Help a friend quit-call 1-800-586-4872 Kansas State has experienced edge By Jeff Griesch Senior Reporter Kansas State could be the most experienced baseball team in the con ference. The Wildcats returns starters at every position from last year’s club except for infielder Jay Kopri va, who hit .305 and was an honorable men tion All-Big Eight player. Kansas State also returns its top six pitchers. Unfortunately for Coach Mike Clark and the Wildcats, this year’s team is the same team that went 13 43 and finished last in the Big Eight in 1994. “Last year was extremely frustrat ing to me and everyone on the coach ing staff, but we really couldn’t show it on the field,” Clark said. “We knew that the nucleus of our team was seven freshmen, and we knew we were going to take some knocks. “The good news is that this year our nucleus is a group of seven sopho mores who want to show that they are better than people think.” Clark, who has a career record of 211-232 in eight seasons at Kansas State, said a winning record was the Wildcats’ goal this season. “I think if we finish around or above .500, that is a realistic goal,” Clark said. “We are too young to really challenge for one of the top spots, but I think we could finish fourth or fifth, maybe even third if we got some breaks.” The Wildcats’ most talented re turner is sophomore shortstop Todd Fereday. Fereday was selected as a third team freshman All-American after hitting .306 with 7 homers and 42 RBI. The Wildcats also return second team All-Big Eight designated hitter Matt Miller, who hit .318 with 4 home runs and 26 RBI. The junior will split his time be tween football and baseball this spring. Miller was the second-team quarterback last season and is ex pected to challenge for Chad May’s old job as the Wildcats’ signal caller next season. Clark said progress made by the Wildcats this season would depend on the success of the pitching staff. “The whole thing comes down to pitching and whether our guys can throw strikes for nine innings and be confident that they can win,” Clark said. “If we do that, we are going to have a good, competitive team this year. Top 2 Husker backs held out of practice From Staff Reports The Nebraska football team prac ticed Wednesday in helmets and shoul der pads at Memorial Stadium. Comhusker coach Tom Osborne re ported no new injuries at the close of Nebraska’s first outdoor workout of the spring. The Huskers’ I-back shortage con tinued Wednesday. For the second con secutive practice, No. 1 and No. 2 I backs, Lawrence Phillips and Damon Benning did not participate in all drill? Both Phillips are Benning are re covering from pulled hamstrings ag gravated during winter conditioning. Osborne said he didn’t expect the duo to return to full speed until next week. Osborne said he had been pleased with the Huskers’ condition so far this spring. “Overall, we have made reasonably? good progress,” he said, “but nothing to write home about.” Osborne said he expected to scrim mage on Wednesdays for the rest of the spring. Huskers Continued from Page 9 Erstad hit his ninth homerun of the season and Wulfing had three hits for the Huskers. Dalton, Meyer, Todd Sears and Motley all had doubles to help Nebraska’s attack. Motley stretched his hitting streak to 20 games with three hits against the Tigers. Senior righthander Bob Courter allowed two runs in seven innings to improve to 3-0. Despite Nebraska’s hot bats, the Huskers’ pitching staff came down with a different type of contagion — a soaring earned run average. The Huskers’ pitching staff ERA was 9.33 during the trip, which in creased the team ERA from 3.54 to 6.03. Sanders said he was concerned with the performance of the pitching staff, but he was more pleased that the hitters made up for the lack of pitching. “That’s where the team comes in, that’s picking up your teammates,” Sanders said. “The hitters said, ‘Hey, we’ll bang out enough runs until you guys get it together and throw strikes.’ And in the first 12 games, it was the other way around.” Instead of being frustrated with the pitching, Erstad said he and the other Nebraska hitters were confi dent the pitchers would regroup. “We know our pitchers are a lot better than they pitched this week,” Erstad said. “They’ll come back, and when they do all I can say is look out.” Softball Continued from Page 9 go home and play Oklahoma State tonight’,” Revelle said. “So I think they are ready.” She said the Huskers weren’t ready last year. Nebraska was 11 -15 at the start of the Big Eight and struggled through a 10-game losing streak. Revelle said her team learned a lot from last year. “The physical talent has helped the emotion and that feeds off of each other,” Revelle said. “There is no comparison to last year. Last year we were constructing, not rebuilding like some teams do for the long haul.” Another thing that might help Nebraska is having 30 games of com bined experience, Revelle said. “It gave us a chance to work the bugs out and experiment a little with the lineup,” Revelle said. But she said the time for experi mentation was over. The Huskers were 5-15 in the Big Eight last year, and four of those wms came when Oklahoma forfeited the final four games of the year. The Sooners had scheduled too many games and violated NCAA rules. After winning just one game on the field last year, Revelle said her team was happy to start with six-time Big Eight champion Oklahoma State. “Where our team wants to be at, we don’t want to start with anyone else,” Revelle said. “It should be an all-out bam burner.” Last year, Nebraska lost its first nine conference games before beat ing Iowa State. The Huskers were 0-4 at home last season in the Big Eight. All four losses came to Kansas at the begin ning of April. Revelle said a good start to con ference play would be important. “It’s everything,” Revelle said. “It can set the tone for the rest of the conference schedule.”
