OSU coach still positive
despite Huskers’ shutout
By Derek Samson
Staff Reporter
Despite Nebraska’s55-0 thrashing
of Oklahoma State on Saturday, Cow
boy coach Pat Jones was able to point
out some positives on his team’s side
of the ball.
“I thought we looked better run
ning the ball than at any point this
year,” Jones said. “1 was really pleased
with Mark (Williams) and John
(White) at tailback.”
Oklahoma Slate attempted only
three passes and Jones said that the
conservative offense was due partly
to the wind conditions.
“I didn’t think we would be effec
tive throwing against these people,
especially with the wind,” Jones said.
“We arc not real good under still
conditions so we didn’t want to throw
loo much with that wind.”
One Cowboy goal was keeping
Nebraska from breaking big plays
like the previous year in Stillwater,
Okla., when the Huskers’ 49-15 vic
tory over OS U was keyed by two long
touchdown runs by Derek Brown.
Husker I-back Calvin Jones spoiled
that goal again this year with touch
down runs of 90 and 48 yards.
“We thought going in we had to
play lights-out defense — which we
didn’t — and we gave up the big
plays,” Jones said.
In comparing Nebraska to No. 3
Michigan, Jones said the Huskers were
a better running team, but the Wol
verines had a better passing team.
“There’s a reason (the
Comhuskers) arc leading the country
in rushing,” he said. “Michigan is a
better passing team and might be a
little more physical.”
The 32-point underdogs gave up
366 yards rushing and 140 through the
air to Nebraska, compared to the 155
yards they gained.
“It just boiled down to us being
outmanned,” Jones said. “I’m not as
frustrated right now than when we left
Fort Worth (after the Cowboys’ loss
toTCU).”
The Cowboys, last in the country
in total offense, were without their
No. 1 quarterback, No. 1 split end and
No. 1 flanker, who were all suspended
from the game for disciplinary rea
sons. Jones said he expected them
back next week.
Also missing was No. I tailback
Raphael Denson, who was out with a
neck injury. ^
“He could have played if it came
down to that, but we were trying not to
use him,” Jones said.
Baseball Day attracts 41 alumni
By Tim Pearson
Staff Reporter
Winning wasn’tcvcry thing,allcast
not at the Nebraska Alumni Baseball
Day on Saturday.
“Most of us probably didn’t even
know what the score was,” Steve
Sianicck, who played for the Huskers
from 1980 to 1982, said. “It’s not
really the game (that attracts me), it’s
the people.”
Forty-one former Huskcr baseball
players participated in the third an
nual alumni game.
Among those was one active major
leaguer.
Kip Gross, who pitched for Ne
braska in 1986, played for Los Ange
les this year. He compiled a 1-1
record with an earned run average of
4.18.
Gross said that it was nice to come
back to Lincoln.
“I enjoyed it,” he said. ‘‘It’s nice to
see everybody and have a good lime.”
The point of the game was for
‘‘everybody to get a swing” at bat,
Mike Harlander, the event’s orga
nizer, said.
The white team beat the red team
6-3, overcoming the game’s only
home run, which was hit by Shawn
Buchanan in the bottom of the second
inning.
After the game, a home run hitting
contest was held. Former Husker All
American Paul Meyers, now an assis
tant at Nebraska, won the competition
for the second year in a row.
Although winning was not of im
portance, it was important for the
players to do their best, Slanicck said.
“You don ’ t want to cm barrass your
self out there,” he said.
Husker baseball coach John Sand
ers said he “thoroughly enjoyed” the
game.
“The biggest part of it is having all
the players back and seeing them en
joying themselves,” he said. “We’re
all winners on a day like this.”
Huskers swiftly polish off Tigers
By Jeff Singer
Senior Reporter___
Once again, ihc Nebraska volley
ball team made a long road trip for a
quick job.
ThcCornhuskcrs, who have swept
their last six matches, polished off
Missouri 15-5, 15-6, 15-3 on Satur
day in Columbia, Mo.
Nebraska has won 19 straight
games since Wyoming forced the
Huskers to a five-game match in Sep
tember.
Husker volleyball coach Terry
Pettit said his team’s improved play
had contributed to the Nebraska’s re
cent rash of sweeps.
“We definitely have been playing
better, and we’re playing with a lot
more confidence,” Pettit said.
Pettit said the Tigers were
overmatched against Nebraska.
“Against this team, the key was
getting the ball over their setter.”
Pettit said. “Physically, they couldn’t
stop us.”
The Huskers won their 23rd straight
match against Missouri and improved
their overall record against the Tigers
to 36-2-1.
Pettit said Missouri had improved
over last year.
“Missouri’s team was stronger than
they’ve been in the past,” Pettit said.
“They were getting a lot of side-outs,
but they had trouble running pointson
us.”
The win, before 187 fans at the
A
HcamcsCenter, improved Nebraska’s
overall record to 10-2 and its confer
ence mark to 4 -0. The Tigers dropped
to 12-5 and 1-4.
The Huskcrs were propelled by a
.404 hilling percentage compared to
Missouri’s .214 average. Seniors
Stephanie Thaler and Eileen Shannon
led the Nebraska hitters, as each hit
.500 in the match.
Despite his team being in first place
in the Big Eight and having gone
through one-third of the conference
schedule unscathed, Pettit said he still
didn’fknow if Nebraska was the team
to beat in the Big Eight.
“There’s still a couple of teams we
haven’t played like Colorado and
Kansas State, so that remains to be
seen,” he said.
