bed the next NBA franchise as he went up to shoot, and Baile - and W ' hittenhurj; iced the W ' oifpack ' s first ACC championship since 1974 — another memorable year for Pack fans. The Pack was in the NCAA Tournament and 3,000 miles from home. Hello Corvallis, Oregon. The Pepperdine Waves, underrated by everyone, looked upon it.self as a Cinderella team that was gonna knock off the big boys. Blame it on first- round jitters or jet lag, but the Pack missed its first 12 shots and found itself in a dogfight with the West Coast Athletic Con- ference champs. With the game tied, 47-47, and 2:39 left, the Pack held for the final shot. Lowe drove to the basket but made one move too many and lost the bail with two seconds left. Pepperdine couldn ' t get a shot off, and the game went into overtime. Reserting to its typical overtime form, the Pack let the Waves jump out to a quick six-point lead. .53-47. As the Waves missed free throws, Gannon can- ned a bomber. Charles muscled one in and Baile ' scored on a fastbreak that pulled the Pack to within two with 23 seconds remaining. For the Pack. 23 seconds was enough time to have a cup of tea and still pull off a miracle or tAvo. After Pepperdine mis.sed a free throw, Whit- tenburg mis.sed from the charity stripe. Suddenly it was Co ' s turn to wear the superman suit; c-enter Cozell McQueen grabbed the rebound and tossed an eight-footer through the hoop sending the two weary teams to a second overtime. Realizing that enough was enough, the Pack jumped out to a quick lead on eight Whittenburg free throws and two by Charles before the Waves made their final run. Gannon and Alvin Battle made steals in the waning seconds as the Pack escaped round one with a 69-67 double overtime nerve-wracking victory. Bring on the Runnin ' , Gunnin ' Rebels of Nevada-Las Vegas. Sidney Green had gained considerable atten- tion from the State players by his highly touted .skills on the court and widely open mouth off the court. Green had said that Bailey hadn ' t impressed him at ail and that Brooklyn budd ' Charles always had been and still was under me . Bad choice of words, Mr. Green. The Pack trailed 52-40 with 11 -.40 to go and the Runnin ' Rebels should have known that it was all over. The Pack, behind the inside strength of Bailey and Charles, roared back to trail by only four with 7:49 left. Baile - would eventualK- get 25 points and Charles 17 points. Bailey put the Pack down by one, 70-69, on a baseline jumper, and UNLV ' s Eldridge Hudson 138 Sports
