team like that.”
Although the Terps kept hitting, they
still couldn’t put the Tar Heels away.
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.

! 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

The end result of that second timeout
was a 23-6 run to end the first period with
a 39-38 Maryland lead.
With the win, Maryland tied the Tar
Heels for fust place in the conference. The
Terps would have taken the ACC lead for
themselves if they had not lost to Georgia
Tech Saturday.
“The only down side to it is that I wish
we could have gotten the win Saturday,”
Simpkins said. “But we’ll keep plodding
along and moving up.”

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.

“We got some open 3s by first going
inside,’’Williams said. “That’s why Duane
and Johnny got good looks, because of our
ability to drive inside.”
Simpkins drove for another layup, Mario
Lucas hit a 3, and then it was Rhodes’ turn.
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
