UNIVERSITY PRESS March 5,1982-4
Cardinals prepare for Mays
LAFAYETTE, La.—The Lamar Car-
dinals will begin their quest for a fourth con-
secutive bid to the NCAA Tournament as
they will take on University of Texas at Arl-
ington in the semifinal round of the second
annual Southland Conference Post-Season
Basketball Tournament here, tonight.
The victor will either play host
Southwestern Louisiana, or the winner of
the opening-round game between McNeese
State University (Lake Charles, La.) and
Louisiana Tech (Ruston) in the final game
Saturday at Blackham Coliseum.
Going into the tournament, the Redbirds
post the best record at 22-5. UTA finished at
15-11, and USL holds a 22-7 ledger.
UTA, the pre-season pick to win the SLC,
would seem to have the law of averages on
its side going into the game against the
Cards, since the last time the team beat
Lamar was in 1975. But, the Cards will be
emotionally fueled by the All-SLC picks, in
which no Cardinal was selected to the first
team.
“I felt we should have had at least one or
two players on the team,” Lamar guard
Tom Sewell, Pensacola, Fla., sophomore,
said.
“We felt like they (the people who voted
for the SLC team) messed us around. It just
puts more blood in our eyes,” he said.
Sewell, who is averaging 8.9 points per
game, was the only starter for Lamar who
was not selected for the first, the second or
the honorable mention teams.
The two big winners in the All-SLC
balloting were McNeese and UTA. Neither
of these teams had any complaints at the
pre-tournament press conference held
yesterday at the Lafayette Rodeway Inn.
“No matter who you let vote, there will
always be complaints,” UTA head coach
Bob “Snake” LeGrande said. “Last year,
we let the coaches pick the All-SLC team,
and people were still unhappy.”
The winner of the tourney will land an
automatic bid to the NCAA Midwest
Regionals at the Oral Roberts University
gym in Tulsa, Okla., or at Reunion Arena in
Dallas.
The losers may get an at-large bid to the
tournament, in which they could wind up
anywhere from Jamaica, N.Y., to Pullman,
Wash.
There is also the possibility that the losers
could gain a bid to the National Invitational
Tournament.
Both bids will be officially announced
Sunday at 4:30 p.m.
Terry Long, Panama City, Fla., senior
will bring a team-leading 14.2 scoring
average into the tournament for the Car-
dinals. Kenneth Perkins, Beaumont junior,
has a 12.3 scoring average and leads Lamar
in rebounding at 8.6 per outing.
Brian Kellybrew, Loanoke, Ark., junior,
has a 10.4 scoring average and is second on
the team in rebounding with a 6.4 average.
All three were named to the All-SLC second
team.
Lamar’s other starter, Dave Richardson,
Lake Oswego, Ore., senior was named to the
honorable mention team for the SLC.
Lamar defeats Jaugars; ready for Arizona
After splitting a double-header with
Southern University (Baton Rouge, La.)
Tuesday, the Cards came back to take the
third game of the series with a 7-2 win
Wednesday over the Jaguars as the Cards
prepared to face Arizona State this
weekend.
In Wednesday’s game, pitcher, Joe
Panteleo’s, Brooklyn, N.Y., junior seemed
to be back to his old form.
“Joe came back after being sick and
threw three strong innings,” Gilligan said.
It is going to take top performances from
all of the Cards, though, if Lamar hopes to
beat the Sun Devils, the defending national
champions, in their three game series at
Vincent Beck Field, beginning at 1:00 p.m.
Saturday.
“I sort of feel like Bubba Busceme in his
world championship fight,” Gilligan said.
“The trick to having a chance is going the
distance.”
When Gilligan talks about the strong
points of the Sun Devils he uses one word,
“everything.”
They hit well, they run well and they have
good defense, he said.
But he thinks a good defense and a run
scoring offense could do the trick for the
Cards.
Two of the Cards he will be counting on for
both strong offense and strong defense are
freshmen Jerald Clark, Crockett, first
base; and Keith Silver, Middleton, S.C.,
short stop.
These two newcomers to the team are
both playing outstanding defense, and they
are both hitting over .300, Gilligan said.
Along with a sound defense and run scor-
ing offense Gilligan will be depending on the
pitching arms of Panteleo and Tony Mack,
Lexington, Ky., junior to help Lamar’s
cause. .. .. _
If the Cards can get it all together this
weekend then they can do well against
Arizon State, Gilligan said.
“But,” he said, “I promise, we are not go-
ing to run away with it.”
UTA, McNeese pace All-SLC
SHREVEPORT, La.-Texas-
Arlington and McNeese State (Lake
Charles, La.), two schools which
finished in the middle of the
Southland Conference race, each
placed two players on the All-SLC
first team, announced Wednesday.
The Movin’ Mavs Albert Culton,
last year’s Newcomer of the Year,
and Ralph McPherson joined
freshman Joe Dumars of McNeese
State and Alford Turner of
Southwestern Louisiana as the near
unanimous picks. McNeese State’s
Fred Chaffould was the other first-
team member.
Lamar University and
Southwestern Louisiana (Lafayette),
the top two teams in the league, paced
the second team with five of the six
players named. Terry Long, Panama
City, Fla. senior, Kenneth Perkins,
Beaumont junior, and Brian
Kellybrew, Loneoke, Ark., junior,
represented the Cardinals, while
Graylin Warner and Dion Brown were
the Cajuns named to the squad.
