OatOi By Mike Steadman It looks like the Hoke County High School Bucks got back on track Tuesday night with an impressive win over the Lumberton Pirates. Considering the fact that Lumberton was listed in the top ten in the region before the season started, this is definitely a very good sign. Maybe Coach Smith is whipping up his jello. I think when tournament time comes the Bucks should be ready to take care of their opponents in a fashion that will probably be very impressive. ? ? ? The Division IV, 4-A conference seems to be constantly represented in a way that makes them very well known on the state-wide scene. Richmond County is now listed as the best team in the region and the state according to the most recent poll. The Raiders aTe the only local team listed in the state poll, but you can't get any better than number one. When all of the Division IV teams were in the old Southeastern 3-A conference. I thought it was the toughest conference in the state. If one considers the fact that these teams are actually new to 4-A competition, and they are still ranked high in the polls, that says a lot for the conference. ? ? ? Russell Davis had one of the best nights of his career Wednesday night in VPI's victory over Virginia in Richmond. Russell hit for 31 points. 21 of them coming in the second half. It's good to see a hometown boy do well, and in Russell's case, it is not ,, just in one game since he is among the top five in the nation in field goal percentage. ? * * ! It looks like it is going to be an all-out war (as usual) on the hardwood for the ACC teams this year. Being a East Carolina graduate. I will not attempt to pick a favorite as I don't really have one. I will say that ACC basketball has to be the most enjoyable way to spend the winter months. The action and rivalry factors are always present even if the first place team is playing the last. I share the opinion that any team can beat another on any given night or afternoon (whatever the case may be). The real treat comes when these teams meet at the end of the season for their annual tournament. I said before that I don't have a favorite, but I know who will win the conference title...probably the best team, of course. ? ? ? Upehurch's boys basketball lost their first game in two years last week, but I don't think they should feel too bad about it. Any team w ith that kind of record simply shows how much talent is on its way for competition later on. Coach Callendar should be congratulated and so should the whole athletic department at Upchurch along with the players. P.S. ... We can't forget the girls. It seems that Coach Scott is really falling right into the winning tradition. For the first year of competition, who could ask for anything more? They are undefeated. ? * ' * Don Bendell was by the office last week and he has recovered from his karate mishap in Ohio. It's good that he does not have that type of workout very often. Of course, it might he his opponent, who ends up in the hospital next time. Karate is like that tough. I guess even the experts have their good and bad davs. * * * Out of Bounds was w ritten before the Super Bowl Game and since Dallas has been mv favorite team since they were organized in l%(). 1 am happy to see them in the championship game. Though I'm not going to make any kind of prediction. 1 will say that I hope the score at the end of the game w ill be 24-14 (with a star on top).
