Health Services
By Mary Phelan
Staff Writer
Whether students are suffer-
ing from a cold, trying to prevent a
breakdown or anticipating a new
baby, the Student Health Center
offers assistance and advice with a
price tag far lower than many people
pay outside the university.
"Our goal is to provide the
best health care available for he
lowestcost'saidKayVannortwick,
director of ECU Student Health
Services. "We also want to provide
diversity in our services we want
students to come in here for other
thansimple problems she added.
So what exactly does Student
Health treat? Anything from emo-
tional problems and common non-
emergency illnesses to pregnancy
testing and allergy shots.
Most health care for students
is free of charge. Vannortwick ex-
plained that students are only
charged in order to cover the
university's cost of the service they
are receiving; no profit is made. Fl u
shots and X-rays would run a stu-
dent $5 - $15 dollars at the health
center, whereas in a normal doctor's
office such services could cost two
or three times as much.
Medical costs included in tu-
ition are presently $130 dollars.
Vannortwick explained that the
money mainly pays for personnel
costs. In comparison to other UNC
schools, ECU's medical costs fall
within the median.
Students at North Carolina
State University pay $126 in medi-
cal fees, while UNC-Chapel Hill
students pay $222.
ECU senior Deborah Booth
feels Student Health "does a won-
derful job providing ECU students
with the services they need
u
"As for having to pay for pre-
scriptions, it doesn't really please
me, but i t's cheaper than drug store

dents are not aware that they can
use Urgent Care when needed,
however.
"I wasn't aware of how the
Urgent Care system worked; there-
fore, I wasn't able to take advan-
tage of it when I needed it said
freshman Katherine Budrow.
Many times students who
call in are not sure if they need
Urgent Care or a regular appoint-
ment, explained Willette Darder,
appointment operator.
She also said that with only
one operator, it is difficult for stu-
dents to get through, because the
line is often busy. Now another
operator and phone line have been
added, as well as another nurse.
Vannortwick explained that
when problems arise, the center's
staff tries to find quick solutions,
and when they see that there is a
need for something, they will try to
meet that need as best as they can.
Jolene Jemagan, nurse practi-
tioner and clinical coordinator, feels
tha t having a nurse on a phone line
was a very positive addition to the
center.
"Any thing that helps facili-
ta te students moving through the
system more quickly is a good
thing she said.
Many problems still exist
within the Student Health Ser-
vices system, however, accord-
ing to some students.
"Every time I try to get an
appointment there is never any-
thing availablesaid freshman
Katherine Budrow. "Last week I
had to go to a private practice
doctor in Greenville and pay $65
dollars to get help, because I
couldn't be seen at Student
Health
The problem of getting stu-
dents through the system quickly
does not arise from lack of staff
members, Vannortwick said.

nal medicine doctor, one pedia-

ECU PD protects campus
Medical student
receives fellowship
By Tammy Carter
Staff Writer
Medical student Maria J.
Small is the first ECU student to
receive a fellowship from the Fel-
lowship Program in Academic
Medicine for Minority Students,
sponsored by Bristol-Myers Squibb
Company. In her fourth year of
medical school, Small learned a lot
from the program and encourages
other medical students to apply
for the grant.
The Commonwealth Fund,
a national philanthropy, estab-
lished the Fellowship Program in
Academic Medicine for Minority
Students in 1983 to encourage
gifted minorities to prepare for
careers in academic medicine and
biomedical research. Bristol-Myers
Squibb Company has given close
to$l million since 1990. Thisyear's
$350,000 grant funds 35 fellow-
ships of $6,000 each and sponsors
the scientific symposium.
The Fellowship Program
tries to increase the number of Af-
rican-Americans, Mexican-Ameri-
cans, mainland Puerto Ricans and
Native Americans on the United
States' medical school faculties and
in biomedical research laborato-
ries. Over 200 minority students
have participated in the program.
Small said that students in-
terested in the fellowship must
apply during November of the year
prior to the year they do their re-
search. They must submit a pro-
posal expressing interest in their
given project by January, and ac-
tually begin their research during
May or June.
Mid-way through the
projects, fellows must prepare an
abstract of their findings and the
nature of their work. Finally, they
present their research during a
symposium held the following year
for fellows and their mentors.
"The experience was invalu-
able Small said. "It was scary
initially, but now that I've done it,
I feel more experienced and confi-
dent. I went through the process of
writing a grant and preparing an
abstract, and then presenting my
work. I can apply this experience
to anything I do in the medical
field
Biomedical scientists in ma-
jor biomedical research laborato-
ries mentor the fellows for eight to
12 weeks as they work on specific
research projects. The fellows then
present their research at an annual
symposium.
Small's project was on the
Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) and
regulation of glucose transporter
MPNA gene expression. Basically,
her research has applications for
wound healing. TNF is released
during infections and fol lowing an
injury. The lab where Small con-
ducted her research found tha t TNF
causes the cells that repair wounds
(fibro blasts) to increase the amount
of glucose they use. She also re-
searched what mechanism was
involved in the increase in glucose
usage.
"The project was frustrat-
ing at times, but there was a very

might say, they get no respect.
Vested with full law enforcement
powers and responsibilities,
ECU's campus police have all the
authority of the Greenville Po-
lice Department.
Yetstudents frequently con-
sider them glorified security
guards. Similar to those in a small
city or county, ECU police offic-
ers have jurisdiction over all uni-
versity property and adjacent
streets. They take their jobs seri-
ously just like Greenville city po-
lice, and their main concern is the
safety and well-being of ECU stu-
dents and faculty.
"Those guys are clowns
said Scott Wagner, a senior Com-
munications major. "All they do
is give out parking tickets
Wagner's attitude reflects
that of many students. Many mis-
conceptions exist as to the actual
roles of campus police. For one,
they are not responsible for issu-
ing parking tickets.
"We have very little to do
with parking violations one pa-
trol officer said. "That task is
handled by the reserve officers
over at the parking and traffic
division
Sophomore Christine
Behan mockingly refers to
campus police as "keystone
cops" and admits that she is
not sure whether they go
through legitimate police
training.
A university pamphlet
on campus security and safety
states that "all sworn officers
receive identical training and
certification as other North
Carolina police officers It
also says that they obtain ad-
ditional training in first aid,
CPR, firearms, defensive tac-
tics and communication skills

ECU's jazz ensemble records first CD
By Shannon Cooper
Staff Writer
For those with a taste for
big band swing or contempo-
rary jazz, ECU's Jazz
Ensemble's new compact disc.
Jazz Directions One may come as
a pleasant surprise.
azz Directions One, re-
corded in April of '93, was di-
rected by Carroll V. Dashiell,
head of the ECU School of Mu-
sic Jazz Program.
Dashijill is not new to the
recording business. He main-
tains an active performance and
recording schedule of his own.
Dashiell is also a nationally rec-
ognized bassist, composerar-
ranger and director.
Recorded on the campus
of ECU, Jazz Directions One in-
cludes works by Count Basie,
George Gershwin, Hoagy
Carmichael, Benny Golson and
the Yellow Jackets.
"One of the concepts we
have with the jazz program is
versatility and diversity
Dashiell said. "We like to say
that we do music from Duke
Ellington to Michael Jackson
Amp ig the contemporary
compositions included on the
CD is the popular tune, "Beauty
and the Beast
"At the time we recorded,
one of the hot tunes on the com-
mercial circuit was the Beauty
and the Beast theme which is also
a lighter jazz Dashiell said.
"We wanted to do some heavy
jazz along with some lighter
jazz
One of the first obstacles
the jazz ensemble undertook
was transforming their prac-
tice room 101 into studio 101.
"I think the CD was good
considering the circum-
stances said Bruce Erickson,
a member of the ensemble's
horn section. "We didn't
record in an actual studio, but
I'm satisfied with it
Jazz Directions One was
an interdepartmental effort.
Many of the compositions in-
corporated the faculty vocal
department, string depart-
ment and the jazz combo.

Litigators take on Medicators
By Tammy Zion
Staff Writer
From patient to opponent,
from in the court to on the court,
Greenville area doctors and law-
yers are gearing up to tip off the
second annual Med-Law Classic
basketball game. This charity
fund-raiser begins at 6 p.m in
Minges Coliseum on Mar. 8.
The PittCounty Health Edu-
cation Foundation (PCHEF), a
non-profit charitable organiza-
tion, is sponsoring this year's
match-up between the med icators
and the litigators. Founded in
1985, the PCHEF strives to im-
prove the health status for Pitt
County citizens.
"The idea isn't new said
Kymberly Arana, coordinator of
the event. "Several other commu-
nities have been successful We
just incorporated on the idea
The physicians were victo-
rious in last year's game, but Pitt
County's homeless were the real
winners. Over $40,000 was raised,
mainly from private donations, to
benefit homeless shelters and or-
ganizations in Greenville. This
year, PCHEF is hoping to raise
$50,000, Arana said.
"The Health Education
Board decides what area of need
they want to address said Arana.
"This year we are addressing
children's needs
Two games will be played,
one for the male physicians and
attorneys, and one for the females.
Each game will be highlighted by
cheerleaders in the professions.
Last year, male cheerleaders for
the medicators, the sweet thangs,
featured Tahitian-style dresses,
said Arana. Litigator coach Steve
Stephenson was unavailable for
comment.

we had fun too
Small chose Dr. Phillip
Rekala, professor of biochemistry,
to mentor her project. " I le was cine
of my first-year professors, and I
really enjoyed working with him
Small said. "I le is a good person as
far as asking questions and stimu-

