March 13, 1984, THE TRINITY TRIPOD, Page 15 More Sports Kentucky Will Rule In Seattle continued from page 16 the regional. Kentucky has been awesome at home and should easily advance to the regonal finals. Their opponent will be the survivor, of the Illinois-Maryland game. This should be a great match up of two extremely physically talented teams. It'll be a war with Maryland coming up one point better than the Big Ten co-champions. The Terps are on a roll, winning the ACC tournament, but not enough-of a roll to beat Illinois and Kentucky in three days. The Wildcats advance after a tough game with Maryland.

West Once again, Georgetown coach John Thompson owes selection committee head Dave Gavitt a thank you note. For the second time in three years the Hoyas have been seeded first in the west with a feast of hand picked opponents to whip up on before going on to Seattle. Georgetown's possible opponents divide nicely into two categories. UTEP and Duke are well-coached teams that are a little short on physical talent. UNLV and second seed Oklahoma are talented teams that like to play a quick paced game. The only problem is that G-Town plays a fast game better than either of these teams. Don't even worry about the opponent, Georgetown will be the west champion. That will set up a great match-up between Kentucky and Georgetown in the semis. The game is a draw. Both teams are tall up front, quick in the back court and have great depth. Give the slightest of edges to Kentucky and their corp of seniors. The other semifinal will be all Carolina. The Heels are too deep for Memphis State. And in the finals, Kentucky. Carolina has not shown that little bit extra that it takes to win a championship. They are talented enough to make the finals without the extra mental push but unless the Perkins revives the enthusiasm he had in January Kentucky will take the title. Of course, I hope I'm wrong.

World Famous Tourney Picks For the top seeds of the NCAA tournament there are a number of things that will go wrong. The question is, can they survive a cold day from the field or an. inferior opponent playing at its best? At some point in the tournament, all the top seeded teams will come to a moment of truth. The team that can survive an early subpar per- formance stands a good chance of going a long way. Let's take a look at who should go to Seattle and beyond.

East North Carolina got a bad/good draw as the top seed in the East. The bad comes next Saturday when the Tar Heels take on either Temple or St. John's. Carolina has traditionally had a tough time in the first round, and the Heels beat St. John's earlier in the season. However, this first game will take place in Charlotte and the combination of a home crowd and the desire to make up for Saturday's loss to Duke should get the Tar Heels into the round of 16. ' • Then comes the good for North Carolina. Arkansas is the second seed and the Razorbacks defeated Carolina earlier this season. Nothing would suit Dean Smith more than having revenge on his side in the regional Ken Abere (center) and Jim Bates exchange a hug in the final minutes of the win over Conn.phol° byJohn Shif(man finals.
