Second-half comeback leads KU past Nebraska
By JEFF CRAVENS Sports Editor
Larry Brown called it the best half of basketball the Kansas Jayhawks played all season. Carl Henry agreed. So did Brian Martin.
After training by four points at halftime, KU whipped Nebraska 77-61 and increased its Big Eight record to 3-1. And the Jayhawks did it with surprisingly, a man-to-man defense.
"I figured they would hold the ball," he said. We practice man defense every day, but I'd never done that before.
"We played man-to-man. I don't believe it." Brown said. The KU coach has been forced to play a zone defense for most of the season in personnel, but had to change in the second half.
Led by Henry, the Jayhawks battled in the second half to took a 45-44 lead with 13:50 left in the game. The lead changed hands three times in the next four minutes.
HENRY WAS MAGNIFICENT, scoring 23 points and grabbing 14 rebounds. He gave KU the lead for good with a jump shot with 9:49 to play. The Jayhawks scored the next seven points, the final three on a three-point play by Greg Dreiling.
Heinry scored a three-point play and Martin followed with another three-point play. The game ended in a 3-1 victory.
Trailing 58-50. Nebraska scored the next four, and Larry Brown called timeout with 6:26 left in the game.
Martin added a basket and a free throw and Henry three baskets. KU pulled away to 13.
"Brian had one spurt that I really needed and he really needed." Brown said. "I was really upset with the way he played at Iowa State. He didn't really want the ball."
Martin agreed.
At low state, I played terrible., he said,
"Couch said I was walking on eggs. I started out like that tonight, but when I went in at the end I decided to play."
MARTIN SCORED ALL six of his points in a three-minute period as Kansas outscored the Cornhuskers 19-7 in the final 6 periods, added a dunk from a lob pass to Mark Turgeon.
Henry said, "Once we got going on the
infirmary and we were able to come out
intimately and run and play."
Brown said, "Carl Henry was great. It's nice to tell Carl to do a job on someone else." Brown ended the conversation with another end.
The job Brown was talking about was Henry's second-half defensive job on Nebraska forward Stan Cloudy, who ripped the KU zone for 18 points in the first half. Cloudy managed four points in the second half.
Cloudy, who made of 10 shots in the first half,
said. "We thought the shots would come quick
and I just didn't take too many shots. Maybe I
should." When you shoot a lot, it gives you
uidence.
ULOUDY WAS A one-man show for NU in the first half, consistently finding the open area in the KU zone.
"It was disappointing for the kids because they were disecting everything we did." Brown said.
Turgeon, who had nine assists and seven points, said Nebraska coach Moe McGraw made the cut.
"We did a lot of double-teaming, and it worked at first, but as great a coach as he is, he moved Cloudy to the high post and there was no one there," Turgeon said.
the Jayhawks forced nine Cornhus turnovers in the first half, but NU shot 69.6 percent from the field. A shot by Eric Williams from half court at the buzzer gave Nebraska a 38-34 win.
"He was sucking (air)." Brown said. "I only had one opportunity to take him out the second half, but he came through in wonderful fashion."
TURGEON PLAYED 32 minutes in the game,
his must as a Jawhawk.
Dreiling finished the game with 15 points, his highest total in Big Eight play.
Dreiling said, "I was really concentration on getting the ball inside because we wanted to take (Dave) Hoppen out of the game. I haven't had a chance to play because of foul trouble, but I'm ready tonight."
Dreiling took the ball to the basket strong in the second half, something he has been working with.
HOPPEN FOULED OUT with 3.08 remaining after battling a case of strep throat all week. He was discharged on Sunday.
"That's one thing that coach has stressed all week," he said. "I thought every time I shot a fade-away jump shot, he was going to make me run a couple of miles."
"I'd hate to see him when he's healthy," Brown said.
Hoppen said, "I feel good compared to what I had been feeling. I'm about 85 or 90 percent."
