His decision to go to Japan dis- appointed Brovelli, but Capener said that he'll probably be a better ball- player due to the experience. "I don't know how much ofan asset my travels were," he explained, "but I don't have any fear or worry about fail- ing or not being accepted. I think that it'll help my concentration and I'll be able to put forth an all-out effort." As a 21-year-old sophomore, Capener will have other advantages on his con- temporaries. "I'm only a sophomore, but I'm more mature and stronger than I would have been two years ago," he figured. "I'm also more mentally tough, which is very important in basketball."

SAN DIEGO-Don Capener has been a giant among men twice in the recent past. In 1978, he led a darkhorse Torrey Pines High School basketball team to the CIF championship. Then, after his freshman year at college, he trans- ported his 6-6 frame to Japan, where he tended to stand out in a crowd for a different reason. Now, Capener is just another one of the guys on the University of San Diego basketball team. He's gone from athle- tic and ethnic notoriety to relative obscurity as a part time player for the Toreros. But the sophomore forward from Del
