some mistakes balihandling and get-
ting out of the offensive pattern."
MICHIGAN, meanwhile, had
rediscovered its offensive pattern. Two
free throws by Robert Henderson,
layups by Tarpley and Joubert, a
Joubert charity toss and a breakaway
dunk by Tarpley put Michigan up 55-43
with 1:47 left.
Henderson was especially instrumen-
tal in the comeback, taking a crucial
charge and scoring six of his ten points
in the second half.
"He came and got some unexpected
rebounds," said Wilson. "We were
worried about Tarpley and Wade and
he surprised us."
THE KNIGHTS, however, had one
surprise left for the Wolverines. Tar-
pley's dunk, and a subsequent missed
jam by Gary Grant, gave Fairleigh
Dickinson two points on foul shots.
Though their fourth starter fouled out
with a minute and a half left, the
Knights pulled back to within two, 57-55,
with ten seconds left before Tarpley
iced the victory with two free throws.
"We got a little sloppy down the
stretch," said Wolverine coach Bill
Frieder. "That's the sign of a young
team that hasn't been in this situation
for a long time.''
The situation midway through the
second half looked anything but
promising for Michigan. According to
Hampton, the Knights could see defeat
in the Wolverines' faces.
"They looked like they were ready to
give up," said FDU's leading. scorer,
who finished with ten points. "I looked
at Joubert, and he was exhausted,
almost ready to fall down. I thought we
had them."
Tarpley, who led all scorers with 15,
said it wasn't quite that bad: "I was a
little worried, but I had confidence in
the team and the coaches that we could
come back and win, becaue that's the
waywe play."
The way they played in the first half
was atrocious. The Wolverines hit eight
of 26 from the floor, not quite 31 per-
cent, and featured such lowlights as
Joubert's zero for five shooting, Tar-
pley's one for five and Rockymore and
Garde Thompson's combined zero for
four.
The win puts Michigan's record at 26-
6 and sends it into tomorrow's second
round game here against Villanova at
12:11 p.m.
"We'll take it," Frieder said. "I hope
we'll play a little harder, a little
stronger on Sunday."

Holmes keeps David
at Bey with TKO
. -1
LAS VEGAS, Nev. (AP) - Larry
Holmes knocked~down David Bey twice
in the eighth round and then stopped. him
in at 2:58 of the 10th round last night to
retain the International Boxing
Federation heavyweight title in what
may have been Holme's last fight.
Holmes had Bey reeling from a series
of head shots when referee Carls
Padilla jumped in and stopped the bout.
The victory was Holmes' 47th against
no defeats, and he could join Rocky
Marciano as the only heavyweight
champions to retire without having lost
a fight.
Holmes has said he probably will an-
nounce his retirement June 9 but has
held open the possibility of another
fight. June 9 woUld be the seventh an-
niversary of his winning the World
Boxing Council title he relinquished in
December 1983.
"' This is it' means I'll retire if I don't
get an offer from Michael Spinks by the
end of April," Holmes said.

Special to the Daily
DAYTON, Ohio-Maryland coach
Lefty Driesell and his players may
have felt that Miami of Ohio, the
second-place team in the Mid-
America Conference, would be a break
after a rugged ACC campaign. The
Terrapins, who had one of the nation's
toughest schedules were favored to
cruise through this first-round NCAA
contest.
But the scrappy Redskins, urged on
by a heavily partisan crowd at the
University of Dayton Arena, gave
Driesell and crew more than they wan-
ted to handle. It took a steal off an in-

remaining in overtime to give
Maryland a 69-68 victory yesterday.
FIVE-FOOT-EIGHT GUARD Eric
Newsome put up a wild shot at the buz-

pset. The Redskins led 68-65, with 17
seconds left when Maryland's Adrian
Branch drove the baseline and put in a
short jumper.
, Maryland pressed on the next inbounds
pass. Branch stole the ball and Atkins
converted the turnover into the Terps'
24th victory of the season.

he lost it," said Branch who finished
with 24 points. "He thought the ball was
going out (of bounds) but it rolled in."
Miami forward Ron Harper, MAC
player-of-the-year, led all scorers with
26 points. Len Bias, the most valuable
player in the ACC, paced Maryland
with 25 before fouling out in overtime.
