Big 8 Meets This Weekend For Golfers, Tennis Team
Friday, Big Eight golfers will play 36 holes at Ames, Iowa where Iowa State will be hosting the Big Eight Golf Tournament.
Saturday morning 18 more holes will be played. This meet would have been held at Missouri where the other spring sports meets are being played, but a new course is being built there.
Each team will enter five men and the four best scores of each team will be used. Team and individual championships will be figured on medal play.
Coach Jerry Waugh figures Oklahoma State and Oklahoma to be contenders for the team title. He thinks KU has a good chance of finishing third if the team plays its normal game.
Must Win In K-State Game
Wednesday, May 14. 1958
The Kansas Jayhawkers' baseball team meets Kansas State Friday and Saturday in a three-game "must" series. The Jayhawkers, now in fourth place in the Big Eight with an 8-5 record, must win all three games from the Wildcats to have a chance at the league title if league-leader Oklahoma State should lost two games to Iowa State.
Oklahoma State leads the conference with an 11-3 mark, followed by Oklahoma University with 9-3. Missouri with 8-3 and Kansas.
Coach Floyd Temple expects to pitch ace left-hander Larry Miller Friday, and he will start Ron Wiley and Gary Russell Saturday.
"We are going along about the same as all season. Lack of depth in our pitching staff is the thing that hurts us." Temple said Tuesday.
Kansas State is in last place in the conference, but Temple said it had one good pitcher who would probably be troublesome to the Jayhawkers.
Waugh described the course as being "tight" with a lot of trees and a river running through it. He said Iowa State could be considered a dark horse for the title because it will be playing at home.
Kansas will go into the tournament with a 5-7 record after defeating Iowa State 5-2 Monday. Coach Denzell Gibbons said Thursday KU can finish as high as four, depending upon how the draw for opponents comes out.
Missouri is the host for the Big Eight Tennis Tournament, which will be held Friday and Saturday at Columbia.
Gibbons said Oklahoma State, Oklahoma and Colorado would be the favorites for the title. A lot depends upon the draw for opponents.
Kansas played on the Missouri courts earlier this season and defeated the Tigers 7-0.
