NE 68502 KU dominates Big Eight I By Vince D Adamo Staff fteporter Ifthe Kansas basketball team’sNew Year’s resolution were to win every game, the Jayhawks are off to a good start. The third ranked Jayhawks will enter Wednesday night’s showdown against Iowa State with an 18-1 over all record. For the first time since imm 1971, Kansas is 6 Williams 0 in the Big Eight. The 1971 Jayhawk team finished 14-0 in the Big Eight and 27-3 overall, losing in the Final Four. In the 25 years since Kansas’ per fect season, only Missouri’s 1993-94 team has finished the league with a perfect record. The Jayhawks have trailed at half time only twice this year and won both times. Kansas has made a habit of break ing games open in the second half, and Jayhawk coach Roy Williams says it has nothing to do with his halftime speeches. “It’s like boxing,” Williams said. “Sometimes you have to spar a couple rounds. We make the adjustments, and the kids play better.” Kansas boasts a deep frontcourt with a lot of size. On Sunday at Allen Fieldhouse in Lawrence, Kan., Kansas State coach Tom Asbury witnessed firsthand the Jayhawks’ power during Kansas’ come-from-behind 72-62 win over the Wildcats. “They wear you down,” Asbury said. “They’re deep and talented.” Sophomore Raef LaFrentz is a key Big Eight Standings Team Conference Wins Losses ■>' "'"t v# Vj Iowa State 5 1 Nebraska Overall Wins Losses I 16 4 15 7 part of the frontcourt. LaFrentz is av eraging 13.8 points and 8.5 rebounds per game. Williams said LaFrentz’s development had been a key to the Jayhawks’ success. “Raef s doing a lot of good things,” Williams said. “We need him to stay active like he’s been doing.” Kansas, which finished the month of January with a 10-0 record, starts three j uniors, a sophomore and a fresh man. True freshman Paul Pierce, who scored a season-high 25 points against Nebraska, is averaging 13.4 points per game.* All five Jayhawk starters average double figures in points, and none of Kansas’ three seniors average more than six points per game. Aaron Steckelberg/DN Iowa State coach Tim Floyd says the Cyclones w ill have their hands full on Wednesday night when they travel to Lawrence to challenge the Jayhawks. Iowa State is 16-4 overall and a surprising 5-1 in the conference — good for sole possession of second place. “They’re terrific. They have great depth,” Floyd said. “It’ll be a difficult game.” But if the Jayhawks win Wednes day night, Floyd said, it wouldn’t be because the Cyclones were on the road. “It will be because the Kansas Jayhawks are a good basketball team.” Eierman Continued from Page 7 The following year as a sophomore, he claimed All-American honors with a 30-14 record at 142 pounds. As a junior in 1993-94, Eierman battled Justin Ware for the starting spot at 142 for the first half of the season, competing in several open meets and seven duals. But he missed the entire second half of the 93-94 season because of the deaths of his brother’s girlfriend and one of his best friends in a car accident. Eierman was granted a hard ship for the 93-94 season, and wrestled again as a junior in the 1994-95 sea son. That would give him a fifth year to finish his fourth season of eligibility. However, Penrith said opposing coaches at last weekend’s duals ques tioned the validity of the hardship. Under NCAA rules, a wrestler can be granted a hardship season if he com petes in less than 20 percent of a team’s competition. Penrith said compliance officials would reexamine Eierman’s 1993-94 season today to see if he exceeded the 20 percent limit. llw Since the hardship season has al ready been cleared once by the NCAA, Penrith said he thought Eierman would have no problem remaining eligible. If he is deemed ineligible, Nebraska’s dual victory over Okla homa would have to be forfeited. Brenden Continued from Page 7 “I would like to play a lot better than I have and raise my level of play up a few notches,” Brenden said. Brenden is a player who is very dedicated to her teammates, Beck said, and never puts individual goals ahead of the team. After weekend victories against the Sooners and Oklahoma State, Brenden said, the Huskers still have hopes of winning the Big Eight championship and earning a good spot in the NCAA Tournament next month. “She’s the type ofkid that you want to have on your team,” Beck said, “not the opposing team.”
