April 5-5 -dates" for NCAA
men's gymnastics tiilemeet
By Paul Martin
If you are a gymnastics buff, then
youH want to mark the days April 3-5
on your calendar. And even if you're
not, you may still want to keep those
days in mind.
During that three-day span over
spring break, some of the most talented
amateur gymnasts in the country will be
in Lincoln competing in the NCAA
men's gymnastics championships at the
Bob Devaney Sports Center,
After winning last year's meet at
Baton Rouge, La., Nebraska will have a
chance to repeat as titlists in front of a
home crowd this year.
For much of this year, Nebraska has
been perched atop the National Associ
ation of Collegiate Gymnastics Coaches'
ratings. In the latest poll, the Huskers
had the number one and two rated all
arounders: sophomore James Hartung
and freshman Phil Cahoy,
Among top six
Hartung and Cahoy have competed
internationally and are recognized as
two of the top six amateur gymnasts in
the United States.
Hartung, Cahoy and the rest of
Francis Allen's team will not go, un
challenged in their quest for back-to-
back championships.
With Iowa State-the number two
team in the latest ratings-competing in
their region, the Huskers probably will
be hard pressed to win the Midwestern
regional title. The Cyclones have depth
and a top all-around performer, Ron
Galimore.
In the west, UCLA has been among
the top five teams most of this season,
relying on the strength of standout all
arounder, Peter Vidmar. In the NCAA
meet, the Bruins likely will be a force to
be reckoned with.
Perennially strong Louisiana State
will have a chance to show they can't be
forgotten when they meet UNL in a
dual March 2 in Baton Rouge.
Upset
And just three days ago, then num
ber five rated Southern Connecticut
State upset the Cornhuskers in a dual
meet. Perhaps even more surprising than
UNL's loss were Hartung's and Cahoy's
uncharacteristic second and third place
finishes. SCSU's Mario McCutheon won
the all-around with a 58.3, better than
Hartung's 58.05 and Cahoy's 57.85.
With the usually tough teams strong
again and a few newcomers performing
well this season, the 1980 NCAA meet
has the ingredients to be one of the
most exciting ever.
