Sports brief
Lakers take 2-0 series
lead over Spurs
SAN ANTONIO — Seven
teen-and-oh my! Can anybody
beat these guys?
The Los Angeles Lakers, moti
vated by the ejection of coach
Phil Jackson, outscored the San
Antonio Spurs 13-5 over the fi
nal 6:11 Monday night for an 88
81 victory in Game 2 of the West
ern Conference finals.
The Lakers won their 17th
straight, ninth in the playoffs, in
a rough game that put them up 2
0 in the best-of-seven series.
They won twice at the Alam
odome, where San Antonio had
been unbeaten in the playoffs
and had lost just eight in the reg
ular season.
“I think the turning point was
when Phil got thrown out of the
game,” Lakers center Shaquille
O’Neal said of Jackson getting
two technical fouls in a five
minute span of the third quarter.
“I pulled the guys in the huddle
and told them, ‘Let's go, let's just
play loose.’ They gave us all they
had.”
The Lakers, down by as many
as 14 points in the first half, can
complete an unexpected sweep
by winning the next two at home.
Game 3 is Friday night at the
Staples Center.
Their playoff winning streak is
the longest since 1989 when the
Lakers won 11 in a row before be
ing swept in the finals by Detroit
after Magic Johnson and Byron
Scott were injured.
Can the Spurs come back?
“If we slack off and not do what
we’ve been doing, then yes,”
O'Neal said, “but I don’t see us do
ing that. I see us going home and
taking care of business.”

Pac-10
continued from page 7
UCLA’s most impressive perform
ance came from senior Christina
Tolson, who dominated the ham
mer throw. But then again, she is
the best hammer thrower in the na
tion.
“I just wanted to do what got me
here,” Tolson said Sunday.
What got -bison to the Pac-lOs
was a conference-record throw of
214 feet, six inches. What she threw
Sunday was 214-7, breaking her
own record. Tolson also won the in
dividual title in the shot put.
USC scored its fair share of
points over the weekend. The Tro
jans took individual titles in the
javelin, triple jump, 4x100 relay
and 800. USC also notched second
place showings in the hammer,
shot put, long jump, 800, 200 and
100.
The most notable performances
that didn’t come from the “big two”
teams came from Stanford in the
middle distance races.
In the 1,500, the Cardinal domi
nated and finished with the top
four runners. Senior Sally Glynn
won the event with a personal best
and an NCAA automatic time of
4:16.98, but second-place Lauren
Fleshman said the event was a team
win.
“This says something really great
about Stanford's program,” Flesh
man said. “When you have four
runners totally work together like
that throughout the race, all of us
come out basically as four Pac-10
champions. It says a lot about the
dynamics of our team.”
Glynn also took second in the
5,000. Stanford finished third over
all in the team competition, 33
points behind USC.
Arizona, Washington and Wash
ington State got strong performanc

cats’ Brianna Glenn took individual
titles in the 100 and 200, barely
beating out two-time 100 champion
Angela Williams by .01 seconds in
the 200. She was the first Arizona
sprinter to win a title in either
event.
“It’s always great to win a cham
pionship, especially in a confer
ence at the level of the Pac-10,”
Glenn said.
Washington’s Anna Aoki did it
all for the Huskies over the week
end. The senior won the 10,000 and
took third in the 5,000, scoring 16
of the Huskies’ 33 points.
Washington State carried over its
success in ' last weekend’s hep
tathlon, where it took first and sec
ond, and finished fourth overall.
WSU got strong performances in
the high jump, long jump and both
hurdles events.
The Cougars are one of a few
teams that gained momentum for
the NCAAs from the Pac-lOs. The
Bruins reaffirmed their national
prominence and got one last look at
USC before the NCAAs. The two
powerhouses should square off for
the national championship. Stan
ford will think NCAA top-10 after a
strong showing at Pac-lOs.
