Huskers sweep doubleheader from Dana College
By Jeff Goodwin
Nebraska's baseball team swept a doubleheader from
Dana College Tuesday afternoon at Buck Beltzer Field
by scores of 7-3 and 12-0.
The Huskers jumped to an early lead in the first
game by scoring two runs in the first inning. Mark Prior
singled and scored on Roger Hill's triple. Hill scored when
Steve Stanicek grounded out to the second baseman.
Dana came back to score a run in the second when
John Schnaible singled and stole second. He scored on
Mitch Lane's single.
Dana scored another run in the sixth to make the
score 3-2. The Huskers scored five runs in the bottom of
the inning to put the game out of reach. The big blow for
Nebraska came on a grand slam home run by Mark Mc
Manaman. Jeff Andeson came in to relieve Rick Evans and picked
up the win for Nebraska, raising his record for the year to
6-1.
Nebraska got a strong pitching performance from Mike
Vojtesak in the second game. He went all seven innings
and scattered five hits.
Nebraska once more drew blood as they scored three
quick runs in the first. Chris Chavez walked and stole
second and then scored on Mark Prior's single. Hill then
repeated his performance of the first game and hit another
triple to score Prior. Hill scored on a ground out by Bill
Hendricks.
The Huskers score two more runs in the second on a
two run homer by Mark Prior. Nebraska also scored two
more runs in the fifth and put the game out of reach in
the sixth by scoring five runs. The Huskers collected
six hits in the inning including a two-run double by Hill.
Votjesak raised his record to 2-2 with the win.
Nebraska travels to Omaha today to play a two-night
doubleheader against Creighton. The Huskers host Big
Eight leader Missouri for doubleheaders Saturday and
Sunday at Buck Beltzer Field. The first game starts at
1:30.
Junior college was 'perfect' for new Husker
By Bob Asmussen
Coffeyville, Kan., may not sound like much, but for
Mike Rozier it was perfect.
Rozier spent 1980 football season playing for Coffey
ville Junior College. He had been originally recruited by
Nebraska but had grade problems and was declared ineli
gible. He signed with Coffeyville to get his grades up and
to get some playing experience.
The 5-11, 215-pound running back gained 1,100 yards
in what amounted to about six games. His play left
Coffeyville Coach Dick Foster impressed.
"Mike's a super player," Foster said. "He's a super kid
too. He was hurt for three games and he still gained 1 ,100
yards. It seemed he got better and better every week."
Foster is used to coaching good running backs. Five
years ago he coached Dallas Cowboys running back Ron
Springs. He compares Rozier favorably to Springs.
"Springs was a great junior college player," Foster said.
"Mike had as good a first year as Ronny. I'd say he has
the potential to be just as good as Ron Springs, if not
better."
Foster said after signing with Nebraska out of high
school, Rozier felt obligated to Nebraska.
Lasting decision
"Mike wants to go to Nebraska," Foster said. "Other
schools wanted to get at him but Mike told me he didn't
want to talk to them. He made up his mind and he was
going to stick to his decision. That shows a lot of charac
ter. A lot of kids would have been tempted to look for
something better, but not Mike."
Foster said Rozier's greatest asset was his strength.
"For a running back Mike is very strong," Foster said.
"He's not that big so he has to make up for that with su
perior strength. He came in here and worked real hard to
build himself up."
Foster said the biggest adjustment for Mike was in
coming to the Midwest from New Jersey.
"Mike felt homesick," Foster said. "He's adjusted now.
The pace is slower and Mike really likes that."
Rozier echoed that feeling.
"It's a big change," Rozier said, "but I'm really happy
here. There's more to do in Camden (NJ.) but those
"No. 3' bowls from behind in win
By Ward W. Tripleti III
Clutch shooting by Bill Peck and Dan Ogden led a team
called simply "No. 3" to a 16-pin victory in the finals of
the 1981 all-university roll-offs.
No. 3, so named according to team captain Jerry Leon
hardt because no one took the time to think of anything
else, had to come from behind to defeat D&S ZoZo's
1268-1242 in the wrap-up of the 30-team tournament.
