Gamecocks Rally

A change of venue to Columbia
was on no immediate help as USC's
Gamecocks turned back the Cavs in
the ninth inning on Saturday, 3-2.
Two walks and a single by Ron
Delmer broke a 2-2 tie and pinned a
loss, on Rick Spigone.

Again it was a case of Virginia's
failure to hit as the Wahoos made
only three hits off. Al Hillard,
owner of a 1-3 record and high
ERA at game time. A two-run single
by Billy Hall in the third inning was
the extent of the Cavalier offense.
Twelve Virginians were struck out.

The Cavs' losses cost them
second place in the ACC as they
slipped behind Clemson, which now
has the same outside chance as
Virginia to win, and North Carolina
State, now 9-5 and finished with
baseball for the year.
