Rockets set
for Magic
matchup
c
GALVESTON (AP) — Al
though they'll have to skirt
around a hurricane to get to Or
lando, the Houston Rockets like
their chances against the Magic
in the NBA Finals.
"They play the same way we
do,” Mario Elie said. "They’ve
got a premier post-up player and
they’ve got 3-point shooters.”
Houston coach Rudy Tom-
janovich said he expects an ex
citing series, with Hakeem Ola-
juwon squaring off against
Shaquille O'Neal, but he’s con
cerned about the Magic’s wealth
of young talent.
"It’s a big challenge because
they have so many weapons,”
Tomjanovich said Sunday night
moments after watching Orlando
beat Indiana in Game 7 of the
Eastern Conference finals.
He downplayed the signifi-

eanc© of Houston’s experience as
defending champion against an
Orlando team playing in the fi
nals for the first time.
"Everybody's going to make a
big deal out of that, but they
have so much talent,” Tom
janovich said. “We didn't have
much experience last year. We
didn’t have anybody who had
won it except Earl Cureton.
"Hakeem had been to the fi
nals as a young player but most
of our guys hadn’t been there.
These guys, they've got a good
coach, good players and a good
system. They're quite capable of
winning the championship.”
Tomjanovich wouldn’t say
whether he’d stick with the same
small lineup that started the
last two games against San An
tonio in the Western Conference
finals. But he acknowledged he
at least has that option, whej
he might not have had it apb
Indiana’s bigger front line,
The Hakeem vs. Shi:
matchup "should be a dsiilt,
Tomjanovich said. “I know It
fans are going to be excite
about seeing these guys got;
against each other, but wee
ways have to re-emphasize iti
the Rockets against the Mag::
not just that matchup.”
Orlando routs Indiana, advance;
□ The Magic make their first-ever Fi
nals appearance by defeating the
Pacers 105-81 in Game Seven.
Just as they promised they would, the Magic
shrugged off Friday night’s 27-point disaster in In
dianapolis and used a hot-shooting third quarter
to bury the Pacers and take a 19-point lead into
the final period.
The fourth quarter was never close, thanks to a
shower of 3-pointers, three by Dennis Scott and
one by Hardaway. Scott’s trey with 4:34 left made
it 96-72.
Scott finished with 19 points on 7-of-ll shoot
ing. Hardaway added 17 and Horace Grant 16.
Reggie Miller, whose 36 points in Game 6 was
the reason the Pacers were here in the first place,
had only 12 and missed 8-of-l3 shots. He left the
game for good with 3:53 to play.
Dale Davis led Indiana with 15 points and 14 re
bounds. Rik Smits had just 10 points in 24 minutes.
The Magic, in their sixth season, reached the fi
nals after playing only 20 postseason games. The
last team to make such a rapid rise was the 1976-
77 Portland Trail Blazers, who rolled all the way
to the title.
Because Indiana could not win a single game
away from its home court, the Pacers’ season end
ed the same way it did last year, with a loss on an
opponent’s home court in a seventh game of the
conference finals. Last season, it was a four-point
loss to the New York Knicks, the team Indiana
beat to get to this series.
They never recovered from their third-quarter
shooting woes and got more and more rattled as
shots bounced off the rim and the Magic got bas
kets in transition.
The Magic were so good, not even going 10-of-24
from the free throw line bothered them, mainly be
cause they made 57 percent of their field goals.
Hardaway’s defense led the way in Orlande:
20-5 spurt early in the third quarter had thePa:
ers down by 18 points with 4:48 left in the perio:
He went after every loose ball, triggering sever:
fast-break baskets as the Magic hit eight of the:
first nine shots in the quarter.
The Magic made 11-of-17 shots in the perio:
building their lead to 80-61 before Byron Scott t
two free throws to end the quarter.
The Magic hit six 3-pointers in the first hal
and their fourth of the first quarter gave them if
27-16 lead. The Pacers then outscored Orlando It
3 to move ahead, but a cold spell allowed the Mat
ic to take a 52-45 edge at halftime.
O’Neal had 17 points before going to the bent:
late in the half with two fouls. Smits picked upb
second late in the first quarter and played ob
nine minutes in the half.

