Zimmer runs for self,
excels for Nebraska
PRESSURE from page 7
“I decided either I’m not going to
run anymore, or I’m just going to run
for myself,” Zimmer said. “I didn’t
listen to what everyone was saying,
and I think that was a lot healthier.”
A freshman again, this time on
the Nebraska women’s cross coun
try team, Zimmer vows she will not
let other people’s expectations
affect her and her running abilities.
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.”

North Division’s
strong showing
pleases Solich
NORTH from page 7
over rival Iowa last month is an impor
tant step for die Cyclones.
‘ ‘I thought it was very good for their
program and very good for our confer
ence,” Solich said.
Every North Division member has
caused a stir with at least one impres
sive performance.
Kansas (2-3 and 0-3) nearly upset
Big 12 South favorite Texas A&M last
Saturday in a 24-21 defeat
Missouri entered halftime against
No. 1 Ohio State leading 14-13 inapre
season game in Columbus, Ohio.
Missouri lost 35-14.
No. 15 Colorado surprised highly
touted rival Colorado State with a con
vincing beating to open their season.
mo. o Kansas state nas impressed,
despite a controversial preseason
schedule, by averaging more than 60
points per game.
Nebraska throttled then-No. 7
Washington 55-7.
The Big 12 North thus far has the
best combined record (21-7) of any
major college conference dr division.
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.”