Rekala accompanied Small
when she gave her talk about her
project in Princeton, N. during
January.
Ninety candidates competed
for the 1993 Fellowship Program.
Deans from 55 medical schools
nominated students who demon-
strated academic achievement,
leadership skills and the potential
tor playing a responsible role in
academic medicine.
"These fellows represent a
highly underutilized resource
which must be enhanced it this
country is to remain the world
leader in biomedical research and
academic medicine said Leon E.
Rosenberg, M.D president of
Bristol-Myers Squibb Pharmaceu-
tical Research Institute.
Rosenberg also said that the
Fellows Program advances the
quality of education and broad-
ens educational opportunities for

women and poor communities, as
well as a course in environmental

When she was ready to at-

ECU because it was one of the few
schools with a mission that states

Valentine's Day. The most bizarre holi-
day ever. It ranks right up there with Easter,
which celebrates the death of someone, and it's
more bizarre than New Year's Eve, which is
really just an excuse to get drunk. Valentine's
Day serves much the same purpose ? as an
excuse to buy cards, flowers and chocolates
(something the greeting card industry, the flo-
rists and the confectioners just looove).
Love. The really ironic thing about St.
Valentine's Day (it's official name) is that it is
thought to commemorate the execution of two
Roman priests who lived in the third century.
Two beheaded priests. Now, in their honor, we
give long stemmed roses and Fanny Farmer
candies. Nope. Sorry ? that just isn't a plau-
sible reason to celebrate romantic love.
It is possible that the holiday comes from
the Feb 15th celebration in ancient Rome,
known as Lupercalia. This festival celebrated
the pastoral god Lupercus, a fertility god. Or
Valentine's Day may even come from the prac-
tice in medieval times of sending love letters
on the second fortnight of the second month,
since it was a belief that birds began to mate at
that time. Any way you look at it (two Roman
beheadings, fertility rites or bird matings), the
goofy, romantic ideal that we cherish
Valentine's Day to be, has no significance to
the history that lies behind the day.
So there seems to be a messy, patchwork
of justifications for celebrating this holiday,
but no substanial reason for doing it. In true
profit-making, capitalistic form, America has
turned this supposed holiday into a tool. And
they (the same greeting card people, florists
and confectioners) do it through guilt. If you
don't participate, they make you feel like you
are the most worthless, selfish, loveless jerk on
the planet. And if you happen to be an
independant, perf ectly-happy-you-don' t-have-
a-mate kind of a person, you're a bigger loser,
because you should. Just so you can buy cards
(and flowers and chocolates).
But they don't stop there. If you're not in a
relationship, there are cards to be bought for
your mom, dad, grandmother, cousin, sister,
mailman Come on! Somehow, the day that
has been ingrained in our psyche to signify
romantic love cannot be substituted with valen-
tines to mom and pop. Patronizing? You bet.
Even if vou're in a relationship, it isn't any
better. Here, vou are cornered by duty to your
significant other. Talk about mind games?just
what is expected of the other can erupt into
numerous yelling matches, crying fits and cold
silences, if the errant lover happens to forget this
precious holiday. There's where the loser stands
? the one who puts so much significance on this
holiday that represents love, and retaliates with
selfishness and snobbishness. Besides, love
should be central in a relationship all year round.
Not just in a stinkin' holiday.
It's just plain aggravating. And who needs
it? Kissy-kissy actions on one day of the year just
because it happens to be that day is pretty
ridiculous. Maybe we should all rethink this
holiday. Don't let marketing people and adver-
tisers decide when you should express your
feelings. This includes Father's Day, Mother's
Day and Secretaries Day.
Besides, roses just die in a few days anyway.

ATF raided peaceful Branch Davidian families
The trial for the nine surviv-
ing Branch Davidian cult mem-
bers began a few weeks ago. Basi-
cally the government has no case
against the nine surviving cult
members. However, even though
they will lose the trial, it will still
serve their pur- gggB
poses. As any
true Orwellian
knows, if you
can success-
fully accuse
your victims of
crimes which
you yourself are
guilty of, then
you absolve
yourself of these
crimes.
More than a year later there
are still two questions which re-
main unanswered. Why did the
Federal Bureauof Alcohol, Tobacco
and Firearms lay siege upon a
peaceful group of families? And
why did the ATF and the Federal
Bureau of Investigations try to end
the standoff the way they did?
The ATF on Sunday Feb.
28, 1993, went to the Branch
Davidian compound in order to
arrest David Koresh on weapons
charges and to search the com-
pound for other aJlegationsof mis-
conduct by cult members. Making
no attempt to identify themselves,
the ATF raided the compound and
were met with heavy resistance.
David Koresh, as recently as
three days before the raid went
into Waco by himself. Why didn't
the ATF take this opportunity to
arrest Koresh? With Koresh incus-
tody, my guess is tha t the cult mem-
bers would have submitted to a
peaceful search of their facilities.
Even if they put up resistance, it
probably wouldn' t ha ve been any-
where near as ferocious or deter-
mined without their leader.
I think the reason the ATF
waited was purely political. If you
recall, the AIT had been severely
criticized by the media in the months
rightbeforethecompoundraid.They
had been receiving a lot of bad pub-
licity due to sexual harassment and
racial discrimination charges. I think
wmmmmmmmmmm the ATF
wanted to stif
I would be willing to
bet that about 95
percent of the
households in this
country possess
chemicals which, if
combined, could create
explosives.
up some good
PR for them-
selves.
Since
when do you
inform the
media and in-
vite them to
attend an un-
?,?? dertaking of
thismagnitude?TheATFwas grand-
standing. They thought they could
go into thecompound, arrest Koresh,
seize some weapons and be big he-
roes for a day. Instead, two hours
after they started, 4 agjnts were
killed, 6 Branch Davidians (includ-
ingababy) were killed and the stand-
off had begun.
Some of the allegations lev-
eled against the cult members are
just plain ridiculous. The ATF al-
leged thattheBranchDavidiariswere
guilty of sexual and physical abuse
to minors. This allegation was being
used profusely by every major me-
dia outlet. However, of the 17 chil-
dren (ranging from 3 to 12 years of
age) who got out of the compound
alive, not one has indicated any sort
of sexual or physical abuse.
Another ridiculous allegation
leveled against thecult members was
tha t they were in possession of chemi-
cals which, if combined, could create
explosives. I would be willing to bet
that about 95 percentof the house-
holds in this country possess chemi-
cals which, if combined,could create
explosives.
The most absurd allegation
brought against the cult members by
the ATF was that the Branch

Davidians were in possession of
books, documents and videotapes
on the use of guns and explosives. I
hope you all will agree with me that
thepossessionof these materialsdoes
notconstituteaviolationofany law.
However, removal of these materi-
als I believe would be in gross viola-
tion of the First and Fourth Amend-
ments. Yet, this is what the ATF
wanted to do.
In order to answer the second
question, I think again we must look
at political motives. After 51 days,
the standoff was becoming a major
embarassment for the ATF, FBI Janet
Reno and the justice department,
and even the President. Theone thing
the Branch Davidians didn't count
on was the repercussions of making
all these people look bad.
Public opinion was beginning
toturnagainstthe ATF inspiteof the
concerted propaganda campaign of
the media and the government. I
believe this was their true motive for
the final assault against the Branch
Davidians. They could have
outwaited the cult members.
Yes, it was expensive keeping
the compound surrounded, but the
cost of lives lost far outweighs any
monetary expense. The fact remains
that Janet Reno approved the ATF
FBI plan to raid the compound and
she should be held solely respon-
sible for the deaths of all the cult
members.
Everyone jokes about how the
government screws everything up,
but when they start attacking their
own people, the word "despotism"
immediately comes to mind. Every
phase of our government is out of
control and the ATF raid on the
Branch Davidian compound is an
event that history may well remem-
ber as the beginning of a new period
in American government ? a pe-
riod in which individual rights are
continuously under assault and
eventually eradicated.

