Indiana slips by LSI! 77-76
to advance to Final Four
CINCINNATI (AP) — Rick
Calloway put in a rebound with
seven seconds left to give No. 3
Indiana a 77-76 victory over
Louisiana State Sunday and ad
vance the top-seeded Hoosiers to
the Final Four for the fourth time
under Coach Bob Knight.
Indiana, 28-4, will meet the
winner of the West Regional Sat
urday in New Orleans.
Callowav’s basket, a follow of
an air ball by teammate Daryl
Thomas, gave the Hoosiers their
first lead since halftime. A turn
around jumper by Nikita Wilson
at the buzzer fell off the rim, and
the 24-15 Tigers were denied
their second straight Final Four
appearance, this one 90 miles
from their Baton Rouge, La.,
campus.
Louisiana State, the 10th seed
in the region, broke from a 47-46
halftime deficit with seven
[straight points. After Indiana
scored four in a row, the Tigers
i went on a 12-0 run as Indiana
| went scoreless for 5:10. Wilson
scored six of the points in the run
that gave Louisiana State a 63-51
lead with 12:26 to play.
Indiana began chipping away
at the lead despite the fact that its
All-American guard, Steve Al
ford, managed just two points in
the second half, finishing with 20.
Louisiana State led 75-66 when
Calloway, who is from Cincinnati,
missed a dunk with 4:38 to play.
Following a televison timeout, the
Hoosiers took over.
Dean Garrett, who finished
with 19 points and 15 rebounds,
dunked a rebound, and Joe Hill
man, who had been inserted into
the game by Knight for the first
time at the timeout, converted a
three-point play after a steal by
Thomas to make it 75-73 with
3:45 to play.
Thomas made two free throws
with 3:06 to play, and the Hoo
siers were within two.
The Tigers then went into a
delay game with three guards in
the lineup. The teams traded
turnovers until Darryl Joe of
Louisiana State was fouled by
Keith Smart with 50 seconds left.
He made the front end of the 1-
and-1, but Smart answered with
two free throws with 40 seconds
left when he grabbed a rebound
of his own miss.
Fess Irvin, who scored 14
points for the Tigers as a reserve,
went to the foul line with 26 sec
onds left and missed, setting the
stage for Calloway’s rebound bas
ket.
Thomas finished with 16
points and Calloway had 11 as the
Hoosiers outscored the Tigers
21-4 from the free-throw line.
Alford, who made four of nine
shots from the field, made all 10
of his free-throw attempts and
handed out seven assists.
Nikita Wilson led the Tigers
with 20 points, while Anthony
Wilson had 15 and Bernard
Woodside 13.
Indiana is the first Big Ten
team to advance to the Final Four
since the Hoosiers won the 1981
national championship.
Knight has won the title twice,
1976 and 1981, in his three pre
vious appearances.
Louisiana State was the only
team from last year’s field of
eight to reach that stage again this
year.
Knight was assessed a technical
foul by referee Tom Fraim with
11:39 left in the first half when he
walked onto the court during a
timeout to clarify a call.

UNLV rallied from way behind
on the strength of the 3-point shot to
shock an Iowa team that held a com

into the first game’s fourth inning,

only three hits.
