The Nebraska women’s basket-*
ball team is ready to focus on get
ting back to the NCAA Tbumament.
“We had a good summer and got
everything in order,” Coach Angela
Beck said.
That good summer includes
what Bede considers to be the best
off-season ever fir the Comhuskers.
“Two weeks after we lost to
Colorado State in the NCAA Tbur
nament, we started working,” she
said.
With the help of John Archer,
the team’s strength coach, Beck said
NU will be physically prepared to
open its inaugural Big 12 season in
November.
Beck said the new conference
will be one of the best in the nation.
“With the addition of Texas and
Texas Tfech, the Big 12 is probably
the second best conference behind
the SEC. We’ve surpassed the ACC
and the Pac 10 on pure strength,”
Becksaid.
Nebraska lost starters Pyra
Aarden and Kate Galligan from last
year's team but will welcome six
freshmen to the squad when prac
tice opens next month.
“We’ll have problems with in
experience right away” Bede said.
"We’ll have a deep squad, but we’ll
also have to move people around a
lot.”
Six newcomers will join the
team this fall, including Renee
Saunders, who has been placed on
basketball scholarship but continues
to play volleyball. Saunders* a
sophomore in volleyball, will be a
redshirt freshman on the basketball
court.
Brooke Schwartz, 5-foot-ll
point guard from Gering; Charlie
Rogers, a 6-2 forward Smith Sioux
City; Nicole Kufaik, a 5-10 guard
from Cambridge; Cisco Gilmore, a
6-foot forward from Tulsa, Okla.,
and walk-on Jill Fosdick, a 5-10
forward from Lincoln Pius X will
also compete for playing time.
NU returns its top two scorers
from last year, Tina McGain and
Anna DeForge. Beck said she is
counting on McGain to be the
team’s on-court leader early in the
season.
“Tina McClain is capable of
being a great player fcnr this team,”
Beck said. “We’re going to lean on
her for points early in the season and
may even ask her to play a little
more inside than she did last year.”
Guards Jami Kubik, LaToya
Doage, Amy Gusso, J.J. Jurgens,
Anna DeForge and Sheila
McPherson, forwards Kate Benson
and Con McDill and cento* Emily
Thompson also return.
“We’re going to struggle a little
bit early on,” Beck said. “We have
a chance to start off good, but we
need to have four players in double
figures and work on the interior
game to do that.”
hi conference, Beck said Ne
braska will chase Colorado and
Kansas in the Big 12*s North Divi
sion.
And is the school’s fourth trip
to NCAA Tournament—and first
back-to-back appearance—in the
cards for the women this season?
Beck said yes.
“We want to get back to the
NCAA’s,” she said. “We can even
get into the second round or farther,
but we need to mature as the sea
son goes on.”
Krondak attacks
leadership role
KRONDAK from page 9
From day one, Krondak and
Nebraska volleyball were a perfect
fit She attended her first match
when she was in fourth grade, and
two years later she was at every
home match.
By the time she was a ninth
grader, she knew she wanted to play
(m the college level. And if NU
came calling, she said, she was go
ing to answer yes. Pettit had a head
start recruiting Krondak. His daugh
ter Katherine, now a freshman at
Colorado State, played with
Krondak for three seasons at Lin
coln East.
Pettit said players like Krondak
and true freshman Tonia Thuke —
who has played a large role in
Nebraska’s first six matches—are
the reason the Huskers have been
able to maintain a high level of suc
cess.
“This program just has high ex
pectations,” Pettit said, “and one of
the reasons that Jaime is perform
ing well and Tonia is performing
weU is they’ve been around the pro
gram so much that they know ex
actly what has to be done.”
