80-49 by the Michigan State
Spartans Friday at East
Lansing', while the Kansas

and 510" Jon Thompson
have been named as possi

slate as Cal State, the South
Dakota squad will send its
probable all-time leading
scorer against Nebraska in
an effort to gain victory
number one.
Jack Thee'er a 6'4" for
ward, who holds the Coyote
season scoring' ucord with
608 points, needs only 127

By MARK GORDON
Sports Editor
After watching his var
sity basketball squad breeze
to an easy 98-67 victory Fri
day night over the Nebras
ka freshmen, Husker cage
coach Joe Cipriano was
more than pleased with the
yearlings performance.
"They are the best fresh
man team we've played,"
he said.
"They pressured us out
. of our offense and made us
go to a couple of other
options."
Although the frosh played
the varsity on even terms
until the score was tied at
seven all, the varsity's ex
perience and team work
quickly took its toll on the
youngsters.

Scantlebury hitting 15 points

McCook Invades
Coliseum
By CHARLES DAVIES
Assistant Sports Editor
Glenn Potter's freshmen
basketball team opens i t s
season at 5:15 p.m., Mon
day preceding the Varsity
game against the McCook
Junior College Indians at
the Coliseum.
After a 98-67 loss to Ne
braska's Varsity, an im
provement from last year's
96-48 defeat, Potter said
he was pleased with his
team although they were
not in excellent physical con
dition for the opening game.
"The defense was good
until we got tired," he said.
Potter was pleased with
the freshmen rebounding,
led by 67" center L e r o y
Chalk with 11 grabs, and
said the team moved the ball
well on fast breaks.
MISTAKES
"We made a lot of mis
takes though," he said, "and
our passing needs improve
ment." Potter also said that cen
ter Bernard Brown, the
team's tallest player at 6'
10", and Cliff Moller, a 6'1"
guard, did a good job.
Brown had nine points and
Moller was the team's lead
ing scorer with 13 points.
"We tired because we
haven't spent a lot of time
in practice using the full
court," he explained. "Our
workouts have been primar
ily on half court patterns."
McCOOK STRONG
"Thanksgiving vacation
also bothered us" Potter
said. "Some of the boys
were not around to prac
tice." Potter said he scouted
McCook in a recent junior
college tournament at Nor
folk which the Indians won.
"Rebounding is their
strong point," he said. "They
have some adequate shoot
ers too."

who displayed his last sea
son's quickness, pushing in
18 points, Cipriano's team
held a 43-26 halftlme mark
and coasted to victory in
the second 20 minute stan
za. "They (the frosh) will be
a fine team in a couple of
months," Cipriano said.
"They have good speed and
quickness and they have
some good rebounders."
Although the frosh held a
two inch average height
advantage over the elders,
the varsity grabbed 53 re
bounds while Glenn Potter's
crew snared 34.
But the game's story can
be summarized by one sta
tistic the varsity shot a
red hot 50 per cent (40 of
80) while the freshmen hit
27 of 81 for 33 per cent.
"We'd like to keep that
kind of shooting up," the
Nebraska cage boss said,
Today
Indians will have an exper
ience edge over the Husker
freshmen. "They have three
sophomores in the starting
lineup," Potter said, "which
means a year's experience
on our kids."
ZONE DEFENSE
"McCook has also played
more games than our kids,"
he said.
The freshman coach said
the Huskers have spent con
siderable time practicing
against a zone defense
which the Indians employ
against their opponents.
"We have been working
against their offensive
pattern too," he added.
"The outcome of the game
will be a question of condi
tioning," Potter said, "And
I think our kids will come
back."
The tentative freshman
lineup: Chalk at center;
6'8" Tim Allmond and 6'5"
Tom Bryan at forwards;
and 6'3" Richard Krone
busch and Moller at guards.
The freshmen play an in
tersquad match at 5:30 p.m.
Tuesday before the Nebras
ka Varsity meets South Da
kota at the Coliseum.

Approximately 1,500 stu

end. The tickets, costing $5.25

week at the Coliseum ticket

Plans for Progress

"but it will be tough to do
so with the teams we play,"
Cipriano praised veterans
Lantz, who led all scorers
with 25 points, Tom Baack,
who found the scoring range
in the second half and fin
ished with 15 points, and
Scantlebury, who made sev
eral steals and quickly
turned them into two-pointers
en route to a 23 point
evening.
The varsity's defense
pressured the inexperienced
yearlings into committing
25 turnovers, while the var
sity was giving the ball up
19 times.
Cipriano said this year's
Scarlet and Cream "have
more depth and we're use
ing more players than last
year."
Twelve Huskers saw ac
