With 1:36 left, Rasheed Wallace made a steal and passed upcouit to Pearce Landry, who went to Jerry Stackhouse for a dunk. Maryland’s lead was five, and it looked like UNC might pull off its third major comeback in as many road games. “For us to shoot as poorly as a team, and for us to still be in it at the end really says •a lot,” Donald Williams said. - But Maryland wouldn’t fold down the stretch. It hit 10-of-ll free throws in the final two minutes. “ “We’redefinitelyanever-say-dieteam,” Landry said. “They just plain beat us.” “Jinx. Curse. 'Omen,” is how Rasheed Wallace described the immi 'nent No. 1-ranking Saturday. But the No. 1 Vankinghadn’tbeen a jinx for the Tar Heels against the Terps in the past. Tonight, they in sisted it wasn’t a fac tor. _ UNC had been No. 1 three other Maryland guard JOHNNY RHODES scored 21 points and grabbed nine boards. ! times in the last two years before tonight, 1 and it had won all three. ! This time was different. ! “It’s a credit to Maryland because we !just couldn’t stop them,” Landry said, i “They were breaking our press with ease, • and even when they got into the half court, •they were getting the ball down low and getting some easy baskets. And Rhodes was very negative from the outside.” Rhodes’ negative kanna for the Tar Heels began when Gaty Williams called a timeout with 8:23 left in the first half. After UNC used an 11-0 run to take a 14-point lead, the Terps used the 3-point shot to fight back. Simpkins came out of the timeout and drilled a 3. After a Landry air ball, Mary land cut the lead to single digits as 6-8 forward Mario Lucas canned a 3-pointer from the top of the key with 5:25 left. Rhodes would hit two more 3-pointers before the half ended and then gave the Black History Month Fannie Lou Hamer Growing up in the cotton fields of RuleviUe, Miss, during the early 1920s acquainted Fannie Lou Hamer with the reality of oppression.

Maryland Backcourt E-Rhodes Tar Heels BY JUSTIN SCHEEF SPORTS EDITOR COLLEGE PARK, Md. Going into Tuesday night’s matchup at Cole Field House between NorthCarolinaand Mary land, the focus was down low, where super sophomores Joe Smith and Rasheed Wallace make their livings. UNC should have looked outside, be cause that’s where the real action was. The Terrapin backcourt of Duane Simpkins and Johnny Rhodes burned No. 1 UNC for 21 points each in No. 8 Maryland’s 86-73 win. The duo connected on 16-of-23 shots, including six 3-pointers. “Every game someone else is going to step up,” UNC forward Dante Calabria said. “That’s why we play the game somebody’s going to come through.” The Maryland guard tandem certainly did that in the first half when Maryland was down 30-16 with 8:23 left. The Terps went on a 23-6 run, including 16 points from Simpkins and Rhodes. Simpkins came out of a timeout and threw up a rainbow 3-pointer that hit the back iron, went skyward and dropped in. “It was definitely the break that we needed,” Simpkins said. “Went it went in Isaid, ‘I hope we can get something started here.’” Maryland head coach Gary Williams said that his team was getting good looks because Joe Smith, Exree Hipp and Keith Booth were taking the ball inside. Protest Over Racial Remarks Postpones UMass-Rutgers Game THE ASSOCIATED PRESS PISCATAWAY, N. J.

The junior shooting guard from Washing ton, D.C., drilled a 3-pointer over a flying Jerry Stackhouse, made another 3 from the top of the key, drew a foul on a layup for a 3-point play and then added another layup. Maryland was back on top, 37-36. “The guys came off the bench, found me when I was open, and I was feeling it. So I was excited,” Rhodes said. UNC coach Dean Smith said the Tar Heels didn't concede the trey to the Terps. “We were not giving it to him, ” he said. “He even hit one through a double team. We just couldn’t get there.” The second half was more of the same for the Maryland bombers. An old-fashioned 3-point play by Simpkins with just over two minutes left helped seal the contest. With Maryland up 70-63 and UNC threatening with 3-point eis, Simpkins brought the ball up court and ran the clock. He drove with less than seven seconds left and scored while draw ing a foul from Shammond Williams. The junior made the free throw and the Terps were up by 10 again. “Duane takes the challenge,” Gary Williams said. “He’s played well against some of the best point guards in the confer ence.” rity guards came out to talk to her, but the protest escalated as more than 100 stu dents joined her after about two minutes. Officials asked Massachusetts coach John Calipari to take his players off the court. Both teams then returned to their locker rooms in the Rutgers Athletic Cen ter. Rutgers was leading 31-29.
