13,000 see Late Night action
By Derek Simmons Kansan sportswriter
"Late night with Roy Williams." Kansas "first basketball scrimmage of the season, was pretty much what Coach Roy Williams expected.

"The next practice is my practice," he said. "This one was for the fans."
Thirteen thousand people watched the Blue team defeat the Red team 58-55, and Williams said the fans were surprised surprising part of the冠軍.
"We have the best fans in the entire country," he said. "It's amazing that 13,000 fans came to see a practice at midnight on a school night."
The Blue team was led by guard Terry Brown's 19 points. Brown made seven of 13 field goals, including four of seven three-pointers.
ers.
Forward Mark Randall scored 12 points for the Blue, and forwards Alonzo Jamison and Malcolm Nash
each scored 10. Sean Tunstall scored six, and Doug Elstun rounded out the Blue team.
Randall, who at 6-foot-9 has also played center for the Hawks, hit a three-pointer early in the second half but missed two more.
Although Randall is zero-for-one on three-point attempts in his career at Kansas, Williams said the shots did not surprise him.
"I told him he could take one at halftime," he said. "When we practice shooting, if a player can convince me he can hit it, I will let him
**shoot it.**
Will Williams let Randall shoot three-pointers when the season begins?
"Not yet," Williams said. "I'm not comfortable with it yet."
The Red squad was led by guard Rex Walters' 16 points. Walters, who was also four-for-seven on three-point attempts, is a transfer from Northwestern University and is not eligible to compete this season.
Brown said that Walters provided intense competition during the scrimmage.
"We kept going at it," Brown said. "He was good competition, and he was hot tonight."
was not tough.
Williams said he liked what he saw of Walters.
"He's a fine player," he said. "This is the first time I've seen him play in person. I wish he could play this year."
Guard Adonis Jordan and forward Patrick Richey each scored nine points for the Red, and forward Kirk Wagner scored eight points. Forward Richard Scott scored five, and center David Johanning scored two.
Freeman West, a forward for Kansas whose eligibility expired after last season, scored six points for the Red. West played because injuries to forwards Mike Maddox and Richey left the team short-handed.
"Late Night with Roy Williams"
did not get off to a good start. The Homestead Graes, a Lawrence band
event, arrived on an hour late,
Comic David Naster, host for the event, had trouble filling the time.
Naster grabbed spectators to attempt free throws and halfcourt
shots, and recruited two members of the women's basketball team for an improptu free throw-shooting contest.
Williams said he was impressed with Naster's handling of the dead time before the band arrived. More disappointing were microphone problems during Kirk Wagner's rendition of "One Last Time" Never Rains in Southern California.
The players' skit featured Alonzo Jamison as Arsenio Hall and Malcolm Nash lip-synching MC Hammer songs.
The pre-scrimimage show's finale had Nash lip-syncing "Can't Touch This," with most of the rest of the team and the Crimson Girls dancing. Williams also danced — with some madding from Maddux.
"It was the first time I've danced in the state of Kansas," Williams said. "We have three prospects here, they feel like I danced just for them."
"Mike dragged me out there because last week I said he was the wonder dancer on the team, and he's still the worst dancer."

Ride on
Jayhawks fare well at Iowa invitational Women place second; men take third behind first and third teams in nation
By Juli Watkins Kansas sportswriter

The Kansas men's cross country team took third place at the Iowa State Invitational on Saturday behind the two and third-ranked teams in the nation.
Cross Country
Host Iowa State, the defending men's Big Eight and NCAA champion, won the men's meet with 24 points. Wisconsin ranked 3.0 in the Big Ten, followed by Texas, Cols. Poll, placed second with 38 points by Kansas with 76 points.
The Kansas women's team finished second.
Illinois State was fourth with 105 points. Last year Kansas edged out Illinois State at the District Five Championships and qualified for the NCAA Championships in Gary. Gary won an ongoing rivalry existed between the two teams.
"They're probably more hopped about it than we are," he said. "We beat them last year. As for Saturday's race, it's not like we bleem them away or anything. They'll be back for more."
Senior Stewart Gillin again led the Kansas men with an 11th place finish in 26:18 on the eight-kilometer course.
The next three Kansas runners to cross the finish line placed 13th through 15th. Freshman Michael Cox, 13th, had a time of 26:19. Freshman David Johnston and junior Donnie Anderson crossed the first half with four innings. Ladd McClain was the fifth Kansas runner with a time of 26:55.
Anderson, men's captain, said that he thought the team performed well but that they could have done better. He said the field of runners was smaller than in a big meet so there weren't a lot of runners from other teams to break up Iowa State's top finishers.
"It looks like they beat us by a lot, but I think we're capable of running better against them in a big race like nationals," he said.
Anderson said faring so well
against such high-caliber teams gave him confidence for future performances.
"I felt like I was running a little faster than I actually was," he said. "I was a little flat, but it was a confidence-builder because there really good runners who were finishing only a few seconds ahead of me."

Schwartz said he was pleased with the team's performance.
"I think that our team responded really well to the competition," Schwartz said. "We were running against the first and third-ranked teams in the nation, and on the basis of third place, no, I'm not pleased, but in that race, yes, I am. I think we ran really well."
"Stewart Gillin had a really strong result as did Donnie Anderson and our freshmen. On the women's side, Julie Howerton has had good races her last couple of races and Patrych Rofford had one of her best races. Cathy (Palacios) also had a strong race."
The Kansas women took second place with 46 points behind Colorado's 24 points.
Palacios, a junior, was the first Kansas runner, placing fourth overall in the five-kilometer race in 18:20. Rochford, a senior, was second for Kansas and fifth overall with a time of 18:38. Howerton, a senior, was tenth in 19:60 followed by sophomore Cindy Worthington, and junior Helena Hafstrom, in 14:19 in 12:22.
The cross country teams will not compete this weekend while they prepare for the Big Eight Championships Oct. 27 in Lincoln, Neb.
"This weekend was a big test," Schwartz said. "I think we passed. Iowa State is still on top of the heap, but second place is wide open."
