Paul, who plans to major in physics, didn'tVant to take any chances ; on a second rate education. Likins will have his hands full covering Wolfpack center Mel Thompson. He will have a six inch height advantage over the State star, but Thompson has outperformed most of the taller centers .thrown against him this year. .
