Gaels are blowing "r-°'-05through WCAC on way to NCAAs By Kirk Kenney Tribune Sportswriter I T'S ALMOST NCAA Tournament time. What team do you like to win it all in Seattle? North Carolina? Louisville? Indiana? George- town? Duke? Oklahoma? Arizona? One of them has to be your favorite. They're perennial favorites. . But deep down inside, you're always pullmg for an underdog, too. A team that doesn't have a prayer, then jumps up and preys on one of the favorites.. . . The beauty of it is you never know who 1t ts until the tournament bracket is announced. That's because you've never heard of the team before. Murray State? Lehigh? Marist? Fairfield? Marshall? Drexel? C'mon, Drexel. • The perennial favorites capture the championships. The unknowns capture the imagination. How can they miss with nicknames like Thoroughbreds, Engineers, Red Foxes, Stags, Dragons and Thundering Herd? Go Thund- ering Herd. They don't have a chance. But they're given one. Who gets the chance this season? Whi~h team goes from being a face in the crowd to becoming a feature story? From center court to center stage? The secret can be kept no longer. It's St. Mary's. The Gallopin' Gaels. St. Mary's can go to the NCAAs by winni~g the W~t Coast Athletic Conference Tournament the first week m March or by receiving an at-large berth from the NCAA. One way or another, people will be hearing from the Gaels. And about them. The name St. Mary's may sound vaguely familiar. The school was a powerhouse in the 1920s, '30s and '40s. But that was in football. There's a reason why most of the nation never beard of St. Mary's basketball before this season. There wasn't anything worth hearing. The last time St. Mary's won 20 games in a season was in 1942. The last time the Gallopin' Gaels went to the NCAA Tournament was in '59. But St. Mary's earned its 20th win in 23 games Saturday by beating Loyola Mar- ymount for the second time in conference play. The NCAAs are next on the agenda. USD knows all about St. Mary's travel plans. The Toreros and Gaels are travel partners in the WCAC. They play host to each other this week. The te~ms meet tomor- row night in Moraga and Saturday mght at the ~SD Sports Center. St. Mary's is tied with Pepperdine fo~ first place in the WCAC at 8-2. USD-(6-16) stands last 10 the WCAC at 1-9. When USD coach Hank Egan thinks of St. Mary's, he is reminded or the USD team he took to the NCAA Tourna- ment two years ago. "When I came here, we were 16-11, then 19-9 and then strung it together pretty good," said Egan, who we~t to the NCAA Tournament his third season at USD with a team that returned four senior starters. "They're the same way. They were down at the bottom, then they won 17 games, then they won 19 games. This year they come in and they've already fought some battles together, had some ups and downs and they've just matured. "I see a lot of similarities between this team and the one we had and for that reason I like them. I think they're very steady. They ex'e very well." The Gaels were 17-13 nd 19-9 in their first two seasons under coach Lynn N ce. All five senior starters re- turned this season. rward Robert Haugen leads St. Please see GAELS: , Col. 5

a City Council comm1tte last year that car dealers along freeways ed . ome flexibility within the Cl· ;;. 8 strict Rign code.

Sometimes the board can stick 1t to City Hall, which may not be en• tirely productive, but satisf~mg nonetheless. Zoning regula~1ons prohibit the use of harp pointed fences, like barbed wire, around your business. If you're using it. it . t means no one's complained or JUS , t thr city's fence-police hasn t swep through your neighborhood yet. Well, the SBAB pointed out to a council committee that, 1) such fences are nee sary in some neighborhoods to deter the bad guys, and, 2) city government uses such fences around plenty of its property The burenucrats are mulling that om· .
