Anderson beats another ranked team
Anderson saw the return of its starting point guard and shot 53% from the floor to defeat Franklin 74-73 in HCAC action. Franklin is the No. 2 team in the Midwest region and had defeated No. 1 Manchester earlier in the week.

Sophomore point guard Travis Daugherty returned to action for Anderson (15-3, 6-2) after missing the Ravens' last four games with a high ankle sprain. Daugherty came off of the bench and shot 5-for-6 from the field and 3-for-4 from three-point range with four assists. Junior center Chaz Smoot led all scorers with 32 points with eight rebounds. Franklin (also 15-3, 6-2) was led by Jason Sibley's 23 points, six rebounds, six assists and four steals. Junior forward Paul Buening added 13 points.

No. 3 Connecticut College remains unbeaten
Connecticut College, ranked first in the Northeast and No. 3 in the nation, received a strong second-half surge from sophomore guard Kareem Tatum as the Camels held on to defeat Colby, 63-56, Saturday in NESCAC action.

The victory marked the first for Connecticut College in seven trips to Waterville. The win also preserves the Camels' perfect record at 14-0. Colby falls to 10-6.

Colby senior co-captain James Spidle scored 12 of his game-high 18 points in the first half, when the White Mules built a 27-20 lead. However, the Camels finished the half with a 6-0 spurt to pull within one at the break. Tatum hit two free throws and a scoop shot in the lane to cut the Colby lead to 27-26 at intermission.

The Mules came out firing in the second half, when freshman point guard Joe Gutierrez capped an 11-5 run with a three-pointer to give Colby its largest lead of the contest, 38-31. A three-point play and a lay-up by Tatum sparked a 13-0 run for Conn College, which took a 44-38 lead with 13 minutes left. Colby drew to within two points after a pair of Gutierrez foul shots made it 48-46, but the White Mules got no closer as the Camels used solid defense to build a 60-50 lead on their way to the eventual victory.

Tatum finished with 15 points on 6-of-14 shooting, while freshman Rich Futia added 10 points and 10 rebounds for Connecticut College. Gutierrez scored a career-high nine points in just 10 minutes of play for Colby, while junior Ken Allen added 16 points and a team-leading eight rebounds.

CONN COLLEGE (63) : Vaidas Nutautas 0-3-3, Aaron Taylor 1-0-2, Mizan Ayers 3-6-12, Rich Futia 4-2-10, Kareem Tatum 6-3-15, Jason Shea 2-2-6, Zach Smith 0-1-1, Tope Adekanbi 1-0-2, Dwayne Stallings 3-0-8, Chris O'Leary 2-0-4; TOTALS 22-17-63.

Calvin edges Defiance to stay atop MIAA
Aaron Winkle hit a layup with 6.1 seconds left as Calvin held off Defiance in an MIAA contest Saturday 81-79.

Defiance (10-8, 4-4) held a 9-7 lead with 14:43 left in the first half before Calvin (15-3, 7-1) went on a 38-19 run to post a 44-23 lead at the 5:13 mark. On the ropes, the Jackets stepped up to score 14 straight points to go into the locker room trailing 44-37.

In the second half, Calvin led by 10 on three occasions but could not put Defiance away. The Jackets' final charge pulled them to a tie at 79-79 on a Frank Kill free throw with 36 seconds left. Calvin came down the floor and call a timeout with 18.9 ticks left in the contest, setting up Winkle's winning basket on a feed from Jeff Overway. Kill's layup attempt fell short at the buzzer.

Winkle led all scorers with 27 and led the Knights with 12 boards, he and guard Scott Plaisier (with 25) combined for 52 of the Knights' 81 points. The Jackets were led by a pair of juniors in guard Seth Newlove and forward Chad Kahle. Newlove poured in 22 points while grabbing 12 boards, while Kahle chipped in 14 points and 12 rebounds as the Jackets outrebounded the Knights 51-47.

Wheaton Women Upset NE No. 1 Springfield
The Wheaton (Mass.) women won their fourth consecutive game, defeating Springfield, the No. 1-ranked team in the Northeast (No. 10 overall) 56-38.

Using a late first half run that saw Wheaton lead by nine at the half, the Lyons pulled away with six quick second-half points by junior Stacy Auerr. Led by Tracy Howard's 18 points, Wheaton took advantage of Springfield's poor second-half shooting (24% from the floor, 8% from three-point range) performance. The Lyons move to 8-7 overall, 3-0 NEWMAC while Springfield fell to 14-2, 2-1.

Opponents each reach 1,000 points
Two players from opposite sides each reached the 1,000-point plateau for their respective careers. McMurry senior guard Macheic Crawford went into Saturday's game with 995 career points and finished with 17 points, giving her a grand total of 1,012 points. She is just the sixth to reach the 1,000-point pinnacle in the 24-year history of the program.

