Under the direction of Baylor head coach Dave Bliss, the Big 12 team will consist of one player from each conference school. The 2002 all-stars have 10 upperclass men, four of which are seniors. The Big 12 All-Stars will report to Dallas on Aug. 2 and practice for two days prior to their trip overseas Aug. 5. The team will play six games in Sweden, Norway, and Denmark, and return August 16. Anderson, a 6-foot-6-inch forward, averaged 10.1 points and 5.1 rebounds for the Aggies last sea son and was a member of the Big 12 All-Freshman team in 2000-01. He has started in 54 of his 61 games at A&M. “We are really looking forward to representing the Big 12 Conference in international competition in an area of the world that a lot of these players will never have an opportunity to see,” said Bliss, who will enter his fourth season at Baylor in 2002-03 and won his 500th career game last year. There are four seniors on the team, led by two Big 12 All-Newcomer selections from 2001-02 — Kansas State forward Pervis Pasco and Oklahoma guard Quannas White. Pasco averaged 12.1 points per game and was fourth in the league in rebounds with an 8.4 average last season. White was the start ing point guard on OU’s Final Four team, where he averaged 7.6 points per outing last year and his 4.7 assists per game were seventh in the conference. Rounding out the seniors on the all-star squad are Texas forward Deginald Erskin and Texas Tech guard Will Chavis. Erskin is a forward who averaged 7.7 points last season, including 12.8 points per game in the final five games of the Big 12 and NCAA Tournaments. Chavis also averaged 7.7 points per game last year and was among the league leaders in three-point shooting percentage making 36-of-88 (40.9 percent) last year. Germany advances to finals, 1 -0 Cup dream over for Korean squad SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — Only one thing could have stopped the singing, swaying sea of red. It came in the 75th minute off the foot of German midfielder Michael Ballack, no stranger to breaking hearts. Ending the most improbable run in an upset- filled World Cup, Germany advanced to its record seventh final with a I -0 victory over co host South Korea on Tuesday night. “It was absolutely fantastic,” Germany defender Carsten Ramelow said. “We are proud to have beaten not only 11 Korean players but the 64,000 spectators.” South Korea didn’t get to paint the nation red for yet another all-night celebration by its mil lions of devoted fans. Instead, it was the Germans in white jerseys who repeatedly took victory laps at Seoul World Cup Stadium, thanks to the goal from Ballack off a rebound of his own shot. His game-winner came four days after he eliminated the United States with a goal on a header in the Germans’ 1 - 0 victory in the quarterfinals. Little was expected from this team, but now it will get a chance to win a fourth World Cup for its country — the first for a united German team — and get the respect accorded the West German champions of 1954, 1974 and 1990.

Germany’s Michael Ballack scored the winning goal in the 75th minute. SOURCE: Associated Press organized for South Korea, controlling the ball and doing most of the attacking to advance to Sunday’s final against Brazil or Turkey in Yokohama, Japan. They will seek to equal Brazil’s record for World Cup championships, but will do so without Ballack, suspended after getting his second yellow card of the knockout phase. Four minutes before the goal, Lee Chun-soo got away from Torsten Frings and went around Ramelow, and Ballack pulled down Lee just outside the penalty area. “My first thoughts are bitterness,” said Ballack, who cried in the locker room after the game. “My dream was to play in the final, but now that will not be.” Germany scored after Bernd Schneider inter cepted Kim Tae-young’s pass and sent it ahead to Oliver Neuville, who ran down the right flank, drawing two defenders. He went almost to the end of the field, then bent the ball back to the center. Ballack, unmarked, charged toward the goal and his initial low, right-footed shot off the pass was saved by sliding goalkeeper Lee Woon-jae. But the hard rebound went right to Ballack, who volleyed in a left-footed shot from about 8 yards for his third goal of the tournament. “In the world, very few people would have placed much money on us going through to the final, and so it’s satisfying for us to prove them wrong,” Ballack said. “Despite the criticisms that were leveled at us because of the lack of style, lack of flare ... I think today’s game really proved to the world that we are in the World Cup for something.” A month ago.
