Qlifp Baily (Tar Hppl MEN'S BASKETBALL FROM PAGE 1 “We were supposed to spread out and drive and look for a 3 ... and it fell off Shammond’s foot,” Smith said. Indeed, the climax of Tuesday’s thriller wasn’t new to the Tar Heel crowd. UNC (16-6, 7-3 in the ACC) has pulled off two comeback rallies in the last three weeks to Wake Forest and Duke. “We don’t get down on purpose, be lieve it or not ... it might look like it,” Smith said. It did in the second half. Although Maryland’s lead never reached double dig its in the first stanza, the Tar Heels came out of the locker room with about as much fizz as day-old soda. Maryland(l2-7,5-4) opened that stanza with a steal that eventually led to a three point play by senior Exree Hipp. The 6- foot-8 forward added five more points in the next two minutes to give Maryland an Dilbert WHY IS IT THAT THE § I KNOW/ YOU'RE USING IIS THIS fuJHERE WOULD I PEOPLE CJITH THE o YOUR OFFICE AS KIND OF I BECAUSE I PUT IT?

Led by the pumped-up play of Mary land sixth-man Mario Lucas, who scored a game-high 18 points, and poor production from the Tar Heels, the Terps flew out to a 73-56 lead at the 5:57 mark. Then— ‘better late than never’ UNC’s comeback unfolded. After an official timeout, UNC fresh man Ademola Okulaja hit two free throws, guard Shammond Williams and Jeff Mclnnis connected on treys, Dante Calabria converted only his third field goal of the evening and Shammond Williams swished another shot from behind the arc. Maryland led 78-76. “It would’ve been a remarkable come back,” Smith said. “How we lost probably bothers me more thanlosing to a very good Maryland team. ” After Rhodes missed a tip-in off a Lucas shot, Jamison was fouled at the other bas ket to give UNC the chance to knot it.

UNC’s JeffMclnnis countered from the opposite baseline, and the game was fi nally on. UNC hit its largest lead of the half at the 9:08 mark when Vince Carter hit seven straightpoints—onejam, anotherputback and a trey to make it 21-12. Maryland cut into that margin, though, as UNC’s fatigue showed. After Calabria missed a trey and Carter missed a jumper on consecutive possessions, Rhodes got fouled on a jumper then put back his own missed free throw to cut UNC’s lead back to two. © 1996 Tribune Media Services, Inc.

