■ HOUSTON (AP) — The East, led by Pittsburgh’s
“tnguardable” Jerome Lane, moved into the favorite’s
r|)le in U.S. Olympic Festival basketball Monday with a
9<’-89 victory over the West.
I In women’s play, the South beat the North 74-71 as
■ennessee teammates Sheila Frost and Bridgette Gor-
Hnn each scored in the final minute. The South, win-
ricrol four straight Festival titles, is 2-0, the North 1-1.
jl&M sophomore Donna Roper scored two points and
aided two assists for the South.
I The third day of Festival action featured play in 18
Torts in hot Houston, where the temperature climbed
t< 90 degrees. If anyone was hotter than Lane and the
weather, it had to be Mary Lou Ramin of Chula Vista,
Hal if., who threw a no-hitter in a 9-0 victory by the
| \j\ est over the South in women’s softball.
I It was the first no-hitter of the season for Ramm, an
Hlementary school teacher. She walked six and had two
Hf the West’s nine hits.
I The South had only one hit in two games, losing 3-0
t( a one-hitter by Tracy Compton of the North in the
afternoon.
I Lane, the sharpshooting sophomore forward, hit for
21 points to boost the East’s record to 2-0. Lane had 18
ii the second half.
I “Today those guys just lost track of me,” Lane said.
■They just didn’t want to guard me and I was open ev-
Hry play.”
I East Coach Cary Williams of Ohio State knows about
Hane from Big ELast play when Williams was coaching
Boston College.
I “I thought Lane was a pretty good player who
Blayed well some of the time,” Williams said. “Now he
Bis starting to realize he can be a real good player if he
Buts his mind to it.”
I Villanova sophomore Doug West added 17 points
I For the East. Steve Thompson, a Los Angeles native
Ivho will attend Syracuse this fall, led the West with 19
points. f
In women’s play, Deanna Tate and Monique Pom-
ili triggered a second-half surge that lifted the East to
74-72 victory over the West. The game was clrxse until
the East, 1-1, reeled off 13 straight points — including
four apiece by Tate and Pompili — to turn a 57-56 def
icit into a 69-57 lead with 6:42 to play.
The swimming was dominated by 14-year-old Vickie
Vogt, a sophomore from Fort Lauderdale, Fla., who
won four gold medals.
Vogt was on the record-smashing South 800-meter
relay team and then earned the 200-meter backstroke
gold in 2:19.34. She previously won the 200-meter but
terfly and was on the South gold medal medley relay
team, and has a silver medal in the 100-meter back-
stroke.
Dante Muse of Des Moines, Iowa, also became a
four-time gold medalist when he captured the 500-me
ter final in 54.52 seconds, then helped the North to a
win in the 4,000-meter relay.
Earlier, Muse won the 1,000 and 1,500 races.
Three-time world champion Rick McKinney, Gil
bert, Ariz., took a four-point lead over two-time Olym
pic gold medalist Darrell Pace Monday after two
rounds of the archery finals. Sharon Riley of York, Pa.,
stormed from 10th place after the first round to take
the lead in the women’s event.
Aggie Notes . . . Several Aggies and a future Aggie
have turned in respectable performances so far in the
first three days of competition at the U.S. Olympic Fes
tival — ’86. Tricia Green is in seventh place in the ar
chery competition after two rounds, with 297 points,
10 behind Riley. Rick Stonebreaker, another Aggie
archer, failed to qualify for the third round.
In field hockey, Enrique Proano, Asif Quereshy and
Syed Naved Aftab playing on a combined regional
team helped their squad to a 0-0 tie with a team com
posed of former Olympian players and coaches. As a
result, the three Aggies have been invited to various
field hockey camps in Colorado and a 16-team tourna
ment in California to be held in September.
Susan Habermas, who will join the ,A&M swim team
in the fall as a freshman, placed third in the 200-meter
individual medley with a time of 2:24.12.

