By Pat Beecham
Nebraska's men's gymnastics team
started its new season the same way they
ended the last one winning.
The Huskers walked away with the title
at the Big hight Invitational gymnastics
meet at the Bob Devaney Sports ("enter
this weekend. Nebraska finished with
550.3 points, 10 points better than Iowa
State's 540.3.
What makes the win more impressive
is the fact that the Huskers did it with
out the services of Jim Hartung in the all
around. "I'm pretty pleased with our overall
depth," Head Coach Francis Allen said.
"We didn't use Hartung in the all-around
and we still won by 10 points."
Nebraska's Phil Caiioy won the all
aiound title for the meet, ('ahoy finished

"I'm pleased with everyone in general,"
Allen said. On the highly -touted Mikus' de
but Allen said, "Mikus could'vc been
better, but he did fine."
Another thing that pleased Allen about
the Huskers' decisive win was the fact that
the teams Nebraska beat arc the same
teams the Huskers will have to beat at the
NCAA championships.
"Nebraska, Iowa State and Oklahoma
are one, two, three in the country," Allen
said. "II you add UCLA, these will be the s
same teams we will have to beat at the
NCAA meet. They'll get better though, and
the 'II score higher."
Allen said that the goal now for the
lluskeis is to prepare all the all-arounders
for the national meet.
Allen also said the Huskers have a one
time chance to accomplish something
really big this year.
"We have an opportunity of a lifetime
to accomplish something this year," Allen
said. "We can take advantage of having the
championships here and ensure that gym
nastics live longer at Nebraska."
