The team completed a trip last week, to Guadalajara, Mexico, where it finished 18th out of 36 teams in the Eing Croy Amateur Invitational. 1 Romjue said the squad, consisting of juniors Doug Smith, Rick Reynolds and Craig Moyer and sophomore Steve Station, improved its score as the meet progressed. 4We improved our scores by 17 shots the last day of the meet," Romjue said. "We improved as the tourney continued, 'If we'd play down there again, we'd have improved scores," The Bing Crosby Tournament, which was the first competition for the Huskers this year, included teams from Texas, Arizona and Florida. "Most of the teams down there had the advantage," Romjue said. "It was a diffi cult course for those who havenl played for very long." CSU 11 8 favorite Oklahoma State University, the favorite to win the Eig 8 title, also was at the meet, Romjue said. 'They (OSU) beat us by 100 strokes down at Guadalajara," he said, Tut we can cut that margin in half by the time of the Elg 8 tournament." "It's hard to tell how well finish in the Big 8. 1 don't see us beating OSU this year, but I feel we have the potential to finish in the top division." Romjue said the Huskers placed third two years ago, but added they have dropped into the lower division the last two years. , Romjue also mentioned the University . of Oklahoma, the University of Colorado, the University of Missouri as strong conten ders for the Dig 8 title.

The Huskers next meet will be during spring break in the Morris Williams Tourna ment in Austin, Texas. ' ' Cirer.3 fi-U The meet, hosted by the University of Texas March 25 through 27, will have a strong field, according to Romjue. "Texas, Florida, Arizona and the Okla homa schools will be there, so it should be a very competitive tournament " Romjue said the Huskers will not host any meets because he said it is difficult to get teams to Lincoln. ' . Ten days after the Morris 7i"iar.s Tour nament, the Huskers will compete in the Wichita State University Invitational April 7 and 8. Romjue said the Huskers will play the University of Kansas April 19 at Lawrence. "This will give us a chance to play on the course that will be used for the Eig 8 tournament," he said. The Huskers will compete in the Drake Relays in Des Moines, Iowa, April 27 and 28, and will be in Indiana May 1 and 2 for an invitational, he added. spores Dy Ke!a Schnepf Last week's blizzard which swept across western Nebraska and eastern Colorado could not have been better timed if you have;hsi 'skiing'-on your mind for spring break. . . v . . , .
