Wrestling coach confident of squad's
Ity Kevin VViinieke
Although the UNL wrestling squad will
not be facing one of the nation's finest
wrestling team when they meet South Dak
ota State Friday, Coach Bob Fchrs is con
fident there won't be a letdown in his
teams' motivation.
"It's possible that we might have a let
down, but we hope it won't happen,"
Fchrs said. "They upset us two years ago.
Back then we didn't have any South Dak
ota natives on our squad, but now we do.
Those three starters will want to do well
against their home compadres."
The squad is coming off a recent 21-17

"I've always been on the go," Furman
said. "I think the gymnastics have helped
me set up a daily routine. In high school
I was in cheerleading as well as gymnastics,
so the busy schedule is nothing new to me.

victory against Indiana, which saw Nebr
aska come back from a 17-0 deficit.
"Our coming back for the victory is a
combination of factors," Fchrs said. 'Our
middle to heavyweight wrestlers arc more
experienced and the better part of our line
up was in the lower weight classes."
"I'm not real familiar with the SDSU
squad. They have a new coach and we
haven't competed against them in two
years since last year's match was can
celed because of inclement weather," he
said. "They're a young team, which is
both good and bad. Maybe they'll be
enthusiastic because of their youth, but
they're also inexperienced."

Although this is Furman's first year of

nament veteran. Furman got her start in
gymnastics is grade school. Along with
Kim Grabowski, a UNL teammate, and
some other girls, Furman joined a club di
rected by Francis Allen, UNL's men's gym
nastics coach.
Since working with the team, Furman
has noticed some differences between club
and college gymnastics.

Injuries have been a constant barrier
standing in the way of the Cornhusker's
success. Johnnie Sclmon, Judd Norman,
John Shearer and Bayard Closscr have all
been injured recently. Fehrs said under
classmen have been called on to fill the
spots of the injured wrestlers.
Fchrs said that because of these injuries,
the lineup has had to be shifted around and
partners arc taken away in practice.
"We have put stress in practice on our
ability to escape from opponents and also
we're being ridden too much, " Fehrs said.
"But basically, the season is going as we
anticipated."
"Oklahoma beat us 27-16, but they were
said. "Right now, 1 1 to 15 is the prune age
for competitors. I think in general, train
ing is taken more seriously in college.
That's one of the reasons why the college
level is getting tougher and tougher every
year."
Scholarship helped
The decision to attend college wasn't
very difficult lor Furman, but which col
lege to attend did give her problems.
"I almost graduated at mid-semester
of my senior year of high school, but I
didn't think I was ready for college,"
Furman said. "When I did gradualte, Ne
braska didn't offer me a scholarship. I vis
ited Oklahoma State and I was ready to
sign with them, when I received a scholar
ship offer from Nebraska. I like UNL's pro
gram and I decided it would be the best
one for me."
While Furman competed several years
for the Nebraska School of Gymnastics,
she did take a year off to compete for Lin
coln Northeast High School.
"I think my coaches at the club were a
little disappointed when I competed in
high school, but they knew that I'd be
back," she said. "In high school, Kim
Grabowski and I had so much more exper
ience then the rest of the girls. It kind of
made me feel bad. When I did go back to
the club all of my friends understood."
In her first college tournament, Furman
placed first in floor exercise and fourth on
the balance beam at the Rocky Mountain
Open in Colorado Springs. Coach Judy
Schalk believes Furman is going to be one
of her top all-arounders if she can over
come her weaknesses.
"Right now Terri has three strong
events and one weak one," Schalk said.
Swimmers to turn Hawaiian
for holiday-break in vitational
By Jodie Fields
Intense training in a positive environ
ment, good competition and a recruiting
aid are all benefits the Nebraska swimming
coaches said the Christmas training trip to
Hawaii will offer.
"We want to take the athletes to a posi
tive environment for training. It will en
hance the training program. It will be fun
and a lot of hard work," Ray Huppert, the
women's coach said.
Two two-hour workouts per day will
take up most of the athlete's time, but
there will be time to lay on the beach and
sightsee.
Men's coach Cal Bentz said the teams
will leave Lincoln Dec. 28. They will com
pete in the Rainbow Invitational at the
University of Hawaii. On the way back to
Lincoln the men's team will stop for a dual
meet with Stanford, Jan. 8.
. Bentz said this is the fourth Christmas
training trip the teams have taken. In past
years they have been to Southern Califor
nia, south Texas and Florida. Bentz said
these trips have helped to establish Nebras
ka as an up-and-coming team.
motivation
rated No. I," Fehrs said. "Wc felt that we
should win the next three matches, but wc
haven't won them as soundly aswc should
have. That is due to injuries, though."
Many goals for the season were set at
the beginning of the year, but according to
Fchrs one sticks out more than the others.
"Wc set several goals for the team, some
general, some specific," he said. "We
would like to move up in the Big Fight ch
ampionships and take third place."
But first things first, and Coach Fchrs is
confldcntgoing into the SDSU match. "I
think we should win by at least 12 points,"
he said .
The match will begin at 7:30 p.m. in
the Bob Dcvaney Sports Center.

"She's going to have to work on her un
even bar routine, but shell do it. She's
really a strong competitor."
Uneven bars problematic
Furman thinks her trouble with the bars
can be attributed to her strength.
"The bars have always been a dot into
weakness for me," she said. "I like the flo
or best if you fall, you're not falling off of
anything. I think my best asset is my flex
ibility that helps me with events like the
(loor and the balance beam. If I were
stronger the bars would probably be my
best event."
Furman enjoys gymnastics because of
the people envolvcd. "The people I meet
are really crazy, they know how to have
a good time."
"I suppose Kim and I could have been
rivals, but we never really competed against
each other. We were always for the team
and not as individuals. I've always looked
up to Kim. We try to help each other
whenever we can."
When Furman gets a break in her sch
edule, she spends it with her sisters in
Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority.
"It's nice to get a break now and then,"
Furman said. "You eat, drink and breath
gymnastics and you get tired of it some
times. My sorority really helps me out."
While UNL's women's gymnastic team
has not been as successful as the men's
team, Furman says the public shouldn't
count them out for Big Eight honors.
"We're not going to win the national
championships," Furman said. "But I
think well surprise some people, including
ourselves."
Bentz said these trips have helped Ne
braska by letting the team compete against
quality teams.
Other teams that will be competing at
the Rainbow Invitational are Arizona
State, BYU, Simon Frazer from Canada,
Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin and North
western. Huppert said the swimmers have raised a
lot of the money for the trip. They have
been selling Final swimwear and taking
pledges for an aqua-thon where they swam
for money by the lap.
"If I would take it (the money) out of
the budget there would be little or no
money left for the rest of the season,"
Huppert said.
Bentz said it has worked out well for
the men's team because it only has two
trips this year, so the budget can absorb
the costs. He said future training trips will
be confined to California, Texas and Flor
ida. Both coaches agreed these trips help re
cruiting. They can meet swimmers in the
area plus athletes that are thinking of com
ing to Nebraska are impressed that Nebras
ka makes this trip. Bentz said.
