Despite real effort on the parts of Bernard Bailey, Ricky Cole and others. the team just couldn't seem to snap out of a Blue Funk. Too many turnovers and too many unused opportunities at the foul line made the difference in many a game this season. 22h The Cheerleaders could always be counted on to put on an entertaining show and to cheer loudly in support of the hardwood Tigers, and the crowd was always volatile during good plays and bad. But this season, the plays were mostly bad. Home games drew large crowds. University president, Frederick S. Humphries, an avid sports fan, is always present at home games, lending his support both physically and vocally. PA announcer, Dr. Roland Norman and head coach Ed Martin discuss some of the finer points of the officiating during a time out. 1 . .'

This year Nashville's WSM-TV mhannel LU taped afl the home games. WHAT A DUNK! But it was only in practice. WHAT A HASSLE! During a dispute. at the UT-Chattanooga game played on the home court, over a foul call against Bernard Bailey for fouiing Chattanooga's William Golden, who was in the act of shooting, Coach Martin and assistant Coach Carey, ran out on the court in protest. This resulted in a free shot for being fouled. four free technical shots against Coach Martin. and two free technical foul shots against Coach Carey. Out of the seven free shots, six were completed and UT? Chattanooga won the contest by the score of 70-54. 5.35. :9 After the game was over. there was no toy in the locker room JUST SILENCE! 1977 TIGERSHARKS Tigershark coach is James I.

The physical state of TSU track. training ground of many Olympic champions, became so bad that Coach Ed. Templets complaints finally made an impact on the community. Spurred on by a Nashvitle newspaper, the TENNESSEAN'S sports columnist, FM. Williams' hard-hitting articles on the state of TSUts fast deteriorating track. the community rose to the occasion. Third National Bank voluntarily undertook to raise $100,000 as a start toward funding a new track and sports facility. Under the Ieadership of bank executive Bill Wade tformer Vanderbilt and Chicago Bears quarterbackl the community oversubscribed the project to the tune of over $110000, and at yearbook presstime was still going strong! At a special luncheon held at Third National Bank, track coach. Ed Temple, acknowledged the conclusion of the successful fund-raising drive with a challenge for additional support of the TSU track program; namely, more track scholarships and subsidiary facilities. in on the check presentation were Dr. Roy Nicks. head of the Board of Regents; Third National Bank president Charles J.
