lina men’s golf team to a fifth-place finish
Tuesday in its season-opening tournament
at the American University/Puerto Rico
Challenge played in San Juan, Puerto Rico.
The senior finished in a tie for eighth
place, firing a three-day total of 218, 10
strokes off the pace of tournament champ
Stewart Cink of Georgia Tech. Other Tar
Heels who placed in the event were: Greg
DiDonna (220), Rob Bradley (224), Mark
Wilson (227) and Don Hill (235).
Florida captured the team tide with a
two-over-par 866 on the par-72 Rio Mar
Golf Club.

11 1/2 seasons with the Portland Trail
Blazers, got the trade he had requested

Otis Thorpe.
The NBA champions will also give Port
land a conditional 1995 first-round draft
pick and the rights to 1993 second-round

president of basketball operations.

Heat to the playoffs two of the last three
seasons, was offered a position as a vice
president. It was not immediately known if
Loughery, 55, would stay with the team.

Nelson’s assistant, found his career path
accelerated Monday when Nelson resigned

No. 9 Tar Heels Take On Testy Tigers Tonight
STAFF REPORT
When North Carolina beat Clemson
earlier this season, point guard Marion
Jones played hero.
With 34.2 seconds remaining and the
score tied at 73, Jones drove to the outside
and pulled up just behind the basket to give
UNC its winning points in the 77-73 vic
tory. She scored a game-high 23 points at
Littlejohn Coliseum and earned both plau
dits and a Diet Coke from Lady Tiger
coach Jim Davis.
“Last year, she was a great athlete,”
Davis said Jan. 14. “This year, she’s a full
fledged player.”
And when the No. 9 Tar Heels (23-3,9-
3 in the ACC) tip off against the Lady
Tigers (17-6,7-4) at 7 tonight in Carmichael
Auditorium, Jones may need to play leader
again.
Charlotte Smith, who took home two
ESPY awards Monday night, leads UNC
in both points (18.7) and rebounds (10.3),
but has consistently had trouble against
Clemson throughout her career. The Ti
gers held the senior forward to just 15
points and seven boards in their last meet
ing, and she fouled out with just over two
minutes left in the game. In eight career
games against Clemson, Smith has aver
aged just 10.4 points and 5.9 rebounds.
But UNC is coming off a huge victory
and should be rested for a classic Clemson
war. Saturday, the Tar Heel seniors earned
their 100th victory in the 84-47 whomping
of nonconference George Mason. Senior
Stephanie Lawrence, who became the all
time UNC leader in 3-pointers made on
Feb. 8, connected on 5-of-10 treys and

When I first proposed this article on
sports fashion, my fellow desk ur
chins said, “Yeah right. An article
on sports fashion. win you a lot of
journalistic integrity.” Ha ha ha.
Who gives a dam?
I don’t because I don’t plan on being a
journalist. So I’ll be counting my six-figure
salary while they babble about integrity.
I think sports fashion is a viable issue.
Athletes are very visible. Owners pay them
millions to swing a bat, throw a pigskin or
thrust a rubber sphere through some nylon
threads. What they wear is an instrumen
tal aspect of their spotlight.
So, using my remarkable fashion sense
and sports wisdom, I chose the five most
fashionable personalities in the NCAA. (I
limited it to college because I could write
volumes on the hideousness of the Cleve
land Cavaliers’ uniforms.)
.First, the the five least fashionable:

apparently suffering from an inferiority
complex. That’s the only way to explain

Smith’s Shot Nets 2 ESPY Trophies
STAFF REPORT
Charlotte Smith's ESPN Sports Center
highlight won her two ESPY awards
Monday night at Radio City Music Hall
in New York.
Smith, who canned a 3-point shot
with 0.7 seconds left to win the national
title, won the College Basketball Divi
sion I Women’s Player of the Year and a
Video Award for the Outstanding Col
lege Basketball Play of the Year award.
“I just want to thank my teammates,
because without them I couldn’t have
done it,” Smith said Tuesday. “It lets
everybody know that we’re for real, and
we are a national championship team.”
Smith said she was concerned that the
other two plays up for the Play of the
Year award were by men’s basketball
scored 17 points against the Patriots.
For Clemson, look for guard Stephanie
Ridgeway (18 points, 5 boards in the last
game) and forward Tara Saunooke (10
points, six boards) to lead the Lady Tigers.
Saunooke, the ACC’s top 3-point shooter,
missed all three of her trifecta attempts in
the first meeting.
The Lady Tigers have won their last
three games—including a 78-64 thrashing
of No. 14 Duke Feb. 1.
UNC has won its last six meetings
against Clemson, but those six victories
were by an average of only 3.8 points per
game.
