Last Wednesday, the Georgia men's and women's cross
country teams left campus with high hopes They were bound
for Baton Rouge. La , and were to compete in the 47th
Southeastern Conference Championships Despite had odds,
the Dogs were determined to come home winners
Unfortunately, the Dogs came home disappointed Besides
a fifth-place team for the Lady Dogs. Georgia was
unable tocapitalize on even its smallest goal
The men finished in seventh place with 188 points, well
behind the 4B of winner Tennessee It was the ninth time in
the past 11 years that the Vols have claimed the cham
pionship
Florida, as expected, finished right on Tennessee's heels
with S3 points, followed by Ole Miss with 105 LSU placed
fourth with 109 points followed closely by Auburn with 110
The rest of the SEC teams were Alabama, 151; Georgia, 18H;
Mississippi State, 203; Kentucky. 215; and Vanderbilt, 297
The biggest disappointment for Georgia was the per
formance of junior Sean Nicholl Nicholl, a two-time All-SEC
runner and a third-place finisher in last year's cham
pionship, was only able to finish 16th at 24:56 The finish
forced Nicholl to miss earning All-SEC status for the third
consecutive year by only one place
Tennessee's Dour Tolson. who finished two seconds ahead
of Nicholl in the 1983 meet, won the individual title with a
course record time of 23:59 Tolson was followed by team
mate Rickey Pittman who crossed at 24:07
Other Georgia men's finishers included John Stein, 27th,
25 31; Jason Tamblyn, 42nd, 26:06; Sean Dailey, 48th, 26:41;
Shelley Cranford, 55th, 27:24; Jon Burton. 61st, 27:54; and
Tom Briggs. 68th, 31:20
The Lady Dogs fared slightly better, finishing fifth among
eight teams Florida, the favorite going into the meet, won
the women's crown with 41 points Alabama finished a sur
prising second place with 54 points followed by Tennessee,
67; Kentucky, 87, Georgia, 144; Auburn, 147; LSU, 167; and
Vanderbilt, 207
Florida's Shelly Steely was the individual champion at
15:55, nearly a minute ahead of her closest pursuer, Ten
nessee sAlisa Harvey, who crossed at 16:42
Georgia's top women's finisher was sophomore Susan
Rice, 16th at 17:55 Other Lady Bulldog finishers were
freshman Michele Eitapence, 21st, 18:17; Jennifer Topinka,
30th, 18:40, Lianne Home. 37th, 19:20; Beth Cannon, 40th,
19:30; Loretta Sineon, 41st, 19:33; and Stephanie Crawford,
43rd.19 38
"We just had a bad day, "Georgia coach Jon Fox said "We
came out flat and weren't able to recover We re real
disappointed about our performance There's not a whole lot
you can say about it.
"The conditions were terrible but everybody had to run on
the same course and really, the limes of the top finishers
were very good.”
The Georgia teams will try to improve their showing when
they travel to Greenville, S.C., to compete in the NCAA
District III regional meet Saturday
Pups jumble game to Marion, 23-6
By DEAN LOONEY
Rrd and Black AkiHUM Sports Editor
Georgia junior varsity coach Mike
Castronis said his team doesn't have
many excuses to explain its 23-6 loss to
Marion Military Institute at a rain-
soaked Sanford Stadium Sunday af
temoon
"We don't have a lot of alibis,"
Castronis said after being whipped by
the Marion. Ala . college "It’s been a
long time since we've been beated that
bad ”
Beating opponents soundly is
something Castronis' Bullpups are used
to dishing out — but not taking Last
year Georgia remained undefeated,
and in their only other game this season
the Bullpups whitewashed Tennessee
Military Institute 21-0
Castronis said the visiting Tigers (6-
11 had come to Athens ready to play
“You've got to give Coach < Bubha >
Hooker a lot of credit They were
mentally ready We didn’t have a team
effort like we did against TMI, and
that's what beat us."
The game was one the Bullpups
would probably soon like to forget
Overall. Georgia fumbled 10 times,
losing three Two field goal attempts
were missed, and two other attempts
were halted after bad snaps. All of
Marion's points were direct results of
fumbles or missed field goals
Marion led 10-0 at halftime The
Tigers' first score followed a missed
Rusty Gillespie field goal On that
touchdown. Marion quarterback Leo
Butler connected to reciever Danny
Barnes from 20 yards out
On the first play of the ensuing
kiekotf. Georgia lost the ball on a fum
ble at its own 22 yard line to give
Marion excellent field position Six
plays later, kicker John Griffin booted
a 22-yard field goal
In the third quarter Georgia fumbled
again, this time turning the ball over to
Marion at the Bullpup 20 Marion soon
capitalized, as fullback Dwight Stone
swept around left end to increase the
Tigers' lead to 17-0.
Marion’s final score came in the
fourth quarter when Gillespie missed a
long field goal attempt The Tigers
responded witn a 60-yard touchdown
pass from Butler to speedster Sam
Thomas
It looked like it might be a shutout
until 25 second left in the game With
time runing out, Georgia quarterback
Scott Houston hit sprinter Sam Palmer
on a 28-yard pass to prevent a Georgia
goose egg
Statistically, the game was much
closer than the score indicated Marion
had 260 total yards, 79 of them rushing,
and nine first downs Georgia, on the
other hand, had 208 total yards. 134 of
them on the ground, and ll first downs

Florida This match would turn out to be the demise of the
Lady Dogs in Miami Georgia could only achieve one victory-
in singles play, by Jenny Thornton, and it was trounced 5-1.

would nelp to improve its preseason ranking of 21. but she
didn’t feel that the losses that the team incurred would hurt
its position in the polls
Furthermore. Donigan described her team as being young
and talented, so as it gains experience, she feels the team will
be able to be more competitive with the higher ranked teams
that it will face in the spring
