840 Page 10 University Daily Kansan, March 2. 1983 Women win last home game Kansas scores 100 against NU By BILL HORNER Sports Writer Sports Writer The Huskers couldn't run, Vickie Adkins couldn't miss, and Kansas couldn't let another game get away in the second half. The Jayhawks, sparked by Adkins' career-high 32 points, roared back to beat deaseout to beat Nebraska 100-84 but people in Allen Field House last night. The game, KU's last in Allen this season, gave the Jayhawks a half-game lead over Missouri in the Big Eight conference. Mizzou plays at Oklahoma State tonight, and with a victory can move back into a tie with KU with one game remaining for each team. Kansas, which raised its record to 9-4 in the conference and 12-13 overall, got the victory by shutting off Nebraska's fast-break game in the second half. The Huskers, now 4-9 in the conference and 13-13 overall, opened as expected — running hard. They took a 15-8 lead at 15:32, scoring 12 of those points with close-range shots on fast breaks. After a time out, the Jayhawks began to claw back. Adkins scored 11 of her 16 first-half points over a four-minute period to give KU a 29-29 tie. At one point Kansas took a four-point lead, but the Knicks skates late in the half to earn a 51-31 tie. "They were taking the ball to us," said KU coach Marvin Washington. "They were attacking us, and getting some good shots." in the second half, Washington's strategy was to contain the Husker offense, limiting the running game to the KU team. KU had given up in the first half. "We knew they were a fast-breaking team," said junior Angie Snider, who finished with 19 points. "When we went there (an 85-78 KU victory in Lincoln) and missed here. Here, they were fast-breaking every time they got their hands on the ball." The Jayhawks outscored the Huskers 8-2 in the opening moments of the second half and applied the pressure that Washington wanted. That factor, combined with double-figure scoring and rebounding from Vickie Adkins and Philicia Allen, lifted them to its seventh victory in eight games. Allen finished with 22 points, 18 rebounds and six blocked shots. Angela Taylor, playing her final game in Allen as a senior, had 12 points. Chris Hurley, also playing in her last game in Allen, finished with six. | | M | P/G | FT | F2 | R | A | F1 | TP | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | B.

By JEFF CRAVENS Sports Writer 'Hawks face Nebraska tonight After struggling through the beginning of the Big Eight conference schedule, Kansas finally showed signs of coming to life by beating Oklahoma and Iowa State. The Jayhawks then came home to face Kansas State, a host last seven straight games, and the Jayhawks promptly lost, 70-63. Tonight the 'Hawks will try to regroup as they face Nebraska in Allen Field House. Tipoff is 7:35. "My feeling is that the K-State performance was a temporary thing," said Coach Ted Owens. "We just had a time and a time when we needed to be sharper." IN THE FIRST meeting with the Cornhuskins this season, KU lost 88-61 in Lincoln. Led by freshman center Tayler Johnson, KU is 8-1 overall and 7-5 in the conferences. "This is a very big game for both of us. Owens said, "Nebraska has great quickness and speed and the play is well developed." A good blend of experience and youth." The 6-11 Hoppen is averaging 13.8 points a game. However, it was not Hoppen but his replacement, Terry Smith, who hurt the Jayhawks earlier this season (6-6 senior, came off the bench to 18 points and pull down five rebounds. Joining Hoppen in the starting lineup will be 6-6 Claude Renro, who averages 8.3 points a game and leads the Nebraska in rebounding with 5.3 a game. Junior Stan Cloudy will start at the other forward spot. Cloudy is second on the team in scoring at 10.3 points a game. DAVID PONCE, who averages 7.3 points a game, will start at guard, and either Greg Downing or Eric Williams will round out the starting five. "As usual, this is another well-coached Nebraska team that plays well together." Owens said. "They are ready for position in the league race." The Jayhawks, on the other hand, are trying to get out of the last-place position they have been in for much of the conference season. The 'Hawks are led by junior guard Carl Henry, the only Jayhawk to start all 25 games. Henry leads the team in scoring, averaging 17 points a game, and is second in rebounding, grabbing 6.3 boards a game. "WHEREVER WE put Carl or whatever we ask, he does and does well." Owens said. "He has had just a great year and I think he is the best all-around player in the league." Owens said that they are taking a wait-and-seat attitude on starting Jeff Guiot, who is suffering from a sore right toe injured in the Iowa State game. If Guiot is unable to play, Tad Boyle will start at the other guard spot. Kerry Bongain, the second leading scorer on the team, and Calvin Thompson will man the forward Williams and Kelly Knight will be at center. The game marks the final home appearance for four senior Jayhawks, including co-captains Jeff Dishman and Mark Summers. Dishman had one of his best games of the year against the Warriors in a pulled in 10 rebounds. Lance Hill and Mark Ewing are the other senior members of the team. The last time the Jayhawks finished with fewer than four conference wins was in 1928 when they finished with a .518 record under Coach Phog Allen. Housing Problems Got You Down?
