How does college wrestling compare with high school wrestling? Mooney: lmen\ily. A lot more in1enw A 101 more stnucgics arc being used 10 score. It's a big jump from being a senior in high school 10 college freshman. In high school, from fruhman to senior there's not much of a jump.

Great coaches being Lady Cards' get ready made the scapegoat Disappointing road trip Can anyone t!.111111¢ who has won lhe most regular

season games over 1he course of the Inst three SC3.Wns in the N.B.A? lfyou l~- ----,- - - 1 answered the Phoenix Suns. give yours.:Lr a hct111y round of applause. The Suns, riding on the broad ~houldcr.; of 0,nrles Barkley, hnve averaged over 51 wins dunng lhe la.st 1.hree N.B.A rompaigns. The brains behind this excellen1record is the ever dnpper head C03Ch Paul Westphal. Who. on the other hand, is lhe winninge~• coach ever in Cheye.nne Mahnke the his1ory of profes~ional Opinion foo1ball. Who is the only - - - - - - - coach in any or the four major professional spons leagues in 1he U.S. to guide his team 11> undefeated season thnt culminated in a national championship. That's n no bminer. right? Don Shula has been a South Aoridn instiru1io11 ever since he brought his mnovntive >1yle or ploy to Miami in the early 1970's. Thud and final question. Wha1 do Wcstphnl and Shula have in common? Another no brainer. Currently bo1h of these coaches are unemployed and wondenng what thl'-y could have done 10 please their chop happy managemenL In the case of the Suns, the only blame 10 what hos been a lad(lu~ltr year should go 10 the vicious injury bug that hns bi11en Charles Barl:ley, Kevin Johnson, Danny Manning and, Hot Rod Williams. Sun's maruigemem, A.K .A Collon Fitzsimmons, hasn't taken 1his into consideration and instead decided that Wesrph31 makes a nice scope-goat. This continues whnt I view 10 be a disturbing trcnd in the world of athletics: dump the coach when 1hc going gets a liule bumpy. Wes1phol wa.n 't the Suns problem. Westphal was savvy enough 10 balanc.l the comp.i.ting ego·, of a talent rkh club (which nobody 01Golden State or Dalla~ has been able 10 do) and Mill put W's in the column. Westphal pulled productive s1artcrs out or la1e lirst round draft choicll..~ the IIISt two years. Bo1h &wcet shooting Wesley P.ir..on and \uper-nthle11c Micheal Finley wercn ·1~upposed 10 be as good as they are in 1hc N.8.A. Don Shula was alM> shafted by Dolphins management. Bnsically, owner Wayne Huttingn told him in no unccnain h!nl\1 that the only way he could stay as the Dolphin's coach was by firing all of hit assis1an1 coaches. some of whom had been with him for over ten years. I don ·11hink its 100 classy to give someone with Shula's lnlek record ultimatums that are illogical and obviously a thinly m.'ISked auempc to boot him out the door. Shula desel\les n ton of ~pee, for telling Hui1.inga "no thanks." and leaving with his dignity intact after what had been a tough year in Miami. The least Hui7.inga should have done was let Shula leave on hi$ own renns. Both Wwphal and Shula took the fall for management and impatient fans. I believe rhat they a«ompli.sbed enough with their respective teams 10 have been given at least one more chance.

21. Eric Sanchez played the role of the "Sand Mon" u he quietly lolled the E.1gles to ~leep with his t~nacious defense. nnd quiet-as-o-mouse scoring. Until with 68 seconds left he decided to ignite the largest crowd of the year tit Harry Christianson Gymnasium by gun-slinging in three enormous three-point shots to bring the Cards with in one poin1. NIC h11d the ball for the final shot with IO seconds 10 go but reserve point guard Quentin Hall missed a running 10-footer. Both ccams pounced for the rebound and scrnmbled for it on the floor while the linal four seconds ticked of the clock. "We set up in our 41 offense for Steve (Kelm) to Ulke his man one-on-one off of the drive but he couldn '1 get around his guy to get the ball." head coach Rolly Williams said. The Cards tJailed by as many as 13 points in the second hair. Sanchez. scored

