Pomar said that he had been inconsistent earlier in the year, but he said, "I've been rolling, and tonight, I just came in with an attitude that Fm going to come in and dominate." Coach Ray Tanner said Pomar was "sharp tonight and he located better than he's located before. We hope that he gets back on track a bit and helps us down the stretch."

But if the subject ever drifted to computers, hours of chatter would . likely ensue. A couple of weeks ago, Boeheim let the world know what he thinks of the NCAA's use of computerized "power ratings" to determine the 64 teams in the national tournament. "This power rating crap, you can take it and shove it," Boeheim said. Despite a 19-12 record, Syracuse missed the cut and failed to make it into the field, mainly because the team didn't fare well in the computer's formula.

Not surprisingly, Denver coach Gleorge Gwozdecky has a higher opinion on the ranking system. "Hey, they're just going by the lumbers," Gwozdecky said. "At his point in time, we're looking pretty good." Ifs that kind of mentality that Dahl disagrees. He doesn't like the act that his team's fete lies strictly n numbers in a computer.
