NCAA hopes teeter
after series loss
By Jeff Griesch
Senior Reporter
The Nebraska baseball teams’
hopes for earning a bid to the
NCAA Regional Tournament took
a blow after losing four of five
games to Iowa State.
But none of the Huskers, in
cluding Coach John Sanders, are
sure of the impact the series loss to
the Cyclones will have.
“It’s too far to tell on that,”
Sanders said. “I’m not into specu
lation; I’m into coaching hard
working players.”
But senior shortstop Darin
Petersen said the losses to Iowa
State may put the Huskers in a
familiar position.
The Huskers may have to win
the Big Eight Tournament to earn
a regional bid.
“We wanted to be sitting good
for a regional bid without having
to win the Big Eight Tournament,”
Petersen said. “That was one of
our goals before the beginning of
the season, but losing four of five
to Iowa State makes that almost
impossible.
“I don’t think any of us are
counting on a regional without
winning a lot from here on out.”
Pitcher and designated hitter
Alvie Shepherd said the Huskers
had to put the losses to Iowa State
behind them.
“In my worst nightmare I never
would have thought this was going
to happen — that we would lose
four to Iowa State,” Shepherd said.
“But we can’t allow ourselves to
feel the pressure of having to win
a lot of games. We just need to go
out and play hard.”
Nebraska has four series left,
against Kansas State, Kansas, Okla
homa and Oklahoma State.
The Huskers are coming off a
stretch of playing 13 games in 11
days, and Shepherd said Nebraska’s
schedule gave the Huskers hope
for a postseason berth.
“We ’ ve been through the rough
est part of our schedulenow,” Shep
herd said. “There is only room to
improve.”
The Huskers begin the final leg
oftheir season against Kansas State
tonight at 7 p.m. at Buck Beltzer
Stadium. Nebraska closes its sea
son series with the Wildcats at 3
p.m. Wednesday.

Intense pitching game
shuts out Iowa State
By Derek Samson
Senior Reporter
Nebraska is hoping to continue
what Comhusker pitcher Cody
Winget started.
Winget helped the Huskers
avoid a 5-0 sweep by Iowa State in
the season series with a two-hit,
complete-game shutout of Iowa
State Sunday.
The Huskers need more good
pitching performances like that to
stay in the race for a regional bid,
Winget said.
“I wanted to go nine innings,”
he said. “I wanted to shut these
guys out to show diem they can’t
come in here and beat us every
time. They just found a way to beat
our butt this weekend, so this was
important.”
But Winget was facing a num
ber of obstacles in the Huskers’ 4
0 win.
He was once again trying to
regain the strength that he lost
after getting sick with mononucleo
sis in late February. And Winget
put forth a performance he has
been expecting to have all season.
“We had a talk as a team before
the game and came to the conclu
sion that we needed to play with
more intensity,” Winget said. “We
were getting outhustled and
outplayed. I took it that I had to set
the tone and shut them out. I knew
the hitters would do their jobs.”
Winget posted a 5-3 record last
year and expected big things from
this season.
But he was sidelined with mono
nucleosis, and its effect still lin
gered.
“Every time I go to the mound,
I wonder if I’m 100 percent,” he
raid. “I’m just trying to find the
groove I had before. I thought this
year that I was going to get the job
done, but it set me back.”
Until Sunday.
“Tliat’s been my best perfor
mance since I’ve been sick,”
Winget said. “I’m gradually get
ting back to where I was before I
got it. I’m not completely over it,
though.”
Doubles teams
are runner-ups
From Staff Reports
The Nebraska men’s tennis team
may have finished fifth in the team
standings at the Big Eight Champi
onships last weekend, but the

Andy Davis and No. 2 doubles Rick
Stempson and Fredrik Riesbeck fin
ished runner-up in the Big Eight, die
league announced Monday. The
champions were determined by regu
lar-season round-robin competitions.
Maizey and Davis were 11-10 on
the year and 2-3 in Big Eight play,
while Stempson and Riesbeck were
3-4 and 2-3.
