NCAA title, Olympics are Husker’s goals BRYAN from page 9 thing I could do the rest of my life. 1 love to do it.” Bryan said that every time he moved up to a another level of diffi culty, he had to change gymnasiums to Icam new techniques. By the time he was 10, Bryan was a member of the Junior National Team. Nebraska coach Francis Allen said Bryan has the distinction of being on the Junior National Team longer then anyone else. “He is one of those kids that grew up in the gym,” Allen said. Allen met Bryan for the first time during a teaching clinic in Hubcrton, Kan. “Every time I went to Hubcrton to teach a clinic, I would use Brad as my demonstrator,” Allen said. ‘‘He was a good demonstrator because healways did everything right. So, ever since he was a little kid, I’ve watched him develop into a national-caliber gym nast.” Two years before he signed with Nebraska, Bryan said, he moved to Albuquerque to train in the same gym as current teammate Ted Dimas. Allen said Dimas and Bryan come from the best gym in the country. “Ed Birch, the coach down there, is one of the best junior coaches in the country,” Allen said. “He has several kids that he coached that are on full ride scholarships.” Bryan said he wanted to attend Nebraska ever since he watched the Huskers win their second consecutive NCAA Championship in 1980. “Ever since 1 was 12 or 13 years old, I’ve wanted to be a Nebraska gymnast,” Bryan said. “I only took one recruiting trip here, but when I walked into this gym I knew right then that this is where I wanted to com pete.” Allen said he knew Bryan would help the Huskers out in his first year. “When we recruited Brad, we knew he was money in the bank,” Allen said. “He can do two to three events right now. He was a little weak here and there, but he’s turned into a fine college gymnast. “He will definitely be a mainstay on the team in the future,” Allen added. “I set some goals for him at the beginning of the season that I thought he wouldn’t achieve until the end of this year, and he’s already reached those goals.” Allen said Bryan’s graceful per formances remind him of former Nebraska gymnast Jim Mikus. “He has a very beautiful motion when he does his events, and Mikus was the same way,” Allen said. Bryan competed in the 1982 U.S. Olympic Festival as a member of the Junior National Team, but missed the next two Festivals because of a frac tured left ankle. In last year’s Festival, Bryan fin ished lied for 10th in the all-around with Oklahoma gymnast Mike Chap lin. Bryan said he’s improved his technique on all his events since he came to Nebraska. He said he thinks the Huskers have a good chance to win the NCAA Championship. ‘‘We have two team leaders on this team (Tom Schlesinger and Kevin Davis) who I think could lead us to an NCAA Championship,” Bryan said. “I know I can handle the pressure because the Lord Jesus Christ is right by my side, so I know I can handle anything.” Allen said Bryan’s work habits are excellent because he grew up in the gym, and that devotion has helped him improve as a gymnast. “Brad is a good, hard worker,” Allen said. “He doesn’t play around when he’s in the gym. He comes in and gets the job done, which I think in the long run is going to pay off.” Bryan said his main goal is to make the 1992 U.S. Olympic team and help Nebraska win a sixth national cham pionship. “I think every gymnast wants to compete in the Olympics, because it’s the ultimate meet,” Bryan said. “While I’m here at Nebraska, I would like to help us win several NCAA Championships. “I think if everybody stays healthy that we could win a few.” aSs.