Bias' friend
surrenders
UPPER MARLBORO, Md.
(AP) — Brian Lee Tribble, who
prosecutors say supplied the co
caine that killed basketball star
Len Bias, surrendered Monday
and was jailed when he couldn’t
post $250,()()() bond.
Tribble, a long-time friend of
Bias, was indicted Friday on
charges of distributing cocaine,
possessing cocaine with intent to
distribute, possessing cocaine and
possessing PCP, said his lawyer,
William Cahill.
David Gregg and Terry Long,
two of Bias’ teammates at the
University of Maryland, were
served notice of their indictment
on charges of possesion of co
caine, but they were not required
to turn themselves in, said Prince
George’s County Sheriff James V.
Aluisi.
Tribble has asked for a hearing
before a circuit court judge to
seek a reduction in his bail and is
scheduled for a 1:30 p.m. bond
hearing today.
Arthur A. Marshall Jr., state’s
attorney for Prince George’s
County, said before the grand
jury returned the indictments
that he believed Tribble supplied
the cocaine that killed Bias.
Allegations
(continued from pagel)
to the student body, the Times
Herald said.
A&M Head Basketball Coach
Shelby Metcalf and Athletic Director
Jackie Sherrill were unavailable for
comment, when The Battalion at
tempted to contact them Monday.
Assistant coach John Thornton
told The Battalion Monday that it
was the athletic department’s policy
not to comment on any allegations
or hearsay.
Metcalf was contacted by The
Bryan-College Station Eagle Satur
day, and said, “I think (the accusa
tions are) groundless, but I’ve been
told not to comment.”
The Times Herald quoted former
Aggies Kenny Brown, Phil James,
Tyren Naulls, Darnell Williams,
Reggie Roberts and Tyrone Emer
son as saying they had received pre
paid airline tickets arranged by
coaches to travel home from College
Station.
James and Naulls are from Los
Angeles, Williams is from New York,
and Emerson is from Chicago, Ill.
Roberts, the Times Herald re
ported, said he received prepaid
tickets one summer while at A&M to
Fort Walton Beach, Fla., so he could
visit his parents who moved there
from McKinney.
Brown was quoted by the newspa
per as listing several A&M violations.
Kenny Brown
Alleges several Texas A&M
basketball violations.
According to the Times Herald,
Brown said:
• The summer before his enroll
ment at A&M Metcalf gave him a
plane ticket to travel to Tucson,
Ariz.. Metcalf did not ask to be re
imbursed for the ticket.
• Former assistant coach and re
cruiting coordinator John Widdi-
combe reimbursed him $80 to $100
per car trip he made to his home in
Memphis, Tenn.
• He attended Hill College, a ju
nior college in Hillsboro, without
paying dormitory fees or tuition. He
and then-A&M recruit Lowell Mc
Henry also received small amounts
of cash for meals by Hill athletic di
rector and basketball coach Ray Rob
erts.
Roberts, the paper reported, den
ied handing out cash tp players or
knowledge of A&M players attend
ing Hill without paying.
Two other A&M players, Reggie
Roberts and Brian Marshall, the
Times Herald reported, said they
believed A&M paid their tuition
while at Hill College.
The newspaper also quoted Rob
erts, Naulls, Emerson and former
Aggie forward A1 Culton as saying
they could obtain rental cars
through members of the coaching
staff to use when recruits were visit
ing the campus.
Fred Burton, a forward in 1984-
85 and part of last season, said Met
calf stopped supplying rental cars af
ter one player “really took advantage
of it,” but he was able to borrow
Widdicombe’s car several times, the
Times Herald said.
Burton, James, Williams and Cul
ton were quoted as saying they sold
complimentary tickets to boosters
and athletic team managers.
Burton, the paper reported, said
he sold his tickets for the 1985 tour
nament for between $400 and $500.
James, the Times Herald reported,
said he received about $100 for four
tickets and Williams claimed he sold
his tickets for about $200.
