Page 4 SPORTS Monday, June 12,2000 THE BATTALION londay, June 12,201 New Jersey Devils beat Dallas Stars in overtime to win series R(] DALLAS (AP) — The New Jersey Devils finally won the Stanley Cup — even’if they were almost too tired to lift it once they did. Jason Amott ripped a shot from the left circle past Dallas goaltender Ed Belfour 8:20 into the second overtime, ending a second consecutive tension- filled overtime game — and the Stars' Stanley Cup run—with a 2-1 Devils vic tory Saturday night. Arnott one-timed Patrik Elias' shot past Belfour as the Devils prevented the Stars from forcing a Game 7 Monday in New Jersey. Because the Devils wouldn't lose on the road to Dallas — they were 3-0 in Reunion Arena — the Stanley Cup has a new home. The Stars, who won the Cup on the road in Game 6 last year in Buffalo, lost it in Game 6 at home. It was the third time in five years the Cup was won in overtime, and the fourth time in five years the Cup has been won on the road. Devils goaltender Martin Brodeur ended his seven-game overtime fflay- off losing streak by making 30 saves, while Belfour — one of the heroes of the Stars' 1-0, three-overtime victory in Game 5 — lost despite stopping 43 of 45 shots. It was the first time in the best-of- seven era there have been back-to-back multiple overtime games in the finals. Devils defenseman Scott Stevens was named the Conn Smythe Award winner as the playoffs MVP. The Stars' fans were clearly dis traught at seeing the Cup won on their ice, but most stayed to cheer the post game presentation to Stevens by NHL commissioner Gary Bettman. Many fans began cheering, "Stan ley Cup," and "Stan-ley Cup" and "Ed-die, Ed-die" in appreciation not only of two of the most stirring over time games in recent Cup history, but the excellent goaltending. It was the end of one era for the Devils—John McMullen's 18-year run as owner — and, likely, the start of an other. Larry Robinson became only the third coach to win a Stanley Cup after taking over during the season and, by succeeding Robbie Ftorek with only eight games left, became the latest to take over a Cup champion. It was Robinson's eighth Stanley Cup title, six as a player and two as a coach, one as an assistant. The Devils opened a 3-1 series lead, then nearly lost it in overtime — first in the tense goalie duel in Game 5, then in yet another multiple overtime in Game 6 — before avoiding a Game 7. Only one team in NHL history, De troit in 1942, has lost the finals after leading 3-1. As might be expected, the Devils won it on the road. They are 5-0 all-time in road Stan ley Cup finals games, winning all three in Reunion Arena, where the Stars had won 11 of their last 12 playoff games before the finals. The Stars became the first defend ing champion to lose in the finals since the New York Islanders in 1984. The last four defending champs to reach the finals all won. The Devils are the first Eastern Con ference team to win the cup since they last did so in 1995. Both teams started the first over time with a rush. Sergei Brylin had an open shot within 90 seconds for New Jersey, but the puck hit off the heel of his stick. A short time later, the Stars’ Joe Nieuwendyk, last year's playoffs MVP, used a spin move to get open in the slot, only to miss wide on an un guarded shot. Dallas had a rare overtime power play — referees traditionally call only the most blatant violations in overtime — when Arnott cross-checked Blake Sloan to the jaw while pinning him to the ice at 18:43. Despite having several good scoring chances during the power play, the Stars were credited with one shot on goal to New Jersey's 11 in the first overtime. One goal was enough for the Stars Talk si vyem\ Aj to win the three-overtime Game5,but a one-goal lead didn't last two minutes for New Jersey this time. Scott Niedermayer ended the Dev ils' 145-minute, 33-second scoreless streak against Belfouron a3-on-lbreak at 5:18, the Devils' second short-hand ed goal in as many games in Dallas. Claude Lemieux started theplayby blocking Sylvain Cote at the blue line, then took Jay Pandolfo's passtosetup Niedermayer, who played junior hock ey for Stars coach Ken Hitchcock. New Jersey's first lead since the third period of Game 4 lasted only 1:05 before Mike Keane tied it with only the fourth goal in four games for Dallas. Bttention for is h Mike Modano made a drop pass to I The "Queen i Scott Thornton, who threaded thepud le past year, tin across the ice for Keane's high wrister from the right circle that sailed past Brodeur at 6:27.

The second strike occurs when prescription drugs do not alleviate allergy symptoms. Weldon said as a third level of allergy management, skin testing can determine individual allergies to certain plants, ani mals and foods and shots can be used to treat allergies. "Skin testing should be carefully performed, because it runs the possibility of reaction, whether it be minor or severe," Weldon said. "Thirty years ago, skin testing and allergy shots were common in treating allergies. But there was less technol ogy 30 years ago, and [there are] more medicines now." Dr. Barry Pauli, of St. Joseph Physician Alliance, also follows a three-strike plan. "The first step an allergy sufferer should take is to keep away from what is causing the allergy. That is pretty obvious. If you know that you are allergic to cats and you own one, get rid of it," Pauli said. Pauli said if avoiding allergens does not work, then over-the-counter and prescription medicines are the next step. Pauli also said that skin testing and allergy shots [College Station “ MOLD S P O c h 6,647 RE art 9,040 13,212 6,059 mis should be used as the last resort. "There are minor risks in skin testing and allergy shots," Pauli said. Texas A&M health education coordinator Margaret Griffith suggests student allergy sufferers visit A.P.

"The truth of the matter is that the students heard rumors. They heard A&M and Scott and White were going to terminate their partnership and feared they would not get to finish medical school becautse of the renegotia tions," Noren said. "A&M does not want to end its partnership with Scott and White," Noren said, "but if matters shift and a change of partnership is put into effect, then, by law, students are protected. The change cannot occur for four years, which is enough time for each medical student to finish his or her education." Noren said the College of Medicine has written a letter to A&M medical students informing them of this legal guarantee. The two hospitals where A&M medical students receive training and edu cation are the Central Texas Veterans' Health Care System (VA) and the Scott and White Medical Clinic located in Temple. i Price said renegotiations look into the possibility of Scott and White mak ing the VA a full-time partner, which adds to the tension felt on behalf of the A&M College of Medicine. The uncertainty of the future of the A&M and Scott and White partnership led the interim dean of the College of Medicine, Roderick McCallum, to step down (as interim dean of A&M's College of ^Medicine) last week. McCallum has also stepped down as interim vice president for academic affairs with the health science center, which includes the College of Medicine Dr. Nancy Dickey, who served as the first head of the American Medical Association, has been chosen as acting dear, to replace McCallum until anew acting dean can be found. Noren said he has extended his June 16 deadline for continuing renegotiations between the two institutions. )f Lee has und aused some c Dr. Herber lirector of TT lents and me: Tie faculty we d by the bad vith Lee.
