ROANOKE — It wasn't supposed to be this easy, but Pulaski
County continued to put up astronomical numbers in Roanoke
Friday evening as it wallopped
Patrick Henry 45-6:
The victory gave the Cougars a
third consecutive Roanoke Valley District championship and a
berth in the Northwest Region
playoffs that also carries the
home-field advantage along with
it.
.
The 9-0, 3-0 Cougars broke all
the school rushing records just a
week ago at Northside with 512
yards. All that was washed away
against the Patriots as Pulaski
County rushed for 534 yards, establishing a new record for rushing and total offense in a single
game.
The Cougars found success
with so many runners that even
with gaining so many yards as a
team no individual gained 100.
It was never a contest. Pulaski
County scored on its first possession on the third play of the
game, and on PH's first possession the Cougar defense made it
"-plain that Shannon , Taylor
would not have a record-setting
night at quarterback for the
Patriots as he did a season ago.
On the third snap following
the kickoff, Carl Lewis skirted
the left side for 56 yards to the
end zone. Following the kickoff,
on PH's first play, Taylor went
back to pass from his own 21 and
Cougar Randy Dunnigan drilled
him on the 14. That set the tone
for yet another one-sided Cougar
win, the number one ranked
team in the state by The Associated Press and the 15th ranked
team nationally by USA Today.
"I really, really like my team,"
said PCHS head coach Joel
Hicks in a happy locker room. "I
thought we did a terrific job defensively. We got good pressure
oh Taylor, we stunted from time
to time to add to it, and our secondary did a super job covering
the PH receivers. When you're
under pressure and you have
nobody open to throw to, the
quarterback has a problem."
Hicks' program has now
posted nine RVD championships
in his 15 years at the helm, and
this one was just as satisfying as
the first eight.
"The toughest thing that you
have to do as a football team is to
be picked first before the season
ever starts and finish there. It's
much easier to be picked third
and win it. I think the chamStaff photo by Donnto Walla

Holyfield out to prove something to himself
LAS VEGAS (AP) — Evander Holyfield tried to prove
something to critics and fans
alike. He failed.
Now he intends to prove
.something to himself— that he
can outbox Riddick Bowe and
become a heavyweight champion again. .
.
"I can redeem myself," said
Holyfield, a 4-1 underdog in the
scheduled 12-round fight Saturday night outdoors at Caesars Palace. . • • ' . . •
' .
.After losing to Bowe on
points last Nov. 13, Holyfield
announced he was retiring.
"I sat around and started
thinking I can beat this guy,"
Holyfield said. "I fought the
wrong kind of fight. I put pressure on myself. So I had myself
checked out and I- have no
health problems." :
This time, he says, he has no
mental hangups either.
'The first time I made a lot of
mistakes," Holyfield said. "I
trained right for the fight physicaliy, but it was not like fighting Mike Tyson (a fight that fell
through when Tyson was in-
jured in training). People didn't
care that much.
\
"I went in there with the attitude just to get it over with arid
to show people I can knock out
a big man. I couldn't."
Critics haye long charged
that Holyfield was a built-up,
rather than a natural-heavyweight.
.Holyfield, who weighed 205
pounds, couldn't hurt Bowe,
235, while he was badly hurt by
Bowe in the 10th round and

CHARLOTTE, N,C. (AP) —\
Without Michael Jordan, opening night took a little longer for
the Chicago Bulls.
The three-time NBA champions showed they could still be
a solid team without their superstar, nearly winning in regulation. But Johnny Newman's
28-footer at the end of regulation
forced an extra period before
Horace Grant's put-back with
two-tenths of a second left in
overtime gave the Bulls
opener Friday night.
Although . Charlotte was
picked in preseason as the possible successors to Chicago as the
best team in the Central Division, the Bulls showed their

seven shots and nine of his first

• A cold front is expected to blow
through Pitt Stadium before the
kickoff Saturday, accompanied
by possible snow showers, 15-25
mph wind gusts, temperatures
in the mid-30s and a wind chill
far below that.
No wonder Miami (6-1) has
packed cold-weather gear —
parkas, thermal shirts, tights
and gloves more appropraite for
an Arctic expedition. The Hurricanes also have arranged for hotair blowers behind their bench.
That's an encouraging sign for
Pitt (2-6).
"They're not going to be used
to the cold and snow,, and maybe
they will be looking past us,"
said running back Curtis Mar-.
tin, the Big East Conference's
second-leading rusher.
The Hurricanes, who figure to
get closer to the top and a possible 1-2 showdown by winning
the rest of their games, won't be
guilty of taking the lowly Panthers or Rutgers lightly because
the conference title probably will
be on the line Nov. 20 at West
Virginia, Erickson said.
"What's interesting is we could
be 8-1 going to West Virginia,
and if we lose there, or lose one
of these next two games, we
don't win our conference," he
said. "All of a sudden, you go into

the Cleveland Indians, the
mourning resumes.