Football teamwork, tasteless beer commercials
At one point during my night
class the other evening, theconver-
sation turned to the subject of foot-
ball. I always get uncomfortable
when people start talking about
football because I know absolutely
nothing about the subject.
Call me un-American, call me
inhuman (call me un-ECU), but I
have never cared about football. I
used to go to games when I was in
high school, but I never actually
watched. At that time, everything
was a social event and I was more
interested in socializing than in
watching a game that I didn't un-
derstand.
I had a really bad attitude
about football and couldn't figure
cut what people like about watch-
ing men enact violence upon one
another. I used to roll my eyes when
friends of mine got defensive about
their favorite teams and when they
went crazy over home runs (I'm
only kidding. I mean touchdowns,
of course).
Just recently, I found some-
thing valuable in football. I still
don't like watching the game, but I
now realize that there is something
positive about people working to-
gether as a team in order to accom-
plish a specific goal. Men get this
sort of training from the time that
they are children. Male children
are encouraged to play team sports,
like football, and they are encour-
aged to work together and to be
agressive in competition. Female
children, while they are sometimes
encouraged to participate in team
sports, also participate in individu-
ally competitive sports like gym-
nastics. They learn to compete with
one another and are discouraged
from overtly aggressive behavior.
Let me redirect. A friend
pointed out to me that she was
really sick of hearing her female
friends criticize other women. I got
to thinking about the way women
take inventory of one another, be-
come jealous of one another and
stab one another in the back, and I
decided that the negativity comes
from a learned notion of appropri-
ate female competition. While men
are taught to compete as a team,
women are taught to compete with
one another?often for men.
Before I start to sound like a
psychology experiment gone hay-
wire, let me say that I don't mean to
imply that we're all bitches or that
we can't get along with one an-
other because we can and very of-
ten do, we just need to learn how to
support each other's achievements
rather than be jealous of them. Oth-
erwise, we remain divided and,
therefore, conquered. We need to
actively participate rather than
stand on the sidelines and cheer.
(Now I sound like a pep rally,
but sports analogies seem to work
well in discussions of human be-
havior?ever refered to sex as a
"home run?")
Speaking of cheerleading,
remember a few years ago when
the mother of a high school
cheerleader attempted to have
another cheerleader murdered ?
How about this thing with
Nancy Kerrigan and Tonya
Harding? If we observe the way
competition functions when
there is no sense of teamwork,
we see its potential danger.
Anyway, in light of learn-
ing skills that are necessary to
function in the business world,
to compromise and work with
others, I have begun to see some
value in football and the mili-
tary because I feel that partici-
pants in these institutions learn
how to support one another and ;
how to work together.
But since women have
generally been excluded from '
participation in arenas where a - J
teamwork ethos is instilled, we ?
-
need to learn to be supportive
of one another's actions rather
than jealous and critical of them.
Back to football, I am a
little more tolerant than I used
to be, but I still hate the beer
commercials that air during
football games and I couldn't
tell you the name of a single
NFL team. The lack of knowlege,
though, is not really something
that I perceive as a weakness; I
hope that you support me in my
descision not to be a sports fan
Oh yeah, happy"
Valentine's Day.
Letters to the Editor
To the Editor:
There's nothing more exciting (or nerve-rackng)
about waiting for the outcome of the test you just
completed. If we are like the good little androids we
should be, then we all scored one-hundred percent on
the test.
No? You mean we are really human beings with
feelings, commitments, and (dare I say it) other respon-
sibilities not related with school in any way. so we're
not really computers which can be fed data and transfer
it back at the proper time with no information lost.
Then what good are we? God forbid that you
should do something so human as to make a less-than-
perf ect grade on a test, because if you do, then you must
be faulty in some way and you might as well drop the
class or just quit. Sounds a bit harsh doesn't it? Well in
our instructions of 'higher' learning, as colleges are
often called, if you mess up just once, advisers and
instructors encourage you to drop the class. Long dead
is the saying, "If at first you don't succeed, try, try
again May it rest in peace.
You can imagine it came as quite a shock to my
system that the lessons from the book The Little Engine
That Could were in vain.
These so-called higher learning institutions
have taught me a thing or two. They have taught
me that the 'educators' of this system knowing very
little about you or the effort that you put forward,
judge your entire performance in a course from one
test. Just ONE
If this isn't true, then why do almost all in-
structors in college have their first exam BEFORE
the last drop date? Hmmm? Is the picture coming
in clear yet?
Suppose you got sick and were unable to go
to the doctor, or maybe your young children kept
you up all night, or maybe you just had a week
wherenothingwentright.Thatshould matter right?
WRONG Let's be real and get with the program.
This isn't an education system, nor is it a learning
institution, it's a testing system where one test can
make or break you. Let's not be bashful about it,
whether you call it feces or crap, it still stinks.
So boys and girls get out your number 2
pencils and open your booklets because the test is
about to begin.

To the Editor:
In response to your January 17th editorial on
Clinton's State of the Union Address, I would like to
question where The East Carolinian arrives at the num-
ber 38.5 million uninsured Americans. While the issue
of health care was being forced into the spotlight,
PresidentClin ton enjoyed using thenumber 37 million,
yet in his own book, "Putting People First he sights
that number at 60 million! Why the change in numbers
Mr. President? How did some 23 million people sud-
denly get health care? Even the number 37 million is
erroneous. In fact, according to the latest CBO
study, of those supposed 37 million uninsured
Americans 51 percent were uninsured for less then
four months, and 72 percent for less then a year!
Even the 1990 census agrees that there are less then
10 million "long-term" uninsured Americans. So I
am VERY curious as to how The East Carolinian
came up with 1.5 million more "uninsured" Ameri-
cans than the President of the United States.

Editor's note: Political writer Jill Lawrence cites "38.5 million people without insurance In the Jan.
26 edition of USA Today, Clinton speaks of 58 million Americans that 1 have no coverage at all for some
time each year" (in other words, college graduates and those who simply cannot afford insurance). Do theless
than W million people you speak ofnot deserve health insurance, simply because they happen to be m the minority?

The comics industry lost one of its most influen-
tial creators Sunday. Jack "King" Kirby, who was
best known for being a primary figure in the ush-
ering in of the "Marvel Age" of comics, was 76. In
the early '60s, Kirby created such comic staples
as the X-Men, The Fantastic Four, Mister Miracle,
The New Gods, Thor, The Hulk, The Silver
Surfer, and countless others. His dynamic and
gestural drawing and inking style seeped its way
into the consciousness of a generation, and he
will be missed by many.

Gras festival in New Orleans.
Traditionally, costume balls or
masquarade parties are thrown af-

Valentine gifts sold
by School of Art
By Sarah Wahlert
Staff Writer
Everyone has a sweetie or a
special someone in his or her life
be it known or secret. Now is
your chance to show that certain
person you appreciate just how
much you care! (I'm not talking
Hallmark cards) The ECU School
of Art will be having their annual
Valentines Sale Thursday and Fri-
day, Feb. 10 11 from8am-5pm
and Saturday, Feb. 12
from 10 am-2 pm. Not
only is the sale open to
students, but to the
whole community so
tell all your Greenville
friends about it!
There are many
school organizations in-
volved in the sale like Craftsmen
East (which includes metals,
woods, and textiles), Ceramics
Guild, Painting Guild, and De-
sign Associates. All of these sepa-
rate organizations are joined un-
der the Visual Arts Forum which
includes the whole art school. I
had a chat with Lynn Strucinski,
vice president of Craftsmen East,
about the Valentine's Day Sale.
Strucinski said, "There are
two main reasons behind having
this Valentine's Sale. First of all,
by selling the original items, 20-
30 of the profits will go to the
designated guild for that media.
That money will pay for new
equipment and visiting artists for
workshops. The rest of the profits
will go to the individual creator
of the handcrafted items to pay
for art supplies. So both the stu-
dents and the organizations ben-
efit Strucinski went on to say,
"The other reason is to help stu-
dents learn to market their work

Travel to London and get class credit
By Laura Wright
Assistant Lifestyle Editor
Students may think that they
have the rest of their lives to travel,
to get out of the country and to
experience othercultures. The truth
of the matter is, whether they be-
lieve it or not, they will never have
as much free time?in the form of
breaks and summers off?as they
do as a college student.
Students can spend a month in
London this summer and receive
up to four hours of college credit.
All that is required is that students
are enrolled at ECU and that they
have a GPA?it matters not how
low. Travelers that partake of this
offer will leave from Raleigh on
July 1 and return on July 23. Not
enough time, you say? A ten-day
tour of Europe is optional and al-
lows you to leave Raleigh on June
22 and see Paris, Brussells and
Amsterdam. And for$50exrra, stu-
dents can leave from any city in
Europe and stay even longer.
In London, students will stay
in Kensington Gardens in Hyde
Park and can take classes through
the University of Richmond.
Courses, like Literary London and
History of London, will be offered
and students can also take classes
in English, humanities, social sci-
ences, history and performing
arts. The British Museum and
Library will be accessible to stu-
dents and there will be a special
focus on the African and Carib-
bean populations in London. Stu-
dents will be allowed to visit the
Africa Center and the Caribbean
Market. Dr. Gay Wilentz, who is
organizing the trip, wants to fa-

Club 757 hosts comic, dinner
By Stephanie Tullo
Lifestyle Editor
There is a special treat
planned for this Valentine's Day.
The student union is hosting a
dinner and show "For the Love of
Laughs" featuring comedian Troy
Thirdgill. The show is free and
will be held at Mendenhall Stu-
dent Center.
Dinner will begin at 6:00 p.m.
in the Social Room in Mendenhall.
The dinner includes tossed green
salad, herb baked chicken, green
beans almondine, rice pilaf and,
for dessert, assorted fruit pies.
The Residence Hall Association
has planned this special
Valentine's dinner. "The food is
good and reasonably priced said
Michael Preston, the student
union president here at ECU.
The show begins at 7:57 p.m.
at "Club 757" in the social room
in Mendenhall. The comedian,
Troy Thirdgill, is originally from
Portland, Ore and he is becom-
ing one of the country's hottest
new comics. Thirdgill had his
first experience on stage at the
age of 23 at the world famous
Melrose Improv. That evening the
owner Budd Friedman booked
him on the show "An Evening at
the Improv
At his appearance on BET's
"Comic View the audience re-
sponded enthusiastically with a
demand for an encore perfor-
mance at the end of the show. His
vivacity and insight take on life in
the '90s and keep audiences yell-
ing for more. "We wanted to break
from tradition. We are trying to
make it fun where people can get
together said Michael Preston.
Tickets are on sale now at the
Central Ticket Office at
Mendenhall Student Center. Tick-
ets are $6 for students and $8 for
faculty and staff, for the dinner.

YAGGFU Front?an acronym that
states "You Are (ionna (let Fucked

North Carolina came together, after
being disillusioned with college, to
pursue their mutual, music-related
interests.
YAGGFU Front made waves on
last year's club scene with their first
singles, "Lookin' for a Contract" and
"Basted Loop Now they ha vecome

and finally making a record of their
own.
Lyrically, these guys have es-
caped theworn-out, gangs ta garbage:

rare thing in the rap world.

men who go by the names D'ranged

Innovation is the idea behind both
their lyrics and music. They have the
standard head-nodding beats and
plenty of funk. Then they add jazz,
bigband, cartoon blurbsand obscure
novelty records. In addition,Spin4th
and Jingle Bel excel in their upright
bass and brass skills, while Damaged
holds his own on the paino.

