Several Comhuskers competed over the summer, giving them valuable experience against some of the top competition in the world. On the women’s side, sophomore Angee Henry won the long jump at the national Junior Olympics. Sophomore sprinter Mark Graham competed at the Commonwealth Games. However, Graham hurt his hamstring, Pepin said, and that ham pered his performance. Pepin said the return of 1993 Big Eight long jump champion Robert Thomas would be a major factor in an area with which the Huskcrs had prob lems last season. “I think Robert’s return will help our long jump,” Pepin said. “Hopeful ly he can do a good job in the sprints, too.” 1994 NEB TRACK Coach - Gary Pepin While some Huskers prepared for next season, others had off-season sur gery to repair for the upcoming season. Pepin said All-American senior sprinter Shanclle Porter had surgery on her injured foot, which kept her out of the outdoor season. Porter will be able to run once the outdoor season rolls around, Pepin said. Porter has used up her eligibility for the indoor season. Junior sprinter Kathy Travis also had surgery on her foot. Pepin said Travis had made good progress, and he was optimistic that she would be ready for the indoor season. Also on the women’s side, senior thrower Dagmar Pcsakova had minor surgery on her wrist. “Virtually everybody is in good health, and there arc no major wor ries,” Pepin said. Pepin said he had been busy this summer recruiting, because the Husk ers had picked up only four recruits after last year’s indoor season. As September begins, Nebraska almost has completed recruiting for the season, and Pepin said things had gone well. “We’ve done a good job of getting a good group of athletes,” Pepin said Pepin said the men’s team had few scholarships to offer, but the athletes he recruited should be able to contrib ute right away. On the women’s team, which was the No. 1 dual meet team last year, Pepin said he still was looking for more players. “We’re hoping at the end of the semester the wheelbarrow will fill up,” he said. Although recruiting has gone well, Pepin still isn’t sure how well every one will do. “You never know what you have until a couple of meets into the sea son,” he said.

My understanding is that he asked for a transfer or release. We would be will ing to put him back on scholarship at semester if he wants to stay.” Osborne said that because Worthy was taken off scholarship, he with drew from his fall classes. NOTE: Nebraska got its first taste of hitting since its victory over West Virginia with a two-hour practice Wednesday in full pads. The Huskers ran live pass protec tion and five live plays from the goal line. Fourth-string quarterback Monte Christo sprained his thumb, and Osborne said Christo was question able for today’s practice. “We had a fairly heavy practice today, and it went all right,” Osborne said. “Nobody hurt in a major way. Monte Christo sprained his thumb a little bit. I hope he's able to throw (Thursday), but I question whether he can or not.” Save the Environment RECYCLE the Nebraskan When finished reading the Daily Nebraskan, please place in a newsprint recycling basket mounted on selected Daily Nebraskan circulation boxes.