American
League
team's starcrossed year
took another tragic
turn when a
truck driven by left- Young
handed pitcher Cliff Young
crashed into a tree Thursday
night near his hometown of
Willis, Texas, killing him instantly.
Young is the third Cleveland
pitcher to die in an accident
this year. Steve Olin and Tim
Crews died and Bob Ojeda was
injured in a March 22 boating
accident in central Florida on
the team's only day off of spring
training.
"I had that same heartwrenching feeling of sorrow
and helplessness," general
manager John Hart said Friday. "We are looking forward to
calendar year 1993 going away.
You just shake your head and
you wonder, why is this happening?"
Young, 29, was on his way to
pickup a relative from a dance
class about 9:30 p.m. when his
four-wheel-drive truck veered
off a winding road, hit a tree
and flipped over. The accident
occurred between the towns of
Willis and Conroe, about an
hour north of Houston.

He became a free agent at

Stat Sheet
Shayne Graham kicked a 33
yard field goal for a 24-0 lead.
PH was stopped again after
three downs and continued to
suffer from an horrendous kicking game as Richard Mason's
punt traveled only from his own
15 to the PH 38. Three plays
later C.A. Burkes popped clean
up the gat to score from 35 yards
out, and the Cougars led 31-0 at
the half. PCHS had already
totalled 265 yards rushing in two
quarters.
The Cougars began a move on
its first possession of the third
quarter, but was thwarted by a
fumble. PH took over on its own
25. Nine plays and 45 yards in
penalties against Pulaski
County later, and the Patriots
had a first and goal at the Cougar seven. On the next snap,
Taylor threw into the end zone
and it was promptly intercepted

On second and eight from the six

hip flexor injury was supposed to
hamper his ability to run, faked
into the line then turned and
sped 94 yards' down th'e left hash
to the end zone. Graham connected on his fifth conversion kick
opposite directions Friday night
as Patrick Ewing scored 30
points and the Knicks opened
'the NBA season with a 111-108
victory over the Boston Celtics.
The loss ended Boston's streak
of 14 straight victories in home
openers.
and the Cougars were up 38-0.
From that point on it was just
a matter of getting the game
over arid the Cougars celebrated
on the sidelines. Happiness
reigned as the players dumped a
cooler full of ice water over
Hicks' head moments before they
hoisted him on their shoulders
and carried him to the middle of
the field.
PH managed 365 yards of total
offense but much of them proved
to be meaningless, and most of
them came in the fourth quarter
against Cougar reserves. The
Patriots got on the Scoreboard
.when reserve quarterback
Ro'sheen Graham passed 15
yards to Eugene Cook with 3:32
left to play. The two-point conversion attempt failed.

ByROBGLOSTER
"
BOSTON — The passer outdid the scrambler as Boston College beat 25tn-ranked Virginia
Tech 48-34 Saturday !in a Big
East game.
Glenn Foley, who runs Boston
College's pro-style offense, threw
for 448 yards and three touchdowns. Maurice DeShazo, the
multi-talented Virginia Tech
quarterback, • was held to just
174 yards passing and was
intercepted twice.
Foley, 21-of-29 while throwing
for the fourth-highest total in
school history, had touchdown
passes of 10 and 68 yards to Ivan
Boyd and a 35 -yard scoring pa'ss
to Brent Gibbons.
"I've never seen a quarterback
who puts the ball on the money
where, if his receivers can't catch
the ball, nobody will," DeShazo
said of Foley.
Foley, who wasn't intercepted,
has 16 touchdown passes and
just two interceptions in his last
six games, all victories for Boston College (6-2, 4-1 Big East).
He had plenty of time to look for
receivers Saturday behind an
offensive line that has allowed
just five sacks this season.
"If he has all the time in the
world, he's a good quarterback,"
said defensive back Stacy Henley of Virginia Tech (6-3, .3-3).
"And today he had the time."
Foley has averaged 352 passing yards in his last five games.
He has 2,374 passing yards this
season, making him the only
Boston College quarterback to
.surpass 2,000 yards passing in
each of his four seasons.
"We put it all together today
on offense. When we're playing
well, we're going to score points,"
Foley said. "It's always fun when
you're playing well and you're
winning and you're driving the
ball down the field. It doesn't get
any better."

