D-4 Sunday Ntw Journal, Wilmington, DU Sapttmbor 7, 1980 Villanova's errors help Maryland to 7-3 victory rushing output of 162 yards. Ziesel was the leader with 54 yards, while O'Brien had 45. The "Cats had only 56 yards in the air, with 16 of those coming on a nifty fake punt by Joe Borajkiewicz and first down pass to Willie Sydnor in the second quarter. O'Brien, however, threw the first of his two interceptions on a bad throw behind Mike Gold to kill the drive. Left linebacker John Kraider picked it off at his own 23.

"Our defense was great today," said O'Brien, "but a combination of things stopped us from scoring. First, Maryland's wide-six (on the line of scrimmage) was tough. Second, it got to be a comedy of errors. "On my long run, they took the fake. I saw the safety fly right by my face and I was open.

I knew they were on my tail after that and I am certainly not the world's fastest human. The 'Vilianova defense, which "allowed 302 total yards, furnished its offense with a number of beautiful scoring chances in the second half Early in the third period, defensive end Tim Kane partially blocked Dale Castro's punt and the 'Cats recovered at the Maryland 20. A holding penalty, however, killed the drive and Bushbeck missed a 37-yard field goal attempt. "I'm very disappointed," said Coach Dick Bedesem. "We gave them a TD on the opening kickoff, and they don't score the rest of the football game.

We had some good opportunities and didn't capitalize. I don't think it is a reflection on our offense, we're going to move the ball in the future. "Maryland is one of the top defensive teams in the nation, or at least in this part of the country. They're not underrated. We don't have to be embarrassed about anything.

We're a damn good football team. With 10 games remaining, the Cats have a chance to prove such. However, the inability to punch in a timely score in important situations again haunted them. Last year, they lost three games in the final 90 seconds and they still haven't shaken that monkey off their backs. Vilianova scored its only three points in the second period on a 36-yard field goal by Chuck Bushbeck.

Quarterback Pat O'Brien, who had a disappointing 5-for-15 (40 yards) day passing, set up the score with a 39-yard run off the wishbone option to the Terp 17. Defensive back Lloyd Burruss caught O'Brien from behind to save a touchdown. "Our defense gave up some yards, but we thought they did a heck of a Maryland Coach Jerry Clai-rne said. "The only play that really hurt us came when our tackle took the fake and tackled the the fullback (Don Ziesel) and let the quarterback have a good run." O'Brien's long run accounted for nearly one-fourth of the Wildcat eW A Si. fa I Charlie Wysocki of the University of Maryland carries the ball for with Vilianova yesterday in College Park, Md.

(AP) Halfback Anthony Collins scored three touchdowns as East Carolina routed Duke 35-10 in the season opener for both teams.

Held scoreless the first period, East Carolina put across two touchdowns in the second quarter and dominated play the remainder of the game, which was played in humid, 92-degree weather before a crowd of 27,400 people. The Pirates, who looked impressive both on offense and defense, got on the scoreboard early in the second quarter when Collins took a pitchout and raced around right end from the Duke 1 to cap a 44-yard drive. Duke came back on a 73-yard By JEFF JACOBS Gumu News Serrict COLLEGE PARK, Md. Baltimore's most illustrious cheerleader Wild Bill Hagy was on the scene vesterday to exhort University of Maryland football fans with shouts of TtR-P-S TERPS! Just like he does for the O-R-I-O-L-E-S. In the end, however, it was Vilianova murmuring a-l-m-o-s-t after a 7-J loss to the Terrapins in their 1980 opener before a crowd of 32,650 at Byrd Stadium.

As any veteran member of the Wildcats will tell you, a-l-m-o-s-t spells another heartbreaking defeat to Maryland. Three years ago, it was 19-13. Last year, it was 24-20 with the Terps Charlie Wysocki scoring the winning touchdown with 54 seconds left Each time the Wildcats came close to pulling off an important upset for their football program. And each time, missed opportunities and costly errors slammed the door to victory in their faces. Yesterday, it happened again.

