NU gymnasts upset No. 1 rains

Everything went right for the Ne
braska men's gymnastics team Sunday
night as the Cornhuskers defeated top
ranked UCLA 283.80 to 278.65.
Nebraska, ranked fourth, swept the
first three places in the all-around as
Tom Schlesinger scored a career-high
57.80. Kevin Davis finished second with
a 57.55 and Neil Palmer finished third
with a 57.25.
Nebraska coach Francis Allen said
he was pleased with Nebraska's per
formance. The Huskers swept every
event from the Bruins.
"We predicted coming into this meet
that we would have to score at least a
47 in every event to beat them," Allen
said. "To tell you the truth I think
UCLA came in here thinking that they
would have no problem beating us."
In the first rotation, the Huskers got
off to a fast start as Davis scored a 9.70
and both Schlesinger and Palmer had
9.55s. That gave Nebraska a 47.45 to
46.95 lead.
Allen said the next event, pommel
horse, was the key event because UCLA
had previously posted the nation's
highest score on that event.
The Bruins started having problems
on the pommel horse when Mike Chap
lin fell and only scored an 8.85. Later in
the rotation, Tony Pineda, a 1984
member of Mexican Olympic team, fell
off the horse and scored a 9.10.
The Huskers on the pommel horse
continued to stay hot as Davis scored a
9.70 and Schlesinger and Palmer both
scored 9.6 to give a 1.5 lead over the
Bruins.
Allen said the key to winning the
meet was how well Davis performed in
his spot.
"Kevin is the quarterback of the
team," Allen said. "If he hits his event,
then there is usually a good chance
that Schlesinger and Palmer will hit
theirs."
Allen said the upperclassmen per
formed "crisp and clean" against the
Bruins. He said they are expected to
score over a 57 in the all-around.
In the next two rotations, the
Huskers continued to build their lead
as Schlesinger scored a 9.55 on still
rings and a 9.50 in vault to give the
Huskers . a 142.35 to 140.40 midway
through the meet.
Allen said that once the Huskers got
into the fifth and sixth rotation that he
knew the meet was locked up.
On the parallel bars both Schlesin
ger and Palmer had career bests.
Schlesinger scored a 9.80 despite fal
ling on his dismount, and Palmer
scored a 9.70.
Next weekend, the Huskers will
travel to Tucson Ariz., to compete in
the Southwest Cup Invitational. They
will meet UCLA, Arizona State and
Ohio State.
"We might have peaked a little too
soon but I'm happy with the score,"
Allen said. "We still haven't beaten
Oklahoma yet and next week we have
to compete against UCLA again."
The Huskers next home meet will be
on March 28 against Southern Illinois.
