Co-Captain Bob Rannigan Heads Up Tight Virginia Secondary

Aerial Defense Hopes To Have Field Day Against Duke's Leo Hart

Cavalier starters Dave Wyncoop
and Rick Moschel sustained injuries
in last Saturday's loss and will not
start in this weekend's game.

Tailback Wyncoop sprained an
ankle early in the game when he
was caught in the slot trying to go
down under a Cavalier punt, and
saw spotty duty the rest of the
game. Head Coach George Black-
bun says Wyncoop has looked fair
practising in sweats but, despite
three treatments a day, the ankle is
swollen badly and he has only an
"outside chance" to see action this
Saturday.

Second-year man Jim Lacey will
replace Wyncoop in the lineup.
Mike Sutt, a third-year man from
Shamokin, Pennsylvania, has been
switched from defensive back to
tailback to give the position some
depth.

Co-captain Moschel suffered a
separated shoulder when he fielded
a short Clemson kickoff and was
knocked to the ground. He is out
for two to four weeks. His position
on the offense will be taken by Jim
Carrington.

Offensive tackle Rick Kotulak,
one of the few veteran offensive
linemen, also sprained an ankle in
last weekend's action, but he is
expected to be a hundred per cent
by Saturday.

Ken Campbell, Cavalier offensive
coordinator, gave the progress
report on the Clemson loss and this
weekend's upcoming Duke game
yesterday. In it the Virginia coach
gave the why and how of last
Saturday's loss.

"This past weekend...we beat
ourselves...we made too many errors,
not of the physical nature but
of a mental nature...possibly we
had too many young ballplayers.
There was no one in particular we
could blame...no certain segment
contributed to the loss."

Overall Coach Campbell said
"the effort was good," but there
was a "poor offensive showing in
general."

Comparing Clemson with Duke
he said "Duke presents an entirely
different problem. They have a
stunting, jumping defense...we will
expect losses. But if we can pick up
a stunt every now and then we
should be able to break off a long
gain."

Continuing on about this weekend,
Mr. Campbell stated "...our
boys are anxious, they're looking
forward to playing Duke.

"After looking at the Clemson
game's films there is no question in
the coaches' and players' minds
that we could have won, and this
feeling has carried over to the Duke
game. But Duke, which suffered a
similar 27-20 loss to ACC title
contender South Carolina, wants to
win the game as much as we do."
