The Blue Devils, who were No. 1 from start to finish in the regular season, beat No. 19 Seton Hall 81- 69 in the East Regional semifinals and now face Kentucky Saturday night. A win over the Wildcats would send Duke to Minneapolis and that fifth consecutive Final Four. On a night when the big scor ers didn't score, Duke (31-2) used a balanced attack to beat the team coach Mike Krzyzewski had indi cated he feared the most in his- bracket. Seton Hall, which beat Duke in the national semifinals in 1989, trailed 44-42 with 16:42 to play on a jumper in the lane by Terry De- here. Duke then took off on a 15-4 run, with four different players scoring to take a 59-46 with 12:10 left. Kentucky 87, UMass 77 PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Ken tucky couldn't hit the 3s, so the Wildcats made the most of a T.

Jamal Mashburn had 30 points for Kentucky, which has lived by the 3-pointer this season but made just three of 15 against Mas sachusetts. Third-seeded Massachusetts made five 3-pointers.

Now Available at 2 DAY VIDEO Open 10 a.m. to Midnight 7 days a week Season provides potential, not wins Continued from Page 7 these kids are not failures. They have worked ex tremely hard to be winners." Leading scorer David Edwards came to the fore front of a team that desperately needed a leader. He had his struggles as he tried to find his leadership role. Some of those struggles sent him to the bench early. Edwards found his groove toward the end of a season that he can't help but laugh at when looking back. "What happened to us this year was crazy if you sit back and look at it," Edwards said. "A couple of games that we were supposed to win would have turned this season around. I think we should learn from this, and we should be better next year. "Nobody who ever came to see us play could say that we just gave up or that we never went out fight ing. That sums up our whole year." Damon Johnson felt first-hand the problems that accompanied the Aggies this season, with his foot in jury in January. Even more agonizing to him than the incessant losses was having to sit out and watch his teammates play for six weeks. Johnson keeps some faith in the expression that through adversity comes strength. "Like everybody knows, we had a lot of adversity all through the season," he said. "Overall, I'm not re ally pleased with the season, but I think we've grown up a lot, and we've grown together as a team. I think that's going to help out in the long run." Right now, the long run is A&M's saving grace. Aside from the loss of seniors Shedrick Anderson and Anthony Ware, the entire team will be a year older and a year more experienced. Already, the Aggies have shown that this is a team that can compete with the Alabamas, the Hous- tons, and the Texases. The next step is to translate hard work and determination into victories. That would make this season worth the sacrifice. KARL STOLLEIS/Jto A&M head coach Tony Barone shows!aTw deal of frustration in the Aggies' 6-22 season. "The learning process is something that* hopefully have gone through this year, andtkcfl cept of how you win and how you build a prog® based on the long-term haul, and not theshorttens Barone said. "The real issue is - Have we laidafoi dation of respectability and credibility for A&Mk ketball?" That is the question.

The NCAA, in effect, had all but cut Barone's throat when it came to asking ath letes to become Aggies. "We had worked extremely hard from May through the sum mer into the beginning of the year to sign kids," Barone said. "We had to tell two kids, 'No, we don't have the scholarships.'" Barone's 6-22 team had 10 scholarship players when it began the season, but three of those were expecting to graduate after the season. By the middle of Decem ber, junior college transfer Eric Hawthorne and freshman Kevin Barker had left the team for per sonal reasons. That left the coach with six scholarship athletes, a handful of walk-ons, and two freshmen on the way. Simple addition told Barone and the A&M program they would have eight scholar ships to play next season, com pared to the 14 that programs not under NCAA punishment are al lowed to have. The NCAA is continuing to cut down on all of those programs. Schools will be allowed only 13 during the 1993-94 season, a pro gressive cut over three years from the original number of 15. Barone's hands have been tied when it comes to the five scholar ships given up by the graduating seniors and the two players who quit. Tedi Zalesky, A&M's Direc tor of Intercollegiate Athletic Compliance, said the punishment handed down by the NCAA is set in stone, and A&M must eat those scholarships in the coming year. "The penalty specifically states what they (A&M) are allowed to offer for the next year," Zalesky said. "There were not acceptable standards for people who leave or transfer or quit. "No matter what happens, they're stuck with the sanctions that were handed down." So Barone and his staff are spending the offseason making trips to the homes and schools of high school juniors, trying to pro mote the positive aspects of a pro gram that is playing under the cloud of the NCAA. "We've been doing it all year because we haven't been able to recruit seniors all year," Barone said. "We've gathered informa tion, test scores, grades, etc.,onj niors that a lot of peopled® have because they haven'll# able to spend any time doingfe "Consequently, I think we ahead of the ball park, rights How interested are these kidsf ing to be in us?
