.
Perw State Bobcats Hit
Husker Freshmen 78-69
Mike Roach Sparks Cat Attack With 30 Points
Nebraska freshmen
dropped a 78-69 decision to
the Peru State Teachers
frosh in the preliminary con
test before the CU-NU Varsi
ty march.
The Bobcats were sparked
by the outstanding shooting
and floor play of Mike
Roach, a former Husker stu
dent at the University. Roach
pumped in thirty points to
lead both teams in the scor
ing department. Roach was
followed by 6-8 Bob Buettgen
back with 18. Buettgenbach is
a former Beatrice High School
star.
First Stanza
The first quarter was a
gee-saw affair with the Husk
ers coming out on top 18-17.
Neither team was able to
gain more than a two point
advantage.
During the second quarter
Nebraska led most of the
way, but never by more than
two points except for the fi
nal seconds. Sid Stacy sank
three buckets in the final
minute and the Huskers left
the floor with a 34-30 lead.
Ivan Grupe opened the NU
scoring the second half with
a jump shot to put the Husk
ers ahead 36-30. Then with
3 minutes gone in the half
Phil Barth dropped in two
free throws to make it 40-32
for the largest Husker mar
gin of the game.
Huskers Lose Lead
Nebraska maintained their
dopped two free throws with
6:57 left in the game. Then
with 4:55 remaining, Bob
Gibson, brother to former
Husker star Hoot Gibson,
sank a long set shot to put
the Bobcats ahead for good.
Most of the Bobcat scor
ing in the closing minutes
came on free throws and
goals by Roach.
Sid Stacy copped Husker
scoring honors with 14 fol
lowed by Bernt Elle with 11
and Ivan Grupe with 10.
Coach Jack Mclntyre of
Bobcats thought his boys
played a fine game. He said,
"I think we just out-hustled
them."

Shot in Last Four Seconds Breaks 5 Game Losing Streak
By Randall Lambert
. and Hal Brown
The Huskers pried and
pried, but they couldn't get
the lid off. It wasn't until
Herscell Turner hit two jump
shots in the last half minute
that the Huskers were able
to score a field goal and cut
down a Colorado rally 62-61.
Nebraska led 58-50 with
five minutes left when the
Buffs began to slowly crawl
up on the Huskers until they
had reversed things and
went ahead 59-58.
Harry Fouls Out
During this time Husker
center Bob Harry had fouled
out while repeated Nebraska
shots flirted with the rim
and fell out.
Finally Turner hit a short
jump shot to put Nebraska
in command 60-59. However,
Gerry Schroeder was fouled
when the Buffs brought the
ball down the floor and
promptly hit both his shots
to give Colorado back the
lead with 12 seconds left.
Nebraska took it out-of-bounds
and began looking for
the shot. With about seven
seconds left Al Maxey passed
the ball to Turner, who was
between the half court circle
and the free throw circle.
Hirsch eyed the bucket, hes
itated momentarily, and let
go with the basket that
brought the Nebraska bench
and fans to their feet.
Kowalke Opens Scoring
Nebraska had led most of
the game after Jim Kowalke
opened the first half with a
jump shot. Colorado bounced
back to tie it at 2-2, but two
consecutive jump shots by
Bob Harry and , Turner gave
the Huskers a lead they nev
er lost until the last minutes. FOUR COLORADO DEFENDERS, Glen Piper (25), Don Walker (41), Russ Llnd (11), and
Albert Maxey proved that Gerry Schroeder, stand watching Herschcll Turner and wondering which way the decep-
persistance pays off when he tive Husker playmaker will go next,
nabbed the ball twice in

succession just before the
half. Colorado guard, Russ
Lind tried to pass the ball in
after a Nebraska' basket, but
Maxey snagged the ball and
layed it In for two points.
The flustrated Lind tried
again but this time he threw
it into the supports under the
basket. Nebraska took the
ball out and passed it to
Maxey who hit with a short
jump shot.
Wayne Hester did an out
standing defensive job on
Colorado's star guard Gerry
Schroeder. He held Schroed
er to 8 points, four of them
coming from the free throw
line.
SIDELIGHTS: Herschell
Turner's only thought as he
fired the winning basket was,
"Let it go."
The first thing Gerry
Schiueder did, when fouled
with 12 seconds remaining in
the game and Colorado trail
ing by one, was to scurry to
the bench for a towel. After
wiping the perspiration
away, he stepped to the line
and sunk both free throws to
give Colorado the lead and
set the stage for Turner's cli
matic shot.
Nebraska coach, Jerry
Bush shed his sport coat with
about two minutes left in the
game.
There was a direct con
trast between the two teams
in the dressing rooms after
the game. Nebraska's was
full of joy, back-slapping and
hand-shaking while Colorado
dressed behind a locked door
with hardly a sound to be
heard.
In the hall leading to the
Buff's dressing room, there
was a trail of resin, left
there, when Colorado
Coach, Sox Walscth, threw
the resin bag against the
wall.
Gerry Schroeder, Colorado , Tlif Vnllrvllflll
guard, lost his contact lenses J

for the second consecutive
year at the Coliseu. .. Last
night, they merely slipped
out of place and after a short
delay, he was ready to go
again. A year ago, he lost
them completely and after a
lengthy search, they were
given up as lost. Matt Bask

Colorado leit the floor ear
ly eight minutes before game
time, and were the last team
to return to the floor before
the start of the game.
