6 Tuesday, March 23, 1976 LAW OR S ASSISTANT University Dally Kansan 1 Jayhawks primed for Baker following Texas trip Buoyed by some success on its annual Texas trip, the University of Kansas baseball team meets Baker University in a game at 2 p.m. at tqalley Field. KU coach Floyd Temple said he planned to start Roger Single in one of the games and would give the second game's pitching side a chance to rest the rest the thin Jawkie pitching staff. BAKER COACH HAL Jaffcoat plans to start pitchers Craig Richardson and Gary Scott against the Jayhawks. Baker will bring a 1-4 record to Lawrence. That contrasts with KU's 5-4 record, its "IWAS PLEASED with the performance of the team on the trip," he said. "We were in every game and the defense was sound with only a couple of mistakes." four losses coming during the Texas tour last week. Nevertheless, Temple was proud of his team's 2-4 Texas record because the game was not only a test for Texas at A&M, 2-0, but Texas Lutheran, 3-1. KU's losses to Illinois, 1-0; Texas Lutheran, 5-4; Trinity, 8-2; and St. Mary's, 8-2. "The hitting wasn't outstanding, but we did get a few key base hits," Temple said. BRIAN RHODES, PICKING up where he left off when he shutout William Jewell two weeks ago, stopped TEXAS &Aim; on five hits. A run in the ninth by St. Mary's cost Rhodes the shutout and the game. Rhodes, 2,1, has given up only one run in 23 innings this season. Temple said Rob Allinder, returning to the pitching form that made him a freshman. He threw for nine runs, having only six pitches on the trip forced Temple to start Allinder with only however, In the six games, the Jayhawks surrendered only 16 runs. two days rest. Allinfer's record dropped to 12 after losses to Illinois and Trinity. "Rerschen did a good job in Texas. Taylor came in and patched outstanding relief for four or five inmings until he got tired. I'm concerned about the pitching." Temple said. knew it, but Hot. Slogle is 1-1 and Love is 1-1 well SLAGLE AND MIKE Love also pitched well but洗. Shagle is 1.3 and Lowe is 0.3. Depth a concern as spring ball begins Bv ALLEN QUAKENBUSH Bud Moore and his University of Kansas football coaching staff aren't fooling around. With only 20 days of spring practice, they just can't afford to. Moore wasted little time getting his team back in full swing, putting the Jayhaws through a tough two-hour workout in full form. KU opened spring practice yesterday. Sports Editor SIXTEEN STARTERS AND 37 lettermen return from last year's 7-5 team, including three All-America candidates; quarterback Smith and defensive tackle Mike Butler. But Moore isn't guaranteeing a better season next fall. Bill Clarke, KU's No. 1 tennis player proved during spring break he could beat the best—the best being the No. 1 players from Louisiana State, Florida State, Florida Tech, South Florida and Southwestern Louisiana. "ITHINK HE'IS going to be one of the top players in the country," KU coach Kirkland Gates said yesterday. "He's winning most good plays when the pressure on him." Clarke remains unbeaten. No. 1 Clarke, a junior, is still undefeated in singles competition this year. And has now beaten the top players from what are considered top tennis schools. Gates was happy and surprised with his team's performance. KU's team didn't fare too badly either. The Jayhawks went 3-2 on their southern four, beating Florida State, Florida Tech and Southwestern Louisiana, while losing to Southeastern Conference powerhouse LSU and South Florida. "I THOUGHT WE COULD play with these teams," he said, "but I didn't think we would beat a team like Florida State. These were tough teams—probably on the whole than we will run up against in the Big Eight. Against them did we a whole lot of good. "It should really boost our confidence because now the players feel they can compete with teams they didn't think they could compete with before." MARK HOSKING, A freshman and last year's Kansas state high school championship won four singles matches for the Jayhawks at the No. 5 spot. Hosking and doubles partner Jeff Thomas, a junior, won three matches at the NHL All-Star Game. The No. 2 doubles team of junior Greg Buller and sophomore Hank Colman won only one match, but it was probably the trip's most important victory. THE JAYHAWKS WERE tied with Southwestern Louisiana at 4-all with only the No. 2 doubles left to be played. The two teams split the first two sets, and the Butler and Jennings won the third and set to give the Jayhawks a 5-4 victory over the Rogin' Caulius. "The highlight of the trip was the No. 2 doubles team, who hadn't won a match all year, and then rose to the occasion against Southwestern Louisiana," Gates said. "That's where we have had problems. But they really came through for us." Nunley's sixth only consolation Temple boasted about his defense, with Lee Ice and Ron MacDonald, who played well around second base. Carl Heinrich played what Temple called "outstanding case." He said Mark Hamifan and Randy Webb had been playing well at third. KU's gymnastics team finished in fifth place at the Big Eight championships at Boudier, Colo., last weekend, by a sixth-place John Nunley made KU trip worthy. Nunley became the first Jayhawk gymnast in two years to win a medal in the conference championship. His sixth-place score was 8.80 in the still rings. Nebraska upset champion Iowa State for the team title and won the right to play in the playoffs. Yet, despite the team's conference finish and 5-4 dual meet season record, Lockwood sounded optimistic about KU's chances next year. It was Nunley's performance that KU coach Bob Lackywood singled out, however. "I feel that with our full team we can challenge Colorado," he said. "Our goal is to beat one of the schools that beat us this year." But Nurley, like many of his teammates, competed hurt, with a strained wrist ligament and a sore back, which hampered his flexibility. "We were really proud of Nunley. I loved her length-wise and power-wise, he's as good as any." Because of injuries to key team members, KU entered only eight gymnasts, instead of the usual 12. Because Kansas State dropped out of the meet this year and Missouri and Oklahoma State have only club teams, KU's fifth was the same as last place. "It's completely unfair and unrealistic to think we should be better in 1976," Moore said yesterday. "Our depth situation is totally inadequate going into spring drills, not to mention the fact that we have gaping fills in order to be a good football team." THE BIGGEST AREAS of concern for Moore are in the defensive secondary, the kicking game and the linebacking corps. KU lost three starters from last year's defensive backfield and the lone returnee, Chris Golub, is recovering from a knee injury. Golub practiced yesterday, but was held out of contact drills. "I was very pleased with Chris," Moore said. "He's made so much progress and it means so much to him. That's one of the reasons he has made that progress." The team has been running and lifting weights since January, and Moore said he was pleased with the condition of his athletes. know how good their wind is, but as far as muscle tone is concerned, they are fine." Among the approximately 90 players practicing yesterday were two junior college transfers, Wardell Johnson and Wavne Ricks. Johnson, a transfer from Lees-McRae Junior College in Banner Elk, N.C., was a first-team NJCAA All-America halfback who gained 1,265 yards on 260 carries last year. He is expected to provide depth in the Kansas backfield. "I THINK THEY are in pretty good shape," he said. "It's not enough to Ricks, a transfer from Hutchinson Junior College, is vying for a starting spot in KU's inexperienced defensive secondary. He played for the first time in his chinson's secondary in tackles last season. **THREE PLAYERS** - linebacker Don Pile, halfback Scott McCamy and safety Diane Albert—didn't return to the team this spring. Two others, Cromwell and wide receiver Wadell Smith, will divide their time between track and football. Hallback Lauer Smith, though, is going to concentrate solely Moore is looking for improvement in several areas this spring. "I wasn't satisfied with our blocking and tackling last year," he said. "Those are still the basics of the game and for us to be able must be a better team fundamentally." sports shorts RUGBY - KU upped its season record to 4 by edging the Kansas City Bets, 12-11 and blanking Johnson County Community College.
