It was a see-saw battle the
first 10 minutes of the game
with no team being able to
open up more than a two-
point lead.
The Dogs grabbed an 18-16
lead at 9:52, on two Marbury
free throws and held it until
half.
From there the Dogs built
up a five-point lead at 23-18
with a Wilkins lay-up.
But Temple forward
Terence Stansbury con
verted a three-point play to
pull the Owls back to within
two.
Georgia built up its biggest
lead of the half 29-23 with
5:33 left, but again a Temple
three-point play, this time by
Charles Rayne, cut the
Georgia lead
Marbury led all scorers at
the break with 12. The senior
found his spot on the baseline
hitting five of six shots from
the field.
Marbury cooled off in the
second half scoring only two
points, but reserve guard
Gerald Crosby picked up the
slack. Crosby finished the
game with 14 points.
“Marbury was not as pro
ductive in the second half
because he had 12 in the first
half and I didn't give him a
breather,” Georgia Coach
Hugh Durham said. “Mar
bury is an important player
for us because he gives us
good shooting from the
baseline. His playing in the
first half is what kept us in
theballgame
"I always want to keep the
team's spirits up," Wilkins
said. "Especially Eric’s,
because of the problems he's
been having lately. We can’t
win without him."
match to Miami
Frey 6-3, 6-4 at No. 5 singles
and Brian Levine came back
to beat Georgia’s Peter
Lloyd 7-6, 6-1 in the No. 6
singles match.
Lloyd’s loss was especially
disturbing because of the
way he started the match.
He shot out to a quick 4-0
lead in the first set and then
completely fell apart, win
ning only three more games
in the entire match.
With the Dogs down 3-0,
the crowd turned to the mat
ches on courts two and three
which were heading into
their third sets
Georgia’s Allen Miller
pulled out a win at No. 3
defeating Gary Mallenkradt
6-4, 3-6, 6-4. That victory
lifted the hopes of the
Bulldog fans and it seemed
apparent the match would be
decided in doubles play as
Tom Foster was leading
Miami's Brent Pirow on
court two.
Foster was unable to put
Pirow away, however, and
the Miami freshman pulled
out a 1-6, 6-4, 7-6 (7-1) vic
tory. Foster had four match
points in the third set, but the
junior could not find the
magic which had helped him
win the Southern Inter
collegiate Championship last
fall.
The Hurricanes wrapped
up the match when Craig
Campbell defeated George
Bezecny at No 4 singles 7-6,
4-6,6-2,
The Bulldogs made the
score a little closer by cap
turing two of the three
doubles matches, but that
was little consolation for
Georgia fans and Georgia
Coach Dan Magill. Magill at
tributed the loss to the
outstanding play of Miami
“Miami played us like
fiends,” Magill said. “They
played a peak match today
and they deserved to win. ”
Magill noted that Miami
used a psychological edge to
prepare for the match.
"They were underdogs to
day," Magill said, “but they
knew they were as good as
us. They had everything to
gain and nothing to lose and
they came out here loose.
Our team wasn't really over
confident. We knew that
Miami was capable of
beating us. And they did.”
The Bulldogs will attempt
to rebound from this tough
loss when the Deamon
Deacons from Wake Forest
visit Athens Saturday at 2
p.m. Texas Christain will
bring its No. 12 ranking into
town Sunday at 2 p.m and
the llth-ranked Arkansas
will take on the Dogs also at
2 p.m. Monday. That does
not leave much time for
Georgia to lick its wounds
but, on the brigher side, it
gives the Bulldogs a quick
opportunity to prove
themselves again.

The Miami Hurricanes
blew into Athens Thursday
and before they left,
Georgia’s second-ranked
men’s tennis team had
tasted defeat for the first
time in the 1982 outdoor
season. Miami's 6-3 victory
drops the Bulldogs' outdoor
record to 5-1, but more im
portantly, it gives the Hur
ricanes a decided edge in the
NCAA Region 111 race for a
bid to the outdoor champion
ship.
By winning five of the
singles matches, Miami clin
ched the match before the
doubles competition.

It was quite a bit different
from most home games this
season, Eric Marbury leav
ing a game to cheers rather
than jeers
The senior guard, who has
carried the burden most of
the year for Georgia’s
mediocre 16-11 record,
received a standing ovation
when he left the game Thurs
day night in Georgia's 73-60
win over Temple in the first
round of the National Invita
tion Tournament
“I'd like to feel like this is
home," Marbury said. "I’ve
played here for four years. I
feel like we played hard and
we deserved to win. I’m glad
for the fellas and myself
because we really deserved
it."
Marbury finished the
game with 14 points — 12
coming in the first half. And
he did it by hitting six of 10
from the field
The Dogs will now host the
winner of tonight's
Richmond-Maryland game
in the second round of the
NIT Monday night.
