Menu's soccer Heads note
:ACC tourney, meetts '
By BRENDAN MATHEWS
Staff Writer
You can tell Anson Dorrance is
excited about this weekend's ACC
Men's Soccer Tournament down in
Clemson. Just listen to him.
"I don't think any team feels
confident about the tournament," he
said. The league is a nightmare. It
always has been."
This is not to say that the rest of
the ACC is so scary that thoughts
of playing Wake Forest and Virginia
have crept into Dorrance's dreams.
The nightmare is more a chaotic
fantasy where anything can happen
preseason favorites drop to the
conference cellar, clocks stop ticking
4o accomodate last-second scores and
"teams can pull themselves out of fatal
nosedives to salvage a winning
season.
If all that isn't enough to make
coaches tear their hair out, then
there's the parity in the ACC to deal
with. Too many teams are too good.
- Over the last three years different
teams have managed to claw their
way to the top of the ACC pile and
achieve national recognition. In 1986
it was Duke who rose above and won
the NCAA title. A year later Clem
son, the eventual champion, and
UNC fought their way into the Final
!Four. This year, Virginia has been
the team riding the top of the
collegiate polls.
But no one is ready to give up and
: meekly pass the torch to UVa. While
. the Cavaliers have pieced together a
! conference record of 5-0-1, many of
: those wins have been in close games
where the balance could have easily
tipped to the other side.
The only blemish on Virginia's
record came in a scoreless battle with
this year's surprise team, Wake
Forest. The Deacons finished in the
second spot in the ACC at 3-1-2 and
look to stake their claim in the
conference with an impressive show
ing in the tournament.
N.C. State, Maryland, Clemson
and Duke are all dangerous. The
Wolfpack took fourth with a 2-3-1
iecord, while the others packed the
bottom of the rankings, sharing
identical 2-4 marks. All four finished
with impressive overall records,
proving they are good teams who
would 'Otherwise dominate if they

weren't in the ACC.
But where does all this leave the
Tar Heels?
After a miserable 3-5 start, North
Carolina finally got rolling and
rounded out the season third in the
ACC. UNC pulled a seven-game win
streak out of its bag of tricks,
knocking off Wake Forest, Maryland
and State during the stretch drive to
the tournament.
The momentum the team had
hoped would carry them to an NCAA
tournament berth came to a crashing
halt, however, in last Sundays's 3-2
loss at UNC-Charlotte.
"Sunday's loss was a big one for
two reasons," Dorrance said. "First,
it takes us off a great win streak.
Second, it means we have to win at
least two games in the ACC Tour
nament for (the NCAA selection
committee) to look at us."
The first hurdle for North Carolina
may prove to be the toughest. UNC
plays host Clemson Thursday in the
first round in a rematch of last year's
NCAA semifinal. Since beating
Clemson twice last year, once in
Chapel Hill and once in Durham in
the tournament, the Tar Heels have
lost twice to the Tigers. And both
games were played on the Tigers'
home turf.
"They play much better at home.
They showed that last year," Dor
rance said. "We beat them here and
at Durham, and then down at Clem-

son they crushed us in the semis.
"We just have to make sure our
players aren't affected by the home
crowd. We need to play the way the
way we've played during the last 10
or 11 games."
The two teams met earlier this year
in the midst of UNC's slide into the
ACC cellar. Host Clemson scored
early and hung on for a 2-1 win.
But the team that will play Clem
son today will be much different from
the one the Tigers beat in September.
Lessons learned during a frustrating
season have made the Tar Heels
better. In September they still had the
memory of last year, when nothing
could go wrong, fresh in their minds.
It may have made them too cocky
or too lax, but whatever it did, it hurt
their game.
But a lot has changed in two
months. Early-season starters have
had a chance to define their roles,
while the addition of some new faces
to the lineup has helped to tighten
up the play of North Carolina.
"Chad Ashton and Derek Missimo
are two of our personalities," Dor
rance said. "They understand the
responsibilities of their talent. Having
Chad at midfield and Derek up front
will be very important for us. The
newcomer, Richard Wachsman, a
freshman, has done a great job for
us organizing the defense. These three
are really the keys for us."
Another change for the Clemson
game will be moving Herb Sherry
into the goal in place of Darren
Royer. The two have shared time in
the net, with Sherry taking over for
a four-game stretch in mid-season
after UNC's loss to Catawba.
Royer had been the one in the goal
during the streak, but after Sunday's
loss Dorrance made the decision to
go with Sherry.
"(Sherry) has done well all year,"
Dorrance said. "We have no trouble
putting Herb in the goal when
Darren's confidence is low. All season
we've been able to go to either one
when the other's play is off."
UNC will also count on strong
performances from the standards
who have helped bring them to this
point, most notably Donald Cogs
ville, the team scoring leader. Since
returning from a concussion suffered
in a controversial loss at Duke,
Cogsville has powered in goals at a
furious pace. The senior picked up
his first career hat trick at Lenoir
Rhyne and added two scores in last
week's win over UNC-Greensboro.
Cogsville's ability to run the break
will be a key in today's game.
If UNC can defeat Clemson, they
will face the winner of the Wake
Forest-Duke game in the second
round Friday. But before UNC can
start thinking rematch with Duke or
NCAA berth, they must first concen
trate on Clemson.
The Tar . Heels have shown that
when they get intense they can top
any team in the conference. They were
able to redeem themselves for the
season with an inspired stretch drive,
but in the tournament there are no
second chances. You either win, or
you go home.
The Tar Heels know this. Now is
their chance to wake up and end the
nightmare.

