Buckeyes' Bruce has known of Navy's tailback for long time
MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) - Little did George Welsh know how important his clinic lecture last summer would be for one of his pupils, Earle Bruce. The two friends will be coaching rivals in the Liberty Bowl tonight. Welsh will be coaching his final Navy game before moving to Virginia. Bruce will lead 14-point favorite Ohio state. . “We were on the same clinic in the Catskills,” recalled Welsh. “He sat in on all of my lectures. I told him all of our secrets. I didn’t sit in on his lectures I was swimming or something.” Bruce denies he learned anything he didn’t already know about Welsh’s philosophies. “He never gave any secrets out. What are you talking about? He gave the same clinic talk I’ve heard for a long time. He talked about his tailback, because that’s what he runs. He does it good," the Ohio State coach said. “His approach to football is very sound. He has good discipline. He thinks a lot about the game of football like I do,” Bruce said of Welsh. The game marks the final collegiate appearance for Ohio State quarterback Art Schlichter, who led the

ECAC to Redmen; IU beaten again
NEW YORK (AP) - The St. John’s, N.Y., basketball team may have earned some recognition by winning the ECAC Holiday Festival, and that’s exactly what has Coach Lou Carnesecca worried. “The only trouble now is that people know we’re around,” Carnesecca said. “Now, we’ll have our hands up all the time. ” Carnesecca’s Redmen blew an 18-point second-half lead, then held on to upset 19thranked Villanova, 94-89, Tuesday night in the championship game of the tournament. The Redmen got to the final by beating another highly regarded team, the Kansas Jayhawks, 76-75, the night before at Madison Square Garden. In the consolation game, Kansas defeated No. 9 Indiana, 7161, handing the Hoosiers their
Brown's travels pay off with win; Purdue is defeated
NEW ORLEANS (AP) - Louisiana State University basketball Coach Dale Brown knows a long-distance recruiting gem when he sees one, and he says Houston has one of the best. Akeem Abdul Olajuwon, a 7foot sophomore center from Lagos, Nigeria, rallied 18thranked Houston to a 73-69 victory over LSU in the championship game of the Sugar Bowl basketball tournament Tuesday night. Wake Forest took the consolation trophy with a 76-68 victory over Purdue in the first game of Tuesday night’s action. At the opening tipoff, Olajuwon was matched against LSU’s 6-10 freshman center Ray Borner of Victoria, Australia the third Australian to play at LSU since Brown took over there in 1972. Olajuwon scored 20 points and pulled down eight rebounds for Houston. Thirteen of his points came in the final seven minutes of play after Houston had erased a 37-32 halftime deficit to tie the score at 52-all. And with four seconds left in the game Houston holding a 71-69 lead Olajuwon swatted away an 8-foot jumper by Howard Carter that could have sent the game into overtime. “He’s an outstanding center,” Brown said after the game. “He’s one of the best in the country.”
completed 47 of 76 passes for 804 yards and four touchdowns. In contrast, Navy starts Marco Pagnanelli, a sophomore who has been a regular for just eight college games. Bruce, however, does not expect Pagnanelli to be the Midshipmen’s offensive hub. That role, he says, likely will fall to tailback Eddie Meyers. Meyers, a 202-pound senior, accounted for 1,318 yards rushing and broke several Navy records this season, despite missing parts or all of three games. “He breaks tackles. He’s got speed. I saw him run against Syracuse. He double clutched them and ran away. I’m worried about our tackling on Meyers,” Bruce said. Both schools have bowl traditions. Ohio State is appearing its 10th straight bowl and 16th postseason contest. The Buckeyes, however, have lost seven of their last nine bowls and have a 5-9-1 record. Navy has been a bowl team seven previous times, posting a 3-3-1 mark Three mord"bowl games are scheduled for New Year’s Eve and five major contests that will determine the national champion are sl.Bted for New
second loss in two nights. Indiana lost 63-59 to Villanova on Monday night. “We’ve got to play those guys maybe three more times at least two more,” Carnesecca said of Big East Conference rival Villanova. “I’m exhausted. Those last 10 minutes were the longest 10 minutes in history. Somebody said it was like watching the NBA.” St. John’s, now 8-1, led the Wildcats 76-58 with 7:37 to play, but Villanova outscored the Redmen 13-3 over the next 3:15 to cut the margin to eight, 79-71, on a layup by John Pinone, who scored a career-high 34 points. While St. John’s was missing the first shot of four 1-and-l free throws, the Wildcats continued to scramble. With 23 seconds left, a basket by freshman Dwayne McClain cut
Olajuwon also gave Houston ting a free throw after being fouled on a layup to give the Cougars an 18-8 lead eight minutes into the contest. LSU battled back to take the five-point halftime advantage, but couldn’t hold it. Ironically, Olajuwon’s heroics came so late in the contest that most of the votes had already been cast for the AllTournament team. He didn’t make it, but LSU’s Tyrone Black, who scored 23 points in relief of Borner, did. Houston was represented on the all-tournament team by point guard Robert Williams, who scored 19 points in Houston’s tournament-opening 59-58 victory over Wake Forest and 9 against LSU. Forward Mike Helms points against LSU and 10 against Purdue represented Wake Forest on the honors team.