I have heard some people say
that all rap sounds the same, but
anyone who really listens knows
that to be untrue. Rap music as a
genre evolves and shape-shifts
much faster than any other kind of
music. The styles, subject matter,
beats, samples, catch phrases and

a constant flux. On one end of the

Blink: just another thriller on the big screen
By Ike Shibley
Staff Writer
The newest thriller playing at
vour local movie multiplex goes by
the name of Blink. Like many other
suspense stories, Blink bills itself as
different from other films becauseof
some ingenious plot hook.
Theplot contrivance, whichpur-
ports to separate Blink from the mul-
titude of other potboilers cranked
out by HoUyw(X)d each year, con-
cerns theblindnessof its lead charac-
ter. Emma Brody (MadeleineStowe)
wasblindedateightyearsofagedue
to trauma to both corneas caused
when her mother smashed her face
BREAK
intoamirroraspunishmentforplay-
ing with make-up.
Twenty years later Emma gets
the opportunity to regain her eye-
sight via a COXIiea transplant. At first
Emma can see very little, and what
she does see sometimes only regis-
ters in her brain minutes or hours
later.
The plot twist, which amounts
to not much of a twist at all, comes
when Emma catches sight of a mur-
derer exiting her building only a few
days after her operation. To make
the story somewhat more compel-
ling, Emma only sees the killer clearly
the next day in flashback and even
then she doubts whether she could
Continued from page 9
pick him out from a police line-up.
Part of the appeal of Blink is not
just the murder that takes place but
also the change that takes place in
Emma during the course of the film.
Madeleine Stowe manages to
make Emma extremely tough yet vul-
nerable. She plays a violin and recog-
nizes lines from Longfellow yet main-
tainsan ironexteriorwhich keeps her
fiercely independent. Sparks begin to
fly between a detective investigating
the case (Aidan Quinn),and Emma is
forced to confront feelings of attach-
ment to another person.
Quinn fills his role with so much
tenderness that he is never really con-
vincing as a hard-boiled detective.
He and Stowe do play nicely off each
other though and Quinn's charac-
ter brings a little humor to the film.
James Remar, as another hard-
nosed Chicagodetective,adds great
support. Though saddled with a
thankless role, Remar emotes as
much as the proscenium arch will
allow. It vould be great to see him
with some bigger, meatier roles in
the future.
Blink was directed by Michael
Apted whobegan his career in Brit-
ish television and has prod uced the
much acclaimed films 28 Up and 35
Up, which interview a group of
people at seven-year intervals be-
ginning at age seven.

quarters. The cost of the adventure
package is $89.95 per student, and
equipment is included.
Mountainbikingand Whitewater
rafting have increased in popularity,
especially with younger adults who
are seeking new forms of excitement.
"Combining the two outdoor activi-
ties seemed like the natural thing to
do said Ridge Rider, who hardies
the biking portion of the adventure.
Youdon'tneed any special skills
to enjoy this adventure, not even the
ability to swim. The raft boats are
equipped withCoastGuard approved
life vests that are designed to keep
even non-swimmers afloat. And the
bike tours aregeared towardsall types
of riders, from novice to advanced.
Mountain River Tours lias been
rafting down the New River in Hico,
W.V. for over 21 seasons. It isalsoone
of the first companies to incorporate
both rafting and biking in one pack-
age, which is being offered for a third
season, has become greatly sought-
after.
"We are always looking for a
new way to enhance a person's out-
door adventure said Paul Breuer,
the owner of Mountain River Tours.
"This will be a great way for students
to try something new and realize the
many outdoor opportunities the New
River Gorge area has to offer
"We welcome anyone that has
neverdone anything like this before

Wolfpack handle Lady Pirates
Photo by Cedric Van Buren
Tomekia Fruky Blackmon, shown earlier this year, has been a bright
spot on a struggling Pirate roster. She is averaging 1 5 points per game.
By Dave Pond
Assistant Sports Editor
The Lady Pirates were
soundh beaten78-49bytheN.C
State Wolfpack List night in
Minges Coiesium. Once again,
ECU played great defense early,
but a poor transition game and
sloppv shooting were their
downfall.
East Carolina shot a meager
23 6 percent tor the game, while
turning the ball over 16 times to
the Lady Pack. On the other
hand .C. State shot 51.7 per-
cent, and had tour players scor-
ing in double figures.
The Lady Wolfpack jumped
out to a 16-9 lead behind the
strom' earlv shooting of Nicole
Mitchell, who would finish the
game with 12 points on 6-9 shoot-
ing.
Howe er, with 7:17 remain-
ing in the halt, East Carolina tied
the game at lb on a Danielle
Charlesworth steal and ensuing
lav-up, ending a seven-point run.
The Lady Pirates would stay
within few points of the lead,
following up Lady Wolfpack bas-
kets from underneath,butlet the
lead slip away from them, and
found themseh es down 32-22 at
the half-time buzzer.
ECU was led in scoring by
"Frukv" Blackmon, Danielle
Charlesworth and Shay Haves,
who each scored four points in
the half.
In the halt, the Lady Pirates
shot only 22 percent on 9-of-41
shooting. Charlesworth also
added three steals and an assist.
N.C. State came out strong
behinf the excellent shooting of
center Kolleen Kreul.
The Ladv 'Pack would in-
crease their lead to 13 on another
Kreul layup from underneath
with 16:29 remaining.
Blackmon would match that
basket with a lav-up of her own.
then Tracy Kelley followed with
a 17-foot jumper to pull the Lady
Pirates within nine points of the
lead at 38-29.
With intense full-court pres-
sure, N.C. State methodically
took control of the game, steadily
increasing their lead, and led 53-
35 on a Kreul jumper with 10:13.
The Lady Pirates would tem-
porarily lose the services of
Belinda Cagle, who sat until the
4:57 mark.
"She had a badly sprained
ankle, and that might have been
it said Lady Pirate Head Coach
Rosie Thompson. "Plus, we're
used to plaving in here when it's
cold, we're not used to the heat
The punishment was just be-
ginning, and the Lady Pirate fans
sank slowly into their seats,
watching Kolleen Kreul domi-
nate on 8-11 second-half shoot-
ing.

Gators chomp Pirates over weekend
Dave Ponci
Assistant Sports Editor
Who wouldn't want to go to
Florida during the winter1 The sun,
warm weather and palm trees make
it an great place to visit to get away
from those dreary Greenville days.
However, after two days in
Gainesville, ECL's baseball team
was more than happy to come
home, after being swept in a three-
game series against the Florida
Gators.
In the season opener, Florida
rallied from being down 2-1 to take
the 4-2 victorv behind the strong
pitching of Rob Bonanno (1 -0),who
went eight innings, allowing two
earned runs on just five hits. Danny
Wheeler pitched the ninth inning
and collected his first save of the
season.
I thought we played very hard
and very aggressive coach
Overtonsaid. 'It w as a well played
game by both clubs. We just came
out on the short end.
Lvle Hartgrove (0-1) took the
loss tor the Pirates, pitching 713
inningsand givingup three-earned
runsand 11 hits. Billy I ayton threw
the final 23 inning for ECU.
The Pirates were led at the plate
bv catcher Chad Triplert, l-fbr-3
v ith a homerun, and center-fielder
amieBorel who went l-for-4atthe
plate.
The second half of the double
header also did not go as well.
East Carolina jumped out to an
earlv three-run lead against Florida
starter lohn Kaufman (1-0),scatter-
ing nine hits in 2 3 innings against
the hurler. Once again, the Pirates
failed tohold the lead as L F whittled
away at the lead, eventually win-
ning the contest 5-4.
The lethal blow was dealt by
Gator PI 1 fames Eidam, who's two-
run double in the eighth inning
was more than Coach Overtoil's

to lead East Carolina Univer-
sity to a 73-62 Colonial Ath-
letic Association victor over
American University on Mon-
day.
The Pirates improved to
13-8 and 5-4 in conference
play, while American fell to
5-16,2-7.
After dueling to a 31-31
halftime tie, the Eagles opened
the second period by scoring
eight ot the first 11 points in-
cluding two three-pointers by
Christian Ast. From thatpoint,
the Pirates posted a 14-0 run
culminated by a Chuckie
Robinson lay up with 12:44 re-
maining to lead 48-38.
American weathered the
Pirates' barrage of low-post
scoring and crawled back into
the game switching from a
zone to a man-to-man de-
fense. When Duane Gilliam
hit two free-throws with 3:48
remaining, the Eagles had cut
the Pirate lead to 60-58.
But the swarming East
Carolina defense stymied
.American on offense espe-
ciallv in the post. The Pirates
held the Eagle's usual scoring
leader, Tim Fudd, to a sea-
son-low eight points.
Leading by 62-58 with
3:02 remaining, the Pirates
held on, hitting nine of 10 free-
throws down the stretch for
the win.
Ast and Gilliam led the
Eagles with 18 each.

