy," or "It was the worst damn
refereeing I have ever seen," would
have seemed more appropriate for
the volatile court general.
But why worry about what he
might say? He is crazy isn't he? I
used to hate Bob Knight. I watched
him curse out player after player in
full view of horrified spectators. I
heard about his grasping of Mike
Giomi's genitalia to "see if he was
a man." I read of his disposal of an
obnoxious LSU fan in 1981 into a
trash can. I read John Feinstein's
description of Knight cursing for
ward Daryl Thomas to tears in A
Season on the Brink, and of putting
a tampon in the locker of Landon
Turner, once again as a check of
manhood. I liked Bob Knight as a
coach about as much as Charles
Manson doing United Way
commercials.
But IVe changed my mind. Not
only do I like Knight as a coach,
I think he is the best in the college
game today. (Pause.) Feel free to
release your favorite curse words
now while I defer for a moment.
"You're just caught up in Hoosier
hysteria, you jerk!" "Move back to
Indiana, you traitor. Its easy to pull
for the winner!" "What are you, the
Jim Surowiecki of the Big Ten?"
Yes, I will agree it is easy to pull
for the winner, and no, I am not
from Indiana. I despise the Big 10,
and 1 would pull for the ACC against
anybody, especially Indiana.
But 1 will stick by my choice as
Knight being the best coach. Now
that is only by a slight margin, which
is certainly open to opinion. If I had
to pick the best five coaches, a la
Dick Vitale, baby, I would take
Knight, Dean Smith, John Thomp
son, Mike Krzyzewski and Denny
Crum. Any of that group could
arguably be called the best, so let's
assume all of them are the cream of
the crop. Knight is just a little .
creamier right now.
No, this is not a Dean Smith choke
column. When you get down to it,
it doesn't matter who is on the bench.
The ball either goes in or it doesn't.
Smith will be, and rightfully so,
immortalized in the ranks of colle
giate coaches. But Knight is often
Patton McDowell
In Your Face
disregarded as a raving maniac, and
not given the credit he deserves.
I could just flaunt Knight's three
NCAA titles, an NIT title, Olympic
and Pan American gold medals,
multiple Big 10 titles and other flashy
statistics. But all of the great coaches
have impressive numbers. What
impresses me most about Knight is
the level of performance he gets out
the level of talent he has. The team
that won this year's title was hardly
the nation s most talented squad. I
can think of at least four that had
more firepower.
But Knight made the best of what
he had, and made it work. Steve Eyl
as your sixth man? Joe Hillman next
in line? Make no mistake about it,
these guys are not future all-pros, but
Knight gave them roles which were
within their abilities, and they
fulfilled them perfectly.
Sure, he frustrates his players. We
. all have a defense mechanism to
avoid what is painful, and basketball
players are no different, even when
the pain makes them better players.
Knight forces his players to over
come this barrier, and while they
may hate him at the time, they
appreciate it later. Are the methods
unusual? Well, the national cham
pion has a very unusual character
istic: there can be only one.
So you don't like Knight's
methods or his language? You
wouldn't want your grandmother
visiting one of his practices? I
wouldn't either, and I don't condone
some of his methods. But too many
fans dwell on his language as a
capital offense. Why not worry
about illegal recruiting, or drug
abuse, or academic effort in college
athletics? Knight does, and while he
may be some other things, he is
honest. Maybe painfully so, but I'm
glad someone has the guts to open
our eyes and speak out on what he
thinks is a serious problem.
I would not expect everyone to
agree with this analysis, and maybe
no one will. Believe it or not, I pulled
for Syracuse Monday night. As a
UNC fan, I still have trouble pulling
for him. But as a fan of the game
of basketball, Bob Knight has earned
my complete respect.
