By Kevin Schncpf
UNL golf coach Larry Romjue said
he thinks this, year's squad has the" po
tential to finish in the top division of the
Dig 8 Conference.
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.
Hie Huskers hrvs a young squad, Rom
jue said.
"Besides the ' four golfers we took to
Mexico, well hive another sophomore and
a freshman in our next meets.
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.

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 . . , .
Four Colorado ski resorts report that
the slopes are greatly improved because of
the blizzard.
::v " John Resl of the Keystone Ski Resort '
said Keystone Mountain received 13 inches
of snow last week.
This last storm ia March' really helped
us out," he said. "We were 25 per cent
down from last year as far as snow condi
tions." -
Reveal said the lower portions of Key
' stone Mountain are rated good and the
upper portions excellent with a 44-inch
. base, lis said tie slopes are hard-packed
because of the snow making machines.
"We dont have many reservations for
next week," Reveal said. "People just think
it's a terrible year to ski.
' "We normally have 65 to 70 inches of
snow, whereas now we hare 44 inches," he
said. Steamboat Springs, which closed
Feb. 14 and reopened Feb. 26, received
15 inches of snow last week, according to
.. employee Chris Gallon. ;
"We've been managing to get two or
three inches of snow every third day for
the past week or so," Gallion said. "The
conditions of the slopes are very improv
ed." Gsllion said Steamboat Springs lost a lot .
of group reservations this year, but said
Steamboat is about 50 to 60 percent
full for next week.
The temperatures at Steamboat have
4ieen- 40 degrees with occasional mow, she
said.