2 1 points to lead the Cards in scoring. Darnell McCoy added 15 poin1s. The Cardinals rebounded from the loss to East.e m winning their next two games including a route over a strong Ricks ball club 90-66. "11,c fim ten minutes we got afler them and it looked like we were going to destroy them," Williams said. "111en we looked as bad as we can look. In the second half we got after them m~n-10man." NIC scored the first 23 points of the game. The key wns the Cardinals 1-3- 1 trap. WIiiiam, became fearful of 1he easinc~, of bow the Vikings ben1 the trap the last 10 minute~ of the half. "The thing thnt hothcrtd me was the way they tool. our trap apart," William~ sa,d. Ricks climbed back in the gnmc behind 1he 1hrcc-point shooting of Josh Zcnter. 7~ntl!r made lhree treys before the end of the hair. "I reolly chewed our guys out 01 hair be<:nuse we could hnve put a lid on ii," Willinms ~nid. Kevin Byrne srnned in 1hc place or Roy Kruiswyk (who was out wi1h n cnlf injury) and scored nine poiIll~ wilh IO boards. "Kevin (Byrne) played really well." William. ,aid. Troy 11,ompson scored 18 of his '23 points in the ~econd half. Helm added 13 point~ and six assisis. The Cards' gained back their confidence by annihilating visiti ng Community Colleges of Spokane 10753. Thompson scored 18 points in 1hc winning effort. Possibly the Cardinals biggcs1 win so far was a 79-73 win over CSL The win is the Cards lirst in Twin Falls since the 1993-94 season. Hall was a perfect 7-7 from the lield with 18 points to pace the Cards, who mode 12 of 23 three-point shots.

Plot recap: A film about the kind of love thnt comes around once inn lifetime. "Bed of Roses" is a modem. storybook romance starring Christi'1n Slater and Mary Stuar1 Masterson. Set against the magical backdrop of seasonal New York City, the film is about n workaholic inves1mcn1 banker who !begins receiving extraordinary nornl arrangements from a secret admirer. In the days 1ha1 follow, she seeks to learn the identity of the mysterious sender. But what she discovers is there is no wrong time to roll in love.

by Shannon Harwood Sen1i11tl Repomr "Bed of Roses" left me underwhelmed. Is that a word? Well. even if it isn ·,. it ccnainly expresses the feeling the movie left me with. It was billed as the romantic movie of the year, but if this was true, then "National Lampoon's Senior Trip" was the comedy or the year. You're talking 10 a girl who cncd when the velociraptor died in "Jurassic Park," but managed 10 remain completely dry~yed dunng this nick. Lis:i. n linlc disturbed by the fact he was lurking under her window, decides to give him n chance. She soon learns 10 leave her oflice nnd enjoy life a linle. Lewis changes her whole pc.rspecuvc on life and in exchange, she gives him love that he desperately seeks. 1admit I foll my hcan melting around 1he edges, bu1 the characters were somehow underdeveloped. The romnmic 1hing\ 1ha1 Lewis (Slater) did, would melt any woman's hean. Alas. the audience never ge•~ 10 know the characters well enough 10 eitpcriencc 1ha1 feeling in Lisa (MMtcrson). The no1ion 1he ~tory was built on hod major posstbili1ies. A fantastic first anempl for filmmaker Michael Goldenberg. A seem adnmcr, a fresh 1ype of love, but pans of i1 bordered on corny. Twenty dozen rose~ being sent 10 your door nmy indeed be mushy. - - - - bu1 1( any man of mine had 1h01 kind of money. he best be spending t1 on e::, e::, je"clry or some1hing 1h01 won ·1 die in a week. .

Se111i11e/ Reporter The 1easer for "Bed of Roses'' 1s, "He gave her nowers. She gave him a chance."' As you might guess this is a movie about romance. Mary Swan Masterson's character is n linlc gun-shy and a 101 neurotic when it comes 10 love. Christion Slater's character wasn ·1 looking for love, but is ready 10 dive in head first against the ndvice of his sister. I don '1 know what it was about 1his movie that left me feeling unfulfilled. All I can say is that the charnc1c~. script and the plot all had potential that they didn'1 quite mec1. I'm no1 surprised: I think New Linc Cinema ha~ b\.'Cn Oooding 1hc market with

Thursday, February 8, 1996 underdeveloped movie.~. All I huvc to sny 1s that I wns pleased 10 sec Sln1er ploying a role 1ha1 wa~ closer 10 his ac!Ual age. He also docsn ·1 have any renl changes in his voice or mannerisms. 1feel they strongly resemble Jack Nichelson·s. ls 11 on purpose or are they related in some obscure way? I s1rn think i1's cute ihough, so I shan't say any more on the subject. (You might !Um thi~ page in disgust.) Moving on... Mas1erson's ponrayal of Lisa, the uptight citecutive. is ye1 another adaptation of ei1her her personality or the one she ha~ been stuck with because of the roles she picks. Nol 10 say 1hn1 I don '1 1hink she is a good nc1rcss, il's jus11ha1 I sec similaritic~ in 1hc characters she choose~ 10 play All of them have emo1io11ol problem~. I would like 10 see her in a role that was more of a surprise. maybe an action adventure or something. Back 10 11tc lack of development or characters in this movie. I was disappointed 111 1he rare glimpses we were given into the chamctcrs' mo1iva1ion~. A dream, a convcrsmion wilh n worried sister. and a bluned ou1 confession jus1 don't cul it. They should have Cllpandcd on them or lcfl 1hcm ou1entirely. I give "Bed of Roses" 1wo reel because I didn'1 ge1 sa1isfnc1ion. b b
