Page 12 University Daily Kansan, April 15, 1982 --- Javhawks land four recruits By RON HAGGSTROM Sports Editor Kansas basketball coach Ted Owens got exactly what he's needed the last three years, a strong, freshman recruiting class. Four newcomers signed national letters-of-entrance with Kansas yesterday. KU's sigins are kerry Bogani, Renn Kellogg and Calvin Thompson. Only one player remains from the recruiting class of the past three years: freshman guard Tad Boyle. Two years ago KU's only freshman recruit was Jeff Konek, who packed his bags last fall and headed to Mississippi. KU signed a pair of highly touted freshman three years ago in Ricky Ross and Keith Douglass, but, like Konek, they left. Douglass played for Quincy, this year, and Ross was the leading scorer in the junior college ranks, playing for Marin College in San Francisco. All the Jayhawk recruits were All-State selections and two of them were All-Americans. "This is a good strong freshman class that was badly needed," Owens said of the four recruits. Here is a look at the recruits: - Kerry Boagni, 6-9, 20, forward, Boagni, from Serra High School in Gardenia, Calif., averaged 24 points and 15.6 rebounds a game to earn All-State and All-America honors. As a junior, he averaged 20.5 points and 12.5 rebounds and his sophomore year he averaged 11.4 points and 10 rebounds. Besides his strong play on the court, Boagni is a 3.0 student and made the honor society. He was also named MVP for Super Bowl III. He's captain All-Star game in Washington, D.C. In Street and Smith's College Basketball court, Serra High School's Coach Mike Chu said, "He's strong and shoots the 15 to 17-foot jumper very —Ted Owens 'All four of them are fine athletes, with good physical skills. They all have an excellent attitude and are strong students.' well. He has very good court sense, but his biggest asset is his team play. He led us in points, but could have scored much more." Owens said, "He's versatile enough to play almost any place. He's an outstanding outsider shooter." *Jeff Guilot*, 6-2, 17, guard, Guit, from Chanute High School, averaged 24 points and nine assists a game this past season. Besides being an All-State selection in basketball, he was also an All-State quarterback in football. *R. Kellog.* 6,5-190, kallog. Kellogg, from Northwest High School in Omaha, Neb., averaged 21.1 points and 10.2 rebounds a game. *Jay* like Bogani, Kellogg was an All-State pick as well as an All-American. As a junior he averaged 21.1 points and 9.2 rebounds. With Kellogg and Boagni earning the same honors, it is only fitting that Kellogg also has a 'B' average. Thompson, who picked KU over Missouri, may be the Jayhawks best-kent secret. - Calvin Thompson, 6-4, 205, forward, Thompson, from Wyandotte High School, averaged 21 points and 12 rebounds a game and earned AllState "All four of them are fine athletes, with good physical skills," Owens said. "They all have an excellent attitude and are strong students." The Jayhawks will also issue a scholarship to Oklahoma City transfer Carl Henry, who was redshirted this season. Henry, 6-6, averaged 19 points and 11.7 rebounds a contest in his freshman season at Oklahoma City. He also led the team's steals and hits 8.15 percent of his shots. The Jayhawks, who still have one scholarship to offer, will continue to look for a big man who can fill the middle, Owens said. JAHWAKY NOTES: KU assistant coach Jo Whole's jersey that he wore for the Boston Celtics was retired last Friday night in ceremonies at the Boston Garden. White, who also played with the Golden State Warriors and the Kansas City Kings in his MBA career, became the first Celtic to have his number retired despite not playing his entire career for Boston. BICHARD SUGG/Kansan Coach Ted Owens and a Big Eight official argue over a call during the K-State game in Allen Field House last season. Owens, along with assistants Bob Hill and Jo Jo White, had a very enjoyable day yesterday signing four high school seniors to national letters-of-intent to play with the "Hawks next year."

