Owusu's blazing 400 doesn't translate into win
BY KRISTEN WATERS
Members of the Nebraska
track team took their respec
tive abilities to the next level at
the Tyson Invitational in
Fayetteville, Ark., on Saturday.
The resulting personal
bests didn’t translate into wins.
The stellar competition, which
included national powers
Arkansas, LSU and Big 12 rival
Texas, made sure of that.
The case in point was All
American NU 400-meter
sprinter Lesley Owusu. The
junior ran a blistering 52.74,
just .01 of a second off her per
sonal best, which also was the
nation’s fastest time coming
into the weekend, and still fin
ished second. South Carolina
sophomore Demetria
Washington took the gold, and
the nation’s 400 lead, with a
time of 52.40.
The silver medal didn’t dis
appoint Nebraska Coach Gary

Pepin in the least — Owusu did
defeat the defending 400
meter indoor champion,
Mikele Barber, also of South
Carolina.
"Lesley ran a solid race
against great competition,”
Pepin said. “It’s good to see her
finish so strong among the
nation’s best.”
Other NU highlights
included senior Jessica
Thompson, who finished third
in the high jump with a provi
sional qualifying mark of 5-9
%.
Junior Jenna Lucas came in
third place in the mile with a
personal best time of 4:59.74,
while sophomore Kathryn
Handrup also recorded a per
sonal best time of 10:08.26 in
the 3,000-meter, and Leann
Boerema finished fourth in the
shot with a throw of 49-7 Vi.
In men’s competition,
sophomore Phillip Lucking
finished fourth in the shot-put
with a throw of 54-8 Vi, sopho
more James Debruh finished
fourth in the mile with a time
of 4:13.98, and junior Nick
Brethouwer finished fourth in
the 35-pound weight throw
with a toss of 59-2 %.
Several Huskers also fared
well in Saturday’s Golden
Spikes Meet portion of the
invitational, which included
non-collegiate<€ompetitors.
All-American junior Shaun
Kologinczak led the way for the
Huskers as he jumped a season
best 7-2 Vz to finish third in the
high jump. Kologinczak’s leap
was enough to give him an
NCAA provisional qualifying
mark for the second time this
season.
Meanwhile, the NU 4x400
meter relay team finished 11th
in a season-best time of
3:15.36.
Nebraska will next see
action at home as they host the
Prairie Wolves Invitational on
Saturday.

Bears hand
NU sixth
Big 12 loss
BY JOSHUA CAMENZIND
The Nebraska men’s basket
ball team received another first
hand glimpse on Saturday of how
hard it is to break bad habits.
Barry Collier’s Huskers are
also finding out
first hand that
wins are coming
far and few
between, while
the habit of starting slow lingers.
NU again stumbled outof the
gates at Baylor and fell to the
Bears 69-58 on Saturday.
The Huskers, now 11-12 on
the season, shot 37 percent in the
first half against the Bears and
turned the ball over 11 times
against the stingy Baylor defense.
The result was a 36-26 half
time deficit that again put NU in a
hole it couldn’t dig itself out of on
the road.
Just as they have all season,
the Huskers battled back in the
second half to make it a ballgame.
Following a Wendell
Greenleaf jam, the Bears took an
11-point lead on NU with 8:17 left
in the game. But the Huskers did
n’t quit
NU’s two heroes of the day,
Brian Conklin and John
Robinson, led the charge on a 10
0 run, giving the Bears only a one
point advantage with five min
utes remaining.
During the spurt, Conklin hit
two 3-pointers, and Robinson
added two running jumpers to
ignite the Husker comeback.
^uxiK.ilii wuum leau in u in
scoring with 18 points, making
five of seven shots from beyond
the arc. Robinson would add 12,
and Steffon Bradford added 11.
But the Bears weren't fazed by
Conklin's 3-point exhibition, not
NU’s new-found ability to take
care of the ball (only three
turnovers in the second half).
Nebraska would go cold from
that point on, and its last two
points would come on two free
throws from Robinson with 1:30
left in the game.
Baylor would surge ahead and
grab the win by converting seven
of eight free throws. BU capped
off the win with a Terry Black
alley-oop slam.
Collier said he was proud of
his team's handling of the ball in
the second half and of the 6-foot
11 Conklin’s career day.
“He probably felt as comfort
able as he has allyear,” Collier said
on his postgame radio show.
For the game, NU shot21 of 50
from die field and eight of 25 on 3
pointers. Cookie Belcher, who
came into the contest averaging
16.3 points per game to lead the
Huskers, was held to two points
on the day. NU’s second leading
scorer, Kimani Ffriend (13.6 ppg)
contributed only three points, all
free throws.
Baylor was led by DeMarcus
Minor’s 17 points, and Greenleai
and Chad Elsey added 13 apiece.
Black continued to showcase
his all-around game and aerial
skills in the contest, totaling 12
points, five rebounds, four assists
and four steals.
The win upped the Bears
record to 15-6 overall and 4-6 in
the conference, while NU
dropped to 4-6 in Big 12 play.
Collier said he told his players
he appreciated their effort in the
game and that type of perform
ance was the one he wanted them
to bring to practice on Monday
and show in their next game with
Kansas State on Wednesday night
