MAINE DENIES CHARGE
President defends AD over violations
------------------------------------
   Maine's president lashed out yesterday at a former official who accused
the university's athletic director of trying to cover up violations of NCAA
eligibility rules.
   President Frederick Hutchinson accused former NCAA compliance officer
Linwood "Woody" Carville of trying to deflect attention from his role in
allowing five athletes to play without enough classroom hours.
   "There is ample evidence that Woody is looking for someone else to share
the blame," Hutchinson said at a news conference in Orono, Maine.
   Carville, who was fired last week, was quoted in the Maine Sunday Telegram
as saying athletic director Mike Ploszek intentionally wanted to cover up the
NCAA violations.  He also suggested Ploszek may have kept the violations under
wraps if he hadn't pressured the athletic director.

Any opinions as to who's guilty?  Or are both?  We'll probably never know!
