TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) - There is " ·sentimental favorite lurking in tonight's Mid-American Conference championship game. )n one corner is Miami of Ohio, making its third straight appearance in the championship game and its eighth in the tournament 's 20 years. In the other is Kent. In 47 years in the MAC, the Golden Flashes have never won a division. conference or to\irnament title. . The Flashes advanced to the final wiih a humdrum defense-powered wio over Ohio, ·68-57. The earlier game Tuesday night had all the glitter and dazzle as Miami staved off elimination several times with ' Damon Frierson making all the big plays in a heart:stopping 60-56 overtime victory over Bowling Green. Both Kent and Miami are 22-6, but that's where the similarities end. Just last week they met in the regu- Jar-season finale, with a share of the MAC title on the line. Miami won 73-60 and Kent hasn' t forgotten . " We want this championship," Kent coach Gary Waters said. "We lost it at their place, but now we get a reprieve." · Histgry won't be on ·Kent's side. .The tournament champi~n receives an automatic berth in the field of 64. Kent has never participated in an NCAA tournament. This will be the Flashes' fourth rrip to the title game, losing in 1984, 1987 and 1989 - by a total of five points. In the first semifinal, Frierson took over with MAC player of the year Wally Szczerbiak handcuffed by fouls . Frierson scored 13 of Miami's last 2 1 points, including five of their eight points in overtime. It was his IS-foot jumper with 47 seconds left' that gave the RedHawks the lead for good. " I was just rrytng to get it up there," Frierson said. "The shot clock was running down and I knew if I missed it one of our inside players would . get the rebound becau~ they had been doing a good job all night. I was lucky. I was fortunate it went in." Szczerbiak was held to a seasonlow 16 points before fouling out with I : 17 left in overtime. " Frierson was terrific," Bowling Green coach Dan. Dakich said. "He kept them afloat at key points, partieularly when Szczerbiak went out and toward the end of the game." Frierson, who finished with 22 points, also took a c'harging foul from Bowling Green 's Dave Esterkamp with five seconds left that sealed the outcome. · It was just one of those games, Miami coach Charlie Coles said, "'The ball kind of bounced our way t~night," he said. " You . know how it is in sports - sometimes you're lucky. But they never· give you back the unlucky ones, so we'll take the lucky ones." John Estick added 15 points and 12 rebounds for the RedHawks.. · Anthony Stacey, who forced the overtime with a driving layup with two seconds left, l~d Bowling Green (18- IO)with20points. In the nightcap; Waters said his players were upset when they saw that Ohio was favored i1,1 the game; even though Kent had won both earlier meetings and finished second in the conference. "The kids heard they were a twopoint · underdog and got angry, " Waters said. "They said, •All we did all year doesn't mean anything?"' John Wborton scored 14 points, Ed Norvell had II and Kyrem · Massey had eight points and nine rebounds for Kent, but it was defense /tie that spell'ed difference.

" ' And that's the deal. The younger Rose, a 29-year-old whose only · major league experience was a brief spell with Cincinnati Reds 18 months ago, signed a minor league · contrittt with an invitation to spring training . · And here he is, giving it hi s best shot. · "Nobody can tell me to stop chasing my dream," he said. " He knows how to play, he's not going to give up ." the elder Rose said. "He's just now figuring out his m.o." Rose referred to the change his son went through between the 1996 and 1997 seasons. Essentially, Pete Jr., went from a clone of his father to a power hitter, bulking up in the gym from 200 pounds to around 230. "I'm bigger than .he is ," the younger Rose said. " It took me longer to figure things out. I had to make a change, and I did. Basically, I've been at this for only a few years. " He recently spent a week with his father. and it helped as he entered spring training . "It's a plus when you have the hit-king on your side," .he said. " He 's just unbelievable, a great person, a great dad, a great coach.'' · And, obviously, a big fan of his son. The younger Rose had hi s best season by far in 1997. hitting .308 with 25 homers and 98 RB!s. in 112 games for Double-A Chattanooga. He was called up by the Reds and made his only big-league start o~ Labor Day, going 1-for-3. The crowd in Cincinnati, where Rose's father played most of his career and later managed, was 31,920. The majority of those tickets . were sold after it was announced Rose was playing. "The Reds didn ' t give him a chance," dad said . "They used him to make some money. I know it wasn' t (owner) Marge (Schott). Marge likes Pete. If nothing else, he paid to go to spring 'training the next year."
