Irish rookie sinks 4 free throws, UCLA Associated Press Last year at this time, John Paxson was playing basketball for Bishop Alter High School in Kettering, Ohio, with his college future still up in the air. Tuesday night, he was the center of attention in a red-hot Notre Dame-UCLA game with the outcome hinging on his free-throw shooting. "I never thought I'd be in there at the end of a close game," said the wide-eyed freshman.

He never thought he'd be delivering the winning points in the last five seconds, either, as the fourth-ranked Fighting Irish defeated the seventh-ranked Bruins, 77-74, at South Bend. "I don't even remember what I was thinking about," said Paxson, whose older brother, Jim, starred for the University of Dayton last season. "I just went up there with the idea of making them. When I released the shots, they felt good." With UCLA leading 74-73, the 6-foot-2 Paxson was fouled as he took a desperation shot with five seconds remaining. "Somebody had to," Paxson said of his shot.

"I was just fortunate to get fouled." Paxson sank the go-ahead free throws, then stole a UCLA pass and was fouled intentionally. He hit the clinching foul shots with two seconds to go as Notre Dame defeated UCLA for the sixth time in their last eight meetings. THE OTHER TOP TEN TEAMS in the state of Indiana didn't do too badly, either, as top-ranked Indiana defeated No. 16 Georgetown, 76-69, and No. 9 Purdue stopped Nebraska, 78-56.

Senior Mike Woodson scored 23 points and freshman Isiah Thomas added 19 to highlight Indiana's victory. Thomas, a 6-foot-3 guard, scored 10 of his points in the final five minutes, including six key free throws in bonus situations. The victory was Indiana's fourth in as many starts. Georgetown, led by Craig Shelton's 23 points, suffered its first loss after three victories. "Thomas adds a new dimension (to Indiana) with a quick guard," said Georgetown coach John Thompson.

"I think they (the Hoyas) worked very hard, and they haven't done that in the past." Guard Keith Edmonson and center Joe Barry Carroll made key baskets at the start of the second half to trigger Purdue over previously unbeaten Nebraska. Purdue, now 5-0, led only 33-31 at halftime before going on a 14-2 tear for a 47-33 advantage that sent the Cornhuskers down to their first defeat in five games. Edmonson scored six points and Carroll four in the Boilermaker spurt. Moe Iba, Nebraska's interim coach while coach Joe Cipri-ano is recuperating from surgery, said Purdue is "15 points better than they were a year ago. They have more weapons this year.

Edmonson is good at posting a small defensive guard near the basket. When we sagged the defense to stop Carroll, they were able to take advantage of it this year." ELSEWHERE, SECOND-RANKED DUKE whipped Penn, 70-57, as Mike Gminski scored 27 points. The contest was the nightcap of a doubleh'eader at Philadelphia's Palestra. In the opener, LaSalle overwhelmed Rider, 102-59, behind Michael Brooks' 33 points. Bernard Rencher led five players in double figures with 19 points as 15th-ranked St.

John's hammered Columbia, 91-75. Ronnie Lester had 23 points and Kevin Boyle added 20 to lead 17th-ranked Iowa to an 81-62 victory over Wichita State. Danny Ainge poured in 22 points and Alan Taylor had 16 points and 15 rebounds to lead 18th-ranked Brigham Young to an 80-64 victory over Cal State-Fullerton. BYU Coach Frank Arnold said Cal State-Fullerton appeared tired, pointing out that it was their third road game in five days. "When you go out on the road as long as they've been, you can't help but get tired," he said.

Arnold was pleased with his team's zone defense, rebounding and full-court press. "We used the press on them and dropped back to the zone. They don't have good outside shooters," he said. Kenneth Green grabbed 18 rebounds to lead Pan American past Lamar, 70-65; Keith Parham scored 21 points to lead Temple over Lehigh, 81-64; Baylor whipped McMurry, 83-69, as Terry Teagle and Mike Battle combined for 54 points; Mike Evelti's 23 points triggered Vermont past Dartmouth, 89-68; Colgate edged Cornell, 70-68, as Mike Ferrara scored 47 points; Corny Thompson scored 14 points and grabbed 12 rebounds to pace Connecticut over Fairfield, 66-57; Kelvin Troy's 19 points led Rutgers past Massachusetts, 84-68; Texas-El Paso held off New Mexico State, 68-59, as Terry White scored 16 points and San Francisco stopped lona, 76-66, behind Guy Williams' 20 points.
