J NU Record Stands 2-1 After Pacific Tom Baack, 6-5 Nebraska forward, matched his sea son scoring average of 26 points against the Univer sity of the Pacific Saturday night to lead the Husker cagers to a 90-78 victory over the visiting Tigers, last year's West Coast Athletic champions. The game was played before 7,460 fans in the Nebraska Coliseum. Saturday's win pushes Ne braska's record this year to 2-1 while it was the first loss for Pacific which now posts a 3-1 season mark. Nebraska jumped to an early 2-0 lead but was down to the Tigers until a lay-in by Baack with 13:22 re maining in the first halt gave Coach Joe Cipriano's squad a lead which they never relinquished. The Huskers, employing a full court press, scored four straight baskets in one spree late in the first half and held Pacific to a single free throw. Nebraska took a 40-23 lead with 4:01 re maining and a 44-29 edge at halftime. After Nebraska surged ahead using the press, the game was on fairly even terms during the last half. Top scorer for the Tigers was forward Bob Krulish with 24 points. Keith Swag erty, the top point-getter for Pacific coming into the game and WAC's most val uable player last season, netted 17. Husker center Willie Campbell had the job of guarding Swagerty and netted four points before fouling out with 17:41 left in the game.

Sophomore Grappler Captures Lone By Ed Icenogle Sports Assistant Gene Libal, sophomore Husker wrestler, contends that the competition in last weekend's Great Plains Wrestling Tournament is about as tough as it comes. On the other hand, his competition will say the same thing about Gene. Libal won five matches Friday and Saturday, com piled the fewest number of "black marks" in the 191 pound weight class and car ried off Nebraska's only first place trophy at the meet. Libal had not expected the championship, but his coach, Orval Borgialli, was not too surprised with the showing of the former Lex ington prep standout. "It's not really a big sur prise," Borgialli said. "I suppose the surprise is that he's just a sophomore. "Gene's got two things go ing for him: he's got fine balance for a big wrestler and he's exceptionally strong," he said. "I wrestled in the Great Plains last year as a fresh man and got beat out," Li bal recalled. What's the difference be tween this year and last? "I did gain a lot of ex perience," Gene said, "es pecially before the Nation als last spring."

The South squad has not yet been chosen. i ited workouts with Bob Pickens as particularly helpful. In addition to wrestling in the National AAU Meet, Libal also entered the Rocky Mountain AAU Meet last year, gaining one win, one draw, one loss and more experience. Borgialli pointed out that these AAU matches (11 in all) gave Libal more training than any other Cornhusker soph omore. J.'He's the kind of kid you really enjoy working with," Borgialli said. But there are at least five people who didn't enjoy working with Gene his mat victims at Pershing Auditorium. Libal took the champion ship from Jeff Arnold of Pueblo, Colo., in a 2-0 de cision in the round robin eliminations. The three contenders in each wieght division with fewest black marks were in the eliminations to set tle the top three spots. Black marks were assessed in the earlier matches. Win ning a decision drew one black mark, a drawing was two, losing a decision drew three, and losing in a fall netted four black marks. Six black marks eliminated a wrestler. Libal defeated his biggest competition, Oklaho ma State's Ron Gabfoit, who moved to the 191 class from wrestling varsity heavy weight for the Cowboys. OSU had seven champions in the meet.

Libal did not wrestle against Iowa State the day before the Great Plains be cause the Cyclones, did not enter a representative in the 191 class, optional in Big Eight duals. The Husk ers were defeated by ISU 27-11, with NU winning in three weights. Carel Stith and Ben Bar rends took the heavyweight and 177-pound categories, respectively. Jerry Lang don, the only other Corn husker to finish in the top four in the Great Plains, captured the 123 match. Langdon earned third place in the Great Plains after gaining the round rob in finals and then losing his last two matches. "I'd hoped we'd do a lit tle better," coach Borgial li commented on NU's show ing. "But you just never know." Borgialli also praised John McVay, who won four matches as a freshman. The Huskers will try to improve their Big Eight standing when they take on Missouri and Kansas State this week on a southern trip.
