Two similar teams meet for coveted NCAA title
INDIANAPOLIS (AP)-For the teams involved, the NCAA championship game tonight will be just like looking in the mirror.
"I'll go to be a classic matchup of two quick teams," pregame press conference before tonight's game against UCLA. "pregame press conference before tonight's game against UCLA."
Along with the similar attributes of quickness, the finalists also have relatively short lineups and are similarly studied with young players. Louisville has three sophomores and a freshman among its to five players. UCLA starts with an all-freshman backcount.
The comparisons continue to the type of offenses the teams run—the high-post. Both coaches get the idea from former UCLA coach Jack Mason.
There's a reason for that in *Crum*'s case, of course. He played at NAIA and coached there under Wooden, who won 16 NCAA championships.
"I had the opportunity to learn from the best coach I've ever seen." Crum said.
Crum also had the opportunity to learn from his own experience in these NCAA playoffs. He coached in the 1972 and 1975 championship rounds, ironically losing both times to UCLA in the semifinals.
He holds no animosity against UCLA as a result of those losses, however.
"I wouldn't be here today without them," Crum said. "I learned everything I know from UCLA."
ever ying knew from OCR.
One of the crucial things that Crum learned was the importance
of the pressing defense—a tactic that has carried the Cardinals through the Midwest Regionals and past Iowa into the national final
"A lot of people look at us as a run-and-gun team," Crum said, but our strong point is our defense. You don't get far without it.
Most everyone in Market Square Arena, though, no doubt will be more cognizant of Louisville's offense—particularly Darrell Griffith's griffith. Griffith, the Louisville "skywaker," with the 48-third pick in the Cardinals' 80-72 victory over Iowa in Saturday's semifinals.
UCLA Coach Larry Brown hopes to keep the 6-foot-4 guard considerably below that future tonight.
"We haven't decided yet who's going to guard Griffith." Brown
said. 'I don't think you can stop him altogether. But if we can make him tougher and keep him off the foul line, we'll be doing the job.'
Griffith can do more things than score, however. Brown is aware of the All-America's all-around game.
"He reminds me a lot of David Thompson," said Brown, who once conferred that pro superstar with the Denver Nuggets. "Griffith is very unselfish. He will give the ball up to a teammate if he can play better." Griffith on the boards and he makes the hit play to get his team go-ahead.
Griffith will be the third All-America player that the Bruins to contain in this tournament. Early, they were successful against DePau and Mark Aguirie in a second-round upset. UCLA, the West Regional winner, then beat Paul and 7-1-foot 1 Joe Barry Carroll.
Despite errors, KU softball team places third
By PATTI ARNOLD Sports Writer
Errors plagued the KU softball team this week and but the Jayhawks finished third of 24 teams in the Sooner Invitational in April, by beating Michigan State 1-4 Saturday.
KU committed seven errors in seven games, but the miscues came in bunches. Three errors gave Illinois State a 42-11 winning victory Friday and three more losses helped Missouri coast to the finals by scoring KU-30 in the semifinals Saturday.
But the experience wasn't all bad for the Jayhawks, who boosted their record to 13-6.
The Hawks have placed in the top three in the N.C. All-Star Game which is better than any team KU coach Stancklil has coached. KU was second in the New Mexico State tournament over spring training.
"IM REALLY pleased we've placed in both the tournaments," Stancliff said. "We never done this well this early, and we're still learning to teach some of the soaks we want to reach."
Good pitching was the story in the 'Hawks 1-4 victory over Michigan State. KU put together three singles and a sacrifice in the

Although Stanciff was pleased with the third-place finish, he said that with more consistency, KU would have been in the winner's title by beating Missouri S-2.
Rose Radeir off the inning with a single and Pam Cox followed with a bunt. Jill Larson sacrificed Cox and Rader to second and third before Kelia May hit a two-out run on first by Danny Garrison. Sanxiw scattered nine Wolverine hits and got herself out of tight spots several times.
IN THE semifinals, KU's third game of
Seattle's bench contributed 51 points to the effort. Wally Walker led the reserves with 14 points and 12 rebounds.
Balley got the startling role when forward Loanie Shelton twisted his right knee at night. And at Saturday night, The Kings were led by Ols Birdson's 16 points and Scott Wedman's 15.
