Former Busker may run in Olympics
GEORGE from Page 10
When George, w ho is from Lagos,
Nigeria, arrived at Nebraska, the
competition level was a little too
tough for him, Pepin said.
“I encouraged (George) to go to
school at Wichita because he had a
better chance to compete at that
level,” Pepin said. “He tried real hard
in athletics and academics here, and I
knov/ he’s done a good job (at W ich i ta
State) and helped their team. He’s also
done real well academically down
there.”
Komclson said the Shockers were
pleased to hear that George wanted to
transfer.
“Gary Pepin called me to see if we
were interested,” Komclson said.
“We definitely were.”
George, a senior, said there was no
single reason he decided to transfer to
Wichita State. But he said the transfer
was good for him.
“I’m really glad I did transfer,”
George said. “1 just found myself in
Wichita.”
Komclson said George has ad
justed to American collegiate compe
tition and has excelled in the past two
seasons.
Kornelson said George, who won
the Missouri Valley Conference 400
mctcr dash indoor championship last
year, is even better this season.
George ran a 21.9 in the 200 and a 6.3
in the 55 in practice this season.
“This is by far his best year,” Kor
nelson said. “He’s just kind of settled
into things. He’s just more comfort
able with training and everything
else.”
George competed in the 55 in
Saturday’s quadrangular at the Bob
Devaney Sports Center between Ne
braska, Barton (Kan.) County Col
lege, Drake and Wichita State. He
won his trial heat in 6.43 seconds, but
finished second with a 6.40 to
Nebraska’s Mark Perry in the finals.
George scratched out of the 300 after
he pulled a muscle in his right leg in
the 55 finals.
George said he ran middle-dis
tance races at Nebraska, but he now
likes sprinting better. He said he has
no hard feelings against either Pepin
or Nebraska.
“I really liked him,” Pepin said.
“He’s a nice guy and I really enjoyed
having him here.”
George said the main differences
between Nebraska and Wichita State
arc the weather and training facilities.
“(Nebraska’s) facilities are a lot
better,” George said, “but I think we
have some good things to work with in
Wichita, too. Also.it’salotwarrnerin
Wichita.”
George said he may compete in the
1988 Olympics for Nigeria.
“It depends on how my indoor and
outdoor seasons go,” George said.
