Charlotte tor
By DAVID CARAVIELLO & STE1
Staff Writers
The USC men's basketball team,
fresh off an impressive 2-1 showing
in the Great Alaska Shootout,
will travel to Charlotte, N.C., this
weekend to face the Atlantic Coast
Conference's version of the Brat
Pack in the first round of the Diet
Pepsi Tournament of Champions.
Waiting to face the Gamecocks
at 9 p.m. Friday is host team North
Carolina and Dean Smith's band of
freshman phenoms, who have
trounced the likes of San Diego
State and Jacksonville to open the
season.
The matchup will renew a storied
rivalry that has been put on
hold for 18 years. Arguably,
USC's biggest win came against
the Tar Heels, a 52-51 victory in
1971 that clinched the ACC
championship.
North Carolina won the last
meeting, a 1972 first-round NCAA
tournament game in Morgantown,
W.V., 92-69 and holds a commanding
54-20 lead in the overall
series.
The current Tar Heel squad is
ranked fourth in the nation, primarily
because of its stockpile of
young talent. Smith has corraled
what might be his best recruiting
class ever to complement a steady
returning class.
Seven-foot center Eric Montross
(20.5 points per game in high
school) heads the list of Tar Heel

sive options most coaches would
drool over. Phelps can spell Rice,
who has trouble running the offense
at times, at the point. Chilfreshmen.
Then there's forwards
Pat Sullivan (26.5), Brian Reese
(24.5) and Clifford Rozier (34.5)
and guard Derrick Phelps (14.5).
Forward George Lynch (8.6
points, 5.4 rebounds per game in
1989-90) returns along with star
ters Pete Chilcutt (9.0, 6.6) at center,
Rick Fox (16.2, 4.6) at forward
and King Rice (9.2, 2.0) at point
guard. Hubert Davis (9.6, 1.8) will
probably start at the other guard
position.
The freshmen give Smith offencutt,
a true power forward forced
to play center last season, can return
to his natural position with
Montross in the lineup. All of the
forwards can score, and Fox and
Lynch can play a strong rebounding
two-guard when needed.
The size could give USC considerable
trouble up front. Aside
from the 7-foot Montross, Chilcutt
is 6-feet-10-inches, Rozier is 6-feet
9-inches, and on the bench Smith
has 6-foot-11-inch Kevin Salvadori
and 7-foot Matt Wenstrom.
If the Gamecocks make it past
UNC, their most likely opponent
in Saturday's tournament championship
will be the University of
Houston Cougars who take on the
Iowa State Cyclones in the opening
game of the tourney on Friday
night at 7 p.m. Ranked 17th nationally
in many preseason polls,
