Zimmer said she learned during her sophomore year of high school that the past cannot repeat itself. “My sophomore year was a bad year,” Zimmer said. “People expect ed all of these great things from me, and I couldn’t deal with that” And even though Zimmer does n’t want to deal with people’s expec tations while at NU, she knows those expectations are part of being a collegiate athlete. “Jeannette is pretty advanced for a freshman,” NU Cross Country Coach Jay Dirksen said. “She has made a good transition to college running.” That easy transition has helped Zimmer in her first three meets as a Comhusker. She led the Husker women in each of those meets and earned an individual victory at the Bearcat Classic in Maryville, Mo., Sept 5. ' * I-- - Because of her early success, Zimmer said she already is facing expectations. But this time, Zimmer is pre pared for those expectations. “I let people have the expecta tions they are going to have,” Zimmer said. “But I’m just going to run for myself and see what hap pens. “In the past, expectations meant everything to me. Now, they don’t mean a lot” Dirksen said Zimmer possesses a strong work ethic and shows self discipline. He knows her will and dedication will help her deal with the pressures of collegiate athletics. “Jeannette shows a lot of com mitment in whatever she does,” Diiksen said. “She has adjusted to college well.” Zimmer is confident too. She knows she has learned how to deal “I do things for myself now,” Zimmer said. “%u can’t expect the past to repeat itself. It’s never going to happen. You have to create things for yourself.” 66 Jeannette shows a lot of commitment in whatever she does Jay Diresen NU cross country coach ■■IMIliMIlllWliMM : • ^ igjfe /*- \z*-. M M i-rit «#.

Colorado Coach Rick Neuheisel said the competitive division reflects college football as a whole this season. “People thought we heaf a lesser •team in Fresno State,” he said. “But they turned around and beat B YU who beat Arizona State. “You better strap it on every week.” v Snyder, whose Wildcats play Colorado this week, agrees with the assessment “You’d be foolish to feel comfort able,” he said. “Anybody can beat any body.” Husker women 3 games shown on Fox From, Staff Reports The Nebraska women’s basketball team will get increased television expo sure this season, as the Comhuskers are slated to play three games on Fox Sports Net in 1999.
