ymnasts to meec powerful xe
Despite finishing second at the Big 3 Conference Invi
tational meet last weekend, UNL women's gymnastics
coach Judy Schalk said she does not expect her team to
win its next dual meet.
Tonight's meet is against another number two team,
Southwest Missouri State University. However, South
west Missouri is ranked second nationally.
Southwest Missouri is strong in all respects, Schalk
said.
They have a couple of "elite performers which are
the forerunners of Olympic gymnasts."
Two Southwest Missouri gymnasts to watch are
Claudia Woody and Cheryl Diamond, Schalk said.
Woody does back flips on the balance beam. And her
other events, are equally as exciting," Schalk said.
Possible top finishers for the Huskers are freshmen
Tammy Driscoll and Crissy Robertson, the coach said.
"Tammy did really well at the Big 8. She made the
finals in all four events (vaulting, uneven bars, balance
beam and floor exercise), and that's hard to do," Schalk
said.
The top scorer for the Huskers was Robertson, who
Women s swim feom
nun
finished second in both the vaulting and balance beam
competition.
"I was really pleased with my performance,"
Robertson said. "I didnt think I would do so well.
"I didnt do so well in the prelims the first day, but I
came back and did all right in the finals."
Host Iowa State University won the two-day tourna
ment by seven points over the Huskers.
"Iowa State legitimately beat us, but not by seven
points. Maybe by three or four, but not by seven," Schalk
said. .
The scoring for the meet was generally pretty low.
And it tended to be in favor of Iowa State."
Tonight's meet, starting at 7:30 in Mabel Lee Hall,
formerly the Women's Physical Education Eldg., will have
an added feature. The two schools' private gymnastics
clubs will compete simultaneously with the two main
teams.
The Ozark Gymnastics Empire will take on the
Nebraska School of Gymnastics Club. These private clubs
feature girls between ihe ages of 12 and 17. Schalk said.
gn for win, Big' 8
A "hungry" UNL women's swim team is
in Lawrence, Kan., today for the Big 8
Conference Swimming and Diving
Championships.
Head coach Ray Huppert said his team
t is "hungry" for this meet, adding that the
" University of Missouri and the University
of Kansas are the teams to beat.
"They're the two powerhouses of the
league' Huppert said. "We swam against
them this year in a quadrangular meet. We
beat Missouri, but lost to Kansas."
All Big 8 schools except Kansas State
University and Colorado University will
compete in the three-a'ay event.
Huppert said he is looking for good re-
suits from UNL swimmers.
Freshman Melanie Jakob, who .will
compete in two relays and five individual
events, said the team's goal is to win the
conference crown.
"We want to beat Kansas really bad,"
'she said. "Missouri will be tough and all
the other teams will be ready for this
meet."
Huppert said Anne Watland and Jakob,
two of UNL's top swimmers, have been
aided this year -by Sue Lewis, Micki
Crosby, Heidi Harris, Deb Petersen, Lois
Hayman, Cheryl Schmidt and Eila Austin.
"They have been strong contributors all
year," Huppert said. "They will play an
important part in how our team does."
After this weekend's competition, the
Huskers host the Region 6 Championships,
Feb. 24 to 26 at the UNL Sports Complex.
Jakob said it is exciting to think about
hosting the regional, but added that the
team is taking one meet at a time.
"Everybody on our team has improved
this year," she said. "That's one of -our big
accomplishments."
