Kicker's confidence
revived by success
KLEIN from Page 7
Nebraska coach Tom Osborne said Klein had over
come his slump on his own.
"We talked to Dale a lot of times, but it s some
thing a guy has to work out by himself."
Klein, a soccer-style kicker, said he had some help
setting the records. Clete Blakeman, a reserve quar
terback who holds on field goals and extra points,
was a key, Klein said.
"A soccer-style kicker always likes to have the ball
straight up and faced forward," he said. "Clete always
does a good Job of that."
Nebraska's blocking and center Mark Cooper s
quick snaps were also factors, Klein said.
"1 took a little more time (to kick) today," he said.
Klein's first field goal was a 32-yarder that gave
Nebraska a 3-0 lead with 7:27 left in the first quarter.
He said that first kick gave him the momentum to do
well the rest of the game.
"I started off with a couple of short ones, he said.
"They were almost like extra points. It's essential for
a kicker to start good.
"This is the most confidence I've had In a game,
ever."
A 44-yard field goal with 8:29 to play in the first half
was Klein's longest of his career.
Kicking so many field goals caught Klein by
surprise.
"I thought we'd score more points, he said. I
-thought I'd be kicking a lot more extra points than
field goals."
Taylor leads
JY Huskers
to 49-6 win
By Chuck Green
Staff Reporter . '
Nebraska's junior varsity football"
team improved its season record to 3-0
Friday, when the Cornhuskers defeated
Waldorf Colle'ge 49-6 at Memorial
Stadium.
Waldorf ended the Cornhusker win
ning streak at 24 games a year ago.
"It was another game of big plays,"
m j?oach Dan Young said. "I thought we ;
' " played well throughout the game, ;
although we did have some execution
problems in the first half."
The Huskers overcame first-quarter
penalties and mistakes to score 28
points in the second quarter.
The first touchdown came with 12:36
remaining in the half, when quarter
back Steve Taylor wove his way through
the Waldorf defense, broke three tack
les and stretched in for the 22-yard
score.
"When Steve gets one-on-one with
people, he wins about 99 percent of the
time," Young said.
On the ensuing kickoff, Waldorf
kick-returner Ron Pinkleton fumbled.
Jay Schell fell on the ball, giving the
Huskers a first-and-10 at the Waldorf
27-yard line. Six plays later, Taylor ran
2 yards for his second score of the
afternoon.
Then it ws Richard Bell's turn.
After a Waldorf punt, Taylor faked a
handoff into the line at his own 17, set
up and hit Bell at the Waldorf 43. A
footrace followed, with Bell completing
the 83-yard touchdown play untouched.
Just 13 seconds later, after another
Waldorf fumble, Taylor got his fourth
touchdown of the quarter, a 16-yard
pass to tight end Bump Novacek.
Tayor finished the day with 1 20 yards
and two passing touchdowns, complet
ing four of eight passes and having one
interception.
The biggest play of the game came
early in the third quarter after a 7-yard
Waldorf touchdown run.
Comerback Charles Fryar fielded
the kickoff five yards deep in his own
endzone and decided to bring it out
"Usually, anywhere from five yards
deep in the endzone , I'll bring it out,"
Fryar said.
Fryar said he looked for tackle Kent
Wells to "point the way" for him. Wells
did, and Fryar was off to the races for an ,
unofficial 105-yard touchdown return.
"Charles Fryar returning that kick
off for a touchdown really got the
momentum back on our side," Young
said.
Fryar is the cousin of former Husker
Ail-American Irving Fryar, the wing
back of the 1983 backfield.
Taylor scored another touchdown
from 30 yards at the beginning of the
fourth quarter and wingback Steve
Schneider closed out the scoring on a
9 -yard run with :57 remaining.