Kansas will play its second straight home game Saturday when it takes on cross-state defenses that has beaten the Joyhawks five consecutive times. The game is scheduled to start at 4:10 p.m.
KU's Calvin Thompson challenged Nebraska guard David Ponce for the ball during last night's Big Eight action in Allen Field House. The Joyhawks increased their record to 11-5 overall and 3-1 in the conference by defeating the Cornhuskers 77-61 for a share of first place with Oklahoma.
'Hawks combine talents to defeat Nebraska, 98-89
By PHIL ELLENBECKER
Sports Writer
Angie Snider broke out of her slump with a vengeance last night. She scored 29 points to lead the Kansas women's basketball team to a 98-89 victory over Nebraska at Allen Field House.
She cast aside any doubts about her shooting in the first half of last night's game, hitting 11 of 15 shots and scoring 24 points. The Jayhawks led 48-39 at the half.
Snider came into the game averaging 24.1 points a game, best in the Big Eight Conference. But she had averaged 13 points a game in the second half, and she had made only nine of 72 field goal attempts.
"We felt before the game that we could go right inside on them," Kansas head coach Marian Washington said.
Many of Snider's points came from point-blank range as she repeatedly got open behind the Nebraska defense. Seven of her field goals in the first half were from five feet or less.
The Jayhawks, 2-1 in the conference and 6-9 overall, made only two field goals from outside 15 feet in the first half. But the large number of close-range shots helped the Jayhawks hit 61 percent of their shots for the half. They shot 55 percent for the game.
percent for the games
Guards Valerie Quarles and Toni Webb shredded the Nebraska defense. Quarles had 6 assists and Webb 4 in the first half.
However, the Jayhawks never could quite pull away from the Cornushkers in the second half. Nebraska came within two at one point. The Jayhawks never led by more than 11.
"Nebraska's that kind of ball club." Washington said. "They work hard and never give up, and they take advantage of their quickness."
Forwards Deb Powell and Stacy Inned led Nebraska in scoring, Powell scored 29 points and Inned scored 20. Center Angie Miller was the only other double figure scorer with 10 points.
For KU, Cindy Platt trained Snider and Vickie Adams in scoring with 15 points, her career high.
"The last two games she's done a super job." Washington said, referring to Platt. "She's been a pleasant surprise. She is a good role player who works well with the other four people on the team."
Point guard Mary Myers was back in a Jayhawk uniform last night after being suspended for five games. She played 11 minutes and was scoreless, but drew some reaction from the crowd with a behind-the-back pass to Toni Webb underneath the basket for a layup.
Ticket sales put basketball in black
By the Kansan Staff
400. said Terry Johnson, interim ticket manager.
Susan Wachter, athletic department business manager, yesterday attributed the recovery to increased ticket sales.
If a midseason athletic department forecast holds true, the KU basketball program will finish the year in the black after losing money last season.
Student season ticket sales are up nearly 1,400 from last year and public season tickets are up.
saturday's Kansas State game sold out Friday and only about 50 tickets remain for the Fob. 5 Wichita State players would have tickets could be gone as early as today.
Last year, Wachter said, KU basket-
finished with a 13-16 record and a
72.48% rating.
But first-year coach Larry Brown has the Jayhawks off to a 11-5 start and the athletic department report, released Tuesday, has projected a $88,100
When the budget was determined last spring, the athletic department projected a $10,000 profit. Better-thanexpected ticket sales, however, recently prompted the athletic district to an extra $48,000 in basketball income.
In 1982, Wachter said, KU basketball made $80,000. In 1981 it showed a $75,000 profit.
Monte Johnson, KU athletic director, said he was pleased with ticket sales and with the progress of the team.
Barring bad weather, construction on the $3 million Fred B. Anschutz multipurpose athletic building will begin in February. The building, which will be west of Allen Field House, should be completed by September, KU Athletic Director Monte Johnson said.
