Sloan: "Super..." by Elliott Wernoek Sports Editor REYNOLDS COLISEUM, RALEIGH "The magic is back" announced N.C. State guard Monte Towe, as he strode into the dressing room after his team's narrow 88-85 victory over arch-rival North Carolina. But Wolfpack head coach Norm Sloan, who is known for his ability to pull rabbits out of his hat at the damnedest times, had to dig deep into his bag of tricks Saturday to pull out the win. Trailing 85-79, with 1:27 to play in overtime, things looked dim for the defending national champion Pack. ' It took two straight baskets by State center Phil Spence (the second coming with a little help from a goaltending call on UNCs Mitch Kupchak) to get the Pack to 85-83, with 1:09 to play. Seconds later, Towe fouled Carolina freshman Phil Ford, who missed on the one-and-one opportunity at the foul line, and Kenny Carr pulled down the crucial rebound for the Wolfpack. With 0:41 to play in the ACC battle, State's All-Universe forward David Thompson cranked up and hit from 18 feet to tie the game at 85-85. Carr set the Pack out ahead to stay with 0: 17 left as he hit both shots of a one-and-one situation following a Ford foul. Thompson (seems like he's everywhere, doesn't it?) blocked a Walter Davis attempt in the corner, and with 0:08 to play UNCs Tommy LaGarde found himself on the wrong end of the official's finger . for the fifth and final time. Mo Rivers was awarded two shots, missed the first and hit the second to make it 88-85: Carolina's last gasp came with 6:05 to play as Rivers fouled Davis, who missed his one-and-one chance. The game ended with a flurry of hands, bodies. Converse basketball shoes and Carolina losing to North Carolina State for the ninth straight time. 'A Classic' "This certainly was a classic Carolina-State game to watch," commented UNC coach Dean Smith afterwards. "I'm extremely disappointed for the team; they came here to play and have been improving each game." Smith noted the six-point lead Carolina held in the overtime period, which started with a 77-77 tie after Spence missed a foul shot with 0:01 in regulation. "When you're ahead by six in overtime, you shouldn't lose. Six points ahead . . . I liked the situation. UI was happy we got to overtime," he continued. "I thought we were in good shape, playing the nation's number three team on their home court." . The Tar Heels did seem in good shape at the time, with the exception of LaGarde's forced exit from the game with five fouls. Carolina led the game in shooting percentage, hitting 57. 1 per cent in the first half, 60.0 in the final regulation period and finishing with 58.6 per cent to State's 52.7. j Most of Carolina's troubles came at the free throw line, where the Heels hit 17 of 23, and in the turnovers category. The Heels had 19 turnovers to State's 12, most of UNCs coming in the closing minutes of play. State had six steals to Carolina's four. Thompson (same fellow) led the game's scorers with 20 points; Davis and Brad Hoffman followed for UNC with 19 and 18 respectively. LaGarde finished with 17, Kupchak with 14 and Ford with 13. 'Super ball game . . For State, it was the morale boost the Pack needed after suffering a shellacking at the hands of Maryland in College Park; for Carolina, it was as close as one can get to a moral victory, if there is such a thing. The Tar Heels had State on the ropes and let the Pack slip away. "No wonder basketball is so popular in this conference," said Sloan. "I'd be trying to get tickets too. "1 thought we played a super ball game stated Sloan. "It was a great game. Carolina has a fine team ... not at all the same team we beat in the Big Four Tournament." Carolina, now 8-4 overall and tied for second in the ACC with State at 2-1, must look ahead to this Wednesday when the Tar Heels host the Virginia Cavaliers at 8 p.m. in Carmichael. The Cavs are coming fresh off an upset 60-56 victory over Duke in Charlottesville Saturday. fcCwy Smith: "Classic..."

"A win like this has to do us good, especially since Carolina played, so well." But the Wolfpack went about getting its needed medicine the hard way. All-star David Thompson played the final 23 minutes of the game with four fouls. The Wolfpack was down by six points with lj27 "left ontRe clock. With the score tied at 77-77 at the end of regulation play, big Phil Spence missed a free throw. Sloan noted that the Wolfpack's being down by six and then rallying to topple their opponent was reminiscent of the heartstopping game the pack played against UCLA in the national semifinals last year. Thompson had 20 points to lead game scoring and the six other State players in double figures. The Tar Heels were paced by Walter Davis with 19 points, but four other Carolina players came up with'double figure scores. Maryland, back confident from a 103-85 romp of North Carolina State Thursday, easily downed Navy 87-73. In other ACC action, Virginia beat Duke 60-56 and Clemson defeated Wake'Forest 80-77. Maryland, still at the top of ACC standings with no losses in four conference outings and only one loss in 13 overall outings, was led in scoring against Navy by John Lucas who racked up 20 points for the Terps. : ' ; tWally-Walker had a game hjgij,8 points -i. in rginia's;.wjja ;ovjer,.lhfclueJDils in game that was close' alP theTvay. The Cavaliers had the lead 30-28 at the half and the lead see-sawed until Andy Boninti hit two foul shots with 48 seconds left in the game. Wake Forest was hot in the first half of action against the Tigers, but reminiscent of earlier season games, the Deacons cooled down in the second half. At the half the Deacons had a 45-36 lead over Clemson, but the Tigers came back to play what coach Tates Lock called "our best 10 minutes of the year" in the second half. The ACC teams are idle now until Wednesday when Maryland goes up against Clemson (2-2, 7-7); Virginia ( 1-3, 7-5) travels to North Carolina (2-1,11 -2); and Duke ( I -2, 8-4) takes on Wake Forest (1-4, 7-5).
