4The Daily Tar HeelThursday, September 26, 1 991 Women's soccer shuts down Highlanders v 3-0 Staff and wire reports RADFORD, Va. Kristine Lilly scored two goals and a Highlander defender generously added a third as the undefeated and top-ranked UNC women's soccer team shutout Radford 3-0 Wednesday. UNC, 7-0overall, allowed only four shots on goal in upending the High landers, who are 3-3 on the year. UNC has never lost to Radford in 12 previ ous meetings. Lilly, the 1990 national player of the year, tallied her first goal 1 :08 into the contest before adding her second on a penalty kick at the 9: 1 0 mark. The Wilton, Conn., native leads the team with seven goals and 1 2 points on the year, and has earned two consecutive ACC player-of-the-week awards. UNC's third goal came when a Radford defender mishandled the ball, kicking it past Highlander goalie Jen nifer Snead at the 74.00 mark. UNC has allowed only one goal this season, a mark upheld Wednes day by goalkeepers Lori Walker and Jenn Eames, who split time in the net for the Tar Heels. Monroe signs with Hawks ATLANTA The Atlanta Hawks signed guard Rodney Monroe, their second-round draft pick, to a two year NBA contract Wednesday. The 6-foot-3, 185-pound Monroe was the Atlantic Coast Conference player of the year last season at North Carolina State. He averaged 27 points a game, seventh in the nation, and was N.C. State's all-time leading scorer with 2,55 1 career points. Braves arrested in DUI incidents ATLANTA The AtlantaBraves sent Brian Hunter and Keith Mitchell for physical examinations Wednes day after the two were arrested in separate drunken driving incidents, but did not immediately indicate if the rookies would be disciplined. Atlanta police said Mitchell, 22, a reserve outfielder, was charged with driving under the influence, driving with a suspended license and hitting a fixed object after his car ran into a median on 1-75-85 downtown about 5:15 a.m. Wednesday. He was re leased about 8:30 a.m. on $ 1 ,043 bond, police said. In suburban Cobb County, authori ties said reserve first baseman Hunter, 23, was charged with driving under the influence and making an improper lane change after an accident at 4 a.m. Hunter was released on $710 bond. Late surge keys field hockey win, 3-1 By Matt Johnson Staff Writer No one would have been shocked to see Aquaman swim by Wednesday night under the lights of Navy Field. While no members of the Justice League showed up, UNC's field hockey team did, defeating Radford 3-1 in con ditions ranging from light drizzle to torrential downpour. Coach Karen Shelton's Tar Heels improved their record to 5-2. The High landers fell to 6-2. "The rain can be an equalizer," Shelton said of the weather. "Under conditions like this it can be easy to let up, but we should be able to adjust to it." Despite outshooting Radford 20-2, the Tar Heels had more than their share of trouble with the underdog Highland ers, whom they had defeated 10-0 last year. "Radford is a much-improved team," Shelton said. "We might have expected an easier game." Sophomore forward Stephanie Walsh 9' ;. :s"',;:. VOi Mary Hartzell opened the scoring 15 minutes into the first half, pushing a shot past Radford goalie Cathleen Cavanaugh from five yards out. Walsh's goal was the only scoring in the first half, however, as UNC failed to capitalize on six penalty corners. Radford wasted little time in the sec ond half before knotting the score. Less than five minutes into the half, senior forward Michelle Malebranche col lected a Kersten Braun penalty corner and pumped a hard shot past Tar Heel goalie Peggy Storrar. Malebranche's goal seemed to mo mentarily stun UNC, but the Tar Heels quickly regrouped. A Kelly Staley pen alty corner 1 3 minutes into the half led to three quick North Carolina shots, but Cavanaugh was up to the task on all three. UNC was hampered by the absence of All-ACC midfielder Nancy Lang, who suffered a concussion in the Tar Heels' loss to Penn State ten days ago. She is expected to sit out today's game against Virginia Commonwealth before returning to action against national champion Old Dominion Saturday. "Obviously this throws us off a little bit," Shelton said of Lang's injury. "Nancy is a k- our team." Shelton did praise the y of freshman Jessica Grasso, who stepped in for the injured Lang. As the second half wound down, Radford had a chance to sneak out of Chapel Hill with a tie. While LNC consistently controlled the ball, it had no success in getting a shot by Cavanaugh. With less than nine minutes remain ing, UNC's All-America sweeper, Jen nifer Clark, took matters into her own hands. Clark collected the ball 20 yards from Cavanaugh and rifled a shot past the stunned Radford goalie. "I was pleased that Jennifer took charge," Shelton said. 'That's what se niors need to do." Less than two minutes later, UNC put the game away. Freshman Amy Moyers broke through the middle of the Highlanders' defense and launched a shot that hit the post. Mary Hartzell was there to put the rebound into the cage and put Radford down for the count. Rain evens soccer matchup, but UNC wins By David J.

GrMnhniu London SittwUr.,ChptlHil But by literally drenching Fetzer Field all afternoon and into the match, Mother Nature had done the Mounties the big gest favor she could have possibly done short of postponing the match. On a rain-soaked field, the Tar Heels won an ugly 2-0 decision over ASU. UNC will enter Sunday's showdown at Virginia unbeaten at 7-0-1. Despite outshooting the Mountain eers 23-7, the wet grass plus the brill iant play of goalkeeper Earl Morgan limited UNC to one score in each of the halves. "(The rain) certainly didn't work to ward our advantage," UNC head coach Elmar Bolowich said. "We could not play our technical play. We had to change our whole strategy." UNC forward Todd Haskins said: "The rain, it makes everything even. If a weaker team plays a stronger team, the better team can't play their strengths. They played well, but if we had played on a dry day on a dry field, it might have been a lot different." The field, already in pretty bad shape QJ?i w nr n Word Processors Special Purchase jor STUDENTS AND FACULTY Call Buddy Bantel 600-422-3350 or 919-668-3443 Panasonic KX-W905 at the beginning of the match, only got wetter as the game went along. By the end of the match, kicking the ball even 10 yards on the ground was a struggle. "You strike the ball, and the ball moves funny and all of a sudden stops," Bolowich said. "Technically, you re ally can't prepare a shot. If you get it where you want it to go, it is based, on luck." Ben Di Meo's second-half goal dem onstrated how hard it was to kick the ball on the ground. He took a pass from Derek Kepner, dribbled through the water into the penalty box and shot past a sliding Morgan. The shot stopped a few feet in front of the empty goal, forcing Di Meo to follow up a shot that ordinarily would have gone in easily. Instead of advancing the ball on the ground with short passes and then open ing the game up with longer passes, the Tar Heels had to move the ball more through the air. UNC passed from the defense to the frontline, often bypass ing the midfield. UNC kept the ball on the Mountain eers' side of the field for much of the first half but could only capitalize once against Morgan, who had nine saves. At 1 7:38 into the match, UNC's Chris Lyn centered the ball to David Moore, who from 19 yards out lofted it over the crowd of defenders and just under the crossbar for his second goal of the year. smT5)TO5yi srfe U r A T ... - .
