The Daily Nebraskan Thursday, February 25, 1965 Page 4 iM Formation Rain or shine, snow or sleet, cold or coldei, the Intramural basketball tournament goes on as usual. The Misfits moved ahead early against Navy ROTC, and steadily widened their lead for a comfortable 45-29 win. Bob Andrews paced the winners, but was backed by a good team effort. The Aggies and the Hustlers played a tense game all the way with the lead changing hands many times. The Ag gies finally came out on top 41-40. Gerald Larson scored 15 points for the Aggies with Bernie Trausch close behind at 11. Ron Moxham and Dick Bowers potted 12 and 13 points respectively in a losing cause. After being tied at the half Hitchcock spurted to a nine point advantage over Benton at the three-quarter point This was too much for Benton as Hitchcock won by the final score of 44-33. Hitchcock's Kaye Carstens and Benton's Terry Chaillie shared game honors with 15 points each. Carstens teammate, Dean Beck, had ten points as did Benton's Cliff Knispil. Beta Theta Pi "B" won an other close one Monday. This one over Phi Kappa Psi "B". The Betas' defensive ace, Van Vanle, held the Phi Psi's usual high scorer, Bob Churchich, out of the picture making them look elsewhere for points. In the first half Jammie Ammerman took over the role scoring all 11 of his total points in this period. He was shut down in the second half and this was just enough to make the difference. While not playing defense Vahle scored enough to lead the Bet as with 11 points Delta Upsilon "B" swamped Ag Men "B" 48-29 on t h e strength of three men in double figures. Jack Buch finch had 13 and Rick Rock well and Bob Meduna each scored ten. The D U's had little trouble as they opened up a 21 point lead at the end of three quarters. Gary Mul ler was high for the losers with ten points. Phi Delta Theta "C" had an easy time of it in defeating Sigma Chi "C" 48-23. "Ches ter" Salem couldn't miss as he hooped the ball from as tounding distances for a grand total of 13 points, high for the game. The Sigma Chi's were oehind all the way and couldn't find a man to score in double figures. Glenn took an early lead and widened It in the late goins despite pressure from Kennedy to win 46-37. Veldon Magnuson paced the winners with 16 points with Ron Finke's 13 points a close sec ond. Ron Lockard scored 16 for Kennedy. Sigma Phi Epsilon "A" kepi rolling along in their league with a convincing 49-33 win over Pioneer House. The Sig Eps compiled margins of three to five points in each quarter for the win. The Sig Eps' Tim Schmad was again high scor er with 16 points. Tom Ham scored 15 points for Pioneer House. Another outstanding point output by Bob Witte and Bill Zuspan raised Sigma Nu "A" past their opponent. This time it was a tough Cornhus ker Co-op "A" team by the score of 5449. Witte potted 28 while Zuspan was dumping 17. Sigma Nu was up 16 points at the half only to see a fan tastic Co-op third quarter put them down by three. Wayne Johnson and Ernie Novak each scored ten for the losers while Gene Zitek scored 12. "Devaney's crew plus one" stomped out a win for Burnett over Canfield 64-48. Devaney's crew consisted of Freeman White (18 points), Harry Wil son (11 points), and Ted Vac tor (12 points) while the "plus one", was Dale Sail (13 points). This formidable team was just too much for Can field to contend with. John Elifson scored 18 points and Jerry Patton scored 16 points trying to stop them. The reports of two games played Monday which didn't make yesterday's paper fol low. Canfield allowed Seaton 1 15 points in the first quarter and then allowed them only 16 points the rest of the game to coast to a 63-35 victory. John Elifson potted 20 points for Canfield while Al Kuehl and Ivan Zimmer pointed 12 and 14 respectively. Only man in double figures for Seaton I was Danny Richnafsky with 13.

Downtown Lincoln icflfira's SgSvos Coach Joe Cipriano Is long overdue for some praise for his fine job this year at the helm of the basketball Cornhuskers. He has brought a team that was short on experience, short on depth, and long on sophomores to a team which is gaining in experience, acquiring depth, and making the most out of what height it has. "Cip" has found what apparently is the style of play that his boys can handle most adequately, the zone press. On most occasions, the Huskers have made quite good use of the zone press, and it has contributed dividends to the good side of the win-lose column. But Cipriano's biggest contribution to Nebraska bas ketball cannot be fully ascertained this year, but will have to be evaluated in the next two campaigns. The invalu able experience and seasoning that the sophomores are gaining this year will surely be felt when the boys are juniors and seniors. One thing Cipriano has failed to do, however, is to develop an effective scorer at the post. Bob Antalov look ed like the answer during the first few games of the sea son, but he fizzled quite badly just before he was sent home from the Kansas State game at Manhatten. Brice Pearson showed a real flair toward the middle of the season, reaching his peak at the Colorado game away before he injured his ankle in that contest. Pearson has been only at half strength since early February. Pearson must learn to look for the shot if he is ever to become an effective pivot man, and on offensive rebounds, he would do better, it would seem, to go up with more authority when on a follow-up shot. Pearson has improved markedly from last year, and even the early season this year, and he could be the ray of hope at the post position.

Simmons has come of age as far as scoring goes, and has been in double figure the last several eames. Since the Iowa State game at Lin- coin on January 18, Simmons has been high man for the Huskers on four of eight occa sions. He has tallied 269 points this year for about a 12.3 points per game average. His field goal percentage has been outstanding through out the year, and he is pres ently hitting at a clip of over lorty per cent trom tne floor. Simmons greatest asset to the team is not his scoring proficiency but his hustle and team leadership. Simmons and Willie Campbell are the mainstays of the successful zone press the Huskers have used of late. Simmons is a great all around athlete, and hails if AXr f " v; J m limn nwwila'y WJ -wrr A -SStmi Grant Simmons from Omaha Benson where he was an All-America but not in basketball! Simmons eoeroi played end in high school foot, ball where he garnered many of his laurels. He was out standing lineman in the Shrine Bowl football game after his senior year. If Simmons has a fault on the maples, it is probably his tendency toward erratic de fense. He has a tendency to let his man get a step on him, and then commit a foul in try ing to recover position. Simmons however, is cap able of coming up with the big defensive steal at any time, and his harrassing tac tics are effective and the cause of many opponents' mis takes. Simmons' defense is getting better all the time, and with the advent of additional de fensive consistency, Grant could be one of the top guards in the Big Eight Con- . ference. Fred Hare, sophomore sen sation was in strong content ion for the award for the third straight time. MV ft 4 t I .1 dowWtownVand gateway : ' f "' ; ' .' , m " .' ' - i aO. SL.l 1 1 ft w i lyj ...
