SAN ANTONIO (AP) — After just one season, Tim Duncan is drawing comparisons to the likes of David Robinson and Kevin McHale. Duncan, a major force in leading the San Antonio Spurs to a record turnaround this season, was over whelmingly voted the NBA’s Rookie of the Year on Monday. “It’s a goal I had coming into this year,” he said. “I wanted to play well this year and win this award.” The No. 1 draft pick from Wake Forest received 113 of 116 votes (97 percent) from a panel of NBA writers and broadcasters. New Jersey’s Keith Van Horn got the other three votes. Duncan’s margin of victory as the largest since Shaquille O’Neal received 98 percent of the vote in 1992-93. “He’s big time, just like David (Robinson) was and just like Shaq was,” Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said. “His demeanor and approach to this whole business is uncommon and extraordinary.” With Duncan in the lineup and Robinson returning from foot and back injuries, the Spurs went 56- 26 in the regular season, an improvement of 36 victories from their 1996-97 mark. San Antonio set another league record by holding oppo nents to 41.1 percent shooting. After missing the playoffs last Poommates.

He averaged 21.1 points, 11.9 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 2.5 blocks per game and shot .549 from the field. He was the 19th rookie in NBA history to average at least 20 points and 10 rebounds per game. Duncan led all rookies in scor ing, rebounding, blocks and field goal percentage and ranked sev enth in assists. He ranked third in rebounding, fourth in field goal percentage, sixth in blocks and 13th in scoring among all players. Duncan joined Ralph Sampson (1983-84) and Robinson (1989-90) as the only players to win Rookie of the Month honors every month since the NBA started giving out the award in the 1981-82 season. “It’s been a great year,” Duncan said. “It’s been a lot of fun.” Lazarus Continued from Page 5 Already projected to be a high seed before winning the Big 12 tournament, the Aggies will learn just how high on May 5 when the NCAA announces the seeds. Stay Tuned After finishing second in the Big 12 and winning the confer ence tournament, the Aggies have already made a remarkable turnaround from last year’s dis appointing campaign. Although some teams might become complacent in this situa tion, A&M Coach Tim Cass has other plans for his. “We’re not finished yet,” he said. -Al Lazarus is a sophomore journalism major. Marichal sustains injuries in accident in Dominican SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic (AP) — Hall of Fame pitcher Juan Marichal sustained serious head injuries when his car ran off the highway and crashed before dawn Monday. Marichal, 60, the Dominican sports minister, was a passenger in the sport utility vehicle and briefly lost consciousness. Police said weather was not a factor and the accident was being investigated. Marichal was listed in serious but stable condition with injuries to the head, neck, spine and left leg at Santo Domingo’s Armed Forces Hospital, said a hospital director, Pedro Delgado Valdez. He was later transferred to a medical center in the capital to undergo head X-rays'. “We will keep him under con stant observation, but his situation isn’t critical,” Delgado Valdez said. The accident happened at 5 a.m. in Villa Altagracia, about 30 miles north of Santo Domingo. Police said Marichal was returning to Santo Domingo from the provincial capital of Santiago. His driver, Bernardino Lopez Ferreras, and a security guard, Eduardo Rodriguez, also were seri ously injured and were hospitalized in stable condition. Marichal had a 243-142 record while pitching for the San Francisco Giants, Boston Red Sox and Los Angeles Dodgers. He won 20 or more games on seven occasions. He pitched a no-hitter in 1963.
