Suspect acquaintance of victim;

Victim of Wyoming hate
crime remembered
Amy Sheridan
assistant news editor
A 19-year-old female non-student reported being raped
in her residence on the 1400 block of 1st Street, an area
heavily populated by students, Sunday night.
The rape reportedly occurred at 10:38 p.m. The
alleged perpetrator was an acquaintance of the victim.
"The vast majority of sexual assaults involve people
that know each other said Tom Younce, Assistant
Director of the ECUPD. "It is very unusual to have a
stranger raping a young person
The victim immediately reported the rape to the
Greenville Police Department (GPD). She was then
taken to the Pitt Memorial Hospital emergency room,
where a rape kit was administered.
Police are currently interviewing witnesses who were
apparently within the residence that evening.
"We are still in the investigative point of this case
said Sgt. Richard Allsbrook, supervisor of Family
Services.
Allsbrook would not comment on whether other peo-
ple were present during the alleged sexual assault.
Charges have yet to be filed in the case. After the
GPD has finished investigating, the case will be pre-
sented to the Assistant District Attorney's office. The

light vigil Wednesday to remember
Matthew Shepard, the University of

Monday brought national attention to
anti-gay hate crimes.
"A 21 year old student was beaten to
death B-GLAD adviser Jeff Gersh
said. "It very well could have been here.

The vigil was held at 8 p.m. in front
of the Sonic Plaza. Senior Johnny
Holden, president of B-GLAD, Gersh,
Residence Hall Association president
Sherri Ingram, and Lynn Roder of
Counseling and Student Development
spoke at the vigil.
Holden spoke emotionally about
Shcpard's death and how it affected
him.
"I feel angry and betrayed by a part
of humanity Holden said. "A part that
is cold, cruel, without warmth, compas-
sion, and acceptance. Never forget,
never again
Gersh spoke about hate crimes and
hostile reactions some had toward
Shepard's death.
"A group has decided to boycott
Shepard's funeral, carrying placards
that say things such as 'Fag Matt 'Burn
in hell (and) 'No tears for queers
Gersh said. "(These are supposedly

ECU is considering whether it will
make use of the law by writing letters
to parents of students who violate drug
and alcohol laws. First the university
will go through a process to get feed-

should be done.

JASON ZlEBART
STAFF WRITER
The past few years have seen an
overall decline in the number of
students on academic probation at
ECU.
According to an Academic
Difficulty Report from the Office
of Undergraduate Studies, 355 stu-
dents were on academic probation
last fall. During the spring, that
number jumped to 751. The num-
ber of students presently on proba-
tion is 277.
The report also included factors
that students said contributed to
their academic difficulty. Some said
they had a lack of motivation.
Others said they had an inadequate
balance between extracurricular
activities and class work.
The 1997-1998 Undergraduate
Catalog lists academic warning, aca-
demic probation, and academic sus-
pension as three different types of
academic difficulty. Students with
one to seven credit hours and no
grade point average (GPA) are put
on probation. Students with 8 to 31
credit hours must have at least a
1.35 GPA to avoid probation.
Students with 32 to 63 hours must
have a 1.6 GPA, and those with 64
to 95 hours must have a 1.8 GPA;
Those with 96 or more hours must
maintain a 1.9 GPA or higher. If
students are attempting a second,
undergraduate degree, they havej
must have a 2.0 GPA.
Don Joyner, Assistant Dean in
the Office of Undergraduate
Studies, said that the definition ot
academic warning was changed this
semester. A student with less than;
32 credit hours used to be placed or
warning if his or her GPA was les$
than 1.75, and a student with 32 o(
more credit hours was placed or
warning if his or her GPA was less
than 2.0. Now a student with any
number of credit hours is placed on
warning if his or her GPA is less
than 2.0.
"A lot of people think their
GPAs are too low Joyner said.
Even with the higher standards,
fewer students are on academic
warning and probation than last
year. According to Joyner, there are
three main reasons that have conJ
tributed to this decline. The first
reason is that ECU is admitting stu-
dents with higher GPAs. Second,
students are focusing more on acad-
emics because many programs have
high GPA standards. The high

