Canucks drop Stars in game one
The Associated Press
DALLAS — Martin Gelinas scored
off a faceofF with 4:39 to play Mon
day night and the Vancouver
Canucks held on for a 6-4 victory
over the Dallas Stars in the opening
game of their Western Conference
semifmal series.
Nathan Lafayette won the faceoff
and passed the puck directly on the
stick of Gelinas. Gelinas sent a 25-
foot slap shot past goaltender Darcy
Wakaluk’s stick side for the game
winning goal after the Stars had ral
lied from a three-goal deficit to tie it
at 4.
Trevor Linden scored for the
Canucks with 16 seconds left after
Dallas had pulled its goalie.
The Canucks built a 4-1 lead but
Dallas scored two late goals in the
second period and tied it at 16:03
in the third on a rebound shot by
Mike McPhee to excite the sellout
crowd of 16,914 in Reunion Arena.
Pavel Bure’s short wrist shot after
a perfect drop pass by Trevor Linden
and defenseman’s Jyrki Lumme’s
E ower-play goal put the Canucks up
y three goals. Lumme walked by
three Stars defensemen to go on a
pointblank shot.
Dallas came back on a power-
play goal by Richard Matvichuk and
McPhee’s first playoff goal when he
rebounded his own shot.
Vancouver scored two quick
goals by Murray Craven and Geoff
Courtnall to take a 2-1 lead in the
first period.
Craven fired a wrist shot from
the top of the circle to beat Wakaluk
on the stick side with less than two
minutes into the game. Four min
utes later Courtnall stole a pass by
Mike Modano and slapped a shot
past Wakaluk on the glove side. Both
goals came with the teams playing
four-on-four.
Dallas rallied from the sloppy
start when Paul Broten rebounded
his own shot against Kirk McLean to
cut the deficit to a goal at intermis
sion.
The Stars and Canucks, meeting
in the playoffs for the first time, will
play in the second game of the best-
of-7 series on Wednesday night at
Reunion Arena.
Dallas won the regular-season se
ries against the Canucks 3-1 with
Andy Moog in goal.
The Stars advanced to the semifi
nals by defeating the St. Louis Blues
in four straight and hadn’t played in
eight days. Vancouver beat Calgary
4-to-3 including a double-overtime
victory in Game 7.

University at home, before falling
to SWC champion Texas in the
second round.
The tennis team reached the
championship of the SWC tour
nament, after posting a 1 5-9
record in the regular season.
In their initial season, the soc
cer team under coach G. Guerrieri
was named the top first year pro
gram in the nation. In his pre
sentation, Guerrieri told why the
first year was so special.
“We went into this year wanti
ng to make the rest of this depart
ment proud of us, and we’ve
done that, “ Guerrieri said.
“We’ve had a great year, and
no matter what we achieve in
years to come, this will always be
a special, special season.”
Coach Hickey was periodically
choked up during her presenta
tion, but was composea enough
to praise her team in the highest
“Ladies and gentlemen,
Hickey proclaimed as the players
lined up on the stage in front of
her, “this is one of the best 16
teams in the country.”
“We have arrived, this is the
best team in A&M history.”
The verbal highlight of the
evening came from softball coach
Bob Brock, whose Lady Aggies are
currently ranked 1 1 th in the
country. In his closing quotes,
the last presentation of the
evening, Brock thanked his se
niors and his staff, then pro
claimed boldly, “We’re going to
the World Series.”
Purdue’s ‘Big
Dog’ declares
for NBA draft
The Associated Press
GARY, Ind. — Glenn
Robinson returned to his
hometown Monday to say he
is ready for the NBA, wiiere
he is expected to be one of
>h
the brightest and wealthiest
young stars.
Across the street from the
rickety house where he grew
up, in the high school gym
where teammates called him
Lurch before he was dubbed
Big Dog, the Purdue All-
American announced he will
forgo his senior year to enter
next month’s draft.
Robinson, college basket
ball’s player of the year, is
likely to oe the No. 1 pick,
and his agent speculates he
could sign a contract push
ing $ 100 million.
Robinson said money is
not the reason he is leaving
college.
And if he feels he has
nothing left to prove in col
lege after a season in which
he led the nation in scoring
with a 30.3 average, he
didn’t say that, either.
During Sexual Assault Awareness Week - April 11-14, Aggies remembered those wh
been assaulted by adding a link to the chain ana a brick to the wall constructed
The Center For Drug Prevention & Education.
