    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.

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.

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.”

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.”

1 2 teams dominate intramural All-Stars
Players from the Sweet Hogs
and the Brew Crew dominated the
University of Nebraska-Lincoln’s
intramural flag football All-Star
team that was released Wednesday
by the Office of Campus Recrea
tion.
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.

11 KSU women’s basketball coach resigns
Kansas Slate women’s basket
ball coach Matilda Mossman has
announced her resignation.
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

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.
