cerned the eligibility of commu ity-college transfers, making it tougher for them to qualify under USD's strict aca- demic requirements. So program that was top-heavy with upperclass- men suddenly became bo1 tom-heavy with teen-agers. One of the team's two seniors is Danny Means, who moves back to • off-guard after a season at the point. He has seen both sides of the coin, as the young guy on an experienced team and now as the veteran on an inexperienced team. He, too, doesn't dispute the dour prognostications. "I wouldn't put us any higher after our season last year," said Means, the only returning starter on a team with eight returnees. "On paper, we don't look very good. But I think we will surprise some people. Our team is more together this year. I thmk a lot of the problem last year was that we weren't a unit. We are now."

that's where I'd put us," said Egan, whose Toreros (11-17, 3-11) finished seventh. 'But it means absolutely nothing. I don't believe in the stuff. If (polls) were true, why would you even play the games?" Good point, especially when it come& lo USD and the '88-89 season. Egan has as young a team as last season - the 15-man roster lists seven freshmen and five sophomores Yet Egan seems to be smiling more since practice began Oct. 15, He has seen his freshmen play. Afld he has learned of two freshmen- to-be. "This is the last year for the ex- cuses - I really mean it," Egan told the conference's media. "We have some good freshmen, and we have got two commitments that we can't mention yet who will fill the big-man needs for the future."

For the time being, Egan must make due with what's left from last season and his seven freshmen. Which isn't so bad. Thre freshmen - 6-5 point guard Gaylan Dottin (Santa Ana's Saddleback High), guard Wayman Strickland (San Francisco's Riordon High) and forward Kelvin Woods (Laverne's Damien High) - are considered "impact" players by Egan. •·r think you're going to see a team at the University of San Diego that's a httle more athletic than ones in the past," Egan said. "Give us time and I think we're gomg to be a pretty good program again." It was only two seasons ago the Toreros finished 24-6 overall and 13-1 in the WCAC before losing a heart• breaker to Auburn in the first round of the NCAA Tournament.

LOS ANGELES - One of the na- tion's top defensive or lop offensive teams will win the West Coast Ath- letic Conference basketball title this season. It depends on whom you poll. Ask the media in the league cities, and St. Mary's, which held opponents to an average of 58.6 points last sea- son, will win only its second title in the WCAC's 36-year history. Ask the national media, and Loyola Marym- ount, which averaged a Division I- leading 110.3 points, will repeat as champion. Ask anyone, and USD will finish, well, not exactly at the top. The WCAC writers' poll released at yes- terday's media day here plat'ed the Toreros seventh in the eight-team conference. Most national publica- tions have the Toreros seventh. too, J except Dick Vita/e's Basketball and Playboy, which rank them sixth and

The reporrer wanted to know if I was a victim of sexual harassment while in the employ of the congressman. To date I haven't seen or heard one wo rd of my interview in the media.

It's true the congressman has a good wit, but none of the humor of that office was any different than that of other offices where 1 have worked or had associations. I can't conceive of anyone taking offense to any statement the con- gressma_n might have made. Ir was a nice place lo work, with a lot of comradery and good- natured humor, but nothing in bad taste. 1 find II hard to believe that anyone would give credence to the complainrs of a former staff member, now in the employ of a Republican congressman who ~.uddenly and mysteriously confesses all," eighr momhs a_fter these so-called terrihle in- cidents took place.
