1 Huskers 3-1 in weekend tourney
SOFTBALL from Page 9
Kremer means to our ball club,”
Woiforth said. "This summer I wasn't
sure how Kremer would shape up as a
leader because she had never been in
that role before. Now, in her senior
year, she has gone far and above
coach (Rick)Church and my expecta
tions as a leader. She is the best leader
I had since Lori Richins.” .
Kremer provides the senior leader
ship on the HusKvrs’ freshman-domi
nated team. She said the freshmen
proved themselves during the tourna
ment, which opened Nebraska’s fall
schedule.
Woiforth said that besides Kre
mer, he was impressed with the play
of freshman outfielder Kristin
Davidson. Woiforth was pleased with
the performance of freshmen pitchers
Marie Bowie and Deanna Mays.
Bowie had a 2-1 record, including
one save while Mays recorded the win
against Northern Iowa.
“I thought Marie Bowie showed
one heck of a lot of freshman mental
toughness,” Woiforth said. “(Against
Creighton) she gives up two runs she
could have packed in her tent and
went home.
“She’s out there all by herself and
all she did was say Creighton — no
more — and threw six more innings
and kept us in it.”
Last night, Creighton’s right
fielder Morya Nichols reached first
on a Husker error in the 1 st inning and
advanced to second on a sacrifice
bunt by center fielder Lisa Elwcll.
Second baseman Sue Frederick drew
the walk and a single by catcher
Karyn Rice scored both Nichols and
Frederick to give the Bluejays a 2-0
lead.
Nebraska scored in the third inning
when Davidson singled and moved to
second on a Creighton error. Left
fielder Jill Rishcl and Kremer sand
wiched singles around Mays’ pop out

Some women think they need to take an occasional
rest from the Pill. So they switch to a less effective form of
birth control, and increase their chances of getting preg
nant. Jus* how restful this can be is highly questionable.
What is certain, however, is that there's no medical evi
dence that supports this notion of taking a break. None.
There are other myths, miscon
ceptions and questions about the
Pill. What about the Pill and breast
cancer? Although there are con- *
flicting reports concerning this
« m ■ ■ issue, the Centers for Disease Control
If ■■11 reported that women who took the Pill —
W I 8 11 even for IS years-ran no higher risk of
I breast cancer than the women who didn’t.
S t# They also reported that ovarian and uterine
■■■I cancer are substantially less common
if p among women on the Pill. What’s more,
/ II mL b Pill users are less likely to develop pelvic
I ■I III inflammatory disease (tubal infections),
I Ifl I lh benign breast disease, and iron deficiency
Aanemia-not to mention menstrual cramps.
And the rumor that the Pill makes you less fertile is
just that. Rumor. Studies indicate that if you were
fertile before you took the Pill, taking it should not
affect your ability to have children later. Some women
_ _ _ _
I F
may experience a short period of readjust- _
ment after discontinuing the Pill. But even JTII
so, they usually become pregnant soon. I ■■ b
So does the Pill have any real risks? Yes
And you should know what those risks are. Ill Si
For example, if you are taking the Pill, you —a ill
should not smoke. Especially if you’re over ■■i I Ifl
33. Cigarette smoking is known to increase b?l 9 8 a
the risk of serious and possibly life- V
threatening adverse effects on the heart and I 9 fell 9
blood vessels from Pill use. What’s more, women with cer
tain conditions or medical histories should not use the
Pill. Even if you’re already on the Pill, you should see your
doctor at least once a year. And be sure to read the patient
information that’s included in every Pill package.
When it comes to birth control, tbe best advice is to v
seek out the best advice. Go to reliable sources. Ask a lot
of questions. Discuss all the options with your doctor.
Because only then will you know where the myth ends.
And the truth begins.

Creighton coach Mary Higgins
said the game was typical of the
teams’ series.
“It is always a great contest be
tween Creighton and Nebraska,”
Higgins said. “Both teams really take
it to each other.”
On Friday night against Iowa
State, Kremer’s home run gave the
Huskers a 1-0 lead in the first inning.
In the fourth inning, after Kremer and
left fielder JanelleFrese singled, Katy
Wolda’s single scored Kremer. Mich
elle Mason’s single scored Frese and
gave the Huskers a 3-0 lead.
The Cyclones scored a run in the
fifth, but Nebraska held on tor the
victory.
Against Northern Iowa, Mays
pitched a two-hitler. Five Panther
errors helped Nebraska’s cause.
Bowie limit d Iowa State to six
hits, bulagainst Illinois State she gave
up nine hits, three runs and two walks
in the Huskers’ loss.
The Redbirds scored a run in the
first inning. The Huskers retaliated in
the bottom of the first when Rishc!
reached first on a Redbird error and
scored on Kremer’s second home run
of the tournament to give the Huskers
a 2-1 lead.
In the sixth inning, Illinois State
won the game with two runs..
Wolforth said the tournament was
a learning experience for the Huskers.
“It was a real good chance for the
players to see me and how I am,"
Wolforth said. “I hope they know now
a little bit more about what it takes to
win at the Division I level.
“What I caution the people about is
that this is good softball but it is not
top 10 softball," he said. “There
might not be a team here that is in the
top 10, including Nebraska. I think
there’s one team that is going to be (in
the top 10) and that is Nebraska."
The Huskers will play a double
header against Kearney State Friday
