That late season rampage
by Chuck Gardner not only
let him sneak up and pass the
field to win the Big Eight,
Conference s scoring title, but
it also let him plant the claim
of having the best over-all
performance since records in
the four individual categories
have been kept for Conference
games.
The Colorado senior red
head not only edged Kansas'
Walter Wesley and Missouri's
Ron Coleman for the scoring
top, but he also finished second
in rebounding, second in field
goal accuracy, and fourth in
free throw percentage. This
1-2-2-4 finish is the best on
record.
Everyone knew that Gardner
was there In the scoring race.
After all, he had been the
main early challenger to
Wesley this year and he had
finished fifth in the point
derby last year when he was
labeled the surprise of the
season. But at the recent
semester break, he broke his
foot. He didn't miss a game;
however, he was off his form
and out of the scoring race.
It was impossible for Gard
ner to catch either Wesley or
Coleman. He was so far out
of it after the injury ,he would
have to outscore Wesley, the
defending champion, by 23
points in the season s nnale
to win. What's more, Gard
ner's average was just shy or
19 going into the last game.
He would be fifth again this
year.
The rest has been appro-
priactly recorded. His 42 - 39
back-to-back spree was the
league's top for the year. His
42 marked a single game high
and the 39 tied Wesley for the
second-best honors. Gardner
ended with 284, ar 20.3 average.
Wesley had 283, a 20.2 stand
ard. Coleman, who will be
back next year, had 281, a
20.1 clip.
His stampede showed 28 of
40 tries from the field, boost
ing his shooting accuracy
mark to almost 54 per cent.
second in the Conference. He
also added 25 of 29 charity
tosses, pushing his average to
almost 76 per cent, fourth in
the league. His rebounding
pace held at 10.1, which let
him finish second.
Gardner, however, wasn't
the only all-around performer
in the Conference. Kansas'
Al Lopes also ranked in all
four of the divisions. He was
tenth in scoring, 13.9; eighth
in rebounding, 7.1; eleventh
in field goal accuracy, 47.7
per cent; and sixth in free
throw accuracy, 75 per cent.

night Nebraska pumped in 39
field goals, most ever in a

On February 26 Kansas set
a Nebraska record for most
