DePaul ready
for showdown
United Press International
MISSION, Kan. — Ray Meyer
took DePaul to the Final Four of the
NCAA basketball tournament last
March for the first time in his 37-year
tenure as head coach of the Blue De
mons.
But the venerable Meyer will
probably have a tougher time
reaching the Final Four in 1980 even
though DePaul is a better team this
year than last. That’s because the
Blue Demons are again plotted in
the West Regional and face a possi
ble rematch with UCLA in their
opening round game.
DePaul has a 26-1 record, a No. 1
national ranking and a forward the
NBA would love to have — 6-foot-7
sophomore Mark Aguirre.
But the Blue Demons have incur
red the wrath of mighty UCLA in
two straight meetings. DePaul whip
ped UCLA in the title game of the
West Regional last March, 95-91,
and then beat up on the Bruins in a
rematch last December in the in
UCLA’s own Pauley Pavilion, 99-94.
DePaul and UCLA were two of 25
teams awarded at-large berths Sun
day for the 42nd annual tournament,
which will have its largest field ever
at 48 teams. Play begins Thursday
night with subregional games at
Greensboro, N.C. (East); West
Lafayette, Ind. (Mideast); Lincoln,
Neb. (Midwest) and Ogden, Utah
(West).
The only snag in a possible De-
Paul-UCLA rematch is Old Domin
ion, the ECAC South representa
tive. The Bruins meet the Monarchs
in a subregional game at Tempe,
Ariz., Friday night with the winner
advancing against DePaul, the top-
seeded team in the West, Sunday.
'It is, of course, difficult to beat
the same team twice in a single sea
son, Meyer said. “Your players have
confidence that they can win on a
neutral court after beating the same
team on the road earlier in the year.
Of course, UCLA has to beat a fine
Old Dominion team.
“We beat Marquette in the regu
lar season and had to beat them again
in the playoffs. One thing, you can
count on UCLA being sky-high for
us. If you can get over that first round
game, then it sometimes gets easier.
We ll be ready.”
Other teams awarded the top
seeds were Syracuse in the East,
Kentucky in the Mideast and LSU in
the Midwest.
The Midwest appears to be the
blockbuster regional this year with
four teams ranked in the Top 10: No.
4 Louisville, No. 6 LSU and No. 9
co-holders North Carolina and Mis
souri as well as No. 15 Notre Dame,
No. 18 Texas A&M and Missouri Val
ley champion Bradley.
The expanded field, up from the
40 teams of last year and the 32 of two
years ago, allowed the NCAA to lift
the lid on the number of representa
tives each conference could send.
The previous ceiling had been two.
The chief beneficiary this year was
the ACC with five teams: Duke,
North Carolina, North Carolina
State, Maryland and Clemson. The
Big Ten and Pac-10 had four teams
apiece and the Southeast and Metro
conferences two apiece;
At-large invitations were ex
tended to Syracuse, Marquette,
Iowa, North Carolina State, George
town, Tennessee and Maryland in
the East; Florida State, Washington
State, Purdue, Virginia Tech, St.
John’s and Kentucky in the Mideast;
Alcorn State, South Alabama, Notre
Dame, North Carolina, Arkansas
and Missouri in the Midwest; and
DePaul, UCLA, Arizona State,
Clemson, Utah State and Ohio State
in the West.

Rice coach heads for A&M
United Press International
HOUSTON — Rice football coach
Mike Rader has resigned after only
five weeks on the job, apparently to
accept a similar position in the Texas
A&M athletic department, Rice
head coach Ray Alborn said Monday.
The sudden resignation caused
the Owls to postpone the start of
spring football practice a week to
March 17.
Alborn hired Rader from West
Virginia after Owls offensive coordi
nator Ted Unbehagen left to join the
A&M coaching staff of Tom Wilson.
Rader was involved in the Owls pre
paration to install the veer offense
this spring.
