Look 10 Tourney

American University's courtmen

Dixon Conference this season, fin
ishing AZ games ahead of the
second-place Washington College

Baltimore they've got to prove their
right to the crown all over again in
the annual tournament.
Gallaudet, the Districts second
entry, didn't do as well, landing in
seventh place, game and a half
behind Loyola, which will be host to
the conference this week. But the
Blues count themselves as much in
the running as A. u, for the title
round has proved fertile ground for
upsets. Two years ago Gallaudet
eliminated it's most disastrous sea-
son by coping the tourney and
placing all five regulars on the
Associated Press all-tourney team
Last year the crown went to another
outsider, Mount st. Mary's, which
will not defend its laurels.
American has drawn Randolph
Macon in the first round Thursday
at 7:50 pm. Gallaudet will meet
Johns Hopkins in the nightcap
Remaining games pair Bridgewater
which finished third, against fifth
place Johns Hopkins, and Loyola
with Washington College. The lat
ter, by the way, handed American
its lone defeat in 13 games in the
Eagles last game of the season.
