Huskers stop OSU's streak; split four-game series By Jeff Apel Senior Reporter Nebraska's baseball team didn't gain anything, but they didn't lose anything in splitting a four-game series wit h Big Eight opponent Oklahoma State last weekend. The Huskers split double headers Sat urday (6-2, 6-1 0) and Sunday (12-11, 8-15). In Sunday's first game, the Huskers used the combination of a late-inning homerun by Rich King and game-winning run by John Franklin off a bases loaded walk to post the victory. In t he second game, Oklahoma State jumped on Nebraska pitcher Kip Gross for six runs in the first inning and eased to victory. On Saturday, The Huskers Phil Har rison snapped the Cowboy's 30 game winning streak when he struck out a season-high 15 Cowboys. In the second game Oklahoma State broke open a scoreless contest scorht 9 of the 10 runs in the fourth and fifth innings. The Huskers were eliminated from the Big Eight conference title race because of two losses to Oklahoma State and conference leader Oklaho ma's four-game sweep of Missouri. But Nebraska baseball coach John Sanders said he was happy with the Corn husker's performance in the weekend series. "The games were stretched to the limit," Sanders said. "You're looking at a ball club who had a 30 game winning streak and we took that away from them. That's important." Sanders said Nebraska's pair of vic tories over the No. 7 Cowboys is partic ularly important as Nebraska heads into a weekend series against Missouri. For the Huskers to finish second in the Big Eight, Nebraska must sweep the Tigers and Oklahoma State lose three of four games to Iowa State, or Nebraska take three of four games from the Tigers and the Cowboys drop four games to the Cyclones.

Jacobshagen, a Kansas native, is a professor of art at UNL. James Winn was born in Missouri and now works in Sycamore, 111. Gallery hours are noon to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday, 2 to 9 p.m. Sunday, and 7 to 9 p.m. Thurs day through Saturday. Admission is free. "The Big Eight is becoming a short season for us," Sanders said. On Sunday, Nebraska took the first step toward the Big Eight tournament with a 12-11 win over the Cowboys. Nebraska jumped an 8-0 lead tagging Cowboy starting pitcher Jimmy Long for eight runs in three innings. But a potent offense and relief pitch ing by Steve Lienhard helped Okla homa State rally to an 1 1-10 lead going into the bottom of tlte ninth. A homerun by King in the last of the ninth then tied the game at 11-1 1. In the bottom of the 12th, Nebraska's John Franklin drew a bases-loaded walk off the Cowboy's Gordie Dillard for the Husker victory. Franklin was familiar with Dillard since the two athletes were both at Hartnell Community College in Carmel, Calif. Sanders said t hat he chose Frank lin as a pinch hitter for defensive purposes. "We pride ourselves on playing inning by inning," he said. In Sunday's second game, the 43-12 Cowboys took an early 6-0 lead to 1 2-2 in the fourth inning when Brad Piobin son hit a grand slam off John Lepley. Nebraska cut Oklahoma State's lead to 12-6 with four runs in the bottom of the sixth, but the Cowboys took a pair of runs in both the sixth and seventh innings. "You can see the difference in atti tude when you are in the front side," Oklahoma State coach Gary Ward said. On Saturday, Harrison became Nebras ka's single season, strike out leader when his fifteen Cowboy strikeouts gave him 92 for the season. That mark was good enough to pass former Husker pitcher Bob Sebra, who recorded 90 strike outs in the 1981 season. rats JEWELERS ,A0' CELEBRA TION The Best Diamonds at the Best Prices ... 15ct....$195C0 Wright's annual celebration through the month of May with the finest values throughout both Wright's locations. - 14 ct. o Ml00 M.f mJ (Quantities Limited) Downtown 13th & P JEWELERS "Gateway" at Ben Simon's The Best Diamonds at the Best Prices . . . 12 ct i ...... ?.1925 (Quantities Limited)
