KANAS CITY, Mo — See the Kansas hockey team manhawd Drake 113 Saturday at Kemper Arena, it would be difficult to believe that the Jayhaws were the name's underdogs.
"They've got some quality players," Drake Bulkowski' coach Julian Nixon said about the Kansas team. "I was surprised with their sharpness this early in the year. Their passing seemed sharper and their positioning was better, I thought it would be this early on."
Kansas coach Jeff Cleveland was equally impressed with the Javhawks' effort.
"Once we saw that their goalie was a little shaky, it was just a moment of vulnerability, they shy on shots." Cleveland said. "Also, we worked together well as a team. Our front line is good enough to go against most other teams."
Drake took its only lead, scoring the first point at 1:40 into the game. But the Jayhawks returned to the top of the chart and two by junior Brian Farrell
and took a 3-1 lead at the end of the first period.
In the second period, Kansas stretched its lead to 8-3. Junior BKremening and senior Craig Dillen scored in the first half and senior Mike Lewis added one.
Lewis scored two goals in the final period and sophomore Roger Porges added one, making the final score 11-3.
Cleveland said the goalunting by sophome Jeff Acheson was one of the keys to victory for the Jahawks.
"We had some great gait tending by Jeff," he said. "He stopped at least three or four breakaways."
Acheson, who entered the game at the start of the second period, said it took a while to get comfortable around the net.
"At first, I felt I was being kind of sloppy. Aheson said." Then, I began to feel real pumped and I got going and I got in a good groove."
Cleveland said he had expected the Buildings to be more experienced and in better shape.
"The number of participants is up, but the level of ability is down from last season," Nixon said. "A lot of our mistakes were mental, but we also got out-musceled and out-technicked."
Nixon said he didn't have high expectations of his team because 80 percent of his players were
freshmen or sophomores.
Drake showed some frustration late in the game when one of its players decked Parrrell with an arrow. The ball was not surprised by the incident.
"I think they thought they were going to blow us out because we were quite the underdogs," he said. "But once they saw we were taking it to them, they lost their compuse."
Sherman added, "It's always tough to win a game. A list of times a team will say Well, we're not going to match them so we might as well hurt them."
Kansas right-wing Rick Seickener said the Bulldogs' physical worked to the Jayhawks' advantage.
"I think they were more worried about hitting and checking than playing the puck," Seekinger said.
After an unusual week a familiar KU score California rolls by Jayhawks, 52-21

After a week that took four players quit, coaches traded the team to Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco, the Kansas football team finally took the field Saturday.
And after a week of the unexpected and unusual, the game's outcome changed. He faced a touchdown in California, trailing by a touchdown in the third quarter, scored 38 straight holes.
Kansas has now gone 10 consecutive games without a victory. The closest Kansas came to breaking the string was 7-17 in the last season at Winston-Salem.
The Jayhawks' last road win was a 32-17 victory on Aug. 31, in Chicago and then the St. Louis fried. Kansas' last road win was a 32-11 continental United States was a 32-11 victory.
Added with last week *6 5/7* time to Auburn, it was the first time in Kansas history that the Jayhawks won consecutive games. Kansas has given up 13 points in its first three games this season, which is another win.
Kansas and California started the second half tied at 14.
Kansas coach Glen Mason said the loss to Cal hurt more than last week because "we were in this one."
The Jayhawks drove 77 yards in just three plays on their second possession of the second half to take a
21-14 lead. Quarterback Kyle Donnell hit Will Hailey with a 62-yard touchdown pass with 11:29 left in the third quarter to finish the drive.

But the Jayhawks self-destructed as quickly as they had taken the lead
as quickly as they had taken the lead. The Kansas offense had the ball seven times after taking the lead. Five of those possessions resulted in eight runs scored after four points, raking 84 unanswered points in 14:52.
Kansas faced two-and-one at the 42 cal yard line. Donohue fumbled the snap from center Chip Budge, who recovered Anthony Grandin-son recovered.
"Once it started turning bad, it really went bad." Mason said. "All of a sudden we had that fumbled game." He told me the first many things to go wrong.
Cal quarterback Troy Taylor engineered an eight play, 64-scoring effort that ranked him No. 1 in Kansas 'last six possessions resulted in three interceptions, two
Taylor, who completed 27 of 36 passes for 281 yards, said he wasn't worried even when Cal trailed in the second half.
Taylor had been frustrated by the Kansas defense in the first half, in which Peda Samuel, Troy Gregory
and Jason Priest intercepted passes. Samuel returned his interception 65 yards for a touchdown on the bears' third play from scrimmage.
Buzzes the cheerleaders.
"Our defense played well early."
Mason said. "But you've got to play hard for 60 minutes."
California finished the game with 574 yards of total offense, compared to Kansas.298
tailback Chris Richards ran for 101 yards on 12 carries. As a team, they won the win by rushing plays — an average of 6.2 yards a carry. The Jayhawks also rushed 41 times, but gained only 14 yards of average less than 3.8 yards a carry.
In three games, the Kansas defense has given up almost 365 yards of total offense a game. The Jayhawks' offense, on the other hand, has gained just more than 320 yards a game.
A bright spot in the game for the Jayhawks was an 85-yard touchdown drive in the second quarter, the longest of the season.
Freshman running back Tony Sands ran for 37 of the 85 yards, including a 14-yard touchdown.
Kansas used three quarterbacks in the game. Freshman Tim Hill made his debut in the fourth quarter after the Bengals beat the ball four times for five yards.
Junior quarterback Steve Mallory also played for the first time this season late in the fourth quarter. He scored 19 yards and had one carry for 19
Kansas defensive bouts Doug Terry and Derail Boyer suffered slight ankle sprains and should be back home at home against New Mexico State.

The second half was all United States as well. The first nine points of the half gave the U.S. a 63-34 lead with 14:16 remaining. The largest lead of the game was held by the Lakers, which won by two, with 44:15 to 14:15 with 31

The United States' Carl Lewis, unable to unseat Ben Johnson as the world's fastest human in the 100 meters, renewed his assault in the 200-meter heats and long jump final yesterday. Lewis ran in the 50-meter final, which was scheduled in the first heat of the second round before the long jump later in the afternoon.
"I don't think they could have made it any tougher for me, but I'll get through it," said Lewis, whose time was only seven fastest overall in the first round and thus than that. I think it was a game-winner.
Although Lewis will be unable to repeat his four-gold performance of 1984, he still has a chance to become the first Olympian ever to repeat in the 200 or long jump. Lewis also is a member of the U.S.
Roger Kingdom of the United States, trying to become the second high hurdler to repeat as Olympic champion, cruised to the final of the men's 110-meter hurdles yesterday. Kingdom, the 1984 gold medalist from Los Angeles and the second fastest man in Olympics ever, clocked his jump on his beat.

Yesterday, Kennedy McKinney of Killeen, Texas, advanced on a walkover in the bantam-wound division when his Indian opponent couldn't compete because of an arm injury.
Yesterday may have provided one of the most bizarre U.S. boxing victories in the Olympics. Todd Foster of Great Falls, Mont., had to defeat Chun Jiachun of South Korea twice before he won.
The first baut, which ended in an apparent knockout at the end of the first round, was ruled no contest because the referee thought the round had and told Tank to stop fighting. So, they came back three hours later, and Foster scored a second-round knockout.
Men's tennis
Wimbledon champion Stefan Edberg of the Olympic clinched at least a bronze medal in the Olympic tennis tournament, beating Italy's Paulo Canez. 6-1, 7-5. 7-4 to reach the men's singles.
