Alumni edge Bearcats in last-minute upset

Grafton High Bearcats, previously undefeated, lose 62 to 61 to an Alumni team featuring last year’s Big Ten champions. Poor late foul shooting and last-minute turnovers doomed the Bearcats after leading most of the game. Keith Taylor sealed the win with a late free throw.

Michigan Falls to Providence in Double OT Thriller

No. 1 Michigan suffered its first defeat as unranked Providence pulled off an 82-81 win in the Friar Classic final. Bob Misevicious hit the decisive jumper with one second left in the second overtime, while Bruce Campbell and Joe Hassett contributed 25 and 21 points respectively. Providence coach Dave Gavitt called it one of his greatest thrills.

Dramatic finish fuels late season overtimes in college action

Misevicious leads a comeback at the Civic Center as Michigan battles to a double overtime loss while top teams vie for tourney honors. Key games include No. 14 Louisville, No. 8 UCLA, and No. 11 UNLV amid a frenzy of rainbow and old dominion classics.

Trojan quarterback ready for Michigan

USC quarterback Vince Evans reflects on a transformed 1976 season after a rough 1975. He moved from a 31 percent completion rate to 52 percent, credits new coach Paul Hackett for improved reads and technique, and recalls his path from high school single wing to leading the Trojans in a 10-1 campaign with ten touchdowns and five interceptions.
