Landry says Walker ‘dominating
IR VING,Texas (AP)-“America’s
Team” has become the “The Herschel
Walker Cowboys.”
It became clear Monday night that
the 1988 NFL fate of the Dallas
Cowboys rests solcy on the perform
ance of Walker.
Walker carried nine times on the
winning 81-yard touchdown drive as
-the Cowboys defeated the Phoenix
Cardinals 17-14. Dallas ran 24 plays
in the fourth period and Walker
touched the ball on 17 of those plays,
accounting for 88 of the club’s 122
yards.
“Thai’s what I envisioned when I
decided to put Tony Dorset! on the
bench,” said Dallas coach Tom Lan
dry. “Herschel can just dominate a
game. You can be in perfect position
and he will still break a tackle and
make a big play.”
The loudly objecting 33-year-old
Dorsctt was traded to Denver so the
26-ycar-old Walker could become
the Cowboys’ prime offensive
weapon.
“I like to carry the ball a lot,”
Walker said. “1 get into the llow of the
game that way. ”
Walker ran 29 times for 149 yards
against the Cardinals.
“Ideally, we like to gel the ball into
his hands 30 to 35 limes a game,”
Landry said. “Phoenix did a good job
of double-teaming Hcrschel on pass
coverage, so we just pitched it to him.
He’s powerful and always seems to be
stronger in the fourth quarter than he
is in the first quarter.”
Landry did admit he may have
stretched Walker to his limit on the
81-yard drive.
“That’s the hardest workout he’s
had since summer camp,” Landry
said. “I was wondering if he had any
spring left in his legs down there.”
Walker said he enjoys getting the
ball and ducking behind Dallas’ 300
pound offensive linemen.
“They are young but they’re learn
ing and they do a great job,” Walker
said. “It’s fun to run behind them.”
Landry said the Cowboys’ are
Walker’s team.
“I’d buy a ticket just to watch the
guy run,” the coach said. “I would
love to be an offensive lineman for
Hcrschcl.”
All total, Walker touched the ball
receiving or running 32 times against
Phoenix and gained 171 yards.

Chatwin praises Husker program
By Jeremy Felker
Stalf Reporter
Nebraska softball player Ruth
Chatwin was surprised to receive a
scholarship to play softball at Ne
braska. Especially since Chatwin is
from the land Down Under.
Chatwin, a senior catcher from
Melbourne, Australia, is the first
Australian to play softball for the
Cornhuskers.
“I’m one of
probably
60,000 sofl
ballcrs at home,
and I just didn’t
know that it (the
scholarship)
was ever going rhatwin
to be real, she said. cna,wm
Even in Australia, Chatwin said,
Nebraska’s athletic reputation is
growing. The Huskers’ softball pro
gram is an example, she said.
“Of the schools that recruited me,
Nebraska had ihc best reputation as
far as its softball program was con
cerned,” Chalwin said. ‘‘It also has its
academics above sports... whereasat
some schools, it is sports and then
academics.”
Chalwin has maintained a 3.35
grade point average and was a mem
ber of the 1987 GTE Academic All
American 3rd team, the Big Eight
Academic Honor Roll and the Aca
demic All-Big Eight softball team.
Chalwin said she has not pul soft
ball anywhere near the backseat.
“I believe that if I don’t try my
hardest or give that 1(X) percent, 10
years down the road, when I look back
on my final year, I’m the only one
who’s really lost,” she said.
The Huskers will be young and
inexperienced following the loss of
four seniors from the roster this year,
but according to Chalwin, inexperi
ence may not be a disadvantage at all.
“They arc very young, but they
have so much enthusiasm for the
sport,” she said. “I think the inexperi
ence is really going to be a catalyst
too, because every year the preseason
rankings arc cither one, two or three,
and that puls a lot of pressure on from
the start, whereas right now who cares
where we arc.”
“Right now, we set our fortune and
we establish ourselves.”
Husker coach Ron Wolforth said
the Huskers will achieve success
through senior leadership and posi
tive altitudes. Chatwin, he said, will
be one of Nebraska’s leaders.
‘‘The whole team has that atti
tude,” he said, “but Ruth gives leader
ship in her judgment or selection ol
pitches,on the hitting /.one and hitting
situation.”
' “She’s a clutch hitter," he said.
Wolforth said that last season,
Chatwin nearly doubled her 1986
total for runs baited in. Such an im
provement, according to Chatwin, is
due to a “totally new concept on bat
ting, which I think is very consistent,
very effective.”
“I think we’re the first one in soft
ball (to use the new balling tech
niques),” she said.
Chatwin said it is because of these
new tcchmqucsanda positivcattitudc
that a Big Eight title can be attained.
“I don’t mean definitely we’re
going to win, but definitely that is
what we arc striving for. If we win the
Big Eight, everything else will come
from that.”
Chatwin has another goal entering
her senior season.
“I hope that when 1 finish playing,
I will end my career playing for my
country in the Olympics,” she said.
“That’s how I want to end my career
— on a high note. I don’t want to go
out in some slow-pitch, beer-drinking
league."
