SWC Roundup r Hogs, Frogs win; UH plays Arkansas Sunday ; |i: [>ES United Press International ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★ 'PxviletH: What to do this Summer! Houston coach Guy Lewis says he is already wondering what the Cougars are going to do without Michael Young next season. But, more to the point, it is just about time to start won dering what the Cougars are going to do with Young while he is still available. “Houston is certainly as good as anyone in the country,” said Virginia coach Terry Holland, whose team became the 23rd victim of the Cougars on Satur day. The Cougars 74-65 win over the Cavaliers Saturday was an important one for Houston de spite the fact Virginia is near the bottom of the Atlantic Coast Conference standings. Houston has lost to North Carolina State and Kentucky and defeated Louisville in games that were shown coast-to- coast this season. “I felt like we were due on national TV,” said Young, who scored 22 points and keyed a quick Houston start. “For my self, I thought it was a good game. 1 would say this was one of my better games of the year.” “Nobody appreciates him, maybe, except me,” Lewis said.
