Nebraska victory excites swim team
By JIM SMALL
Sports Writer
The Kansas men's swim team is on a streak that will hopefully bring the Jayhawks their 11th Big Eight Competition. The Kansas team and team members are excited about it.
KU is fresh off a victory this weekend against reigning Big Eight champion Nebraska and will carry a 4-4 record in the championships next month in Norman, Oka.
"THE TEAM IS real confident and ready to go, said junior sprinter Jim Rowland." The biggest thing about us is that we are consistent. Everyone has swum consistently well. A lot of other Big Eight teams haven't done that."
Much of the reason for Rowland's optimism can be found in the Nebraska match.
Before the meet, KU Coach Bill Spahn said that for the Jayhawks to win the Big Eight Championship they would have to pull out of the playoffs if did just that, pulling off a 68-45 victory.
With the big Jayhawk for an audience, Kansas diver Ben Spencer heads for the water during Saturday's dual swim meet with Nebraska at Robinson Natatorium. The Jayhawks defeated the Cornhunkers 68-45.
KU started off at a torrid pace in the meet, winning the first four events.
"I think that we took them by surprise at the beginning." Spahn said. "I think that our winning those first few events got them a little down."
Leading Kansas was Rowland, who won the 200-meter freestyle and 100 freestyle, Bob Vince, who captured the 500 freestyle and co-captain Steve Hood, who set a pool record in the 200 individual medley with a time of 1:54.32.
NOT ONLY DID the Jayhawks swim well, but Spahn said that he saw
potential in KU's diving. Nebraska is considered by most coaches to be the Biz Eight power in diving.
"We really showed improvement in diving," he said. "Mark Murphy finished second in three-meter diving. I was very pleased."
Rowland said he expected greater things out of the Cornhuskers when the two teams meet at the conference championships.
"We beat Nebraska twice last year by a wider margin than Saturday's meet and they turned around and won Big Eight Championship," Rowland said.
Sphain also expects a tougher test from Nebraska later in the season.
"We SWAM WELL Saturday, but in three weeks it could be different," he said.
If Nebraska wants things to be different they will have to reckon with Grewt because, according to Spahn, the driving force is the driving force behind the team.
“There is no doubt that he is the leader of this team,” Spahn said. “Everyone on the team knows that and everyone on the team respects him.”
"I have been aware of him for several years," Nebraska Coach Cal Benz said. "He is a fine swimmer and an outstanding young man. I have a lot of respect for him as do the swimmers on this team."
For four years Graves has been a mainstay in the KU program. He has been an active member of KU.
every year that he has been at KU and is expected to be among those competing for national honors this year in Austin, Texas.
LAST YEAR WAS perhaps Graves finest year. He finished 4th in the 100 breaststroke at the NCAA meet at Cambridge, Mass.
"I enjoy competing in the national's because it gives me a chance to see different parts of the country," he said. "It's just a lot of fun."
Graves has broken six Big Eight
records and is the current conference record-holder in the 200 and 400 individual medleys. He also holds school records and records from the 200 and 400 individual medleys.
But the story of Steve Graves goes beyond his accomplishments in the pool, according to Spahn.
"He'll be a very successful person in what ever he does," Spahn said. "He is a very hard worker at whatever he does, and that means that wants to do well in life and he will."
Graves, perhaps better than anyone else, displays the qualities that make the good student athlete. Competing in a sport that requires 6:30 a.m. practice to go along with two-hour afternoon workout, Graves still manages to maintain a 3.5 grade point average with a major in accounting.
"FOR AS MUCH and as hard as we work it is pretty hard for anyone to do well in the classroom, "Spahn said. "It is good to believe that he is doing so well."
Graves prefers to shrug off his classroom achievements as part of a daily routine.
"I just sit down after dinner to study," he said. "It takes a little discipline and a lot of studying on weekends, but most of the other guys on the learn do well in school also. I don't know that I'm different from anyone else."
Graves said that he was also optimistic at the Jayhawks' chances at the conference championship.
KU women's loss should help against KSU, KU coach says
By SANDY CLARK Sports Writer
If there's any such thing as a timely loss, Kansas women's basketball team may have had one Saturday.
Taking their No. 3 ranking and 10-game winning streak into Detroit, the Jayhawks were riding high. So high that the unranked Titans caught them in KU paid the price, losing 62-46 and killing six in the national rankings.
The Jayhawks will have a chance to show renewed respect for their opponents when they meet the Kansas City Chiefs in Allen Field House. Tioff is at 7:30.
KU Head Coach Marian Washington was more grateful for the loss than bitter
The Jayhawks' overconfidence was understandable considering that they had won nine of their last 10 games by 20 points or more. At times during that period they even when they didn't play their best.
"THEERE NO DOBUT about it that this loss will help us," she said. "We've played 24 games and won 20 of them. I think things like this happen for a reason. This might have been just what we needed to push us."
But KU, with a second-rate effort, couldn't get past a surprisingly tough Detroit team. The Jayhawks shot only 30 percent from the field and 50 percent from the free throw line. They suffered a miserable drought in the first half, missing all six of their free throw attempts.
That performance could be easily forgotten with a victory over K-State tonight.
"TM SO GLAD we have this K-State game so soon." Washington said. "I will help us forget that whole bad experience. I know the kids are eager to

KU has had the upper hand in both contests against K-State this season, winning 85-60 in January and 88-64 days later in Manhattan. The Wildcats had won 21 straight games against KU on their home court before that loss.
tonight, they will have swept the season series for the first time ever.
"We've never had a year where we've won every game from them in a season," Washington said. "I'm hopeful that the kids can do it. We have to teach them. The sing and show more important element is intensity."

Next Lecture, Take Note of the System
If you're having trouble taking notes in some of your classes, it could be because you're hearing the text but not really listening to it. The secret to taking good notes, according to Dr. Lyman Sell, a professor in the rhetoric department at the University of Minnesota, is not only hearing the content but also listening for the proper works to present the lecture.

Communication Is a Lot More Than Talking to Plants

She graduated from Michigan State University, however, the 22-year-old Edwards has used communication skills heavily.
