Despite crowd, Lady Huskers lose to rated UCLA
By Mark Getzfred
It was an unexpected start for freshman Ami Beiriger
against the 14th ranked UCLA Bruins Saturday night, but
the Hastings native responded to the challenge.
Beiriger got the nod when Laura Tietjen, who was
scheduled to start for the Lady Huskers, came up with the
flu before Saturday's contest.
"Ami played very well," said Lady Husker Basketball
Coach Lorrie Gallagher. She said Beiriger is young and
made some mistakes, but played with great intensity and
hustle.
The freshman guard scored six points, dished out five
assists and had two steals against the Bruins as
the Lady Huskers took the defending AIAW champs to
the wire before falling 72-63. A crowd of 6,000, the
largest in Nebraska women's basketball history, viewed
the game.
Inside game hurt
Led by All-Americans Anita Ortega and Denise Curry,
with 21 and 16 points, the Bruins' inside game hurt the
Lady Huskers in the first half. Ortega canned 1 1 first half
points to give UCLA a 35-27 halftime lead.
Nebraska had jumped out to a 6-2 lead early in the
game on a basket by Mathaline Otis and two freethrows
each by Grainne Murray and Diane DelVigna.
But Nebraska turnovers and the strong rebounding of
UCLA kept NU trailing throughout the first half. After
NU center Carol Garey pulled Nebraska to an 8-8 tie
with 14 minutes left in the first half, cold shooting
Women's track team
wins invitational
By Paul Huscher
The Nebraska women's track team kept most of the
gold at home Saturday by capturing first place in the
Husker Invitational Track and Field Meet at the Bob De
vaney Sports Center.
NU won gold medals in 12 of the meet's 16 events, in
cluding a sweep of all three rejays.
The Huskers dominated the meet which included eight
other schools, and finished with 171 points, 50 points
ahead of second place Iowa.
The other schools competing in the meet finished in
the following order: Mankato State (56), UNO (43),
Wyoming (34), Central Iowa (32), Drake (26), South
Dakota (11), and Wesleyan (2).
Husker head coach Carol Frost, who is irr her third
year at UNL, said she felt Nebraska did very well despite
having some injuries.
Frost said North Platte sophomore Cindy Tatum per
formed superbly.
Tatum earns golds
Despite being plagued by flu and a fever, Tatum earned
four gold medals. She won the 300- and 60-yard dashes
and anchored the winning 880 and one mile relay teams.
Tatum, who has qualified for the AIAW nationals in
three events (60-yard dash, 880 and one mile relays), said
she is very optimistic about the upcoming Big Eight meet,
which will be in Lincoln Feb. 17-18.
"We beat Iowa State last week and they won the Big
Eight last year," Tatum said. "It's hard to say, but I think
we'll do really well. I think we'll surprise a lot of people."
The crowd, which was estimated at 2,500, really
picked up the team, she said.
The women's meet was held simultaneously with the
men's dual with Kansas, which NU won 70-61 .
NU senior Cindy Dixon also drew praise from Frost
for her mile run victory.
Dixon set a new school indoor record in the mile run,
taking first place with a 4:48.3 winning time, best in the
Big Eight this year.
Dixon also anchored Nebraska's winning medley relay
team.
Other than Dixon's record -setting mile time five other
Husker records were broken.
School records broken
Sharon Burrill, a freshman from Denver, Colo.,
captured first place in the high jump with a 5-10 leap,
erasing her mark of 5-9, which she set last week.
Karen Frazee, a junior from Summerfield, Kan., who
switched from the NU women's basketball team to join
the track team, set a new NU indoor record for the pen
tathlon. Winning three of the five events in the pentathlon,
Frazee earned 3,441 points, which was enough to qualify
her for the AIAW nationals. She edged out teammate
Sondra Obermeier, who finished second with 3305
points.
Karen Woods, a freshman from Carson City, Nev.
finished third in the shot put but managed to set a new
NU record with a throw of 43' 1!:". She broke the old
mark of 42'8" set in 1977 by Deb Raddatz.who finished
fourth in Saturday's meet.
Other first places
Betty Selman. Julie Seaton and Janet Bates combined
with Cindy Tatum to set a new school record in the 880
yard relay with a time of 1 :43.8.
Other first place finishes by the NU women included
Julie Seaton in the 440-yard dash (57.99), Lisa Kramer in
the 1 ,000 yard run (2:39.6), and Cheryl Zajic in the 60
yard hurdles (.0826). Sharon Burrill and Janet Bates
finished 1-2 in the long jump with jumps of 18 1 ' and
1 78" respectively. .
The Huskers next meet will be at Wisconsin on Feb.
10.
plagued NU for the next seven minutes. The result was a
25-12 UCLA lead.
Nebraska, however, closed to within eight points,
35-27 at halftime.
Gallagher said she was proud of the job the shorter
Huskers did on the boards. The Bruins out-rebounded the
Lady Huskers by two in the first half and finished with a
41-32 edge.
DelVigna, the 5-9 forward from Oakland, Calif., kept
the Lady Huskers in the basketball game throughout the
second half as she finished with a game high 24 points.
With 12:55 left, DelVigna hit both ends of a
one-and-one to close NU within seven, 5043. Four
minutes later a DelVigna tip-in had NU within five, 56-51 .
Two field goals by Nebraska's Janet Smith and a steal
and subsequent basket by Ami Beiriger kept the Lady
Huskers within five points late in the game.
Turnovers hurt
But turnovers and fouls caused by the Nebraska press
made the score look lopsided at the end, Gallagher said.
She said Nebraska's defense played well. Grainne Mur
ray, she added, played very well against the Bruins 6-5
center, Melanic Horn.
Beiriger said the Lady Huskers tried to keep the Bruins
off balance by switching defenses throughout the game.
Nebraska's full court press didn't work because they
weren't getting the traps in the corners, she said.
Gallagher added she had wanted to go into the full
court press with three and one half minutes left in the
game. A mix-up on the court prevented it, she said.
"The girls are playing good basketball," Gallagher said.
And the crowd of 6,000 helped them and may generate
some interest in the game, she added.
Young and improving
"They want Nebraska's support," Gallagher said. "It
helped them to come out tonight and hear someone cheer
ing for them."
Gallagher said her team, with an 18-9 record, is young
and improving. If they had beaten UCLA, they would
have been rated, she added.
"I'd play UCLA every year if I could," she said. "I'd
play Tennessee, Old Dominion, Way land Baptist-every
team I could with a reputation that could help you."
The Lady Huskers will again play the preliminary game
Saturday at 5:15 when they host Northwest Missouri
State.
