over Nebraska might have been a bless

"I know no one's going to believe
this, but Dehrenda (James) is actually
a better jumper than Denise
(Derrieux)," Halterman said "Derdss
has limited jumping ability. She can
.only jump about a foot high while
Dahendra, being the tremendous athlete
she is, has unlimited j umping ability."
Despite her "limited jumping ability,"
Derrieux was able to outjump Powell
and slap the ball into backcourt.
With time running out, the Corn

to the loose ball and passed to teammate
Cathy Owen.

her personal best of 22-4 14.
"I felt a little off," Thacker said. "I
feci I can do a let better than I did
today. This is really the first meet I've
Jumped in all year."
The meet, honoring Nebraska's late
track coach Frank Sevigne, brought
together some of the most outstanding
coli?hte performers in the nation. No
team scores were kept in the meet.
In the men's C 0-yard dash, Nebraska's
Jones missed qualifying for the NCAA
championships by .02 seconds. He
defeated Missouri's Chidi Imoh with a

a five point 20-24 half-time lead. Powell
paced Nebraska with 22 points, which

OSU led by 10 with two minutes to
play before a late Husker rally that

Pepin said he wants to see Jones make
the national field.
"By the time the conference meets
rolls around we think he'il be able to
qualify," Pepin said. "If he doesn't
make it there, we might send him to a
post-conference meet."
Nebraska qualified several members
of its women's team for the NCAA
championships. The three-time national
indoor champions had seven people
meet the NCAA qualifying standards.
Pepin said he still hopes a couple cf
other members of the women's team
reach qualifying marks.
