Daily Nbrsixn Staff Reporter
Coming off an impressive dual
meet with Air Force, the Nebraska
men's swimming team is prepar
ing for a pair of meets in Texas
this weekend.

pions crushed the Cadets, 8-4-30,
winning nine of 13 events.

honors on both the 1 -meter and
3-meter diving boards.
While Castro dominated the
diving, Jowdy and sophomore Mike
Edmonson won the 200-yard back

Neumann High School will be the

Huskers, whose season begins
Nov. 23 with the Kusker Invita
tional. Husker coach Kelly Hill said
her team has been working most
on rebounding and defense dur
ing its practices.
"We're going to be about the
same kind of team we were last
year, mil said. WeVe put in
couple of new defenses, but we're
going to work as hard on aggres- said. "I was looking at our sche-
sive defense and transition as we dule the other day, and wondered
did last season." why we're playing these kinds of
Rebounding has been the big- teams."

Nebraska Coach Cal Bentz was
ecstatic about his squad's recent
performances, but warned that
now isn't the time to decrease
their intensity.
"We're making progress," Bentz
said. "We're working hard and
improving our times.
"I've been pleased with the
J
gest area of concern, since the
Huskers did not do a particularly
good job of that last year.
"For some reason, we forget
that that was important," Hill
said. "We paid for it in some
pretty disasterous ways a few
times."
The Red-White game is annu
ally moved around the state to
help promote the team, Hill said.
"This is our chance to give the
team a little promotion, and it
also helps out our public rela
tions," Hill said. "Wahoo is near
enough to Omaha and Lincoln to
draw a little from that crowd."

forward to that next came " Hill

coach Moe Iba said. Sophomore

"Joel played well, but he's going
to have to learn he can't do seme
of the things he did in high school,'
Iba said.

results so far, but I don't want us
to shut down now."
Bentz hopes to see more im-
provement when the Huskers
travel to the Lone Star State Fri-
day to swim against Southern
Methodist.
Bentz said the Mustangs have a
strong program, which includes
several Olympic Swimmers.
It's going to be an excellent
opportunity for us to swim against
some fast people "Bentz said. Thai
is how we improve swimming
against faster people as opposed
to slower people.
Although the two teams are
competitive rivals, Bentz said. SMU
and Nebraska maintain a "good
relationship." The Mustangs plan
to come to Lincoln for the Husker's
invitational meet this winter.
Texas Christian is next on the
agenda for Nebraska. The Huskers
travel to Fort Worth Saturday for
a dual meet with the Horned
Frogs.
Bentz said he wasn't sure if
TCU swims as well as its nick
name suggests.
"I really don't know much about
TCU," Bentz said. "Our objective
of swimming against them is to
have another meet scheduled for
our Texas trip."
The long road trips are a tough
adjustment for the swimmers,
both athletically and academically.
Bentz said he refrains from sche
duling too many road trips
because the athletes miss classes
and fall behind in their studies.
"One of the toughest things for
us is being away from home,"
Bentz said. "We try to minimize
our trips because of academics."

"Colorado State and Wyom-

advantage," Nebraska Coach
Ray Huppert said. "There will
be some effect."
In addition, Wyoming and
Colorado State arent push
overs. Huppert said the Cow
girls can beat Nebraska with a
good effort if his team thinks
they dont have to work hard
to win. The Rams, he said, are
comparable in talent to Big
