V._/ NU takes top spot in invitational By Cory Golden Staff Reporter It took the little things for the Nebraska volleyball team to pull off big wins in the FirsTier Invitational Friday and Saturday at the NU Coli seum. The Comhuskcrs ~ ranked No. 1 in the NCAA poll, No. 2 in the Ameri can Volleyball Coaches Association poll — topped No. 12 Brigham Young, North Carolina and No. 17 Wisconsin to secure first place. It looked as though upset-minded BYU was prodding a sleeping giant ess Friday night, thrashing the Husk ers 15-3 in the first game. Nebraska All-Amcrican Janet Kruse said being groggy wasn’t the prob lem. ‘‘We were just tense,” she said. ‘‘We were making errors and they just continued to compound. ‘‘They were mental errors. Every one was trying hard but things just wcrcnTclicking forus. But we pulled ourselves together.” The Huskcrs rose to their feet and battled the upstart Cougars to a knucklc biling 16-14 win. Nebraska ground out a 10-3 lead before BYU came back behind the vicious jump serving of 21-year-old Finnish National Team member Tea Niemincn. The 5-foot-11 outside hit ter ripped eight straight to slice the lead to one before serving long. Moments later, Niemincn added a kill to give the Cougars a 14-12 lead but sent her 14-13 game point serve into the net. Kills by Huskcrs Cris Hall, Nikki Strieker and All-Ameri can Val Novak tied the match. Kruse said Nebraska talked about fundamentals during the five minute intermission between the second and third games. Whatever was said, worked. The Huskers’ block and team de fense iced over the hot BYU attack, lowering the Cougar’s hitting per centage from .305 to -.296, and win ning game three 15-6. In the fourth game, Nebraska crushed BYU 15-1 to take the match and cam the team’s 500th all-time victory. Saturday morning, it took just over an hour to make North Carolina number 501. While the Huskers continued to play sub-par volleyball, Kruse said, they dispatched the Tar Heels 15-13, 15-8 and 15-8. Nebraska realized its mistakes from the first two matches, and got it to gether for its final match against Wisconsin. “In the first two matches, when things weren’t going our way we tended to break down,’’ Kruse said. “So we came into the third game, again, just concentrating on the little things.” Back to basics worked once more, Coach Terry Pettit said. “The things we struggled with early in the tournament really helped us in the final match,” he said. Nebraska took the first game from Wisconsin, unbeaten in its previous 13 matches, 15-5. An adjustment in the Badgers lineup moving 6-1 middle blocker Arlisa Hagan away from the Huskers’ 6-2 Stephanie Thaler sparked a 15-13 game two victory. Pettit won the chess match by moving the 6-2 Hall to middle blocker to counter Hagan. ‘ ‘ Having Cris go to the middle and having Linda Barsncss come in and take left was very important,” Pettit $50 $50 MONO Have you had mononucleosis within the last month?

Hagan, who entered the tourna ment with a .402 hitting percentage, ended the match with just 12 kills on 32 attempts for a .281 percentage. Hall became even more dominant at the middle. Fed by her roommate, Novak, at setter, she pounded 21 kills on the night and led Nebraska to a 15 4 game three victory, followed by a 15-8 fourth game win to lake the match. Thater, Eileen Shannon and Kruse also had double-figure kill perform ances iri the match, as the Huskers hit .391 to the Badgers .095. That and the emphasis on funda mentals slaved off the upset, Pettit said, looking over statistics. “Reception errors, digs, 15 blocks . . . That tells the whole story right there,” he said. “And the attack was pretty balance — every rotation got about 10 kills. That’s certainly nice to see.” Other things don’t show up on slat sheets for Nebraska, now 12-1 on the season, 7-1 against top 20 teams. “We just hung in, played tough ball. There was some great volleyball out there,” Pettit said. “They were a real good team and there were a lot of side outs, finally we broke them a little at the end. “This was by far our best match.” NU runner takes 1 st in invitational From Staff Reports Nebraska’s Joe Kirby was the men’s 8,000-mctcr individual winner at the Mountain West Classic cross country invitational Saturday in Missoula, Mont. Kirby won with a time of 24 min utes, 38.9 seconds. “Joe ran a spectacular race,” Comhusker coach Jay Dirksen said. “It was an important victory indi vidually for Joe.” David Iteffa finished 26th in 25:52.5; Kevin Clark 29th in 25:54.6; Frank Lee 32nd in 26:04.0 and Kirk Petit 42nd in 26:14.7 for Nebraska, which finished seventh with 126 points. On the women’s side, where Ne braska was competing without its top two runners, the team finished fourth with 76points. Washington State won with 39 points. Leading the way for Nebraska was Lisa Graham, who completed the 6,000-mcter course in 22:28.1, cap turing 5th place. Theresa Stclling was 14th in 23:23.1, Becky Lund 18th in 23:30.4, Sylvia Veit 21 st in 23:36.0, Julieanne Campbell 24th in 23:45.7 and Kelly O’Donnell 29th in 24:03.2. No. 1 runner and team captain Katie Fletcher missed the meet be cause of illness, while No. 2 runner Fran tenBensel missed the meet to attend her sister’s wedding. “Having Fran and Katie gone was probably the difference between first and fourth, but that’s OK,” Dirksen said. “The people that were there did a really good job. “Washington State is one of the top five teams in the country, and we can run with them if we have every one. We just need to get them. There was some good competition, so this will pay off down the road.” 3 ’O' Comolouoo by SiwiwSBt Of,on,lol,oo.
