14 Thursday, December 6.1979 University Daily Kansan Jayhawks take terrific tumble in final minutes to lose again By MIKE EARLE Associate Sports Editor If basketball games were a minute shorter, KU's basketball seasons might be a lot longer. Since last year's Kentucky game, the Jayhawks have lost eight games in the final minute. The latest came last night in Southern Methodist University in Dallas. With the Jawahars on top by six points with 1:43 left in the game, the Mustangs rallied for seven unanswered points and an 89-88 victory. "We played good basketball for 38 minutes," KU coach Ted Owens said. "We just gave it away. We had them in our room, and then we made some silly mistakes." KU'S BIGGEST MISTAKES were two costly turnovers after Darnell Valentine, who scored 25 points, fouled out with 1:43 left in the game with the Hawks ahead 88-82. That foul gave the Mustangs a three-run lead. The Jayhawks then promptly fell apart. After a steal, Brad Branson, leader of the SMU scoring with 17, brought the Mustangs to within one point at 88-87 with 41 seconds to xo. The 'Hawks elected to stall, but SMU's Ollie Hoops stole the ball and was fouled driving for the layup. After a KU timeout, Hoops hit on both ends of a one-and-one free throw situation with 15 seconds left in the game, giving the Mustangs an 89-88 lead, and the ea Jin Crawford got off a desperation shot in the remaining seconds, that missed the backboard leaving KU its second setback on the road this season in as many games. "We had three different pumps put the ball up when they should've shot. 'Owens hit a home run,' he said. "The turning point of the game was when we had a substantial lead late in the game." "THEY RALLLED AT the end, but we have to expect that and do a better job of protecting the ball. Obviously, we were superior of the two teams, but we gave it away. We were prepared well oller-and Darnell played a super game." KU led by as many as 14 points during the game on the strength of Valentine's floor play and game-high 25 points. After a slow start, Ricky Ross, who started his first game for the Jayhawks, responded with 18 points. Tony Guy also turned in a solid perforated piece of consecutive game. Guy finished with 19 points on 57 percent shooting from the field and sunk 3 of 4 shots from the frenzied throw. AND FOR THE first time this season, Owens received a solid performance from the pivot position. Chester Giles played his first three games with 10 points and pulling down 16 rebounds. Paul Mokeski was the last KU player to get as many rebounds in a game. He it against Colorado late in the 1977-78 season. Mokeski helped the 19th-ranked Jawahra to 12. In other Big Eight action last night, Colorado took a 70-65 non-conference victory over Air Force, boosting their state down Oklahoma City 84-38. Kansas wins against no losses and Iowa State raised their record to 2-1, with a 121-82 KU returns to Allen Field House for a Saturday night game with San Diego State. The 'Hawks lost to the Aztecs last season 81-69. victory over the University of Missouri — Kansas City. | | PL | FT | REB | PF | TP | | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Guy | 2.4 | 0.0 | 5 | 10 | 18 | | Magley | 2.4 | 0.0 | 5 | 10 | 18 | | Valentine | 10-14 | 5-5 | 16 | 5 | 10 | | Ross | 13-19 | 5-5 | 2 | 10 | 18 | | Croghan | 9-14 | 5-5 | 2 | 10 | 18 | | Craighead | 9-14 | 5-5 | 2 | 10 | 18 | | Hughes | 9-14 | 5-5 | 2 | 10 | 18 | | Totals | 15-41 | 10-50 | 36 | 17 | 48 | Branston PG FT NT REB PP TP Harra 3.4 FT 0 2 7 Harris 1.8 FT 0 2 7 Alten 3.9 FT 5.6 2 12 Alten 3.9 FT 5.6 2 12 Passer 6.11 FT 0 1 14 Passer 6.11 FT 0 1 14 Holmann 3.13 FT 0 3 13 Holmann 3.13 FT 0 3 13 TOTALS .38-42 0-17 29 29 TOTALS .38-42 0-17 29 29 Fouled out - Kannas; Magley, Valentine.