Reid's injury leaves him,
Tar Heels feeling antsy
Before UNC's curiously tight
109-100 battle with Marathon Oil
Tuesday night, Tar Heels star
forward J.R. Reid was the object
of attention from a pack of little
girls.
The group of five youngsters
stood in Row Y in the Smith
Center and yelled in unison, "Hey,
J.R.," trying desperately to get the
attention of the 6-foot-9 junior.
Reid, who didnt play Tuesday due
to a stress fracture in his left foot,
turned and waved to the girls after
their fourth call.
The girls all blushed.
Reid then sat and watched the
game from a position he has rarely
known oh his rump as Pete
Chilcutt scored 23 points in his
place to lead the Tar Heels to the
exhibition win.
And afterwards, the sportswri
ters asked Reid, who was decked
out in a double-breasted grey suit
and lavender shirt, if he was upset
about not playing for the next two
months due to his injury.
"I'm upset that I couldn't play
tonight," he said with a slight grin
on his 19-year-old baby face. "But
hopefully IH be back closer to the
sixth week than the eighth week
that the doctors say 111 be back
in.
Being injured is as new to the
Virginia Beach, Va., native as not
being able to sink his Charmin
soft turnaround jumper.
"It was a shock at first," Reid
said after Tuesday's game. "The
doctors told me it wasn't a break
and that it was a spot that could
become a break. They said if I had
Weiss imammed ABs too rookie
From Associated Press reports
NEW YORK Shortstop Walt
Weiss was selected American League
Rookie of the Year Wednesday by
the Baseball Writers Association of
America, the third straight season a
member of the Oakland Athletics has
won the honor. - -.
Weiss, an All-ACC player for UNC
from 1983-85, received 103 points and
17 first-place votes from a panel of
28 writers, two from each AL city.
Right-hander Bryan Harvey of the
California Angels was second with 49
points, one ahead of infielder Jody
Reed of the Boston Red Sox. Reed,
however, had six first-place votes to
three for Harvey.
On Tuesday, Chris Sabo of Cin
cinnati was named National League
Rookie of the Year.
Oakland's Jose Canseco was Roo
kie of the Year in 1986 and first
baseman Mark McGwire won the
award last year. While Canseco and
McGwire brought the A's power,
Weiss' slick fielding helped Oakland
win the AL pennant.
Only one of Weiss' 15 errors came
after July 8, and he handled 261
straight chances over 58 consecutive
games without an error down the
stretch.
Weiss hit .250 with three homers
and 39 runs batted in. He also had
17 doubles and a grand slam at
Detroit on July 10.
The 6-foot, 175-pound Weiss was
the A's No. 1 pick 'in the June 1985
draft after attending UNC He moved
up to Class AA Huntsville in 1986
and last year hit .285 there, .263 in
Class AAA Tacoma and .462 in 16
games with Oakland before getting
off to a shaky start this season.

surgery now, I wouldn't have to
worry about it for the rest of my
basketball career.
"But it was a real shock. IVe
never had an injury before."
With the Tar Heels schedule
including appearances in the Big
Apple NIT Classic and the Tour
nament of Champions in Char
lotte, the absence of Reid on the
floor could be a real shock to the
Tar Heels. But UNC coach Dean
Smith says a Reid-less UNC is not
a hopeless UNC.
"Last year, J.R. was the first
option on offense," Smith said at
the Atlantic Coast Conference's
annual Operation Basketball.
"This year, we hadn't planned the
offensive attack to go directly to
him, or we'd really be in trouble.
"There's no question that he's
a big part of our offense, but we
are trying to emphasize the run
ning game. So, we wont have to
change our plans drastically for
the next seven to eight weeks."
But even with Smith's optim
ism, the Tar Heels will definitely
miss Reid, who averaged 18.9
points and 8.9 rebounds for UNC
last season.
After the Blue-White game, the
players had expressed their shock
over the injury to as Sports
Illustrated once put it, much to the
chagrin of Smith North Carol
ina's Main Man.

Bears coach Mike Ditka suffered a
mild heart attack Wednesday after his
daily workout at the team's training
camp and was hospitalized in serious
condition.
The 49-year-old Ditka was alert
and conscious and being treated at
the intensive care unit of Lake Forest
Hospital, said Dr. Jay Alexander, a
staff cardiologist. Ditka's wife,
Diana, was at the hospital with him.
Alexander said he expected Ditka
would recover completely, "barring
anything unforseen."
Ditka was given medicine for a
blocked artery and Alexander said
the coach would require hospitaliza
tion for at least a week while doctors
determined the extent of the
blockage.
Club spokesman Bryan Harlan
said Ditka was getting dressed to
make an appearance at a rally for
George Bush at Stevenson High
School in nearby Prairie View when
he suffered chest pains.

New tennis tour planned
LONDON The future of men's
professional tennis was thrown into
disarray when the players' union
broke away from the sport's govern
ing body and announced it will start
its own tour in 1990.
Organizers of the Grand Prix
circuit, which has controlled men's
tennis since 1970, pledged to continue
their tour. They warned that the split
with the players and the establish
ment of two competing circuits would
cause "fragmentation and chaos."
The Association of Tennis Profes
sionals, which includes almost all the
world's leading players, said 21
already had signed binding contracts
to compete on the new tour.
The ATP said Ivan Lendl, ranked
second in the world, has signed a
