Duke's NCAA history adds pressure to team
DURHAM, N.C. — The jerseys say Duke, but this team's experience amounts to nothing. None of these Blue Devil players has gone this far in the NCAA tournament.
The Associated Press
No school has enjoyed greater success than the Blue Devils this decade. They've had national titles in 1991 and 1992 and five consecutive trips to the Final Four.
Now coach Mike Krzyewski is on familiar ground again. His topseeded Blue Devils head to the South Regional in St. Petersburg, Fla., with Syracuse, Kentucky and UCLA. All of these teams have

"People aren't flying around saying, 'Hey, we made the Sweet 16. There is not the exuberance as there would be for a team that hasn't done it for a long time or has never done it. In that regard, you have to m..sure sure the kids enjoy it." Krzypzewski said.
He said he sensed pressure following the second-round tournament win against Oklahoma State on Sunday. He said he walked into the locker room and saw no smiles.
"After the game I came in and knew we beat a really good team, probably a team that deserved a little bit higher recognition than they received," Krzyzewski said. "I walked in and said, 'Will you guys smile, we're in the Sweet 16?'
In 1996, Duke got knocked out of the tournament in the first round by Eastern Michigan, then got bumped last year in the second round by Providence. Krzeyzewski is hoping to move back to the Elite 8 round with a win Friday against Syracuse.

The Associated Press
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Alabama coach Rick Moody has been ordered by the NCAA not to talk about the controversial finish in the Crimson Tide's second-round NCAA women's tournament win against UCLA.

"They sent us a bulletin stating that any further comments would have to come from their office," Moody said yesterday during telephone inter-
The clock read 0.8 seconds before the game-winning play, in which two players tipped the ball into the hands of LaToya Caudle, who hit the game-winning shot. Replays show that the play took more than 0.8 seconds.
But once officials Jack Riorand, Robert Strong and Lolly Saenz left the court, there was no way to overturn the result. They will not work any more 1989 tournament games.
The NCAA has admitted that officials erred in not checking the video replay before leaving the court following Alabama's 75-74 victory against UCLA on Sunday.
further comment.
The result put second-seeded Alabama (24-9) into the regional semifinals for a game Saturday against No. 4 seed Louisiana Tech (28-3).
"The only thing I'm allowed to discuss is the game with Louisiana Tech." Moody said. "And that's all I have my mind on."
Still, he fielded a half-dozen questions about the game, its effect on his players and whether they could recover from such an emotional win.
Officials at the NCAA office had no
"As you look through the history of the NCAA tournament, a lot of national champions have had the good fortune of surviving games like the one we had Sunday," Moody said.
