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

said.
And effective.
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.”