Hardin-Simmons junior forward Kathryn Otwell needed 16 points to reach the 1,000-point total going into the game and was 5-for-7 from the field and a perfect 6-for-6 from the line, giving her 1,001 career points.

The 64-55 win moved HSU to 15-3 overall and 4-0 in the American Southwest Conference West division, while McMurry fell to 12-7, 2-2 in divisional play.

Mass-Dartmouth asst. returns to Greek pro league
Basketball has taken Stefan Pagios all over the world. Tuesday night, he was sitting along side Mass-Dartmouth basketball coach Brian Baptiste for the Corsairs' Little East Conference game against Rhode Island College. Four nights later, Pagios will be in Fillipos, Greece, playing professional basketball again. After three seasons in Greece, following an outstanding career at Mass-Dartmouth, Pagios returned to the Corsairs as an assistant basketball coach at the beginning of the 1998-99 season. Pagios had decided against returning to Greece for a fourth season and, instead, returned to school and started his coaching career.

But his old team from Filipos put out a call to last year's point guard, asking him to return. Without Pagios, one of the Greek Professional Basketball League's top scorers and three-point shooters last season, Filipos found itself at the bottom of its division during the early part of its season. Unless the team's fortunes improved, the team was looking at a potential demotion into a lower level at the end of the season. After discussing the matter with Baptiste earlier this week, Pagios decided to step down from his assistant coaching position and return to Greece for the remainder of the season.

"He got a call from his old team and they made him a very good offer to return," said Baptiste. "I guess they realized they needed Stefan more than thought at the beginning of the season. It's a great opportunity for him and probably his last chance to play basketball professionally. I wished him all the luck in the world."

A two-time Little East Conference player of the year, Pagios played for four seasons with the Corsairs. He earned three First Team All-Little East Conference all star honors, while leading the Corsairs to four consecutive LEC championships. Following his senior season, Pagios, a resident of Pawtucket, R.I., was selected ECAC Northeast Region Division III Player of the Year and NABC First Team All-North East District, as well as an honorable mention All-American. Another former Corsair player, Mosadi Caldwell, who was serving as a volunteer assistant coach this season, will take over for Pagios for the remainder of the season.

Austin women hand E. Texas Baptist home loss
The Austin College Lady Kangaroos, the number three ranked team in the NCAA South Region, jumped out to a 10-0 and never trailed in the game, as they defeated the East Texas Baptist University Lady Tigers, the 11th-ranked team in NAIA Division I women's basketball, 72-68, in Marshall, Texas on Thursday night.

The Lady Tigers (16-2) battled back to tie Austin College at 61-61 with 3:58 to play on a three-pointer by Kelsey Moss, but the Lady 'Roos (13-4) regained the lead which they never relinquished 18 second later when junior center Rachel McNamara converted a three-point play.

McNamara finished the night with a double-double, 18 points and a game-high 14 rebounds. Senior guard Marisa Hesse, Austin College's all-time leading scorer with 1,671 points, led the Lady Kangaroos in scoring with 22 points. Rounding out the AC scorers in double figures were seniors Natasha Rodgers with 13 points and Kelly Killgo with 11 points.

Plymouth State knocks off Keene State
The Plymouth State men's team handed Keene State its first Little East Conference loss of the season Wednesday night, 87-84, before a crowd of 1,000 at Foley Gymnasium. The Panthers got 18 points from sophomore Tony Martinez and 17 points and eight assists from senior All-American candidate Adam DeChristopher. Senior Eric McQueen added 13 points for Plymouth while senior Jamal Pettiford-Jones contributed 10 points and a game-high 14 rebounds. Keene sophomore Chris Coates led all scorers with 23 points. Senior Jamie Smith and sophomore Fred Fieldhouse each scored 12 points for the Owls. Plymouth, tied for sixth in this week's NCAA Division III Northeast poll, improved to 12-4 overall, 6-2 in the LEC. Keene, ranked second in the Northeast, remains in first place in the conference; The Owls drop to 14-3 overall, 7-1 in the LEC.

The intrastate rivalry matched the coaching wits of Plymouth's Jim Ferry, a 1990 Keene graduate, against Phil Rowe, a 1974 PSC graduate. Rowe is also a former coach of the Panthers (1985-90). Ferry is in his first season at Plymouth. After trailing for most of the first half, Keene took a 47-46 lead into the locker room at the break. Plymouth grabbed a nine-point lead midway through the second half (69-60), but Keene stormed back with a 10-0 run to hold a 70-69 lead with 6:48 remaining. DeChristopher scored nine of his team's 18 points the rest of the way, including a key three-pointer with 26 seconds to go that gave the Panthers a 85-81 advantage. Fieldhouse answered with a three-pointer of his own, but the Owls couldn't get any closer. Todd Steffanides hit a pair of free throws with six seconds left to seal the win for Plymouth.
