Sports Writer
The Bulldog men's basketball team
picked up where it left off in wirming its
fourth Sun Met Classic title during the
weekend.
CSUF is coming off its second straight
national defense championship and Fres¬

round to the tun* of 67-60, but it took
some hustling play by Loyola to make it
close. The Vandals led by 20 at 58-38 with-
just more than seven mintues left.
In the consolation meeting, Loyola beat
Hardin-Simmons, 77-61.
"This (Idaho) is probably the best team
we have ever played in the Sun Met,"
Bulldog coach Boyd Grant said. "They
know how to take things away from you
and make you play defense."
Idaho certainly took some offense away
from Fresno. A hustling matchup zone,
similar to the one Grant has installed at
CSUF, made the Bulldogs a little tentative
on offense and kept Fresno away from the
inside lanes through most of the contest.
Only Bernard Thompson, when he was
not in foul trouble, and a rejuvenated Desi
Barmore were able to penetrate under¬
neath consistently. But four personal
fouls, three of which came quickly in the
second half, kept Thompson off the floor
Grant sent Cleave.Lewnk, who looked
good in Fresno's win over Hardin-Sim¬
mons Friday night, into the ballgame and
Idaho exploited the slight height differ¬
ence. With Thompson out, Mitch Arnold
moved from guard to forward so Lewis
could play his mote natural guard spot.
Thompson stands 6-feet-6 -f/2 while Ar¬
nold is &4.
During the span, Idaho erased a 25-20
deficit and took a 30-29 lead with four
minutes to play.
The Idaho zone, spurred by guard
Brian KeHerman, forced the BuBdogs into
taking the long shot, a shot which did not
fall any consistency.
"It was a tough zone to break," Grant
said. It took a lot away from us."
The Vandals, rated in or near most
every top 20 preseason poll, were 27-3

"We're really tentative," Grant said.
'Most teams I've had here struggled with

offense early, becau

Grant indicated the Bulldogs, a young
er team this season, was not awed by
Idaho's reputation.
"The only was those kids are going to
learn is when they make mistakes," Grant
said. "They played hard. I hope the expe
rience of playing Idaho helps."

Fresno city council
passes Selland project
Despite a projected $13.2 million bud¬
get deficit for the 1982-83 fiscal year, the
Fresno City Council last week approved
an $8 million expansion plan for Selland
The expansion was approved by a 4-3
vote of the council and would increase
basketball seating some 3,800 to nearly
10,300. Total searing capacity will be de¬
termined upon completion of working
drawings by the architect.
The "new" seating will include expan¬
sion of the chair seats on the north end of
the arena to form a horseshoe of chair
seating. Bench seats are slotted to be
installed at the south end of the arena.
Selland Arena currently holds 6,530 for
basketball games: Approximately 480 of
the new seats will be set aside for student
seating. Students currently hold 831
seats, approximately 12 percent of the
arena. The ratio of student seats in the
expanded arena would remain the same,
according to John Levenda, a CSUF
athletic ticket manager.
The 4-3 vote was no different than a
Nov. 2 vote on the subject by the council,
or were the protests over the funding of
the arena expansion during a time of
budget deficits any different.
The city is currently facing a $5.3 mii
lion deficit in its current $70 million bud¬
get. A $13.2 million deficit is projected for
the 1982-83 fiscal year.
"As soon as this council puts together a
package to solve the deficit then we can
provide funds for the expansion," Mayor
Dan Whitehurst said.

LAS VEGAS - The CSUF women's
basketball team ran into a taD and tal¬

The loss was the first for the Lady Bul¬
ldogs after they had opened the season
with three consecutive wins.
"We felt we played a good first half, but

Idaho were a guard and center. Loyola-
Marymount forwards Johnny Brown and
Forrest McKenzie were also named.
Barmore had a fine game against Idaho.
The Bulldog center scored 10 points and
blocked two shots. Barmore played a key
role in Fresno's defense.
"The game had a lot of emotion — we
were going to give everything we had to

, Arnold, probably the most improved of
the returning CSUF players, moved be¬
tween the guard and forward positions in
the tournament. His seven steals and
eight asssists in the two games compli¬

"Coach Litz got me shooting the way I
should be," Arnold said, referring to
CSUF assistant Fred Litzenberger. "I've

tive against Idaho. He hit on one of five
shots from the field and pulled down one
rebound.
His mate hup with Kellerman was one of
the more interesting ones of the tourney.
Both played all 40 minutes Saturday, but
Kellerman won the battle. He scored six
points to Arnold's two.
But the two waged a furious defensive
confrontation, both using a similar hard-

defense around for 43 points between
them. McKenzie was the Sun Met's lead¬
ing scorer, padding that with 26 points
against Hardin-Srmmdns.