Sports world mourns death
(AP) ? Two days after
Livingstone College quarterback
Darrell Ardrey died in a head-on
collision witha truck,oneofhis friends
cannot believe Ardrey is gone.
"I called his home in Winston,
just so 1 could hear his voice on the
answering machine said George
Washington, who played football
with Ardrev since their sophomore
vear in high school.
Ardrev, thequarterback who led
the Livingstone College Fighting
Bears for the past four years, drove to
Concord Friday night to meet Wash-
ington and others for Barber Scotia
College's homecoming party.
He drove separately so he could
leave earlv Saturday morning and
return to his Winston-Salem apart-
ment, Washington said.
He was killed in a wreck about
7:30 a.m. on U.S. 601 bypass in Con-
cord, said Sgt. T.R. Templeton of the
Concord Police Department.
Ardrey, who was trying to pass
inhis 1989 Acura Legend,hita 50,000-
pound truck head-on, Templeton
said.
Wilbert Ben Dow, 48, of High
Point, drove the truck owned by
Hvdro Conduit Corp. of
Thomasville. He was treated and
released atCabamis Memorial Hos-
pital.
Templeton estimated that at
impact, the truck driver was travel-
ing about 20 mph and Ardrey about
50 mph. 1 he speed limit was 55, but
driving conditions were poor,
Templeton said.
Washington, an of tensive tickle,
had blocked for Ardrey since 1987,

ation, they decided to attend

Monday during a 90-minute work-

Jordan took more than 50 cuts in
the batting cage and hit only several

and shagged fly balls in, of all places,

Baskets that he reached so easily
in leading the Chicago Bulls to three
straight NBA titles were raised to the
roof. And the baseball made a strange
thud as it hit the wood floor. One

But it's hitting that will deter-

Williams getting ready for return
RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) ? Top-
ranked North Carolina must guard
against feeling too confident with
the return of leading scorer Donald
Williams, coach Dean Smith says.
"There is a tendency to think
we have Williams back and we're
back to normal and that could be a
real problem said Smith.
Williams, sidelined for six
games with a slightly separated left
shoulder, mav return Thursday
night against Maryland.
The Tar Heels (19-3) have won
six straight since Williams, averag-
ing 16.2 points, went down in an 81 -
77 loss at Virginia on Jan. 19.
The MVP of last year's Final
BASEBALL
Four also missed three games in
early January with a foot injury.
Smith said Williams practiced
early in the week for the first time
without pain and, if he continues to
progress, he could play about 15
minutes ? most likely as a reserve
? against the Terrapins (12-b).
"His conditioning isn't what
wewould likeSmithsaid. "1 think
it will be slow getting him back in
A bigger question is will Will-
iams' shooting touch return?
He scored just five points in 2
1 2 games after the foot injury. He
was averaging 20.5 a game.
Williams is the team's top 3-
point threat, and opponents have
been using sagging defenses with
him out of the lineup. But replace-
ment Dante Calabria has filled in
well, averaging 9.6 points and lead-
ing the team with 30 3-pointers.
Smith's hardest coaching job
now will begetting the playing time
for Williams, point guard Derrick
Phelps, Calabria and freshman Jeff
Mclnnis, who has been playing with
more confidence the last month.
"The first time Donald came
back from the toe injury) Dante felt
he didn't play real well, "Smith said.
"We'll trv to get him time in any
game the rest of the year because
he's a very important part of the

However, the
Pirates will have to change their
game plan to stay competitive and
return to the NCAAs. The top three
power hitters from the '93 squad,
Pat Watkins, Lee Kushner, and
Chris West, are gone, along with
their combined 41 homers and 160
RBls.
On the mound, Overton will
again look to veteran Johnny Beck
to lead his staff. Last year Beck was
named a Second Team All-CAA se-
lection, and led the league in
strikeouts, with 88. He is consid-
ered as a pick for the 1994 pro draft.
Lyle Hartgrove and Mike

Johnny Beck's love for base-

day his dad

took him out
into a field,
gave him a
glove and
began toss-
ing the ball to
the younger Beck. That was 15
years ago.
Beck has compiled 77 to 80
strikeouts per season for the Pi-
rates. He needs just 33 more to
become ECU's all-time strikeout
leader.
Today, Johnny looks at his fi-
nal Pirate baseball season with en-
thusiasm. Despite his success as a
pitcher, Beck realizes certain as-
pects of his game could still use
improvement.
"I have to get it into my head
that I can't strike everyone out

to throw something other than
fastballs
Aside from the mound, Beck

That conver-
sation gave Beck
the motivation to
play collegiate
baseball.
Johnny s dad
told him to sit
down and write
three things he
wanted to ac-
complish in base-
ball from that
day forward. He
told Johnny to
make the goals slightly unattain-
able because that would make him
work harder.

Beck's goals included making
All-State, attending a Division I
school and eventually playing at
the professional level.
Beck realized his first two as-
pirations shortly after compiling
the list.
However, success has not al-
ways been easy for this Garner
native. It was during baseball sea-
son of his sophomore year that Beck
lost his father.

Beck looks forward to break-
ing a college record and hopes for
a chance in the pros. But if a pro-
fessional career is not feasible, Beck
will be prepared.
"I'll be coaching and teach-
ing somewhere in this state at the

ECU gains

ditions to the roster in 1994. As for

the younger players must take re-
sponsibility for. When the
Watkins, Kushnets, and Wests of
ECU baseball move on from the
green grass of Harrington Field to
other challenges, its time for the
torch to be passed.
Coach Overton looked to the
junior college (JUCO) circuit to
recruit players for immediate im-
pact on his team. Six players have
been added to the Pirate roster,
and all of them could eventually
be starters this season. Three first-
year freshmen and a walk-on will
further strengthen the roster for
Coach Overton.

coach Steve
Logan and hits
the diamond in
the spring for
coach Gary
Overton. Two-sport athletes are
seldom seen, and Jacobs has
planned to make an impact in both
sports.
Jacobs was recruited out of
high school to be a quarterback by
former ECU football coach Bill
Lewis but his dreams of someday
playing college baseball were still
present.
"At the time I was playing
(baseball in high school), 1 was told
by Coach Lewis that I could play
both sports here Jacobs said. "So,
that's what my plans were. I de-
cided to come to East Carolina to
play football and baseball.
His quarterback dreams were
flushed away when he was
switched to a punter during his
sophomore season. He became the
starting punter for the Pirates in six
of the team's games duringthe 1992
season.
The job of being a punter did
not work out to Jacobs either, and
this past football season, Jacobs was
used solely on special teams.
"I probably have more of a
chance of having a career in base-
ball than I do in football with just
snapping and holding Jacobs
said.
"If I was still playing quarter-
back, that might be a different
thing, but that is out the window
he said Right now 1 have a better
chance of making it in baseball than
I do in football
Jacobs is definitely not new to
the sport of baseball. He played at
the varsity level for three years at
Smithfield-Selma High School and
also played American Legion base-
ball over his past summers.
During his senior season in
high school, professional scouts
came out in the spring to watch
him play baseball, even though
Jacobs had already made a com-
mitment to play college football in
the fall for the Pirates.
The N.Y. Mets and Montreal
Expos both came to see him play
and they both teams urged him to
not give up baseball.
"He is a hard worker head
coach Gary Overton said. "His ethic
is very strong. We feel very fortu-
nate to have him with us because
he came to school here as a football
player. We are very happy he has
bolstered an already strong pitch-
ing staff
Michael Jacobs
The main reason Jacobs took
the football scholarship was be-
cause football was the first sport
played during the school year and
he did not feel like waiting around
for the other sports to begin. He
basically took what he could get at
the time.

Pitching myth dispelled by James
(Editor's note: This is selected text
from Bill ames' book This Time Let's
Not Eat the Bones, copyright 1989, by
Bill James. He has authored several
books, and is a renowned statistician.)
Let's ta ke the sta temen t tha t base-
ball is 75 percent pitching. First off, it
is nearly impossible to know what is
meant by this. "Baseball" is a lot of
things- you got your games, you got
your pennant races, your personali-
ties, your box scores, your anecdotes,
vour hot dogs you've got your Hot
Stove league and your televised games,
your All-Star game and your World
Series. Does this mean that 75 percent
of ball games are determined by what
the pitcher does? Does it mean that 75
percent of ball games are determined
by who the pitcher is? Does it refer to
75 percent of pennant races? Seventy-
five percent of short series? Seventy-
fivepercent of batterpitcher confron-
tations? Does it mean that 75 percent
of all hot dogs are eaten when the
pitcher has the ball? What?
It doesn't mean any of those
things; it's just a number picked out of
midair and plunked down in the
middle of a bunch of words in a way
that seems to make sense, provided
that you don't think too hard about it.
It's a bit like saying that "Philosophy
is seventy-five percent God "Mov-
ies are seventy-five percent acting or
"Sex is seventy-five percent physical
Or "That statement that baseball is
seventv-fi ve percent pitching is ninety-
percent nonsense.
However, to the extent that it is
meaningful, it's false. We don't know
what it docs mean, but there are
many things that it might mean.
If pitching were the dominant
part of the game, then there are
manv other, more specific state-
ments which we would expect
to be true. None of them are true.
For example:
Tlie teams tliat have the better
pitcher starting would win 75 per-
cent of the time. Doesn't happen.
On a very rare occasion, you
mighthavea pitcher, like Dwight
Gooden in 1985, who wins 75
percent of his starts-but it is a
very rare occasion, indeed. If you
are saying that "Pitching is 75 percent
of baseball when Dwight Gooden is
on the mound, as long as Babe Ruth
isn't hitting I might buy it.
In a free market economy, pitcliers
would make the most money, since they
would be the most sought after play-
ers. Hasn't happened. In fact, on the
averagepitchers make less money than
players at almost every other position.
Teams uvuld never trade a regular
pitcher for a regular player. Think about
it-if you' vegot a twenty-five-man ros-
ter with nine pitchers, who represent
75 percent of the total value, and six-
teen other players who have 25 per-
cent of the value, are you going to
trade one pitcher for one hitter? Of
course not-but teams do trade pitch-
ers for hitters every winter.
Vic standard deviation of runs al-
lowed would be larger tlian tlie standard
dei'iation of runs scored. If pitching were
75 percent of the game, then one would
expect the differences between teams
created by pitching to be larger than
thosecreated by hitting. But they aren't;
the standard deviations of runs scored
and runs allowed are the same.
Pitchers would monopolize theaward
voting. If people really believes that
baseball was 75 percent pitching, then
one might expect 75 percent of the
players in the Hall of Fame to be pitch-
ers. They aren't. One might expect 75
percent of Most Valuable Players to be
pitchers. They aren't. Even in the era
before the Cy Young Award began to
siphon off votes, pitchers won less than
40 percent of Most Valuable Player
Awards. Pitchers don't win 75 percent
of Rookie of the Year Awards.
The most accurate formulas for pre-
dicting zvins and losses from runs scored
and runs allowed uvuld have to give more
-weight to runs allouvd-rcprescnting the
team's pitching-than to runs scored.
Again, it doesn't happen that way; in
fact, the most accurate methods for
predicting wins and losses from runs
scored and runs allowed weight the
two elements evenly-and no formula
can be developed which retains a simi-
lar degree of accuracy while empha-
sizing one element over another.
Trams would put most of their efforts
into dcivloping strong pitching staffs.
Managers would spend most of their
time working with their pitchers. Clubs
would employ more pitching coaches
than any other type of coaches. Indeed,
if baseball were 75 percent pitching,
then one would expect that most man-
I

