St. Boneaventure, 8.* winner over North Carolina State, and Villanova, 96-73 winner over Niagara, will square off at 2 tomorrow in Carolina Coliseum for the Eastern Regionals Cham pionship. For the Wildcats it will be the dilemma of, stopping 6-11, 275 pound Bob Lanier, nicknamed The Big Cat, and 5-10, 155-pound Bill Kalbaugh at the same time. Lanier carries a 29.5 scoring average around on his size 17 sneakers and he is capable of dominating the backboards against any team in the country. Kalbaugh, on the other hand Lathrop sparks golfers USC's golf team turned back Clemson and Furman Tuesday to open the season with a pair of victories. Hap Lathrop, playing in the number two spot shot a three under-par 69. He was followed closely by number three man Wade Mayo who finished one stroke behind at 70.

"I'm not saying we can beat anyone, but it will be a very good team that beats us,,' Kraft said. CONSOLATION GAME In the consolation game State and Niagara will try to salvage some of their lost pride. State has a balanced team, lead by All Conference forward Van Williford and their overall height and aggressiveness could be too much for the Purple Eagles. The Eagles, on the other hand, have first team All-America Calvin Murphy and Murphy may have a lot of points stored up for tommorrow. He scored only 18 points last night, and he averages 229.7 a game. Niagara does not have a tall team---their tallest man is 6-6 Bob Churdhwell--so the Wolfpack, with 6-9 Paul Coder, 6-6 Williford and 6-66 should have an advantage under the boards. The other Niagara starters are 6-4 Wayne Jones, 6-5 Steve Schafer and 5-10 Mike Brown. VILLANOVA-NIAGARA Villanova dominated both of fensive and defensive boards on the way to a semi-final win against Nigara, outrebounding the smaller Purple Eagles, 61-39. Porter pulled down 18 rebounds himself and Sims and Smith got 14 and 12, respectively. With the boards under control, the Wildcats worked their running game relentlessly and stretched a 46-29 halftime lead to the final 98-73 count, with only a few temporary setbacks in the second half when O'Hanlan picked up his fourth foul. The 'Cats do not have a par ticularly good ballhandler on the bench. Villanova jumped off to an 11-0 lead and Murphy did not score until he hit two free throws with 10:47 left in the half. The score at that point was 22-8 and the Purple Eagles never recovered. Villanova worked the ball well inside all night and Porter slapped down enough attempted shots to qualify for the "meany of the week" award. As for Murphy, he just never got going against the 'Cats, and they held him to his lowest point output in the three years that the teams have been playing each other. He scored 28 or more points in each of the teams's five previous meetings during his career. ST. BONNAVENTURE-STATE While Murphy was having a bad night, the other first team All A merica, Lanier, was living up to :: CAN YOU USE 1 .- From 5.99 per de Fleetway. ~1802 SUMTER STR EET li SI RE COI One grolip Regular *( while I SHIRT Quali quar 143A own his fanfare. Lanier is big enough so that all he had to do to be a problem is stand under the basket and occupy space. State dropped back to a 10-poing deficit midway in the first half before Williford and Leftwich brought the 'Pack back to within four, 33-29. But Calbaugh hit a 25-footer, Greg Gary stole the ball for an easy layup and Lanier hit a gentle turnaround and stretched their lead back to 10, 41-31, before the half ended Lanier finished the night with 24 points and 19 rebounds, but it was Williford who grabbed the in tividual scoring honors. The F&yetteville, N. C. senior, winner of the Everett Case Award as the most valuable player in the ACC Tournament, scored 35 points and got 12 rebounds. Williford had little help. Coder, who seemed to have recovered from the stage fright he suffered during the conference tournament, had 16 points, but Anheuser, Leftwich and Dunning could manage only 17 points among them. The Wolfpack was relatively successful in stopping Lanier in the first half. Coder, Anheuser and Williford surrounded him under the basket, but Kalbaugh hit three push shots while standing somewhere out in Lexington County, and State couldn't contain both of them at the same time. The 'Pack might have made a contest of it in the second half, but thery were forced to give the Bonnies two, three and found shots at the basket as Lanier and Gantt slapped nearly every shot they did't engulf out to Hoffman and Kalbaugh. LaBord Intrami BY JOE GENOVA Sports Writer , LaBorde withstood a thirdt quarter rally by Moore and put together a last quarter spurt of their own to defeat Moore, 81-65. At the start of the second half Moore was down 43-28 but took advantage of a few LaBorde turnovers and the hot shooting of Tom Ruhf and Nat Schell to out score LaBorde 22-14 in the third quarter.
