"She was the only player who hit so hat’d that she overpowered me and it took me a while to get back into the groove. But, by then, it was too late in the match. In addition to hitting hard, she hit her shot very well and they were hard to return. “The coach allowed me to prepare for the tournament by not playing tennis the week before the matches. I schedule a match everyday and try to play once a day.

Gamecocks' coach survives 'takeover' The “Battle of South Carolina” clearly was a victory for Frank McGuire. Conspicuously cheery in the wake of an attempted palace takeover, the basketball coach of the South Carolina Gamecocks says with special emphasis: “I’m pretty stubborn. I don’t know. Maybe it’s because I’m Irish, or maybe it’s because I’m a New Yorker.” Analysis McGuire, of course, is both of those things but the reason that he is still in control of his own destiny and the destiny of the basketball program at Columbia, S.C. is because he has been conditioned to challenges and battles all his life. The rugged McGuire has been knocked around, all right, but never knocked out. Any college basketball fan is familiar with McGuire’s fabled ac complishments. He is the only coach to have reached the NCAA finals with two schools St. John’s and North Carolina. His 1957 Tar Heels won the national championship with a 32-0 record, beating Kansas and Wilt Chamberlain in a triple overtime thriller in the finals. McGuire has Marquette holds of Stetson MILWAUKEE (AP) - Tenth-ranked Marquette, with 18 points by Bernard, Toone leading balanced scoring, opened a 14-point halftime lead and held on for a 86-78 college basketball victory over Stetson Tuesday night. Jim Dudley and Oliver Lee added 14 points apiece and Sam Worthen and Odell Ball 12 each for Marquette, 18-4.

The highs have far outpointed the lows,' but occasionally McGuire’s basketball has been deflated. Though bringing North Carolina its tallest success, McGuire was often involved in power struggles, particularly with Jim Tatum, the strong-minded football coach. Each wanted to control the athletic department. As it turned out, Tatum died unexpectedly and McGuire left unexpectedly in the late 19505, in the wake of a recruiting scandal. After a one-year layover with the NBA Philadelphia Warriors, McGuire was back in college ball, at South Carolina. There, he built a new empire as he had at North Carolina with the help of New York-area athletes. But again, there were more, power plays in his way. When the anti-McGuire forces started to group against him last year, the mandatory retirement age was 65. Since .then, it’s gone to 70. That gave McGuire five more years, and he plans to use them all. “It was the only way they could gel at me through my age,” McGuire says. “They couldn’t say too much about my record.” Stetson, 13-10, was led by Dirk Ewing with 22 and Kevin Tucker with 21. 1 Stetson’s Hatters used their front line>, bu|k to stay with Marquette in the early', minutes.