Villanova’s disadvantage to three points, 92-89. On the next St. John’s possession, however, David Russell was fouled by Aaron Howard, and he hit both free throws with 18 seconds left to give the Redmen a five-point bulge, the final margin of victory. “If we’d made some of those foul shots, it wouldn’t even have been close,” said St. John’s freshman Chris Mullin, who scored 15 points, handed off seven assists and had seven rebounds to earn the tournament’s Most Valuable Player award. Billy Goodwin scored four of his 20 points in a span of 20 seconds to give St. John’s an eight-point lead, 87-79, with l‘/ 2 minutes left. Russell had 18, and Kevin Williams added 17. Williams, a reserve, scored nine straight points for St. John’s while the Redmen were building their 18-point lead. McClain finished with 24 points for Villanova. “I thought in the last four minutes, we were right there,” Villanova Coach Rollie Massimino said, “but they made a couple of key foul shots, and that was it.” Forward David Magley led Kansas, now 6-3, over Indiana, also 6-3, with 32 points and nine rebounds. Magley scored eight points as the Jayhawks outscored Indiana 12-4 over a 6V 2 - minute span in the second half to take a 46-38 lead. Indiana cut the lead to four points, 63-59, on a jumper by Randy Wittman with 2:35 left, but Kansas scored eight of the next 10 points to win by 10.

Irish may keep a little bluegrass on schedule
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (AP) - University of Louisville Athletic Director Bill Olsen says that his school might start a college basketball series with Notre Dame after the Fighting Irish series with Kentucky ends. Kentucky and Notre Dame apparently played for the last time at Louisville’s Freedom Hall Tuesday night, with N 0.4 Kentucky needing an overtime to defeat the Irish 34-28. The game has been a yearly fixture at Freedom Hall since the early 19605, but current Notre Dame Coach Digger Phelps doesn’t like the idea of the game always being played in Kentucky. Kentucky isn’t anxious to start a home-and-home series with the Irish. Into the breech steps Louisville. Olsen said that Phelps “has expressed interest in playing us in the future,” and Olsen said he felt such a series would be productive here. “There’s a large Notre Dame following in Louisville,” Olsen said, “and even if they play in Lexington, chances of people here getting tickets there are pretty slim. But if Notre Dame played us here, they (the fans) would have a better chance. ”

After winning the national championship in 1980, Louisville wasn’t able to schedule what it considers to be natural regional rivals Kentucky, Notre Dame and Indiana. Olsen thinks the pictuhe may have changed, at least with regard to Notre Dame. He said that, in the past, Notre Dame has always told Louisville that it preferred to play at various sites around the nation and since it was playing already playing Kentucky in Louisville, it would rather not return to the same city for another game. UK’s current contract with Notre Dame will end next year with a contest at Notre Dame’s Athletic Convocation Center, but Kentucky Athletic Director Cliff Hagan said he hasn’t given up hope of having at least occasional renewals of the series at Louisville. In any case, Hagan said Kentucky will continue to play at least once a year at Freedom Hall. “We’ll move our Kansas game to Louisville next year, Dec. 29, I think,” Hagan said, “and sometimes we hope to play more than one game there (at Louisville).” Hagan said he would be talking to Notre Dame shortly about the future of the series.
