Do-or-die time for FSU netters
By Steve Ruffonl
SportsWriter
Both the Fresno Suae men's arid women's
tennis teams will take to the court this
weekend in search of a PCAA tide.
The men's team will be competing today
thru Sunday in Las Vegas. Led by junior Jean
LeClerq, the Bulldogs have amassed a 18-9 dual
match record, which tied a school record for
most wins m a season.
LeClerq, the Bulldogs No.l seed from
Revallois Penel, France, set an FSU record for
wins in a season, as he posted a 28-10 mark.
Ranked No.58 in the nation. LeClerq reached
the semi-finals in the powerful Ojai
Tournament last weekend, before losing to
No.56 Miles Walker of Chapman College, 7-6
7-5. LeClerq will be a definite threat to capture
the PC AA championship.
Another possible threat for the Dogs could
be senior John Soto, who has enjoyed his
finest year as Bulldog, with a 19-14 season
record. Soto will competing for the No.2
smgles championship.
This season, the only two league losses
FSU received were at the hands of Long Beach
State and UC Irvine. The Bulldogs will be
trying to better last year's third place finish at
the championships, which was the best in the
school's history.
rWthe women, most of the spotlight will
be cast on the Bulldogs' No.l seed Julie
Frasicr. A junior from Santa Monica, Frasier
has powered her way to a 17-9 record as the
women's No.l seed. She had a six match win
streak destroyed at Ojai when she lost to the
eventual champion, Kristi Kern of the
University of the Pacific.
"Julie was unlucky to play Kern when she
did. Kern was just phenomenal at the
tournament. I thought going into the
tournament that Julie could win it all, but it
was just bad luck she faced Kern at that time,"
said head women's coach Cynthia Doemer.
Frasier, the current holder of the women's
marks for victories fat a season (17). and
victories in a career (29-16), has the third best
winning percentage at the No.l singles slot in
the PQAA with a .546 clip, and should be the
Bulldogs major threat to win a championship.
For the season, the Bulldogs are 9-13-1
overall, and 2-5 in the PCAA. but first year
coach Doemer feels the team is going into the
championships with a positive attitude.
"We are going in with a very postive
attitude. I think we can do well. I would be
pleased with a seventh-place finish. We have a
very strong league this year," Doemer said.
Besides Frasier. Doemer is also looking for
No.4 seed Tara Eden to perform well. Eden, a
freshman from Placerville, holds a 9-16 record
this season, which set a new record for wins in
a season by a freshman.
"Julie and Tara could both have good
tournaments. Both have been playing well
lately, and have had a good showing against
against leagae competition," Doemer said.
SOFTBALL

Parrent's single in the thfad opened the
doors to FSU's first three runs, as a batter later
Parrent dashed all the way around to score on a
Mayer double to the gap in left. An out later,
Rolen was hit by a pitch, then both Mayer and
Rolen scored when the SDSU first baseman
botched a Strang grounder and hurled it past
her third baseman's head.
Parrent also started the fireworks in the
fifth, pounding a single to right Mayer
followed with a single and both runners
advanced on Nof fsinger's sacrifice bunt. An out
later. Strang tallied RBIs 26 and 27. lacing a
single to center field.
Julie Glass suffered the loss to fall to 5-3.
giving up six Bulldog huts and three earned
runs in seven innings of work.
The 'Dogs continue their homestand with a
double-header this afternoon against the
Aztecs, then play their crucial PCAA bout
with the No. 1 Titans from Fullerton State on
Saturday with the first game of the twinbill
beginning at 1 p.m.
GRIDDERS

That 21-20 lead held right up until the end
of the contest. Belli missed a chance to win it
when a short field goal sailed left of the
goalpost and it appeared the Whites had a win.
But, on third down with 1:57 left to play,
Telford fumbled the pigskin away trying to
escape from pressure.
Courtney Griffin rushed on the next five
plays. It took him three tries to get a first
down; and then on first-and-goal from the five.
he chugged to the one yard line. Griffin
crawled over the goal line on the next play to
give his team the lead.
Skipper, running right on a sweep, lofted a
pass that James Williams pulled in for a two-
point conversion and 28-21 lead.
Tt was the time that we put everything
together that we had learned during spring
practice," defensive end Jethro Franklin said.
"We had a great recruiting year on defense and
we're going to be good."
GOLFERS

freshman Ron Ewing have also contributed
to the success.
The Bulldogs face their toughest challenge
this weekend before taking part in the NCAA
Tournament June 10-13. FSU's only other
tourney before nationals will be the PCAAs,
in which they will be the heavy favorite.
Last season, the 'Dogs finished fourth in
the ASU Sun Devil Phoenix Thunderbird
Tournament. RYU won it, and Arizona State
finished second.
In the 1986 individual competition, David <
Si/hcrland placed third, while Kevin
Sutherland and Loustalot tied for 13th.
"Every time we tee it up, we know that we
can win," Watney said. "But, we can just as
easily place sixth, eight or 10th in the tough
tourneys.
"It's hard to play at the top of you're game
all the time. But generally, so far we have
done that this year," he added.
Far and away the best.
