Crisp fall weather made play a bit difficult yesterday at the 54-hole Kansas Invitational Tournament at Alvamar Golf Course, but it didn't keep Missouri from taking the lead after 36-holes with a team score of 594.
Head coach Ross Randall said the weather forecast for yesterday was not accurate.
The weatherman missed by 15 degrees, "Randall said. 'It wasn't 60 and sunny. It was really cold this morning, but there wasn't any wind at all until late. The golfers could stay warm with windbreakers on, but the cold did have an effect."
Tim Johnson led the team with scores of 77-71 for a 36-hole total of 148. The KU Blue team was tied for second with Nebraska at 596.
Johnson said he preferred playing in warm weather, but the cold wasn't his main problem yesterday.
"I HIT THE ball pretty well," Johnson said, "but I was not putting too well. I didn't hit the ball well early, but after about five holes, I started to hit the ball a little better."
Johnson said putting had always been the weakest part of his game, but practice on the greens may start to lower his scores.
"So much is not mechanical, it is mental," Randall said. "It is like a circle. If you put well, you think you can put well. If you miss a lot of puits, you lose confidence and you won't put well."
Johnson said playing on his home course was an advantage because he knew which clubs to choose, but his play didn't improve just because he was on his home course.
"It's the same thing all the time, it doesn't matter where the tournament is played."
The rest of the team scores were Wichita State, 107; Iowa State, 612; Colorado, 612; KU Ridge.
The individual scores for the KU Blue team after Johnson were: Steve Madsen, 76-74-150; Jim Phillips, 75-76-151; Brian Gustafson, 74-77-153 and Kevin Gustafson, 89-73-153.
Randall said that Gustafson was an important part of the team's second-place standing.
"GUSTAFSON REALLY HELPED out a lot," Randall said. "He is playing more like what we hewed he would be able to do."
The team didn't quite do what it was capable of doing. Randall said, but he was happy with the team's performance.
"I am happy with the positive things," Randall said, "but we did not play as well as
we could have. It is hard to get everybody to play well at once. We could have had a chance to get a big lead on Missouri, but we didn't do it.
"I was pleased with our steadiness. We had a spread of only five shots."
The individual scores for the KU Red team were: Todd Zimmel, 73-77-150 Dan Cal Hihan, 77-78-155, Mark Punteney, 79-78-157, Chris Cejka, 78-79-157 and James Hegerty, 79-79-156
"This is a good opportunity for all of us to play against each other," Randall said. "Some of the teams in the tournament are among the teams being considered for an invitation to the NCAA national tournament."
Randall said that Missouri was favored to win the tournament and that Nebraska had beaten KU this year.

Pless honored by conference for play vs. OU
By PHIL ELLENBECKER Associate Sports Editor
Willie Pless, who has been KU's nominee for Eight Big Defense Player of the Week every week this season, yesterday was named the winner of the award for his play in KU's 28-11 upset of Oklahoma Saturday.
Pless was originally credited with 10 tackles, eight unassisted, in Saturday's game. However, a review of the game film showed that Pless actually had 25 tackles, 18 of them unassisted. He also caused a fumble and spearheaded a defensive effort that held the Sooners to their lowest offensivevardge output since 1966.
The revised tackle figure gives Pless 396 career tackles, breaking the KU career mark. Kyle McNorton previously held the lead and led up to 301 tackles between 1978 and 1981.
This is the second time Pless, a 6-foot, 215-pound junior, has won conference defensive player of the week honors. He also won the award in KU's final game last year, a 37-27 victory over Missouri in which he had 22 tackles, 17 unassisted. He led the conference in tackles last year with 188 and was named All-Bie Fight.
Pless, whom head coach Mike Gottfried has called the best player he's ever coached, leads the conference in tackles again this year. He has 150, an average of 19 a game, with three games left in the season
Pless and his teammates began preparation for this week's game against Colorado in Boulder with a light workout yesterday.
Gottfried said he stressed mental toughness to his team to maintain the edge of competition.
"The good thing about the win is that it gave us confidence," he said. "Not overconfidence. When you've won only three games you can't afford to be overconfident, but it's a good example to point to."
Although Colorado has only a 1.7 record this season, Gottfried he thought the Buffaloes had a better team this year than they then defeated KU 54-23 in Lawrence
"They had the toughest non-conference schedule of anybody in the league, and they played well against all those teams," he said. "They've played everybody soundly."
