JAYCEES from Page 7

"You have to have that kind of
support against the wishbone,"
Thorell said. "If you don't get any
support from your safety on the op
tion, it’s going to be a long after
noon."
Carmcr said the Nebraska defense
did not make any adjustments after
Air Force scored its two touchdowns.
"We just remembered what coach
said about them beating us the past
two years," Carmer said. "It kind of
got to us."
Following the Falcon score, Ne
braska moved to the Air Force 20
yard line in the second quarter, but
missed a field goal. This time. Ne
braska marched from its 22-yard line
to the Air Force seven before fum
bling.
One of the reasons Nebraska had
trouble sustaining a long drive, but
had so many big plays instead was
because of Air Force's blitzing tac
tics. Air Force made seven tackles
for 46 yards in losses and blitzed
many limes throughout the game.
Thorcll said Grant helped Ne
braska make its big plays by calling
the right audibies at the right times.
"We audibied quite a bit, and
(Grant) did a good job of audibling,"
There 11 said. "They did bring some
pressure which made us change die
play we had called. (Grant) is a level
headed guy."
Grant said he audibied cm Bald
win's sccond-quaitcr touchdown run.
He said he audibied a lot during the
game.
"I could see what was going to
happen" Grant said. "I could see
where they would blitz and dien we
could pick it apart."
Nebraska burned Air Fence's
blitzing defense for a touchdown
early in the third quarter. The Husk
ers lined up in a power-! formation,
and Grant roiled left He then threw
back across die field to the right
sideline to a wide-open Hays, who
had been lined up in the Husker back
field, for a 40-yard touchdown pass,
with 13:17 left to play.
Thorell said the Husker junior
varsity had ran that pass play during i
its game against die Nebraska re- ■
dshirts last month, and it also worked j
against them.
Nebraska iced the game six min- |
utes later when Gram scampered 72 i
yards down the left sideline to the '
Falcon six-yard line on an option |
play. Baldwin, who led the Huskers ,
with 134 yards rushing, scored on the I
next play, giving Nebraska a 35-16 I
lead.
Grant said he was disappointed |
that he got caught shy of the goalline >
on his long run. He said the option I
had been open all day long, but he I
failed to take advantage of it until the
fourth quarter. Grant, who threw for I
86 yards and rushed for 83 more, said 1
he has not been happy with how he
has played yet this season.
”1 haven't played a perfect game
yet,” Giant said.
Thorell said he was happy to get
the win because of all the experience
Air Force had and because Nebraska
finally had a tough game. The Fal
cons stalled 14 sophomores and one
junior against Nebraska.
Women s tennis team uses tournament
to get rid of those ‘freshman jitters’
By Lori Griffin
Staff Reporter
With a young team that’s without a
senior, the fall season is important for
the Nebraska women’s tennis team,
Comhusker coach Gregg Calvin said.
The Huskers took advantage of the
Husker Invitational, which was held
Friday and Saturday at the East Cam
pus, Woods Park and Cather-Pound
courts, to gain some college playing
experience and rid themselves of the
“freshman jitters,’ ’ Calvin said.
“The fall season is a good experi
ence for the team because we can
work on strategies and play a lot of
matches,’* Calvin said. “Everyone
got to play at least six matches and
gained some good experience on our
home courts,’’ Calvin said.
No team scores were kept in the
tournament.
Nebraska used three freshmen,
four sophomores and one junior in the
starting lineup, Calvin said.
Calvin said he was especially
pleased with Nebraska’s team per
formance because each individual
played close matches against solid
players.
“We played against some good
players and that showed our team
where their weaknesses are,’’ Calvin
said. “We have some good college
experience now and now we have to
get back to practice and work on our
weak points.’’
Calvin said the Huskers were
plagued by injuries during the tourna
ment.
“The injuries affected our play,’*
Calvin said. “But injuries are just part
of the game and you have to hang in
there and do the best that you can.”
Junior Doneta Holmen suffered a
severe ankle sprain on Friday and
could not continue after her 1st
singles match of the tournament.
Earlier Friday, Holmen teamed with
Nancy Tyggum in the No. 1 doubles
competition. Holmen and Tyggum
were defeated 6-3, 5-7, 7-5, by Min
nesota’s Ann Gorde and Tanya Brgi
lag.
Freshman Kathrin Edelkotter, the
Huskers’ No. 1 singles player, also
suffered a sprained ankle that slowed
her performance, Calvin said.
Edelkotter lost her 1 st match Friday to
Iowa’s Liz Canzoroni 7-6, 6-7, 7-2.
She came back to win her 2nd match
against Arkansas’ JoAnn Vamum 7
6, 4-6, 6-3. On Saturday, Edelkotter
lost to Marijke Nel of Kansas State, 7
6,4-6, 7-5.
Edelkotter teamed with Ildiko
Guba to win the No. 2 doubles compe
tition. Edelkotter and Cuba defeated
Iowa’s Tracey Donnelly and Tracy
Paxton 6-1,6-3 on Friday. On Satur
day, the Huskcr tandem defeated
Patty Burbidgeand Sonja Panajolovic
of Colorado 6-2,6-2 for the title.
Guba, a sophomore from
Budapest, Hungary, won the No. 2
singles competition by defeating
Minnesota’s Sofie Olsson 6-4,6~1.
Huskcr freshmen Leslie Sue Jones
and Rachel Collins finished 5th in the
No. 3 doubles competition. The duo
defeated Colorado’s Susan Osterlund
and Elke Schaumberg 6-2, 6-2 on
Saturday.
In the No. 4 singles competition,
Tyggum reached the finals, where she
lost to Donnelly 6-1,6-1.
Jones finished in 7th place at No. 5
singles by defeating Toni Tanaqualy
of Wichita State, 6-1,6-3.
Collins finished in 5th place in the
No. 6 singles competition by defeat
ing Lisa Dick of Minnesota, 6-2,6-3.
Huskcr sophomore Claudia Gandini
finished in 7th place in No. 7 singles
by defeating Colorado’s Katie Woods
6-4.64.
Calvin said the toughest teams
were probably Minnesota and Arkan
sas. Minnesota placed three singles
players in the finals, Calvin said.
Calvin said Nebraska will play
Arkansas in a spring dual meet and
said he expects the Huskers to give the
Razorbacks a battle.
“We needed to play lough teams
and get match tough,” Calvin said.
Nebraska will travel to Boulder,
Colo., next weekend to compete in the
Colorado Invitational.
