MAN WHO HIT KERRIGAN GETS 11/2-YEAR TERM

PORTLAND, Ore.- The man who whacked Nancy Kerrigan in the knee and his getaway car driver were sentenced Monday to 11/2 years in prison after pleading guilty to their roles in the attack.

Hit man Shane Stant and driver Derrick Smith pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit second-degree assault.

Shawn Eckardt, sometime bodyguard for rival skater Tonya Harding, pleaded guilty to racketeering for helping hatch the plot. His sentencing was postponed until July 11.

All three men had agreed to plead guilty in exchange for 18-month prison terms.
