The Red and Blat It Pane II
Military battle
Army. Navy. Air Force. Marines. Well, two out of four ain’t had and that
was the story when Georgia's Air Force IIOTC hosted Georgia Tech’s Navy
ItOTC in a football game at the intramural fields Sunday. Georgia spotted
Tech a first-half touchdown before rallying in the second half for an 8-7 win.
Air Force player Kevin Oliver said afterwards. "We played solidly and de
served to win by more than one point." The comeback began when junior
< hris C ortese (above, with halii scored on a 15-yard pass from Brian Welch
to pull the .Air Force within one point. With two minutes to play, the Navy
botched a snap on a punt for the deciding safety. The game featured phys
ical play as the teams departed from University rules by using full contact
blocking instead of screen blocking.
Spikers hurting after hitting brick Vole
By Brook* Melchior

A long season got a little longer
for Georgia’s volleyball team last
Friday as a lackluster Tennessee
squad hurdled the Lady Dogs in the
Southeastern Conference race,
chewing up the spikers 3-15. 15-13,
15-12, 15-11 at the women's p.e
building
The Vols' punching of Georgia’s
fifth-place ticket in SEC regular
season play represented the spikers’
lowest finish in history
"This is definitely the biggest win
of what has been a very down year
for us," Vols coach Sandi Lynn said
"Now we know we can beat Georgia
and that puts us in a better position
as far as the (SEC) tournament is
concerned."
Losers of five of its last six
matches and 8-13 on the road, the
Lady Vols <16-18, 3-3 SEC) certainly
presented an attractive proposition
for (19-12, 4-4 SEC) Georgia on
Friday Steamrolling the visitors 15-
3 in the first game seemed to reaf
firm that assumption.
"We were really were intimidated
in that first game," I^ady Vol out
side hitter Stephanie Ehlers said.
"We sort of pulled together once
Georgia started to make some er
rors."
Tennessee had the hard-hitting
Ehlers, 6-3 Dianne Shoemaker and
little else, but a retooled defense-
brought the Lady Vols from an ini
tial loss to three straight wins.
"By the end of the first game we
realized we could win," said Shoe
maker. "The difference was we
made some defensive changes after
the first game and they (UGA)
didn’t adjust to them."
With Georgia attempting to kill
the ball crosscourt all evening long,
Shoemaker and Wendy Jones
simply moved more toward the
middle of the court, thereby
blocking most of the Lady Dogs’
spikes.
"I was getting inside sets and you
Christa Paris (foreground) along with the Georgia's volleyballers hit rock bottom on Friday
generally can only hit crosscourt off
an inside set," Georgia outside
hitter Christa Faris said.
"It seemed like their blockers
were everywhere." Georgia middle
hitter Kelli Ogden lamented
"Christa Faris just killed us in the
first game hitting crosscourt so we
moved over and just started
blocking everything," said Lynn.
Indeed. Lady Dog top gun Faris
hit only 170 for the match.
Georgia’s other big hitter, Christie
Lord, registered only 12 kills for the
match, five of those coming in the
final game.
While the Lady Dogs gave the
Lady Vols a beating in the early
going of the last three games, it was
Georgia who was on the bottom
looking up when each game ended
Blowing leads of 10-8, 11-1, and 10-
7 in respective games, the Lady
Dogs were unable to fashion a
pleasant going-away present to se
niors Jenny McDowell and Sandi
Trani
"This would've been a good
match for us to win," said Mc
Dowell, who had her number 16 re
tired on Friday evening. “It just
seems like they pushed a little
harder,"
Playing out the final two games of
its regular season schedule on Sat
urday, Georgia swept both Ten
nessee Tech and Northern Illinois in
three straight games
Though losing its fourth consec
utive conference match on Friday
and finishing the regular season
with exactly half the number of vic
tories as last year. Trani felt Sat
urday wins were another building
block as the Lady Dogs gear up for
next weekend's SEC tourney.
"We finished up strong and we
just need to keep hammering
away,' she said.
