Track Team Places 27th At National Indoor Meet The Jayhawks scored only five points at the NCAA, held in Detroit, and placed 27th. The University of Kansas track team is trying to forget last week's NCAA Indoor Meet and concentrate instead on the upcoming outdoor season. Danny Seay's 25-12 leap placed third in the long jump and Terry Porter, defending champion in the pole vault, placed fourth with a 16-3 effort. Randy Smith, high jumper, qualified in the meet but did not place, and Theo Hamilton, long jumper, skillfully because of a bruised ankle sintered the Big Eight indoor meet two weeks ago. Thad Tallley, assistant coach, was not disappointed with the team's effort. "We were real pleased with our men's performances," he said. "We thought we would score a little better than we did, but it was just the circumstance of that day." “It’s more or less a guessing game,” he said. “It comes down to who makes it and who misses. You lay it on the line—it’s an all-or-nothing situation.” Talley said that in a meet like the NCAA, there was not much difference in the abilities of one person and another, it all came out as performed the best on that particular day. "We were weak this year in the indoor meets because of our lack of good middle distance runners," he said. "The outdoor meets don't have as many of these events." Kansan Staff Photo by DON PFANNENSTIEL The first outdoor track meet for the 'Hawks was to be the Wichita State Relays at Wichita on April 6, but KU recently closed in to the Wichita State this weekend at Wichita. Despite the frustrations of the indoor season, the Jayhawks are optimistic about the upcoming outdoor track meet in Valley. The team would be the fewer middle distance events. USC$ 1 Mare Suffron sank three free shoots, USC$ 3 Trojan lead to 28-20, but then the Trojan led to 40-36. After USC took its final lead at 37-35, two free shots by junior Steve Green and one by sophomore Scott May put the Hooliers on top. With a score of 50-38 to 50-39 and lead was never challenged. "We wanted to get some experience under our belts before the regular outdoor season started." Talley said. "We had several trips, and we learned how to get together and scheduled a meet." Talley said the team should do well at Wichita. He said they would be experimenting with placing people in different rooms to make sure people show how the team was progressing. Freshman Kent Bentenson, who finished with 17 points, quickly rallied Indiana to a 26-0 victory. Reserve forward Bob Wilkerson also chipped in as the Hosiers, scoring in streaks, expanded their lead to 71-53 with eight minutes left. Knight was assessed a technical foul over protest of an apparent Trojan floor error. Indiana Tops Southern Cal In New Meet Referee John Overby called a second technical on Knight's continued protest and ejected the Hoosier coach on a third technical violation. Green. The 24 points led all scoring for Ivanne. The Hoops hit 10 per cent from the篮筐. The Hoosiers, who trailed 25-20 when Coach Bob Knight was ejected from the game, broke away to a 40-37 lead at half-time. ST. LOUIS (AP) - Eleventh-ranked Indiana, incensed by the loss of its coach, stormed from behind midway in the first half to rout Southern California, 85-60, and win the inaugural College Committee basketball tournament last night.