Wyoming student dies
after beating
! LARAMIE, Wyo. (AP) - A gay
" college student who was lured
" from a campus hangout, beaten
11 and lashed to a split-rail fence died
Monday, and the two young men
arrested in the attack now face
murder charges that could bring
the death penalty.
Matthew Shepard, 21, died at
Poudre Valley Hospital in Fort
" Collins, Colo while on life sup-
' port. His skull was so badly
' smashed that doctors could not
' perform surgery, hospital president
1 Rulon Stacey said.
The University of Wyoming
student had been in a coma since
bicyclists found him in near-freez-
ing temperatures Wednesday
evening. They at first mistook him
' for a scarecrow.
' Russell Arthur Henderson, 21,
' and Aaron James McKinney, 22,
were originally charged with
attempted murder, kidnapping and
aggravated robbery, and jailed on
$100,000 bail each.
Police said that with Shepard's
death, the charges against them
will be upgraded to first-degree
murder, which carries a possible
death sentence.
Their girlfriends - Chasity Vera
Paslcy, 20, and Kristen Leann
Price, 18 - were charged with being
accessories after the fact. Police
said the women helped dump
bloody clothing and initially lied
about their whereabouts.
Police said that robbery was the
main motive but that Shepard
apparently was chosen in part
because he was gay. The 5-foot-2,
105-pound Shepard had been beat-
en twice in recent months, attacks
he attributed to his homosexuality.
In a statement issued by the
hospital, Shepard's mother, Judy
Shepard, urged parents to hug their
children and enjoy every day with
them.
"He came into the world prema-
ture and left the world premature
and they are most grateful for the
time they had to spend with
Matthew the hospital president
said.
Of the 41 states that have hate-
crime laws, 21 states specifically
cover offenses motivated by the
victim's sexual orientation. Efforts
to pass a hate-crime law in
Wyoming have failed several
times.
On Monday, the giant rainbow
flag that symbolizes the gay move-
ment was lowered to half staff in
San Francisco's Castro District.
College students rallied in down-
town Denver to remember
Shepard and denounce violence.
And in Laramie, where the long-
planned Gay Awareness Week
began, some students wore yellow
and green armbands to send a mes-
sage of peace.
"It's a great loss to everyone,
whether they knew him or not. He
was an incredible individual said
Jim Osborn, a friend of Shepard's
and chairman of Lesbian Gay
Bisexual and Transgendered
Association, a University of
Wyoming student group.
Police said the two men lured
Shepard out of the Fireside bar late
Tuesday or early Wednesday by
telling him they were gay. The
three of them got in McKinney's

standards of the programs also
affect the type of students that
apply to ECU.
"The academic culture of the
university is changing Joyner
said.
Finally, workshops are provid-
ed for students that are on warning
or probation. They offer advice on
subjects such as becoming a suc-
cessful student, time manage-
ment, note-taking skills, and acad-
emic motivation. They are held
throughout the semester at either
the Academic Support Center at
Brewster B-103 or the Center for
Counseling and Student
Development at 316 Wright.
"I see the students coming and
going to the workshops said
Shawn Coward, a tutor in the
Academic Support Center. "The
workshops are not as popular as
they should be, but it gets them
on the right start before they ruin
their college career
Students placed on probation
are required to attend one of these
workshops. They will stay on pro-
bation for the remainder of the
semester and then be placed on
warning or be considered in good
standing depending on their
GPAs. Students on warning are
encouraged to attend one of the
workshops, but are not required.

said. "The image of African-
Americans is that they only get
arrested, but there are many
African-Americans in the judicial
system such as judges, sheriffs,
and prison guards
Freshman Marilyn Ward, a
criminal justice major, became a
member of the NABCJ at the con-
ference and called it a very reward-
ing experience. Ward felt that
future conferences should be
attended by all criminal justice
students.
"It was a rewarding experience
to meet so many people in the
field, and there are so many differ-
ent options in the criminal justice
field Ward said.
The national chapter and the
North Carolina state chapter met
together from Wednesday through
Saturday morning at NC Central
University. The NABCJ was start-
ed in 1973 at the University of
Alabama and now has more than
4,000 members. The conference
was open to any interested parties.
The NABCJ prides itself on
being a multiracial and nonparti-
san association of criminal justice
professionals and community
leaders who are dedicated to
improving the administration of
justice. The North Carolina
Chapter has over 250 active mem-
bers. Membership and participa-
tion in NABCJ activities are open
to all, irrespective of race, creed or
national origin.
Drinking
continued from page 2
drinking at universities around the
country, according to Antieau.
Between August 1997 and
August 1998, cases involving
underage drinking and ECU stu-
dents reached 676. The new law
will make it legal for ECU to send
letters home to parents whether
the student is on or off campus, no
matter what type of police force
catches the offense.
"Violations occur from many
different areas of the school's alco-
hol laws Antieau said. "Arrests
fall into categories from DUIs,
under-age drinking in dormitories,
to tailgating offenses. Most of the
violations occur, however, when
under-age students attempt to buy
liquor at ABC stores
An 18-year-old freshman, who
asked not to be identified, was
fined Saturday after being caught
drinking at the Homecoming
game. He feels that he should not
have to answer to his parents if he
does not live with them.
"I don't live at home, and I pay
my own bills" he said. "It was my
problem, not my parents. They
shouldn't be involved in this
Sgt. LaFrance Davis of the
ECU Police Department said she
understands where the students
are coming from and believes that
people must weigh the pros and
cons of the law.
"Many would say that the law
infringes on the privacy of the stu-
dent, but I believe that we may
see a decrease in the number of
cases of underage drinking if the
law is passed Davis said.
"Students don't want their parents
I o
know about their drinking habits if
II can
be prevented
Greenville police attorney Blair
Carr also feels that the new rule
might lead to a decrease in student
drinking.
Rape
continued from page 1
Assistant District Attorney will
make a decision on whether to
bring charges against the suspect.
In February, a Cotten Hall resi-
dent reported being raped in her
dorm room by a stranger. On Sep.
22, a freshman reported being
raped in the Garrett Hall residence
of an acquaintance. In February, a
21-year-old woman claimed she
was raped in the Sigma Phi
Epsilon back house, but charges
were dropped due to lack of evi-
dence.
The Cotten and Garrett Hall
rapes are still under investigation.
However, Younce said that he
hopes the Garrett Hall investiga-
tion will be cleared up by the end
of next week.
Both the ECUPD and the GPD
stress prevention and education as
the safest defenses against rape.
"The ECU Police Department
focuses on prevention and the
ECUPD also has a full time pre-
vention officer who works with
other campus organizations on the
prevention of sexual assault
Younce said.