Tuesday. Scott didn't have time to be nervous about KU's game with Central Missouri State University. She had to get the job first, whom she first was probably just as well. The 6-2 freshman usually backs up Shirra Holden at card, but Holden didn't make the trip for personal reasons. Scott made the first start of her collegiate career. The Platteville, Wis., native responded with 12 points and 12 rebounds in the 74-66 KU victory. "I MADE a LOT of mistakes that I shouldn't have." Scott said. "I was nervous, but I guess I did okay. At times I hold my own, but at times I got tired. When I played in other games, I didn't play if I was so used to go in later in the game." "She's working very hard not to lose her poise and not to get flustered." KU head SCOTT IS KNOWN on the team as a hard worker who doesn't have much patience with her mistresses. Patience with herself is one of the KU coaches are trying to develop. coach marina Washington said. "She realizes more and more that the mistakes she is making are the kind that freshmen make." Although Scott still worries about her mistakes, she was beginning to take them more in stride. "I STILL DON'T like making mistakes," she said. "I was afraid to make mistakes in practice, but now I realize that is where they should be made." Another area Scott is working to improve is her strength and aggressiveness. In high school, Scott was always the top player on court, but in college things are different. "Each game I play I try to get tough and tough," Scott said. "I've got stronger inside and I'm trying to block more rebounds. I've learned so much fast." Washington said she was pleased with the progress Scott has made in her game. "Megan has been playing very steady from the beginning," she said. "She thinks and she follows through with the things I ask her to do. "Megan is more aggressive now, and she has more confidence in herself. The more experience she has, the more she is going to be offensive and defensively." SCOTT HAD TO BE very physical in the CMSU game. Although only 15 fouls were called on KU and 16 on CMSU, the game turned into a free-for-all. "It was a wild game," she said. "I guess you had to be there to appreciate it. We ran into a second half where there was no control of the game. "We lost the tempo of the game and Central Missouri took it to us. We came out smoking in the second half. We had a 82-37 win, seemed as seemed to no control of the game. "I felt we'd pull it out, but the way the game was being called I realized that it was going to be closer than I wanted. We had them by 25 points, but I've seen too much where, given the officiating, seven or minutes and 25 points were nothing." BUT WITH LYNETTE Woodchip in chicks in 23 points, 14 rebounds and nine assists and Scott's efforts, KU beat the Jennies "second-half rally. Shebra also was instrumental in raising KU's score to 11 points and grabbed nine rebounds. The rough play of style played led to many turnovers for both teams. KU finished the game with 38 turnups, while CMSU had 24. But the difference in the game could be much more because of percentage where KU had big edges. The 'Hawks outbounded the Jennies 49-29 and outshot them from the floor 55 percent. KU's next game is Saturday night in Norfolk, Va., against the nation's No. 1 team, Old Dominion.

"I THINK HERE will be more," Jewell said, "especially some of the better one. They might have a future of going to the Olympics." "People on the team are a lot more dedicated now," Sheehan said. "They should hang around for four years." Will more swimmers stay out for four years in the future? Jewell had good individual performances, improving her times in four events and placing fifth in the 202 individual medley. She placed third in the 50-year breast-feed competition and the waviness record holder and was a variety record-breaker for the 100 breastfeast her freshman year. Although improvement in women's sports has brought an influx of talent to KU and big Other Eight schools, Kermpf said he can still rely on his seniors. Sheehan is a member of the 200 freestyle relay the band that holds a school record, set at the Big Eight Championships last season. Kempf has invited four AAU clubs to compete with his team this Saturday. By JERRY FINCHER Plan #1 Includes Sports Writer Team's two seniors outlast their classmen The teams are the Blazers and Jets of Kansas City, Kan., the Topeka Swim Association and the Phillips 66 Splash Club, Bartlesville, Oklahoma. "THEY MIGHT NOT place first, Kempf said; 'but you'll always see their names in there' in the Big Eight meets. The two seniors are the first swimmers in the seven-year history of the program to stay out for four years, having competed on the national Kemp took over as head coach in 1974. Glee Jewell and Maureen Sheehan may not be remembered as the best senior swimmers in the history of the KU women's swim team, but they will always be the first. The duo will be doing what they've done for four years in an AAU Invitalient at 2 p.m. Saturday in Robinson Natatorium Jewell and Sheehan will be instrumental in the progress of the five-time defending Big Eight champs. "They've showed really strong leadership, 'Kemp said. "It's tough to take four years. They've done an outstanding job all four years." "Those two started out with me four years ago," Kempf said. "Hell, I couldn't be happier with those two." The four years of dedication, to a sport most others give up on long before their senior years, is what Kempf says he has built his team around. "WE'RE LOOKING FOR the fourth or fifth event they can swim at conference." Kemp said. "Everybody comes here looking awful in the morning, especially Gary. "It's real time-consuming and a lot of hard work," she said. "It's so much work to get out of bed every morning at about 6 for practice at 3:00 or four times a week." "Every team has its top performers. The reason we are so successful is that we have strong swimmers all the way down the line." Sheehan said a lot of girls quit because other things start becoming more important. "It makes me feel good all day long." "That was the best time I ever had in swimming," she said. "the whole team got going. Everybody cared about the whole team." Jewell said she would rank the team effort at the Big Eight Championships last season as the most important event of her college swimming career. Hamilton then played a team-high 40 minutes last night in Detroit's 109-83 loss to Kansas City Kings, it felt like 80 minutes to the former UCLA Flash. His stamina was particularly twofold. Kansas City alternated perilously with Ford and Billy McKinney against Hamilton. The constantly fresh Kansas City tandem combined for 24 points and nine assists against the wary Hamilton to hand the "D TAYRER SWIM on the kind of team we've got this year, and not be so good." Sheehan said. "We've got better people every year." Hamilton was forced to play 52 minutes Tuesday night in the Pitkins heart-stringing Celtics because of an injury injuries to N.1.
