understudy DiBiase during most
of his career but has been an
able replacement.
Another man who w ill be mis
sed next year is Mickey Spar
ano in the 145 pound division.
He won the conference cham
pionship last year and has done
verv well this year.
Coach Patterson stated that the
squad isn't up to par physically
lor Colorado. Louis Caniglia is

ka middle distance ace from
Ord will be counted on to give
the Huskers needed points in
the quarter-mile in the Big