Tuesday we learned of a shocking murder. Two young men attacked a gay University of
Wyoming student. The men beat him, tied him to a fence and left him for dead in near-
freezing temperatures. He died in the hospital because his skull was too badly crushed for
surgery.
Although robbery was the purported motive for the attack, the fact that the victim had
already been beaten twice in recent months places the crime well within the bounds of a
hate crime.
But hate crime isn't always as violent or as blatant. Homosexuals are harassed in less
obvious ways every day on campus, made to feel inferior because of their sexual
orientation while others of us take our sexual freedom for granted.
Minority students also fight an uphill battle every day against the glares, whispers and
outright racial slurs they endure from their fellow students.
Women are not only raped, but sexually harassed and subjected to inferior treatment as
well, simply because of their gender.
Although we all enjoy the freedom of thought, which includes the right to hate anyone
without cause, our freedoms end when they do harm to others physically or
psychologically. We need to learn how to keep our thoughts to ourselves and to treat
everyone as equals if we expect the same respect from others.
Hate crimes come in all sizes, from the shortchanging of a woman by a man who does
repairs on her car to the lynching of an African-American man by the Ku Klux Klan, but all
hate crimes hurt the individual and the community.
Individuals have a right to feel safe in their community, especially one as diverse as a
college campus. The world is a cruel place, but there should be one place where we can
feel safe to be ourselves.
We all live together and share a common goal: the betterment of ourselves through
education and broader horizons. So why is it so hard for us to accept each other's
differences? If we can't begin to learn from and support each other now, when can we?