The argument that
baseball is 75
percent pitching
betrays the
fundamental
nature of the game.

agers and most coaches would be
former pitchers, since they would be
best qualified to deal with the most
important p rt of the game.
Doesn'thappen. Managers spend
as much of their time working with
hitters as they do with pitchers. Teams
employ as many hitting coaches as
they do pitching coaches. Ex-pitchers
are rarely hired as mangers; most man-
agers were infielders or catchers.
Almost all first round draft picks
?would be pitchers. Less than half of first
round draft picks are pitchers.
Pitchers would be the dominant force
in determining whereaiuiwhen each offen-
sive event occurs. In fact, the identity of
the pitcher is the recessive element of
any such determination; the identity of
the hitter is the dominant element.
What I mean by that is the "spread
of occurrence" for anv offensive inci-
dent is greater for hitters than it is
for pitchers.
No pitcher allows home
runs as often as Dale Murphy hit
home runs. No pitcher allows home
runs as seldom as (Ozzie Smith) hits
home runs. No pitcher allows hits as
often as Wade Boggs gets hits. No
pitcher, not even (Tom Glavine),
allows hits as infrequently
(Sid Bream) will get a hit
No pitcher strikes
out hitters as often as
Rob Deer strikes out.
No pitcherstrikesout
hitters as rarely as
Bill Buckner strikes
out.
This is trueof ev-
ery significant area of
performance, includ-
ing those things like
walks and hit bats- J
men which are usu-
ally considered to be
controlled by the
pitcher.
That means that in or-
der to create a working model
or simulation of a baseball
game, you must allow the
hitter to be the dominant, j
shaping force ill the game. i
And if baseball were 75 j
percent pitching, one would j;
not expect that to be true. K
The general manager I:
who says that baseball is 75
percent pitching will turn
around and trade his number-
two starting pitcher to get an
outfielder. The man-
??? agerwhosaysthatbase-
ball is 75 percent pitch-
ing will spend an hour a
day figuring out batting
orders and an hour a
week lining out his pitch-
ing plans.
The reporter who
says thatbaseball is 75 per-
cent pitching will still vote
for (Barry Bonds) over
(GregMaddux)astheMost
Valuable Player. No one in
baseball acts as if he really
believes that baseball is 75
percent pitching.
In a sense, the argument that
baseball is 75 percent pitching be-
trays the fundamental nature of
the game, which is that it is circu-
lar. Every run scored is also a run
allowed. Whenever the offense suc-
ceeds, the defense fails at precisely
the same moment and to precisely
the same extent.
To say that baseball is 75 per-
cent pitching is, in a sense, like say-
ing that the head of a coin is worth
more than the tail, or like saying that
a room is bigger if you enter it from
the left than from the right. A base-
ball game is created by the joining of
the pitcher and the hitter into a single
act.
The problem with the old bro-
mide is that it attempts to tear apart
that which is in fact indissolvable.
Relief comes
quick from

ECU has an excellent starting
rotation, but if they should ever
falter, head coach Gary
Overton has a slew of
young, strong relievers
waiting in the wings.
As a team, in
1993, the Pirates
were outstand-
ing on the
mound. They
compiled a
2.99 ERA and
went 41-19.
The relievers gathered seven saves
and six wins while assisting the ECU

The quality of
this help should
continue in 1994.
The closers
for East Carolina look to be 6-5 sopho-
more Mike Jacobs and 6-4 senior who
also plavs varsity football and Rich
Rosenberger. Jacobs is taking the spring
off from football to pitch for Overton.
"There's no question that he's got the
strongest arm on the team Overton said.
"We feel he's a pro prospect, a Goose
Gossage-type of pitcher. He comes at you
with a lot of velocity and a lot of toughness"
Rosenberger is a senior transfer from
George Washington University. The right-
hander has good velocity and is prepared to
show it off.
Setting up the two fireballers will be
junior Billy Layton, and freshman Ryan Kraft.
Layton, a right-hander, "may be the most
underrated player on our pitching staff ac-
cording to Overton.
Kraft is a right-hander from Clayton
High School (10-10.44 ERA, 169 K). "We look
to him to be a starter as early as next year
Overton said.
Also in the bullpen will be freshman
Brent Billingsley, a southpaw who comes
from California armed with a good-breaking
ball.Heshouldseelimitedplayingtime,need-
ing to gain experience pitching in college
baseball.
Kenneth Collins, a redshirt freshman,
has been plagued with arm and knee prob-
lems, but if hestays healthy, hecould see some
time on the mound in 1994.
Junior walk-on Dan Forson transferred
from St. Petersburg Junior College to come
play for ECU. The 6-foot southpaw probably
won't see much playing time this season
Right-hander Jason Mills had some very
good relief performances last season and could
complement Billy Layton in a middle relief
role.
Sophomore right-hander Brandon Mohr
will see slightlv more time on the mound than
hedid last vearbut.aawdingtoCoach Overton,
has become, "a victim of a deep and talented
pitching staff
In 1994, Overton will have many options
? to go with in relief pitching situations. There-
fore, the Pirates should have an excellent
year on the mound, leading them back to
the NCAA's.

ECU's senior center fielder
Jamie Borel credits his performance
to his mental game.
"I'm into sports psychology and
stuff like that, the mental part of the
game Borel said. "I like to visual-
ize the different pitches I'm going to
see. I try and picture myself taking
the right cut and see myself hit the
ball hard
Borel is a threat from anywhere
on the field. Offensively he has the
gift of speed. Last season he stole 26-
34 bases for an .765 average. Catch-
ers fear him on the base paths; he
had an on base percentage of .414
lastseason. Hecan not only hit.com-
piling a .298 batting average last sea-
son, but he manages to get on base.
He led the Pirates in walks with 39.
His position in the lineup this year
will be crucial to ECU scoring runs.
"A player like Borel is what we
call a 'flyer Head Coach Gary
Overton said. "There's no question
his speed is his best asset. His on-
base percentage will predicate a lot
of our running game this year be-
cause he is one of the few players we
have with speed in the offensive
lineup. It will be important for Jamie
to get on base frequently
Borel came to ECU from Over-
land Park, Kan. He transferred here
last season from Johnson County
Community College. ECU has had a
good amount of success from JUCO
players and Borel was a good pickup.
"I like itbetter here (North Caro-
lina) Borel said. "I plan on living
here when I get older. There's no
way I'll go back to Kansas. I got
recruited by most of the Big Eight
schools, but for some reason I just
fell in love with the east coast. I like
to be around where I can go skiing
and where I can go to the beach. I
like the warmer weather
North Carolina is very appeal-
ing to many people and is a main
reason why ECU has so many out of
state students. The area also attracts
many athletes in all campus sports.
"I love the beach Borel said.
"Being from Kansas there wasn't any
beaches around. Sometimes, when I
get time off from baseball, I go down
on the weekends. I like to go to
Wrightsville beach. I go with my
parents a lot
Going along with his mental
part of the game is his hard work
ethic. Borel will always be giving his
best in the classroom, weight room,
and especially on the field.
"I take pride at going at every-
"itll
Jamie Borel
thing hard Borel added. "In base-
ball, I try and make everyday as
though it were my last. I'm doing
everything as hard as I can so in the
future I don't look back and say 'If I
would have only gave a 100 percent
doing this I like to do everything as
hard as I can so I don't have any
regrets later on in my life. I try and
do that with everything
Being all the way from Kansas
and playing baseball during much
of the year, it is tough to see your
family as much as you would like to.
Jamie was very pleased that his fa-
ther got a job in Raleigh and he was
able to be closer to his family and
could go home whenever he wanted
to.
Borel is not only a baseball fan.
Heenjoys football as well and grow-
ing up near Kansas City made him a
die hard Chiefs fan. Jamie is a big
Joe Montana fan and his heart was
crushed when the Chiefs lost their
AFC Championship game to the
Buffalo Bills recently. He said he
still gets mad when he thinks about
it.
Borel is in his final year at ECU
and his getting ready to graduate
next fall with a degree in Health and
Fitness. East Carolina has a pro-
gram in that field and it coincided
with his choice to attend the school.
"I saw an opportunity for a de-
gree in health and fitness here, which
was a bonus, and everything worked
out nicely Borel said. "I liked the
program and I knew we would have
some winning teams. There have
been a lot of winning teams at ECU
and I wanted to carry on the tradi-
tion. I hope to keep it going this
year
1 f he does not get a chance to play
baseball after college, Borel has hopes
of staying close to the game he loves.
"Iliketotakethat(love)intocoach-
ingatthecollege level somedav Borel
said smiling. "I would like to teach the
mental part of the game
The Pirate baseball team has been
oneofthemost successfu 1 p rogra ms a t
ECU. As with any senior, Borel wants
this season to be the best and most
memorable to him.
"I would like to see the team get
some national recognition, which
means a lot of wins. That means every-
one is doing their job Borel said. "I
like to see a winning atmosphere If
you're having a winning vear, that
means everyone is doing well
Borel will be staring in center field
for the Pirates this year and will be the
leader in the outfield. The Pirates have
been better than thought of so far in
practice defensively so far, according
to Coach Overton. It looks as if the
outfield will be secure in the glove of
Borel.
"His defense gives a boost in the
outfield Overton said. "He can run
down balls in the gap as well as any
college center fielder. His defensive
play is sometimes overlooked by the
fact that he steals bases. Offensively,
he is what other teams call a 'pest

