Baseballers Face K-State
Ron Havekost and Ernie
B o n i s t a 1 1 are billed for
mound appearances this af
ternoon to face one of the
toughest baseball teams for
the Huskers to whip in the
Conference Kansas State.
The Wildcats will host Ne
braska this afternoon for a
doubleheader and a single
game on Saturday.
Keith Sieck has been given
the starting nod for the Sat
urday encounter.
Kansas State, although
not one of the top conference
contenders, always has plen
ty in store when facing the
Nebraska nine.
Last year the Wildcats
came to Lincoln when the
Huskers were vying for the
third spot in the standings.
Nebraska needed all three for
third place.
But Kansas State took two
of the three and spoiled
the Cornhusker hopes.
Kansas State could be a
giant killer again as the
Huskers need a fine showing
to break the tie with Colora
do for fourth place.
This series will be the last
for six of the Nebraska sen
ior baseballers as they close
out their careers as Corn-huskers.