Reader's romance savvy tested
Just remember to be
yourself, unless it's you
that spits fingernails
across the room. In any
case, enjoy the wonderful
world of LOVE!
I have always been pretty lucky on
the love scene. Not really always.
I have had just as many hardships
as the next guy, but the good far
outweigh the bad, I assure you.
You don't know what love is until
you go through an "initiation" for
lack of a better word. You need to
have many relationships that don't
work out so that you can base the
next one on that. Take, for
example, the last girl you dated
bit her fingernails and spit them
across the room, and that didn't
exactly turn you on. Then, the
next girl you are interested in
should be able to answer "no" to
the question, "if we were eating at
a restaurant and we were waiting
for our food to come out, would
you sit there and bite your nails
and spit them across the room?"
That is first date material. I
believe that the first date should
be the date where you get
everything out in the open such as:
1. You know, I have a tattoo of
the Righteous Brothers on the
back of my knee.
2. I didn't think I was fully
rehabilitated. I guess they just
needed the bed.
3. I have not eaten in six
weeks.
4. I'm a bed-wetter.
You get the idea. The first date
should pretty much give some sort
of idea as to how you are going to
act around each other. During the
next date, if all goes well, you
should hear things like this:
1, I went to the Bahamas once.
2. You mean you like cats too?
3, This pizza is very greasy.
4. Are you saying that you have
a car too?
And so on, and so on. At any
case, the third date should be
pretty routine, as if you have been
friends for years. This is when the
conversation moves along to
things as:
1. I rented Congo last night.
2. How was it?
3. Well, I didn't expect quite so
many apes.
Are you starting to get it? Here
is a test for you to take.
Remember what we have learned.
1. Which of the following
might you hear on a first date?
a. I went fishing yesterday.
b. I went fishing last week.
c. I plan to go fishing tomorrow.
d. I wish I had a few less ears.
2 Which of the following
would you expect to hear on the
second date?
a. If only there were more
giraffes in the world.
b. The aliens said that they
were not interested in my body,
but I know different.
c. If I owned a bar, I wouldn't
allow bullfrogs to drink more than
one Fuzzy Navel.
d. I have a boat.
3 Ditto for the third date.
a. If only there were less
giraffes in the world.
b. I have a great body, and the
aliens would agree with me.
c. I don't think there should be
a drinking age for bullfrogs.
d. I watched the marathon of
"Love Boat" last night.
4 How would you break up
with someone?
a. Fake a heart attack at their
birthday party.
b. Fake a stroke a Christmas.
c. Fake going onto labor during
a movie (girls only hopefully).
d. Say "I don't think this is
working out
e. Both a and c.
f. None of these.
g. All of these.
5 Two trains, A and B, are
traveling at the same speed and
going in the same direction.
Which train will arrive first?
a. A
b. B
c. Who knows?
d. Who cares?
Now tally up your scores by
which: A-l point, B-2 points, C-3
points, and so forth. The higher
your score, then the more you will
score (if you know what I mean). I
hope I have cleared up a few
things for you. Just remember to
be yourself, unless it's you that
spits fingernails across the room.
In any case, enjoy the wonderfui
world of LOVE!
Hate crime laws create a
penalty for holding
unorthodox, though legal,
opinions. But when these laws
fail to stop hate crimes, which
they will, the next logical step
is to outlaw those opinions.
B-GLAD (Biscxuals, Gays,
Lesbians and Allies tor Diversity)
held a candlelight vigil October 14
to honor Matthew Shepard.
Shepard was an openly gay
student at the Universiu of
Wyoming who was cruelly beaten
to death recently. While it has not
yet been proven, it appears that
this murder was motivated by
irrational hatred of his sexual
orientation.
But the other reason for B-
GLAD's vigil raises some serious
questions that should be carefully
examined. According to Rich
Elkins, web and e-mail
coordinator for the group, the
gathering was also "to draw
attention to hate crimes, their
victims and the need for hate
crimes legislation
Congress is , currently
considering the Hate Crimes
Prevention Act. This bill, co-
sponsored by Sen. Ted Kennedy
(D-Mass.) and Sen. Aden Specter
(R-Penn.), and supported by the
president, would make it easier for
federal law enforcement to
intervene in local affairs. It would
also expand the list of protected
classes to include sexual
orientation, gender and disability.
Hate crime laws increase the
penalty for a crime based upon its
motivation, so criminals who
assault or murder because of a
hatred for a group could receive
extra time in prison. While this
seems fair and perhaps even a
good idea, there are several
reasons for concern.
First, on a purely practical level,
these laws are almost completely
symbolic. The Hate Crimes
Prevention Act, despite its name,
will not prevent anything.
Moreover, almost no one would
receive any extra punishment. For
example, in 19 a total of 27
people received extra time for
violating hate crime laws.
Hate crimes are a problem in
America. But, they are only a tiny
blip on our overall crime problem.
In 1995, there were 1.3 million
interracial crimes (where victim
and perpetrator were different
races). The same year, the FBI
recorded only 4,831 racial hate
crimes, or less than one-half of one
percent of all interracial crimes.
Remember, also, that most crime
occurs intraracially.
But symbols can be important.
The mere fact that these laws
accomplish almost nothing is not a
sufficient reason not to pass them.
The problem is that they create an
even greater threat than the
crimes that they seek to punish.
I late crime laws create a
penalty for holding unorthodox,
though legal, opinions. But when
these laws fail to stop hate crimes,
which they will, the next logical
step is to outlaw those opinions.
Think that this can't happen? It
is already beginning. According to
the Alberta Report, Sylvia
MacEachern was investigated for
more than two months by the
Ottawa hate crimes unit after
criticizing a proposed AIDS
curriculum for Canadian Catholic-
schools on an Ottawa radio station.
This is the real danger, not a
few thousand heinous acts
committed by individuals. Once it
becomes permissible for
authorities to persecute and
prosecute for beliefs, the ones
most in danger are minorities.
Freedom of speech and thought
are the only defense they have
against the tyranny of the majority,
yet it is these very groups that are
seeking to throw away this
defense.
Not only are these laws
dangerous, they are also
unnecessary. All crimes, regardless
of motivation, need to be
prosecuted. Shepard would not
have suffered any less, or be any
less dead, if his killers had
murdered him for some other
reason. These murderers need to
be executed because of what they
did, not why they did it.
President Clinton came within
16 words of being exactly right in a
letter that supported the Hate
Crimes Prevention Act, which he
sent to congressional leaders this
summer. In it he said "I hope that
we can join together to reaffirm
that no American should be
subject to violence on account of
his or her race, color, national
origin, religion, sexual orientation,
gender or disability Read that .
sentence again, stopping at the
word violence. That should be the
message that we send.
So I encourage B-GLAD and
everyone else to show support for
all victims of crime. But we should
not support this solution. The
price is just too high.

