Tennessee women on mission to win third NCAA title
The Associated Press
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Want to know how well the Tennessee Lady Vols are playing? Don't look at their ranking (No. 1), record (21-0) or average margin of victory (31 points).
Take a look at the bench.
Chamique Holdscraw, probably the nation's best college player and the team's leading scorer, likes to spend her breaks sitting in coach Pat Summitt's seat between assistant coaches Mickie DeMoss and Holly Warlick.
She says she likes to talk to DeMoss and Warlick. "They're really funny," Holdswclaw says.
If the Lady Vols are playing poorly.
Summit doesn't want any chuckles and orders Holdscw out of her chair. But the defending national champions, energized by four freshen, are playing so well that only once this season has Summit told Holdscw to beat it.
"In the Georgia game, she got mad at me for something," Holdsclaw said. "I came and sat in her seat. She was stooping on the floor and said 'No, you're not sitting there.'"
Holdsclaw was back in Summitt's seat again Sunday when the Lady Vols routed No. 6 Vanderbilt 86-54.
They have been No. 1 all season. They are 9-0 against ranked teams, and their margin of victory is greater than any of the Lady Vols' five national championship squads. Their closest game was a 10-point victory against No. 8 Illinois.
Tennessee, which has four starters 6-foot-1 or taller, is being compared with the 1995 Connecticut team that went undefeated and Southern California's 1982-83 national championship teams with Pam and Paula McGee.
Summitt will say only that this team
could be as good as her 1989 national champions, who went 35-2. She does acknowledge this year's squad is fun to watch.
"If I wasn't on the bench, I'd be in the stands," she said. "I'd pay money to see these kids play. They're exciting. You don't really find a group like this that play so well together."
What has made Tennessee so intimidating are four freshmen who account for half the team's points.
The team is on a mission toward winning three straight NCAA titles — something no team has ever done.
Tamika Catchings starts and averages 18 points. Semeka Randall (15.5 points) and guard Kristen "Ace" Clement (6.2 points) bring a spark off the bench, while 6-foot-3 Teresa Geter (6.9 points, 5.1 rebounds) has worked her way into the starting rotation.
The Lady Vols had a jetdown in Sunday's first half against Vanderbilt but opened the second half with a 20-0 run in which they turned up the speed, the emotion and the volume of the 19,208 fans.
Golf tourney links Tiger and dad
The Associated Press
Twice in Tiger Woods' 17-month pro career the cold shadow of death sent shivers across his dreams. Twice it seemed as if Earl Woods — the man who made the Tiger — would die before seeing his son achieve golfing greatness.
But not only did Earl Woods live to see his son win the Masters in a manner that pushed golf from the sports pages to the front pages, this week he will play with Tiger in a pro tournament for the first time — the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am.
So many times with Tiger Woods there seems to be something magical going on—the way he won at Pumpkin Ridge, the way he won at Augusta. This is another one of those times.
Playing together at Pebble was something that a year ago neither of them thought would happen. Just when Tiger was about to fulfill the 20-year destiny Earl had mapped for him, it looked as if Earl might die.
The first shudder of fear came on an October night in Tulsa, Okla., in 1996
when Earl was rushed from a hotel room shortly before 3 a.m. gasping for breath.
Heart attack,
although no one
would admit it at the
time.
The following morning, playing on just a few hours of sleep in the second round of the Tour Championship, Tiger Woods had the worst round of his brief pro career.
Woods: He and his dad share golfing fears and triumphs
"I didn't want to be here today," Woods said at the time. "I love my dad to death. I just want to go see him."
That choice of words captured the intense emotion between father and son, a relationship forged by those early golf lessons in a California garage when Tiger was barely a toddler.
What might have captured the bond between the two even more that day was the fact that Tiger Woods never considered withdrawing from the tournament.
The closer brush with death came nearly a year ago when Earl Woods had quadruple heart bypass surgery. The operation went well, but several weeks later complications almost killed him.
Last year, Tiger Woods played in the Pebble Beach tournament with film star Kevin Costner in a pairing that had more of a rock-concert frenzy to it than the feel of a golf tournament.
"Mark O'Meara won with his dad a few years ago and told me it was probably the biggest thrill he's ever had." Woods said after coming from eight strokes back on Sunday to win in Thailand.
This year, Tiger's pairing will have the sentiment that can exist only between father and son.
"If I can do the same it would be pretty special," Woods said. "When I was 13, my dad was a 1-handicapper, but he had heart surgery last year and now plays off 12."
And is Earl Woods a proud Pop?
"He's touched people in a way that is unbelievable." Earl Woods said last fall about his son. "That little crumb snatcher of mine did so much in the last year he was the tail wagging the dog."
Penguins' rising star skates into sweet deal
PITTSBURGH — Jaromir Jagr always wanted to play like Mario Lemieux. Now he'll be paid like him.
Jagr, the Pittsburgh Penguins' brightest star now that Lemieux has retired, agreed yesterday to a four-year contract extension worth $38 million that will make him the National Hockey League's highest-paid player.
The Associated Press
The total value of what now becomes a six-year contract is $48 million. Jagr will make $5.1 million this season and $4.75 million next season under his old contract before his salary climbs to $9.5 million in the 1999-2000 season.
The NHL scoring leader would become the league's first $10-million-a-year player when he makes $10.4 million in 2003-04, though another player probably will have eclipsed that figure by then.
The NHL's top contracts belong to Philadelphia's Eric Lindros and Anaheim's Paul Kariya, who will make $8.5
million each next season. Both could be making $10 million each even before Jagr's extension kicks in.
"You never know where the dollars are going to go," said Jagr, who was joined at a short news conference by his mother and girlfriend. "But I want to play here, and I want to stay here. I want to finish my career here."
One reason why the Penguins didn't want to rework the remaining two years of Jagr's contract was the deferred money owed Lemieux, who made $11 million last year and reportedly is making $8 million this season.
Jagr's deal surpasses the $42 million, seven-year deal reached by Lemieux in October 1992. However, that contract was reworked several times before Lemieux retired last spring, and the Penguins still owe him money.
The two sides were close to agreeing to a $53 million, seven-year contract last month before Jagr, after seeing how much Kariya and Lindros will make, decided he wanted a shorter contract.
New high-tech drug test to be used at Olympics
The Associated Press
Performance-enhancing drugs aren't used only by runners, swimmers, weightlifters and other summer sports athletes.
Doping also is prevalent in winter sports such as cross-country skiing, speedskating, biathlon and bobsledding.
For that reason, new high-tech equipment will be used to catch drug users at the Winter Olympics in Nagano, Japan.
There have been only four positive tests ever recorded at the Winter Olympics — two at Innsbruck in 1976, one in Sarajevo in 1984 and one in Calgary in 1988. The last two winter games, 1992 Albertville and 1994 Lillehammer passed without any drug cases.
In the game of cat and mouse between testers and cheaters, competitors have found ways to beat the system by timing their dosages to avoid testing positive, using masking agents and taking drugs that can't be detected.
That doesn't necessarily mean that all ath leses were clean.
But getting away with it could be more difficult in Nagano, where some 800 athletes — including all medal winners — will undergo doing controls during the Feb. 7-22 games.
For the first time at the winter games, the doping lab will be equipped with high resolution mass spectrometers. Experts say these $500,000, state-of-the-art machines can detect minuscule amounts of drugs in the system, including substances taken months earlier.
Spectrometers first were used during the 1996 Atlanta Summer Olympics. The machines recorded five positive tests, but the results were thrown out for technical reasons.
