Chiccini scored, butTowson came up short, 9-4. Baseball escapes with sloppy win BY KELLIE DIXON ASSISTANT SPORTS EDITOR North Carolina did just enough to get past Towson on Tuesday. Despite scoring two runs in the first inning, the Tar Heels sunk into a lethargic mind-set that near ly cost them the game. But the Tar Heels survived the Tiger come back, 9-4, win ning the first of two matchups scheduled for BASEBALL Towson 4 UNC 9 this week at Boshamer Stadium. “The worst thing that probably could have happened, happened,” said UNC coach Mike Fox. “We got an early lead, and then just the nat ural tendency is to relax a little bit." By the start of the fifth inning, the Tar Heels (17-7) had settled in, seemingly cozy with a lead bol stered by a fourth-inning surge highlighted by a solo homer from Chris lannetta and doubles from Chad Prosser, Jeremy Cleveland and Blair Waggett. But Towson (9-7) refused to go quietly. Two Tar Heel errors on CAROLINA BASKETBALL S NIT QUARTERFINAL £$ ~ BIVS.

With runners on first and third, and two Tiger runs already glowing on the scoreboard atop an accumu lated five for UNC, Scott Manshack put all he had into his next pitch. “I did it for four innings, so I didn’t lose any confidence,” Manshack said. “I just kept telling myself, ‘Focus on this guy. You can do it.’” Tiger Brian McKenna leaned back slightly, tightened his grip and drove the ball into left field, spurring a sequence that eliminat ed the lead runner. Third baseman Sammy Hewitt relayed the ball to Prosser, who chased down Towson’s Jeremy Stifler between second and third. “I think what happened in that inning was everybody got a little sloppy,” Prosser said. “We kind of got laid-back.” As the game continued, UNC committed two more errors to match its season high of four, which was accumulated in the Tar Heels’ 14-5 win against Monmouth For Rent Warehouse Chapel Hill's Finest Ist or 3rd Floor Center Unit Available June 1! $520 per person 12 month lease Fabulous amenities Call Cindy 929-8020 if you’re interested in finding roommates!

There are all kinds of rea sons for why you aren’t ready to play midweek games. I don’t buy any of them.” North Carolina redeemed itself, however, in the sixth inning with runs from second baseman Greg Mangum, Prosser, Cleveland and lannetta. North Carolina intends to tweak several aspects of its game, partic ularly its defensive prowess, as it goes into its second matchup against Towson today at 3 p.m. “We still need to pitch and play defense,” Fox said. “We’re getting lulled into the fact that we’re a great offensive team. “We’re not that kind of team. I think everyone thinks, after (two wins against) Wake (Forest), that we’re that kind of team we’re not." Contact the Sports Editor at sports@unc.edu.

Sports Rivals Scott, Sweetney meet again BY AARON Fin SPORTS EDITOR North Carolina guard Melvin Scott will be the first one to tell you that Michael Sweetney deserves the publicity. “I’m going to tell the guys that he’s the real deal,” Scott said of Georgetown’s 6-foot-8 All- America candidate. “He’s big, you know, like Sean May. Got great hands, can pass, can hit the short jump shot. He’s a great athlete.” That’s pretty much what a lot of people are saying about Sweetney these days. But once upon a time, it was Scott who was stealing the headlines from Sweetney. Both were highly touted high school players in Maryland, but Scott not Sw'eetney was the state’s Player of the Year in 2000. Now Sweetney is in the spotlight.

Scott tonight when they take on UNC in the NIT quarterfinals. “A lot of teams don’t really look at Melvin as a threat, but he can go off and hit 20 points one night, 30 points the next night,” said UNC’s David Noel. “Melvin has given us a big boost. I think he’s given us the biggest boost.” It would be hard to argue with that, lately. Scott had a career-high 20 points on 8-of-12 shooting (4 of 7 behind the 3-point arc) in UNC’s win against Wyoming on Monday. Midway through the second half, the Cowboys made a run by switch ing to a zone defense and forcing UNC’s shooters to hit. Most of them went cold, but Scott didn’t. “I was just thinking, ‘They bet ter not give me any more looks,’ because I was ready to light the place up,” Scott said. The sophomore has lit up many Game: Georgetown at North Carolina -gv Time: Today, 7 p.m. Location: Smith Center cjj Radio: 100.7 FM, WCHL-1360 AM T**” Television: ESPN2 Keys for UNC: Keep the momentum wAf going. The surprising NIT turnout has inspired the Tar Heels, and a vamped crowd can only do good things for UNC against Georgetown. And if the perimeter shots don't fall, like in the Tar Heels' drought against Wyoming on Monday then UNC needs to drive to the basket and get Sweetney in foul trouble. With him on the bench, the Tar Heels' road to the NIT semifinals becomes a lot smoother. Keys for Georgetown: The Hoyas might have scraped by Providence shooting 39 percent from the field and with Sweetney nursing four fouls on the bench for 7:27 in the second half, but that won't work against UNC. Sweetney needs to show off his skills in the paint but avoid becoming an easy target for the referees. UNC Bench: Jackie Manuel's defensive skills will come in handy against the Hoyas, and UNC will need his height (yeah, he's only 6-foot-5, but that’s decent when compared with the rest of the Tar Heels) to handle Georgetown's trio of big men. Georgetown Bench: The Hoya reserves managed only two points collectively against Providence, so Georgetown won't be counting on much produc tion from players off the pine.

WEDNESDAY, MARCH 26, 2003 a venue of late, averaging 14.3 points per game during his last four games and shooting 57.1 percent from long distance in his last six. “Melvin is shooting the ball extremely well,” said Coach Matt Doherty. “Since he’s been starting and playing more, our shooting percentages have gone up.” Scott originally was inserted into the starting lineup out of necessity when Jackie Manuel hurt his foot March 14. But Scott has taken much better care of the ball than Manuel Scott has committed just one turnover in his last 134 minutes —and his defense has improved to the point that UNC can’t justify playing Manuel over Scott solely on the basis of superior defense. “A lot of people don’t think I play good defense, but that’s one of the keys to my game,” Scott said. Scott has become a key to UNC’s game, and tonight he’ll get a chance to outshine Sweetney again. Contact the Sports Editor at sports@unc.edu.
