2 113.2.1.1.1.1.1 Page 12 University Daily Kansan, March 5, 1981 Randall enjoys two coaching positions By CYNTHIA HRENCHIR Sports Writer Ross Randall is a hard man to find. He's seldom in his office and rarely is at home. As the grass greener and greener, the more often Randall can be found on the golf course. Randall, for the first time, is coaching both the men's and women's KU golf teams. ITS A CHALLENGE that Randall, a California native, enthusiastically accepts. He took the position of director of golf at the Coyote Golf Club in Los Angeles when he began coaching the men's golf team. Randall's other duties include administrative work, running the junior golf programs and giving private lessons. Randall replaced Liam O'Neill as coach. Bahan is an assistant women's basketball coach. Both teams have been practicing since the beginning of this semester, preparing for spring tournaments. The cold weather prohibited their outdoor practice, Randall arranged for a practice area inside one of the buildings at Haskell Indian Junior College. In return, he advised golfers fellows. But with last week's practice he was able to be able to practice on the Alvamar course. "Every day we get like this is a bonus," he said last week. The two teams get along well and sometimes practice together. prince legend. "THEER IS NO competition." Randall said. The first men's tournament, the Gulf Coast International, will be March 16-20 on Padre Island, Texas. The women's first outing will be March 19 at the Tulsa Winter Games Invitational at Huntley, Texas, March 30-31. The men are scheduled to golf in five tournaments this spring, the women in four. Both teams will finish their regular season with the Big Eight Championships at Alvamar. The number of tournaments can present time conflicts for Randall. tending meets. Fischer is also an apprentice in the ProGolf Association program. That's where Tommy Fischer, a graduate student from Overland Park, comes in. Fischer graduated from Northwestern University in 1984. Randall has no plans to expand the number of tours the two teams take next year. "TRIPS ARE worthwhile, but there are two things that stop us from expanding. First, the amount of school the team members can miss, second, we need not on weekends. Second our budget is limited." The optimistic Randall is already looking ahead to recruiting for next year. "They are doing all they can do to help us," he said. "The outlook for leams next year will depend on the recruiting season." he said. Randal said he thought that he and the KU athletic department were working together顺 **THAT SHOULDN'T be a problem, according** *Marsh Burgess*, a member of the women's team. "Our coach is a lot of help, a definite addition," she said. "He is enough to make any high school athlete." Birdsong leads Kings past San Antonio, 111-97 Bv United Press International SAN ANTONIO, Texas--After nine consecutive losses, the Kansas City Kings have finally beaten the San Antonio Spurs on the Snurs' home court. Otis Bitschison scored a game-high 39 points, 20 in the second quarter, as the Kings defeated defense 114-90. IT WAS the first victory for the Kings in 10 games at the Hemisfair. Coupled with Boston's 108-101 victory over Houston, it boosted the Kings to a new season-high 34. In the Midwest Division with a record of 34-36. The Spurs lead the division with a record of 45-25 and have already clinched a spot in the top-four. The Suns have been unable to keep up. Kings are still battling for a playoff berth, along with Cleveland. 33-34 before last night's game against Utah. Besides breaking a winless streak in San Antonio, the Kings' upset victory also broke the Dodgers' hold. THE KINGS outscored the Spurs 27-14 in the second quarter and took a 56-40 lead at the half. Kansas City built a 28-point advantage early in the fourth quarter before the Spurs pulled to within eight points, 102-94, with 3:39 remaining in the game. It was the play of San Antonio reserves Moore, Ron Brewer and Michele Wiley that brought the Spurs back into contention. San Antonio out- scores Kansas City 36-20 in the final quarter. Besides Moore's 16 points, Brother Wiley each scored eight. Other San Antonio scorers in double figures were Rich Johnson with 12 points and Paul Silas with 11.

BIRDSDONG, THE FIVE leading scorer in the NBA, has scored in double figures in every game except one this season and has scored more than 20 points in 46 games. Swimmers want to swipe Big 8 title from Huskers By JIM SMALL Sports Writer Heading into last year's Big Eight men's swimming championship, the Kansas men's swim team had beaten Nebraska twice by a score of 71-58. But when he ended up taking the conference crown. Kansas coach Bill Spahn said he hoped KU's 84-68 victory over Nebraska two weeks ago was not a bad omen as the Jayhawks compete at this year's Big Eight Championship in Norman, Okla. The meet starts today and runs through Saturday. KANSAS WILL BE out for revenge against the 19th-seeded Arizona State in the year championship while the next year, newcomer Kentucky, will face. "We had beaten them twice in duals last year," Spahn said. "I think that our team entered the conference meet a little overconfident. The team failed to realize that beating a team in a dual meet and beating a conference meet are two different things." But the Jayhawks have learned from their mistakes, Spahn said. "We know better now," he said. "Our attitude heading into conference is much superior to what it was last year." THE PROPER ATTITUDE and two Big Eight Championships might help the Jayhawks upset Nebraska, which is favored in the meet. Senior Steve Graves and sophomore Gardner Wright are the only swimmers on the KU team to have won conference championships. Graves set a conference mark in the 200 and 400 individual medleys and Wright is the back champion in the 100 and 300 basketball. "Steve and Gardner know what it takes to win in the Big Eight," Spahn said. "Their leadership is important to our team." Graves and Wright won't be alone in their efforts to return the conference championship to KU. SOPHOMORE BOB Vince, who recorded the top conference time in the 500 freestyle, broke the school record in the 1,000 freestyle earlier this year. Kansas also will seek support from freshman Ken Grey in the 400 individual medley, sophomore Chuck Neumann in the 200 junior and junior Jian Rowland in the 200 butterfly. Spahn said the key to the meet would be the diving events. "Nebraska is, by far, the strongest diving team in the conference," he said. "If we can stay with them in the diving while out-swimming them, we can beat them." ALTHOUGH MOST Big Eight coaches have picked Nebraska to repeat as conference champion, Kansas holds several of the best regular-season times in the conference. Jayhawk swimmers now hold top conference marks in the 200 individual medley, the 200 breaststroke and the 500 freestyle events. "The team has made great progress this year, and we've improved to the point where I don't think that we have any weak areas," Spaad said. "We're in a situation where we're relying on every individual on the team to do well. I feel very good about our chances."
