Slamdunk After a disappointing 1988-89basketball season ending with a 9-16 record, there was much optimism for the 1989-90 cam- paign. Unfortunately, reality did not reach the expectations. The Terrors suffered through a 5-19 record, but ended on-an upbeat note with two victories over St. Mary's and Dickinson. Michael Sherlock led the men's squad with an average often points and five rebounds per game. Marc Rudolph and three- point specialist Eric Watkinson gave the Terrors solid guard play and forwards Rob Howell and Dave Barnes joined Sher- lock in the front court. When asked about why the Terrors were unsuccessful with what was considered by many as the most talent WMC has seen in years, especially in the junior class, Sherlock replied, "Players' roles were not defined, which led to inconsistency both on the court and on the sidelines. But we're looking for- ward to next year, especially with the coaching change." The coaching change he referred to was the end of the Alex Ober era and the hiring of longtime assistant Nick Zoulias. Joining Coach Zoulias on the sideline was fifth-year assistant, John Kovach. Given the talent of this year's team, the future looks bright for the Terrors. fenders, Marc Ru- dolph drives the lane.
