guirre. Motto feud again
fter star forward’s ejection
/■ DALLAS (AP) — Mark Aguirre,
,’Hho was shoved by teammate Derek
: ; ;Harper and called a quitter and a
..■ward by Dallas Coach Dick Motta
. ■ter being ejected from the Maver-
: ■ks’ NBA game Saturday night with
IHetroit, was contrite later.
|H “I think an apology is needed,”
■giiirre said after the game, which
‘■ent to the final seconds before Dal-
...Bs pulled out a 122-1 18 victory.
B “At the earliest convenience, I will
B)ologize to Coach Motta and the
;'Bam for getting kicked out of such
■ important game,” Aguirre said.
^B Aguirre had 11 points on 4-of-14
SBiooting at the time of his ejection,
ami Dallas had a nine-point lead.
I,Benoit closed to within 67-62 by
Balftime.
B The game was a physical one, and
referee Jack Nies had to officiate the
by himself after referee Bill
glaar was caught in a scuffle between
iBlavericks center James Donaldson
;Bid Pistons center Bill Laimbeer in
first minute of the game. Saar
suffered a hyper-extended knee and
wldn’t continue.
Nies ejected Aguirre 20 seconds
fore halftime after Aguirre com-
Jained he was being roughed up
ithout fouls being called.
M When Aguirre walked by the
^■avericks’ Bench, Motta, kneeling
pi the sidelines, told Aguirre to stay
■dm. Aguirre responded by arguing
tiore. That resulted in two techni
cals and an automatic ejection.
Harper and Dallas guard Rolando
Blackman had tried to restrain
Aguirre from arguing with Nies, but
Aguirre refused to listen. After
Aguirre’s ejection, as the forward
walked past the press table, Motta
yelled, “What about the game?”
Aguirre yelled back, “I don’t give
a (. . .) about the game.”
Later, Aguirre denied making the
statement, but some of the Dallas
players said they heard it.
Harper, who is Aguirre’s best
friend on the squad, was so upset
with Aguirre that as Aguirre left the
court, Harper shoved him in the
back and muttered, “Jerk.” A chorus
of boos rang out through the sellout
crowd of 17,007 as Aguirre headed
up the ramp to the dressing room.
Later, Harper said, “I don’t think
he was a jerk, but I think it was a
jerky situation. I’ve never seen any
thing like it.”
Moments later, when the Maver
icks went into the dressing room at
halftime, several players said Motta
was enraged. He yelled at Aguirre,
calling him, among other things,
“coward” and “quitter.”
That’s similar to what Motta called
Aguirre after what he considered a
mediocre performance by Aguirre
in December 1984 in Milwaukee —
one of several well-publicized dis
agreements the player and coach
have experienced over the past seve
ral years.
Aguirre yelled back, and at that
point, Donaldson positioned himself
in front of Aguirre’s locker and told
him to cool it, other players said.
Motta continued yelling, Aguirre
continued responding, and Don
aldson continued telling Aguirre to
cool it.
One player said it took awhile, but
Aguirre, looking at the 7-foot-2,
272-pound Donaldson, “eventually
got the message.”
Aguirre said after the game, “I
don’t want to be kicked out of any
game. I just thought I got hit on a
couple of my shots. I just wanted to
talk to the ref. I know Coach Motta
was upset, and I know I will apol
ogize to him. The great thing is that
we won the game without me on the
floor.”
Motta said Aguirre used poor
judgment.
“He is paid to play, and I could
not believe the way he acted to
night,” said Motta. “It was very im
mature on his part. I question the
judgment of his actions. But the rest
of the team pulled together, which
was another step in the right direc
tion.”
Blackman said, “We can’t afford
to lose Mark. And he shouldn’t have
lost his temper. I guess he was frus
trated. But the important thing is we
rallied around each other and won
the game.”

“I wanted to get a tournament win
under my belt,” said Evert Lloyd,
currently ranked third in the world.
“I kept hearing everyone say I
hadn’t won a title since the French
(Open) and it was starting to bug
me.”
Evert Lloyd, 32, of Boca Raton,
Fla., said Sunday’s match was proba
bly her best performance since re
turning to the tour three tourna
ments ago.
“After the first round here, I
really played some of the best tennis
of my career,” she said. “I don’t re
member beating Pam this badly in
some time. You could see Pam was
stalling a little bit, trying to break up
my rhythm. She was trying every
thing, and I didn’t want to relax for
a minute.”
Shriver, 25, of Lutherville, Md.,
said she never felt she was in the
match.
“1 felt like 1 didn’t have a stitch of
clothes on,” Shriver said. “I looked
down and said, ‘Yeah, I’ve got my
skirt on, yeah I’ve got a top on.’ I put
on a wristband to make sure I had
something on. I felt exposed out
there.”
Shriver said she talked to herself
during the match more than usual.
“When I got frustrated I talk to
myself,” she said. “That was my
worst match in quite a while. I hit
that one good shot, wasn’t that nice?
I guess I peaked a little late.”
Crenshaw
takes USF&G
by 3 strokes
NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Ben
Crenshaw used his reliable putter
to fend off would-be challengers
and score a 3-stroke victory over
Curtis Strange Sunday in the
USF&G Classic.
Crenshaw, never headed and
never tied over the final 18 holes,
compiled a 5-under-par 67 and
acquired the 13th title of his ca
reer with a 268 total, 20 strokes
under par on the Lakewood
Country Club course.
The victory was worth $90,000
from the total purse of $500,000
and pushed Crenshaw’s earning
for the year to $227,957.
Crenshaw’s total was only one
off the course record. But it was
not the birdies he made that won
it, it was the critical saves of par
down the stretch.
Long noted as one of golfs
premier putters, Crenshaw was at
his best in the final round.
Although Crenshaw found it
almost impossible to keep it on
the short grass over the back
nine, his putter saved him.
He made 4 par-saving putts on
the last seven holes — the critical
factor in turning back the late bid
of Strange.
Strange, four behind at the
turn, closed to within two at one
point, but needed help from
Crenshaw to get closer. It wasn’t
forthcoming.

The doctors of optometry affiliated
with Texas State Optical know that every
contact lens prescription must be exact.
The fit must be precise. You must be
completely comfortable.
Yet every year people spend fortunes
on contacts, put them away in a drawer
and never wear them.
Because they’re uncomfortable.
They don’t fit right.
These people have never been to
Texas State Optical.
¥)u can’t afford
contact lenses
that don’t fit right.
At any price.
