Defense sparks KU victory, 80-71
By JOHN P. THARP
Associate Sports Editor
A jubilant Wilmore Fowler (*00*) watches his pass to Boony Ned turn into a lay-in and pounce while Iowa State's Eric Davis trusts it too late to protect the bucket. Fowler and Wilson fall back on the ball and miss the basket.
Kansas, using a fierce pressure defense and balanced scoring, ran away early from Iowa State before posting an 80-71 victory last night.
After being the victim of defensive murder in two prior losses, KU switched spots and became a swift and pushy foulman, ball-grabbing an American on the ball, forcing ISU to commit 24 turnovers, in the first half. Between KU's defense and 12,340 faithful fans, the Cyclones must have taught Allen House was an immense pressure cooker.
After the first 5% minutes, KU never trailed, mainly because Iowa State just couldn't hang on to the ball to set up any shots. So the team had a defensive-fuelled scoring machine.
---
The Cyclones were visibly rattled, giving the ball up on five-second violations on inbounds and falling to KU's magnetic man-to-mand and intense full-court press.
"THEIR FULL court press hurts us some," Lynn Nance, the Cyclone coach, said. "We failed to get into our offense early and that also hurt us.

"We just weren't ready for the man-to-man and the press."
Nance said a few other teams had pressed the Cyclones but the combination of Darnell Valentine, who had a game-high three shots in his second Fowler was just too much for his team.
About Mokesi, Nance said, "He got a lot of those (points) in the zone."
If time of possession had been kept, KU probably would have had a three-goal-second shot from the team passing and worked the ball to the second tallest man in the league, Paul
Mokesi, who has had two straight dismal performances and a poorer than expected season, looked like Lazarus, leading KU points and both squads with 15 rebounds.
For KU, 17-4 overall, it was the ninth straight victory.
Women overwhelm Wichita State, 103-63
Kanaas was just too hot to handle as it
topped a 16-1 lead in the game's first 38
minutes.
The 19th-ranked Jayahaws were just too much for Wichita State University in the conference opener for KU last night in Wichita. KU overwhelmed WSU 103-63.
KU hit the century mark with 1424 on a lapup by Fat Mason. that made KU's total
Just seconds later, All-American Lynette Woodard scored the game's last basket to make KU's final score of 103. The team has topped the 100-point mark two other times this season. KU won its season opener from Claremont Junior College by 103-78球. Woodard went West Texas. State University 118-39 in a tournament in Wichita earlier this month.
Wichita did not find the range until 16:27 remained in the first half. But by then, it was just a matter of by how many points the Javahwks would win.
KU shot a respectable 59 percent from the field and 72 percent from the free-throw line.
goal shooting and 61 percent shooting from the line. Kansas outrebounded Wichita 52-34.
Woodward all set a sorcers with 40 points, Teammate Adrian Mitchell, who fouled out for the second straight game, tallied 26. He scored on center and center Spark Holden added 10.
Gorolo was the top scorer for Wichita with 18 points. Smith added a dozen and eight points.

Kansas (103)
NANCE HOPED that his team's alternating zone defenses would another KU, like Kansas State's did, but instead the defensive back field, for 43.4 percent. John Crawford, who played just more than half the game, hit all of his 14 points from the field, most of them in the first quarter.
Crawford said that in practice, he had been working on his outside shooting and wanted to take the eight to 10-footers in the game.

KANSAS FINALLY got some scoring from the bench with the reserves scoring 28 points, led by Booty Neal with 12. This helped take the pressure off mall-eat ticket Valentine, who hit only nine points but gave away a game-high eight assists.
"The bench did an excellent job," KU coach Ted Owens said. "You'll see of a lot of people playing. We'll be going to the big stadium. You'll use the whole bench when we have to."
Woke up inside tips, as Crawford did, Mokeski also was hitting from the outside, but not with any punch. Crawford and Mokeski fouled out, a reflection of their combined defensive skills.
All-conference guard Andrew Parker led both sides in scoring with 27 points but could only muster eight in the first half when he scored. He committed a total of seven turnovers.
All 11 Jayhawks saw playing time in the game.
KU's victory boosted its conference record to 2-4, and into a tie with Colorado for second place. The Buffaloes won in Boulder last night from Missouri. 8249.

New weights coach named
Keith Phanth will take over the job Feb. 1. He replaces Ron Hubbard, who resigned to accept an assistant football coaching position at the University of Colorado.
Kephart was a recruiting coordinator and weight and strength coach at Iowa State University in Ames for six years and head junior varsity football coach there for two years. He also has won the Central Midwest holding Challenge and is a former Mr. Iowa.

DOUG MESSER, business manager for men's athletics, said Kehart's appointment was temporary until the department could comply with affirmative
action guidelines, which require that the position be advertised and applications accepted. He said Kephart planned to apply for the full-time position.
Hubbard said his only reason for leaving KU was to accept the position at CU.
"My responsibilities will include scouting and recruiting in addition to the weight of the contract," Hubbard said. "And of course anyone who wouldn't want to work for Chuck Fairtanka would."
Fairbanks wants to leave his head coaching position with the New England Patriots to become head coach at CU. The Patriots have obtained a preliminary injunction from a federal judge in Boston preventing him from signing with CU.
