Sports University Daily Kansan / Friday, September 9, 1988 13 Young Jayhawk team faces Baylor veterans Football season starts tomorrow; Mason optimistic about KU debut By Jeff Euston Kansas sportwriter Kansan sportswriter Last season, Glen Mason's Kent State team spoiled the home apperator for the Kansas football team. This year, Mason hopes to win once again this time for the dayhawks The Mason era at Kansas officially begins tomorrow. Mason, who compiled a 12-10 record during two seasons at Kent State. is ontinimic about his debat. Mason's first test in his new job will be not be easy. The Jayhawks will the Baylors Bears, who won their opening game against UMLT 9/23 last "Saturday afternoons are when make coaching worthwhile," Mason said. "You try before the first game." He said his last once I think we'll be ready." I think we it be really Mason also was concerned with the inexperience of his squad. Glen Mason He has said that 30 freshmen are on the Jayhawks' two deep depth chart. As many as eight Kansas players were on the Division college game tomorrow. Mason has said that teaching freshmen was more difficult and more time-consuming. But he is quick to point out that he is a veteran at Kent State, either as a "We'll be playing with a lot of kids that don't have that much experience." Mason said, "a lot of our kids will be playing in their first college basketball and two freshman linebackers. I don't think outside linebacker coach Bello has coached anybody but freshmen at outside linebacker. They're all freshmen. Kids are only weeks out of high school. or maybe elsewhere. Kansas wide receiver Quintin Smith said the play of the Jayhawks' young players would be important. "I think the first year players that we have have to play well on Saturday, when they get new faces and if the young players play up to the potential, we'll be ready." Mason said he believed the Bears would be ready for the game. "I'd doot Baylor is overlooking us." "I doubt Baylor is overlooking us." 'S Saturday afternoons are what make coaching worthwhile. You try before the first game to cover every situation at least once. I think we'll be ready.' — Glen Mason Kansas football coach he said. "They're a good football team. They have an advantage because they've played one game already." Baylor, in contrast to Kansas, has a wealth of experience. The Bears feature 12 returning starters, including nine on defense. intensively, two of the Bears' youngest starters may be their biggest stars. Sophomore BoeGebel was the quarterback on the All-Southwest Conference team as a redshirt freshman last season. Goebel also was selected as the conference newcomer of the year. Sophomore滚回篮后 Reldin Raphel ran for 142 yards on 16 carries in his first college start against UNLV. was touted as one of the nation's best before the season. The Bears planned to have all four starters from last year's secondary return, until junior free safety Mike Welch injured his shoulder and underwent surgery last week. Defensively, the Baylor secondary Junior Ray Crockett, selected to the All-Southwest Conference team last season, moved from cornerback to free safety. Sophomore Malcom Frank will replace Crockett at that position. Junior Robert Blackmon, another all-conference selection last season, will start at strong safety. Another notable in the Baylor secondary is senior corner肩Nrisbloom. the son of former All-Pro Pittsburgh Steelers cornieMelkow The Baylor secondary limited UNLV's passing game to 39 yards last week, and the Bearss allowed the Titans to score downs and yards of 90 total shots. Smith has noticed the same thing in studying tapes of the Baylor-UNLV game. "The key to success for us is the play of the offensive line and our running backs." "They like to play a man-to-man, bump-and-rush style that you see in the pro wrestling business; they lift eight yards off the ball, and his first reaction is run. We'll take advantage of what we look to counterbalance their plans. I think we'll work." "Me and Wille are always looking to break a really big play," he said laughing. "All we ask is that we hatched the plan." Once we touched it, we can break it. "They play that Texas brand of football," said Kansas quarterback Kelly Donohue. "They like to blitz with a lot of them." He would have a lot things open. Smith said he and fellow wide receiver Willie Vaughn are hoping for an opportunity to beat the Baylor defense for a score. "We think we can win. We're going to have a nice crowd, 40,000 or so, and we're going all out to win."

After leasing the first match of the season to the Montana State Bobcats 3-4 Kansas volleyball coach Frankie Albiz was subscribing to the philosophy that experience is the best teacher. Kansan sportswriter "I think there's hope," Albiz said. "We started out well, but couldn't keep it up. Montana State had played with them, which helped them a lot tonight." In the first game, the Jayhawks jumped to an 8-4 lead thanks to two kills by sonry hitter Hilton Woods and a goal by freshman bloorer Kim DellHoff But the Bobcats came back and won the game 16-14 on an ace with Senior Sherr Krepke, who led Montana State with 12 kills. The second game was close until Montana State scored seven unanswered points to defeat the Jayhawks 15-7. "We lost our continuity and became victims of the ball." Abilis said, "Our passing broke dowel and wasn't good during that stretch." With Montana State in control of the third game 7-3, the Jayhawks came back to take the lead 8-7, thanks to junior hitter Jodi Oelschla Despite the problems in the second game, the Jayhaws refused to give up against the Bobcats. Albitz gave several reasons for Kansas' collapse. ger's three aces and freshman hitter Adrian Powell's kill and dink. The Jayhawks tied Montana State at 14, but were unable to return two Montana State shots and lost the game 14-16. Albitz said she was disappointed with the Jayhawks' passing game. "I thought we could've passed better," Albitz said. "I tried to get us to run the three-man pass game with my partner." Then we learned we can learn it to run it well." Sophomore blocker Lisa Patterson said Kansas "poor serving was another factor contributing to the loss. "I thought all of the freshmen who played did well," Albit said. "Kim, Julie (Woodruf) and Adrian all did okay." A bright spot for the Jayhawks is the play of DeHoff, who tied Oelschlag in lead in aces and 20 points. Woods for second in kills with nine. "The combination of our missees in comparison with their tough seas hurt us," Patterson said. "They hurt us, it touches to our run off警." ratterson suffered an injury during the third game, but said she would be able to play today against the Lady Jayhawk Tournament. Montana State coach Donna Palieve said the 2.5 Bobcats, who are in the middle of a 10-match road trip, looked tired and were fortunate to Kansas hitter Hiera Woods, Richardson, Texas senior, goes for a spike against Montana State's Sherk Kreple. win. "We've been on the road since August 31," Palivee said. "We Wednesday night we played a real physical match against Kansas State, which we lost 3-1. So I'm happy with the win." Palvee said the Jayhawks were younger than the six previous teams Montana State had played and she continued to improve as the season progressed. "Kansas did a good job considering it was their first game." Palvie said. "We are comparable teams in that we're both young and trying to find the right combination of players that will be effective."
