'Northern Dancer'

Other Wahoos in double
figures were DeWitt with 10
and Scott McCandlish with 12,
McCandlish tied with Duke's
Richie O'Connor for game
rebounding honors and his
scrappy inside game led some
on press row to dub the
Poughkeepsie, NY
fourth-yearman the "Northern
Dancer", another entry, I
guess, in the voluminous file of
Cavalier nicknames.

Farther down the list for
Virginia, guard Tim Rash had
six points, fellow backcourter
Chip Miller five, Al Drummond
four and Bob McCurdy three.
A fifth guard, Steve Morris,
sunk one basket on his first
offensive play. Parkhill was
second to McCandlish in
rebounds with six and led in
assists with three.
