KU women beat 'Cats 88-68
By JIM SMALL Snorts Writer
MANHATTAN, Kan.—It was billed as another rough- and-tumble Kansas-Kansas State; match-up.
KU entered the game ranked fifth in the nation and riding a six-game winning streak. K-State had never lost to the Jayhawks at Ahearn Field House and held a 25-9 advantage over Kansas in the series.
In the end, things weren't as close as expected.
In the end, images we will discuss as spectators.
Paced by Lymette Woodard's 24 points, the KU women's basketball team beat K-State 88-68 last night in Manhattan.
The victory pushed KU's record to 17-3 and 4-0 in Region Six southern division play.
K-State fell to 16-6,3-1 in division action.
The big difference in the game, as in KU's 86-60 victory over the Big Eight championships last week, was rebounding.
KU outmussed the Wildcats 44-33 under the boards. He Cluxton continued as the team's leading rebounder, grabbing two.
"It just reinforces that Tracy is one of the finest rebounders in the nation," KU Coach Marian Washington said. "She's just a freshman, but already she has made a big impact on our program. I'm very pleased."
Taryn Bachis provided the fire-power for the Wildcats early in the game. The 5-foot-9 guard scored K-State's two touchdowns.
KU countered Bachis' torrid shooting with aggressive
inside work. Woodard, Megan Scott and Claxton all hit from underneath as Kansas built an 8-point lead midway through the first half.
Kannan increased its lead to 18 with than a minute left in the half, before three K-50s from 46-32 to 48-26 and advantage to 45-30.
The 3,440 K-State fans got excited in the second half when the Wildcats pulled within 12. Two Woodard buckets topped that and KU recorded its third straight victory over K-State.
Although Kansas scored 38 points from underneath the basket, Washington said she was pleased with the Jayhawks outside game.
"We were doing things we wanted to do," she said. "Our strength is inside, but we have a good outside game also. I knew from our first game that they liked to clog up the Chris Stewart and Lynette both had good outside games."
Stewart scored 10 points, most coming on long jump shots. Shebra Grail scored 18 and Claxton had 16 for kickoff.
K-State was led by Bachis, who finished with 18 points. Debbie Price had 16 and center Dee Weinreis, who replaced Wildcat star Tammie Romstad, who underwent knee surgery last week, contributed 14.

Often the most exciting clashes during the Kansas-Kansas State game are those off the court. Friends who split after high school graduates meet again as arch-rivals, amused tearing and purple and betting and red.
Friendships die when rivals meet
Valentine and Blackman became friends while rooming together on the 1880 Olympic basketball team. They also won the title for president on the White House lawn.
A recent National Basketball Association scouting report by Marty Blake lists Blackman as the No. 1 guard fourth. Country Valentine is rated fourth.
Two old friends will meet tonight when KU meets K-State at 7:40 p.m. in Ahearn Fieldhouse. There will be no tearing or betting, however. Both will compete and Darmell Valentine and Rolando Blackman will be there to play basketball.
Statistically, Blackman has 1,633 career points; Valentine 1,152. Valentine far surpasses Blackman in assists with 20 in the four Big Eight games. Blackman is fifth in the conference in scoring, averaging 17.7

"K-State is a fine team," he said. "It will be a very difficult game to win. They've had some injuries."
points a game. Valentine has a 15.2 average.
Says Blackman of his friend/foe to the east: "It's nice to know that I have a friend like Darnell just up the river. But it won't change anything and it won't help me against him. He just responds to pressure too well."

Of course, winning at home is important, too, and K-State has had trouble doing that. They surprised many people by losing at home to Oklahoma State 90-83. The Wildcats also lost to Oklahoma in Norman and Nebraska in Lincoln, and defeated Colorado in overtime in Boulder.

Valentine, who has cozy commanded the Jayhawks in their come-from-behind victories of late, leads the Big Eight conference in both steals and assists. The Wichita native is averaging 5.7 assists and 2.8 steals each contest.

Owens said that K-State probably was going through a slump.
After meeting K-State tonight, the 'Hawks will face Nebraska in Lincoln Saturday and Oklahoma State in Stillwater next Wednesday. And the team that can win on the road will win the conference.
Since Valentine and Blackman have been playing against each other, K-State has won five of nine. But when the chickens are through flying in the weather they return to the statistics and records and what foot the players set on the court first won't have mattered. This is Big Eight basketball, and both teams need the victory.
