Husker tour results in two game split
By Pete Wegman
Nebraska's basketball Corn
huskers are in the midst of their
first road trip of the season, a three
game swing through the South
west. The trip resulted in a two
garne split over the weekend with
the remaining game Tuesday night
at North Texas State.
The Cornhuskers participated in
their second Sun Devil CJassic
Friday and Saturday in Tempe,'
Arizona. In their first appearance
in the tournament in 1968, the
Huskers lost both games, to
Arizona State and California.
Coach Joe Cipriano's squad
turned in a much more credible
performance their second time
around, however.
Nebraska's first round oppo
nents were the Long Beach State
49ers, 24-2 last season and ranked
in the top twenty in preseason polls
this fall.
Huskers surprised 49ers
The Cornhuskers surprised the
highly favored 49ers, winning a
tight defensive struggle, 67-55.
The contest was the first between
the two schools in Nebraska's
78-year basketball history.
Cipriano was elated with the win
and said his team's defensive play
was the key. Nebraska, third in the
Big 8 in defense last season,
allowed the 49ers only 27 points in
the first half and 28 in the second.
All Big 8 guard Jerry Fort led the
Husker scoring with 27 points.
Cipriano said Ford has improved
offensively and is a strong candi
date for ail-American honors this
season.
The other half of the Huskers'
backcourt combination, guard
Steve Willis, tallied 12 points.
Forward Bob Siegel added 11,
while leading the squad with 13
rebounds.
Tables turned
The tables were turned Saturday
night, however, when the Corn
huskers faced the host team, the
Arizona State Sun Devils. The Sun
Devils, victors over Montana Fri
day night, jumped to a 37-29
halftirne lead over the Scarlet and
Cream and then coasted to a 83-62
win.
The Cornhuskers were out
rebounded (46 to 35), out-shot from
the field (29 field goals to 21), and
from the charity stripe (25 free
throws to 20).
The Sun Devils led by 11 points
early in the contest and the
Huskers couldn't recover, never
leading in the game.
Willis and Fort paced Nebraska
with 13 points each. Center Larry
Cox scored nine points from the
line and finished with 1 1 .
The Big 8 tournament December
26-30, looks tougher every day for
the Cornhuskers. Preseason favor
ites Kansas and Oklahoma are
rapidly establishing themselves as
the class of the conference.
