DN defeated 51 -47
A valiant effort fell by the wayside
when the Daily Nebraskan dropped a
51-47 overtime decision to Bad
Reputation in Class ‘C’ intramural
action at Mabel Lee Hall.
The Daily Nebraskan, 1-2, took a
10-point lead in the first half behind
the shooting of forward Ryan
Stccves. Stccves tallied six of the
DN's first eight points cn route to a
team-high 12 point effort.
But in the second half, Bad Repu
tation used a strong inside game that
was bolstered by the intimidating
presence of former Lincoln High
standout Jim Krueger. Krueger, a 6
foot-6 center, scored eight of his
game-high 14 points in the second
half.
Bad Reputation, 2-1, then
outscored the DN 4-0 in the overtime
period to escape with the victory. The
game was witnessed by a crowd esti
mated at six people.
Jane Hirt, the DN’s sports infor
mation director, said the team’s next
game will be on Tuesday. The DN
will face the Toxic Shockers in an
8:45 p.m. game at the NU Coliseum.

Kansas coach says team is confident
By Jeff Apel
Senior (editor
There will be a celebration Satur
day at the Bob Devaney Sports Cen
ter, but Kansas swimming coach
Gary Kempf would like to spoil the
festivities.
Kempf said he would like to botch
the final, home dual meet for eight
senior members on the Nebraska
men’s and women’s swimming
teams by posting a pair of victories.
He said Kansas is confident entering
the meet, which begins at 1:30 p.m.
The Nebraska men will prepare
for the meet by facing Arkansas Fri
day at 7 p.m. at the Sports Center.
“We’re coming to race,’’ Kempf
said. “I never make predictions
about who is going to win, but one of
our goals is to go in and race.’’
Nebraska men’s swimming coach
Cal Bent/ and women’s coach Ray
Huppcrt said their squads will be
ready for Kansas. They said the long
standing rivalry between Nebraska
and Kansas -- plus the last home
appearance by the eight seniors -
will provide all the motivation (heir
teams need.
“The kids know it’s a big rival,’’
Huppcrt said. “I’m trying not to do
anything differently, but it’s the kind
of meet we’re not going to
downplay.”
Huppcrt and Bent/ said the meet is
important because it is Nebraska’s
final tune-up before the Big Eight
championships. They said it is also
meaningful because several alumni
of the Nebraska sw imming program
will join the eight seniors who will be
honored.
The seniors on this year’s Ne
braska men’s team include Mike
Irvin, Kollin Kostboth, Mark
Nicuwcnhuis, Dan Novinski, Ed Rief
and diver Lewis Meyers. The seniors
on the Nebraska women’s team are
Jennifer Pederson and diver Julie
May.
Bcnlz said his senior class is spe
cial because all six of the athletes
have made significant contributions.
Irvin is a three-lime All-America
selection who was a two-time mem
ber of the U.S. National Team, while
Kostboth is an academic A11-Amer
ica who earned honorable mention
All-America honors while compet
ing on Nebraska’s 800-yard free relay
team in 1987.
Nicuwcnhuis is a transfer from
Alabama who has added solid depth,
and Novinski is a three-lime honor
able mention All-America selection
who is a team captain this season.
Rief is an honorable mention All
America selection from Hastings,
while Meyers is a three-lime Big
Eight champion who earned All
American honors on the 10-meter
tower last season.
Bent/ said the accomplishments
of this year's senior class are un
precedented.
“We’ve never had live All
Americans before,’’ Bent/ said.
“We hope to have more in future
classes.’’
Bcnlz said the seniors are a pleas
ure to coach because they set a good
example by establishing excellent
work ethics. He said the seniors have
also established themselves outside
of the pool.
“They’ve continued to improve,
and they’re all in line for gradu
ation,” Bentz said. “They’ve all
done a good job.”
Novinski said he has not been
surprised by his success. He said 17
years of competitive swimming paid
off during his Nebraska career.
Novinski said his Nebraska career
is going by quickly.
“I’ve been swimming for quite a
while, but the last four years have
gone by fast,” he said. “All of the
sudden, it’s almost over.”
Novinski said he will not be sad
dened when his Nebraska career
ends. He said he is looking forward to
not hav ing to mix his training sched
ule with academics.
“It’s going to be a good feeling to
go to school and not be so tired that I
fall asleep in class,” Novinski said.
“It definitely will be different.”
Huppert said it also will be differ
ent when Pederson and May are no
longer members of the Nebraska
program. Pederson earned honorable
mention academic All-Big Bight
honors last season, and has shared
Nebraska’s duties in the 500-yard and
l,650-yard freestyle events with
Jenny Butler this season. May is a
two-time NCAA qualifier who cap
tured the Big Eight’s one-meter div
ing championship in 1987.
“Both of them are great individu
als,” Huppert said. “They’ll be leav
ing us with positive memories.”

Nebraska drops
83-80 decision
NEE From Page 13
Slate 102-86 Saturday in Boulder.
Colorado's Brian Robinson, a 6
fool-5 forward, scored a career-high
29 points and Shaun Vandiver, a 6-10
center, scored 27 points to pace ihe
Buffaloes.
Nee said Nebraska can’t win on
the road if it allows the opposition to
score easy points.
“Vandiver and Robinson scored
27 and 29 points - we (the coaches)
were shouting the whole game for us
to slow them down,’’ Nee said. “We
don’t do that and that’s the name of
the game. They scored over 50
points.”
Nebraska cut Colorado’s lead to
81 -80 on a hook shot by center Rich
King with 1:12 remaining. Vandiver
then made two free throws with :14
left to give the Buffaloes an 83-80
lead.
Colorado sealed the w in when
Nebraska missed two three-pomt
shots in the game’s closing seconds.
Nebraska guard Clifford Scales
scored 17 points to pace four Huskers
in double figures. Forwards Pete
Manning and Beau Reid added 16
and 13 points respectively. King
contributed 10.
Nebraska’s next game is on Satur
day, when the Huskers travel to
Manhattan, Kan. to face the Kansas
State Wildcats. The game begins at
12:07 p.m. at Bramlage Coliseum.