Ridicule of Greek system unwarranted
"When power corrupts, poetry cleanses
John F. Kennedy
35ifa U.S. President
is interesting that the very
people who complain about the
Greek system have never had
any first-hand knowledge or
experience with it. Why does it
bother these people, who have
no affiliation with it, so much?
This column is in response to the
people who are still fascinated with
bashing the Greek system and its
participants. There was a cartoon
on the editorial page of the East
Carolinian last Thursday that
depicted a fraternity pledge
cleaning up the lawn and thinking
to himself, "This will make me a
better person someday; this will
make me a better person
someday while a fraternity
brother screams, "hurry up and get
that lawn clean, pledge
Why is there an incessant need
to ridicule the Greek system? The
very individuals who do so have no
inkling of what the Greek system
is, what it stands for, or the way in
which it is organized. These
ridiculers base their biases and
judgments on what they have
heard and what they have seen on
television, movies and after-school
specials. Therefore, their
defamatory remarks and portrayals
are not accurate but are rather
convoluted and naive.
If the Greek system were so
appalling, it would not thrive the
way it does on campuses around
the country. Why would an
organization that supposedly
invades people's individualism and
self-respect maintain a following
that ranks it as one of the largest
(and most structured) organizations
on campus?
It is interesting that the very
people who complain about the
Greek system have never had any
first-hand knowledge or
experience with it. Why does it
bother these people, who have no
affiliation with it, so much? No one
makes anyone join a fraternity or
sorority. It is a matter of personal
choice made by each individual.
Before and after membership is
attained, no one is bound to it, and
his or her status is not based on a
"like it or leave it" basis. It is also
interesting that the people who
scrutinize fraternity and sorority
organizations and members do so
in the name of "rights and
individualism That makes no
sense and its senselessness and
incoherence is embodied in the
fact that those who attack Greeks
are in fact attacking people's
individual rights to organize,
assemble and affiliate with
organizations of his or her choice.
Now who is really being intrusive
and simple minded here?
I could list statistics a mile long
citing the benefits of the Greek
system and Greek life, i.e.
community service, higher grade
point averages, career and
leadership opportunities, etc but
that is really not the point. The
point is that there is no reason or
urgent need of any kind to
constantly degrade fraternities and
sorortties. These people have a
right to do what they wish to enrich
their college experience the way
that they see fit. To continue to
ridicule these people is petty,
unimpressive and
counterproductive. Plus, it is just
getting old. There arc so many
important and worthy causes out
there. College (and life) is too
short to hold hostility towards
something that is not going away.

-Recently, eight members of the
ECU faculty received the
Chancellor's Award for Excellence
during a reception at Mendenhall
Student Center.
This award, which has been
given annually since 19, was pre-
sented by Chancellor Eakin to rec-
ognize staff members in various cat-
egories.
The winners were given a cer-
tificate of recognition, a purple
plaque, and sixteen extra hours of
annual leave.
This award, developed by the
ECU Department of Human
Resources, is given to staff mem-
bers for various categories. In the
area of devotion to duty, Carolyn
Miller, Thurman Ramsey, Rudy
Shepard, Mail Services supervisor,
and Cynthia Smith, political sci-
ence office assistant, received
appreciation from the chancellor.
"I had won a business award
which is given quarterly Shepard
said. "Because of that, I was nomi-
nated in the area of devotion to
duty
Other winners were nominated
by their department chairs.
"My department chair and one
other faculty member recommend-
ed me Smith said.
In the human relations category,
Carolina Moreno and June Urback
won.
"My supervisor wrote a letter to
the award committee about my
work in this department and about
the volunteer work that I do out-
side the university said Moreno,
an x-ray technician in radiation
oncology in the School of
Medicine.
Moreno has also won the
Governor's Award for his distinc-
tion in human relations.
"I was nominated last year, but
didn't win said Urback, secretary
in the Department of Allied Health
Sciences. "I didn't even know that
I had been nominated again
The remaining awards were
given to Nancy Mize for public ser-
vice and Amy Grimes for safety and
heroism.
"I had witnessed a lady being
attacked in the parking lot of Pitt

