Nebraska track coach Frank Sevigne changed his mind at
the last second and evidently, everything worked as he
planned.
The team was to compete in the U.S. Track and Field
Federation meet in Houston, Tex., but Sevigne had second
thoughts and decided to attend the Michigan State Relays
in East Lansing instead.
Sevigne switched with hopes of qualifying some of his
relay teams for the March NCAA championships in Detroit.
Nebraska's distance medley, two-mile relay and mile
relay thindads posted times good enough to qualify for the
NCAA meet.
But the meet's most encouraging performance came
from one of Sevigne's distance runners, Bob Unger.
Unger smashed the Michigan State fieldhouse two-mile
run record with a winning time of 8:48.1. The new mark
breaks the record of 8:48.9 set by Doug Brown of
Tennessee last year.
After an average cross-country season, Unger has
regained the form that made him one of the top Big Eight
Conference runners last year.
He not only broke the two-mile Michigan State
fieldhouse record, but set a new meet record and broke his
own UNL mark.
Nebraska's next meet will be a dual Saturday against the
University of Wisconsin at Madison. Sevigne says the meet
will provide a great opportunity for his athletes to qualify
for the NCAA individual events.
"Wisconsin has superb track facilities and some men that
should provide tremendous competition for us," he said.
Coach Bill Perrins' Badgers have high expectations for
the 1973 season with 24 returning lettermen. They placed
third in the Big 10 indoor meet and second in the
conference outdoor championships last year.
Although the Badgers lost all-american high jumper Pat
Matzdorf through graduation, the team has a balanced team
including Gordon Crail, Wisconsin's first pole vaulter to
clear 16 foot (16-1); and two natives of Nairobi,
Kenya-Patrick Onyango, the defending Big 10 triple jump
champion and freshman sprinter Tariq "the Streak"
Mughal.
One of the top races could be the two-mile run featuring
Unger and Wisconsin's top distance star Glenn Herold.
Herold won the three-mile run at the Michigan State
Relays in record time of 13:39, only three seconds off the
U.S. record for the event. Herold finished fourth in last
fall's NCAA cross country meet.
While qualifying team members for the NCAA meet will
be Nebraska's main goal Saturday, winning the meet will
also be on the minds of Sevigne and his squad, Sevigne said.

UNL imports rugby
Another British import' is making its way to UNL,
according to Phil Sienna, director of recreation and
intramurals. A rugby club is now being started.
Sienna said starting the team was Chuck Snell's idea. Snell
had been on a rugby team at a college in Missouri.
"This will be an inexpensive sport to compete in," he said.
"All we need to supply is a couple of rugby balls."
An intramural league is possible if there's the interest.
Sienna said the team also may be able to play teams from
other universities.
"I think with good participation and effort we can compete
against other teams in the area," he said.
"Rugby is a natural for spring," Sienna said. "It combines
good conditioning with skill and it is a good contact sport."
"Since football is such a big sport here in the fall," he
continued, "I see no reason why a rugby team won't succeed
in the spring."
Snell said he expects rugby to be received well here because
it is popular throughout the Midwest.
Rugby teams in Missouri, Kansas and Iowa have developed
the Heart of America Football-Rugby Union. In this program,
Midwest teams play in a league.
Anyone wishing to participate in this program should
contact Phil Sienna at the Department of Recreation and
Intramurals.