GeorgANDIS: Football
team needs new look in ’95
Continued from Page 3
things are now, either the of
fense, defense or special teams
is introduced as everyone
cheers wildly and waves their
12th Man towels. This is good,
but it could be better.
Picture this: An 8 p.m. kick
off time. Instantaneously, every
light in Kyle Field goes off. Four
maroon-filtered spotlights start
blazing through the crowd,
highlighting the 12th Man tow
els as the crowd works itself
into a frenzy.
Suddenly, the stereo system
kicks into Lenny Kravitz’s “Are
You Gonna Go My Way?” at
the optimum decibel level for a
stadium packed with 70,000
people. The starting team
takes the field one by one, in
troduced by James Earl Jones.
The other team will be so
intimidated the players won’t
be able to find their way to
the bench.
Step Two: Lend a mysteri
ous air to some of our play
ers— amely, Leeland McElroy.
What can separate him from
the rest of the Heisman hope
fuls? A name change, that’s
what. In fact, he doesn’t need
a name at all, a simple sym
bol will do—like the artist for
merly known as Prince.
What that symbol might be
would be left up to Leeland
and the promotions people. It
must inspire both great speed
on 80-yard gallops down the
sideline and great power on 10-
yard bursts up the middle.
I suppose he could use $ as
his name, but that would real
ly only apply when he left for
the NFL. Maybe a blend of the
school seal, the Texas flag and
the Heisman Trophy.
Step Three: Brandon
Mitchell, our huge defensive
end and Outland Award candi
date, needs to start making
some motion after every sack or
tackle for a loss he makes this
year. Some guys bow to the
crowd, others point skyward
and some even make the motion
of swinging a baseball bat.
Mitchell’s move would have
to be totally unique, and to
help him, R.C. Slocum needs to
call on the Texas Aggie Dance
Team. Somewhere in one of
their routines must be some
thing Mitchell can use to at
tract the camera’s attention
and delight the crowd.
I was thinking somewhere
along the lines of doing the
Windmill (an old breakdancing
move), coming out of it with a
back flip and ending it by doing
the splits. I know it sounds
tough, but this is for a national
championship.
Step Four: Much like Ne
braska’s coach Tom Osborne
last year, Slocum must be as
boring as possible in every sin
gle interview. Osborne never
said anything more than how he
wanted only for the team to be
proud and that he did not care
about individual recognition.
The Cornhuskers took the na
tional championship, and Os
borne became a media darling.
Slocum must take Osborne’s
game a step further by not
speaking at all during the regu
lar season. He can answer most
questions by simply nodding or
shaking his head. Immediate
attention will be given to A&M
as writers and commentators
try to speculate on why R.C.
won’t open his mouth. Heck, he
might even get on TV with Bar
bara Walters.
A simple four-step plan to
win A&M a national champi
onship. Now all the team has
to do is avoid injuries, hope for
other teams to be upset, win
all their games, be invited to
the national championship
game and win it.
No problem.

Rangers’ win
ARLINGTON (AP) — Mick
ey Tettleton homered twice anc
drove in six runs, breakinf
out of a l-for-25 slump to
back Darren Oliver’s three
hit pitching over six inning;
and send the Texas Ranger;
past the Minnesota Twins, 7-2
on Sunday.
Tettleton, a DH in 35 of the
Rangers first 36 games, played
in right field for the first time
since July 19, 1994 and it|
seemed to agree with him. Hi;
4-for-4 game and six RBIs both
matched career highs.
During his career with the
Detroit Tigers, Tettleton
played catcher, DH, first base
and the outfield.
Tettleton, batting .150 in his
previous 17 games, drove in two
runs with a first-inning double
and added a run-scoring single
in the third.
Then he homered in the fifth
and again in the seventh
The homers gave him nine for
the season.
Meanwhile, Oliver (2-1), a
converted reliever, established a
career-high with seven strike
outs and walked three in his
longest major league outing,
helping the Rangers to their
eighth victory in 11 games.

atmosphere that exists here in
College Station.”
Not only Slocum’s expertise is
available to the campers. The
entire A&M coaching staff will
be at the camp along with for
mer A&M players and coaches,
Each day of the camp in
volves five hours of practice and
drills during the day and culmi
nates with a nightly competition
known as “Aggie Ball.” The
players divide up into teams and
play each other on either Simp
son Drill Field or Kyle Field,
with the championship game be
ing played on Kyle Field on the
last night of camp.
Although the coaches know
that not all of the players will
play on the college level,
and even fewer will play
for the Aggies, Cassidy said
their desire to help all the
players is universal.
“Our goals for the camp are
to maintain a safe environment
for the kids," Cassidy said, "to
teach them about the game of
football and to ensure that they
have a good time while visiting
Texas A&M.”
