The Hu:kers were within six when
Alter o, who was on hi3 way to a season
high 23 points, attempted to shoot over
Marshall in the right corner. Marshall
nude sure the Wildcat senior didn't get
the shot ofj, but wns called for his first
foul of the game.
On the lnbounds play, Een Mitchell's
pass got to Alfcro. Once eg?in, Alfaro
leaped to shoot. Once again, Marshall
flew in to block it. In the next instant,
Alfaro wa3 flat on his back and "almost
knocked out," he would say later, and
Marshall waa ejected from the gane.
The ftegr?nt foul was a 'Referee's ,
decision," Ibasaid. Marshall refused to
talk about it.
"We weren't talking at all," Alfaro
said. "Just s.11 of sudden he ccme3 up
and 1 just got plcvxd. He went right at
my nose," he said.
Winston was a little mors emphatic
in Ma criticism cf the play.
"From what I iw, I th!r.k it was si
good call h3 got threvra cut on," he
said. "He w'r.t for Ten, r ot the ball. It

was a flagrant foul."
Alfaro made two technical free throws
to put K-State back up by eight, but
Nebraska's Demetrioii3 Buchannon and
Carr hit back-to-back jumpers from
outside to cut it to four. The game
swayed back and forth from six to four
point Wildcat leads until Hoppen
banked a 10-footer in with just under
eight, minutes to play to make it 51-49.
But the Huskers couldn't get closer
as the Cats matched baskets and started
a steady procession to the free throw
line. However, it was a missed free
throw that Winston saw as the turning
point. .
Elder had hit the first end of a one-and-one
with the score 55-53. Kis second
bounced off the right side cf the rim
and came down between two Huskers
and to Tyrone Jackson, who laid it up
and in. The Cat 3 led by five and four
minut83 to go.
"I thought that was the pivotal
play" Winston said. "I saw scrrcthirg
in their eyes and I knew they thcr.-gl.t
they could do it.
"They made the tough plays tonight.
All we've talked about the whole week
was making the big piay3, and being a
man."
K-State took a five-point lead with
free throws before Carr turned over a
pass to K-State's Mark Bohra. Bohrn
passed ahead to Alfaro, who missed a
running lay up attempt.
Cut Curtis Moore was called for tra
veling on the rebound after he was
poked in the eye. The Cat3 then ate 39
seconds oft the clock before Bohm was
fouled. His two free throws gave K
State a seven point lead with 1:03 left
and the Cats held on the rest of the
game.
"We played hard for 49 minutes,"
Winston said. "I can't emphasize enough
that we've got more than one cr two
guys playing, we're a pretty good team.
We showed that tonight."

R1ANHATTAN, Kan. Kansas State,
led by the scoring and rebounding of
guard3 Cassandra Jones and Carlisa
Thomas, overcame a one-point half
time deficit &nd a career-high scoring
performance of Angie Miller to defeat
the Nebraska women's basketball tesni, .
87-78 Saturday.
The Lady Cats, now 4-8 in conference
play and 13-10 overall, avenged a 74-67
less to the Huskers without the servi
ces of leading scorer Jennifer Jones,
who was sidelined with a fractured jaw.
I'm sure they had the revenge factor
going for them," Nebraska Ccaeh Kelly
Hill said. "They didn't think they played
well against us earlier in the year up in
Lincoln."
Miller, a sophomore from Clatonia,
"scored 18 of her 80 points in the second
half. The scoring burst surpassed her
previous Mgh of 27 she scored against
CreightcR' earlier this season.
Miller sank 13 of 19 shots from the
field and pulled down team-high eight
rebounds in 32 minutes. Maurtice Ivy, a
freshman from Omaha, was the only
Husker to join Miiler in double figures
with 16 poii.ts.
But the combination cf Jones and
Thomas proved to bs too muck for the
Huskers, who dropped to 3-7 in the
conference and 8-15 overall
Jones, a 5-7 junior from Ft. Lauder
dale, Fla., scored 12 of her 21 points
during K-State's second half surge
while Thomas added 14 points and
pulled down a game-high 13 rebounds
before foiling out with 1:18 remaining.
Thomas missed the previous meeting
between the tivo teams after un&
dental surgery.
"I think Carlisa might have felt a
littls pressure to carry the load since
Jennifer was out of the lineup," Kill
said.
Nebraska held a 24-14 lead with 7:05
remaining in the first half, following a
Cathy Owen 15-foot jump shot.
The Lady Cats slowly chipped away
at the lead and pulled ahead 32-31 on a
follow shot by forward Shelia Hubert.
Senior forward Terri Prriott gave the
Huskers a 33-32 half-time lead when
she hit a layup with 12 seconds remain
ing in the half.
"We got outhustled in the first ha!f;"
X-State Coach Matilda Willis said. "We
were lucky to be down only one at half
time. Nebraska was beating us up and
down the floor pretty good and they
scored four or five layups against us on
the fast break."
The Lady Cats regained a lead they
never relinquished with 17:29 remaining
on a three-point play by center Sue
Leiding. Willis said she was pleased
with the squad's defensive efforts in
the second halt
"Nebraska is a scrappy team. They're
not big, but they're strong and they go
after every loose ball," Willis said. "We
allowed them to do that too much in
the first hair
Hill said neither a man-to-man or a
zone defense could stop the Lady Cats
in the second half.
"K-State shot extremely well in the
second half," Hill said. "We tried to go
with a man-to-man defense on them
and they went inside. When we went to
a zone their people started hitting irom
the outsUe."
