Sports University Daily Kansan Thursday, Oct. 10, 1985 13 News Briefs Rain forces 'Hawks to practice indoors Rain once again forced the Kansas Jayhawks to practice in Anschutz Sports Pavilion, but head coach Mike Gottfried said the Jayhawks were on schedule in their preparations for Iowa State. Kansas travels to Ames, Iowa on Saturday for the Big Eight Conference opener for both teams. Kansas has a 4-1 record, and the Cyclones are 2-2. The 11:40 a.m. game will be televised locally on KSN channel 27 and KMBC channel 9. Gottfried said defensive tackler Robert Tucker would not play, and it was doubtful that tight end Sylvester Byrd would play. Byrd suited up, but did not work out in drills yesterday. Free safety Wayne Ziegler, who has recovered from a knee injury, is expected to be in the starting line-up against Iowa State. Strong safety Marvin Mattox is also returning to the line-up, and is expected to be used in a backup role, Gottfried said. Wide receiver Skip Petee, who injured his knee in the Hawaii game on Aug. 31, ran on his own yesterday. Gottfried said he could return for the Kansas State game Oct. 19. Team finishes 15th The Jayhawk's three-round total of 993 left them well behind tournament champion Louisiana State's 912 five-person total. LSU's Jenny Lidback won the tournament with rounds of 72, 71 and 74 for a 217 total. A 15th place finish out of 17 teams at the Memphis Women's Invitational in Memphis, Tenn., this week does not have the team smiling.

Following Georgia Tech in the poll are Michigan, North Carolina, Georgetown, Duke, Illinois, Notre Dame, Auburn, Louisville and Kansas. Blue Jays win to take 2-0 lead in series United Press International TORONTO — Lloyd Moseby, the center of a controversial umpire's call minutes earlier, singled home the tying run and scored the game-winning run in the bottom of the 10th inning yesterday, giving the Toronto Blue Jays a 2-0 lead in the American League playoffs with a 6-5 victory over the Kansas City Royals. From staff and wire reports. With the Blue Jays trailing 5-4, Moseby singled home Tony Fernandez from second base to tie the score. He advanced to second on an error by first baseman Steve Babbion and scored on a single by Al Oliver. The decision sends the best-of-seven series to Kansas City, with the Royals needing to win at least two of their games there to force a return to Tampa. The winning pitcher was Tom Henke, who allowed two runs in his three-inning stint. The loser was relief ace Dan Quisenberry. In the bottom of the 10th inning, Fernandez hit a routine bouncer to shortstop Oxix Concepcion — who couldn't get the ball out of his glove, leaving Fernandez with a single. Fernandez advanced on an infield out by Damaso Garcia and Moseby singled to right field to tie the score. The decision marked the 11th straight playoff defeat for Kansas City manager Dick Howser. Despite the excitement on the field, attendance at Exhibition Stadium, which was 34,029, fell far short of capacity for the second straight game. He went to second base when Balboni couldn't handle a pick-off throw. Moseby scored one out later when Al Oliver punched a single to left field Kansas City had taken a 5-4 lead in the top of the 10th inning when Moseby stretched for Frank White's two-out liner to center field. Second base umpire Ted Hendry made no call. By the time right field umpire Dave Philips made the call, Willie Wilson had dashed home from second with the go-above run. The Blue Jays argued the decision without success. "I know I caught the baseball," Moseby said. "We didn't lose, so I'll call it an even-steven call." The Blue Jays seemed sure of a 4-3 victory following George Bell's tie-breaking sacrifice fly in the eight inning. But the Royals tied it in the top of the ninth when Pat Sheridan hit a pinch-hit homer. With the score 3-3 in the eighth, Mama singled the second and scoreed it first to fill the lead. Sheridan, batting for Darryl Motley, hit a 2-1 pitch deep over the right-field. It was the second ninth-inning home run allowed by Henkes within a week. Friday, with the Brewers beating pitching the AL East, New York's Butler homered to tie the score in a game the Blue Jays eventually lost. In the sixth inning, Kansas City starter Bud Blast stirred some controversy. With two outs, he hit Bell near the left elbow with a pitch. Bell pointed to the mound, bringing umpires between the pitcher and batter. Johnson followed with a single, putting runners on first and second. Black then threw a wild pitch, moving the runners ahead. Lou Thornton ran for Johnson at second base. Rather than intentionally wall Jesse Barfield, the potential tie breaking run, the Royals pitched to him. Barfield responded with a two run single up the middle to tie it 3-3. Kansas City took a 3-1 lead on a two-run homer by Willie Wilson in the third inning and an RBI double by Jim Sundberg in the fourth. With reliever Dennis Lamp shutting down the Royals on 3% innings of hitless relief, Toronto pulled back into the game.

