Freshman to inherit Gregory's backcourt spot
Joe Cipriano has a problem and he's banking on
freshman Ricky Marsh to solve it for him.
Cipriano has named Marsh as the probable heir for
the starting guard position vacated when Tom
Gregory was declared ineligible last week.
Cip, who has struggled to a 6-8 season record,
hopes Marsh can provide some team leadership which
has been lacking during the first half of the Husker
campaign.
"Marsh has worked hard in practice and has shown
signs of leadership in the past, so we think he deserves
a chance," Cipriano said.
Marsh will be joining another freshman, Jerry
Fort, in the Nebraska starting backcourt, when the
Huskers face Missouri on Saturday at the Coliseum.
The 6-3 native of Cambria Heights, N.Y., has
appeared in 1 1 games this season and has averaged 3.3
points a game. His single-game, high point production
came against powerful Kentucky when he scored
eight points.
A member of the all-New York city first team,
Marsh is considered to be one of the top catches in
the Cipriano recruiting era at Nebraska.
Cipriano had planned to play Marsh earlier in the
year, but it has taken the freshman a while to fit into
the Nebraska playing style.
"We were disappointed with Ricky in some of his
early performances," Cipriano said. "But he has really
started to come on lately and we are confident he can
do the job."
If Marsh should falter, Cipriano will probably go
with senior Tony Riehl.
Riehl, 6-4, played great basketball for the Huskers
last year until he injured his ankle. Since then he has
been somewhat of a mystery, as he has been unable
to return to his pre-injury form.
When the Huskers travel to Ames, Iowa next
Tuesday to play Maury Johns' Cyclones, they may be
well advised to borrow a few helmets from the
football team.
Iowa State fans have continued the bush league
tactics they displayed when the Husker football team
visited Ames last fall.
Oklahoma coach John MacLeod critized Cyclone
fans Saturday when they threw debris on the floor
during the Sooners' contest with Iowa State.
Cyclone fans responded by beaning MacLeod with
ice cubes. Big Eight Conference off icials who worked
at the game reported the incident to the conference
commissioner.

Finken, Manning pin K-State
The Nebraska wrestling team, sparked by
reserve Dennis Finken's unexpected victory,
Tuesday night defeated Kansas State, 24-18,
at Manhattan, Kan. It was only the second
season victory for the Husker matmen.
Finken, who wrestled in the 177-pound
class in place of injured Bob Johnson, was
wrestling two classes above his normal
158-pound category.
Finken, a sophomore from Logan, Iowa,
pinned Phil Donley 20 seconds into the third
period.
Ralph Manning, a junior from Kellerton,
Iowa, registered the only other Nebraska
pin. He pinned Dan Ruda in 4:15.
Monty Halstead, Cliff Myles, Steve
Ravenscroft and John Bell posted the other
Husker victories.
For Bell, it was the third straight victory
since he came back from the Orange Bowl.
He was Rich Glover's replacement at middle
guard last fall.
Dennis Girard and Tom Lotko lost close,
one-point, decisions.
Kansas State gained six points when
Nebraska forfeited the 1 18-pound class.
For Lotko, it was only his sixth loss of
the season while he has scored 20 victories.
