Frosh Fall in Two Overtimes
By Ted Dielman
It took Kansas State two overtime periods last night to hand the KU freshmen their first defeat of the season. 97-95.
The Jayhawkers had defeated the Kansas State freshmen 72-57 earlier this month.
Guard Jerry Gardner led the Jayhawkers with 39 points, Wayne Hightower added 28 to the cause.
Hightower fouled out with two minutes and nineteen seconds left to play in the game, but the KU crowd still had an atmosphere of confidence until Richard Ewy, K-State guard sank a shot from 25 feet with two seconds remaining, throwing the game into a 76-76 deadlock and the first overtime period.
Kansas jumped to an early lead in the first overtime period 82-76. But Scott Allen hit his only field goal of the evening and Ewy hit another one from the field to put the Wildcats back into the ball game.
The Jayhawkers went into a stall with 1:40 left in the period. But once again Kansas State gained possession of the ball and with three seconds remaining Leslie Nesmith, KU forward, fouled the troublesome Ewy who sank both free throws to deadlock the game 82-82.
The second overtime retained the same high pitch of excitement, the lead going first to the Jayhawkers and then to K-State. The Wildcats finally moved ahead 95-92 with sixteen seconds remaining. With Hightower out on fouls the spirit of the small but noisy crowd seemed to fall a little.
But a spark, provided by Gardner, was kindled when the speedy guard took his own rebound on an attempted shot and made the second one count. In shooting, Gardner drew a foul and dropped in another point to bring KU within one point.
Gardner then drew his fifth foul. Warren Brown sank both free throws and the Wildcats had their victory.
Kansas State kept a small margin all through the first ten minutes of the game, after which the lead changed hands several times with K-State ending up ahead 45-36 at the end of the first half.
The second half proved to hold a little more excitement when the Jayhawkers, sparked by Jerry Gardner, moved up into a one point lead in the first four minutes of the second period.
The game once more went into a stalemate with neither team holding over a four-point lead for any length of time until the Jayhawkers moved ahead 73-66 with a little over four minutes of playing time left in the period.
A Kansas State spurt moved the Wildcats to within two points of the Jayhawkers, 76-74, with 19 seconds left in the game. Then Ewy sank his first clutch shot of the evening.
Besides Gardner's 39 points and Hightower's 28, Goetze had 12,
Hensley 6, Smith 6 and Nesmith 4.
Gymnastic Team Ready for Meet
KU's gymnastics team will leave today for Boulder, Colo., to participate in the All-College Gymnastics Meet this Friday and Saturday.
In the Jawhawkier lineup will be Clayton Lang, Holton sophomore, sidehorse and parallel bars; Bob Lockwood, Lawrence junior and team captain, high bars, parallel bars, and rings; Stan Allen, Wichita senior, tumbling; Don Clifford, Wichita freshman, free exercise, tumbling, and trampoline, and Dan Grover, Lawrence junior, free exercise and tumbling.
The team will miss the services of its number two man, Bill Steele.
San Marino, Calif., sophomore, who is out with a leg injury. Steele is an all-apparatus man, participating in the high and parallel bars, sidehorse and rings.
Although this is only the second year that KU has had a gymnastics team, Coach Laptad is looking for a good showing at the Boulder meet which, he said would be comparable to a regional tournament in basketball.
He said that gymnastics, which is an important sport in the East, has just begun to make strides in the Midwest.
