BOCA RATON, Fla. — Jimmy
Connors, defying his own age and
his opponent’s powerful serve, out-
slugged Yannick Noah in a four-set
quarterfinal match Wednesday at
the $1.8 million Lipton Interna
tional tennis championships.
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.

Glanville ditches last ‘alibi’
for Oilers’ playoff absence

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. MillerHci

NFL quarterbacks, willcomeii

sistency to the Houston ora
which ranked 19th intearat
last season.
Quarterback Warren Moom
the 20th-rated quarterback ini
NFL.
“It starts with the quarterbackJ
the offensive line,” Jamiesor
“We want to establish a m
game but with a quarterbacki
Warren Moon and receiver! I
Drew Hill, we’d be sillv notto’i
the ball.”
Huff will be charged whhi
vincing Moon that the shotpc
fense is beneficial under certain
ditions. The Oilers did not ud

did not feel comfortable.

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
