SPORTS The University Daily KANSAN February 16, 1984 Page 14 Jayhawks win first Big 8 road game KU leads only twice but snubs NU,67-66 By JEFF CRAVENS Sports Editor LINCOLN, Neb. — Frustration was the word for the Kansas Jayhawks when they played the Nebraska Cornushers last night. The Jayhawks had won in the season and had not won in the Bob Devaney Sports Center in eight tries. The frustration continued for another 39 minutes and 44 seconds before Carl Henry hit a 10-foot jump shot to give KU a 67-66 victory. "It happened so suddenly," KU coach Larry Brown said about the final 1:31. In that time, KU outscored theFormer Giants' since its record to 6-3 in the conference. "There were just so many big plays. It was incredible." Brown said. "I went to the bench and everyone contributed." Nebraska had the game under control when Eric Williams hit a short jump shot with 1:45 left to give NU a chance. Thompson answered with a jump shot. Henry, who finished with 20 points, then stole a pass and went the length of the floor for a dunk to close the gap to one point. "I WAS GOING FOR THE 1-and-1 foul, but they say that the hand is part of the ball," Henry said about the steel. "In these hands, he手, but they didn't call anything." KU's trapping man-to-man defense then forced Stan Cloud to turn the ball over, and KU's Kelly Knight came up with the steal. Henry hit his shot to give the Jayhawks only their second lead in the game. Nebraska had a chance to win the game, but David Ponce's 25-foot desperation shot with three seconds remaining didn't even hit the rim. Brian Martin grabbed the rebound as time ran out. KU collapsed around Nebraska cen- ter David Hoppe on the final play to get the win. "I didn't feel anything until that shot hit the bottom of the board." Brown said. "We didn't have our great free throw throw back, and we seconds left we wouldn't need them." THE LOSS WAS BITTER for the catch back into the big Fight. He took it. "KU is definitely beatable," said Hoppen. "We let them get back into the game instead of kicking them when they were down." The Cornhuskers had KU down by 11 in the first half as Williams and Cloudy hit from the outside. But Ron Kellogg, an Omaha, Neb, native, came off the bench to help lift the Jayhawks back into the game. "When I decided to come to KU, I knew it would be a challenge to beat them here," Kellogg said. "I felt pretty loose and just went out and played." Kellogg and Calvin Thompson each scored eight points in the first half as KU battled back to within five, 33-28, at halftime. "I felt good at halftime," Brown said. "We were down 21-10, but we kept trying and got ourselves back in the game." HOPPEN GOT THREE fools in the first half, but the Cornhuskers went to the 6-10 center in the second half as he scored 14 of the team's first 18 points. Hoppen's 28 points for the game was the best of his career. The Jayhawks also went inside, with Knight, Dreiling and Henry each scoring to keep KU within reach. They were closer than three until the final minute. Nebraska led 55-51 with 6:37 to play and Knight was at the free throw line. But Knight couldn't convert and Nebraska made a point to play to Nebraska up by seven. "There were so many quick plays," Brown said. "Every time I thought to myself Oh no, we're in trouble" we knew. All of the big plays to get back into the game."

"This is what we needed," Thompson said. "We knew we were going to win." Henry, who hit 8 of 11 from the field, thought he might have shot his game-winning jumper too early. "We wanted to wait a little longer, but I thought at the time that it was too good a shot to pass up." Henry said. "He's been in jail inside to Kelly Knight to get the foul." KU remains two games behind Gonzalo Martinez into Saturday games against Mission "Yeah, this was probably our biggest win. Henry said, "At this time, we needed you." NEBRASKA COACH Moe Iba blamed himself for his team's defeat. "It isn't as much the kids' fault as it was," Isa said to the cornhuskers' play agent. Brown played everyone on his roster for the first time in the conference "I looked at 10 kids and saw 10 players," Brown said. "Tim Bankes gave us a lift, Mike Marshall gave us a lift, Tad (Boyle) played good in the first half, and we did the defensive job on Hoppen when we were in severe foul problems."

The Soviet Union, showing relentless movement and determination around the net, blasted Sweden 10-1 to conclude Group A play with a 5-0 victory. The French team went last week to book defense with just the right blend of offense to down Canada. 4-0.

Thomas Per Rundquist scored the Sweden goal. NIKOLAI DROSETSKY scored two goals in the first eight minutes and added an assist with 31 seconds left in the game, leading the Soviet Union. Sweden fell to 3-1-1. Czechoslovakia's victory boosted its After scoring single goals in each of the first two periods, the Czechoslovakians led the victory with two goals in the third period.

Defenseman Radoslav Skvoboda made it 3- with 6:31 left in the final period, taking a pass from Igor Liba at the blueline and ripping a high past Canadian goalie Gossein Mossel's left shoulder.
