That conditioning program not only
helps him in triathlons, but makes
him better in the pool, too.
‘Triathlons give you an extra edge,”
Larson said. “I come into the season

out is the hardest part. He said he gets
tired of cycling and running while
training for triathlons.
Keeping intensity up toward the
end of swim season also is hard, he
said, especially after training for
months without a break and knowing
that once that ends, his triathlon sea

“It gets old after a while,” Larson
said. “I just hang in. (Triathlons) are
my chance of being somebody.”

Huskers had begun searching for a
way to stop the bleeding. Northern
Illinois, 204, took command from
the opening tip, led by as many as 10
points in the first half and went to
halftime up 43-36.
The two teams traded baskets early
in the second penod, with King con
verting three three-point plays. He
drew Nebraska to within 5149 at the
14:37 mark when he a hit a free throw
after a dunk.
Then Northern Illinois charged
again, retaking an eight-point lead
behind the three-point shooting of 5
foot-10 senior guard Donald White
side. His last three-pointer put the
Huskies up 62-54 with a 11:52 re
maining.
Nee said he felt that Whiteside,
who finished with 16 points and five
three-point goals, never missed.
After Nebraska had whittled the
Huskie lead to 68-64, King took oyer
the game, battling for inside position
and drawing fouls on the Northern
Illinois front line. King hit six straight
free throws to tie the game 70-70,
then canned a 15-footer for the Husk
ers’ first lead, 72-70 with 4:28 left.
Nebraska never trailed after that and
scored the final eight points.
The 40-point effort tied King with
Jerry Fort, who set the record against
Missouri in 1975. The 40 points are a
Sports Center best. With 23 second
half points. King fell one short of the
record of 24 held by Fort and Dave
Hoppen.
King, who ended up 12 of 16 trom
the floor and 16 of 19 from the free
throw line, said he wasn’t thinking
about the record during the game.
“I had no idea,” he said. “The only
thing I noticed during the game was
that my free throws kept adding up.”
The win gives Nebraska a 22-4
record and tied them with teams in
1919-20, 1977-78 and 1982-83 for
most wins in a season. The Huskers
have four regular season games left,
along with the Big Eight tournament
and probable NCAA bid in March.
Nebraska will travel to Columbia,
Mo., Wednesday to face Missouri at 7
p.m.

King tips teammates tor big night
By Todd Cooper
Staff Reporter
After devouring a meal fit for a
King, Husker center Rich King gave
all the credit to his feeders.
The 7-foot-2 senior center scored
40 points on 12 of 16 field goal shoot
ing and 16 of 19 free throw shooting
in an 82-73 victory over Northern
Illinois on Monday night. His output
lied Jerry Fort’s all-time scoring rec
ord set in 1975 and surpassed the
Sports Center scoring record.
But his assist men deserve the
dessert, King said.
“I give the credit to the whole
team,” King said. “It’s been our trade
mark — the unselfishness — and that’s
not a cliche, it’s our strong point.”
And on a night on which King was
the only Comhusker player to score
in double figures, he appreciated the
assists even more.
“It’s hard for the people on our
team that are great scorers to come
down and turn down their offensive
opportunities because our strength
might be going inside,” King said.
But guards Jose Ramos and Keith
Moody, who had four and two assists,
respectively, fell obligated to give
the ball to King. Northern Illinois’
tallest starter was 6-7.
“It was obvious that every time
Rich King got the ball he cither scored
or they fouled him and he made his
free throws,” Ramos said. “You’d be
crazy not to go into him.”
Ramos proved his sanity.
“You can check the tape,” Ramos
said. “Ninety percent of my passes
were probably inside to him.”
And most of those passes came
from the lime the Huskers were down
62-57 with 11:36 to play until they
led 77-73, at the 2:07 mark. King had
eleven points during that run.
“1 said, ‘Rich, you’re the man here,
you’re hot, I’m giving you the ball,’”
Ramos said.
“Jose was saying that the whole
game,” King said. “And Jose’s very
aware of who’s got the hot hand, but
they all started saying, ‘Post up, we’re
coming to you.’”
Moody said he was glad King gave
his teammates a place at his table.
“It felt real good both ways be
cause he’s scoring and we’re getting
credit for the assists,” Moody said.
“He gets all the pub (publicity), but
deep down inside we know that Jose
and I were a big reason for his suc
cess.
“As long as he commented about
us, we’ll be satisfied.”
Men’s gymnastics: Coach
Francis Allen said the team is gel
ling ready to compete against Okla
homa this weekend. “We’re trying
to get our meet routines down,” he
said. The team had been doing well
in practice, Allen said. “We didn’t
practice as well today,” he said. “I
think we practiced too hard yester
day.” . . . Wrestling: The Com
huskers continued to work toward
the Big Eight championships, Coach
Tim Neumann said. “We had the
second day of two hard practices in
I
a row,” he said. “We’ll probably
go a little lighter tomorrow.” Neu
mann said the team is as healthy as
it’s going to get, with All-Ameri
can Corey Olson the only wrestler
out. Olson will miss the rest of the
season with a knee injury. . . .
Men’s swimming and diving:
Coach Cal Bentz said the team
went through a hard workout.
“We’ re getting ready to taper down
for a championship performance,”
he said.

CU’s Wise gets
player of week
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP)
— Colorado guard Steve Wise
was named Big Eight basket
ball player of the week for scor
ing 43 points in wins against
Kansas State and Iowa State.
The senior from Detroit added
eight assists, seven rebounds and
three steals in the games. He
was 14 for 27 from the floor,
including hilling six of nine from
three-point range.
Wise had 28 points against
Kansas Slate and added 15 at
Iowa Slate. The victory over the
Cyclones ended a 56-game streak
of Big Eight road losses for the
Buffaloes, which dated back to
the 1982-83 season.
“Ever since my freshman
year, the streak has been on my
mind,” Wise said. “I’m glad it’s
over.”
