Monday, May 5, 1980 University Daily Kansan 13 KU conference baseball season ends with four losses By KEN DAVIS Sports Writer The Kansas baseball team ended its Big Eight conference season over the weekend and it was an appropriate finish. Kansas received fine performances from two of its opponents, including games. But KU lost four times to the Nebraska Cornhuskers in Lincoln, Neb. "I's just one of those things." Floyd Temple, KU coach, said. "When we got good pitching, we got no hitting. When we got bad pitching, we got excellent pitching. That's been our problem all year." KU LOST TO the Cornhuskers 24 and 17 on Friday and then dropped games 3-4 and 14-8 Saturday. In the opening Saturday, the Hawks defeated the fect game. The Jayhawks went to Lincoln with hopes of winning three games and knocking off Wisconsin, which May 10 in Oklahoma City. Instead, the 'Hawks, with a 10-10 conference record and 24-18 overall, had to settle for a third place finish in the Eastern Division of the conference and will miss tournament action for the second straight year. The Cornhoppers finished first in the tournament and also beat Missouri to second in the division and will also advance to the tournament. Oklahoma State and either Oklahoma or Colorado will play in the championship. Because it is possible that Oklahoma or Colorado would enter the playoffs with a losing record, Temple would like to see a format change. UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN "I THINK THERE'S no question that our mission is the strongest," Temple said. "We've proved that the last two years, just the way it is, so we have to accept it." "But I've always been in favor of an eightamendment tournament. That's the way the basketball tournament is. You participate all year just like everybody else. It gives the team a chance to play better, good conditions and a super atmosphere. Weid it the first year of the tournament and Sports each team took back about $2,000. But for the last three years, we've done it this way. Nebraska dashed most of the Jayhawks' playoff hopes on Friday by sweeping the first two games. Jim Phillips pitched a two-hitter for KU in the opener, but the Cornhuskers made both safeties count on the way to a 24 victory. PHILLIPS, NOW 8-3, took a no-hitter in fifth innning but infiltrated from the pitcher. Mark Frieke and Steve Oakley both hit doubles. That gave Tigers it run it needed for pitch Bintzle-7.5. The Jayhawks had five hits in the contest, but stranded seven runners. "Burke is one of the better pitchers in the conference," Temple said. "But again, in the early going, we left runners on every timing and we just can't do that. Burke's needed to and that's the name of the game." After falling behind 5 in the nightcap on Friday, KU put together a five-fifth inning and took the lead. KU cashed in on four hits and three nebraska errors in the **NEBRASKA RESPONDED** with six runs in its sixth innning, however, and went on to win the game five times, two hits in the sixth, but took advantage of four: walks and two KU errors. Müllin Hichon, an outfielder, struck out. On Saturday, Nebraska needed only one KU men's track team wins triangular meet For most of the KU track team it was more fun than work. Nevertheless, the Jayhawks won a triangular meet victory over Kansas State and Wichita State universities to claim the title of Kansas' best college track team. The Hawks stepped away from their standard lineup, freely substituting and placing competitors in unfamiliar events. The first KU points came in the 440-yard relay as Lester Mickens broke away from Wichita State on the last leg to preserve the win. The Tigers beat a team of jumpers Jay Reardon, Steve Conbats, Mark Hanson and Sanya Owolabi finished second. RICK ENSZ, another athlete competing in an unfamiliar event, captured the 800-meter run with a personal best time of 1.90 t. "I hadn't run an open half in four years, but my goal was to qualify for national's." I was amazed. "I prepared for this race. Lester Mickens was ready to do it. He scratched I had to try to do it on my own." Ensz failed to qualify for the nationals. The 'Hawks showed strength in the sprint events, with Mike Ricks winning the 400- meter dash and Tim Jones coming away with a victory in the 100-meters. Ricks time of 46.26 led teammate Rodney Bullock by more than a full second, while Jones squeaked out a 10.61 clock to beat Wichita's Henry Peel by 36. In Kansas, Kansas Deen Hogan appeared the next day with 40 meters to be pulled up with a strained leg. IN THE POLE VAULT, Jeff Buckingham continued his winning ways with a 16-6 victory over teammate Maeve Buckley. 172-11 ¼. Friemann, who has a personal best of 185-6 in the discus, was the Jayhawks lone event in the event. Bradley, however, came back to record a victory in the shot put. The K-State strongman heaved the shot 60%4, easily winning the Wichita State of Wichita State with a best toss of 58%.3 In the most exciting event of the day, KU's Matt Friedemann defeated K-State's junior sensation Ray Bradley in the discus. 179-70 The Jayhawks other first place finishes came in the triple jump, when Steve Conbs said 51-49% in the mile relay where a makeshift KU team of Leonard Martin, Jim Scaninelli and Rodney Bullock ended with a winning time of 3:13.4 HEATHERWOOD VALLEY APARTMENTS NOW LEASING FOR SUMMER AND FALL Ask about our special Ten Month Leasing Heatherwood Valley Apartments furnished or unfurnished with 1, 2 and 3 bedroom models with paletos or batios in a pool area.

"Phillips and Hicks both pitched very well for us," Temple said. "It just happened that those other guys pitched better." "The team did a great job. We didn't play bad golf. The girls have come a long way this spring." victory to clinch the divisional title and Faust, a senior left-hander, made sure the Cornhaskens got it. Faust blanked the Jayhawks with a perfect performance. Faust, 7-1, had the Jayhawks fooled all day and didn't allow a base runner. Dick Lewain came closest to reaching base, but his sinking line drive to the ground was grabbed by diving Jo Scherger. The Jayhawks will travel to Topeka a afternoon to play a double-hander against Washburn.

The perfect game overshadowed a fine performance by KU pitcher David Hicks, who was the distance yielding only four Nebraska hits, Mark Hass, Cornhusker hitter Jake Porter and Cornelius homer in the third inning and the Cornhuskers added another run in the fifth. In the final game, Nebraska jumped out to an 8-1 lead after three innings and then held on for the sweep. KU had a big sixth inning pushing across six runs.
