The Cornhuskers will play nationally ranked Kansas Sunday at Lawrence, Kan., and Missouri at Columbia, Mo., Monday. NU men’s tennis to battle best, worst in Big Eight this weekend By Jeff Singer Staff Reporter It’s going to be a weekend of ex tremes for the Nebraska men’s tennis team. The Comhuskers will play Kan sas, the Big Eight’s lop team, in Lawrence, Kan., on Sunday . Nebraska will then travel to Columbia, Mo., on Monday to play Missouri, one of the worst teams in the league. In Sunday’s match, Nebraska will be trying to avenge an earlier loss to the Jay hawks, whoarc ranked 22nd in the nation and arc 4-0 in league play. The Huskers lost to Kansas 5-1 in the ITCA Regional Team Tournament last November in Dcs Moines, Iowa. Nebraska’s No. 1 singles and doubles player Joseph Kahmc said the Huskers were capable of surpris ing the conference leaders. “I really think we can puli the upset as long as everybody wants it,” Rahme said, ‘if Kansas is resting on their laurels and our guys arc more hungry, we can beat them.” The Huskers are 1 -3 in conference play and 7-10 overall following last weekend’s losses to Oklahoma Slate and Oklahoma, in which Nebraska was beaten 8-1 and 9-0, respectively. NcbraskacoachKerry McDermott said his team needed some success this weekend to help its confidence. “After you’ve lost three matches in a row, you’re anxious to get a win in the score book,” McDermott said. The Huskers arc almost guaran teed a win against their opponents on Monday. The Tigers have not won a Big Eight match since their program was reinstated in 1986, and have consequently lost every conference match 9-0 since that lime. McDermott said his team would be successful against Missouri as long as none of the Huskers were overly confident. “If we play up to our ability, we should beat them 9-0, no questions asked,” McDermott said. “But the kids in their program arc getting tired of losing, and upsets happen when you overlook teams.” Rahmc agreed with his coach. “Upsets happen when you lake a match too lightly,” Rahmc said. “But we’re belter at each position and should beat them 9-0.” Tennis team takes to road By Jeff Singer Staff Reporter It will be do or die lime for ihc Nebraska women’s tennis team this weekend. The Comhuskers’ destiny will be in their own hands when they lake to the road to battle the Big Eight’s top two teams — Kansas Stale and Kan sas. Nebraska will play the Wildcats Saturday in Manhattan, Kan., and travel to Lawrence, Kan., Sunday for its dual with the Jayhawks. The Huskers will finish their con ference season on Monday against Missouri in Columbia, Mo. If Nebraska makes it through the weekend undefeated, the Huskers will be in good shape to make a run for the Big Eight title at next week’s Big Eight Championships in Kansas City, Mo. Husker freshman Fraukc Hachl -H Before we started the Big Eight season, our aim was to finish fourth. But now we have the chance to better our expecta tions. Hachtmann, NU women's tennis player —-ft - mann, who plays ai No. 2 singles and at No. 3 doubles, said Nebraska will determine its own fate this weekend. “Before we started the Big Eight season, our aim was to finish fourth,” Hachtmann said. “But now we have the chance to better our expectations.” The Huskcrs, who are 2-2 in con fcrcncc play following last weekend’s 5-4 upset over Oklahoma in Nebraska’s home finale, will be competing in their only Big Eight matches away from Lincoln. Nebraska coach Scott Jacobson said he is anxious to play the Jayhawks, who arc undefeated in Big Eight play and arc ranked 19th nationally. “Of the three teams we’re going to play, Kansas is the best,” Jacobson said. “You’ve always got to look for ward to these types of challenges.” Another challenge for the Huskers this weekend will be their ability to stay in the hunt for numerous individ ual Big Eight titles. Nebraska’s No. 3 singles player Ann Flannery along with No. 4 player Rachel Collins arc both 3-1 and the Irontrunncrs for netting individual titles. The pair is also in contention for a title at No. 1 doubles, as they have earned a 3-1 record against their conference rivals.
