Sfarf Against SDU
An all-veteran Cornhusker
quintet is scheduled to open the
University of Nebraska's 1952-53
basketball season against South
Dakota here Saturday night. Game
time at the Coliseum is 7:30 p.m.
Slated to start against Coach
Carl (Rube) Hoy's Coyotes will
be Stan Matzke, Lincoln; and
WJHwd Fagler, Harvard, at for
wards; Bill Johnson, Lincoln,
center; and Joe Good, Lincoln,
and Fred Sorer, Omaha, guards.
Good is the lone senior. Seger,
Johnson and Matzke are juniors
nd Fagler a sophomore.
Seger and Good tied for Husker
second-place scoring honors last
season, each registering 194 tal
lies. Matzke was last year's No.
3 scorer with 162 and Johnson was
fourth with 155.
Chief Busker weaknesses this
season are a lack of reserve
strength and general all-round
nail-handling ability. However
Good labels his club as at least
on a par with last year.
"However, because of the speed
of the game, reserve strength can
beat you," Good declared.
