Malone, Rockets send
Suns into shade 99-95
United Press International
HOUSTON — Phoenix had a
dazzling first five minutes and a
strong third quarter; the rest of
the time the Houston Rockets
closed ranks, hit what they were
aiming at, and pulled out a 99-95
win.
Defensively, the Rockets had
16 first-half rebounds.
Offensively, mainstay Moses
Malone was the game’s top scorer
with 34 points, and another 26
points came from players on the
bench, seeing action since Robert
Reid took leave last week to attend
to personal business.
One of the standouts was
second-year man Calvin Garrett,
who hit four key jump shots early
in the fourth quarter, when Hous
ton scored 10 straight points.
Rocket coach Del Harris said:
“This was a good team victory
tonight, with our bench contribut
ing 26 points, including key bas
kets in the fourth quarter. Our
offensive execution was about the
same as usual tonight, but thu
shots went in for a change.”
In the first five minutes of the
game, the Suns outscored the
Rockets 14-2. But the first quarter
ended with Houston owning a 10-
point lead at 31-21, and a 12-point
lead, 59-47, at the half.
Phoenix surged through the
third quarter, spearheaded by
Alvan Adams’ 11 points, to pull
even at 74-74.
Truck Robinson led Phoenix
with 21 points, while Dennis
Johnson added 20 and Kyle Macy
had 17.
The most erotic thing
in their world is money.

ing to the hosting Illinois Fighting
Illini 77-63 in the championship
game.
Coach Shelby Metcalf said the
Aggies will face a quick Cowboy
squad in Friday’s game.
“They play a 90-foot game — on
both ends of the court and in the
middle,” Metcalf said. “They like
to press and run a lot.
"1 don’t know whether there’ll
be a team at the tournament as
tough as Illinois, but our first-
round game will be mucb,„
difficult. The tournament

The Class B match-ups were tough, but “Dunn
Godzilla” defeated another team from Dunn, the
“Dunn Silent Q’s.” At the same time “DG Gim-
meabeer” was putting the “Crocker B.C.’s” in their
place. In the finals “Dunn Godzilla” was victorious.
There were 18 CoRec teams. In the Class A All-
University semifinals, “D.W.E.’s’ defeated
“Doesn’t Matter” and “Hot Shots” dedged “R, W,
and B” 16 to 13. The “D.W.E.’s” outscored “Hot
Shots” 25 to 15 in the finals. In Class B semifinal
action, “Zip and the Zippets” went against the
“Stones” while “WGAFF” met the “2%ers”. It was
“WGAFF” and “Zip and the Zippets” in the finals.
It was close, but “WGAFF” won it 16 to 15.
