Barkley successfully appeals his suspension By Jim O Connell Associated Press NEW YORK — St. John’s coach Mike Jarvis sees the successful ap peal of Erick Barkley’s three-game suspension as a start for changing the NCAA’s process regarding ath letes. “I’m glad that this means Erick Barkley is going to be able to com pete as the student-athlete he is,” Jarvis said Thursday after the school’s appeal to the Division I Subcommittee on Student-Athlete Reinstatement was upheld. “I’m glad he’s not going to miss any more games and also that this par ticular ending is a new beginning, a commitment from myself and our university and a lot of people in the profession to bring about change in the system that oversees our game. ” The sophomore guard will be back with St. John’s against Vil lanova on Saturday. On Tuesday, Barkley, the team’s leading scorer at 16.9 points per game, was suspended by the NCAA for three games for an undisclosed rules violation. St. John’s appealed that ruling even though he had already served one game — last Saturday’s victory over Boston College—and missed a second that night at Providence, another victory for the Red Storm (15-6). “Erick is obviously very hap py,” Jarvis said. “He appreciates the game more than he did before. He was glad to practice today. Usually it’s a chore. ... You get a sense of how relieved he is be cause he was Concerned about his image and perception. Men’s continued from page 9 league title. The win also gives the Cardinal its sixth straight 20 win season, a new school record. But Oregon did have a few chances. After being down by as many as 15 in the first half, Oregon for ward Bryan Bracey connected on a three-pointer to cut the margin to 37-29 with three seconds left in the half. But just like that, Stanford’s Tony Giovacchini drilled a fade-away buzzer-beat ing three-pointer to push the lead back up to 11 at the break. And then in the second stanza the Cardinal jumped out to a 13 point lead before the Ducks went on a 10-3 run. The run was capped by an Alex Scales steal and fast break two-handed dunk to bring Oregon within 45-39 with 14 minutes, 30 seconds left. But before anybody could blink an eye, Stanford’s Ryan Mendez swished home a three from the corner that kick-started a game-clinching 19-6 run, capped six minutes later with an other Mendez-three. “When we played solid we could play with them, but every time we broke down they made you pay,” Kent said. “And that was often tonight. We made a great run at them in the second half and then mentally we broke down again.” Mendez showed why he is considered the league’s purest shooter by knocking down all three of his three-point attempts en route to a 14-point perform ance. And Madsen — in front of many NBA onlookers such as Chicago’s Jerry Krause — domi nated the inside game with 19 points. He was matched by Stanford’s mature freshman Casey Jacobsen whose 19 came on three three pointers and an array of athletic jumpers. Everybody knew something had to give when Oregon — the Pac-10 leader in field goal shoot ing percentage — went up against the nation’s best field goal percentage defense in Stanford. And it was the Ducks that gave. They were held to just 36 percent from the field, while con necting on only four of 19 three point attempts. The reason Oregon was forced to hang around the perimeter was the Cardinal’s imposing front line. Whenever the Ducks pene trated they were often greeted with a blocked shot by 6-11 Jason Collins, who had four of his team’s eight swats. Although Scales (14) and Smith (11) led Oregon in scoring, it was the play of little-used cen ter Chris Christofferse and guard David Jackson that were the high lights in the loss. Jackson scored a season-high 10 points in 18 minutes, while Christoffersen contributed three blocked shots in his nine minutes of action. “Both Chris and David did a good job,” Kent said. “They in crease our depth. It was encour aging to see them play the way that they did.” Now the Ducks must regroup and prepare for a young Califor nia team on Saturday which has won three straight and five of seven. With a win, the Ducks can come home no worse than third in the Pac-10. “We’re playing a Cal team that is much improved in the area of confidence and continuity,” Kent said. “It’s a huge game for them and we have to be ready to put this game behind us and respond to the challenge.
