that’s won championships in three
different schools, that’s been coach
of the year in three different confer
ences ... he brings all that experi
ence.
“Then he gets the quarterback that
he can control who happens to be his
son, and it makes for a great team.”
And a balanced one. After Hous
ton’s scoring, Oklahoma State’s four
other starters average a combined 41
points per game.
“They’ve got great chemistry,” Nee
said.
But Nebraska will try to break that
unity, guard Jose Ramos said.
“We’re going to have to protect
our home court advantage against
them,” he said. “It pumps you up
when you go out there and see it’s
standing-room-only, the fans waving
the little white towels.
“It’s a great atmosphere, a great
college environment,” Ramos said.
NU gymnasts
to meet ISU
By Erik Unger
Staff Reporter
Nebraska and Iowa Slate have
women’s gymnastics teams going in
opposite directions.
The Comhuskers are undefeated
while the Cyclones are 0-2. The teams
will meet Sunday at 2 p.m. at the Bob
Devaney Sports Center.
Two injured Nebraska gymnasts,
CeCe Ocel and Shane Foster, have
returned and are growing stronger
while two injured Iowa State gym
nasts are out for the season.
Cyclone Brecke Houston, a two
year letter-winner from Omaha, has a
knee injury and Kristin Moore in
jured both elbows.
That leaves the Cyclones with only
one senior, co-captain Janelle Emer
son, and two juniors, Lisa Boekcloo
and team leader Kathie Jo Kindler.
Despite this, Iowa State scored 187.1
at home against Oklahoma. Nebraska’s
best home mark is a 185.25 scored in
a victory over Missouri last Sunday.
Nebraska coach Rick Walton said
Iowa State is similar to the Huskers
on the beam and floor and has the
same weakness — the uneven bars.
But, Walton said the Cyclones do
more twisting on the vault, which can
help accumulate points.
Walton said the Huskers spent the
first two days this this week working
on moves to add difficulty to their
routines and the rest of the week in
serting the moves into individual
routines.
Walton said he hopes the increased
difficulty and a healthier squad will
push his team over 190.
Walton said intrasquad competi
tion on the beam and uneven bars has
increased, so he expects a couple of
lineup changes.
Iowa State coach Mike Sharpies
said he has a lot of respect for Ne
braska’s program and is expecting a
tough match.
“I don’t sec a weak gymnast on the
(roster),” he said. “Nebraska has a
ton of talented freshmen.”

Coach calls gymnast winner
By Todd Cooper
Staff Reporter
Nebraska men’sgymnastics coach
Francis Allen said he knows he has a
winner in freshman Dennis Harrison,
one comparable to a couple of former
Olympians.
“He’s so aggressive,” Allen said.
“There are just some people who may
not do well in practice and then can
perform great in meets. Jim Hartung
and Scott Johnson were that way, and
I think Dennis is, too.”
Hartung and Johnson were Com
huskers and Olympic gymnasts.
Harrison said dial comparison may
be a bit premature.
“It’s a big honor, but I don’t know
if it’s real just,” Harrison said. “I
mean, you’re talking about two of the
greatest Olympians the United States
has ever had.”
Besides, Harrison isn’tcomplctcly
healthy. He underwent arthroscopic
surgery on his shoulder three days
after the Big Eight Invitational in
November. Harrison injured the shoul
der during a training camp this sum
mer.
“It’s been more of a pain in the butt
than anything,” Harrison said. “It’s
been frustrating — knowing that you
could be performing better than you
are."
But Harrison hasn’t performed all
that bad since the surgery. Last week,
Harrison was third in the all-around at
the Big Eight Invitational — behind
Nebraska’s Brad Bryan and Che
Bowers — despite the shoulder, Al
len said.
"It was my first all-around since
the surgery, so I was happy," Harri
son said.
But Harrison probably was most
pleased with his performance at the
USA championships this summer. The
Omaha freshman was 22nd overall in
the competition that included some
of the best collegiate gymnasts in the
nation.
“I was the highest performer just
out of high school,” Harrison said.
“That really helped me here — just
knowing that I didn’t fall apart during
the competition."
Harrison said the youthful Husk
ers (four of the top six gymnasts are
freshmen) have relied on meets like
that during their first season at Ne
braska.
“No one’s inexperienced here,”
Harrison said. “We’ve all either
competed at the Gym Nationals or the
Senior Nationals. And the seniors (Brad
Bryan and Ted Dimas) let you know
what to expect at meets like this one
at Ohio State.”
Harrison said the Huskcrs antici
pate a “good, but not great team” at
Ohio Stale.
“This meet will be a good measur
ing stick of where were at and where
we want to be for Minnesota.”
Minnesota, last year’s NCAA
runner-up behind Nebraska, comes to
Lincoln Feb. 9 — Nebraska’s first
home meet of 1991.