later testified and the criminal
eventually pleaded guilty
The Chancellor's Award for
Excellence was developed by Greg
Miller of Human Resources. Miller
presented the idea to Chancellor
Eakin and it was warmly received.
"The chancellor wanted every-
one to feel like a winner Miller
said. 'That is why he recognizes
the winners, as well as the nomi-
nees, during the award ceremony
The winners were encouraged
to invite their fellow workers to the
reception. During the ceremony,
Chancellor Eakin recognized all
the nominees.
Eakin also spoke about the win-
ners and read portions of the letters
that had been sent by their depart-
ment chairs and reviewed by the
committee.
The committee overlooking the
award is part of the Praise
Committee in Faculty
Development. It is an eight person
review committee that receives the
nominations which are made dur-
ing the spring. This year, most win-
ners found out on August 1 through

ECU on quest for fifth
straigfit victory
Travis Barkley
senior writer
ECU will put its four game winning
streak on the line this Saturday when
the Pirates travel to Legion Field to
take on the University of Alabama,
who enters the game with a 3-2
record. Last week the Crimson Tide
defeated Ole Miss 20-17 in overtime.
Alabama's only losses have come against
Florida and Arkansas.
After facing wishbone teams for the
last three games, the Pirates will finally
see a more traditional attack this week.
Head coach Steve Logan says he just
hopes his team remembers how to play
against a conventional offense.
"We're going to be a little bit out of
our element due to the fact that we've
played three wishbone teams in a row
Logan said. "We're going to get spread
out all over the field and have to see if
we can remember how to line up, liter-
ally. So we've got a tall order against us
Logan said that unlike most of
ECU's previous opponents, Alabama
has a variety of offensive and defensive
packages.
"They've gotten themselves into
some very multiple schemes on both
sides of the ball Logan said. "They've
got a one-back, two-back, no-back
y. offense, shotgun. The defense is very
multiple, a lot of man coverage, very
aggressive. I'd compare them favorably
to Virginia Tech
Tech blasted ECU 38-3 in the season
opener. Logan feels that
Alabama may have even
more team speed than the
Hokies.
"They're faster than
Virginia Tech in my opinion,
particularly on offense
Logan said. "The tailback
they've got is a real deal guy.
He'll be the best back we've
seen this year
That tailback, junior
Shaun Alexander, leads the
Crimson tide in rushing with
551 yards, averaging 5.2
yards per carry. Alexander
has scored nine touchdowns,
eight rushing and one receiv-
ing to lead the team in scor-
ing.
Much like ECU,
Alabama uses two quarterbacks,
senior J.D. Phillips and freshman Andrew
Zow. Zow, the more athletic of the two, is
slated to start against the Pirates.
"They're a little more simplistic on
offense with the freshman Logan said.
"When the senior is in there they run a lot
more stuff
Senior nose quard Travis Darden says
developing a strong pass rush will be impor-
tant, regardless of who the quarterback is.
"We haven't been against an offense yet
that throws a whole lot Darden said.
"They just kind of spread you out, so we've
got to get a good pass rush up front. The
guys are aware of that and we're going to
see if we can get that accomplished
Logan said the teams that have had suc-
cess against Alabama have gone right at
them.
"The two teams that hurt them ran right
at them, which tends to negate some of the
speed they have Logan said. "They
haven't dealt with any option whatsoever.
Some of our option schemes will concern
them and hopefully slow down some of
their inside-out pursuit that they've got
Starting right tackle Samein Jones said
ECU's depth on the offensive line may
wear down the Alabama defense.
"We substitute a lot of offensive linemen
throughout the game Jones said. "We
were fresh and able to wear out UAB last
Saturday. I think it will be a key for this
week also

David Garrard left high school as a highly regarded and promis
ing quarterback prospect and came to ECU to play ball with
the Pirates. He worked hard in spring practice and has lived up
to all his expectations so far this season.
This fall Garrard has played beyond his years, providing
ECU's football program with much needed and often explo-
sive offensive skills.
ECU's coaches did not hesitate to redshirt Garrard when he
joined the Pirates in 1997 as a 6'3" freshman from Southern
Durham High School. Starting 40 games for Southern
Durham, where he amassed for 9,023 yards of total offense and
accounted for 113 career touchdowns, Garrard was listed
among North Carolina's top 25 prospects following his senior
season.
"I knew once 1 came to East Carolina that I would be red-
shirted. It was hard at first, but I got used to it so it was all
right Garrard said.
Being red-shirted gave Garrard a chance to get more com-
fortable with the role of a college quarterback.
"I got to go to practice, learn the plays, go to meetings and
get a feel for the college atmosphere. So I think it helped me a
lot for this year Garrard said.
It wasn't until last spring that Garrard began to raise the eye-
brows of many ECU football fans. In the final scrimmage of'98
spring drills, Garrard completed 6 of 10 passes for 164 yards.
He also rushed for 56 yards on 8 attempts.
"I thought I did pretty well for a freshman. I thought I was
reading my keys, looking at the coverageetting the
receivers. I thought I did pretty good Canard said.
This summer Garrard worked hard to make himself a more
complete quarterback.
"I did a lot of off-field running to get in be3i
ter shape so I could be more mobile in the
pocket. I was also going in film so I could
read my keys a little better. I just did
some extra things for this season
Garrard said.

