High sclncol friends lead junior varsity at Missouri
By Paul Martin
When the UNL junior varsity football team travels to
Columbia, Mo. this, week to face the Tiger junior varsity
team in a Friday afternoon contest, they will, "without
question," face their toughest test to date, according to
Frank Solich, head junior varsity coach.
While the Husker sauad is predominantly made up of
freshmen, Missouri likely will have several' upperclassmen
playing.
Solich said MU has played a lot of upperclassmen in
ast year and has done the same so far this fall. He said
e doesn't expect that to change in Friday's game.
The junior varsity is currently 3-0 and will attempt to
hand the Missouri junior varsity their first loss of the year.
According to UNL freshman wingback Ricky Simmons
the Huskers will have to execute well to emerge victor
ious. . ' -
"We've just got to execute and play the good football
that I know we're capable of playing," he said.
Simmons, in addition to his wingback duties, will re-

The Huskers' other junior college transfer is Chris
Kowalsi, a 6-1 forward-center from Bergen Community
College in New Jersey. She scored over 1200 points in two
years there.
Other players on this year's team include: freshman
Lynne Miller, a 5-10 all-state forward from Grand Island,
Nebr., freshman Molly Shanahan, a 6-1 center from
Ventura, Calif., freshman Renee Murphy, a 5-10 forward
from Macedon, N.Y, and sophomore Connie Ottman, a 5-5-6
guard from Rupert, Idaho.
New assistant coaches are Paulette Gebert from Penns
burg, Pa. and four-year UNL performer Laura Tietjen
from Byron, Nebr,
Gallagher said she has the players for a good team, but
added that they'll need tremendous fan support this year.
"We need students to come out to yell and scream for
us," she said. "We're going to be an exciting basketball
team with our pressure defense, fast breaks, and an im
proved offense."
' The Lady Husker's first action will be Nov. 16-17 in
the Nebraska1 Invitational 'at the Bob Dcvaney Sports '
Center. .

turn kick-offs and punts for the Cornhuskers. .
Tne 5-2, 160-pound speedster from Greenville, Tex.,
has been clocked at 9.3 seconds in the 100-yard dash and
is capable of going all the way at any time," according to
Sohch.' , .
Simmons has handled five kick-offs this year, averaging
38.0 yards per return. In a 17-8 victory against Kansas:
earlier this year, he demonstrated his breakaway ability by
returning a kick-off 99 yards for a touchdown.
On offense, when Simmons handles the ball, it is likley
the man getting it to him will be his former high school '
teammate and starting junior varsity quarterback, 6-2,
179-pound freshman Nate Mason.
In his senior year, with Simmons in his backfield,
Mason led Greenville to a 9-1 record and a co-championship
in Texas largest high school classification.
In their final year at Greenville, the pair had a com
bined total offensive production of 3,566 yards and
scored 38 touchdowns between them.
When it came time to decide where to attend college,
the two said they discussed 'the various possibilities and
decided that wherever they went, they would go together.
MI wouldn't have come here if he (Simmons) wouldn't
have came," Mason said.
Simmons echoed Mason's sentiments saying they de
cided that "if one came (to NU), the other would too.'
According to Simmons, the junior varsity team has no
problems in playing consistently well. The team is general
ly well prepared, he said.
Mason said, though, that his consistency is hurt by not
playing every week as he did in high school. He said he
felt by playing each week he could plan more consistent
ly. Nebraska's junior varsity lost the last two times they
made the trip to Columbia. To come home with a victory
Friday, Solich said the team has to rid itself of "mental
and physical errors" and play a little more consistently"
than the squad has in its three previous games.
The game, originally set for Faurot Field, has been
changed to a practice field because of the wet conditions.
