, V S. ' -v V X 3 wdftusfc.j. - i Hoppe Batten on the parallel bars . . . helped Nebraska's gymnastic team defeat Kansas Friday in a dual match at Henzlik Hall. Nebraska scored 156.30 points to the Jayhawk's 132.50. Thinclads badger Badgers Track coach Frank Seviane's Nehraska inHnnr broke the University of Wisconsin's seven-year home win streak Saturday, racing by the Badgers 76-12 to 54-12. The Huskers broke three Nebraska school records and tied another en route to winning 10 of 14 individual events. Seven of Sevigne's thinclads also posted times which qualified them for the NCAA indoor championships to be held in Detroit March 9 and 10. Leading the record-smashing performances for the Cornhuskers was Lynn Hall. He broke the mile record set by Greg Carlberg in 1969 with a 4:06.3 time. Jim Hawkins set a new 1,000-yeard run record. He was clocked in 2:10.5, besting the record set in 1966 by Peter Scott. Bob Unger broke his own two-mile mark which he set last week at the Michigan State relays.Unger finished with a 8:47.6 time. Teammate Hall finished second with 8:48.9. Dan Moran's 880-yard run record set in 1970 was tied by Roger Chadwick who finished with an identical 1:52.8 time. The record performances qualified all four Huskers for the NCAA championships. Hall's strong second place finish in the two-mile was good enough to qualify him in that even as well as the mile. Karl Webb and Leighton Priestly also qualified for the NCAA meet. Webb won the 60-yard dash in :06.2 and Priestly sped to a winning :48.9 time in the 440-yard run. Ron Childs won the long jump for Nebraska with a leap of 24-5, but missed the NCAA qualifying mark by one inch. Cagers topple, 6 7-59 by Dave Settler NORMAN, OKLA.-Oklahoma used a stiff second half defense and rugged rebounding Saturday to defeat a hot-shooting Nebraska team 67-59 in a Big Eight Conference contest at Norman. The Sooners changed to a zone defense in the second half in an attempt to stop a Nebraska offense that hit 50 per cent of its field goals. The maneuver worked, as Nebraska made only 10 shots from the floor and suffered numerous turnovers after intermission. Trailing 37-33 at the half, Nebraska rallied for a brief 33-37 lead on a Lee Harris free throw. Oklahoma quickly regained the lead and stretched it to 5647 with 7:07 left in the same. Coach Joe Cipriano's Huskers frantically rallied, cutting the Sooner's margin to three points with 3:25 left to play. During that surge, Harris, Jerry Fort, Brendy Lee and Tony Riehl all hit layups for the Huskers to cut the Oklahoma lead to 58-55. The lead remained at three points until Coach John MacLeod's Sooners made five straight points while holding the Huskers scoreless until the end of the game.s, Center Ted Evans and forward Tom Holland damaged Nebraska with strong rebounding. Evans, substituting for injured Oklahoma star Alvin Adams, grabbed nine rebounds while Holland hauled in the game high of 13. Holland and Russell Burks shared scoring honors for Oklahoma with 12 points each. Oklahoma's win brought its season record to 15-7, 5-5 in the conference. Fort was Nebraska's high scorer with 24 points. Harris finished with 13 points and seven rebounds and Riehl added 12. The Huskers will try to improve their record, which fell to 2-6 in the conference and 7-13 overall, when they meet the Oklahoma State Cowboys tonight in Stillwater. Cipriano is expected to start Fort and Riehl as guards and Don Jackson and Harris as forwards. Steve Erwin or Lee will fill the other starting slot. Coach Sam Aubrey's Cowboys will try to rebound from a 75-66 loss Saturday night to Kansas. That loss pushed them deeper into the conference cellar with a 1-7 record. Aubrey probably will go with the same line up that has resulted in Nebraska losses twice this season, the Cowpokes edged Nebraska 75-73 in the Kansas City Big Eight tournament and whipped the Cornhuskers 68-65 in Lincoln. Tipoff is 7:30 p.m. The game will be carried by radio stations KFOR and KFAB. f 01 Nebraska's wrestling team defeated Wyoming Saturday 21-8 in a meet at Pershing Auditorium. Steve Ravenscroft, Bob Johnson. John Bell, Dennis Girard, Jeff Class and Tom Latko won their matches for the Cornhuskers.
