UTEP stuns top-seeded Kansas
Cincinnati, UMass, New Mexico St. surprise NCAA tournament
DAYTON, Ohio (AP) — The last time
Texas-El Paso won a game this big, the school
was called Texas Western.
The Miners, junking the offense that got
them into the tournament, shocked No. 2
Kansas 66-60 Sunday and knocked the Mid
west Region's top seed out of the NCAA tour
nament.
UTEP (27-6) used a spread, trying to slow
down the game and befuddle Kansas coach
Roy Williams. The Miners hadn't even prac
ticed much in the delay.
“The first time all year was yesterday,"
UTEP coach Don Haskins said. “(Williams)
couldn't have seen it before unless he got a
tape of yesterday's practice."
Haskins has 606th victories in 31 years at
Texas-El Paso, the biggest a 72-65 win over
Kentucky in the 1966 championship game, the
first NCAA title for an all-black starting five.
The school changed its name from Texas West
ern in 1967, and since then had appeared in 10
NCAA tournaments, never going beyond sec
ond round.
“Coach Haskins has been around the block
a few times," Williams said.
Haskins decided on the spread after watch
ing Kansas rout Howard 100-67 Friday.
“I think all good teams come from a good
coach," UTEP senior said Prince Stewart. "He
has confidence in us to let us go out and play."
The Miners realized it might be their best
chance to beat s, an 111/2-point favorite.
"We thought it was a great plan," Stewart
said. "We started working on it in practice yes
terday. We figured holding onto the ball longer
would make getting some penetration that
much easier. We said, 'Let's get the open shot
and let the big guys get into the game.'"
UTEP's defense frustrated Kansas, and the
offense ran a Princeton-like weave, using al
most the entire 45-second clock before shoot-
a big apple out there and everybody wants!

day. I thought Kansas might be the only

Sunday's victory ranked right up there
with the magic of '66.
“This is one of the best, Kansas being
ranked as high as they were," Haskins said.

Fumble leads Riders past Montreal 17-16
SAN MARCOS, Texas (AP)
— Chris Thieneman forced a
fumble by sacking Montreal
quarterback Anthony Dilweg
late in the fourth quarter Sunday,
helping San Antonio beat the
Machine 17-16 in a WLAF game.
Dilweg, assigned to Montreal
by the Los Angeles Raiders, had
led the Machine from its own 10
to San Antonio's 24 with 4:04 re
maining before the fumble. Mark
Ledbetter recovered the ball and
the Riders ran out the clock in
both teams' season opener.
Ivory Lee Brown, a first-year
player from Arkansas-Pine Bluff,
carried 24 times for 123 yards, in
cluding a 15-yard touchdown, to
lead San Antonio.
Former Detroit Lions and
Kansas City Chiefs receiver Pete
Mandley put Montreal ahead 6-0
in the first quarter with a 73-yard
punt return.
After Brown's score gave the
Riders a 7-6 lead midway
through the period, Dilweg hit
Mandley with a 14-yard touch
down pass that put the Machine
back in front, 13-6, with 10:01 to
go before halftime.
Former Baylor quarterback
Brad Goebel, assigned to the Rid
ers by the Philadelphia Eagles,
led San Antonio on an 11-play,
61-yard drive that culminated in
his 1-yard touchdown run to
make it 14-13 at halftime.
The only second-half scores
were a 38-yard field goal by San
Antonio's Jim Gallery and a 29-
yard kick by Montreal's Bjorn
Nittmo.
The Riders, who moved 45
miles north to San Marcos this
year because of poor attendance,
drew just under 10,700 to South
west Texas State's Bobcat Stadi
um. Capacity at the facility is
22,000.

pointers to give him 12 first half
points and his team a 42-34 half
time lead.
"Our kids came in believing
that we could win," Barone saio.
"You have to take the positive ap
proach and ignore the negatives.
The negative thing about it was
that Texas beat us twice (before)
this year. They beat us at home
and massacred us in Austin.
"But this was a new day, a
new game, a new season. The
kids were mentally prepared."
Unfortunately for Barone, the
Aggies were not physically pre
pared in the second half. The
Longhorns regained the fast-
paced tempo that they lacked be
fore halftime.
Texas scored twelve consecu
tive points midway through the
second half, five of which came
from leading scorer Terrence
Rencher. The freshman picked up
17 points after intermission and 24
for the game.
After that run, the Longhorns
never looked back. The Aggies
ran out of steam and could not
come closer than eight points.
Texas head coach Tom Pen
ders had said after the two teams
met five days earlier that A&M
would be prepared for the re
match. Therefore, the Aggie on
slaught didn't surprise him.
"1 knew Tony, being the fox
that he is, was going to have new
things for us defensively," Pen
ders said. "Give Texas A&M a lot
of the credit. Also give Tony
Barone a lot of the credit."
The youthful Aggies had a
hard time keeping up with the ex
perience and the stamina of Texas,
which Barone said made the dif
ference.
FORT WORTH, Texas (AP)-
It's not the NCAA, but NIT victi
ries count just the same forTexi
Christian coach Moe Iba.
Iba's Horned Frogs face Pm
due (17-14) Monday night in Wes
Lafayette, Ind., hoping to tie
school record for victories in a se^
son with 24.
The Homed Frogs (23-10) bej
Long Beach State 73-61 in the firs
round of the NIT Thursday nigli
in their first post-season appear
ance in five years.
For Iba, the victory was a mile
stone. He had never won moe >
than 22 games in a year. His 1981 .
83 Nebraska squad, which als
made the NIT, went 22-10.
Only two teams in the 78-yejj
history of TCU's basketball prtl
gram nave won more games thlB
this year's squad, which wasdeo
mated in December when founffl
serves quit and Iba had to suitiij %
equipment manager Brande
Aldrich.

Killingsworth led his final Id

second-round NCAA appearance
Iba had hoped 22 regular-$ft
son victories, including 12 on
road, would get TCU into ttii
NCAA tournament. But thosi
hopes were dashed when
Frogs blew two double-digit lead:
in an 87-84 double-overtime los!
to Houston in the Southwest Con
ference semifinals last week.
Houston beat Texas for tk
league crown and both wentlc
the NCAA tourney, where
each lost in the first round. ICC
was left with the NIT.
"Hey, the NIT is the next-best
thing," Iba said. "It beats staying
home again. We're glad tostillht
playing ball. There's a lot of teams
who aren't."
The Frogs failed to make even
the NIT the past three seasons
spite records of 16-13, 17-13 and
18-10.
TCU is led by 6-11 senior cen
ter Reggie Smith, whose 24-poinl
11-rebound performance against
Long Beach State gave him
double-doubles this year. Heaver
