Women in tourney
Lawrence volleyball fans will have plenty of action to watch tomorrow when KU hosts a United States Volleyball Association tournament. Five universities and 13 USVBA clubs will be playing at two locations in Lawrence.
The A class, for higher caliber teams, will play in Robinson Gymnasium. The class is composed of Kansas, Kansas State, and Oklahoma State universities, and five of the USVB clubs.
The B class, made up of the KU junior varsity, Washburn University and the remaining eight VSUBA clubs, will play its matches in the Lawrence High School gym.
Each class will be broken into two five-team pools. Pool play is scheduled to start at 8:30 a.m. in both gyms. Semifinals are scheduled for 6 o.m. and p.m. at 7:30.
The KU variety is scheduled to play at
morning, evening and morning at 1:30
and 4:30 on Tuesday.
KU coach Bob Stanclift said that Nebraska was considered the favorite in class A, but that any of the teams could win the title.
"We've got the four top Big Eight teams and Wichita State, which are all pretty equal," he said, "and some of those USVBA clubs are pretty good. The Wichita State team and the Lincoln (Nebraska) Volleyball Club won the USVBA regional last year."
Besides the KU teams, Lawrence will have two USVBA clubs in the tournament, one in each class. The Lawrence Spikers, made up of former college players, will play in the A class, and Lawrence High Coach will put together a team to play in the B class.
"We're hosting the tournament to get people in the community interested in volleyball" Stancliff said. He explained that the tournament would be held in New York and would be formed from KU's volleyball team.
"If the matches are played in the times they're scheduled, we'll have 12 hours of volleyball. Stancliffe said. "That should allow us a chance to watch at least some of the games."
Stancliff said his biggest problem with the tournament was getting officials.
"This was kind of a bad weekend for getting officials because of the football game," he said, "and some people who were available didn't want to have to officiate for all the tall over looking for people but finally managed to find enough qualified officials."
Lady's Cup on line
The waiting game ends Sunday for the KU Rugby Club.
The Jayhawks and the Kansas State Rugby Club battle in the third annual First Lady's Cup match at 1:30 on the rugby field at 23rd and Iowa streets.
KU's rugers have been waiting a year to return the cup to Lawrence after losing it
last fall when K-Statedote had 11-8 victory,
and he won the first game two years ago by a score of 17 to 12.
Rick Renfro, who played in both previous matches, said that Sunday's game was "a really cool game."
"it's going to be a real good game," Renfro said. "We haven't had a good week in practice because of the weather but everyone's really up for this one."
Olivia Bennett, wife of Gov. Robert Bennett, has been invited to Lawrence to present the cup to the winner again this year.
Squad to scrimmage
The Kansas basketball team will hold its second preseason scrimmage at 2:30 this afternoon in Allen Field House. The public and there is no admission charge.
Absent from the scrimmage will be 6-4 transfer Jay Hurt. Head basketball coach Ted Owens announced yesterday that Hurt, a forward who transferred to Kansas this fall from Alleghany Community College in Alabama, will leave the squad and transfer at the semester.
"Jay has decided he would prefer to transfer to a school closer to home and to a school where he has a better chance of playing." Owens said. "Withdrawing from school will transfer to attending the semester will allow him to maintain two years of eligibility."
Runners to regionals
Hoping to qualify for the national NCAA meet, the KU women's cross country team is running in the Region VI meet today in Ames, Iowa. The top three teams and the top 13 individuals in the meet will qualify for nationals.
Because of the talent of the competing teams, KU coach Teri Anderson said the Jayhawks would need a good race to finish high enough to qualify.
"Of the nine regions in the country, ours is the toughest," she said. "State州 state will probably be the top two this year. We'll probably be in the running with Missouri."
Michelle Brown, Oklahoma City sophomore, has been the Jayhawks' top runner this year and has the best chance of earning an individual spot. Anderson said.
"We hope we can get more people than just Michelle qualified," she said, "but it's still a long way to go. Our team has been improving steadily and everybody will have to keep improving to qualify."
