SPORTS BRIEFS AND SCORES
NCAA allegations put Texas Tech in hot seat
LUBBOCK, Texas — Texas Tech probably will self-impose football scholarship limitations in response to multiple allegations of NCAA rules violations, coach Spike Dykes said.
21 scholarships he would normally have available. Chancellor John Montford has
Dykes, speaking after it was announced his coaching contract was extended through 2000, said he expected to use only 15 or 16 of the
agreed to parts of a 57-page outline of alleged NCAA violations released in October. Texas Tech has until Feb. 2 to dispute any of the charges, which resulted from a 11-2 year investigation.
The allegations mainly involve the football and men's basketball programs. Texas Tech already has admitted allowing 76 athletes in eight sports to participate while academically ineligible and exceeding scholarship award limits.
Choosing to punish itself before NCAA sanctions are imposed, Tech announced this month it would not make itself eligible for the Big 12 championship football game or a postseason bowl.
If Texas beats Texas A&M Friday, Texas Tech (6-5, 5-3) would earn the right to represent the conference's South division against Nebraska in the league title game.
Last spring, the Texas Tech men's basketball team removed itself from NCAA tournament consideration after officials discovered that
two players weren't properly academically certified.
Tech isn't expected to get a hearing before the NCAA Committee on Infractions until April. Any sanctions would come in late May or early June.
Lakers look to break record for best start
INGLEWOOD, Calif. — The Miami Heat — and Heat coach Pat Riley — are the next obstacles in the way of the unbeaten Los Angeles Lakers, who need five more wins to set a record for the best start in NBA history.
Even without Shaquille O'Neal, who will be sidelined at least another week with a strained abdominal muscle, the Lakers are confident they can eclipse the record of 15 consecutive victories at the start of a season set by the Washington Capitols in 1948-49 and equaled by the Houston Rockets four years ago.
O'Neal was scheduled to see a specialist yesterday, perhaps to determine whether surgery was necessary. The NBA's second-leading scorer acknowledged that possibility before the Lakers defeated the Los Angeles Clippers 119-102 Sunday night for their 11th straight victory.
Nick Van Exel said after the game, "Do we have to lose? Maybe, maybe not. I'm not looking forward to losing. We want to keep it going. I'm sure everybody's thinking about it the same way. We just want to keep winning."
The Lakers play at Miami (8-4) tonight, at Boston (7-6) tomorrow night and at Philadelphia (3-7) Friday night.
Riley coached the Lakers from early in the 1981-82 season through
the 1989-90 season and guided them to four NBA championships.
They haven't won one since he left.
If the Lakers beat the Heat, Celtics and 76ers, their chances of setting a record appear good, whether O'Neal plays. That's because they faceToronto, which has won only one game, next Sunday night, then play the winless Nuggets at Denver three nights later.
Upset soccer crowd dispersed by police
TEGUCIGALPA, Honduras — Police fired tear gas to disperse a crowd of gun-firing soccer fans infuriated by a referee's decision to halt a game during a tying penalty kick.
The mayhem lasted a half hour and 50 people were treated for inhalation of tear gas.
With the Vida team of La Ceiba leading 1-0, Alejandro Naif of Victoria sent a penalty kick into the goal to score what seemed to be the tying goal as the clock ran on Sunday at Edwards Stadium in La Ceiba, about 115 miles north of the Honduran capital.
But referee Benigno Pineda whistled the game's end as the penalty kick was occurring. Victoria players tried to attack Pineda on the field, and spectators fired gunshots into the air and hurled stones and sticks at cars parked outside the stadium.
NEW YORK — Michael Jordan, who averaged a league-high 37.3 points in three games for the Chicago Bulls, won the NBA Player
Player of the week awarded to Jordan
Jordan also averaged 4.7 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 1.33 steals last week. He shot .500 from the field, making 42 of 84 shots and scored 37.5 percent (112 of 299) of his team's points for the week.

Also nominated for the award were Isaac Austin of Miami, Glen Rice of Charlotte, Brevin Knight of Cleveland, Eddie Jones of Los Angeles, John Starks of New York, Horace Grant of Orlando, Gary Payton of Seattle and Karl Malone of Utah.
