After spotting Nebraska a 6-0 lead
on a forfeit to Matt Campbell, the
third-ranked Arizona State wrestling
team roared back to defeat the
Cornhuskers 29-14 Tuesday night at
the Bob Devaney Sports Center
The Sun Devils won seven of the
next eight matches after the forfeit to
take a commanding 29-8 lead with
one match remaining.
Arizona State, which has a dual
Thursday at Stillwater, Okla. with
Oklahoma State, also forfeited the
heavyweight match to Nebraska All
American Gary Albright.
"1 definitely expected for us to get
beat," Nebraska coach Bob Fehrs
said. "You have to have a realistic
attitude going into things. We came
back and we tried to fight them but
they're just a little better of a team
than us."
ASU's Gary Bairos defeated
Nebraska's Terry Cook 9-7, scoring
three escapes in the third period. The
oun Devils' Jim Lefebure decisloned
Mike Monfore 5-3 at 134 and ASU's
Adam Cohen defeated Bill Ferrie by
the same score at 142.
At 150, Sun Devil Eddie Urbano
scored a 12-3 decision against
William Taylor.
The lone bright spot on the mat for
the Huskers was Jeff Coltvet's draw
with Jim Gressley at 158. Coltvet
fought back from a 5-0 first period
lead. It was the kind of performance
Fehrs said he was looking for. v
"Jeff got behind but he fought
back," Fehrs said. "We have to look
for little victories like that."
Arizona State got back on the
winninglrack at 167 when Tom
Draheim outpointed Lyndon Ruhnke
14-4. That win gave the Sun Devils a
19-8 lead.
Thomas Kolopas ran the Arizona
State unbeaten string to seven with a
14-4 decision against Cody Olson at
177.
Mike Davies finished the night for
ASU with a 20-5 victory against Craig
Thalken at 190.

Arizona State
Nebraska basketball teams meet KSU tonight
Schedule aids KSU cagers
By Corey Anderson
Sta& Reporter
When Kansas State's women's
basketball team comes to Lincoln
today to face Nebraska, it may lack
the services of its leading rebounder
and starting center, Carlisa Thomas, f
Thomas, a 5-10 sophomore from
Jacksonville, Fia., suffered a mouth
i&jury recently and is expected to
miss tonight's contest. First-year
coach Matilda Willis said summer
college transfer Shelia Hubert will
probably start in place of Thomas.
Willis has guided Kansas State to
a 94 mark. Their road schedule has
included tough teams like Illinois
State, Texas, Louisiana State and
Louisiana Tech.
"I think our team is where we
want it to be now," Willis said.
Willis said the Jones girls (Cas
sandra and Jennifer, who are not
related) "are doing the little things"
that have helped them emerge as
the team leaders on a squad with no
seniors. Between them, they average
36 points and nine rebounds a
game. Jennifer tallied 22 points and
eight rebounds in a 71-64 win over
Creighton last Saturday in Manhat
tan, Kan. Jones also scored 33
against Northern Illinois.
Willis realizes Nebraska "doesn't
have a lot of size, but they make up
fer it with epeed and jdckness."
Freshman Maurtlce Ivy, whom Wil
lis tried to recruit, has been impres
sive for Nebraska, Willis said.
Although the Ron-conference
season is now history, Willis said,
"It's still pretty hard to guage"
who's going to challenge for the
conference title.
The Big Eight Conference is very
tough from the top to the bottom "
Willis said. "All of the schools have
made strong commitments to
women's basketball"
Kansas State has won four con
ference championships in nine years,
won 20 or more games each season
for the past 12 yens and appeared
in 11 post season national tourna
ments in the last 13 years.
Willis hasn't lowered her expec
tations after losing four non-conference
games. "We're still very
opt:mistic,",she said.; .,

Kansas State's men's basketball team
opens its Big Eight season tonight
against Nebraska after losing four of its
last seven games. They also are playing
without Coach Jack Hartman.
Hartmar. underwent quadruple bypass
heart surgery Sunday afternoon, just 24
hours after he coached the Wildcats to
a 56-55 home court loss to No. 11
ranked Oregon State at home. He
complained of chest pains early Sunday
morning and was rushed to a nearby
hospital.
The Wildcats, 9-4, started the non
conference season on a hot streak,
winning their first six games and upset
ting Marquette, 55-54, on the road.
Nebraska Coach Moe Iba said the
Wildcats should play well, despite
coming off a loss.
"This is their first conference game,"
Iba said. "I'm sure they'll try to bounce
back against us. This should be one
heck of a ball game."
K-State's trademark is an aggressive,
3-2 zone defense. The Wildcats held
Kusker Center Dave Hoppen to his
three lowest point totals last season.
Iba said the 3-2 zone rotates into a
2-1-2 when Hoppen is in the game.
"Basically they play a 2-1-2 when
. they drop their middle man back to
cover Hoppen," Iba said. "But he moves
up and plays high post too."
K-State bounced the Huskers from
the Big Eight post season tourney in
the first round last year with a 41-39
win in Lincoln. Iba said he sees an
improved Wildcat team this season.
"I've seem them play on film," Iba
said. "They're a lot better than they
were last year."
Several different players have started
for Kansas State this season, and the
scoring duties have passed from player
to player. Forward Eddie Elder, 6-9,
leads the team with a 12.4 scoring
average, but Iba said he is more
concerned about Elder's 7.1 rebound
average.
"Elder is a strong inside player," Iba
said. "He is a strong rebounder and
we'll have to check out well to keep
him off the boards."
Senior Tom Alfaro, 6-6, has been in
and out of the lineup after suffering
from the flu and tonsilitis. Alfaro was
an honorable mention All-Big Eight
player last season and led the team in
field goal percentage.
Junior college transfer Joe Wright is
also expected to start against the
Huskers. The 6-3 guard averaged 21.5
points per game and earned second
team J.C. All-American honors.
Wright's running mate is 5-10 senior
Mark Bohm. Bohm broke into the starting
lineup as a junior and assumes the role
of playmaker on the squad.
The new man in the starting lineup
is 6-9 freshman center Ron Meyer.
Meyer was an honorable mention All
American when he played for Wichita
South High School in Wichita, Kan.
Forwards Tyrone Jackson, Alex
Williams, Ben Mitchell and senior guard
Eric Watson all cracked the starting
five and have seen extensive action.
Jackson and Mitchell started last
season, and Watson is the team's third
leader scorer with a 9.7 average.
