lion of their schedule, which begins
March 30 against Kansas.
“That’s our focus,” Sanders said.
“Everything we do from now on is
for that.”
Sanders said this year has been
challenging because he has assumed
the role of the Huskcrs’ pitching coach.
Sanders last served as Nebraska’s
pitching and hitting coach in 1982.
Sanders said he enjoys his new
pitching duties.
“Being a pitching coach again is
like having a new job,” he said. “But
I enjoy it. It’s an important part of the
game.”
Sanders said his new duties have
forced him to split time working with
Nebraska’s hitters and pitchers. He
said assistant coaches Larry Mims,
Paul Meyers and Steve Gillespie in
struct the Huskcr hitters when he is
working with the pitchers.
Gillespie is a former coach at Fort
Hays (Kan.) College, while Meyers
and Mims are a pair of former Huskei
players who are working their way
through the San Diego and San Fran
cisco minor-league systems.
“All of our coaches have worked
very hard,” Sanders said. “They’ve
enjoyed the challenge.”
Sanders said he is confident that
Nebraska will have a good season. He
said the Huskcrs continue to display
the work ethic that is required to win.
“This is a good group. We’ve had
a good business-type attitude,’ ’ Sand
ers said. “This group has demon
strated a workmen’s-like approach.”
Huskers

Suitts agreed with Nee.
“I think the biggest thing to
night was that our best player got
hurt in practice yesterday and didn’t
even dress (for the game),” Suitts
said. * ‘When you take the best one
off our team, it’s not like there’s
somebody else out there to carry
the load.
‘‘And, we didn’t shoot very
well.”
Nebraska’s Dapreis Owens
started at forward for the Huskers,
scoringf 13 points and pulling down
three rebounds.
Noe said Owens performed well
for his first start at Nebraska.
‘‘I think moving Dapreis into
the lineup helped us a little to
night.” Nee said.
Owens said he was confident
going into the game, both of his
own ability as well as Nebraska’s
chances for a win.
‘‘I felt all right,” Owens said.
‘‘I found out two days ago I was
starting tonight, and I was really
excited. But not nervous.
‘‘We knew coming into this
game that Chicago State’s record
was not so good, but we also knew
we had to play well. I think we
came through.”
Nee said he thought the Husk
ers manipulated Chicago State well.
‘‘I was really pleased with the
way we handled their zone de
fenses, and their junk defenses,”
he said. ‘‘Sometimes, they had a
box-and-one on (Husker forward)
Ray Richardson. I was pleased,
because I was worried that without
Clifford Scales and with Keith
Moody moving to the point, we
would be in trouble.”
Nebraska led43-23 at halftime,
then extended its lead by as much
as 37 in the second half. Through
one nine-minute stretch, Nebraska
outscored Chicago State 30-8.
‘ ‘In the second half, they got all
relaxed and happy,” Suitts said ol
the Huskers. ‘‘when you gu 25
(points) ahead, it all comes really
^‘Jn the first half, we couldn’t
make a shot. I honestly thought we
played pretty well. We ran them
out of their man-to-man defense
and made then go to zone, but we
weren’t making a lot of shots.”
The Cougars shot 31.4 percent
from the field in the game’s first
20 minutes, connecting on only 11
of 35 shots. Chicago State missed
all nine of its 11 first-half three
point-shot attempts.
Meanwhile, the Huskers hit 12
of 33 shots from the field, and
made 5 of 7 three-point attempts
during the first half.
Carl Hayes and Richardson led
the Huskers with 15 poinLs each,
while center Rich King added 14.
Dapreis Owens and Richard van
Poclgcest scored 13 points each.
Chicago State forward James
Parker scored 25 to guide the
Cougars, while Lu Parker added
12.
