Open to Colorado Spring Colo.
The team doeent look too bad," Walton said.
We3 get scmequelliy athletes, but no depth. A.
couple cfthe E'j Li;,ht teams should be pretty deep.
But, if we ctay healthy, I don't see any reason why we
cant 1 3 riht In there (in the conference race)."
The Ccrnhuakers won the El Elht champion
ship lait year, their flfrth in Coach Judy Cchalks

Furman was last year's DI Eijht floor exercise
champion. .
The Huakcrs' third all-arounder heading into the
season is Jody Twoey, a sophomore who earned
All-Big Eiht honors as a freshman and was the
vaulting champion at the Midwest regional.
: Walton said junior Annette Lladigan also has been
doing a good job in pre-season drills, and fa a possi
ble all-aroundcr. She certainly will compete in the
' floor events, Walton said, and is a good bar swinger.
Walton said he thinks Missouri will be the favorite
to vdn the Big E!cht thb year.
"Missouri b very deep, and Oklahoma should be '
improved," he said. "Oklahoma State had a good
recruiting year, and should be improved."
W altcn said he thinks some people may overlook
N.c.wr " VI- wfcft
Tccpls rcey be counting us out because cf the
coaching ck-r'he said. They're not sure what
kind of program we're going to have. But I think well
surprise come people.
"We have a lesser amount of people than some of
the other teams, but I think that allows us to give
more quality time to each individual Besides, no
matter how many people those teams have, they can
only put a certain number of people on the floor at
onetime."
Nebraska will compete in the Mountain region
thfa year, and not the Midwest as in the past Walton
said the Mountain region fa tougher because it con
tains Utah and Arizona State, No. 1 and 2 to the 1C33
NCAA championships. Nebraska finished 10th at
.that meet
"It's going to make it tougher to go to the NCAA
meet, because we really cant expect to beat those
teams," Walton said. "Well hope for an at-large bid,
and I think well stand a good chance of getting one."
Injuries have contributed to the lack of depth on
the Nebraska squad, Walton said. Freshman Renee
Gould and junior Char Hegeman have been side
lined with ankle injuries, but should return to action
early to the season, he said.
