seyalvano ignites N.C. State to win
lossfefcRALEKfH, N.C. (AP)—-Jim Val-
ealik vai ) threw away his chalk. In the
Dtigan ■ocess, he may have put North Car-
IClaMia State back on the same track it
ins.adtobk on its come-from-nowhere trek
totthe 1983 NCAA basketball crown.
■Minutes before the Wolfpack took
the floor in a game that was to end
■h a 68-67 win over second-ranked
■rth Carolina for the Atlantic
Coast Conference tournament
dn’l pBampionship, Valvano underwent
also at insformation.
i Hom'Hc was real cafm the first five
1 ■nutes,’’ forward Mike Giomi said,
conwli “H e was drawing Xs and Os on the
lAauv Mt.‘kbo&rd, talking about doing
~ a NaitBngs in the game. Then, all of a
■erth. su (fen, he threw down the chalk
butwckld started screaming, ‘It comes
saidihlrom the heart. It comes from the
Df tier li
.iiusj
•ound
lama,
s Iba
ost to
heart. Don’t leave anything out there
on the court.’ ”
Tournament MVP Vinny Del Ne
gro, who hit N.C. State’s final two
free throws with 14 seconds left, said
Valvano exhorted the team by tell
ing them what a rare opportunity
they had in playing the Tar Heels
for the ACC title.
“He had me ready to run through
a wall,” Del Negro said.
The Wolfpack, 14-14 two weeks
ago, beat No. 14 Duke in overtime
and edged Wake Forest in double
overtime to reach the finals. But Val
vano, who led N.C. State through
several close calls en route to the
1983 title, said there’s nothing
wrong with blooming late.
“I know to some people it’s more
important to go 29-3 than 19-13, but
not to me,” he said. “To put the ban
ner up in your building, you have to
win this tournament. You don’t get it
for winning the regular season.”
North Carolina Coach Dean
Smith is a believer.
“They looked better to me than
when they were in the top 10 in De
cember,” he said. “So they certainly
might have an ’83 all over again.”
Valvano, who wrote a book called
“Too Soon To Quit” after the ’83
march, hasn’t lost his optimism.
“I still don’t think this team is as
good as the ’83 one. Yet, this team
has something,” he said. “If you can
beat North Carolina, who knows
what can happen?”

SWC tournament suffers
problems with ticket sales
DALLAS (AP) — Southwest Con
ference Commissioner Fred Jacoby
said Monday he was disappointed
with attendance at the 1987 South
west Conference Post-Season Bas
ketball Classic which was the worst
since the tournament began 12 years
ago in Moody Coliseum.
Only 38,379 fans attended the
four sessions at Reunion Arena. The
championship game between Texas
A&M and Baylor drew a sparse
crowd of 8,312.
The SWC said it sold about 10,000
ticket packages for the entire tour
nament. It averaged 9,595 fans per
session. Reunion Arena seats 16,007.
“We’re going to have to look at
different ways to scale ticket prices,”
Jacoby said. “We’re also going to
have to find a way to reach tourna
ment basketball followers, not just
the fans of the conference schools.
It’s obvious we are going to have to
work at finding a solution.”
Jacoby said a lot of factors could
be blamed, including the current de
pressed economy in Texas, and tele
vision saturation of basketball play
offs across the country.
“We didn’t really have a big name
player like Akeem Olajuwon or Joe
Klejne or Clyde Drexler to draw the
casual basketball fan,” Jacoby said. “I
don’t know whether the Dallas area
fans are saturated because of Dallas
Maverick (NBA) basketball or not.”
Jacoby said the SWC Classic had
brought more attention to the con
ference’s basketball program and
cited Sunday’s televised final by
ESPN as an example.
The SWC also has been hurt be
cause of recent down years by the
Arkansas Razorbacks, whose fans
are among the most supportive in
the league.
“It always helps to have the Razor-
backs in the finals,” Jacoby said.
The SWC has a contract with Re
union Arena until an option year of
1991. After two years at the Hemis-
Fair Arena in San Antonio, the SWC
tried alternating between Houston
and Dallas each year.
A's Jackson
hopes year
lacks hype
PHOENIX, Ariz.(AP) — On
Reggie Jackson’s last swing
around the American League,
he’d like to hear baseball fans
cheering him for base hits rather
than for memories.
“I don’t want a lot of hoopla.
Because I’m a lot of hoopla, any
way,” the 40-year-old Jackson
said with the wide smile he
usually wears between the more
serious moments of the game he’s
played professionally for 21
years.
Jackson will be ending his ca
reer with the Oakland A’s, the
team he helped lead to three
world championships in the early
1970s and rejoined over the win
ter after spending 11 seasons with
other American League clubs.
His career totals include 548
home runs, ranking him sixth on
the all-time list, and 1,659 RBI.
With the A’s, he is scheduled to
serve as designated hitter, pri
marily against right-handed
pitchers, and he was 2-for-5 Sun
day in his first spring training
game as the DH.
“We didn’t do it just for senti
ment,” A’s President Roy Eisen-
hardt said when Jackson was
signed as a free agent on Dec. 24.
“We think Reggie will bring back
what he left with. He plays base
ball hard, he plays it well and he
plays it to win.”
Jackson agreed.
“I don’t want anything to de
tract from the team,” he said.
“The main thing to think about is
being a unit and to keep the focus
on that unit. I’m not planning to
play after this year. But right
now, I’m just concentrating on
my workload and getting myself
ready.
“I haven’t really had time to
dwell on this probably being my
last spring training or this season
being my last go-round. But, yes,
I’ve thought of it.”
