Pittsburgh volleyball coach
Shelton Collier raced his red pen
across the Panther slat book for
the last time of the 1934 season.
Pittsburgh had lost in three sets
to Nebraska, taking the seventh
ranked Huskers to an extended
18-16 game in the last set. Nebra
ska would move on to face West
ern Michigan, a four-set winner
over Illinois State. Pittsburgh had
nowhere to go but home.
"We had several chances to win
that last set . . .more than a few
opportunities," Collier said. "If we
had, who knows what could have
happened?" But Nebraska came
back on each one and played
tough. We were making adjust- because, Collier said, "when you're
raents, but Nebraska a4jused to down two sets, you've get to try
that too something new."
The Huskers won the first two
sets 1 5-6, 1 5-1 0 and didnt look to
be in much trouble before the last
set. That's when Pittsburgh start
ed to play like the team that had
won 13 of its last 14 matches and
jumped to a 9-6 lead behind the
serving of its two seniors Cathy
Rupp and Ulana Kchutiak.
The reason for the advantage
was a Pittsburgh rotation switch
and momentum, said Nebraska
coach Terry Pettit. The Panthers
just started doing things the way
they were used to, Collier said.
The Panthers started rotating
its line up in the third game
In response, Pettit went to his
bench more, putting in Michelle
Smith for Julie Hermann, and
little-used freshman Jenny GcU
for one of hb setters, Mary Buysse.
That left Cathy Ncth to run a 5-1
(single-setter) attack that the
Huskers havent run regularly in
four years.
With the score tied at 1 1. Nebra
ska took the lead when Hermann
got a tap past the Pitt block on a
play set up when Buysse thwarted
a Panther short set and spike
with a single-fist save. The advan
tage wavered from one side to the
other until Pitt had the serve
with a 14-13 lead.
The server was Rupp, who had
already burned the Nebraska de
fense for six service aces.
"I was telling everybody this
week that that was the best server
in the nation," Pettit said That
serve doesn't act like a serve . . .it
acts like a backcourt attack. You
just gut it out, get anything under
the ball and get it up."
This time, Hermann did dig out
the fast-dropping serve near cen
ter court. After a Pitt return,
Hermann saved the point with a
kilL Nebraska scored the nest
two points of the match, but lost
their chance to win when one of
the Pitt reserves, Pat Belcher, got
her ninth epike cf the match
between the tleek.
'Annie Adamcz&k hit the r.cit
spike attempt long for another
tie at 15-15. Then, Enid Cchcne
wi:e hit a set leng to give Pitt
another chance to win tX 16-15.
But, freshman Louise
CChau2hn33V hit the sen's long.
Nebraska didnt waste that chsnce.
Schonewise and Karen Dahlren
blacked a Kchutbk spike Into the
Pitt forecourt for point 1 6. Eehcne
wise slammed a kill cffKrb West
ell's shoulder for point 17, then
Dahlren placed a kill to the left
of the Pitt defense for the final
point.