North Carolina guard Shammond Wil liams drilled a couple of late 3-pointers against Duke, the second of which cut the Blue Devils’ lead to one with less than a minute left. Then Williams hit another two during UNC’s near-miss comeback against N.C. State last Saturday. But Tuesday night, Williams cemented himself as a clutch bomber, drilling four 3- pointers in the final 11 minutes, as the Tar Heels tried to erase a 17-point second half deficit in its 84-78 loss to Maryland. Will iams finished with a career-high 17 points on 6-of-9 shooting, including five 3-point ers. “Seventeen points doesn’t mean any thing if we don’t win,” Williams said. “I’d trade all 17 points for a victory.” Because for all of Williams’ clutch play down the stretch, it was his own muffed drive that cost the Tar Heels a chance to score with less than 20 seconds left, trailing 80-78. Men’s Tennis Wallops Wildcats in Sweep BYROBPATON STAFF WRITER The UNC men’s tennis team taught a young Davidson squad a lesson Tuesday at Cone-Kenfield Tennis Center, as the Tar Heels defeated the Wildcats 7-0. The match, which was originally sched uled for Feb. 2 but postponed until yester day due to poor weather, was dominated by the Tar Heels, who improved to 2-0. Strangely enough, North Carolina did not get off to a great start as the No. 1 doubles team of David Caldwell and Brint Morrow struggled and eventually lost to Jon Pastel and Bill Mitchem of Davidson 9:8. The Tar Heel tandem looked poised early andjumpedouttoas-21ead. Caldwell and Morrow then dropped the next four games, and Davidson grabbed a 6-5 lead. The next few games see-sawed between the teams until it reached an 8-8 tie. In the tiebreaker, Caldwell and Morrow only managed one point and committed five straight unforced errors to hand the match to Davidson. “We were a little rusty,” said Mor row, whohasn’tplayedwithCaldwellsince last spring. “It’s going to take a few months to get back together, but hopefully that wasn’t an indication of how we’ll play.” Caldwell, who took last semester off, WILLIAMS nailed five 3-pointers and scored 17 points vs. Maryland. Maryland’s Johnny Rhodes hounded Williams in front of the Tar Heel bench like he had hounded Ademola Okulaja through the first 39 minutes. Only minutes before, Williams had the ball stripped as he drove to the goal, and on this possession, Rhodes pulled off one of the biggest steals of his life. When Williams tried to go right, the ball nicked off Rhodes’ leg and ricocheted outofboundsoffWilliams. Itwas Rhodes’ ninth steal of the game, tying a career high. “Johnny Rhodes had nine steals... and had the biggest one when we needed it right at the end,” Terrapin coach Gary Williams said. For Shammond Williams, it was an all too-familiar disappointment. He had nailed DAVID CALDWELL lost his doubles match but won in singles vs. Davidson on Tuesday. is returning to ac tionaftersometime away from the team. “We’re real happy that David is back,” UNC coach Sam Paul said. “He’s such a hard worker, and he wants to do well for the team.” Paul said he was not surprised by the result of the first doubles match. “It was David’s first match back, and he was a little bit nervous,” Paul said, adding that Caldwell needs a few matches to get back to form. Although UNC dropped the first doubles match, it breezed through the other two doubles contests to claim the doubles point. Tony Thomas and Tripp Phillips beat Ted Kaplan and Judson Sutherland 8-3 at No. 2, while the No. 3 tandem of Robert TAR HEEL SPORTS SHORTS TODAY at Carolina; Women’s Basketball vs. Georgia Tech 7:oopm at Carmichael Auditorium Students & Faculty Admitted FREE w/ID! \ IfllOKKj IllfSl Thanks You for Making Our First Year a Great Success.

FRANKLIN ST. 942-1800 Wednesday, February 7,1996 two important 3-pointers during a loss to N.C. State in last Saturday’s loss to the Wolfpack, but on the game’s final play, he missed a 3 from the comer that would have tied the game and completed another im probable comeback. “This is two times that the game’s been on the line, and I’ve had a chance to win it,” Williams said. “I feel like I’ve let the team down again.” But without Williams’ play, a chance to steal a win would not have been possible. Trailing 62-50, Williams rattled off the first of his four late treys to cut the Terps’ lead to nine. The teams tradedbaskets, and Williams knocked down two more from beyond the arc. Then with 1:27 left Will iams knocked dow a 3 that brought the Tar Heels to 78-76 down, closer than they had been since early in the second half. Then with 33 seconds left, Williams fed an open Antawn Jamison in the lane. Jamison missed, but he was fouled and hit both free throws to tie the game at 78. “... Shammond made some big shots tonight,” UNC coach Dean Smith said “We wouldn’t have gotten back without him.” Tedesco and Paul Harsanyi ousted Jeff Tonindandel and Blake Clifton 8-1. In singles play, Caldwell got another chance to help the team, and this time he didn’t disappoint, defeating Pastel, 7-5,6- 3. Morrow did not play singles due to a pulled stomach muscle. UNC swept the rest of the singles matches to complete the shutout. Second seeded Tedesco beat Kaplan 6-3,6-0, and Phillips beat Eric Bourn 6-1,6-3 at No. 3. In the final matches, Thomas knocked off Paul Wulfsberg 6-1, 6-1 at No. 4, Harsanyi bested Tonidandel 6-3, 64 at No. 5, and sixth-seeded Eric Gordon topped Derek Schulze in a 6-3,6-1 rout. Paul was reserved after the victory, ac knowledging that “some play was good, but we have things we’ve got to work on.” “It’s early, and we’ll take it match by match and hopefully improve,” he said, adding that he believes this year’s team is a very talented one whose success will hinge on how hard the Tar Heels are willing to work. 5
