KIM SHELDON: In all-star tryout

Rout not enough to Memphis

By The Associated Press Revenge was sweet but not sweet enough for Memphis State’s William Bedford. “We should have gotten 150 on ’em. We owed ’em something,” the 6-foot-10 Bedford said Monday after contributing 19 points to fourth-ranked Memphis State’s 99-75 romp over South Carolina which avenged the Tigers’ only Metro Conference loss of the season. The only other member of The Associated Press Top Twenty in action was llth-ranked Nevada-Las Vegas, and the Runnin’ Rebels beat Fullerton State 7869 in a Pacific Coast Athletic Association contest. Keith Lee led Memphis State, playing at home, to its 20th victory in 22 games with 26 points and 13 rebounds. The 6-10 Lee

Butler wins on last shot;

Tucker hits 17

By The Associated Press Mike Burt hit a 6-foot jumper with three seconds left as Butler shaded Oral Roberts 62-60 in a Midwestern City Conference basketball game in Tulsa. Meanwhile, Evansville fell to Detroit SOTS in another MCC game Monday night, and Northern lowa downed Valparaiso 5652 in an Association of Mid-Continent Universities game. Burt’s game-winner came after the Titans knotted the score 60-60 on a threepoint play by Jeff Acres. The Titans took the early lead and let Butler tie but not pass them in the first half, going into the intermission with a 2824 advantage. Butler first took the lead at 32-30 with 16:03 remaining in the game. Tim Haseley hit both ends of a one-and-one to give Butler the 60-57 lead before Acres tied the game. Burt, with 12 points, joined three other Bulldogs in double figures as Chad Tucker had 17, Darrin Fitzgerald 14 and Tony Gallahar 12. Butler is 15-8 overall and 8-5 in the conference. Oral Roberts is 11-13 and 7-5. In Evansville, Keith Gray scored 29 points to lead Detroit.

Doug Rose, now it’s up to Sheldon. “It’s just whoever plays best at that time, sc we’ll have to have some minor workouts with Kim in the next week,” the Greencastle High School coach said. Sheldon finished her three-year varsity career as the No. 3 all-time leading scorer in Greencastle High School girls basketball history. Only all-time scoring leader

Bird too tired to care about NBA record 'quadruple double'

By WILLIAM R. BARNARD AP Sports Writer Larry Bird was one steal away from National Basketball Association history and was too tired to care. Bird had 30 points, 12 rebounds, 10 assists and nine steals and Boston had a 22point lead after the third quarter of Monday night’s 110-94 victory over the Utah Jazz. But after playing 42 minutes the day before in a loss to the Los Angeles Lakers, Bird was in no mood for record-setting. One more steal would have given him the first regulation “quadruple double” - double figures in four categories in NBA history. Bird was told he had a chance for the record, but he chose not to play in the fourth period. “I already did enough,” Bird said. “If it had been close, I’d have been in there trying, but when you’re ahead by 30 points, what do you have to prove?” In other NBA games, Cleveland defeated Philadelphia 120-113, Detroit crushed Phoenix 122-103 and the Los Angeles Clippers tripped San Antonio 125-121. The Celtics had only nine players in uniform because starters Robert Parish and Cedric Maxwell are injured and backup guard Quinn Buckner was ill. But Bird, and Utah’s miserable shooting early in the game, kept Boston in control.

Allison Leer and No. 2 Susan Lezotte are ahead of her. Lezotte is the only other Greencastle player to be invited to tryout. THE 6-0 SHELDON played either forward or guard for the Tiger Cub West Central Conference champions this year and last. She spent most of her junior season at guard, averaging over 16 points a game with a deadly perimeter shot for the 16-3

won Greencastle its first Bloomington sectional title Saturday. The Tiger Sharks trailed Terre Haute North by three points going into the final event of the sectional and the relay team won the needed first place points. (Banner-Graphic photo by Steve Fields).

“Bird took it away from us,” Jazz Coach Frank Layden said. “It was a great effort on his part. He played a lot of minutes yesterday in Los Angeles. But he knew his team was short a couple of key guys, so he went out and played real hard. He’s as good as there has ever been.” helps to win one like this. This game was way beyond my expectations.” Bird hit 13 of 22 shots from the field en route to his game-high 30 points, while teammate Kevin McHale added 29 points while hitting 11 of 17 field goal attempts.

Lebanon bans red-shirting

LEBANON, Ind. (AP) Responding to a tactic used by former college basketball great Rick Mount to develop his son’s basketball skills, the Lebanon Community School Corporation has adopted a new rule banning red-shirting. In a 3-2 vote Monday night, the school board ruled that students who have passed a grade level must be ad- . vanced to the next grade for the following school year. The school principal has the final word on placement under the rule. Red-shirting allows students to be

squad. As a senior, coach Rose moved Sheldon to forward much of the season, but still called upon her ball handling skills against full court defensive pressure. Still she averaged 17.3 points per game for the 15-4 Cubs, pulled down 7.5 rebounds, while passing out three assists and making three steals. “THAT WILL HELP us in the long run, down the road for our younger girls,” Rose said of Greencastle’s tradition that seems to stop each year in the Eminence sectional. “Maybe we can turn this program completely around instead of just winning the conference.” Mooresville’s 6-2 center Carrie Henderson was the only other player from the Greencastle regional area selected for the workout. Terre Haute South’s Kathleen McDavid is one of six alternates.

Pistons 122, Suns 103 Detroit scored the first 11 points of the game and went on to lead by as many as 27 in a rout of Phoenix. Center Bill Laimbeer led six Pistons in double figures with 21 points, including 13 in the first half as Detroit opened a 71-46 lead. Just before halftime, the Suns trailed 69-42. The Pistons connected on 31 of 51 firsthalf shots, while the Suns hit just 12 of 40 in the opening 24 minutes. Walter Davis finished with 21 points to lead Phoenix.

held back a grade for athletic purposes. Mount, a former Indiana Mr. Basketball and Purdue All-American, has said he wanted his son, Richie, held back for another year in the eighth grade so that the youth could mature to compete in athletics Richie Mount had passed the eighth grade, but his father enrolled him as an eighth-grader at a Connecticut school at the start of the current school year, then a few weeks later reenrolled him in the eighth grade in Lebanon.
