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.”

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.”
