Wagner paces KU past OSU and WSU

Jay Wagner was victorious in the 440 and 840 yards run to lead the University of Kansas track team to victory over Oklahoma State in a triangular meet in Allen Field House.
Wagner qualified for the upcoming NCAA indoor championships with his 48.6 seconds victory in the 440 yard dash. He had previously qualified in the 600 run field with a 1:10.1 clock. KU has also qualified two relay squads.
KU dominated the meet with 92 points.
The team edged Oklahoma State for second 82½%.
In the women's competition, Kansas State prevailed with four points followed by Oklahoma State.
Wagner, a junior Walker from Ben-
nington, also won the 890 yard run in 1:56.7 as he out-leaved Oklahoma States' James Coleman at the tape.
Middle-distance runner Rick Enzel tied Jim Riyun's Allen Field House record in the 1,000 yard run with a 2.10-7 clocking. Enzs shattered his previous best mark of 12.19, which he set earlier this year against Missouri. His winning time is the second fastest run indians in the SIH. He so far has run in three NCAAs on a sheet of劝建 for the NCAA most

"I had five throws past my old PR (personal record), "Podrievebac said, "but couldn't hit 59 feet. It should come easy but he still has a long city. City This has been my best night ever."
Anthony Coleman continued to blister the hurdle events, winning both the 60 yard lows and highs. The Dallas freshman won the 60 yard low hurdles in 6.8, equifying his lifetime best, and he won the 60 yard high hurdles in 7.3.
"I've been running pretty good this year," Coleman said. "I've got a cold tonight and I'm not running my best, but I did manage to run a 6.8."
high jumpers Steve Rainbow and John Butterfield finished 1-2 in their event as both cleared 6-10. Rainbow won the competition because of fewer misses, Butterfield, a Sherman Mission junior, improved his record by one inch with the 6-10 jump.

For the past two years, it seems that everybody has wanted to knock off KU's basketball team. Now, the shoes on the other foot.

Although KU is out of the league race with a 5-6 mark, the Wildcats are in the trick of it, trailing leader Missouri by only one game and is 8-2 in league play and 17-6 on the year.
THE JAYHAWKS CAME within a point of doing the Wildcats big a favor Wednesday night, but to Missouri, 61-60. "It was a tough loss," KU coach Ted Owens said, "but I think we have a lot of pride. I'll be unanimated if we don't come back and play well."

"it's going to be harder to get back up," he said. "But since it's K-State and the crowd and atmosphere that goes along with it, that will help us."
"That's always a big game. You always want to beat them."
Ken Koenigs admitted the loss to the Tigers was very disappointing. But he doesn't think it will affect the play of the team.

Then there are the "purple poppuns" who are enough to give any opposing coach Williams and Evans have been devastated and combined to average 37.8 points a game.
KU won the first meeting with the Wildcats this year, 62-57 at Lawrence. Much of the credit for that win must go to Milt Gibson and Clint Johnson for their excellent defensive work against Williams and Evans.
“YOU KNOW THAT Chuckie (Williams) and Mike (Evans) are going to get their points,” he said. “You have to hope you can contain their front line in both scoring and blocking, but not as optimistic that we can do that that Dassie is playing as well as he is.”
With the emergence of 6-4 Larry Dassie, a transfer from Dodge City Junior College, the Wildcats have played much better. Owens thinks Dassie, 6-4 Carl Gerlach and 6-4丹德雷 may be the keys to shutting off K-Stale's offense.
KU's offense has improved in the last few seasons. Milt Gibson, Ken Koenigs and Paul

KU football coach Bud Moore has announced that 24 players have signed national football letters of intent with the Javahaws.
"Right now, I think they are playing as well as any team in the league," Owens said. "And the play of their front line is probably the biggest reason."
The group comprises 11 linenem and 13 backs. Eight of the signs are from Kane.

Mokeski have all begun doing the things expected of them.
After having problems through most of the season, Gibson is beginning to regain confidence in his shooting.
"I have to try to make them (the other team) guard me," Gibson said. "Because I haven't been shooting very well, everybody has been laying off me.
"I have to keep hitting the shot. When I do it opens up the inside game."
