With Eve conferences go ing l-for-9 in the first round, western teams landed with a thud loud enough to be heard clear across the Mississippi. Most embarrassing was the performance of the Pacif ic - 1 0, which sent fo u r teams, including two No. 5 seeds, UCLA and California. Both were gone after the first round. “I don’t think anybody feels good about that,” said Arizona coach Lute Olson, whose team is the lone sur vivor from the Pacific and Mountain time zones. “Cer tainly we’re disappointed about that, but there’s noth ing we can do about it.” The tourney appearances by Big West, Western Ath letic, West Coast and Big Sky conference schools were just as brief. New Mexico State, New Mexico, Hawaii, Pepperdine and Boise State all went down in the first round. Olson knows something about underachieving at tournament time, having seen his team lose in the first round as a No. 2 seed last year and a No. 3 seed the year before. ”We let the conference down last year,” he said. “This year it’s our turn to do the job.” After beating Loyola of Maryland and Virginia handily, Arizona meets Louisville in Thursday’s re gional semifinal.

Southwest Texas coach resigns after first-round loss The Associated Press SAN MARCOS — Jim Wooldridge, who guided Southwest Texas State to its first ever NCAA Tournament this year and a 25-7 record, was named Monday as Louisiana Tech’s new head men’s basketball coach. The announcement came from Louisiana Tech President Dr. Dan Reneau and Athletic Di rector Jerry Stovall. Wooldridge’s appointment is pending approval of the Louisiana Board of Trustees. Wooldridge will be introduced to the media at a press conference at 1 1:30 a.m. Tuesday in Ruston. "Jim Wooldridge was offered the position as Tech’s men’s basketball coach Sunday and ac cepted this morning,” Stovall said. Southwest Texas officials said a search for Wooldridge’s replacement will begin immedi ately. Athletic director Richard Hannan said he hoped a successor was named quickly because of the approach of the signing period for NCAA national letters of intent. Wooldridge takes over for Jerry Loyd who was head coach for five years after three years as an assistant. Loyd resigned at Tecli after a 2-25 season. to run d His contract wa?

Michaels and his teammates would be pleased to match their fe male counterparts’ performance this past weekend at the women’s end of the championships this past weekend in Indianapolis. The women finished 20 th overall in the tournament, their highest fin ish since 1985, when they finished at 11 th place. The women’s team was led by ju nior Susie Geyer who finished fourth in the 100-yard breaststroke, and was part of the 400-yard freestyle re lay team that earned honorable men tion All-American honors. Geyer said the team’s high plac ing in the meet was not a surprise to her and her teammates. ‘‘We went in thinking we could 10, we didn’t warn than finishing thai make the top anything less high. ” Geyer said. A 1 0th place finish in the yard free relay was much more that to the women’s team. Their fin ishing time of 1 minute, 32.94 sec onds may only have been tenth-best at the tournament, but it was the fastest time ever for die women MICH BELIN HEAT TONI March 24-27 Memorial Student Center Major Guests: Bear 1 C Greg Lois McMaster Bujold CkARl.ES DeLInt Julius Schwartz Nick Smith Events and Such at the Con: c o n Art Show & Auction - Autograph Sessions - Dealers Doom (thousands of square feet stufFed with rare and unusual merchandise) - Panel Discussions - Movies - Open Gaming - The Qocky Horror Picture Show - Costume Contest - Masquerade Ball - Anime Doom - QUEST - Guest Deception - Vampire hive Action Pole Playing - Demos - Deadtime Stories - and Much Much More!