front of a crowd of over 83,000 which would
be the fifth largest crowd to see a game in
ECU history. Neither Logan nor the players
are overly concerned about playing in front
of such a large crowd.
"South Carolina is the same type thing-
80,000 people going crazy Logan said.
"These kids have been there, done that. I
think that our players will respond favor-
ably
Darden said you can't get intimidated

be a packed house and that's all fine. We're
just going to go with the scheme the coach-
es give us and try to play ball
Jones supported Darden's comments,
saying that it doesn't matter who ECU
plays, they just have to execute on game
day.
"Coach Shank (Steve Shankweiler,
offensive line coach) has told us that we
don't play opponents, we play the game of
football Jones said. "All we can do is go
out and execute our game plan
"We'll just have to go out and turn it up
a notch in practice this week Jones said.

ly everything will work out

The ECU men's and women's swim teams
open their seasons today at the Purple and
Gold meet.
The Purple and Gold meet i� an dual
meet between the teams. The men divide
up evenly and swim against each other.
The same is done with the women's team.
"The Purple & Gold meet tells us as a
coaching staff where the teams are after
almost 10 weeks of training. We start our
strength and conditioning program the
moment the swimmers come back for
school. We swim over 50,000 yds a week,
which is over 12,050 laps head coach
Rick Kobe said. "With the teams not being
at top shape until sometime in January, we
use this meet as a gauge as to where we
want to be by then
i The meet also serves as a means of set-
ting personal goals for many of the swim-
mers.
"This meet gives us feed back as to
where our training is at this point. It gives
me personally a marker as to where I want
to be in the season senior men's swim-
mer Richard Chen said.
"We use the results as an outlook for our
goals on the up-coming season senior
women's swimmer Niki Kneel said.
As usual, one of the primary goals for
the team this season is to come out on top
within the conference.
"Our goals for the season, as they are
every year, are to have an undefeated sea-
son and to win the CAA conference meet
Kobe said. "We have won conference
before but have not been able to have the
undefeated season to go along with it
The men's team finished in third last
season, and looks to rebound from that
placing.
The women's team has won three of
the last four CAA titles with a second placed
finish last year to UNC-Wilmington.
"Our biggest rivalry is UNC- j
Wilmington senior women's swimmer ;
Allison Holland said. "We want to get the
championship back after coming in sec-
ond to them last year
Kobe feels that the year's team has the
potential to reach the goals that have been
set.
"This girls squad should be the best in
school history Kobe said. "We have the
most depth in the distance freestyle and

Women's soccer falls to top-ranked team
Tribe shuts Pirates out in
last 10 minutes of play
Tracy Hairr
senior writer
On Tuesday, the ECU women's soccer
team lost its third conference game to
nationally ranked William and Mary. The
Pirates are now 7-4-1 on the season and 2-
3 in CAA play.
There was an obvious amount of ten-
sion during the first half of the game with
the teams' goalkeepers equally on the
defense from the players' attempted shots.
"William and Mary is an excellent team,
one of the top ten in the nation head
coach Neil Roberts said. "We were playing
under a lot of pressure
I
The Pirates eventually out-
shot the Tribe 8-7 after 45 min-
utes. In the second half, howev-
er, a corner kick from William
and Mary's Missy Wycinsky,
currently ranked second in the
nation for scoring, eluded the
Pirate defense and put the
Tribe ahead 1-0 in the 80th
minute. Nine minutes later,
Tribe member Janet Sury
scored another goal, and
though ECU made five more
potential shots, the shutout
was determined.
'The game proved to be a
big test for us, and one that I certainly
don't think we failed Roberts said. "We
just learned a great deal about things to do
on our attacking end in future games
With three more games against CAA
contenders scheduled throughout the rest

team intends to focus
on improvement.

