Hale is making presence felt in backcourt

Who is this Steve Hale character and why is he doing
such nasty things to UNC statistic sheets and endangering
Iront-row spectators in the nouveau riche basketball
kingdoms of Japan. Hawaii and Florida?
In the six Tar Heel games during their two-week World
Tour, Hale scored 83 points, passed out 30 assists and grabbed
28 rebounds. The 6-3 junior is now averaging ll. 3 points
and 5.6 assists per contest, while shooting 57 percent from
the floor and 91 percent from the line.
Enough with the numbers. Hale won't make Ail-American.
But he will be first team All-Floorburn.
Hale runs, shoots, dives, leaps and defends with a blue
collar flair. Tn Miami, it was Hale banking home his lefty
jumper, windmilling FSU guard Maurice Myrick into a five
second violation and crashing to the floor of the Knight
Center after a let's-both-hit-the deck-hard collision with 6
6 Jerome Fitchett. Characteristically, Hale picked himself
up, made certain his head and neck were joined, and sank
two free throws to give UNC a 50-49 advantage.
However, there was one Miami moment that symbolized
Hale's commitment to hustle and sacrifice for the team. With
5:34 remaining and UNC ahead, 61-55 thanks to four
points and a steal by Hale in the previous two minutes
the Seminoles missed four short-range shots in one sequence.
UNC's Brad Daugherty rebounded. His outlet pass for Hale
was tipped, sending Hale on a fly pattern out of bounds.
After the game, UNC coach Dean Smith laughingly said .
when Hale went sprawling to the floor, he believed he just
had to give him a breather, no matter that Hale never signalled
to come out.
"Steve played a gutty game; he does that all the time,"
said Smith almost nonchalantly, illustrating that Hale's hustle
was no revelation.
Could you be more specific, coach?
"Steve plays awfully hard."

Hustle: despite impressive offensive numbers, Steve Hale may be even better on defense.
ing the games often didn't really seem
to understand what was going on. The
cheerleaders imported to the games held
up cue cards telling the fans when to
cheer and wave their pompons, resulting
in the fans watching the cheerleaders
more than the games.
"The fans made a big deal over the
cheerleaders," Morris said. "They liked
them an awful lot."
"The only things they cheered of in
the games were slam dunks and long
jumpers," Peterson said.
"One fan commented in the paper
that she didn't know what was going
on but she liked the cheerleaders,"
Morris said.
Being away from home at Christmas
was the low point of the trip for most
of the players. "There were a lot of
Buddhists over there, so no one really
cared about Christmas," Peterson said.
"That took some spirit away from some
of the guys. It didn't seem like
Christmas."
"It was my first Christmas away from
home," Morris said. "I missed my family
and friends, but I think it brought the
team closer together because we sub
stituted each other for family."
The team tried to have as American
a Christmas as possible. One of the
people who traveled with the Tar Heels
dressed up as Santa Claus, handed out
candy, and the team sung carols.
But it still wasn't the same as being
at home. "I got homesick at Christmas,"
Popson said.
It was an odd Christmas for more
reasons than just being away from
home. At 10 p.m. on Christmas night,
the team left Japan and flew to Hawaii,
gaining about 19 hours in the process
and arriving in Hawaii at 9:20 a.m. .
Christmas Day again. "That was really
weird," Ranzino Smith said.
Coming back from practice that
night, the Tar Heels played a Christmas
wish game in which they each told one
thine thev would wish for. "Kenny
wished lor a big car, a house, and lots
of money," Morris said. "Most of us
did wish for material things. I wished
for acceptance into medical school."
The team spent nearly a week in
Hawaii, with snorkeling the high point
of the week, Morris said. "We'd get
some bread and tread water and
crumble it up and the fish would come
up and eat it right out our your hand,"
Morris said. "They were big fish, too."
Hawaii wasn't exactly the sunny
paradise Morris expected. "It rained the
first two days were there, and when it
stopped our schedule got hectic. I think
that pretty much the team enjoyed
Japan better."
Jet lag also began to be a problem
for the Tar Heels. "It was draining,
doing all that traveling," Smith said.
"I was asleep in the afternoon and
couldn't sleep at night," Peterson said.
But Hawaii was a dream come true
for Smith, notwithstanding the jet lag.
"We went to the beach, and the
atmosphere was great. It was my dream
to go to Hawaii, because I used to
always watch Ha waii Five-O on
television."
The team played its final game
overseas on Dec. 30, and the players
flew home immediately afterwards to
be with their families.
"I was really glad to get back home,"
said Morris. "We only got to spend five
days out of the break at home, it's
usually more than that. Everybody was
really glad to get off the planes."
