ANDERSON
Anderson put
on All-Star team
Staff & Wire Reports
Texas A&M junior Nick Anderson has been
named to the Big 12 All-Star team that will tour
Scandinavia in August, the conference office said
Monday.
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.
The Germans were too experienced and well

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.”

to win a World Cup game after going 0-10-4 in
