Then. Y.ith Flonda Tech's Mike Spivey at the free throw line, USD's William Stewart voiced his feelmgs to the refs who called a technical on the San Diego senior forward Spivey converted on all three free throws and the game was out of reach. USD Coacp Jim Brovelli, keeping in character, refused to blame the loss on the officials who Y.ere pro- vided by the NCAA from the Southeast Conference. With the loss, USD ended its sea n at '/2.-7 - it's best ever - and a chance to compete In the ;';CAA II finals this Friday and Sat- urday in Springfield, :'Vlo ror F1orida Tech (26-2), it was the ftrst tfme in 10 years thP team played be- fore a packed house (ap- proximately 3,000) In their own gjm and the first time it ever advanced to the na- tional finals. Flonda Tech ls matched up v.ith Cheyney State (2!>- 2) Friday while No , !- ranked University of Wis- consin at Green Bay (30.1) plays Eastern Illinois (21· 9) , "1 'm sorry the game ended the way it did," sald Florida Tech Coach Eugene "Torehy" Clark, "USO was much quicker than we ever Imagined."

Clark agreed that the offi- ciating was questionable at times, but added : ''Those calls go both ways. We felt a few called against us were absolutely unreal."

The decision regarding seeking NCAA Div1Sion r status for USD's basketball team m future years has bee delayed until May 19 according to Tom Burke, the school's athletic director. The school's administrative board met last Friday, but at the request of Burke deferred a decision on the basketball program's future until its quarterly meeting in May "We have so~e more poliShing to do on the proposal, and need the time to get things as well thought out as possible before we ask the board for a decision," said Burke. "There are other ramifications to the idea that affect not only basketball but the baseball, golf and tennis programs, and the women's program as well." USD, CWTenUy an NCAA Division II affiliate operating independently of conference ties, has been researching several possible courses for the team m the future. Included among the posslb1Jit1es are maintaining DIVi- sion II status and seeking membership in the California Collegiate Athletic Association (CCAA) or petitioning for NCAA Division I (major school) status in the sport. If the Toreros were to seek, and be granted, DMsion I status, they would have two years to upgrade the schedule to where the team would be playing 75 per cent of its games against major colleges by the 1980-81 season.

Of Europe's co-determination trend, Markwell observed "It's a system which has worked - m West Germany Holland and Sweden it has worked well." Amencan managers overseas will discover other modes which may shock them; ''The attitudes of young people are different than those of the older managers. In Europe, the young people will say they want to. have a ~areer, bu they do not want to succeed by pushing anot.ier persor> down," Markwell said. . .
