Mike Mitchell (44), Leo Walker (3) and Brian Salon* (34), scramble for a loose ban.
PCAA basketball forecast
The Pacific Coast Athletic Association
has been rated by some observers to be the
top basketball conference in the west.
After last year's rebuilding season, the
PCAA may be ready to become the best-
in-the-west. One major stumbling block,
is the Pacific 10 Conference.
Against West Coast competition, the
PCAA is 16-7, excluding the PAC-10.
Against the PAC-10. the PCAA is 2-4.
The University of Nevada. Las Vegas
once again is the team likely to lead the
way. But there is no reason to count out
San Jose State, Fresno State, UC-lrvine,
or even UC-Santa Barbara. Jerry Tarkan-
ian's squad is by far the most talented in
the PCAA. Fred Banks, Eldridge Hud¬
son, Armon Gilliam, Anthony Jones and
Richard Robinson lead the way for the.
Runnin' Rebels. Off the bench, Tark the
Shark's attach continues with John Flow¬
ers. Gary Graham, Mark Wade and John
Welch.
Prediction: 25-5 overall, 15-3 in PCAA,
Bill Berry, the head coach at San Jose
State must really be happy right now.
Even though he lost a Stony, he gained a
son. Stony Evans, the Spartans standout
forward from last season, transferred to
New Mexico. But Berry's son is ready to
play for dad.
Ricky Berry transferred from Oregon
State to play for the Spartans. Berry has
the physical capabilities of an Earvin
"Magic" Johnson.
, Other returnees to Coach Berry's lineup
include Reggie Owens, a 6-6 rebounding
phenomenon, who averaged 12poinisand
eight rebounds per game last year. Another
fine returnee is Wade Farris. Farris is a 6-1
guard with a good outside shooting tough.
He and Ricky Berry will run the Spartan
attack. Others who will make their pres¬
ence felt are Ontario Johnson and George
Puou. The two combined for 13 points
and six rebounds per game.
Prediction: 21-6 overall, 14-4in PCAA,
2nd place.
Fresno State has a major find in fresh¬
man guard Mike Mitchell. Jos Kuipers is
a center with a soft touch from three-point
range, who along with Mitchell gives the
Bulldogs a solid outside attack. Fresno
State is going to need strong board play
from Fred Emerson and Brian Salpne, if
they are going to stay in the race with San
Jose State and UNLV.
Prediction: 21-8 overall, 13-5 in PCAA,
3rd place.
Irvine will make a run at the top three
also. Bill Mulligan's troops are led by two
great forwards in Todd Murphy and
Johnny Rogers. Together, the two com¬
bined for 39 points and 17 rebounds per
game for the Anteaters a season ago. Troy
Cannon added to the Irvine front line
attack with II points and 5.5 rebounds per
game.
The big question for ihe Anleaters is
their backcourt. JoJo Buchanan, a transfer
from Notre Dame, looks like he will be the
man to run the Irvine game plan.
Prediction: 18-9 overall, 12-6 in PCAA,
4th place.
In the battle for fifth, it should be UC-
Santa Barbara. The Gauchos even have
the depth to make a run at the upper
eschelon teams this season.
Led by Conner Henry, Khris Fortson,
Scott" Fisher and Mauryc Carr, all who
averaged in double figures last season, the
Gauchos will probably beat anybody who
plays them at their sandbox-sized gymna¬
sium in Goleta.
Prediction: 18-11 overall, 10-8 in PCAA.

troubles with teams that can play defense.
Coach George McQuarn will depend
heavily on senior point guard Kevin
Henderson, (17.3 ppg and 4 asp) as well as
forward Kerry Boagni (11.9 ppg).
Without any other solid returnees, the
Titans will probably not make a run for
Prediction: 16-14overalL8-10inPCAA,
6th place. Utah State, like Fullerton is not
known for its defense. Even worse, the
Aggies return only one name player in
Greg Grant. Utah State only has four
players returning from last season's 17-11
team and among them Grant's 20 ppg is
responsible for about 80 percent of iu
scoring statistics.
Prediction: 10-16 overall, 6-10 in the
PCAA. 7th place.
Pacific is the best of the worst. Actually,
though, the Tigers return a great deal of
depth but only two seniors.
Pacific is going to need serious contri¬
butions from seniors Rich Anema who
redshirted last season and Drew Rodgers.
Rodgers contributed 10.4 ppg off the
bench last season for the Tigers.
Brent Counts, Kyle Pepple and Dom¬
ingo Rosa rio (14 ppg last year) round out
a team that may, with a little luck, have
the potential to be as high as sixth with
Prediction: 10-18 overall,6-12 in PCAA,
8th.
New Mexico Stale will depend highly
on Gilbert Wilbtirn (23.6 ppg). The Aggies
are going to need help from Elston Jones
and Alonzo Ferbes. both double figure
scorers, if they are going to compete for
higher honors than ninth place in the con¬
ference. Kenny Travis, the former Fresno
City College star, impressing Coach Neil
McCarthy, who has an unenviable first-
year task fresh from a winning program at
Weber State. NMSU does have talent,
though.
Prediction: 6-21 rjverall, 3-15 in PCAA,
9th place.
Rebuilding. Yes, well that word always
pops up when you talk about Long Beach
State.
To shojw how the 49 people feel about
their team, the cover of the Long Beach
State media guide shows its top players

Prediction: 4-23 overall. 2-16 in PCAA,
