Nebraska's Brian Carr drives in against Marquette defenders for the winning shot. Carr was
fouled on the shot, which went in and iced the game. The Huskers won their first-round NIT
game, 78-76.
Stanford diver
challenges NCAA
By The Associated Press
SAN JOSE, Calif. - A Stanford Uni
versity diver who challenged the NCAA's
drug-testing program for athletes won a
preliminary injunction Wednesday that
allowed her to compete without provid
ing a urine sample.
The ruling by Santa Clara County
Superior Court Judge Peter G. Stone
applies only to Simone LeVant, but it
has broader implications for the thou
sands of athletes across the nation
under the NCAA's virtual control of col
lege sports. LeVant is the first athlete
to challenge the NCAA policy.
Stone agreed with LeVant that the
National Collegiate Athletic Associa
tion's mandatory urine tests are an
obtrusive and unconstitutional inva
sion of privacy.
Stone said there is a "reasonable
probability" the case would win in a
trial court.
LeVant, a 22-year-old senior, will be
able to compete in championship qual
ifying events in Arizona this weekend
and, if successful, go to the NCAA
finals in Indianapolis in two weeks.

Huskers take a lickin',
but they keep on tickin'
By Chuck Green
Sports Editor
Once again, as so many times before
at the Bob Devaney Sports Center, the
final seconds ticked off the game
clock.
Twenty-six. . .25 . . 24. . Nebraska
and Marquette were tied 76-70 in the
first-round game of the National Invita
tion Tournament. Twenty. . .19. . .18.
The Comhuskers, playing in their
fifth-consecutive post-season tourna
ment, brought the ball across the half
court line. Fifteen. . .14. . .13. . .12. The
clock ticked on.
Nebraska had led by six points with
eight minutes left in the game, but
Marquette battled back to tie the game
on a threepoint jump shot by Tony
Smith with 27 seconds left to play.
Ten. . .nine. . .eight. The clock kept
running.
The Huskers passed the ball back
out to the point, then back in
side. . .seven. . .six. . . five. Nebraska's
Brian Carr took a pass from Henry
Buchanan and found a gap in the War
rior defense. Four seconds remained.
Carr jumped and was fouled by Smith,
but managed to get the shot away. As
the ball swished through the net, the
officials' whistles sounded for the foul.
One second remained on the clock.
Nebraska led 78-76 with less than
one second remaining and Carr was at
the free throw line. Nebraska coach
Danny Nee said the plan was for Carr to
miss the free throw intentionally, which
he did.
"We figured as soon as (Marquette)
touched the ball time would expire,"
Nee said, "Brian hit it off the back
board and then the rim and it hit (Tom)
Copa on the leg and by the time he got
ahold of it, the clock had run out."
So had Marquette's chances of
advancing t o the second round of the
NIT. Once again, Nee said, Nebraska
had found a way to win.
"We're not a pretty team, but we
work hard and find a way to win in this
building (the Sports Center)," he said.
Carr gave much of the credit for the
winning shot to Buchanan for a good
assist.
" T (Buchanan) kicked it out to me,
I penetrated the gap and put it up,"
Carr said. "I knew I'd get fouled when I
went up."
4I think this came
down to the big
plays in the final
seconds.'
Dukiet
By then, though, it didn't matter.
The ball bounced off the rim, into the
air and through the hoop. Nee's hopes
for taking a Spring Break trip to New
York City, his hometown, became more
possible.
"I think this game came down to the
big plays in the final seconds," Mar
quette coach Bob Dukiet said. "It came
down to loose rebounds, free rebounds,
foul shots down the stretch and a big
shot with one second left. . . that's
what this game came down to."
What the game came down to the
most for Nebraska is a second-round
game either Monday or Tuesday at a
sight to be named later. Nee is hoping
that site is Lincoln.
. "I think we deserve another," Nee
said.
