Cyclones lead NCAA s
76ers bruise
By The Associated Press
BALTIMORE - Sub Mike Rior-
dan scored 11 points in the final
quarter, leading New York to a
come-from-behind 106-99 victory
over Baltimore last night ,for a
2-0 lead in the National Basketball
Assocation's eastern semifinal
playoffs.
RIORDAN and starter Bill Brad-
ley, both of whom were scoreless
during the first half, combined for
28 points after intermission as the
Knicks overcame a nine-point de-
ficit in the second half.
With Wes Unseld c ontrolling
the boards, and Gus Johnson
scoring 20 points, Baltimore man-
aged a 51-48 lead at halftime and
upped it to 71-64 as Earl Monroe
became hot from the field and
rookie Fred Carter sparked Balti-
more with his hustling play.
A stuffshot by Willis Reed, the
NBA's most valuable player, put
New York ahead for keeps at 87-
86, but the Bullets remained on-
ly one point behind at 94-93 be-'
fore a six-point streak by the
Knicks put the game out of reach.
WALT FRAZIER was credited
with six assists while scoring 19
points for the Knicks and Dick
Barnett also fed his teammates on
six ;occasions.
The victory was the twelfth in
the last 13 games against Balti-
more for the Knicks and their
sixth straight in NBA playoff ac-
tion dating back to last season's
four-game sweep.
The Bullets who have lost 11
consecutive playoff games since
1965, overcame a seven-point defi-
cit in the second period after
blowing an eight-point lead in the
first quarter.
Baltimore failed to take ad-
vantage of foul situations in the
second and third periods.
THE BULLETS had a 5-0 ad-
vantage in fouls with 5:40 remain-
ing in the second quarter, but
did not attempt another free,
throw the rest of the half. New'
York, meanwhile, made two field,
goals while the Baltimore bench
yelled encouragement for deliber-
ate fouls, sank one free throw and
then Frazier connected on a 3-
point play.
With a 5-1 foul advantage in
the third period, Baltimore again
frittered away its chances and
didn't capitalize, on its oppor-
tunity.
Johnson, who made only eight
points in the series opener, fin-
ished with 28 points. Unseld grab-

bed 21 rebounds and was credited
with five assists for the Bullets.
Carter hounded the Knicks
much in the fashion of Frazier,
several times stealing the ball. He
finished with 12 points and seven
assists.
The third game of the best-of-
seven series will be played in New
York tomorrow afternoon.
P hill y wins brawl
MADISON - The Philadelphia
76ers, paced by Billy Cunning-
ham's 37 points, beat the Mil-
waukee Bucks 112-105 last night
to even tpeir National Basketball
Association best-of-seven playoff
series at 1-1.
Cuningham, the NBA's third;-
highest scorer in the regular sea-
son, had a field day after Greg
Smith, the Buck who guards him
best, got into early foul trouble
with four in the first quarter.
IT WAS evident the 76ers had
changed their game plan from
defense to offense after they
dropped the first game of the
ucks
series Wednesday night 125-118.
Hal Greer added 24 points, in-
cluding 18 in the first half, as
Philadelphia stepped out to a 63-
57 lead at intermission. L
The game was marred by a
third-quarter fist fight between
Don Smith of the Bucks and
Philadelphia's Luke Jackson. Both
were thrown from the game.
Lew Alcindor scored 33 points
to lead the Bucks and Bob Dan-
dridge added 22.
This game, like the first, was
played in Madison because of the
unavailability of the Bucks' home
court in Milwaukee. The next two
will be in Philadelphia, and the
fifth in Madison.
PHILADELPHIA ran up a 32-23
lead after the first quarter as
Wally Jones, who finished with 12,
scored 10 points.
The 76ers' margin widened to
86-77at the end of three quarters.
Pacers pounce
PITTSBURGH - The Indiana
Pacers, with Bill Keller and Roger
Brown hitting six for six from the
free-throw line, came from behind<
in the final minute and defeated
Pittsburgh 115-111 in American
Basketball Association action last
rnight.
Brown tied the score 109-109
Iwith a two-pointer with 1:09 left
in the game, and then he added
two foul shots to Keller's four.
Floridians fly
GREENSBORO, N.C. - Miami
fought off a fourth-quarter rally
laset night to defeat the Carolina
Cougars 112-107 in, an American
Basketball Association game.
The Floridians led nearly all
the way, basing their attack on the
hot shooting of Don Sidle, with
31 for the game, and Don Free-
man, with 25.
But Carolina fought back in the
last quarter to tip the lead their
way briefly at 73-70. The rally
fizzled, however, as Miami found
the range again and spurted past
the Cougars for the win.

so, first with Leeper of Indiana
7-3; then with Warren Gamble of

The Wolverines finished the day
t 43 points, behind Indiana's 89,
Stanford's 69, Southern Cal's 61,
and UCLA's 57 points.
The most profitable event of the
day for, Michigan turned out to
be the 200-yard individual med-
ley. Juan Bello took the consola-
tion race for seventh place and
seven points with a time of 1:55.7,
good enough forha third had he

ful and unbeatable, seems to have
50-yard freestyle by Tennessee's
Dave Edgar, finishing in a near

MIAMI - The Michigan Wol-
verine golf team came up with
four consistent rounds of golf yes-
terday and moved from eighth to
sixth place in the Miami Invita-
tional Golf Tournament, their first
outing of the new season.
KEITH MOHAN led the way
with a fine 74 and captain Randy
Erskine, Rock Pozza, and John
Roska added 76's for a 302 total
over the Biltmore Country Club
course. This was the same score
that the Wolverines shot Wednes-
day, the opening day of the tour-
ney on the same course.
Thursday, the linksmen were
hampered by high winds and pro-
duced a 312 total over the more
rugged Le Jeune Country Club,
the course that the golfers play
in today's final round.
With their 916 total, Michigan
is far behind the University of
Florida Gators who are setting
the tournament pace with a 871
strokes. The University of Miami,
Thursday's leader, dropped into
second while Florida State Uni-
versity, led by National Amateur
champion Steve Melnyk, are hold-
ing down the third spot.
IN THE INDIVIDUAL competi-
tion, Erskine sets the pace for the
Wolverines with 73-77-76-226. The
overall leader in the tourney is
stacy Russell of the University of
Florida who turned in a 214 total.
So far, Michigan has turned in
an excellent performance against
some of the best collegiate golfers
in the nation. The Wolverines en-
tered the tourney with a definite
disadvantage: lack of practice.
Prior to the actual tourney, t h e
team had only a few days of prac-