The Kansas baseball team only scored two runs yesterday in their double-breaker against Emporia State, but that was enough for a split as they beat the Hornets 2-0, after losing the opener, 1-0. sector to ensure the players "You're never pleased with a split." Coach Marty Pattin said. "We didn't score in the first game and they did." DUKE LOHR, 2-1, went the distance in the first game, allowing one run on three hits. The only run of the game came in the sixth when Terry Nowak had a one out single. He stole second and went to third on a wild pitch before Gree Strecker singled him home. "Duke's been throwing well but I haven't been able to use him." Pattin In the Iowa State series, KU starting pitchers completed three of the four games so Pattin didn't have to go to his relief staff much. Pattin had to his relievers in the second game after Matt Gibson started and pitched five shutout innings for the win to raise his record to 3-1. Chris Ackley got his first save with two shutout innings. THE 'HAWKS went ahead 1-0 in the third inning when Mark Gleib singled and went to third on Jeff Neuzil's single. After Bill Yelton hit into a fielder's choice and Dick Lewallen popped out to short, Joe Heeney singled Gile home. KU had a chance to extend their lead in the fourth but could not push a run across. With two out and Mike Bohn at third and Jim Heeney at first, Neuzil hit a ball to the pitcher who threw to second. Heeney was called for usportsman-like conduct when he hit into second. The umpires said on a play like that the batter is out, which ended the inning for the 'Hawks. AT FIRST the umpires said the inning was over, but changed their minds, and the KU runners went back out. The umpires then changed their minds again, saying Nezuil was out because of Heeney's slide, and the inning was over. Heeney was ejected from the game. "I was surprised they would throw my player out," Pattin said. "I'm going to fight for my player. I've never seen a guy thrown out like that." Pattin and assistants Skip James and Roger Riley argued the call to no avail. THE JAYHAWKS got their second run in the fifth on two hits. Yellow opened the inning with a perfectly laid bunt and beat it out. Lewallen sacrificed him to second and Joe Heeeny sent him to third with a single. Heeney then stole second for his seventh stolen base of the year. Phil Doherty hit a ball to short center and Yellow tagged up. While the throw was close, he took the catcher Cliff Simmons his back to score and was greeted by the KU bench. ACKLEY CAME in to pitch the sixth and had no trouble but had runners on first and third in the sevent when he breaked to ground out to end the game. Kansas' Mortimer third in heptathlon Sports Writer By DAVE McQUEEN Under warm, sunny skies, the 57th annual Kansas Relays got underway yesterday with the first day of competition and the second decathlon and the women's heptathlon. In the decination, which is named after Jim Bauch, Lawrence native and 1932 Olympic gold medal winner, the leader after the first five events was Gary Kinder of Mississippi. A native of St. Louis, Kinder had 3.815 points, 85 points more than second-place John Harrel of Colorado State. John Sayre, the defending Relays decathlon champion from Southern Illinois, was third with 3,698 points. The long KU entrant, Jim Boushka, Wichita junior, was seventh with 3.031. In the heptathlon, which has been included in the Relays for the second time, the leader after four events was kathy Gillespie of Iowa with 3,038 points. A distant second was teammate Janet Adams with 2,653. Betsy Borth Mortimer was 2,024. Betsy Rush was entered in the hepta-ten, three of which are from Iowa. MORTIMER'S BEST snowing of the day was in the 200-meter dash, which she won in 25%. She then rode for second in the high jump with Gillespie at 5-4.⁴ The only heptathlete on the team, Mortimer said that she sometimes felt like a loner going from group to group, practicing her events. "I't hard at practice," Mortimer said. "I'm the one who has to run around to the different events. It's sort of a load, but I do get a chance to work with the best people in the different areas." weakness, however, was the shot-pot. In the shot-pot, where points are scored by both distance and place, she said it was much harder to score points. IN THE DECATHLON, Kinder looked impressive, winning three of the five events. He won the long jump, scoring 848 points on a 23-5¼ leap. he heaved the shot to win that event with a 43-4 mark, good for 678 more points. He also won the last event of the day, the high jump, with a 6-46 leap. Mortimer said that her strengths lay in the high jump and the 800-meter. Her Boushka, better known for his abilities as a wide receiver on the Jayhawk football team, competed in his first decimation. Boushka's best event of the day was the shot-put, in which he placed second with a 49-2-4 throw. Royals win, 4-3 Competition in the decathlon and the heptathlon will continue this morning, with the women's long jump slated to begin at 10 a.m. and the 1-meter hurdle to begin at 11 a.m. By United Press International KANSAS CITY, Mo.—Amos Ots singled in U.L. Washington from second base with two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning last night to lift the Kansas City Royals to a 4-3 victory over the Baltimore Orioles. Dave Frost, who won his first game as a Royal on Tuesday night, pitched two hittess innings to up his record to 2-0.
