Birds take SLC lead
Lamar swamps USL
By CLYDE HUGHES
UP Sports Editor_
Lamar Cardinals tighten their hold
on the Southland Conference crown
with two wins over the University of
Southwestern Louisiana (Lafayette)
82-75, Monday and McNeese State
(Lake Charles, La.) 81-65, Saturday.
In the game with USL, both teams
entered undefeated in conference
play (Lamar at 2-0 and USL at 3-0).
Lamar now stands 3-0 in conference
play and 17-2 on the season, while USL
is 3-1 in conference and 16-5 for the
season.
The Cards were led by a 18-point
performance by Kenneth Perkins,
Beaumont junior. Brian Kellybrew,
Loneoke, Ark., junior, turned in his
best conference play to date with 16
points and eight rebounds while Terry
Long, Panama City, Fla., senior, con-
nected for 14 more.
Dion Brown led the Ragin’ Cajuns
with 19 points. Alford Turner added 16
and Graylin Warner contributed 14 to
the USL effort.
The Cajuns hit on 54 percent for
their field goals in their first three
conference games but the Cards held
them down to only 49 percent.
Lamar shot 64 percent for the game
and an amazing 80 percent (16 out of
20 shots) in the second half.
The Cardinals also out-rebounded
the much taller Cajun team, 32 boards
to 28.
The game started at a solid pace
seeing the lead change hands six
times in the opening five minutes with
no team leading more than one point.
With the Cards leading at 13-12,
Greg Williams, Wichita, Kan.,
sophomore, came in and threw an
assist to Dave Richardson, Lake
Oswego, Ore., senior, and hit from 18-
and 15-feet out to give the Cards a
19-12 lead.
Lamar enforced that lead at
halftime with a 10-foot fall away
jumper by Kellybrew at the buzzer to
give Lamar a 39-32 lead.
Both teams hit their first three
shots from the field to start the the se-
cond half. Then Long, who had 12 se-
cond half points, introduced his
“Bingo show.” Long hit three shots in
a row from 17-, 21-, and 23-feet to give
the Cards their biggest bulge at 49-38.
But the USL team fought back slow-
ly to get back into the the game, clos-
ing the Lamar lead to one point on
three occasions. The latest was with
5:15 remaining when guard Johnny
Collins banked in a loose ball.
But the Cajuns counted their bou-
dain too early as Kellybrew drove to
the baseline for a bucket and Richard-
son connected on both ends of one-
and-one free throws.
USL got the Card lead cut back to
three points in the last three minutes
of thegame.
Kellybrew finished off the Cajuns
and the game with a slam dunk with
five seconds remaining in regualtion
to complete the Cardinal victory.
Even with the victory, USL is still a
team Lamar players say they
respect. “We felt we had to come in
emotionally high,” Long said after
the game, “because we knew that
USL had an awesome team.”
“He (Foster) said that they wert
tough and big,” Kellybrew said. “We
just had to take it to them.”
After getting into foul trouble in the
first two games, Kellybrew said he
felt a lot better about this game. “It
(being fouled out) was kinda on my
mind,” Kellybrew said. “I knew I
couldn’t help the team sitting on the
bench with fouls so I just had to just
play as hard as I could.”
The Cardinals never trailed in the.
game against the McNeese State
Cowboys but were pressured for most
of it with the young Lake Charles
team.
Lamar’s largest first half lead was
eight at 22-14 but near the end of the
first half the lead was cut to one
(35-34) on a 15-footer by MSU’s rookie
sensation Joe Dumars. But a 21-footer
by Nicky Snell, Deer Park junior, and
a follow-up shot by Long expanded the
margin to 39-34 at the half.
In a sloppy second half after
McNeese cut the LU lead down to one
again (48-47) on a Chris Hardin lay
up, the Cards scored 15 consecutive
points for a 63-47 lead before Chris
Faggi hit for the Cowboys again com-
pleting a three-point play.
The Cowboys never got the lead
again under 10 points. The game in-
cluded 51 fouls, four technicals and 62
free throw attempts
Tom Sewell, Pensacola, Fla.,
sophomore, topped the Lamar
scorers with 16 points while Richard-
son had 12 points and nine rebounds.
Long and Williams added 11 each and
Perkins had eight points and 12 re-
bounds.
Arthur Gray, Beaumont senior,
tallied 10 points for the cause along
with having a big performance
against USL.
“Sewell played so-so the first half,”
head coach Pat Foster said, “but he
came back in and did a super job.
“We had a cold spell in the second
half and they didn’t capitalize,”
Foster said about the game.
. Now the Cardinals will go on the
road Saturday to take on Arkansas
State in Jonesboro and will return to
the Civic Center Monday to battle the
Louisiana Tech (Ruston) Bulldogs.

Lady Cards take
two of three tilts
When there's
no more room in HELL
the dead will walk the EARTH
The Lamar Lady Cardinals won two
out of three games at home as they
defeated Dillard University (New
Orleans) and the University of
Southwestern Louisiana (Lafayette),
while losing to North Texas State
(Denton).
On Friday, the Cards drubbed
Dillard 70-53 led by a 21-point perfor-
mance by Shirley Moseby, Parkdale,
Ark., sophomore, and a 14-point,
14-rebound effort by Kat Ashford, El
Campo junior.
Spookie Warren, Conroe junior, ad-
ded 12 points for the Cards. Janice
Franklin of Dillard had 20 points and
16 rebounds.
Lamar trailed for most of the first
half as the score was knoted on six dif-
ferent occasions in the second half.
Lamar got the lead late in the first
half at 32-31 on a Ashford 12-foot
jumper as the Cardinals scored the
next 10 points in a row to take a 42-31
lead.
Lamar quickly expanded that lead
to 19 points with baskets by Ashford,
Moseby, and four points by Warren as
the lead got as big as 21.
Dillard never got the lead back
under 15 points as the Cards’ defense
shut down the Lady Demons offense
to just 30 percent shooting.
In the 70-64 loss against North
Texas State, the Lady Cardinals blew
an early five point lead (6-1) and fell
behind by as many as six (27-21). A
Moseby five-footer and two free
throws tied the score at 33-all at the
half.
But North Texas increased its
margin in the middle of the second
half by eight (45-53) mostly from the
services of Diane Williams and
Theresa Green who both had 16 points
before fouling out.
Lamar pulled within one at 63-62 on
a jumper by Moseby but subs Sally
Lindemann and Linda Holubec hit
baskets in the final minutes to
preserve the victory.
In the 77-67 victory over USL, the
Cardinals had to fight off the hot hand
of DeNicea Dangerfield who had 22
points
After a 34-33 defecit at halftime, the
Cards got the lead for good on a Col-
leen Solseth, Wadena, Minn., junior,
jumper and increased their lead to
60-50 on a 20-footer by Ford.
Warren led the Cardinal scorers
with 14 points and Solseth added 11.
Moseby had six rebounds to lead
Lamar in that category.
With one home game left on the
schedule and the TAIAW state tourna-
ment approaching, head basketball
coach Pat Ramsey said that she feels
that the rest of the games are of the
utmost importance.
“These next four games will be
very important,” Ramsey said. “One
of the things they look at in the state
tournament is your overall record.”
But if the Cards do make it to the
State tournament, Ramsey said she
feels that they are more than ready.
“This team can be a contender at any
time it wants to be,” she said.
The Lady Cards will take on
McNeese in Lake Charles at 7:30
p.m., Thursday.
