Md - "I oreler strength to play up front with differen BALTIMORE. Md - "I prefer coming in the game as a reserve rather than starting because I get a chance to size up the opposition and see what they're doing before going in," Pat Edwards said, in discussing his recent performance in Morgan Slate Colleges seven-game surge on the road. Edwards, a 6-t, ISOpound sophomore, came of age in (he Bears' come-from-hehind 76-73 win over Oakland (Mich.) University in the opening round ol the Shaw Holiday Calssic m Detroit. He popped off the bench to push in '23 points, exploding for 18 of them in the second half He's been going strong every since. A versatile performer. Ed wards. a Houston.Texas native, plays both the front and back court positions, having the strength to play up the 6-8 and 6-9 musclemen and the agility to perform in the backcourt. He is an exception- allv quick guy for his size and has an excellent move toward the hoop when driving, his coach, Nat Frazier, says. When querried about his new .darting status, Pal said, "We w ere down by 10 at the half and coach (Frazier) was telling us w hat we had to do in the second h.ilf to win. I just made up my mind that they were going to liave to chain me down to stop me Then they just began to fall in ' he added as he happily recalled his big night in Detroit. "I prefer playing guard because I can use my improved repertoire of shots. In high school I just had a jump shot but I w alched Chet Davis play and I tried to perfect as many ferent shots as I could." Edwards has a habit of comparing himself with other people who have accomplished outstanding feats. He tries to figure out what made them successful, and then attempts to follow the same pattern. "I watched my high school team play for the championship and lose. That day I decided to go out for the team and I asked my friend (MikeStreety) who is aiso a member of the Morgan team to come out with me, " related Edwards. Edwards played junior varsi ty basketball as a junior and then averaged 19 points a game as a senior He was enticed to come to Morgan by the Bears' assistant football coach, Jim Phillips, who was also graduat ed from Kashmere High in Houston. Streely, a 6-6 soph, accom panied Edwards to Morgan and has also been impressive in the early going. "Since I broke into the starting lineup, everybody is playing a lot harder in practice, realizing the same thing can happen to them. "Sure 1 enjoy .rtarting but it's not everything. I just want to come into the game when I’m needed most " Pat doesn't have any special personal goals in basketball but he would like to play on a championship team. After fin ishing college he would like to go into business with Strecty.

McClain, supervisor of the Handicapped Program, one of the key goafs of the basketball game is to promote wheelchair and other types of recreation programs for the handicapped in Wake and other counties. "There are many kinds of recreation programs for the handicapped that can be made available if we can obtain the funds and support of the general public." she said. "If sufficient interest is generated by this event, possibly a wheelchair basketball team could be organized in the Raleigh area similar to the one in Charlotte which has been so successful."
