After losing the first set, Connors, 33, came back to outlast the 25-year- old Noah 5-7, 6-4, 7-6, 6-4 in a 3- hour, 48-minute battle. Noah served 30 aces to one for Connors, but Connors hit his when it counted — at match point. The other quarterfinals were much less exciting as top-seeded Ivan Lendl of Czechoslovakia waltzed past lOth-seeded Joakim Nystrom of Sweden 6-1, 6-1, 6-4, and fifth-seeded Stefan Edberg of Sweden pounded unseeded Milan Srejber of Czechoslovakia 6-1, 6-0, 6-2. The final semifinal berth was de cided at night when second-seeded Mats Wilander of Sweden shook off a first-set scare to beat unseeded Guy Forget of France 5-7, 6-4, 6-4, 6-3. The women had Wednesday off, with their semifinals set for Thurs day pitting top-seeded Chris Evert Lloyd against No. 9 seed Kathy Ri naldi and No. 2 Steffi Graf of West Germany against No. 7 Helena Su- kova of West Germany. Connors was broken in the 11th game of a tight first set, and Noah closed out the set with an ace. aged K cation pmgu clem < formal Glanville ditches last ‘alibi’ for Oilers’ playoff absence Ni award or pro Associated Press HOUSTON — Formation of a new Houston Oilers coaching staff removed the final alibi for not pro ducing a National Football League playoff contender in 1986, Coach Jerry Glanville said Wednesday. While introducing his new staff, Glanville said team owner Bud Ad ams and General Manager Ladd Herzeg “have taken away all the al ibis for not winning.” “These coaches all come from good backgrounds,” he said. “The Houston Oilers are out of alibis. Now it’s time to go get the job done.” Glanville signed a five-year con tract as coach on Jan. 20, replacing Hugh Campbell, who was fired with two games remaining in the 1985 season. The Oilers finished 5-11. One of the reasons Herzeg gave for hiring Glanville was his ability to put together a staff of veteran NFL coaches. Glanville brought that staff to gether for the first time Wednesday. He spelled out the special talents of each coach but kept titles to a mini mum. “We decided that we were either going to have some real fancy titles or we’d have none at all,” Glanville said in introducing his staff. “I’ve even taken the ‘Head’ off all my sta tionary. We’re all just coaches here.” The key point, Glanville said, is accountability. “If the offense has a bad day, we don’t blame the offensive coordina tor and fire him,” he said. "Instead, you’ll have nine coaches step for ward. We’re in this together. If you’re mad at Ladd Herzeg, you’re mad at nine coaches too.” Glanville did give Dick Jamieson the title of offensive coordinator, but he said all offensive coaches would have input into formulating game plans. “He’s the guy that’s called plays so well in the past so we gave him the ti tle,” Glanville said. Jamieson will coach Oilers’ run ning backs and oversee the offense. Other offensive coaches are( Hull, quarterbacks; Milt JaitJ receivers; anc 1 Bill Walsh, i" line. Tom Bettis, formerly c coordinator at St. Louis and Qii land, will coach the Oilers'st I ary. Doug Shively is the deitj line coach and Floyd Reeset struct the linebackers.

SAN ANTONIO — As Alvin Robertson of the San Antonio Spurs was on his way to becoming only the second player in NBA history to ac complish a “quadruple double,” he heard a familiar sound. Spurs Coach Cotton Fitzsimmons was yelling at him for mental mis takes. “1 get after (Alvin) a lot out there,” Fitzsimmons said after San Antonio’s 120-114 victory over the Phoenix Suns Tuesday night. “One C lay at the end tonight he shoots the all with 18 seconds left on the clock. Another time, he throws it into the crowd. “But that’s part of growing pains. I’m still glad I have him on my team.” Robertson, in his second NBA season, is even more appreciated af ter his “quadruple double,” in which he posted double Figures in four cat egories. Robertson, a 6-foot-4 guard out of the University of Arkansas, had 20 points, 10 assists, 10 steals and 1 1 re bounds against the Suns. He is the first player to reach double figures in those four statistical categories. Previously, the only other NBA player to post a quadruple double was Nate Thurmond. Thurmond had 22 points, 14 rebounds, 13 as sists and 12 blocked shots on open- . bed ing night of the 1974-75 seaso: the Chicago Bulls. Robertson said the Fitzsim yelling doesn’t bother him. “Sometimes I can’t belieic things he’s yelling out there said. “I just shake my head it’s funny. But I’m 23. I can it. I’m used to coaches cussmj screaming.” Of the quadruple double.! erlson said, “It’s really nice,bull my biggest satisfaction from' We won, so I’rn happy.” The victory was especially s' t>ecause the Suns had defeated Spurs three times previously I season. “What more can I say aboiii'j vin?” Fitzsimmons asked. “TheJ A math« log U Exam Radk A&r $ - (coi real ques I 1 • u. u.» u ' tv s plays so hard every night. nej®| ( | battles for you.” Robertson strippe 1-sta j L l ii About Red hebal « d from the Suns all-star forward' ^ anC ter Davis several times to'' Phoenix rallies. ■n’t be i “Walter Davis (scored aloippL,) , : i, on me) the last time we F JI W“Ti- ia t them,” he said. “1 was deientfm, n1 | r not to let that happen again.
