fcVrestling coach wants team to avoid letdown this weekend after early wins ty Chuck Green enior Reporter After seeing his team compete in ts biggest meet of the season, Ne >raska wrestling coach Tim Neu nann is worried about a letdown. Last weekend at the Las Vegas nvitational, the Comhuskers fin shed third in the 42-team tournament nd placed five wrestlers in the top ix of their weight classes. Two Huskers - Jason Kelber at 26 pounds and Joe Malecek at leavyweight - won their divisions. Neumann said he isn’t sure how to ceep his team emotionally high for his weekend’s duals against North ern Illinois and Lock Haven. “Actually, we’re planning on being real low-key for this weekend’s duals,” Neumann said. “We wrestled a$ good as we could have (at Las Vegas), and I think our guys know that they don’t have to wrestle their very best to win this weekend. “They still have to wrestle, but I think they can win on technique.” Nebraska faces Northern Illinois at 6:30 p.m. Friday at the Bob Deva ney Sports Center, and will take on Lock Haven at 8 p.m. Northern Illi nois and Lock Haven will wrestle at 5 p.m. University of Nebraska-Lincoln students who present their student ID cards will be admitted to the meets for free. Because Nebraska faces No. 7 ranked Iowa State Dec. 16 in Ames, Iowa, Neumann said, Husker coaches don’t want to emotionally drain their team this weekend. “I don’t know if we can get them up for three weeks in a row,’ ’ he said. “We understand that we have to wrestle these meets this weekend, though.” Neither Northern Illinois nor Lock Haven were among Amateur Wres tling News’Top-25 teams. Neumann said Northern Illinois has had injury problems throughout the season, “but they’re always one of the most physical teams we wrestle.” Lock Haven also is physical, Neumann said. “They wrestle a completely dif ferent style than we do,” he said. “They try to pin you all the time. Northern Illinois always tries to throw you.” Neumann said the physical style of this weekend’s opponents presents opportunities and problems for the Huskers. “When they try to pin or throw you all the time, you can execute some moves on them that aren’t there for other teams,” he said. “But you can get pretty beat up, too.” Neumann said his team is looking forward to making its home debut. “We’re looking forward to being at home, especially after Vegas,” he said. “Our kids are healthy and they have a great attitude. TICKETS from Page 15 who have friends and relatives there, too, and that gives them a good ex cuse to visit and take in a game while they’re there.” Tickets for the 1990 Fiesta Bowl cost $36. That figure represents a $6 increase from the 1987 Fiesta Bowl. Sel ig said the price increase hasn ’ t affected sales. “It doesn’t appear to be a deter rent,” he said. ‘‘Generally, the ticket price tends to be the cheapest part of the trip anyway. It doesn’t appear - looking at the requests - that that has affected sales at all.” TRAVELERS from Page 16 mouth,” Scheele said. “It certainly didn’t do us any good. We damaged ourselves by having that happen.” Tim Dinslage, the Sweet Hogs’ team captain, said his team is looking forward to competing in the champi onships for the second time in three years. The Sweet Hogs also qualified in 1987. “We didn’t expect to qualify at all,” Dinslage said. “It was such a turn of events.” In addition to being allowed to compete, Dinslage said the Sweet Hogs were presented with more good news - Better Quality Cassettes Inc. has agreed to donate S500 for the team’s trip. He said that money will be used along with the S1,500 stipend provided by the Office of Campus Recreation. Dinslage said the Sweet Hogs arc approaching the championships seri ously even though they know they will be at a disadvantage. “Most teams down there play football like we play softball,” he said. “They play 70 to 80 games a year.” Dinslage said that doesn’t mean his team is entering the playoffs with the idea it can’t win. “Last time we went down there we played mostly for fun,” he said “This time, we want to win a couple games.” Need A Lawyer?

The Sweet Hogs, who defeated Sig Ep B-2 7-0 to win this year’s all-university flag football title, used their dominating perform ance throughout the season to place four players on the team. The Brew Crew also placed four play ers on the squad, which was di vided into eight-player offensive and defensive units. Players were not selected based on their true positions, as a number of selections spent the season at skilled positions like quarterback or wide receiver. The selections were made by Craig Christensen, the relations director at the Utnce of Campus Recreation, and several staff assistants. The Sweet Hogs who were in cluded on the offensive team were Scott Johnson, Tim Dinslage and Guy Fredricksen, while Craig Moser made the squad as a defen sive player. The Brew Crew team members included were Carl Hroza on offense and Devin Kos miki, Mike Beacon and Todd Lorenz on defense. The remainder of the team in cluded Sig Ep’s Scotl Kinnison on offense and Garreu Anderson and Doug Ayer on defense and No r Clue’s Darren Swanson on of- . ' fense. Abel 7’s Shawn Comstock and Mark Swanson also made the team as offensive players, while ATO’s Mike Stephens and Jason Morrissey made the squad as de- , fensive players.

Mossman, who began the sea i son with an 80-66 record during her 5-year stay with the Wildcats, was named the 1987 Big Eight Coach of the Year after guiding her team to a conference champion ship. Kansas State finished last sea son with an 18-11 record. BECK from Page 15 guards, Ycdscna may have a lough time stepping into the rotation. If the freshman can push her way into the lineup , though, Yancey might team with Yedsena in the backcourt (The “Y”s Choice?). The 1990-91 Huskcrs will have senior leadership from Dahn, Ann Halsnc and Kelly H ubcrl, inside scor ing from Jennings, and shooing and quickness from Hicstand and Hubert was becoming a silent star with her rebounding and intensity before injuring her ankle against Oral Roberts. Sarah Muller could make the same jump as Hubert’s replace ment. Beck doesn’t win all ofhcr recruit ing battles. Highly touted Amy Fordham of Lincoln Southeast slipped away and signed with Mis souri. But Beck is getting so many tal ented players that even if one player stops improving or gets hurt, like Hubert, another player will take her place - sort of safely in numbers. As these young players become juniors and seniors, Beck will be safe in the most important numbers of all: wins and losses. Domeler is a Junior news-editorial major and is a DN sports columnist.
