Golf Continued from Page 6 cnee of this course. The North Forty is made for busy men and women who want quality golf quick. You pay $6.25 for about an hour and 15 minutes of afternoon or weekend play. For 18 holes, it is $10 for 2 1/2 hours. Using golf math, this is about $5 per hour for nine holes and $4 per hour for 18. At the municipal courses, it is less than $3 per hour. And, for that $3 per hour, a male college stu dent can go shirtless and pound the crap out of his driver. A female col lege student can just pound the crap out of her driver. 1 finished out the round pretty strong. My short irons got tough,and I parred three of the last four holes. The Goodyear guys adapted pretty well, too. They slopped using the tacky balls, and they both began to sink some terribly scientific putts. Like Pygmalion, we adapted, but the thrill of raw animal golf wasn’t there. For the upwardly mobile or the already up, the North Forty is a wel come and competent addition to the Lincoln golf spectrum. For college students and blue collar people, the North Forty, like fish eggs, is both a luxurious experience and a bore; something that, because of both want and necessity, probably will be taken in moderation. Neumann Continued from Page 6 controversial decision at the Sun Devil Duals, in which the Huskers were awarded a tic against then-No. 1 ranked Arizona State. The tic pul Nebraska into the con solation round against Iowa State, which the Huskers forfeited. Neumann, who also was voted the conference coach of the year, said his wrestlers ‘‘were cranked up” about the award. “They threw a surprise party for Mark Perry and I,” he said. “They were really enthusiastic.” Despite the honor and the suc cesses the team has enjoyed through out the season, Neumann said being voted national co-coach of the year won’t add pressure to him or the rest of the team going into the next sea son. “This is something no one really has any control over,’ ’ Neumann said. “It was totally unexpected. I’m happy to get it and everything, but there arc other things that arc more important to think about for next year. “We’ll have our work cut out for us.” Ramos Continued from Page 6 miss about nine games at the start next season. Central Florida C.C. coach Gene Smithson could not be reached for comment. Papik said the reason for the delay in the NCAA’s decision is that the Eligibility Committee ‘‘acts on eases on an individual basis.” ‘‘There is nothing real consistent about the way the NCAA operates,” he said. Another Cornhusker signs with NFL Former Nebraska offensive line man DougGlaser,an All-Big Eight selection who was bypassed in the National Football League draft, has signed a free-agent contract with the Washington Redskins. Thc6-foot-7,295-pound Glaser earned All-Big Eight honors this season. He was listed as the most overrated lineman in the country by The Sporting News.

NU splits weekend series with Tigers By Paul Domeier Senior Reporter The Nebraska baseball team’s offense finally exploded in a 14-8 win at Missouri on S unday to earn a week end split with the Tigers. The Comhuskcrs posted 17 hits in the seven-inning game to give John Ofstun, 4-1, the win. Seven Huskcrs hit safely, four with three hits apiece, in the team’s first double-figure per formance in Big Eight play. “Yesterday (Sunday) in the sec ond game, wc let loose,” Nebraska coach John Sanders said. * ‘That was a relief for our players, to do what they knew they could do all along.” The Huskcrs entered the Missouri scries hitting .229 and averaging four runs a game in conference play. Nebraska lost 11-4 and 5-2 in Satur day’s doubleheader, and the Huskcrs squeezed out a 2-1 win in the first game Sunday when Eddie Anderson singled in Craig Fairley in the top of the ninth. The two losses Saturday had put the Huskcrs in danger of missing the Big Eight tournament for the second straight year, but the sweep Sunday again tied Nebraska with Kansas for the fourth and final spot in the tourna ment. “It was a good comeback after a shaky start,” Sanders said. Nebraska, 35-20and 7-9 in the Big Eight, has four-game scries left with Kansas State and Iowa Slate, includ ing doublchcadcrs Friday and Satur day in Lincoln against the Wildcats. Nebraska freshman Josh Bullock, 4-3, allowed eight hits and one run in a complete-game victory in Sunday’s first game. Bullock also pitched well in his previous outing last Wednesday in Creighton’s 6-5 comeback victory over Nebraska. The Huskers and Blucjays will play again today and Wednesday in 7 p.m. games at Buck Bcltzcr Field. Bullock, after a complete game two days ago, is an unlikely pitcher for tonight’s game, but both Sanders and Creighton coach Jim Hendry said they didn’t know who would pitch tonight. Both said their first concern in mound choices will be getting pitch ers ready for the weekend. 4 ‘The Division I games mean a lot, but they’re not as important as the league games,” Hendry said. Even with the natural rivalry be tween intrastate rivals. ‘‘John and I have it in perspective pretty well,” Hendry said. ‘‘Some times the kids get a little emotional. They say things during the game and immediately afterwards that they shouldn’t say.” Creighton, which also beat Ne braska 6-0 earlier in the season, has a weekend series with nationally ranked Missouri Valley Conference rival Wichita State which overshadows the Nebraska games. The Blucjays’ Iasi games were 18-6 and 11-0 wins over Bradley on Sunday. Bui despite pitching limitations and comparative unimportance of today’s and Wednesday’s contests, Hendry said, the teams need to win the mid-week games for weekend momentum and postseason status. “Not only is it tough emotionally, but you have to play a lough schedule to qualify for rcgionals if you don’t win your conference,’’ he said.