To reach the finals, each team competed in a two
game series, with scoring aided by handicap. Peck, Ogden,
Leonhardt and first-year member Bob Schutts marched
through Monday's final eight by going past Big Red
runner-up Chi Phi 1279-1274, and outlasting Husker
League champions, the Tappers, 1297-1 193.
The ZoZo's defeated the Big Red champions, the
Luckenbach Outlaws, 1190-1098, then blitzed past the
Collegiate League champs, the Forum, 1343-1138. The
win was largely due to a second game that saw each ZoZo
pick up eight or more marks, with Don Mays 188 lead
ing the way.
Four Husker players
included in pro draft
Four Nebraska football players were picked in the
first six rounds of the pro draft Tuesday.
The New Orleans Saints started off the second round
of the draft by picking defensive back Russell Gary.
Gary will join former Nebraska assistant coach Lance
Van Zandt who took a job with the Saints earlier this
year.
Ail-American I-back Jarvis Redwine was the 24th pick
of the second round. He was drafted by the Minnesota
Vikings. Redwine played with the Cornhuskers the last
two years after transferring to UNL from Oregon State.
He was considered a top Heisman Trophy candidate
last year until he suffered from some broken ribs in the
Florida State game.
The final pick of the second round was Andra Frank
lin who was chosen by the Miami Dolphins. Franklin
was a three year starter for Nebraska at fullback.
As expected, the first pick of the day was Heisman
Trophy winner George Rodgers of South Carolina. Big
Eight players picked in the first round were: David
Verser (Kansas), Cincinnati; David Overstreet (Oklahoma),
Miami; Keith Gray (Oklahoma), Pittsburgh; Howard
Richards (Missouri), Dallas. The final rounds of the draft
will be tomorrow.
Derrie Nelson, the 25th pick of the fourth round,
was taken by the Dallas Cowboys. Nelson was a starting
defensive end for the Cornhuskers for two years and an
all-Americah his senior year.
With a 52-pin handicap as an aid, the ZoZo's won the
first game by 21. With Steve Kecks opening double, they
jumped out to an early lead in the second, but that faded
until three ZoZo misses and three No. 3 marks tied the
game at 19 marks apiece in the sixth.
By then, Ogden was following an earlier example by
Peck and rolled four consecutive strikes between the
fifth and eighth frames. Peck had strikes for the second
through fifth. No. 3 took a 30-pin lead for the series
by the end of the eighth.
The ZoZo's fought back with Scott Miller, Dennis
Kottwitz, and Mays each striking in the ninth, but the
Kegler League champs maintained the 30-pin advantage
through the tenth and last frame. Peck ended with a
186 (171 average), and Ogden a 213 (146 average).
Al Starks 412 in first -round action last Wednesday
for the Agneter's held up for the men's high series crown.
Stark rolled a 241 in that series, but tournament rules
disallowed him from winning both trophies. The Tappers
outbowled the Forum in the consolation match to claim
the third-place trophy.
things make you sway from what's important, like
school."
Rozier's grade problem in high school has gone away
since he's been at Coffeyville. The change of scenery has
helped.
Studying is tough
"The atmosphere is good for me as far as school is
concerned," Rozier said. "Getting used to studying was
tough. Football comes easy but studying is a little hard
er.", Rozier wants to play I-back at Nebraska and has set
lofty goals for himself.
"I see myself as the No. 2 I-back," Rozier said, "but
I'm going to try and be number one. I want Roger Craig's
spot on the depth chart."
Rozier said moving to fullback was not one of his
favorite ideas.
"I want to run the ball," Rozier said. "I can. block
good enough to be a fullback but I don't want to be one."
Rozier feels he needs improvement in his blocking and
pass catching. He played in the wishbone in high school
and at Coffeyville which hasn't allowed him to catch
many passes
Rozier is happy with his decision to attend Nebraska.
"I have no regrets," Rozier said. "I like the program,
Coach Osborne is a great coach. The level of competition
is very good I'll have to work awful hard."
Rozier's ultimate goal is to play professional football.
He doesn't view that as too lofty.
"I think I'll be able to play pro football," Rozier said.
"I'm aiming to play in the NFL."
According to Foster, Rozier is capable of almost any
thing. "He was the best junior college running back in the
nation in 1980," Foster said. "Nothing he does at Ne
braska or after that would surprise me. Mike Rozier is
going to be a great running back,"
