NU runner says championships extinguish lethargy
By Darvan Fowler
SulT Reporter
A little extra work has already
paid off for Nebraska’s Mark Perry.
Now, he’s hoping it pays big divi
dends ^gain.
While everyone else was away,
Perry spent his winter holiday break
working out twice a day at the Bob
Devancy Sports Center track.
As a result, he ran a personal best
lime of 6.21 seconds in the 55-meter
dash in the Comhuskcrs' first meet of
the season. That effort qualified the
senior sprinter, who also competes in
the 200, for his first NCAA meet.
Since that meet. Perry said he
went through a little lethargic stage in
which he lacked motivation.
“It’s tough to stay up mentally
from week to week with everyday
training,” Perry said.
But, Perry said, this weekend’s
Big Eight championships at the
Sports Center have given him the
drive to train hard once again. He said
he expects equally impressive re
sults.
In the Huskers’ dual meet against
Big Eight rival Kansas State earlier
this season. Perry finished 2nd to the
Wildcats’ Ray Hill in the 55. The next
week at the Frank Sevigne-Husker
Invitational, Perry dropped to a 6th
place finish.
Perry said he intends on winning
the 55 dash ai the Big Eight champi
onships even though he finished be
hind Hill and Missouri’s Peter
Ifeduba and Ycmi Alade’fa at the
Husker Invitational. He said he also
intends to run a NCAA qualifying
time of 21.37 in the 200 dash.
Nebraska assistant and men s
sprint coach Glen Stone said Perry
was affected by his early success. But
he said he has noticed a change in
Perry’s work habits.
“We like to have a steady rate ol
improvement instead ol running fast
once and than not doing it again,
Slone said.4 ‘Once he met the qualify
ing mark his intensity dropped, but
he’s been getting more exciting
now.”
Perry said he employs a definite
strategy w hen he competes in the 55.
“It’sa short race and anything can
happen,” Perry said, “'tou have to
run your race. S ou can t concentrate
on the guv next to you or it 11 throw
>u off mentally.”
Pern recorded his best time ol
21.44 in the 200 against Kansas State.
He said he has not achieved the
NCAA qualifying standard because
of the race’s final 70 meters.
“We’re working on breaking on
that final curve,” Perry said.
Stone said Perry is capable of
qualifying for the NCAA's 200 com
petition. He said several endurance
drills are preparing Perry for his final
kick in the race.
“I always thought he was a better
200 runner than a 55,” Stone said.
Perry said he will not feel nervous
when he competes in the NCAA
championships even though he has
never qualified lor them before. He
said he has been competing m track
since he was nine and that has helped
hiu> learn to deal w uh pressure.
“I'm pretty good at hand I mg anx 1 -
cty,” Perry said. “I’ve been running
so long that I don't get that nervous,
although some of it is good. I've
learned how to regulate that and the
more relaxed you are the better you
do.”
Perry spent his first collegiate
season at Wichita State, where he
competed in football and track. Alter
his freshman season, he said he
elected to focus solely on track be
cause he wasn’t satisfied with Wic
hita State’s football program.
Perry, an Omaha ’ Northwest
graduate, said he returned to Ne
braska because ol the Huskers good
track program and because n also
gave him an opportunity to be closer
to his family.
This week is critical for basketball team, Nee says
NEE From Page 9
said.
‘ ‘ I think at this lime of year... lhai
is a common thing tor teams that are
losing,” Nee said. “It would be easy
for people to be just going through the
motions. I don’t see that in any re
spect with our basketball team.'
Nee said Nebraska, which
dropped a 79-(v decision Sunda> to
Missouri in Columbia. Mo., has been
playing well.
"A lot of plavers are on positive
notes." he said. "The negative note
is we haven't been w inning."