In fact, it happened several times as the Wildcats lost the ball five times on turnovers. After a hit by Maryland's Sam Johnson on the opening kickoff Vil-lanova's David Martin fumbled into the hands of Terp Howard Eubanks. Eubanks returned it to the Wildcat 20, and Maryland took five plays to make it to '7-0 only 2:28 into the game. Wysocki. the game's only offensive star, would score no more.

However, he labored in the 90-degree heat for 177 yards on 36 carries. College football EAST Buffalo 14, Brockport St. 13 Carnegie-Mellon 39, Duquesne 7 Connecticut 20. New Hampshire 10 Dayton 20, California, Pa. 0 Holy Cross 21, Rhode Island 14 Ithaca 58.

(AP) Tailbacks Amos Lawrence and Kelvin Bryant combined for more than 200 yards rushing and five touchdowns to spark No. 14 North Carolina to a 35-13 victory over Furman yesterday in the football opener for both teams. Lawrence, the nation's leading career rusher going into the 1980 season, gained 119 yards on 16 carries and scored the Tar Heels' first two touchdowns, both in the first quarter.

Bryant, a sophomore, gained 105 yards on 17 carries and added three touchdowns. Sophomore quarterback Rid Elkins, making his first start for the Tar Heels, completed six of nine passes for 57 yards, including a 13-yard scoring toss to Lawrence late in the first quarter. Elkins was pressed into the starting role after first-string quarterback Chuck Sharpe suffered torn knee ligaments in a preseason scrimmage. Furman scored on two field goals by Tim Tanguay and a 94-yard fumble return by defensive end Kevin Quinlan. Bryant scored the Tar Heels' final two touchdowns in the third quarter on runs of 1 and 5 yards.

State 42, RALEIGH, N.C. (AP) Fullback Eddie Jackson and halfback Wayne McLean scored two touchdowns each last night to spark North Carolina State to a 42-0 rout of out-manned William Mary.

Jackson scored on runs of 1 and 5 yards and McLean's touchdowns came on runs of 21 and 7 yards as the Wolfpack tallied almost at will on the hot, muggy night. Freshman quarterback Tol Avery guided the Wolfpack attack with the poise of a veteran, running nine times for 63 yards, completing seven of 10 passes for 84 yards and scoring the game's opening touchdown on a 3-yard run. only 10 points, Paterno said the Red Raiders had a clever offense. "It's just that our defensive was alert. Overall, the defense handled themselves well.

They were tough on the goal line, when they had to be," Paterno said. Dunlap said he thought the problem was that Colgate gave up too many big plays. "We didn't get the ball in the end zone, which hurt our chances to make the score "I told the kids that it was tough to open against a team the caliber of Penn State, because we haven't played this type of football team before," he said. "I feel we will be a tougher football team the next time we play." Penn State led 14-0 after a period on touchdown runs of 58 and 11 yards by Warner. The Nittany Lions added 17 second-quarter points on a 23-yard field goal by Herb Menhardt, Warner's 89-yard scoring kickoff return and a 3-yard touchdown by freshman Jon Williams.

(AP) Penn State coach Joe Paterno refused to get excited over his team's 54-10 opening game college football victory over Colgate vestrrday before a record crowd of 78,926.

"It was a typical opening game," said Paterno. "We were a little sloppy and had too many penalties Colgate coach Fred Dunlap, after hearing those words, had to wonder what might have happened if Penn State had been sharp. Paterno, however, wasn't all negative. He did recognize that his team scored 54 points. "I was pleased that our young feople showed etfplosiveness," aterno said, noting that Curt Warner, the offensive star of the game, was a year older and had attained some maturity.

Paterno used three quarterbacks and said they showed they could do certain things well, implying there were certain things they didn't do so well. "We need more consistency to become a pretty good offensive team," he said. Despite the fact Colgate scored training schedule for a trip to the 1980 Olympics.
