10 Friday, February 22, 1980 University Daily Kansan Women swimmers open wide lead at Big 8 meet By KATHY KASE Sports Writer One trip to the Olympic Trials and two to AIWAN Nationals were guaranteed yesterday after the KU women's swimming team started its defense of the Big Eight title. KU matched first place and four conference Eight Championships in Lincoln, Neb. After seven events, KU led the meet with 304 points. Iowa State trailed with 238. Nebraska, expected to be one of KU's best teams, displayed a disappointing fourth with only 187 points. "Iowa State is for real." Coach Garv Kempf said last night. "I've got this feeling that they are going to be with us all the way to the end. They are a very real threat." Threat or not, it wasn't a Cyclone who beat KU's Tammy Thomas in the 100-yard butterfly. It was Okaianaha's Jana Wilkins with a 63.63 time. But Thomas qualified for the Olympic Trials with a 56.38 time in a preliminary run. Two of Thomas' teammates entered in the butterfly finals. Daryl Marshall took seventh and Garry Goering eighth. THOMAS WAS ALSO part of the 200 medley relay. Janet Linstrom, Mary Kay Fitzgerald, Erin McRonaw and Thomas UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Sports snared first place, grabbed a Big Eight record with a 1:47.44 clocking and qualified for AIW National in the race. "This was undoubtedly the best performance of the whole meet," Kemp said. "This time was very fast for this region. You won't find any relay in this part the country swimming the 200 medley as fast as we did today." Lindstrom continued her winning ways by placing first and qualifying for Nations in both the 600 freestyle and the 200 individual competitions. In 2:10.8, Lindstrom set a new one in the in- division medalist in 2:08.49. Ann Fields placed fourth in the event. Dennis Ellis came in fifth, Mary Kay Fitzgerald, ninth, and Jennifer Gorberd, fifth, fifth and Goerlingth in the 500 freestyle. SETTING HER FIRST Big Eight record, Fitzgerald rated in the Nation's for the breakheart Marie Kabeltz placed fifth, Sherry Arburette with G Jewell, 123. Lanny Schaffer suffered defeat at the hands of NU's Sullery Hayward, who took the lead with a 2-0 victory second with a 2.07-8 while Della Eilis took a 3-1 victory. Hopkins 106 and Jones Wilson 121. Terry Hopkins 101 and Jones Wilson 121. The 800 freestyle relay of Sally Burger, Lindstrom, Goering and Hicks took fifth at 7:56.0 time, but Kemp refused to call the performance below standard. "Every single girl that swam today has an done up働ing位, the noticeably hoarse Kempf said. "I am very, very pleased." Kempf was not only pleased. He admitted she had been a member of the team, another member Kathy Weiss appeared at the towel wearing, in addition to her swimsuit, the Baby Jay costume. The team took on the challenge. Rough start behind tennis teams By JIM SMALL Sports Writer The past few months must seem like a chapter from a Greek tragedy for the KU men and women's tennis teams. In a span of 12 weeks, the teams have lost two coaches, but two important men's matches postponed because of snow, and female players to academic ineligibility. Val Block, former No. 1 singles and doubles player, will not play the remainder of the season because of grades. Coach Hosking made the announcement this week. "It will definitely hurt the team," Hosking said. "She is a super tennis player and we could depend on her to go out and win her doubles and singles matches. It will be a big loss." HOSKING AND his players will have little to lose in the second game. The team travels to Springfield, Mo., this weekend to face Stephens College and Tulsa and Southwest Missouri State. Hosking said that senior Mary Stauffer would replace Block at the No.1 singles spot. She will also join Block's former doubles partner Karen Guilafol, at the top double spots. Despite the loss of Block, Hosking said that he expected KU to return with a 3-0 record. "From what I know," Hasking said, while he face. Stephens usually has a couple of girls who aren't too bad, but neither them nor Southwest Missouri State are real friends. "WE are in desperate need of a match. We have been playing well in practice but I think that we have to learn to be careful. The practices have been getting stale because it's hard to keep fueling up our team." Most of the men's team will practice until either the postponed matches are rescheduled, or until the team goes on its spring break trip. But Chet Collier and Bill Krizman will get a taste of real competition this weekend. The duo has been invited to play in the Sheldon-Coleman National Invitational Doubles Tournament in Wichita today and tomorrow. According to Hosking, the 32 best doubles teams in the nation are invited to the tourney. "It will be a good experience for Chet and Bill because they try to get every All-American here," he said. "I'm not sure the two of them are ready to compete with some All-Americans, but just being invited to the tournament is a great credit to their ability." 738 MASS. 9-30 8-00 M-9 Thure. till 8-30 p.m. sua films Friday & Saturday.

Call or Visit By CHICK HOWLAND Iowa State will be in town tomorrow afternoon for a dual meet with the Jayhawks but for this dual no one is laughing. Maupintour travel service Sports Writer 843-1211 900 Mass. — KU Union The meet begins at 2 p.m. in Robinson Natatorium. Swimming coaches pay close attention to times in events, and Spains is no exception. In particular, he has been trained on times made by Iowa state swimmers. "Iowa State, on paper, has to be" favored to win the Big Eight this year. KU coach Bill Spahn said. "They have people (in times) than any other team." THE 'HAWKS HAVE not been able to beat Iowa State in dual action since Spahn came to KU two years ago. "They have more people ranked in the top six times in each event," he said. "In fact, I don't think they've been beaten in a Big Eight dual by anyone since 1974," Spains said. Spin watches these times closely. He figures out where his team stands in the Big Eight and just what KU will have to do with the third straight conference championship. One problem the 'Hawks have had in the Big Eight this year is the lack of competition. The KU men have easily won the Big Eight rival that has come their way. The problem isn't always a lack of talent on the opposing squad, however. Moat coaches don't share Spahn's philosophy of going all in due in mutual instead of using meets to build up for the Neb meet March 46 in Lincoln, Neb. "Iowa State is a lot like us," Spahn said. "They swim hard in dual meets." BY THE CURRENT times, according to Spahn, Iowa State might be favored to steal KU's crown. IOWA STATE, ON the other hand, is usually a team that likes to go all out, as its victory streak indicates. The Cyclones finished second in last year's Big Eight meet. The addition of some fine freshman talent and a new face for the team, State has Cycle coach Coach Grosweth believing that his team could make up the 62 points that gave KU a victory in the tournament. "WE HAVE IMPROVED along with our staff, and we've been week spot, the distance race events, with the addition of Meyer," Growesh said. "I feel we have an excellent shot at winning."
