Softball sweep will brnoti NU into fame
By Rich Cooper
Staff Reporter
Nebraska soflbail coach Ron Wol
forth said he expects a tough game
Saturday, when Iowa State comes into
Lincoln for a Big Eight Conference
doubleheader at the Nebraska Softball
Complex. The games are scheduled to
start at 1 and 3 p.m.
Nebraska, 26-9 and ranked No. 4 in
the NCAA is 2-2 in the Big Eight, and
Iowa State is 21-20 overall, 3-1 in the
Big Eight, and second place behind
undefeated Kansas.
Wolforth said that the last few times
the Cornhuskers have met the Cyclones
the games have been very close. Because
of this, he said, an intense rivalry has
developed.
"I can tell you right now there is no
love lost between these two teams,"
Wolforth said. "I think the reason for
that is because we have dominated
them for so long I think they are almost
possessed with beating us."
Against Iowa State, the Huskers
have won six of the last seven games.
The last time Nebraska lost to Iowa
State was Sept. 21 in a 2-1 decision in
Lincoln. In the fall season the Huskers
won 6-2 in Lawrence, Kan., and at the
Road Runner Classic last March in Los
Cruces, N.M., Nebraska won 1-0.
Wolforth said Nebraska and Iowa
State match up well because both
teams play the same style of Softball.
"Iowa State plays a lot like us," Wol
forth said. "Their pitchers throw the
ball hard, their hitters are very aggres
sive, and they are a solid defensive
team. They are definitely not intimi
dated by us. We do better against hard
throwing pitchers and both our pitchers
throw the ball very hard."
Wolforth said Iowa State probably
will use senior pitcher Kelli Alberts in
both games. She is 13-5 this season and
32-17 in her career.
Nebraska will counter with Lori Sip
pel in the first game and Donna Dear
dorff in the second, Wolforth said. Sip
pel has won seven consecutive games
and has allowed only one unearned run
in her last 5 1 23 innings for an earned
run average of 20.
Deardorff has pitched 36 innings
without allowing an earned run and has
an ERA of .29. She is coming off last
weekend's home-opener victory against
Missouri, in which she allowed only one
hit.
Wolforth said he hopes that his team
has finally come out of its batting
slump. In practice this week, he said,
Jane Kremer, Margie Ogrodowicz, Janelle
Frese and Lori Richins have been hit
ting well.
Nebraska is now 16-0 in games in
which they have scored first in the first
inning. In 35 games, the Huskers have
outscored their opponents 31-6 in the
first inning and 107-40 overall.
Wolforth said the doubleheader
against the Cyclones could be the turn
ing point for Nebraska.
"This is the most critical series of
the season for us," Wolforth said. "If we
sweep Iowa State, then we will be on
our way, but if they sweep us we're
going to be in a hole and have to dig
ourselves out. So much is riding on this
series."
Tenuis teams to meet Jaylaawlss
By Mark Derowitsch
Staff Reporter
Despite its 15-7 dual record, the
Nebraska men's tennis team is in for a
stiff challenge today against the Kan
sas Jayhawks.
Kansas takes a 16-10 dual record into
the match. Assistant coach Michael
Center said the Jayhawks are confident
about the match and next weekend's
Big Eight Tournament.
"We have a very good chance to win
the Big Eight Tournament," Center
said. "We've beaten everyone in our
region and we have the talent to win
the tournament, so we must go out and
prove it. We see ourselves as the
favorites."
But Center also said that the Jay
hawks aren't taking the Huskers lightly.
"They always play very well against
us," Center said. "I think that they are
a very good team and it is very critical
for us to do good, to keep pace with
Oklahoma State.
"Everyone needs to concentrate on
themselves and not get caught up with
the Big Eight Tournament next week
end. If we think about Oklahoma State
and the tournament, we could be in a
lot of trouble."
Coach Kerry McDermott isn't count
ing the Huskers out, either.
"We're still in the thick of the Big
Eight race, but the Kansas dual is
really important, he said. "If we can
beat the Jayhawks that would be great,
but we need to win at least three or four
of the nine matches."
One key match will be the No. 1
singles between Steven Jung and Mike
Wolf of Kansas. Jung was named Big
Eight player of the week for his victory
against the defending conference cham
pion. "If Steven can beat Wolf it would
give him a good shot at the No. 1 seed in
the Big Eight Tournament," McDer
mott said. "I'm expecting a great
match between those two."
Wolf is a three-time NCAA qualifier
and has 10-4 record this spring.
"Mike Wolf is capable of beating
anyone," Center said. "He's playing
real well right now and he's excited
about winning the Big Eight as a team.
He set goals earlier this year to win the
Big Eight in both singles and doubles."
The women's team also will be in
action this weekend when Nebraska
faces Kansas State on Friday and Kan
sas on Saturday. The Huskers take a
4-15 record into weekend play.
The Jayhawks have finished second
in the Big Eight the last two years.
Kansas will be led by Tracy Treps,
who won the No. 1 singles title last
year, and Jeanette Jonsson, who won
the No. 2 singles title last year.
The Wildcats have a 6-8 dual record.

Are those long walks
to class wearing
on your feet?
Dr. Paul Klawitter
Ambulatory
Foot-Ankle Clinic
Says:
THINK OF YOUR FOOT FUNCTIONING VERY
SIMILAR TO THE FRONT END OF YOUR CAR.
When your car's out of alignment
The tires wear out
Uneven stress is placed on the frame
The steering wheel begins to shake
Soon the car functions so badly, you can't drive it
THE MISALIGNED FOOT DOES THE SAME THING.
Pressures develop and trouble starts immediately
Bones move against bones
Ligaments become stretched
Soon the entire alignment of your entire body is faulty
SYMPTOMS OF FAULTY FOOT FUNCTION
localized foot pain
then bunions, corns, and calluses
before long, pain in the knees
hip pain, leg cramps
back pain
and even neck pain-headaches
fatigue
YOU JUST HURT ALL OVER!
WHAT CAN YOU DO?
Call Dr. Paul Klawitter and Associates at Ambulatory
Foot and Ankle Clinic for free consultation or exam
through the months of April and May.
