THAT PLACE II 696-6933 693-0607 NCAA finals winding down United Press International Philadelphia’s Liberty Bell will peal for only two of the Final Four Saturday when Virginia, Louisi ana State, North Carolina and In diana struggle to pursue the hap piness that comes with being crowned NCAA champion. Seventh-ranked Indiana has a Tiger by the tail and it will take a supreme effort by Bobby Knight’s crew to tame No. 4 LSU, which looked ferocious in mauling un ranked Wichita State 96-85 Sun day to capture the Midwest Re gional final. A few hours earlier, the Hoosiers used pinpoint shooting and typically rugged man-to man defense to embarrass unranked St. Joseph’s 78-46 in the Mideast Regional final. In the other semifinal matchup, No. 3 Virginia, with Player of the Year Ralph Sampson, resumes its Atlantic Coast Conference rivalry with sixth-rated North Carolina, having already beaten the Tar Heels twice during the regular season. Last Saturday, the Cavaliers won the East Regional by downing 17th-rated Brigham Young 74-60 and North Carolina earned a semi final berth by taking the West Re gional with an 82-68 triumph over unranked Kansas State. Knight takes pride in his team’s grasp of the fundamentals, but the Big Ten champions are meeting their match in defense and re bounding: the SEC champion Ti gers led their conference in de fense during the regular season and never let Wichita State come close to fulfilling the promise of its nickname — the Shockers. LSU’s Durand Macklin, the SEC Player of the Year, missed the last 10 minutes with a dislo cated and bleeding finger but he inflicted a season’s worth of dam age on the Shockers. Macklin scored 17 of his 21 points in the opening half and also grabbed 9 rebounds as the Tigers took a 48- 33 lead and coasted to their first berth in the Final Four in 28 years. St. Joseph’s Coach Jim Lynam rated Indiana as strong as any team he has played this season — including DePaul and North Carolina. Indiana All-America guard Isiah Thomas scored only 8 points, but he dished out 12 assists and broke down the Hawk defense con tinually. Landon Turner hit 7-of-8 shots for Indiana, which hit 69 percent from the field compared to only 33 percent for St. Joseph’s. Virginia beat North Carolina 63-57 at home and 80-79 at Chapel Hill, N.C., in the regular season. Sampson, held in check for the first 20 minutes by BYU, asserted himself in the second half, wind ing up with 22 points, 12 rebounds and 4 blocked shots — all game- high figures. If any team in the nation is im mune from the psych-out powers of the 7-4 sophomore, it’s the Tar Heels — whose front line of fresh man center Sam Perkins and for wards Al Wood and James Worthy did some terrorizing of their own against the Wildcats. Wood, the tournament’s MVP, scored 21 points and grabbed a game-high 17 rebounds; Perkins, who holds all the freshman scoring and rebounding records for North Carolina, added 16 points and 11 rebounds; Worthy chipped in 15 points. The victory sends a Dean Smith-coached UNC team into the Final Four for a sixth time, but Smith is still plagued by what he perceives as a loser’s image. “Maybe you shouldn’t go to the Final Four at all,” he said, “be cause only one team will win. If you lose, then they’ll say you can’t win the big ones.” The final will be played in Phi ladelphia March 30. YESTERDAYS entertafmm'.nt HOUSE DRESS CODE ^ The Wednesday Special! good MOO. kadHS.
