Softball team finishes season
with tournament loss to Kansas
By John Adkisson
Staff Reporter
The Nebraska softball team ended
its season with more than a whimper
Saturday.
After battling back from a two-run
deficit late in the game, the Com
huskcrs lost the lead again and fell 5
3 to Kansas in the Big Eight Softball
tournament in Oklahoma City.
Nebraska, which had beaten Iowa
State and lost to Missouri earlier in
the double-elimination tournament,
ended its season at 22-18.
Senior starter Stephanie Skegas took
the loss for the Huskers and finished
the season at 13-9. Skegas had pitched
18 scoreless innings, including a
shutout over Iowa State, on Friday.
After falling behind 2-0 against
Kansas, Nebraska had trouble mus
tering any offense against Jayhawk
starter Shelly Sack. But in the top of
the sixth inning, senior Ann Haisne
hit a three-run home run to give the
Huskers their first lead.
Kansas battled back, scoring three
runs of its own in the sixth to ice the
win. Two Husker errors contributed
to the rally, and the final two runs
scored when Nebraska first baseman
Misti Guenther was called for not
having her foot on the base while
receiving a throw from Skegas.
Sack, a North Platte native, im
proved to 13-1 with the win.
Nebraska almost entered Saturday
with a 2-0 tournament record, but
Missouri exploded for a five-run 12th
inning Friday to send the Huskers to
the losers’ bracket.
Three Nebraska errors contributed
to the huge inning for Missouri. Skegas
gave up eight hits in the game and
took the loss.
The only bright spot for Nebraska
was Friday’s first-round win over Iowa
State, the Huskers’ first tournament
victory since 1989.
Catcher Kris Vucurevic drove in
one run with a sacrifice fly in the
fourth and Tracy List scored on a
double steal in the fifth to give Ne
braska the victory.
Denver beats Omaha Royals
OMAHA, Neb. (AP) —Jim
Olander hit a two-run homer
and doubled, and Cal Eldred
pitched seven strong innings as
Denver posted a 3-1 American
Association victory over Omaha
on Sunday.
Denver is 10-10. The Royals
dropped to 7-14.
Olander’s homer, his second
of the season, gave the Zephyrs
a 2-0 lead in the third inning off
losing pitcher Jim LeMasters,
1*1. Olander doubled in the
eighth inning and scored on Tim
McIntosh’s single.
Eldred, who brought a 0-2
record and a 9.82 ERA into the
game, checked Omaha on three
hits for seven innings. He walked
none and struck out nine in
posting his first Class AAA
victory.
Omaha’s only run off Eldred
came when Nelson Liriano
tripled in the fourth and scored
on a wild pitch.
The Royals attempted to rally
in the bottom of the ninth. Singles
by Bob Hamelin, Jeff Coninc
and Harvey Pulliam loaded the 'r~'
bases with none out off reliever
Jeff Kaiser.
Kaiser then got Stu Cole to
hit a double-play grounder back
to the mound. Bill Davins re
lieved Kaiser and struck out Tim
Spehr to record his second save.
Omaha and Denver were
originally scheduled to play a
doubleheader Sunday but de
c ided to play just one because of
cold weather. The teams area
scheduled to play a doubleheader
today. Andy McGaffigan, 0-0,
and Dera Clark, 0-1, will pitch
for Omaha against Denver’s
Narciso Elvira, 0-1, and Jim
Hunter, 3-0.__

Lopez wins
tight match
in Classic
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - Nancy
Lopez mounted a late push with bird
ies at the 15th and 16th holes Sunday
to win the $425,000 Sara Lee Classic
by two strokes over Kris Monaghan.
Lopez tied the course record with
a 7-under 65 during Friday’s first
round and finished with a 54-hole
total of 10-under 206 to claim her
44th LPGA Tour victory. She shot 71
on Sunday on the 6,242, par-72 Her
mitage Golf Course.
Lopez, who is expecting her third
child in November, led the tourna
ment throughout until Monaghan, who
shot 70 Sunday, took the lead with a
birdie-3 at No. 7. Monaghan moved
to 11 under, three shots better than the
field, with eight holes remaining before
Lopez began her surge back to the
lead.
Lopez matched par on the back
nine until reaching the par-4 15th,
where she rolled in a 30-foot birdie
putt.
The LPGA Hall of Famer, who
took home a $63,750 winner’s check,
backed up that birdie with a 10-foot
putt at the 16th to take another stroke
off par.
“I scrambled a bit on the frontside,
and I was just trying to keep things
going,” Lopez said.
Monaghan enjoyed a superb front
nine, starting with an 8-foot birdie
putt at No. 1 and adding another 8
footer for birdie at the fourth before
rolling in a 5-foot putt at No. 5 to go
9 under.
The seven-year pro caught Lopez
at 10 under when she sank a 12-foot
birdie putt at the seventh and found
herself alone in the lead minutes later
when Lopez missed an 8-foot putt for
par at the same hole.
A birdie-4 at the eighth pushed
Monaghan to 11 under, but the for
mer University of New Mexico stand
out missed a 22-foot putt for par at
No. 9.
A 30-footer for birdie at the par-4
10th pushed Monaghan to 11 under
again before her round began to turn
sour.
A poor wedge shot resulted in a
bogey-6 at No. 11 and she later buried
her ball in a trap off the 14th green
and three-putted from 30 feet at No.
15. Monaghan won $39,312.
Sherri Steinhauer, who began the
final round one stroke out of the lead,
never mounted a charge, finishing
with a 73 and a 7-under 209 total for
the tournament. She took a third-place
check of $28,687.
A battle of LPGA Hall of Fame
members never materialized as JoAnne
Camer, who began the day two strokes
off Lopez’s pace, shot a4-over 75 and
wound up at 212. Camer, who has 42
career LPGA victories, was seeking,
ha first tournament victory since 1985.
