The Computer Shop-University Bookstore Lower Level-Nebraska Union 472-5785 Hours: M-F, 8:OOam-5:OOpm Comhuskers win two as Devaney watches By Mike KJuck Staff Reporter Nebraska softball coach Ron Wolforth had a personal interest in the Comhuskers’ double-header sweep of Kearney State Friday night. The Huskers beat Kearney State 2 0 and 6-1 at the Nebraska Softball Complex. Before the twin bill, the stadium’s new lights were dedicated and Nebraska Athletic Director Bob Devaney threw out the first pitch. “I’m just glad we won for Coach Devaney,” Wolforth said. “I hate to have him throw out the first ball and then split with Kearney. That’s im portant to me personally. Wolforth said he was pleased with the performance by both freshmen; pitcher Marie Bowie and shortstop Jane Kremer. Bowie got the victory on the mound in both games, giving up only three hits. “Every single second 1 am around her (Bowie) I get more pleased with her,” Wolforth said. “She is so much more mentally tough beyond her freshman year. I think to say she is going to be a great pitcher this year is putting too much pressure on her, out her sophomore and junior year, you better watch out for Marie Bowie.” Kremer had a .333 balling average for the two games. Defensively, she had three outs and eight assists. Nebraska hit well, Wolforth said. The Huskcrs, who raised their record to 5-1, recorded four hits in the first game and five in the second. Wolforth said he was disappointed with the play of Nebraska’s defense. “I thought defensively we didn’t play very well except for Jane Kre mer,” Wolforth said. “We didn’t throw the ball very well at all. Likewise, Kearney State coach Dan Simmons said he was unhappy with the Antelopes’ defense. “Nebraska swung the bat well, but defensively we never got on track,” Simmons said. “We misplayed a couple of bails and our pitchers had trouble getting in sync.” Butch Ireiantf/DaHy Nebraskan Nebraska’s Jill Rishel slides safely under the taa of a Kearney State player Friday during the Cornhuskers’ double-header sweep at the Nebraska Softball Complex. Nebraska won by scores of 2-0 and 6-1 to raise its record to 5-1. Simmons said she Lepers’ No. 1 pitcher, Susan Johnson, pulled a muscle in her arm last weekend and said that Friday night was the first time she had thrown all week. Johnson took the loss in the first game. “Basically, she threw well that first game, but we felt like we could only throw her one game and they threw their pitcher both games,” Simmons said. In the first game’s initial inning, senior Jill Rishel singled, stole second base and advanced to third on Johnson’s wild pitch. RuthChalwin’s sacrifice fly to center field scored Rishel. The Huskers increased (heir lead in the 6th when designated player Michelle Mason walked and stole second. A double by catcher Katy Wolda scored Mason to give Ne braska the 2-0 victory. Kearney State didn’t advance a runner past second base. Rishel also helped Nebraska score first in the second game. With one out in the first, Rishel was hit by a pitch and advanced to second on a passed ball. A double by Chatwin scored Rishel and a single by Deeanna Mays scored Chatwin as the Huskers jumped to a 2-0 lead. In the 2nd, Wolda walked and advanced to second on a wild pitch by Dana Skrobecki. Kristin Davidson’s single scored Wolda. Kearney State got a run back in the 3rd when Chatwin tried to pick Tisb McCants off of 1st base and over threw Mays, enabling McCants to score. In the 5lh, Nebraska’s Davidson reached first on a Loper error, stole second and scored on Rishel’s double. Kremcr then walked and both she and Rishel advanced on a wild pitch. Chatwin’s walk loaded the bases. Joy Rishel, Jill’s younger sis ter, followed with a two-run single, completing Nebraska’s scoring. Skrobecki took the loss for Kear ney State. Coach says loss shows difference between teams VOLLEYBALL from Page 7 The Huskers’ 15-0 victory against Indiana marked the 18th time that they have shutout an opponent in their 13-year history, with the last one coming against Missouri in the 1985 Big Eight tournament. Nebraska took a 12-9 lead in the firsigamc before Indiana’s Jill Bcggs, who made the all-tournament team, served five straight points, moving the Hoosiers to game point, 14-12. Stahr had a kill to end the Indiana string, and, after the Huskers scored three points to take a 15-14 lead, she served the game-winning point. Pettit said Nebraska’s 15-0 win in the second game was not reflective of Indiana’s talent. “We got into a rhythm where eve rything went right,” he said. “It was not a good game for them.” Indiana r.narh Tom fthnii said ihr 15-0 loss put a damper on an other wise fine match for Indiana. “I was pleased with games one, three and four,” Shoji said. “We played Nebraska as well as we could in those games. (In game three) we had to beat them — we couldn't go down in three straight after losing 15 Nebraska jumped to a 13-10 lead in game three before Indiana’s Liz Armbrustmacher, who also made the all-tournament team, served five straight points to give the Hoosiers the win. Indiana took a 14-13 lead in the fourth game, and served for the game, but a kill by Nebraska outside hitter Val Novak kept the Huskers alive. Pettit then inserted freshman Cris Hall into the match, and Hall re sponded with a kill to put Nebraska ahead 15-14. Hall then got the match ending kill after a bad Indiana pass. Pettit said he did not expect Hall, .. who had only four atlack^uuhe entire match, to have two kills to win the match, but he knew she would play well. Hall also had the match-ending kills against Wyoming and Kansas State. “I’ve seen enough of her to know she won’t choke,” Pettit said. “I want to gel Cris as much playing lime as possible, especially in pressure situ ations, to get her ready for the Big Eight (conference season).” Shoji said Nebraska’s ability to overcome two game points shows the difference between tne program that sixth-ranked Huskers have built and what Indiana is trying to build. “Nebraska has a good team,” S hoji said. “They get better as the score gels lighter. That’s the difference between a top 10 team and one like ours that is trying to break into the top 30. We sometimes play better when the score is tight, but Nebraska always does. Nebraska is used to winning those close matches.” Pettit said Indiana has a talented team. “They’ve beaten some good teams and they’re well-coached, he said. Shoji said the confidence Indiana gained against Nebraska will help their team in Big Ten play. Pettit said the tournament also will help Ne braska in its preparation for the Big Eight season. Nebraska opens confer ence play Saturday against Oklahoma in Norman, Okla. Pettit said Nebraska’s victory against Kansas State was not as lop sided as the score indicated. He said playing teams like Oklahoma and Kansas State on the road will not make Nebraska’s attempt at a 13th straight conference title any easier. “We ll have to be organized and know what we’re doing, Pettit said. “(Playing Oklahoma and Kansas State on the road) will be plenty tough.” m
