WARD 'Hawks suffer 54-43 setback at Cats' hot hands By KEVIN BERTELS Sports Editor "I think I have to say it's just a one-game setback. If we lost the next three games, I would call that a setback." MANHATTAN-Nobody feels worse than Tony Guy about the play that may have been the most important of Kansas' game last night against Kansas State. With 2:44 left, KU was trailing by six points. Guy, KU's top scorer this season, had the ball with only one defender between him and the basket. Senior guard Darnell Valentine was alone on the left side of the court. Guy drove, made a lay-up but was called for a charge, his fifth foul. Little went right the rest of the game, and KLU lost to the Wildcats 54-43. "I REALLY FEEL badly about that play." Guy said. "There is no doubt in my mind that I should have gotten the ball to Darrell. I know that if he had had the ball, he would have gotten it to me. I just hope if the situation comes up again. I'll get the ball to him." The charge call on the play could easily have been called by Guy, said he was refused to face official calls. "I felt as if he was still shuffling his feet," Guy said. "By the time I was up in the air, I thought he was under me. Either way it's my fault and I really feel bad." K-State held the lead throughout the game, but until the last minute, the dayhawks always dominated. The Warriors with 10 minutes left in the second half nearly worked to KU's advantage. The Jayhawks, down 39-29, were forced to switch to man-to-man defense. They made steals "I STARTED thinking man-to-man with 13 minutes left," KU Head Coach Ted Owens said. "With 10 minutes left we went to it. We had enough time." But KU had trouble getting much closer. Sixty-nine percent shooting by the Wildcats, mostly due to easy shots from the stall, kept the Javahws to their lowest point total since 1962. "We just tried to keep the ball moving and wait for them to make mistakes and then take advantage of them," Rolando Blackman, K-State senior guard, said. "They tried to trap us and consequently we were able to find a 'new openings.'" In the second half, those openings were underneath. In the first half, the opening was outside. Tim Jankovich, 6-foot-0 junior guard, could see it. He hit five of six long jump shots in the first half, most over the middle of KU's 3-2 zone. SIX-FOOT-TEN forward Art Housley played the middle position for KU most of the game. He played a bit deeper than usual, he said. In one respect the change worked. Blackman, who often scores from the lane and free throw, has improved his lowest output in his career at K-State. Jankovich and forward Ed Nealy led K-State with 14 points each. KU's defense was not designed specifically to stop McKinnon, Owens said, but that was on account. "WHEN YOU PLAY a defense like ours, you have to give away something in order to take something away from the opponent," he said. "We held Blackman down, but the others, like Jankovik, hurt us a bit more than we wanted and Adams also shot well and had fineamer." Despite his low point total, Wildcat Coach Jack Hartman was pleased with Rickman's game. "Tonight was a perfect example of what he can mean to his team when he doesn't score". Hartman said. "I thought he played an excellent game. He did a tremendous amount of things," Hartman said. "He was timely, rebounded and assists (seven each)." KU ended the game shooting 43 percent, well below the team average of 50.2 percent. Part of the problem was an impatient offense, according to Owens. "K-State played fine basketball, "Owens said. We were the most patient than we were. We were harrowing our players. The loss, KU's first in 11 games, should only affect the experienced Jayhawks temporarily, O'Connor said. "All we have to do is look at this as a temporary backset." Owens said. "If MU defeats OSU (and they did, 92-77), we're right in the ballpark. The others are just a little bit closer. It will be a tough race and we'll have to prepare ourselves for every game." "WE HAVE TO LOOK at it as a learning experience," David Magley, junior forward, said. Several players agreed with Owens. "It's like getting a bad grade on a test. When you do poorly on an exam, you have to study harder for the next one or you flunk. In our situation, we have to bounce back or we lose for the rest of the season. Everybody is taking it as a learning experience. I'm sure." Guy said, "I think I have to say it's just a one-game setback. If we lost the next three games, I would call that a setback. I do agree that it is only temporary. I look at it as a learning experience. I think I'm glad that we had a loss early in the Big Eight season. We know what we have to do." | | KANNAK (35) | | | | | | | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | MIN | 34 | 30 | 2-4 | REB A | 0 | PF TT | 8 | | Magley | 34 | 3-6 | 2-2 | REB A | 0 | PF TT | 8 | | Minchel | 3-6 | 3-9 | 1-4 | REB A | 0 | PF TT | 8 | | Mitchell | 25 | 1-3 | 0-4 | 2 | 0 | 2 | 2 | | Valentine | 25 | 1-3 | 0-4 | 2 | 0 | 2 | 2 | | Valentine | 30 | 1-3 | 0-4 | 2 | 0 | 2 | 2 | | Neal | 30 | 9-11 | 1-4 | 2 | 3 | 5 | 10 | | Neal | 13 | 4-10 | 0-4 | 0 | 2 | 1 | 8 | | Crawford | 13 | 4-10 | 0-4 | 0 | 2 | 1 | 8 | | Crawford | 30 | 20-40 | 0-4 | 0 | 1 | 4 | 45 |
