WEST LAFAYETTE (AP)-
Purdue's seniors have grown hungry
as their college careers wind down.
Last night, they showed they aren't
ready to go away quietly.
Seniors Brian Cardinal, Mike
Robinson and Jaraan Cornell rallied
*the Boilermakers from a 10-point
deficit in the second half to beat No. 6
Michigan State 70-67.
Cardinal led the way with 17 points
and Robinson added 16, 'while
Cornell had 10 of his 12 in the second
half.
The seniors recalled last year's visit
by Michigan State when the Spartans
broke a 30-30 tie and went on to a 60-
46 victory.
"We were very hungry, hungrier
*han we were last year," Robinson
said. "We took a lot of their plays
away and made them run motion..
That mhade them stand a little bit."
The Boilermakers (7-3 Big Ten. 16-
7overall) trailed 57-47 after Mateen
Cleaves hit a 3-pointer with 13:20 to
.play. Michigan State (7-2, 17-6) then
saw Purdue score 10 consecutive
points to tie the score on a free throw
by Robinson with 8:19 remaining.
0* "We missed a layup and dunk dur-
ing that stretch that allowed them to
get back in it," Michigan State coach
Tom Izzo said. "I really thought that
we lost the game in the first two min-
utes. I challenged our team after that."
Cardinal ignited the 10-point run
with a 3-pointer and two free throws.
Cornell hit a 3-pointer that gave
Purdue a 62-61' lead with 3:54
remaining.
Robinson's layup with 2:54 remain-
Ong put the Boilermakers ahead to stay
at 64-63.
Michigan State, which fell out of a
tie for first place in the conference
with Ohio State, then had three con-
secutive turnovers in 76 seconds and
the. Boilermakers went up 66-63 fol-
lowing the third when Cardinal snared
an offensive rebound and laid it in
with 1:19 left.

The Spartans fouled Robinson with
40 seconds left "and he gave the
Boilermakers a 68-63 lead with two
free throws.
Andre Hutson put in an uncontested
layup with 28 seconds to go for
Michigan State and the Boilermakers
held off the Spartans as Robinson and
Carson Cunningham each made one
of two free throws.
"When they got down 10, 1 asked
them in the huddle if they really
thought they could win. They said yes
without hesitating, so I believed them
and their eyes said that." Purdue
coach Gene Keady said. "I was hop-
ing that if we got them into a close
game, because they hadn't had one in
several games, that it might help us...
I'm proud of the kids determination
and they wvay they hung in there."
A.J. Granger of the Spartans
matched his career high with 1 7
points and also had a career-high 12
rebounds. Cleaves was the only other
Spartan in double figures, reaching it
when he made a lay-up in the final
seconds to finish with 11. He also had
nine assists.
The Spartans consistently outmus-
cled the Boilermakers, especially at
their end of the court. Michigan State

Notre Dan
SOUTH BEND (AP) - Notre Dame
athletic director Mike Wadsworth will
resign as part of a restructuring less
E han two months after Notre Dame's
ffirst major scrape with the NCAA over
ruI-25 violations.
Wadsworth and Notie Dame presi-
*et the Rev. Edwar-d A. Malloy said in
a stamement Monday that Wadsworth
would leave his post when his five-year
contract ends this year.
A specific date for his departure has
ict been set.,
' I believe it's in both the university's
,.Ind my best interests to end my tenure
.his year;" Wadsworth said.
The NCAA in December put Notre
aw~e's storied football program on
"Oprobation for the first time in the
school's history and took away two
scholarships.
The penalties stem from the relation-
;4hip between Irish players and former
~ooster Kimberly Dunbar, who emnbez-
fled more than S I.2 million from her
-mployer and then lavished the playeis
A-ith gifts, trips and money.
" I stated in December that the univer-
-4y's response to the recent problems in
Our football program had included a
.ompichensive external review of our
ie AD quits in wake of probation
athletic policies and procedures"
Malloy said.
"As a result of that review, I have
decided to institute a substantial
restructuring of administrative respon-
sibilities in athletics.
"In light of this restructuring, Mike's
five-year commitment, and the conclu-
sion of the current five-year plan in ath-
letics, he and I agree that now is the
time for a fresh start for us both."
Wadsworth's future at Notre Dame
came in question last year after univer-
sity officials soundly rejected his
choice of Utah coach Rick Majerus to
take over the school's foundering bas-
ketball program from John MacLeod.
Wadsworth also has been criticized
by some Notre Dame fans for engineer-
ing the resignation of popular football
coach Lou Holtz in 1996.
Wadsworth Holtz with Bob Davie,
who has compiled a 2 1- 16 record over
the past three seasons, including a 5-7
finish in 1999- Notre Dame's worst
sinice 1963.
GOPH ERS GET NEW COORDINATOR:
Following offensive coordinator Steve
Loney's resignation Thursday, the
Pioneer Press reported that Minnesota
head coach Glen Mason is expected to
give quarterbacks coach Tony Petersen
the duties of running the offense.
The Pioneer Press also ieported that
Petersen. not Loney, had been the one
calling the offensive plays for the
Gophers throughout the 1999 season.
Lonev will take over the offensive
coordinatoi job at Iowa State - a posi-
tion he held prior to taking the job at
Minnesota two seasons ago.
Petersen, Loney's replacement, came
to Minnesota prior to the 1999 season.
He will become Minnesota's third
offensive coordinator under Mason.
Mason is expected to make his deci-
sion official Monday. Mason says the
new coordinator must use the current
system, and Petersen fits that require-
ment.
"We're not going to change our
offense" Mason said. "If it's broke, fix
it. We're not broke."
