Iba: Team improving,
final lineup uncertain
Ey Kcvia Wcmclia
With three weeks of practice be
hind them the Uusksrs, cj a whole,
have shoivn frcat amounts of im
provement, Nebraska Basketball
Coach Mce Iba said.
The intensity level is not where it
should be" he said. "But as a whole,
they're picking up the offense and .
defense pretty well"
While he has been happy with
some aspects of practice, Iba said,
other aspects have been less then
"I'm hsppy with the way the play
ers are working," Iba said, "and the
effort theyVe made to pick up the
offense."
But defensively, Iba said, the Busk
ers are lacking, especially in the
rebounding department
"We should be a better rebound
ing team than last year," Iba said.
"But at this point, we're not"
Two bright spots have been the
play of newcomers Brian Carr and
Keith Neubert A shoulder injury to
Titus Dock, a 6-5 freshman, has
been the only major setback, Iba
"Carr's done very well in adjusting,
and Neubert's showing some signs
of playing well," Iba said. Dock dislo
cated a shoulder, and his status for
the season is uncertain, Iba said.
Redshirt freshman James Moore,
John Matzke and Hike Martz can all
expect to see some playing time, Iba
"They're playing better than they
were playing a year ago," he said.
"But it takes time to get back into
the swing."
Iba said Matzke, a 6-6 graduate of
Lincoln High is now the top pros
pect to replace last year's third lead
ing scorer Gaude Renfro at the
strong forward position. -
"It's a situation where he's done
very well in practice," Iba said.
"We're still trying to make decisions
on where to play people.
"John's very mobile. We need to
find him a position to play."
H'oh leaping ability Isnt outstand
ing, his shot isnt perfect and his
rebounding skills arent superb, but
'Matzke said he has one attribute
that could help him secure the start
teg position.
"Hustle makes up "for a lot of
things," Matzke said.
A 6-6 strong forward might be
considered short at most colleges,
Matzke said, but at Nebraska it's
"pretty average."
"Besides with my shoes on, I'm 6
7," he said.
Even with more attention placed
on his performance, Matzke said, he
still doesnt feel more pressure.
"The fact that there's not many
people oh the team means that eve
ryone is being watched to a certain
degree," Matzke said.
But should the season opener
arrive and find Matzke not in the
starting lineup, he said, the world
wont end.
His status on the team, Matzke
said, isnt a major concern.
'Where I play is one of those
things that will take care of itself,"
Matzke said. "It's still pretty early
very early. Ill leave the coaching to
Coach Iba and play where he tells
me to play."
. The Huskers open their season at
home Nov. 16 with an exhibition
game against Brandon University.
Iba said the outcome of the game
will not be included in Nebraska's
record. ,
On Nov. 22, the annual red-white
scrimmage will be in Grand Island.
"These games will give us a chance
to look at the players," Iba said.

"We'd probably wind up second be
hind Nebraska, and we wouldnt haw
to play them until the finals. Even if we
go 2-1, that would be good."
Nebraska whipped the Sooners in
three straight sets at Norman Oct. 22,
but Husker coach Terry Pettit said he
thinks Oklahoma has a good team.
"Physically, they match up with us
pretty well," Pettit said. "They have
good height along the front line, and
they have a strong outside hitter in
Marcy Crabtree. They're very strong at
the net, and to do well, we need to hit
the ball of their blocks or over their
Swimmers...

Huber said the team was fortunate
to get some freshmen this year. They
are Heidi Hecker, Stephanie Clennan
and Dianne Marotto. They join junior
Kathy Lundy, and Marcia Heaton, a
sophomore, who redshirted last year.
Lundy placed in the top 12 at the Big
Eight meet last year and Heaton comes
back after ankle injuries last year and
a neck injury this summer.
"It's possible to look at everybody on
the team and say they've improved,"
Huber said.
This improvement seems to be the
result of hard work. Huber said a
foundation of mechanical strength, flex
ibility and conditioning has been laid
in the past seven weeks. He said the
divers continue to work on weights
and onthe trampoline as well as the
blocks."
Sooner coach Miles Pabst said he
knows the Sooners have a tough road
trip ahead.
"We know Missouri and Nebraska
will be tough," he said. "Nebraska beat
us soundly before. We did a number of
things wrong, but weVe been working
them out"
Copp said she thinks a good start
might help the Sooners in their match
against Nebraska.
"It might be a lot different match if
we would ,come out and win the first
game," she said. "It might really pump
us up. Then again, it might make Nebras
ka mad and fire them up."

Huppert said one of his goals is con
tinual improvement. The team has
taken second place in the Big Eight
championship and for the past two
years, he said, and Kansas has out
scored everybody by leaps and bounds.
"Ask us in February if the conference
title is one of our goals," he said. "I'm
pleased with how people are challeng
ing themselves, but until you get that
first meet under your belt, you dont
know how you're going to perform."
That opportunity to perform strikes
today when the women divers face
. Colorado State. Huppert said a dual
meet against them last year wasnt
decided until the 11th event
"They're a better program than last
year," Huppert said. "If our team isnt
mentally and physically prepared, it
could be a long day for us."
