Monday, March 30, 1 981The Daily Tar Hee!5, T7" T1 T1 1 sr;t By DAVID POOLE Maff Writer PHILADELPHIA On December 20, 1980, North Carolina and Indiana met in a nationally televised non-conference basket ball game in Chapel Hill, a game the Tar Heels won 65-56. Tonight, the two teams meet again, but this time there is a little bit more at stake than conference pride or Top 20 ranking. When the ball oes up in the Spectrum tonight the two teams will be battling for college basketball's biggest prize, the NCAA championship. . The coaches of the teams who have made it to the national finals, Dean Smith of North Carolina and Bobby Knight of Indiana, spent the lovely Sunday afternoon in Philly answering questions about what they think might happen in the game that begins at about 8:15 tonight. . "We'll play hard, and I know Indiana will play hard," Smith said. "The game will be decided by the players but there. We have a good team, and they're an excellent basketball team." "I don't think the game will revolve around one factor," Knight said. "Both teams will have to play well on both ends of the floor. The team that wins will be the one that plays-most solidly throughout the game." Smith said, "Indiana is a much better team now than they were when we played them in Chapel Hill. They have finally set tled on a lineup and the thing that concerns me most is their re bounding. It was just devastating against Louisiana State." "Every team presents a different set of problems," Knight said. "North Carolina probably goes from one defense to another as well as any team in the country. It'll be important for us to recognize what they are in and react to it." 1 Indiana's defense won't be much of a problem for North Carolina because the Hoosiers only play one a tough man-toman. Indiana is led by point guard Isiah Thomas a consensus Ail American and the most outstanding player in this year's Mideast regional. He is joined in the backcourt by Randy Wittman w ho made the all tournament team in the regional. The Hoosiers are also strong up front and the threesome of Landon Turner, Ted Kitchel and Ray Tolbert should give the Carolina inside trio of AI Wood, James Worthy and Sam Perkins a battle. The game, of course, will also be a battle between two of the nation's top coaches in Knight, who won the NCAA title here in Philadelphia in 1976, and Smith who is still looking for his first NCAA championship in this his sixth trip to the Final Four and his third shot in the final game. The big news in Philly on Sunday was Knight's behavior on Saturday night. A Philadelphia newspaper reported in its Sunday edition that Knight and an LSU fan were involved in a scuffle at a hotel in Cherry Hill, N.J. (just across the Delaware River from Philadelphia) late Saturday. ; . . ' , "This headline says, 'Knight, fan trade shoves, insults,' " Knight said, holding up a copy of the paper. "That's not fac tual. I did the shoving and he did the insulting." Knight explains that he was walking through the hotel lounge when an LSU fan offered congratulations for Indiana's victory over LSU Saturday. Knight said that his team had been called "Tiger bait" by LSU fans since the Hoosiers arrived at the hotel. So, in reference to that Knight said he told the fan "I guess we weren't 'Tiger bait after all." Knight said he walked on past the man who then stood up and began yelling at Knight and calling him names. Knight said that he "walked swiftly" back over to the fan, shoved him against the wall and deposited him in' a nearby trash can. "If it's wrong for me to shove a guy who calls me that (refer ing to the name), so be it," Knight said. "If it happened again tomorrow, I'd be wrong again tomorrow." The incident is just one in a long line of controversial events in the career of Knight. But as with the other incidents, this one wilf be forgotten by Knight as soon as the opening tip is thrown up and the matter of a NCAA championship is begun. Sports.

Cy KIM ADAMS Slaff Writer After a year at the Naval Prep Academy, Chris Kahler decided that he didn't want to make a change of scenery so he decided to try to transfer to Maryland. The Mary land coach, however, had already done all his recruiting and he turned Kahler down. Kahler came back to haunt the Terps Sunday by pitching a four-hitter in a route going performance to lead North Carolina to a 8-1 win over Maryland at Boshamer Stadium. "I was feeling pretty good until the sixth or seventh inning," Kahler said. "Coach Roberts just told me to remember to use my legs and then I was fine." Kahler had the advantage of an early six run lead. "It's a lot easier to throw when you come into an inning with a big lead," he said. "Also, Scott (Bradley) calls a great game. We work real well to gether." Kahler also had the advantage of fine defensive play by the Tar Heels, including a brilliant shoelace catch by Greg Schuler made in the 6th. Pete Kumiega and Chris Pittaro pro vided the offensive punch for the Tar Heels. Kumiega had a two-run homer, a two-run single and a double. Pittaro had a double and two singles. ; UNC, now 20-7, built an early lead on the strength of a two-run first inning and a four-run second Inning. Kumiega hit his home run in the first to score Pittaro who had doubled. Maryland starter Mike Romanousky lasted only an inning and a half and was tagged with the loss. In the second, Drex Roberts doubled and was singled home by Shawn Dean. Dean then stole second and scored on a sacrifice fly by Mitch McCleney. Pittaro singled then stole second and Bradley singled to right. Kumiega then singled to score both of them. Terp reliever. Robert Payne got Joe Reto to strike-out and Schuler to fly-out to finally end the inning. The Heels scored twice more in the seventh when Bradley singled, moved to third on a double by Kumiega, and scored on a wild throw. Joe Reto then singled Kumiega home. The Terps scored their only run in the seventh when Steve Johanson walked and advanced to second on a wild pitch. He scored on a double by Tom Weider.
