By GEORGE HUBER

MafyIandS DaSKetDal team
started defense of its Big Three
basketball title last night by
beating George Washington,
68-48. before about 1000 fans
at Uline Arena.
It was tight game for the
first half and for a few minutes
after intermission, then the
Terrapins moved out as expected
with an edge in all departments,
including shooting percentage.
They were in front by only two
points at halftime. 1923. and
even this little advantage evapo-
rated three times as the Colo
mails came up with ties early in
the second half.
Thereafter. Maryland's shoot
ing skill took command and the
Terps gradually widened the
margin until with 10 minutes
left the score was 1888 and the
outcome was no longer in doubt.
Nacincik Scores FL
John Nacincik, the 6-foot-3
junior who was the star of Mary
lands upset over Duke earlier
last week. again was the big
wheel with 81 points as Mary
land upped it's season record to
seven wins and five losses. Most
of his scores were handed
push shots from the corner
against GW's zone defense.
The Terps also used a zone
defense to slow down GW's fast
break and the Colonials, losing
their seventh straight and their
18th altogether against only one
win. didn't have the ability to
break through it or score over it.
Bill Telasky. 6-foot-2 soph.
was GW'S best scorer with II
points while 6-foot-6 Gene Qua
Irilia, another soph and the
teams leading scorer. added IA.
Tallying behind Nacincik for
the Terrapins were Bob O'Brien
and Nick Davis, both with 10
points. Davis, in fact, was the
star of Maryland's second-half
surge. getting seven of his nine
field goals then on seven tries.
He. like Nacincik, did most Of
his shooting from the corner.

1t was Nacincik. who gave the
Terrapins their 1923 halftime
lead with a bit of ball stealing.
The Colonials were leading, 3D.

seconds left. They were passing
it around waiting for a last
second shot, but as the time
came and they damned through
the middle, Nacincik stole the
ball and dashed down the floor
to make a good layup just as
time ran out. He was fouled
while shooting. and made good
with the free one.
Maryland had started out like

there, however, and with Qua

the Colonials pulled up and
three times took a one-point

Every time, however. Mary

Nacincik getting the important
baskets twice to pull the Terps
in front before he came through
