to telecast the 1992 game between Florida State and

points, 16 rebounds and seven
blocked shots from Hakeem

six Phoenix players in double
figures and failed to grab the

a postseason spot with a victory
in any of their last three games,
but lost all three. Jeff Hornacek
scored 18 points for the Suns, al
ready assured of the No. 4 play
off spot in the Western Confer
ence. They beat back a rally led
by Olajuwon, who scored 11 of

After leading most of the
game, the Rockets faltered in the

94-83 with 3:38 to play, their
largest deficit of the game. At
one point, the Rockets went
more than five minutes without
a basket.

Weaver 6-1, 6-4, Trey Phillips beat
Brown 7-5, 6-2, and Ernesto Ponce
defeated Phillips 6-1, 6-3.
The confrontations over calls
became so heated during the
matches that umpires had to in
tervene to make some of the calls.
Phillips said Ponce played
well and deserved to win. But the
A&M senior didn't think the um
pires should have stepped in.
"In the first set he didn't miss
a shot, he played very well,"
Phillips said. "I got back early in
the second set but the umpire en
tered the game halfway in the set
and tried to take the game out of
my hands."
The Aggies will now have to
hope their solid season and No.16

by the NCAA for a seed in the na

"To go into a Washington,
with the Redskins just winning
the Super Bowl and getting to
meet Mark Rypien and Joe
Gibbs, it's been an experience,"
he said. "But I wouldn't want to
do it all over again. But at the
same time, I wouldn't exchange
it with anyone else that didn't
have the opportunity."
Smith knows once he is draft
ed, there will be a lot of money
involved in contract negotia
tions. As long as he adhere's to
his mothers advice, it won't go to
his head.
"I have to stay in the right

to fool is yourself. Youcanmail
