NEW ORLEANS — Louisiana
State forward Durand Macklin left
the game with a deep cut on his
finger in the second half, but the
possibility of slipping an NCAA
championship ring immediately
killed the pain.
Macklin, the Southeastern
Conference Player of the Year,
went to the locker room with a
dislocated and bleeding finger af
ter playing only 30 minutes
against Wichita State in the NCAA
Midwest Regional finals, but that
was enough.
Macklin, 6-7, fired in 21 points
and smothered the Shockers
under the boards, pacing the Ti
gers to a 96-85 victory.
At a post-game news confer
ence, Macklin said his injury
would have no effect on his per
formance in the NCAA semifinal
matchup against Indiana Saturday
in Philadelphia.
“I can’t let anything stop me
from contributing to our team,”
the senior forward said. “It might
hinder me in dribbling but I’ll just
have to get used to it.”
Macklin and teammate Greg
Cook spurred LSU in a first half
19-2 burst, contributing from both
ends of the court with clutch field
goals and rebounds.
Macklin finished the first half
with 17 points and nine rebounds
while Cook finished with 19 points
and seven rebounds.
Even Cook, a 6-9 center known
for his aggressive rebounding, had
a difficult time handling the
Wheatshocker board play.
“I played physical so when I say
it was rough — it was rough,” he
said.
Wichita State coach Gene
Smithson couldn’t agree more
with Cook’s interpretation.
“They really killed us on the
boards in the first half. We just
didn’t pull them down.
“They have a tremendous bas
ketball team. They boarded well.
They had great quickness,” he
said. “They are just an outstanding
basketball team.”
Cook and Macklin swarmed
over the Shockers’ every move,
knocking and blocking shots repe
atedly.
Shocker guard Randy Smith-
son, who finished the game with
18 points, hailed the superior Ti
ger defense.
“I was looking to shoot a lot, but
I just didn’t get many opportuni
ties,” the 6-3 senior said. “You’ve
gotta give credit to their defense
and board play. We just didn’t hit
the boards like they did.”
LSU is now 31-3 and is fourth in
the nation. WSU, the Missouri
Valley champions, finished at 26-
7. LSU led the SEC in defense,
holding their opponents to just
67.6 points per game.
LSU advanced to the finals after
clobbering Arkansas 72-56 and
Lamar 100-78.

But the Ags rebounded Tues

University, to keep an even, .500

Judson was the bright spot for
the Ags in both home matches as
he went undefeated. He was im
pressive in both sets, showing a
tenacity that surprised Kent.
“Tom is playing the best ever,”
Kent said. “I just can’t say enough
about him and the way he’s been
playing.”
Judson beat Dellaucdova of
Wichita State and then defeated
Bill Moss of Arizona 3-6, 7-6, 7-5.
The matches raise the national

the spring season. The Ags are
