oas lyyicji win
By Bob Asraussen
Going into Saturday night's game
with 2-16 Eastern Washington, Ne
braska Coach Moe Iba had won 09
games as a head coach.
Ten minutes into the game, with the
Cornhuskers leading 24-10, it was clear
this would be victory No. 1 00. Nebraska
rolled to an easy 105-71 win that
improved its season record to 10-3.
The outclassed Eagles led the game,
6-4, with 17:37 remaining in the first
half on two free throws by forward
Tony Chrisman. Nebraska then rolled
off eight straight points before Eastern
Washington could score again.
On four occasions in the first half,
Huskers had scoring strings of six
points or more. They led the Eagles
45-28 at intermission.
A balanced first-half scoring attack
was led by center Dave Hoppen's 10
points. Eric Williams had seven points,
while John Matzke and Stan Cloudy
had six each. Chrisman tried to keep
the Eagles close with 18 first-half points.
Williams said the game with Eastern
Washington would help the Huskers
gain some confidence heading into Big
Eight play.
"It gave us a chance to work on some
things," Williams said. They pressed us
some so we were able to work on our
press offense."
The second half was a repeat of the
first. Nebraska outsc6red the Eagles,
23-12, during the halfs first 8:38.
The lead continued to grow and
reached 34 points three times, the last
being the final score.
The only suspense left in the second
half was whether Nebraska would reach
the century mark. Titus Dock answered
that question when he scored two of
his eight points on a driving layup
down the baseline.
Cloudy led the Huskers with 20
points. Iloppen chipped in 17
points and Brian Carr came off the
bench to add 14 points. All 13 Nebraska
players who suited up for the game
saw action and 12 of them scored.
Chrisman led all scorers with 28.
Cloudy said the game was some
thing he needed to get him back on the
right track heading into Big Eight play.
"I felt like I had a couple of bad
games (during semester break)," Cloudy
said. "I didn't play well In the second
half of both games, in Atlanta (at the
Cotton States Classic)."
"I was thinking about it in practice a
bit, I've gotten away from taking the
open shot in the last few games. YouVe
got to think about taking the shot
every time you touch the ball."
Cloudy said he was glad to help Iba
get his 100th win. He said he hadn't
realized it would be Iba's 100th victory
until it was announced over the public
address system with less than a min
ute to play.
Iba, Williams and Cloudy seemed to
be looking to Wednesday's game with
Iowa State at Ames. It will be the
Huskers first conference game while
Iowa State defeated Oklahoma
"I dont know if we're really ready (to
play the Cyclones)," Iba said. "I watched
the Iowa State-Iowa game. I'm not
sure if our team's good enough to play
Iowa State."
Iba said he is pleased with the Hus
kers 10-3 mark in non-conference
games. Two of the losses came at the
hands of Georgis Tech and Michigan
State in the Cotton States Classic.

Minnesota swimmers won 12 of 16 events Satur
day to defeat Nebraska. 84-56 in a women's dual
meet at the Bob Devaney Sports Center.
The loss was the Huskers second dual defeat
since a second place finish at the Souther Illinois
Invitational in December. Nebraska Coach Eay Hup
pert said it is not a cause for concern.
"It's a loss, and I do not like to lose," Huppert said.
"But I have to go back to what our goals were for the
season. One goal was to taper for the Southern Iili
nois meet, and I felt we did that. The ether is to win
the Bi3 Ef-ht meet. I felt the effort tonight was very
good, and we have a very, very fine swim team."
The Husker swimmers returned from an intensive
12-day training session in Florida on Wednesday,
Huppert said. That also had an effect on the team's
performance Saturday.
"We really worked the girls hard in Florida, harder
than we ever have before," Huppert said. "We came
back a little sore, and a little tired. Minnesota has a
fine program, and I think they came in here geared
to beat us."
Had Nebraska had another week to prepare,
Huppert said, the meet results may have been
different
Minnesota Coach Jean Freeman agreed. One of
J
the Gophers' hopes was that the Huskers would still
be worn down from the Florida training, she said.
"We did a little better than I expected us to " she
said. "We went down to Florida for training just 111.3
they did, but we got back a week earlier. I thought if
they responded like a team coming out cf training
should, we would have a decent chance to win here."
Two Gophers, Sue Hccll and Nancy Touve, swain
season h!hs in the 100 breaststroke, Freeman said.
Touve, who also placed second to teammate Cindy
Hovet in the 200 breastetroke, had not scored in any
previous meet.
"I also didnt expect Diane Walter (I linnecota) to
beat Dana Powers (Nebraska) in the CO L-ecctyt?"
Freeman said. "Mana I&kkala (400 individual med
ley) did better than we expected, nrd our diver
(Carol Libbesmekr) did better than he ever ha3
before."
Ubbesmeicr scored a 257.00 in the three-meter
dive to win that event, but Nebraska's Marcia Ilea
v ton won the one-meter with an identical score.
Heaton, Libbesmeier, and Huskers' Cathy Lundy
and Heidi Hecker qualified for the regional zone
competition with their Saturday scores.
Lundy and Hecker had qualified in previous
meets at the one-meter board, but diving coach Jeff
Iluber said he couldn't remember when three divers
qualified on the three-meter board.
"We've improved quite a lot since the beginning of
the year," Huber said.
While the rest of the team was in Florida, Huber
took his divers out to California for training. The trip
got the team some good competition against the
likes of USC and Brigham Young, Huber said, and
also helped relax them.
It also got them a short moment in the national
spotlight when Johnny Carson introduced them
while they were attending a taping of the Tonight
Show.
"Basically, we've just come to terms w ith our abil
ity. They're saying now, Tra good, but I've still got to .
work much harder,' " Huber said.
Heaton, who sat out last season with an. ankle
injury, had the best meet of her collegiate career.
Aside from Heaton, the only Husker victors were
Emily Eicktts in the 1650 and 500 freestyks and
Linda Sebesta in the 200 freestyle. Huppert singled
out Sebesta, a sophomore from Rochester, Minn.,
and Trischa Zorn, a freshman from Mission Viejo,
Calii as the best individual Husker performances.
Zorn finished second to Elyce Iwerks in the 200
backstroke and the 100 backstroke.
The Huskers will travel to Iowa City, la. and
Columbia, Mo. for meets r gainst the Hawkeyes and
Tirs Friday and Saturday.
"The main thing now is to get back in the daily
routine." Huppert eaid. "The yardage well see here
this week is much less than what well see on the
rcz That, &r.d getting lr.ck into the routine cf
cv.inimir.g and cksxs, should help us cerr.e down
(in toc3)."
.Another matter to look at after the Minnesota loss
vcj3 the tirr.es the Gopher r,vimmers won with,
Huppert said. According to the national rankings a3
cf December, the best Huckcr times would have
beaten any Gopher time in any event Minnesota
had no swimmers listed in the top times.
"You can look at that and see that we could have
won thb meet," Huppert said. "But, wejast couldnt
get anything going."