Tech's DeShazo: We had these guys'
By HOWARD ULMAN
AP Sports Writer .
BOSTON — Being the country's second-rated passer doesn't mean much
to Maurice DeShazo. He doesn't worry
about his team's bowl chances. He figures those distinctions will come if his
team plays well.
Virginia Tech didn't do that well
enough and lost Saturday to Boston
College 48-34.
_
. "It's hard emotionally to just "even
think about this one," he said. "We
had these guys. We thought we were a
better football team, but it didn't
show; They played better."
The loss dropped 25th-ranked Virginia Tech to 6-3 overall and 3-3 in the
Big East, still in contention for a bowl
bid/Boston College (6-2, 4-1) can virtually clinch a postseason appearance
by winning next Saturday at Pittsburgh.
Saturday's loss makes Virginia
Tech's next game,, at home against
Syracuse, critical. The Hokies wind up
the regular season Nov. 20 at Virginia.
"Bowls are going to take care of
themselves," DeShazo said. "If you
start worrying, about bowls, you're going to get beat these next two games."
DeShazo, the seventh-rated passer
in the Big East last season when the
Hokies'were 2-8-1, entered the game
trailing only Jake Kelchner of West
Virginia in the national rankings.
"It doesn't really affect you at all,"
DeShazo said. "Even when I was
number one for two weeks I didn't
even know it."
On Saturday, he completed 11 of 22
passes for 174 yards, ran for 71 yards
and a touchdown and hurt the Eagles
with his scrambling. But he threw two
interceptions and only one touchdown
after passing for four interceptions
and 19 touchdowns in hi& first eight
' games.
-'-il—was pretty impressed with DeShazo," Virginia Tech coach Frank
Beamer said. "He kept us in the ballgame. It hurt us when Antonio Free?
man went out of the game early.
Please see DESHAZO, page A9
CHARLOTTESVILLE — Virginia's coaching
staff issued a call for help Saturday when the. Cavaliers were trailing 23-point underdog Wake
Forest at halftime.
Tailback Jerrod Washington didn't have to be
asked twice.
:
"I'm a senior and I'm one of the captains," he
said. Tm supposed to be one; of the leaders. I was
determined to make something happen."
He did just that, picking up the slack for a
struggling quarterback Symmion Willis and rallying No. 21 Virginia to a 21-9 victory.
Washington ran for 133 yards and two touchdowns in the second half as Virginia (7-2, 5-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) defeated the Demon Deacons for the 10th consecutive time.
"He really showed us something. He ran the ball
as well as I've seen him run," Willis said of Washington, who had broken the 100-yard mark only
once previously this season.
Washington finished with 148 yards rushing
and 23 receiving on a day when Willis, the ACC's
top-rated passer, had his worst performance of the
season. Willis, who came in with just five interceptions all year, was picked off on four of Virginia's
first seven possessions.
'You know you're going to have a bad day at
some point," Willis said, "but I never thought it
would get that bad."
Wake Forest (2-7, 1-5) played well for nearly
three quarters but lost its third straight game.
"We are moving in the right direction," first-year
coach Jim Caldwell said.
At halftime, the Demon Deacons were up 9-7
and looked as if they were about to send Virginia to
its third loss in four games. Wake Forest quarterback Jim Kemp had completed 14 of 19 passes, including 10 in a row- at one stretch, and the Demon
Deacons had rushed for 116 yards and intercepted
Willis three times.
:
Virginia coach George Welsh said he was fairly
brief in his halftime remarks.
"I didn't say much. I wanted them to say something," he said. "I was tired of talking."
Offensive coordinator Tom O'Brien and several
players made brief speeches.
"The locker room was dead. It looked like we had
died," O'Brien said. "We just asked somebody to

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (AP) —
The nation's longest unbeaten
streak ended at 31 games Saturday as Louisiana State capitalized on Alabama-mistakes to
upset the No. 5 Crimson Tide
17-13,
Alabama (7-1-1, 4-1-1 Southeastern Conference) was a more
than three-touchdown favorite
over LSU (4-5, 3-4). But four second-half interceptions led to
two LSU touchdowns and killed
what could have been gametying scores as Alabama had its
hopes crushed for repeating as
national champion.
It was coach Curley.Hallman's
biggest victory yet in three
seasons at LSU, which upset Ole
Miss 19-17 last- week. The
Bengal Tigers hadn't beaten
Alabama since 1988, also at
Bryant-Denny Stadium.
Alabama hadn't lost since
Sept. 14, 1991, a 35-0 defeat at
Florida. The only, blemish since
then was a 17-17 tie with Tennessee earlier this year. „""
Alabama went through three

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Wisconsin students didn!t rush the
field after Saturday's game
against Ohio State, and tight security wasn't the only reason.
There was little to celebrate
after the third-ranked Buckeyes
blocked a 33-yard field goal attempt with one second left to
preserve a 14-14 tie and severely
damage the Rose Bowl hopes of
the 15th-ranked Badgers.