One of

"I like to be by myself or just
with a few people a lot Hartgrove
said. "When I'm around other
people, I'll laugh and have fun and
cut up and all, but I reallv like time
to myself
That's the way he likes to clas-
sify himself. The senior from
Asheboro, N.C. was a three-time
letterman in baseball for Asheboro
H.S and was selected to the 1990
All-State team. He also holds the
school record with a 0.46 career
earned run average.
Hartgrove is looking for con-
tinued success at ECU. He is close
to graduating and getting on with
his life after college.
"All I want to do right now is
graduate Hartgrove said. "I've
gone this far and I need to get my
diploma and graduate and get a
job. Baseball has been good to me,
it's been fun
"If it doesn't go any further
than this, it helped pay for four
years of school
Hartgrove said.
Baseball sure has
treated him right.
Last season he was 11-
2 in 20 appearances
and 15 starts. He was
named to the second-
team All-East.
Hartgrove hurled
eight complete games
last year and was
named as the CAA
tournament MVP af-
ter a relief appearance
and a complete game
victory.
Through three
seasons for the Pirates,
Hartgrove has com-
piled a 19-10 record
with seven saves. He
has struck 105 batters
in his career compared
to only 15 walks.
"Lyle Hartgrove

been through the East Carolina
University baseball program
coach Gary Overton said. "He is an
excellent role model for many

There's no question that that is his

"I try to lead by example on
the field Hartgrove said. "I'm not
asking everyone to be like me off
the field.
"They don't have to stay at

can cut up and all and have fun,
but when you're playing, it is time
to get serious. That's the percep-

Lyle also enjoys listening to
music and watching movies, but
he really loves to play cards. He
plays spades every Thursday night
with the fellows. He says it is just a
given.
He also calls himself a
Nintendo buff because he plays it
all the time.
When Hartgrove just started
out in high school he was the key
player on the football team because
he was so much bigger than all of
the other boys.
"When I broke my thumb in
the 10th grade, my baseball coach
told me it was time to make a
choice Hartgrove said. "There re-
ally wasn't that much of a choice to
be made.
Hartgrove made the right choice.

ECU pitcher Mike Sandbum does not

near the S.F. bay area. The city has a
unique location because he could drive
one direction and be at the warm beach
or drive in another direction for about
an hour and the temperature could
change another 30 degrees.
Sandbum came to ECU as a col-

You might think he is here on a
sports scholarship, but he has an aca-
demic scholarship. He likes to work
with computers and is majoring in
information processing. He is a junior
with academics, but only a sopho-
more on the field.
He made All-State playing sec-
ond base in high school and during
winter practice, Lamont was moved
back to the infield. This time, at prob-
ablv the most difficult position, short-
stop. He is trying to adjust to the
switch and shorten his throw to first
base.
"You want a leader at shortstop
Edwards said. "You want someone
that is going to keep the team up
When he is not throwing and hit-
ting baseballs he likes to fish. He really
doesn't know too many places around
Greenville, but when he goes home to
Clinton, N.C. one of the first things he
does is reach for his fishing pole.
Lamont is young and shows a
good amount of talent and it is prob-
abl v too early to see how far he can take
it. He had only 18 at-bats last season
and will be thrown into many more
this year.
'Hopefullv, 1 have some kind of
chance of going on to the next level
Edwards said. "If that chance doesn't
come I want to get a good job working
with computers
This vear's team has many differ-
ent plavers this year and Lamont is
very excited about this season.
"You could compare this year's
team to last season's Philadelphia
Phillies because of all of the different
personalities. I think it is going to be
verv exciting, not only to us, but the
coaches and fans as well
Last vear's Phillies were known
as outcasts and the guys on the team
didn't even look like they should be
plavmg baseball. They had long hair,
big bellies, and I-don't-care attitudes.
That team went on to the World Series.
Now the Pirate players do not
have long hair or look like truck driv-
ers, but they do possess many different
personalities. Maybe when the season
ends they can also look back and say
that they had a great season.

Sue Manahan enters into her 13th
season here at ECU with high hopes
of success. Af-

ter compiling a
record of 34-22
last season,
earning her first
ever post-season tournament bid,
Coach Manahan looks to be putting
together another talented team for
the 1994 season. The Lady Pirates
have recentlv hit the practice fields
ror the upcoming season, and so far,
all looks well.
"Practice is going pretty good so
far said Jenny Parsons, pitching
coach for the Pirates. "We are work-
ing real hard out there and preparing
for our first game on February 23
The Pirate infield will be with-
out the help of Cheryl Hobson, last
season's first baseman, and her sister
Stephanie, who played third base.
The rest of the infield is fairly experi-
enced, with senior Lisa Corprew
starting again at catcher. Corprew
will be looked at as a leader on the
field and a key batter in the Pirate
lineup. Corprew has been an impres-
sive hitter in the clutch during her
career with the Pirates, hitting eight
game-winning RBIs in the 1992 sea-
son alone.
The second base position will
probably be filled by sophomore Jolin
Eckman. Eckman won the Most Im-
proved Player award for the 1993
season, and tied the 1993 mark for
most doubles with seven.
Senior Sherri Allen enters her
third vear here at ECU after playing
a season at Towson State. Allen per-
formed well as the designated hitter
last vear, but will see the majc irity of
her playing time this season in right
field.
The designated hitter position
will be filled by junior Dana Crosby.
Crosbv was a solid hitter for Coach
Manahan last year. She played two
seasons at UNC-Wilmington before
transferring to East Carolina.
Leann Myers will play first base
this vear after seeing time at third
last season. The senior from King,
NC. came to ECU in the fall of 1992
after playing at UN'C-Asheville.
Sophomore Heather Smith was
a very versatile player for the Lady
Pirates last year. Smith started some
preseason games at shortstop and
saw some regular-season playing
time at shortstop in 1993, the posi-
tion which she will be vying for along
with redshirt freshman Sharolyn
Strickland, who was slowed by a
broken ankle last season.
One pla ver who will certainly be
looked to for leadership this season
is senior Georgeann Wilke. Wilke is
one of the Ladv Pirates' finest ath-
letes, and was named
to the UNC All-Tour-
nament team in 1993.
She started in 54 of 56
games last season,
and won both the
1993 Female
TexasGulf Outstand-
ing Scholar-Athlete
of the Year award and
the GTE District III
Academic All-
America team for her
performance in the
classroom.
The center field
position will be filled
bv senior Michelle
Ward. Ward returns
this season as the
nation's leading base
stealer for 1993 with
73. She also led the
Ladv Pirates in bat-
ting average, hitting
.450. Ward was named to the UNC
All-Tournament team, the Frost Cut-
lerv All-Tournament team, and was
named Most Valuable Player at the
Lady Pirate Classic.
She earned First Team honors in
the All-South Region, and for the
EC AC All-Star Team. Ward will likely
be an All-American candidate this
season.
Some newcomers who should
see plaving time this year include
junior Dana Lewis, who transferred
here after playing two seasons at
Chowan college. Lewis will probably
see time at either first base or out-
field.
Another new player that will
help in the outfield is freshman
Theresa Fischer from Farmingdale,
NY. Freshman Dana Hulings and
sophomore Mary Dunlap will help
out at the catcher position.
The pitching staff will be the
weakest part of the Pirates defense.
Manahan will look to two freshman,
Teryn Ford and Jill Rowlands, along
with sophomore TraciePodratsky to
take control on the mound.
Coach Manahan will dip into
her well-stocked pool of talent hop-
ing to put together another winning
season in 1994.

ence and an experienced team to back

the upcoming

head-on.
Manahan
leadthewomen's
softball team to a winning season last
vear. During the off-season, Manahan
was coaching as well. Over the summer
she traveled to Russia with Athletes in
Action, a group that involves athletes
leading seminarsabout their sport, play-
ing games with the local teams from the
host country, while sharing their Chris-
tian faith with the people that they play.
During the Christmas break, Manahan
coached a team that went to Guate-
mala.
"Thev came from all over, and the
plavers that went toGuatemala with us
were mainlv from California says
Manahan.
Manahan's team that went to Rus-
sia had a 9-1 record. Manahan attrib-
uted the one loss to her shortstop who
"was trving to be polite and ate some
onions, which she was allergic to. She
had to sit out the game because of that,
and we were without one of our best players
Also, while in Russia, Manahan had the opportunity to be
a plaver-coach, because one of the team members got injured
right before the trip.
"It was moredifficultbeinga player andacoachat the same
time recalls Manahan.
The team that she traveled with to Guatemala earned a 6-
1 record. "The loss there she said, "came from the fact that
everv team, no matter how good, will always have a day when
nothing seems to go tl ieir way. This is what happened; the other
team was reall von top of their game that day Manahan's team
also had a chance to play against theGuatemalan national team.
"Traveling is something that I have found that I like and I
want to be able to it more often. With Athletes in Action, I got to
travel as well as present the Gospel in very unique settings and
wavs Manahan said. "For example, in Guatemala, we had a
talented group that could sing; so we sang together one day in
a park
Manahan started coaching softball at Douglas Freeman
High School in Virginia. She coached there for seven years
before coming to ECU. During that time, she led her team to
several district championships, one regional and one state
championship. She began her coaching career here as a gradu-
ate student at ECU about 13 years ago.
Manahan has definitely earned the respect of her team.
Jennv Parsons, an East Carolina pitcher under Manahan for the
last four seasons, is now the pitching coach of the team.
She summed up her memories of plaving for Manahan
best when she said, "I enjoyed playing for her. She is a great
motivator and she always knows what to say to get the best out
of the players

