SPORTS The University Daily KANSAN August 31, 1983 Page 12 Boagni back from World Cup play; helped U.S. basketball team to title By JEFF CRAVENS Associate Sports Editor It was clear that Kerry Boagni's body was out of synch. After hitting his first few shots in a pickup basketball game at Allen Field House yesterday, Boagni quickly showing signs of jet lag, affecting his shooting accuracy. After playing his second straight game, Boogin gingerly walked around the court as he shook hands with the rest of his KU teammates. It was a scene of friends happy to see each other after a vacation. Even though his sweat-soaked body showed signs of wear and tear, Boogain was smiling. The KU sophomore forward, who was the Jayhops second-leading scorer last season, had not slept in more than a day. But he was not out of shape. In fact, he had been playing basketball for more than a month. Boogni had just arrived from Spain where he had been playing for the United States in the U.S. Cup tournament, helped the U.S. team win a gold medal. "IT WAS GOOD competition," Boogain said. "The best in the world for that age group." The United States had a 19-year-old age limit while the European teams had a 20-year-old limit. The U.S. team won the gold medal by beating the Soviet team in the finals. In the final, the Soviets had beaten the United States. the United States. Boagni scored 14 points and grabbed seven rebounds in a loss to Germany for his best game of the tournament. "It was a fast-paced game, the kind that I think coach Brown wants to run." Boajani, referring to new KU head coach Larry Brown. "It was also very physical, and since I'm kind of thin it really helped me." THE LAST TIME the United States participated in the World Cup championships, the team won the gold and featured James Worthy, Sam Perkins, both eventual All-Americans from North Carolina, and many other college stars. This year's World Cup quad may be similar. Boajn played with other young college players such as Kenny Walker of Kentucky, DeWayne "Pearl" Washington of Syracuse, Walter Berry of St. John's and Jeff Hall of Louisville. "I made millions of friends," Boagni said. Boagni was chosen for the team after an outstanding performance at the National Sports Festival this summer in Colorado Springs, Colo. Boagn averaged 21 points a game for the team, and 20 added to the all-tournament team, which then became the World Cup squad. It was the first time Boagni had ventured outside of the United States, and he said it was a valuable experience. "The biggest thing I learned was how to communicate without speaking." "I NEVER LOOKED at the whole picture before," he said. "I always thought of just the United States, 'not a country.' The players there are just as good. Representing the United States also had an effect on Bogami, a Gardena, a "You go out there to win for the United States," Boagni said. "I wasn't playing for KU or for me, but for the United States." Boogi said he would like nothing more than to represent the United States in 1945. "That's a dream," he said. "Hopefully my performance will give me a tryout. All I can ask for is a toyout, and then it's up to me to do the rest." 15-hit attack paces Orioles over KC, 12-4 By United Press International KANSAS CITY, Mo. — John Lowenstein went four of four and Cal Ripken and Ken Singleton honored last night to lead a 15-hit attack, giving the fourth consecutive victory with a 12-4 trumph over the Kansas City Royals.

Eight members of the Jayhawk crew will travel to Tulsa, Okla., Friday to compete against six other teams for the TuLay Manager's Cup. Team one of six from nation Crew invited to Tulsa for race By JOHN UNREIN Sports Writer Eight KU crew members will leave Friday on an all-expense paid trip to Tulsa, Okla., courtesy of Tulsa's newly formed rowing program, for KU's first race of the season this Labor Day weekend. Cliff Elliott, KU crew coach, said his varsity men's eight-man roaring team was among six university teams across the country invited to compete for the national title, which Elliott said should be the University of Kansas biggest race this year. "They're celebrating a new river development, which was about a $12.20 million project," Elliott said. "They'll be having a weekend full of rock concerts, and they'll be air balloon rides, a soccer tournament, and the Mavar's Cup race on Sunday." "It's the big race we're all excited about," Elliott said. "It's going to be interesting how ready everyone is for the big game, we have only been practicing since Aug. 15." KANSAS STATE, Texas, Wisconsin, San Diego State and Yale will also be at Tulsa, Elliott state, with Yale picked as the favorite. The race will be taped by Entertainment Sports Program Network Sunday afternoon and portions will be broadcast in its Sports Center program that may men's squad has been practicing from 6 to 8 a.m. Monday through Friday, said Elliott, who also coaches the KU novice men's team and varsity women's team. These teams, along with the novice men's team, have been from 3:30 to 8 p.m. five days a week. Elliott's wife, Libby, coaches the novice women "Hopefully, one day the KU program will be able to support a full-time coach." Elliott said, "because we really need one." ELIOTT, WHO IS now in his fourth year as KU coach, said that he earned a salary coaching the crew, but that he also had to make money by doing odd jobs throughout the year. He said the team had with the crew was a verbal one. Because the crew at KU is a club sport, crew members must raise their own money to finance the club's activities. You can travel expenses for out-of-town races. Since mid-August the KU varsity To raise money to support this year's $17,000 operating budget, Elliott said, each crew member will do 30 hours of fund-raising work this year. All money earned through volunteer work goes directly to the club. IN THE PAST, members have raised money by parking cars during KU football and basketball games, operating concession stands at the games and working at the Renaissance Festival in Banner Springs. formed in 1982 to help organize fund-raising activities, Elliott said. "We're trying to raise money for a boat house this year, and we need a place to set up indoor rowing machines," Elliott said. "It's real inconvenience for us to take 100 people over to motion to lift weights during the winter." A steering committee comprised of friends and family of the KU crew was "Before we can say we are one of the leaders in the country, I'd say we need at least a dozen." The KU crew, which will consist of about 125 members this fall, shares three boats for practices at Burcham Park and in Indiana streets on the Kaw River. The latest addition of a boat came last March, when the crew purchased a new Vespoli shell. Elliott said the船 cost $7,650, plus $1,500 for a set of oars. MOST OF THE MONEY for the shell came from the crew's savings, although Elliott said the Student Senate club the $2,500 toward its purchase. The Vespol, which seats eight rowers, will be used by the men's and women's lightweight teams. Mrs. Elliott said. In addition to having variety and novice teams, the crew is into tightweights and heavy weights. Only the men's varsity heavyweight team will be racing this weekend, but all the squads will compete at the Burcham Regatta Sept. 24 at Burcham Park. 2 PAIRS OF GLASSES FOR THE PRICE OF ONE Look into fashion.
