And cue up Phantom of the Opera's "Music of the Night." Saturday will go down as the Day of Mourning in the Western Athletic Conference. There was wailing from Albuquerque to El Paso; everywhere but in Provo where losing was sweet, sweet sorrow. It was the most critical night of upset basketball of the season. Three first place teams (BYU, New Mexico and UTEP) lost. And the Cougars, by virtue of a night playing outside the league, took sole possession of first place. LaSalle University put on a display of missile launch basketball in pistol whipping the tired Cougars But over the mountains Air Force upset UTEP, Wyoming lassoed New Mexico. And Utah got (gulp) swept by Colorado State. Today the Cougars, 17-- 5 and 3 in the WAC sit humbled but enthralled alone atop the league throne. "Everybody said out win Thursday at Air Force was such an ugly win. Ask UTEP how ugly our win at Air Force was," said Reid. Jack Hurd, a 6 gunner, buried a jump shot with four seconds to play in leading the Explorers past BYU 8 "I could see the rim. I knew it was in when it left my hands," said Hurd. "As you saw, we have confidence shooting the ball. ' ' Just 14 seconds earlier Russell 9 Larson put BYU ahead with a leaning five footer capping a miraculous Cougar comeback from 16 points back. Mark Heslop got off a desperation shot at the buzzer which bounced softly and rolled off the rim. It broke a BYU 10 game home win streak. BYU was lucky it even had a chance to win it. "I'll trade a loss to LaSalle over a loss at AFA any time," said 6-- 80-7- Reid. 8-- UVCC SPLITS: Dixie s Brent '.Sharp scampered home with the run in the seventh inning , winning on a Damon Jangard wild pitch as the Rebels nipped Utah Valley giving Community College ; Dixie a split in Saturday's doubleheader in St. George.

We knew from looking at tapes we'd have to play well and shoot our best to have a chance. BYU is a lot like LaSalle. We both have traditionally respectable programs but never get the recognition. BYU should be nationally ranked." Reid said the Cougars were fortunate to even get a crack at LaSalle. "We lost the game in the and first half. We got early. That is when we lost the game. I was proud of the way our players fought back. ' ' Reid had to turn to his bench get players who wanted a fight. BYU's starters, feeling the efroad swing, fect of a three-gam- e out-hustl- ed played pooped.