Since the Lady Pirates are not in
a particular conference, they must
look to multi-team tournaments for
most of their games. After opening
up the season in Greenville against
Barton on Feb. 23, the Pirates will
host the Lady Pirate Invitational on
the 25th, when they will play Penn
State, Eastern Michigan, Radford,
Robert Morris, Campbell and the
University of Maryland-Baltimore
County. The Lady Pirates will also
host a round-robin tournament on
March 5-6 against in-state rivals
UNC-VVilmington and UNC-Greens-
boro, along with Canisius and
Purdue.
East Carolina has its first major
tournament in Tampa, Fl. on March
11-13. The Lady Pirates will face top-
ranked teams such as Texas A&M
and UCLA, as well as teams from
around the country such as Florida
State, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, UNC,
Notre Dame, UVa and Oklahoma
State.
ECU will then return to Green-
ville for much of the middle part of
March. After games against Rutgers
and GMU, the Hampton Inn
Shoney's Lady PirateClassic will take
place from March 18-20. They will
remain in Greenville that week to
play Bucknell and Colgate on the
22nd and 23rd.
ECU will be on the road nearly
the entire month of April. The Pirates
play at the Tar Heel Invitational from
April 8-10, then travel to Chatta-
nooga, Tennessee to play in the Frost
Cutlery Tournament, where they will
play against Furman, Texas A&M,
Georgia Tech and South Florida.
The Lady Pirates will play their
last home game of the season against
North Carolina on April 26 at 3 p.m.
The final tourney of the regular sea-
son will be the Virginia Classic in
Charlottesville, Va
"Our 1994 schedule is strong and
competitive. It will put us in position
to be ranked. The April 8-10 UNC
Tournament is big, and the April 15-
17 Frost Cutlery Tournament is tre-
mendous. At the April 30th Virginia
Tournament, there is the possibility
that we could play two nationally-
ranked teams Coach Manahan said.
Tracy Podratsky will be a key player on the '94 pitching staff.

players that all have a legitimate
chance at starting, but sophomore
Lamont Edwards, a former two-
sport athlete who quit football to
pursue a baseball career, has the
edge and is headed for the starting
lineup. If Edwards starts, he will be
backed up by senior Frank Fedak
and junior Chad Puckett.
Rick Britton, a transfer from
Florida, will be the opening day-
third baseman, and brings with him
a bad ly needed dose of power to the
ECU lineup. He hit .266 wi th 8 home
runs in 46 games for the Gators in
1993. Puckett will also be ready to
take over at third if needed.
Starting in left field for the Pi-
rates will once again be sophomore
Jason Head. He will be joined in the
ECU outfield by Jamie Borel in cen-
ter and either Kyle Billingsley or
Brian Yerys in right field.
"A player like Borel is what we
call a 'flyer There is no question
that his speed is his best asset
Overton said. "His on-base percent-
age will predicate a lot of our run-
ning game this year
The designated hitter role will
be filled by senior Chad Triplett.
He will be backed up by Billingsley
or Yerys, whomever isn't starting
in right field.
"If we have a player who is a
'jack-of-all-trades it's Chad
FACES
Triplett Overton said. "The only
position that he hasn't played for
us is pitcher, and he could do that
Yerys joined the Pirates during
the winter break, transferring from
Louisburg where he led Louisburg
to the Junior College World Series.
He was also named a two-time all-
conference player and all-regional
selection.
All in all, Coach Overton has
put together a squad that is deter-
mined to repeat as CAA champions,
a goal that is definitely attainable.
He has a balanced roster to work
with, and a historv of excellent
coaching behind him. Look for the
Pirates to be in the title hunt in May.
Continued from page 3
pitching staff this season is sopho-
more Mike Jacobs. Jacobs is a two-
sport athlete who is taking the
spring off from football in order to
concentrate on baseball.
He is capable of being a pro
prospect, for at 6-5, 225 pounds, he
possesses both size and, without
question, the strongest arm on the
team.
He throws at better velocity
than any other pitcher on the staff,
and will be Overton's primary
closer. A freshman who will see
limited action this season is pitcher
Brent Billingsley. Billingsley comes
from Chino Hills, Ca and possesses
a good breaking-ball. Brent is joined
by big brother junior Kyle
Billingsley, who transfers here
from Chaffey Junior College. Kyle
will be vying for the right field po-
sition, and could also see time at
the designated hitter position.
Senior Rick Britton transferred
to ECU from the University of
Florida. Britton will be the starting
at third-base for the Pirates.
Britton's bat will likely place him at
the third or fourth spot in the lineup,
opposite of Brian Yerys.
Ryan Kraft is a freshman
pitcher with a lot of promise. He
will see some playing time on the
hill this season, probably in a relief
role.
Dan Forson is a left-handed
pitcher who walked on to the team
this season after playing JLCO ball
in Florida. Forson will not see much
playing time this season.
Josh Constable is a freshman
who will probably be redshirted this
season. He is a hard-working
player, who wiil use this season to
develophisskillsand try tobecome
a better player.
The newcoming players will
hopefully add strength to an already
tough CAA-powerhouse Pirate
baseball team.
Jacobs was also recruited for
basketball as well. He received filler
letters from both Duke and Virginia.
The main reason Jacobs decided
to play college baseball was an inci-
dent that occurred over the summer
of 1993.
He went to a professional trv-
out camp with the Pittsburgh Pi-
rates at Five County Stadium in
Zebulon, NIC. He was not taking
the tryout too seriously because he
was just going with a friend who
asked him to go.
"1 performed pretty well
Jacobs said. "The scout told me that
I had the potential to be a profes-
sional baseball player and that I
should look into pursuing this. I
would be crazy not to
"After seeing the results and
hearing the scout tell me I had real
potential and he told me I could
only help himself by playing here
(ECU) Jacobs said.
"I'll be able to be drafted this
year if I have a good season Jacobs
said. "They said they would prob-
ably take a real late -round pick even
if I didn't play, and I could only
help myself by playing
This will be his first season as a
college baseball player and there are
great hopes that he will be a quality-
pitcher at this level.
Jacobs' fastball was clocked at
a high of 91 m.p.h. over the summer
and said he was averaging around
88 m.p.h when he was not even in
shape. He will probably be looked
at by Coach Overton as the main
man out of the bullpen in a closer
role.
As do many other athletes
when they are growing up, Jacobs
seems to just be interested in the
sport that is currentlv in season.
He had no real preference when he
was young of either being an NFL
quarterback or a major league
pitcher.
Jacobs came here as a fresh-
man in 1991 from Smithfield, NI.C.
and is currently majoring in his-
tory.
He grewup in Smithfield play-
ing sports in his neighborhood and
would like to go on and be a coach
for whatever sport comes around.
Jacobs likes golfing a lot and
would even consider becoming a
golf coach. Jacobs would prefer to
teach at the high school level be-
cause he could still have time to spend
with the family that he desires to
have.
Sports, sports and more sports
is what Jacobs loves. Besides play-
ing sports, he also watches sports
on the TV as much as possible. His
favorite show is ESPN's
Sportscenter and turns it on every
morning as soon as he wakes up.
"Da, Da, Da, Da, Da, Da
Jacobs sounds off laughing as he
sings the show's popular jingle.

to step up their indi-
vidual and team
jrlav to be competi-
tive in the CAA.
Freshman All-
America team mem-
Rated the fourth
toughest conference
in the nation, the
CAA-championship
race will be wide
open.
ber Sean Casey was UR's top hitter in 1993, and
he will once again play first base. Senior Jeff
Dausch (.327,6, 35) has moved from left field to
second base, where he will be an even day player.
Experience will be plentiful in the Spider
outfield. Senior RF Tom Scioscia (.323 4,37) and
junior CF Mark Budzinski will return, with
Budzmski also moving to first base in late-inning
situation. They will be backed up by juniors
Gerald Dorman and Scott Mealey.
The Richmond pitching staff is adequate.
There are no superstars, but each member of
their staff is capable of pitching in any situation.
The staff is led by senior Wayne Hoy (5-3, 3.17)
and sophomore Bobby St. Pierre (6-2,4.09).
The biggest challenge for Atkins will be to
keep his team close in ball games throughout
their difficult schedule. The Spiders' bats will tell
the storv throughout the season. They could fin-
ish in upper half of the CAA pack in 1994.
William & Mary, according to Head Coach
Jim Farr, will be in every game we play
Although they play a demanding schedule, the
Tribe could easily im-
?????? proveonlastyear's24-
19-1 record.
Pitching looks to
be the only area where
W&M is inexperi-
enced, yet the staff is
still good. Their rota-
tion is led by junior
right-hander Mike
Ragsdale and south-
paw senior Erik
Sandvig, who com-
bined to go 11-7 for the
Tribe in 1993. Behind
them, the rotation is

shaky. The strong W&M bullpen hopes to offset
anv problems due to the inexperience of the
starters, and Coach Farr will look to closer Adam
Butler (2-3,2.92,4 saves) to be his "ace in the hole
The Tribe offense is an intense mix of speed
and power. William & Mary finished ninth in the
counrrv in stolen bases last season, and will run
early and often in '94. Meanwhile, Second Team
All-CAA member Mike Ruberti hopes to add on
his nine home run, 46 RBI performance of 1993.
He will be backed in the lineup by shortstop
Shawn Knight and Greg Zulli, who each batted
over .315.
William & Mary is the team on the rise in the
CAA. If they stay healthy, look for the Tribe to
drasticallv improve on last season's record and
possibly make a run at the conference title.
