Olajuwon
keys Rockets
past Denver
HOUSTON (AP)—Jim Peter
sen said the Rockets pulled out
the usual welcome mat for
Denver Monday night, delivering
a 1-2 punch that led Houston to a
124-108 NBA victory.
“We always try to play well
against our arch rivals like
Denver and Dallas,” said Peter
sen, who scored a career-high 22
points and grabbed nine re
bounds. “Anytime we can kick
them it’s a good night.”
Akeem Olajuwon scored 16 of
his 31 points in the third quarter
when the Rockets took firm con
trol of the game and Petersen hit
10 of his 22 points in the fourth
quarter.
“We have that big guy No. 34
(Olaujwon) out there and that’s a
good start right there,” Petersen
said.
The Nuggets had trouble
brunting Houston’s charges.
Coach Doug Moe said.
“We missed everything and
they hit everything during those
streaks they had,” Moe said. “We
needed to move the ball and we
didn’t do it. But when things
aren’t going good things like that
happen.”
Olajuwon led a 12-0 Houston
surge over a 2:55 span of the
third quarter that broadened the
Rockets’ six-point half time lead to
82-67 with 5:04 remaining in the
quarter.
It was Denver’s fourth straight
loss and its seventh in eight
games.
Olajuwon, who also had 14 re
bounds, scored Houston’s final
eight points in the third period
for a 92-82 Houston lead going
into the final quarter.

Clemens ready to prove himself
as 1987 baseball season nears
WINTER HAVEN, Fla. (AP) —
Roger Clemens, the 1986 American
League Most Valuable Player and Cy
Young Award winner, donned his
Boston Red Sox’s uniform for the
first time since the World Series
Monday, determined “to prove my
self again.”
“There’s no doubt in my mind
that I can pitch, but I don’t care who
you are — you have to prove your
self again,” Clemens said after the
Red Sox’s first workout at Chain
O’Lakes Park.
“I’m ()-() just like everybody else,”
said the big right-hander, who led
the majors with a 24-4 record last
season. “I’m a nobody. I have to
prove myself again.”
Brought along gradually last
spring after right shoulder surgery
on Aug. 30, 1985, Clemens became a
sensation in just his second full year
with the Red Sox.
On April 29 in little Fenway Park
in Boston, he set a major league re
cord by striking out 20 batters in a 3-
1 victory over Seattle. He went on to
win his first 14 decisions while pitch
ing the Red Sox to their first pen
nant in 11 years.
“The first thing I’m going to try to
do is fx? 1-0,” Clemens said. “Then, if
I finish 5-5 with 15 no decisions and
we win all 15, I’ll be happy because
I’ll know I’ve kept my team in the
game.”
Clemens, only 24, said his right
shoulder recently "tested out
stronger than ever” at the University
of Massachusetts Metlical Center.
But, he said, he expects opposing
hitters to lie gunning for him.
“If I didn’t think this will lie a
very, very tough year, I’d lx* kidding
myself,” lie said. “This is going to lx*
a hard year.
“If you get Big League-itis, some
one is going to sit on your butt.”
Clemens said the disappointment
of Boston’s loss to the New York
Mets in the seven-game World Series
last fall affected him for “about a
week or 10 days."
‘Then I started thinking about
this year,” he said. “We were the
sixth different team to win our divi
sion last year, so it seems it should be
Cleveland’s turn this year. It’s a chal
lenge for us, and we have to accept
that challenge.”
Clemens, who ran, participated in
calisthenics and threw from the
mound for 10 minutes in his first
formal practice, said lie had b
working out at high sdiool field if
Tampa about 60 miles from Winn
Haven.
He reported on schedule i
though he is Boston’s only umignd
player.
“That doesn’t bother me," Cb
ens said. "I don’t care about tin
numbers. That’s Mr. (Alan) Ite
dricks' job. He handles things lilt
that for me. He’ll lx herenextwi
to talk to (General Manager)
(airman."
Clemens reportedly earnti
slightly more than $300,000,ii
ing incentive bonus money, last yet,
but is ineligible to go to arbitral))
until next winter.
The Red S< ix may renew his am
tract for just about what they m
this year, but Clemens said:
“I think they’ll treat me very flit
They know what I can do forth#
and the way I live. I takealotd
pride in the way kids look up tome.'
Added Manager John McNi
mara:
“Roger Clemens is a very poise
young man. He has a very positut
attitude — plus a 95 to 97 m.p.h.[is
ball.”

University of New Orleans
enters Top 20 for 1st time
NEW ORLEANS (AP) — In just .
bis second season at the University
of New Orleans, Coach Benny Dees
has combined a giddy-up offense
with a gimme-that defense to pro
duce the school’s first-ever appear
ance in college basketball’s Top 20.
New Orleans was ranked No. 19
in this week’s major college basket
ball poll, well off the pace set by top-
ranked Nevada-Las Vegas, but still a
beady experience for a groiqi of
newcomers, who were still learning
each others’ first names when the
season began.
“This feels, probably, I letter than
ever before, because of what we are
and where we’ve come from,” Dees
said. “I particularly like being in the
Top 20 in the last weeks of the sea
son. If we can stay there, it’s a great
way to finish.”
It could help produce the school’s
first appearance in NCAA tourna
ment play as a major college. New
Orleans lost the Division II
championship by two points in 1975,
the school's last season in the smaller
division.
Dees replaced Don Smith as head
coach last season, kept three of
Smith’s players, signed four from
Tulane after that school abandoned
men’s basketball, and added a cou
ple of his own recruits to go 16-12.
This year, he signed the nation’s
No. 1 junior college prospect, Ledell
Eackles, and added center Damon
Vance, a transfer from Louisiana
State University. New Orleans was
22-3 after a 73-72 victory at Fan
American Saturday.
Dees turns Eackles loose off the
running game, and he’s averaging
24 points a game.
The man-to-man defense comes
up with an average of 22 turnovers a
game, and an average of just under
17 of those are steals.
