Indiana not taking
15-15 Fairfield lightly
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — In
diana, the top seed in the Midwest, is
battling a bitter memory as it pre
pares for its opening NCAA tourna
ment game against underdog
Fairfield.
A year ago, the favored Hoosiers
were beaten by Cleveland State in
the first round. This season, even
with a No. 3 national ranking, they
have shown a tendency to let up
against weaker opposition.
“We hope we learned a valuable
lesson last year with Cleveland
State,” said Indiana guard Steve Al
ford, a two-time All-American who
is the school’s career scoring leader
with 2,300 points. “We hope things
are different this year, but we can’t
really tell until the game starts.
Hopefully, we’ll be in it.”
Indiana, 24-4, tied Purdue for the
Big Ten Conference championship.
The league has no postseason tour
nament, and Indiana got the Big
Ten’s automatic berth. Fairfield fin
ished only 15-15 but earned its sec
ond NCAA appearance by winning
the Metro Atlantic Athletic Confer
ence tourney.
“The thing about Fairfield we
have to respect is they weren’t ex
pected to win their conference
championship,” Alford said. “But
yet they’ve won four or five games to
finish the season, and I’m sure
they’re going to be very hungry and
motivated to play against us, espe
cially at the Hoosier Dome, where
there’s going to be a lot of Indiana
fans.”
The Fairfield-Indiana game will
be the last first-round game tonight
at the Hoosier Dome, which seats
about 43,000 for basketball. No. 14-
ranked Missouri (24-9) opens
against Xavier, Ohio, followed by
No. 17 Duke (22-8) against Texas
A&M (17-13) and Auburn (17-12)
against San Diego (24-5).
The Indiana-Fairfield winner will
play the Auburn-San Diego winner
on Saturday, followed by the win
ners of the other first-round games.
“Regardless Of who it is, we’re
going to have to work hard,” said Al
ford, the team leader at 21.8 points a
game. “Fairfield plays hard. They’re
an aggressive team, from what we’ve
seen of them. In the whole tourney,
regardless who we face, it’s going to
be very competitive.”
Fairfield is led by 6-8 senior for
ward Jeff Gromos at 20.2 points and
9.1 rebounds a game.
“Playing a team like Indiana and a
coach like Bob Knight is a great thrill
for me and our program,” said
Fairfield second-year coach Mitch
Buonaguro, whose Stags were
beaten by another Big Ten team, Il
linois, in last year’s tournament.
“They’re just an outstanding team. I
think they have the capability of win
ning the whole thing.
“Anytime you get the 16th seed
playing the No.l seed, everyone’s
going to say it’s one of the biggest
mismatches of the tournament,” he
said. “But we’re just going to go out
and do the best we can and play as
hard as we can.”
Duke, an at-large tourney entrant,
is making its fourth straight NCAA
appearance despite the loss of the
top four scorers from last year’s Fi
nal Four team. The Blue Devils lost
to eventual champion North Caro
lina State in the first round of the
Atlantic Coast Conference tourney.
Sophomore Danny Ferry leads
Duke at 14.4 points, 8 rebounds and
4.4 assists per game.
Texas A&M was the Southwest
Conference tourney champion and
is making its first NCAA appearance
since 1980. The Aggies are led by
forward Winston Crite at 16 points
and 7.3 rebounds and guard Todd
Holloway at 13 points a game.
Missouri is coming off a victory
over Kansas for the Big Eight tour
nament title and its second straight
NCAA appearance. The Tigers,
who lost to Alabama-Birmingham in
the first round last year, are led by
junior forward Derrick Chievous at
25 points a game.
Xavier, which lost to Alabama last
year in the first round, captured the
Midwestern Collegiate Conference
championship. The Musketeers’ top
scorer is Byron Larkin at 24.8 points
a game.
Both Auburn and San Diego were
at-large entrants. Auburn, which lost
to eventual national champion
Louisville in the regional final last
year, is led by Jeff Moore at 17.2
points and 9.3 rebounds.
San Diego won the West Coast
Athletic Conference regular-season
title but lost to Pepperdine in the
conference tournament semifinals.
Scott Thompson is the team’s top
scorer and rebounder at 15.9 points
and 7.5 rebounds.
Penn faces enormous task
against No.2 North Carolina
CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) —Penn
Coach Tom Schneider —whose
team won its NCAA berth as Ivy
League champ and drew No. 2
North Carolina in the East Region
first round — says his players will
“try to pull something off’ against
Dean Smith’s Tar Heels.
Penn meets North Carolina to
night following matchups that begin
with No. 19 Texas Christian against
Marshall at 11 a.m., followed by No.
18 Notre Dame versus Middle Ten
nessee and Navy against Michigan.
Schneider’s 13-13 Quakers are
facing an experienced, 29-3 team
that is accustomed to pressure and is
playing near its home turf, the coach
said.
“We know we’re playing a great
team, and against one of the greatest
coaches who’s ever been in the game,
but we’re going to work at it,”
Schneider said.
Smith’s club visited Penn’s home
floor, The Palestra, Jan. 3, playing
La Salle in a doubleheader that also
featured a Penn-Notre Dame mat
chup in which the Quakers blew a
15-point lead in a 71-67 loss. Smith
said he remembers that.
“Beating Penn will certainly not
be a given,” Smith said. “I remember
what they did to us in the 1979 tour
nament at Raleigh.”
That day, Penn beat the third-
ranked Tar Heels on the way to the
Final Four.
Smith, whose Tar Heels lost 68-67
Sunday to North Carolina State in
the Atlantic Coast Conference bas
ketball, said losing the tournament
won’t cause his team to feel guilty
going into the NCAA tournament.
“Losing the ACC Tournament
championship ... or losing to Notre
Dame .... I think you start question
ing yourself,” Smith said. “But that
can be a healthy sign. We can learn
from this. I think we can beat Penn.
I think we can defeat anyone. But
anyone can beat us.”
Penn center Bruce Lefkowitz said
his team has experience against top-
ranked teams.
“We’re loose,” Lefkowitz said.
“We have no pressure on us. They’re
No. 2 in the nation. They have a
little on them .... I expect to sur
prise a few people down on Tobacco
Road.”
In the East Region opener, Mar
shall will be fresh off a victory in the
Southern Conference tournament
when it meets TCU.
Marshall coach Rick Huckabay
says looking at TCU is like looking in
a mirror.
“They’re so much like us,” Hucka
bay said. “They have the same chem
istry. Coach (Jim) Killingsworth likes
to use the matchup on defense, they
work hard to get good shots, and
they play as a team rather than as a
collection of individuals.”
