You were there just after Roman Gabriel played? Cool. The place sure has changed...I still love Reynolds. Met DT (Skywalker), Bureleson, Monte, and some others Aug., '75. Never saw Monte without a Bud when he was at the apt. he shared with David (The Orchards). I enjoyed watching the Buckey twins and Ted Brown play. I sure hated seeing Holtz leave. Anyway, was sitting in the Rams Section - '77 I think ($$$ Carolina alumni - 40 yd line) pulling for The Pack & giving The Heels all the heck when State whooped them 34-7 (IIRC) at Keenan. P'O'd my gf's dad (UNC Med School Grad) hehehehehe. We finished the 2nd half across the field in the student section. Oh, what a time. FYI....The Wolf Line was mine and 4 others brainchild with all the routes, timings, funding, maintenance, route building, bus acquisition --- Enigneering Concepts class project fall '75 - freshman then. We had to present it 3 more times and then turn in all data to the bigwigs....chancellor, head of CE, mayor of Raleighwood with others.

As a matter of fact, the bus service terminal (motor pool) is in the exact spot we placed it (north of Sullivan Dr.) for at the inception to reduce the need for more parking.

J.W. Isenhouer was my PE tennis I & II coach - what a slave driver - lol!. Live in Bragaw for 2 years then 2 years off campus.

Anyway GO PACK!!

Nothing can match basketball in Reynolds for getting the blood pumping! Especially David Thompson and Monte Towe with their alley-oop plays. Check this out to bring back fond memories.