The East Carolinian
Golf team finishes fourth
at Mocs Fall Invitational
Expectations cut short
according to coach
Stephen Schiamm
seniob writer
The ECU men's golf team finished
a disappointing fourth at the Mocs
Fall Invitational in Chattanooga,
Tenn. on Tuesday. The Pirates had
high scores in the first round and
shot well in the later rounds but
never managed to contend for the
top spot.
"I was disappointed that we did-
n't have a shot at winning head
golf coach Kevin Williams said.
"We had a bad first round and that
took us out of it
The Pirates' final team score,
878put them in a tie for fourth
with Central Alabama and behind
Coastal Carolina, Georgia Southern
and Chattanooga.
"I think we are similar in talent
with Coastal Carolina, Georgia
Southern and Chattanooga, but
after the first round we just didn't
have a chance Williams said. "We
can't keep shooting ourselves in
the foot. We've got to get more
solid starts
Despite the high early scores,
Williams was pleased with the
strong play of his freshmen. The
Pirates were led by freshman
Micheal Chad Webb. Webb shot a
74 in the first round and followed it
up with 71 in the next two rounds
to finish three-over-par and in a tie
for 15th overall. Fellow freshman
Frank Adams finished four-over-
par and 19th overall.
"I was pleased with our fresh-
men. Frank Adams and Micheal
Chad Webb were solid Williams
said. "Their input was invaluable
The strong play of the Pirate
freshmen lightened the load car-
ried by junior and perennial team
leader Marc Miller. Miller finished
in a tie for 24th overall with an
eight-over-par 221.
"Marc Miller didn't play well. It
used to be that when Marc was bad
we were really bad. Our two fresh-
men) are a lot like Marc. Micheal
Chad Webb has got the lowest
average on the team and Frank
Adams' average would be lower if
it weren't for his bad first tourna-
ment. Now, we can take the hit
when Marc doesn't play well
Williams said.
The Pirates' troubles on
Tuesday were due to the slow start
and a lack of production from the
fifth spot. The Pirates' first four
competitors, Miller, Webb, Adams
and Shane Robinson have carried
the team thus far. The fifth spot
has been the weak link.
"I'm proud of the top four guys
we've got. We've just got to find
that fifth guy. We haven't counted a
fifth score all year. We've got a
whole on our team that we've got
to fill. We need someone to step
forward and give a contribution
from the fifth spot Williams said.

The East Carolinian
Garrard
continued from page 8
u
This season, the time spent
J watching from the sidelines and the
hard work in practice and over the
summer are finally paying off.
Garrard has appeared in all of
ECU's five games this year. Each
time, however, he has come in off
ithe bench.
�' "It's been a fairly solid perfor-
mance for a freshman head foot-
ball coach Steve Logan said. "He's
done some nice things. But he's not
anywhere near where he needs to
be to get 70 snaps a game or play a
whole college football game
According to Logan, Garrard is
evolving into a more complete
quarterback.
"He's progressing nicely. He
used to get stuck on one receiver
visually and now he's moving his
eyes and finds the second and third
receivers Logan said.
The process of molding Garrard
into a more complete quarterback is
not yet concluded.
"It seems like with any young
quarterback, you get a certain num-
ber of snaps and you begin to lose
your concentration. He has to get to
the point where he can have 60 or
; 70 snaps and does not lose concen-
tration Logan said. "He's pro-
gressing and he's got some nice
skills. It's nice to see him develop-
ing. It's a good process
Garrard made his first appear-
ance at Dowdy-Ficklcn this year
against the University of
Tennessee-Chattanooga. In that
game he provided the crowd with
the first of many exhibitions of his
explosive offensive talent. His 40-
yard touchdown pass to LaMont
Chappcl electrified the ECU fans
and started the onslaught that
would result in ECU's 31-0 thrash-
ing of the Mocs.
"It was a bootleg and I came off
and I had a little pressure so I tried
to scrape him. He went around me
and he kind of got lost and I saw
LaMont Chappel come out of the
back end real quick. I knew I had a
quick shot to get it to him and I just
put it up there and it just fell right
into his hands Garrard said.
After putting up quality num-
bers against Ohio, Garrard came in
late to preserve ECU's win over
Army.
Saturday, after Ernest Tinnin
threw two early interceptions
against UAB, Logan turned to
Garrard to jump start the Pirate
offense. Garrard did not disappoint
his coach, as he had possibly his
greatest game yet as a Pirate. He
connected on two touchdown pass-
es and threw for a career high 189
yards in guiding the Pirates to a .26-
7 win over the Blazers.
Garrard has already put his name
in the future of the quarterback
position at ECU, a future he hopes
will come soon.
"I'm really just trying to improve
my performance and get ready for
the years to come Garrard said.
