10 •to sports March 18,1998 ISCrf ei/on n if miii by Fish Hello fans, and welcome back to the nice little touch-up of the phenomenon known as WCW wrestling. Of course I'm Fish and we have a lot to cover today! In the past 3 weeks, we've seen a gradual rise of tension inside the nWo and especially between Hogan and Savage (the geriatric boy toys as I like to call them). This all culminated at the latest PPV, Un- censored. It was less than lackluster, but had three great matches on the card. In one of them, there was a three-way match between Raven, DDP, and Benoit (the freakin' man!). The match went hardcore with No DQ rules and let's just say that they included everything... including the kitchen sink!!! In the end, DDP Diamond Cut Raven on a Table (that was not pre-cut, WOW!) and got the win to keep the US title. Look for DDP to be on MTV Live this Wednesday to promote the Stuck Mojo video with Raven's Flock and him in it. The second match was Sting vs. Scott Hall. In this match Scott Hall came out with the American Dream, Dusty Rhodes. The match was a good affair and included, one of my all time favorites, the bionic elbow drop from Dusty. In the end, Sting slipped out of the Outsiders edge to put Hall in the Scorpion Death Drop for the win. Sting is still the World Champ! The third and last good match of the night was when Hogan and Savage fought in a steel cage. The match was the match and everything was good until Hogan started to bleed... then Savage sprung a leak too... that was about the only cool thing about this match... so i'll leave it at that. Now on to Nitro, or there's a storm a brewin' and the wind's pickin' up! On Nitro, LIVE from Panama City Beach at Club La Vela, we saw some great entertainment from WCW. In one of my all time favorite spots, we saw Hall and Nash come out and Hall did his survey (everyone was nWo) and then Nash came out and said, "Hey guys, don't be stuck up, the fat girls need lovin' too"... definitely the Line of the Night! Then the Giant came out and Nash provoked him to get in the ring At that moment, Nash got out of the ring with Hall, and Nash said that he was, "King of the Cannonball champions at Spring Break" and proceeded to do a Cannonbal 1 into the pool surrounding the ring. It was a great moment! For the rest of the wrap-up for Nitro. go to <www.ddtdigest.com>. I'm Fish and this was the Wrap-Up! western ■ • • arolinian The Forgotten Tournament 5\ by Daniel Hooker As March Madness has hit in full force, sports fans are bombarded with games from the four regionals. Teams from throughout the nation get national exposure. Yet, where did it all start? Started by the Metropolitan Basketball Writers Association (MIBA) of New York in 1938, the National Invitational Tour nament (NIT) became the only post season national basketball event. It was THE tournament for college basketball. With its roots in New York City, the championship was played in the old Madison Square Garden. It was there until the construction of the new Garden in 1968. The first ever NIT Championship was won by the Temple Owls back as they defeated Colorado 60-36 before 14,497 people. For nearly a decade, the NIT and NCAA Tournaments fought for certain teams. Some teams, including Adolph Rupp's Kentucky squads, took bids to both tournaments. In 1977, the tournament took a different turn. It allowed the home teams drawing the largest attendance to host the games in their respective arenas. This led to the 1979 game that saw the largest NIT crowd ever. It was Clemson against the homestanding Kentucky Wildcats. From Lexington, Kentucky, 23,522 people watched the Clemson Tigers upset the Wildcats in overtime. In recent years, the NIT has lost its glamour. Overshadowed by the NCAA Tournament, an invite to the NIT appears to be a slap in the face. Now, teams that are not chosen for the premier field of 64 but feel they should have been, simply decline the NIT bid. Yet, this season, the talent of teams associated with the NIT have made, and should continue to make it very interesting. For instance, there were 11 teams invited and who accepted bids that had 20 or more wins coming into the tournament. Also, teams like Missouri and Memphis were actually ranked in the top 25 earlier in the year. Other big names which graced the NIT brackets were Georgetown, who lost in overtime to the Yellow Jackets of Georgia Tech, Arizona State, Minnesota, who Western Carolina played earlier in their season, and Marquette. Also, teams like Gonzaga, who beat Clemson earlier this season, Pacific, who beat Gonzaga, both came in with tournament high 23 wins. The field includes three ACC teams; N.C. State, Georgia Tech, and the surprising Wake Forest. Many expected the Demon Deacons to make the field of 64, but were shocked when lower seed Florida State was asked to "dance" rather than the "Old Black NIT and Gold." If things go well for the ACC teams, NC State and Wake Forest could meet up for the third time this season in the Third Round. Wake swept the Wolfpack, winning 68-62 in Raleigh, and finishing out their regular season by routing the Pack 71-57. Wake guard Tony Rutland scored 15 and 28 respectively versus the Wolfpack. Yet, rather than go off pouting, as many teams who don't get to go to a^m^ the NCAA's do, Dave Odom accepted the chance to get his young team some more experience and playing time, looking forward to next season. The first two rounds are now completed. Now, the NIT's version of the "Great Eight" has been set. Georgia Tech of the ACC will take on Big East opponent Penn State, Hawaii of the WAC will try and stop "Tark the Shark's" Fresno State Bulldogs, and Marquette will take on the Golden Gophers of Minnesota. These games will run from Wednesday, March 18 through Thursday, March 20. The semi-finals for the National Invitational Tournament will be Tuesday, March 24 in Madison Square Garden in New York. Likewise, the Championship will be on the same floor two days later, Thursday, March 26.
