S BY SUE NEILSON ( j' Sports Staff ('.?SOUTH OF UTAH: Will he ever win again. p'ach Jack Gardner disproved and disallusioned ."season prognosticators last weekend as the :iversity of Utah was bombed by perrennial j rn University of Texas-El Paso Friday night, 56. "All-American" candidate, Mike Newlin "ned in one of his more unusual performances as c ' scored three points for his season low and then levolently fouled out. However, Eddie Trail C!Sred 16 points and "Mr. Consistency," Ken ': rdner, sank a respectable 19 points. '' Leaving El Paso the Utes hoped the tide would tte:inge in Albuquerque. It didn't, at least not in the t::al outcome. The New Mexico Lobos added -ssult to injury" as they tipped the charging Btdskins 78-77. lt" Newlin redeemed himself to some extent as he I -tted 25 points. New Mexico's Willie Long was rat far behind with 22 points for his efforts, xrhis is by far the worst start a Jack Gardner Niched team has had that I can remember. LEAST NORTH-EAST OF UTAH: Wyoming's t wboys whipped Arizona's Wildcats in Laramie, E.-65. Arizona had been picked by preseason nLignosticators to be co-favorites with Utah for the Western Athletic Conference crown. The question how is not who will win the conference, but who were the prognosticators and where did they come from. Both Utah and Arizona rest in the Conference Con-ference cellar. SALT PALACE: Salt Lake's Golden Eagles took it on the chin last weekend as the, Seattle Totems ended their winning ways on home ice, 3-2. The following night the hottest team in the Western Hockey League, Phoenix, seared the Eagles 5-3 in a rather unexciting display. The Eagles went in spurts, the Roadrunners went all the way, and won. HPER CENTER: Intramural table tennis, round three results must be turned in to the Intramural Office by 4 p.m. Entries for the free throw contest must also be in by tomorrow at the closing hour of the complex. The free throw contest will be held Tuesday. BOWL GAMES: The Western Athletic Conference Con-ference was well represented in the Senior Bowl and the various North-South bowl games last weekend. Leading the pack was Arizona State's J.D. Hill, playing at offensive end and fielding punt returns. Others included Utah"s Norm Thompson, and Brigham Young's Chris Farasopolis, in the defensive backfield of the North at the Senior Bowl. Wyoming's Bob Jacobs handled the kicking chores for the North team in the Hula Bowl. |
