Correll, Comley Paired As Kansas-KSU Clash
Kansas will face many problems in its game tonight in Manhattan as it meets second place, seventh ranked Kansas State, but foremost may be the outstanding shooting of 6-5 Wildcat forward Larry Comley.
Comley is the Big Eight's third best scorer, averaging close to 19 points a game.
KANSAS COACH DICK Harp has assigned Al Correll to guard the junior sharpshooter as was the case when KU breezed to a 75-66 win over Tex Winter's squad in Allen Field House almost a month ago.
"Comley doesn't drive much but he is an excellent outside shooter, therefore, I must play up on him all the time," said Correll in explaining how he would defense the K-State star.
"HE MAY CHANGE his style somewhat to try and confuse me. There is also a possibility they may use some special screens to bother me and shake him loose," continued the 6-3 defensive ace.
KU Frosh Lose To KSU, 67-55
The Kansas State freshmen, taking advantage of KU's numerous mistakes and shooting inaccuracy, downed the young Hawks 67-55 in Allen Field House last night.
LEADING THE VISITORS was the deadly duo of Junior Miller, 6-2 center, and Max Moss, 6-0 forward.
Miller connected on jumpers from nearly every position near the key-hole to score 25 points.
Moss demonstrated his deadly shooting accuracy as he hit long set and jump shots to pour in 21 points.
FOR KU IT WAS A one man effort. Jay Roberts, 6-4 forward, scored 16 of the team's 22 first half points and finished the game with 22. Dave Stinson provided the second half scoring punch scoring 10 of his 12 points in the last frame.
KU started the game strong as it surged to a 7-2 lead in the first three minutes. At this point it looked like the Hawks would run away with the game. But KU fell behind 33-22 at halftime.
THE KU FROSH came out strong in the first three minutes of the second half as they cut the Wildcats lead to seven points. K-State countered with three straight baskets to build up a margin that was never to be overcome.
Coach Ted Owen's crew finished its season with a 1-3 mark, being defeated by Missouri and Parsons Juco and winning over the same K-State team last Wednesday night at Manhattan 81-69.
"He almost always dribbles at least once and usually twice before shooting which is a good tip-off to me," said Correll, "and I can then move to the right as much as possible to stop his shot."
CORRELL CALLED COMLEY one of the best players he has faced in the Big Eight and mentioned he looks forward to playing against him because, if he beats him, he knows he will have accomplished something.
KU's backcourt fireman, Dee Ketchum, pointed out at practice yesterday that the Kansas State guards had an off night in the game here and then commented on a few things which may lead to another KU dominance of the backcourt which was so obvious here.
"AL PEITHMAN (sophomore star who has won several games for Kansas State with last minute scores) likes to go to his left and Coach Harp told Nolen Ellison to force him back to his right. Nolan did this and Peithman was bothered and wasn't able to score well," said Ketchum.
KETCHUM SAID the key to beating the Wildcats may be putting pressure on their guards, forcing them to make ballhandling mistakes. This worked well in the game here and the one point loss which the Wildcats suffered to Colorado last week.
"THEIR GUARDS HAVENT shown much finesse under pressure thus far, especially with their ball-handling. A lot of outside pressure should be very effective against them. If one of us starts to apply pressure usually the others will use it and pretty soon we have the other team in trouble." said the 6-0 senior.
If talking to these two Jayhawkers is any sample of what the entire Kansas team feels about the crucial game tonight, the Jays will likely come home two games ahead of the field with only four contests left on their schedule.
