Georgia's second-ranked women's
gymnastics tpam, sparked by solid
performances from freshmen An
drea Thomas and Corrinne Wright,
destroyed visiting Radford in a duai
meet, 187.2 to 165.9. Friday night at
the Coliseum.
Wright won the vault competition
with a 9.7 and placed second on the
balance beam with a 9.2 on her way
to capturing the all around
I championship with a score of 37.15
| Thomas won her second beam
title in as many meets with a 9 65
and tied for first place on the floor
exercise with teammates Michelle
Sessions and Julie Klick at 9.45.
Klick finished second in the all-
around competition.
I Georgia had its ups and downs in
l the first home meet of the season
I The Lady Dogs broke two team re-
I cords but fell victim to inconsis-
1 tency on an event in which they
I broke the team record last week
I In the first event of the meet, the
I vault. Georgia scored a school re-
J vord 47.60. Wright led the way with
la 9.7, followed by Gina Banales and
I Paula Maheu with 9.6, Terri Eckert
Iwith 9.5, Tanya Schuler with 9.2 and
| Julie Klick with 9.1.
The next event, the uneven bars.
Iproved even more satisfying
■Georgia, the defending national
[team champion on the bars, scored
a school record 47.75 points, almost
half a point higher than the old re
cord. That score was achieved
without Sessions, who averaged 9.5
last year, in the lineup.
Lucy Wener, the defending indi
vidual national champion, won the
event with a 9.7. Terri Eckert, an
All-American on the bars in 1985,
scored 9.6. Klick scored 9.55,
Schuler and Maheu scored 9.45 and
Wright contributed 9.05.
After two events, Georgia was on
an unbelievable 190-plus pace. Then
the team came back down to earth.
Shaken by the absence of Susie
Origer, who flew home to Chicago
when her father unexpectedly died,
the beam squad scored 45.1, more
than two points below the school re
cord set last week at Ohio State.
Origer. who is normally the first
to compete on the beam, was re
placed by Eckert who. having never
competed first on the beam, led off
with a fall.
“The order of competition be
comes a habit," said Georgia head
coach Suzanne Yoculan. “Beam
was completely blown out by Susie's
absence. Terri wasn't supposed to
be there; she’s never been first up.
There was a rippling effect when
the event started with a fall.”
Thomas displayed her normal in
tense concentration in scoring 9.65
for the second meet in a row.
Wright scored 9.2, followed by
Debbie Greco with 8.8, Eckert

(8.75), Klick (8.7) and Wener <8.65).
On the floor. Thomas. Klick and
Sessions scored 9.45, Wright and
Wener scored 9.2 and Banales
scored 8.9 to total 46.75 points
“I was pleased with Julie's all-
around performance," Yoculan
.ucy Wener won uneven bars
said. “Her training came to a stand
still for a month when she was in
jured, and she’s only been working
on this floor routine for about two
weeks.
“There’s a lot of potential, a lot of
room for growth."

disposed of South Alabama 9-0 and
Duke 8-1 at the Hopkins Indoor

Dogs are a force to be reckoned
with in the SEC and in the nation.
“Anytime you bear Duke, a Top 20
team. 5-1 in singles, you have to be
playing excellent,” said Georgia
head coach Jeff Wallace
Georgia won all six singles and
three doubles matches against
South Alabama. Thfc doubles team
of Alice Keen and Jane Cohodes de
feated the 17th-ranked pair of Lisa
Considine and Mary Collins 3-6, 6-1,
7-6.
Wallace said, “Last year we split
with South Alabama 5-4 and 4-5, but
this year’s shutout shows how much
we have improved.”
Georgia’s next victim was 16th-
ranked Duke. Five Georgia players

hodes fought back from ‘a 4-5 deficit
to nip the seventh-ranked team of
Christine and Terri O’Reillv 7-5. 7-6,

The aggressive play of Georgia
was shown best by Cohodes. In her
doubles match, she dove for a ball,
putting a hole in her warmup suit.

fjjienee. attitude, concentration, and
fough tennis that we played,” said
Wallace .‘‘We took it to both
teams.”
