Huskers tame Bobcats

Harvey Marshall started the engine
Monday night, and Dave Hoppen, Curtis
Moore and Bill Jackman kept it running
as the Nebraska basketball team sped
past Montana State, 86-65.
The 6-11 Hoppen led Nebraska with 23
points, and forwards Moore and Jack
man finished with 21 and 18 respectively
to lead the Cornhuskers to their third win
against no losses this season.
Although he would be plagued by shoot
ing problems later in the game, Marshall
helped Nebraska off to a fast start. The
6-3 transfer canned three of his first four
shots to help the Huskers take a 17-6
lead. The Huskers never looked back.
Montana State cut the lead to 19-13
with 1 1:57 left in the half, but Moore got
the Huskers back on track with an alley
oop slam dunk. Freshman guard Joel
Sealer fed Moore with a perfect pass on
the play.
"We design that all the time," Moore
said of the alley-oop play. "It's going to be
there as long as I'm around."
Hoppen outplayed Montana State's two
big men, 6-11 Tryg Johnson and 7-0 Greg
Walters, for one of the game's telling fac
tors. Hoppen scored 16 points in the first
half. Johnson, the Bobcats' starting cen
ter, finished with 2 points and fouled out
with 17:30 left in the game. Walters fin
ished with 14 points to lead Montana
State.
Montana State coach Stu Starner start
ed both Walters and Johnson for the first
time this season.
"We started those big guys because we
were playing against Dave Hoppen,"
Starner said. "He's got to be one of the top
two or three centers in the country. When
Tryg Johnson got into the foul trouble,
the game was over for ua"
Nebraska led 48-33 at halftime and
extended that lead to 20 with 15 minutes
left after a 7-point string. Montana State
responded with 7 straight of their own,
paced by the outside shooting of all
conference guard Jeff Epperly, who had
missed all four of his first half shots.
But Nebraska turned that attack back
with a Jackman one-hander in the lane, a
long shot from Brian Carr and a 12-foot
pull up by Joel Sealer on a break.
Then it was show time again for Curtis
Moore. Sealer led another break but had
to outrun Bobcat guard Troy Hampton
for the basket. Hampton forced him out
side, but just as Sealer appeared to be
going out of bounds, he scooped tie ball
with one hand backwards to the trailing
Moore, who put down his eighth jam in
two nights over a fiat-footed Hampton.
Nebraska's offense then began to show
the wear of the three games in five days
stretch. The Huskers scored only six points
over the next six minutes while the Bob
cats scored 11. On defense, the Huskers
were committing several unnecessary fouls
and letting the Bobcats get offensive
rebounds for the first time all night. But,
Nebraska went back to Jackman (three
baskets) and Moore (two) to close it out.
"We were well prepared for them. We
knew what kind of things they would do,"
Starner said "But they took advantage of
us at forward early and just overpowered
us. They've got a very, very good team."
Nebraska will play Creighton Saturday
at 7:30 p.m. in Omaha.

Women capers bow to rated teams
By Rich Cooper
Daily Nebraskan Staff Reporter
The Nebraska women's basket
ball victory tour got off to an
unspectacular start last weekend
as the Huskers dropped two
games in the Minnesota Dial
Classic Tournament.
The Huskers lost to Minnesota
90-79 and to 14th-ranked Ten
nessee 77-58. Fourth-ranked
Northeast Louisiana won the
tournament championship by
beating Minnesota 82-66.
Nebraska coach Kelly Hill said
her team played well but just did
not have the height to match the
other teams.
Terry Parriott led Nebraska
with 36 points in the two games.
"Until the tournament she was
in a bad slump, but she played
very well," Hill said.
Hill said the thing that hurt the
Huskers most was lack of height.
Minnesota had blocked shots
against the Huskers.
In the consolation game, Ten
nessee beat the Huskers with a
strong full-court press and a fast
transition game.
"We just could not get any shots
off against Tennessee," Hill said.
"We knew going into the game
that this would probably be the
toughest full-court pressure that
we would face all year, but we
learned from the experience.
Debra Powell had only nine
points. The leading scorer for the
Huskers, Parriott, had only 12
points.
Maurtice Ivy played little be
cause of muscle strain in her left
thigh. She is questionable for the
Creighton game Saturday after
noon. Hill said she hopes her team
will not get down about their 1-3
pre-season record.
"Some of the girls that have just
started playing for us might not
be used to losing, especially if
they played for a high school
team that only lost two games in
three years," Hill said.
Spikers travel to Michigan
The Nebraska volleyball team
will travel to Kalamazoo, Mich.,
Saturday to face Western
Michigan in the Mideast
Regionals of the NCAA volley
ball tournament.
The Huskers lost 15-9, 12-15,
12-15, 8-15 to the Broncos in
the first round last season.
Western Michigan was unde
feated at the time, and drew a
crowd of 8,543 to the match,
still an NCAA record.
This season, the Broncos are
26-7, despite a starting lineup
of two juniors, three sopho
mores and a freshman. The
Broncos beat Illinois State in
four sets to earn the spot in
the Regionals.
Nebraska beat Pittsburgh -15-6,
15-10, 18-16 in Lincoln
Saturday.
The Husker-Bronco match
will begin at 5 p.m., while Penn
State (30-5) will face Pacific at
7:30 p.m. Penn State defeated
Pacific in California 15-13. 2
15, 15-12,8-15, 16-14whilethe
Tigers were ranked No. 1.
