OMAIIA Unable to shake the second-game
blues, Nebraska split a baseball double-header with
Creighton at Rosenblatt Stadium W cdncsday.
Blue ay pitcher Dave Hartnetp earned his second
win over the Buskers this season in a seven-hit 4-2
Creighton victory. Nebraska won the opener 1 1-0 in
a game shortened to seven innings by the ten-run
rule.
"We've got no excuse," Nebraska coach John
rt -f 1 1 I ' I- 1 -J TU
banaers saia ancr ine loss, which uiupptu ixcuiao
ka's record to 39-13. "I don't know. I'm not into
psychological mind games., If there was a lack of
concentration from the blowout, that's no excuse."
Wednesday was the third time in its last four
double-headers that Nebraska lost the second game
after winning the first. The Huskers had split four
games w ith Oklahoma in that manner last weekend.
Creighton staked Hartnetp to a two run cushion
in the first inning, sided by a two-out error by first
baseman Mike Duncan. John Schnaible and Tim
Osgood followed with singles. Osgood's scoring Eric
Campbell, then shortstop Jeff Carter bcbblad a ball
hit by Brad Zach. Schnaible scored on the play.
Two tag-outs of Nebraska runners at home by
catcher Andy Holt held the Huskers second-inning
rally to one run. After Bill McGuire scored on an
error by Creighton shortstop Elvis Dominquez, Kurt
Eubanks was thrown out by first baseman Osgood.
Team aims lor mdwicatai wins-
By JefT Browns .
Only a rash of upsets could push,
the UNL men's tenni3 team ahead in
the Big Eight standings. But team
members hope to capture a couple
of individual titles at the Big Eight
tournament today and Friday, at
Woodside, Kan.
Coach Kerry McDermott said last
year's conference meet was difUcult
on his team because they were ex
pected to do fairly well. They placed
third.
Nebraska is in fifth place entering
this weekend's action with 23 team
points. Oklahoma State is on top
with 5 1 , followed by Oklahoma, Kan
sas and Colorado.
McDermott said Jim Carson should
be seeded second or third in No. 5
singles play. Carson and Craig John
son may be seeded first in No. 1
doubles competition.
McDermott said that, realistically,
the best UNL probably will do as a
team is fourth plaCe, nudging out
Colorado. The Buffaloes lead Neb
raska by three points in overall
league play.
But McDermott said there is no
reason to limit team expectations,
although the fifth-place standing is
a disappointment.
"The competition is so close that if
there's a couple of upsets in the
tournament, we can take Colorado,"
he said. "The guys are going to try to
go in to win individual titles."
Carson enters the meet with a 13
9 record. His doubles record with
Johnson stands at 14-6. The duo
must wiit. the Big Eight meet im-
pressively, McDermott said, in order
for them to advance to the NCAA
Tournament in May.
McDermott said the team's loss.
Saturday to Kansas came as a real
blow.
"Kansas has been playing real
well," McDermott said. "We've never
lost to Kansas as a team before. I
thought we played well against
Kansas, though. It was our best
match of the year."

score on Carter's single. .
A second-Inning scoring error by McGuire set up
Creihton's third run, but Nebraska r;:ain pulled to
within one on Paul Meyers' third inning homer.
Meyers was stranded st third base in the fifth
inning in Nebraska's last scoring threat.
The Biuejays added a run in the fifth on three
singes and a throwing error by Carter.
Hartnetp exhibited excellent control, walking only
two and striking out three. "I just said a few prayers
before I took the mound and then during the game,"
he said with a laugh.
Nebraska had the laugh in the first game as it sent
eight men to the plate in a five-run first inning.
Consecutive doubles by Scott Hooper and Myers
precede a walk, a McGuire double and a Eubanks
single that scored two runs Hadcliffa doubled in the
final run, but was thrown out at third base while
trying to stretch the hit.
With the wind blowing out to left field throughout
the game, McGuire and Bill Hendricks collected
long-awaited home runs.
' - McGuire's solo homer in the third, resulted from
the Omaha Creighton Prep graduate being more
aggressive in hitting. "I just felt I haven't been
aggressive, and I tried to turn on the ball today," the
Husker catcher said.
Hendricks' three run drive was the first of the year
for the SO-year-old Husker, and came during a sev
. enth inning pinch hitting appearance. In nine games
against Creighton, Hendricks has batted .480 with
16 runs batted in. -
Hoepcr stole two bases to surpass the Big Eight
single season record, set last season by Jim Wale
wander of Iowa State. The Husker senior now has 48
steals in 52 attempts.
Harrison, in picking up his tenth win, set a
Nebraska single season record for victories. The
Husker freshman settled down after walking the
bases full in the first inning and recorded a one hit
shutout.
Creighton, whose coach Dave Underwood resigned
earlier this week, is now 18-14.
Nebraska plays Wichita State in a 1 p.m. double
header today at Buck Beltzer Field.
