M Sports? \\ by Rodney Cline Schick 3*on-3 basketball set for Feb* 20 Get ready to play some hoops. The Schick Super Hoops 3-on-3 intramural basketball tournament will be held Feb. 20 in Woollen Gym. Teams may enter between now and Feb. 16 in the IM-REC office in 203 Woollen. The tournament will feature men’s and women’s divisions. The campus champions will qualify for the regional tournament on Feb. 27 at Woollen Gym against teams from other schools. UNC has experience in the regional tournament. Last year, the Tar Heel men and women won the regionals, and they both advanced to a divisional championship at the Charlotte Coliseum. There, the women won, while the men lost. This year, the divisional tournament is scheduled for Apr. 17, and it will be played just before an Atlanta Hawks game at the Omni in Atlanta. Anew twist is in the works for the Schick tournament this season. On Feb. 20, Reebok will sponsor a Spot Shot Contest, which challenges students to score from sue designated areas on the court in the quickest time. The top male and female competitors will win a pair of Reebok basketball shoes. "There will be a court set aside during the (3-on-3) tournament,” said IM REC director Marty Pomeranez. “Participants may sign up for the Spot Shot at the site, and they will also have a chance to go on to the regional tournament." Asa special bonus, UNC has also been selected as one of 30 schools nationwide to present the Reebok Shoe Display. The display will present the latest in Reebok basketball shoes, and students will have a chance to win shoes by a random drawing.