Patrick Henry entered the
game with a six-game winning
streak, and had allowed just 19
points in those six wins. That's a
little on the impressive side too.
But it was quickly forgotten
when Pulaski County re-broke
all the records it had set a week
earlier at Northside. The Cougars ran for 534 yards, almost 12
yards per carry, and for the second straight week did not punt.

The 1993 volleyball season came to an end for
Pulaski County Wednesday in Roanoke. The.Cougar spikers were downed 15-6, 15-4 in the best
two-out-of-three games by William Fleming in the
first round of the Roanoke Valley District volleyball tournament held at Patrick Henry High
School.
•
The fifth-seeded Cougars connected on 95 percent of their serves behind the efforts of Becky
Bishop who went five-for-five and scored four of
the Cougars' six points in game one.
"We were flat on our feed and couldn't capitalize
on our great serves. We didn't talk and we just
looked tired. I expected it to be a better match, but
Fleming was serving great too," noted PCHS coach
Regina Cecil.
Despite going 0-9 on the season, the Cougars
landed two on post season All-district teams.
Senior Cheryl Cox was named to the All-RVD
first team. Sophomore teammate Rochelle Quesenberry was voted to the second team. Both are
setters for the PCHS squad.

the perfect example. Not a single
running back gained 100 and six
different players scored. Let's
here it for the team; Andre

95, Tim Kimbrough 94, C.A.
Burkes 74, Carl Lewis 68, and
Eric Webb 62. An just think,
Virginia Tech thought they had
a stable of stallions a few
seasons ago. The Cougars possessed the football five times in
the first half against PH and
scored four touchdowns and
kicked a field goal.
Pulaski County continues to
try and convince those all
around the Old Dominion that it
has the most consistent football
program in this state. It has now
won three consecutive Roanoke
Valley District championships,
five of the last six, and nine of
the last 15.
Sure, there's a final game
against Cave Spring in a few
days and an upset could result in
a tie for district honors, but the
best thing for Cave Spring to do
is stay at home and keep their
pets indoors too.
The Cougars have won so
much over the past 15 years,
some must wonder when the fire
will dim, when will this program
and this community get tired of
winning. At this point, there are
absolutely no signs of that. The
only goal is to keep the tradition
going...to keep winning, to keep
trying to convince this entire
state that Pulaski County has
the best football program.
The fewest points this team
has scored in a game is 24
against William Fleming. The
closest game it has played was at
B.C. Glass, 35-14, but it was 35-0
going into the fourth quarter.
The Cougars have scored over 30
points in a game eight times,
over 40 six times, over 50 three
times, and over 60 once, and if
not for the kindness of the coaching staff, might could have .
scored in the 90s about three
times unless leg cramps had
stopped them.
But this team doesn't talk
much. It doesn't tell everybody
how great it is...another refreshing trait. All it does is convince
more and more people each Fri-
Webb. "I thought we might be in
a track meet. I thought Taylor
might be a little more of a problem, but we were more prepared
for him than last year. I thought
they would be a better defensive
team too. I can't believe we got
this many yards again."
As for the state playoffs, Webb
said, "We're going back and we'll
be ready."
Larry Newcomb had two quar~terback sacks and batted down
one of Taylor's passes.
"This is the best team we've
had, but I thought it would be at
least a little harder to beat PH
than this. I'm proud we've won
another RVD title, and going
back to the playoffs. We had a
good pass rush, and the secondary did a good job. They weren't

on the varsity and we've won
them all, and we even won it '
when I was ori the freshmen
team. This is as sweet as all the
rest of them. I don't see Pulaski
County ever getting tired of
winning championships.
"I guess we're going to run up
against some good teams in the
playoffs.. .I'm sure we are, but
we'll get ready," added Dunnigan.
"I didn't think it would be this
easy to contain them," said Eric

We want to get it done again."
"We had a good plan," said
head coach Joel Hicks. "Our
offensive line did a real good job,
our secondary covered very well,
and our up front people got pressure on Taylor. Our backs continue to run hard. It was the
same old story...a little tailback...a little fullback...a little
z-back, and so on.
"I was worried about Andre,
but we decided to let him go one
time. He wanted to run oh it, and
I guess we needed to see what
would happen. It looked pretty
good from where I was standing," laughed Hicks.
Hicks has been at the helm for
all nine RVD football championships at PCHS, and he's gotten a

their minds they were going to
wear them out. We came down

win the district championship,

Eaves.
"I was supposed to contain
Taylor on the corner," said Brian
Redd. 'They held me a little bit,

of attitude.you must have if you
have great aspirations. They
don't care who gets the credit as
long as the job gets done. This is
a fine football team, and it's the
perfect example of what the
word team really means," said
Hicks.
