VICTURY AT HOMECOMING Savannah State Rips Past Albany St., 23-0 Statistics SSC ASC First down 14 9 Yards rushing 176 78 Yards passing 145 193 Passes 9-19-1 16-41-3 Fumbles lost 0 1 Punts 4-42-3 4-40 Yards penalized 105 70 The Savannah State Tigers used big plays, and a lot of defensive hustle to defeat Albany State 23-0 for a big homecoming win at Savannah State Stadium. The Tigers opened the game with an impressive drive moving to the Golden Rams' six when the drive stalled. Ricky Childs came in and kicked a field goal to give the Tigers an early 3-0 lead. SSC set up its first touchdown when Walker intercepted a Ronald Allen pass at the Al- bany State five yard line. - The Tigers had trouble getting the ball in, as Chuck Ransom was called for throwing to one of his offensive linemen, and SSC was faced with a fourth and 30 at the Rams 42. Instead of punting, Stanley Ellis took the snap and hit Willie Tarver with a 15-yard pass. Albany was guilty of a personal foul on the play, giving Savannah State a first and goal at the ASC seven-yard line. Three plays later Kenny Dawson lunged in from the one to give the Tigers a 9-0 lead at the half. - Albany's only threat came early in the third quarter as the Rams threw three passes to set up a first and ten at the Savannah State 34-yard line. On third and three Ram quarterback Allen threw to flanker Donald Cotton, but Tiger cor- nerback Roland Wallace leaped for the interception to squelch the drive. With the ball at its own 20, SSC' ran one play-off tackle, with Sam Lewis picking up five yards. Chuck Ransom was replaced at quarterback by Greg Slocum, and the senior slinger stepped back and threw a 75 yard touchdown strike to Reggie Tindall. Ellis threw to Ken- neth Norwood for the PAT giving the Tigers a 17-0 lead. The Tigers capped the game off when Slocum threw to Tindall for a 10-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter.

This was a big win for us because we now have a winning season. But we cannot stop now, we have to knock-off Knoxville to make our season 6-3-1. he said. Our seniors have done a good job of getting the younger players up for every game. This has paid off dur- ing the last few games because we have needed these players to fill in for our tired starters and the young guys have played well.

Tim also made honorable mention AP Small College All American, Atlanta journal All-SIAC team, All Conference SIAC, Outstanding Athlete Award of the 10005 Wrong Club, and Finalist Georgia Amateur Athlete of the year. Walker is a graduate of Northside High School in Warner Robbins, GA. In High School he was an All- State football player and played in the GA. High School Association's All-Star game where he served as co-captain. ' Tim was recruited by over 50 major colleges and universities which included Clemson, Louisville, Uni- versity of Tennessee, Michigan State, Georgia, Georgia Tech, Navy, Mississippi, The Citadel, Alabama, Flor- ida State, South Cxarolina and Troy State. Only three black schools recruited Tim Walker-Sa- . vannah State, Fisk, and Tennessee State. I decided that I was going with the first black col- lege that recruited me. Intiially, Savannah State was - the only black school to recruite me, said Walker in response to why he ended up playing at Savannah State. Walker went to say, when I was in high school, it seemed a shame to me that so many black athletes think that the only way that they can make in college football and to the pros ranks is to play at a mostlylwhite college. So I wanted to prove to myself and to others that it is not Where you play but how you play. One can also use this philosophy in life-because a man can make something out of himself if he wants to in any situation. ' I always wanted to go to a black college. And even after I had visited numerous college campuses I knew that Savannah' State was where I wanted to play SSC was close to home and my parents could come see me play. My brother, Brian Walker, played first string de- fensive back at Savannah State for four years and was co-captain his junior and senior years. This was another factor that led me to savannah state college. When asked what place professional football and education held in life. Tim stated, I would like to play professional footballi-It is a goal that I have but it is only one of my goals in life. I definitely want to finish my education at Savannah State. Tim is a physical education major who is carrying a 2.40 grade point average on a four point scale. He feels that his average should be higher but does not see football as taking away from his academicseul haven't taken as much time with my subjects as I should. Dur- ing my freshman year I was less than enthusiastic about studying and grades. Now I find myself trying to make up ground .that I lost academically during my freshman year. It is never to late to catch up. Coach Ellis really stressed grades and keeping one's academic av- erage up to par. . Walker was nominated to be voted on to play in the Black College All Star game that was held on january 5, 1980 in the New Orleans Superdome. Walker states, I would like to play in the bowl. It will be a real high point in my career. It is something that I can talk about for a long time-that I was considered as one of the top black college players in America. 106 FINAL SCORES FOR THE 1979 FOOTBALL SEASON MORRIS BROWN ALABAMA STATE MORBHOUSB Fisk LANE CLARK NEWBERRY FORT VALLEY ALBANY STATE KNOXVILLE SAVANNAH STATE SAVANNAH STATE SAVANNAH STATE SAVANNAH 'STATE SAVANNAH STATE SAVANNAH STATE SAVANNAH STATE SAVANNAH STATE SAVANNAH STATE SAVANNAH STATE MEN S BASKETBALL Russell Ellington, the Savannah State College head basketball coach, is one of the best in the country.

She went to Talla- dega College on an Athletic Grant-in-Aid and played ball there for four years. This is her second year of coaching and her sec- ond year here at Savannah State College. She believes that when a team plays tough defense and puts the ball in as many times as possible, it will be successful. Working with the team last year was quite an experience and I am looking forward to a better season this year, states Coach Truedell.

Here at The '.'College by the Sea we have proclaimed this to be The Year of the Tiger, for our years have been filled with almost every endeavor a tiger can under- take. Times here on our newly floricultured academic jungle have ranged from chaotic cala- mity to frolicking festivals. We began our daring venture with many obstacles and woes to delay our adventurous trek. We were freshmen then, and we cautiously pawed our way toward our baccalaureates in the Arts and Sciences. After getting acquainted with our history, stalking our prey through the high grass of the savannahs, being ever mindful of the many traps that could have been set for us, to lead to our academic probation, suspension, or dismissal. We turned our attention to the more meaningful things such as the Rising Iunior, aca- demic achievements, and honors. lust in the clearing beyond the brush, we had more time for fun and laughter, and we dressed the part for such activities as assemblies, games, and dances. Now we can reminisce about such tribulations as disciplinary measures, for we have run the gauntlet, we are full-fledged members of a great society, poised tentatively on the edge of full-flowering hope and promise for the future. We have our footprints in the ledgend of Savannah State College. We give l'thanks and praise to those who have helped us in our quest for knowledge and achievement, confidence in ourselves. We shall strive unceasingly to bring to the name of our Alma Mater all the honor which it deserves, and of all that we will remember of days spent prowling the paths of The College by the Sea, we will remember best, The Year of the Tiger. -4---Bill' Obuya Curry , .152 to :..- . -V, c,wQ.'a.- '.'.N:-A . - - fam: . .-fy, 6: 'A - ,'J'1e,2:f- ' CLASS OF 1980 Mr. Barry Davis, Vice-President of the Senior Class retary of the Senior Class Mr. Ranell Williams, jr., President of the Senior Class ' Reigning as Miss Senior for the 1979-80 School term was Miss Patricia Screen, a senior majoring in Biology.