Fernando Valenzuela and Tom Niedenfuer combined on an eight-hitter in shutting down the Cardinals and stopping the remarkable streak of St. Louis ace John Tudor, who had won 20 of his last 21 decisions. And it was the Dodgers' hustle on the bases and the defensive play of shortstop Mariano Duncan and first baseman Marcos Cabell that secured the victory. Game two of the best-of-seven series is tonight at Dodger Stacium with right-hander Orel Hershiser pitcher Chris Cox and left-hander Joaquin Aguirre of St. Louis. The Cardinals used speed and defense as their chief weapons to win 101 games during the season. Yet, the Cardinals' defense did them in. An error by third baseman Terry Perez is an unofficial error by glued-fingering the ball. He scored a double for Bill Madlock, led to all four runs. The Dodgers, known more for their power than their baserunning, also stole three bases in three attempts and executed a perfect squeeze play to thoroughly exasperate the Cardinals. The game was billed as a pitcher's duel between Tudor and Valenzuela and it remained true to that form forunning as the Dodgers had a 1-0 lead The Dodgers then gave a break to open a 4-10 lead in the sixth. With one out, Madlock hit a sharp grounder to Smith's backhand. Smith, unquestionably the best defensive shortstop in baseball, normally makes the play easy. This time the ball skipped off his glove into left field and Madlock made it to second. Surprisingly, it was ruled a double by the official scorers. That run was tainted because of a misplay by third baseman Pendleton on an easy grounder by Madlock with one out in the fourth. Madlock stole second and scored when Pedro Guerero, bothered by a sore left wrist that has hampered his power, bloomed a single to right. Then came a play even St. Louis manager Whitye Herzog had to admire. Doggers applied the technique play application to executed perfect. He dropped a Tudor intentionally walked Guerrero. But after Mike Marshall fled out, Mike Scisoria singled to center to score Madlock. bunt down the third base line and Pendleton, in his haste to get Guerrero at the plate, hit Tudor with the ball in the right elbow as Madlock scored. Sax doubled to left-center to score Scioscia and bring on reliever Ken Dayley.

By Heather Fritz By Heather Fritz Of the Kansan sports staff "The job is largely motivational." Porter said. "To be someone who's always at practice and always going all out." Christine Parr had been waiting for this for three years. Yesterday she was named co-captain of the women's tennis team along with Pam Ward. She also participated in individual sport as tennis, the two said, team leaders are sorely needed. Parr said that in the past some team captains had not been highly motivating. "You would look to them for motivation and it wasn't there," she said. "It needs to happen. You need to be more patient." They have the worst day of their life." In the past, head coach Scott Perelman had picked team captains. This year, he said he thought it was in his best interest to be for the players to choose the captains. tennis program. She said she was a late bloomer and didn't start playing tennis until high school. She had success in her region but never played junior tennis on a higher level. At Kansas, Porter mainly has played at the lower spots on the ladder. Parr came to Kansas on a scholarship from Kenilworth, Ill., where she won the state high school doubles championship in 1981. Last year, Parr won the Big Eight conference singles title playing No. 3 singles, and the year before she was the runner-up at No. 4 singles. Their styles of play also vary. While Parr usually rushes the net, playing a strong serve-and-volley game, Porter more often stays at the baseline. Where Parr's problems on court often stem from impatience or a lack of concentration, Porter's come from inexperience. The strokes are there, she said, but the experience isn't. Perr talks to herself — loudly — when things go wrong on the court; when the judge makes a decision. Parr is effervescent; Porter merely friendly. Porter is known as the hardest worker on the team, a reputation Perelman said she has earned. "Pam leads by example," he said. "She gives her very best every single day. "Christine really has a way about her which allows her to get along with everybody well. She's just matured into somebody who really deserves this." The two players are excited about their new roles and think they can work together to provide leadership for the team. "A good thing with Christine and me is if there's someone I can't talk to, she can," Porter said. "And if there's someone she can't talk to, I can. We've got the whole team covered." Parr said it was no secret that in the past the team experienced problems with unity — but this year things would be different. "In junior tennis, you hate the people you're playing against," she said. "College is really the first time you're on a team. In the past we've had petty stuff going in on the team. This year it will stop." Former TCU player may file suit if NFL refuses supplemental draft The NFL has a rule which forbids a player from competing in the league the same year in which he has played for a collegiate team. Trope has said that if the league did not hold such a draft he would take the NFL to court. He expected to reach a decision in the matter sometime this week. DALLAS — Running back Kenneth Davis, dismissed from the Texas Christian University football team last month for receiving money from alumni, was given as much as $18,000 over a four-year period, the Dallas Morning News reported yesterday. United Press International Davis said he started receiving money when he signed a national letter of intent in 1981. Davis was in New York on Tuesday with his agent Mike Trope to meet with National Football League commissioner Pete Rozelle. They asked Rozelle to hold a special supplemental draft so Davis — who led the National Collegiate Athletic Association in yards per carry last year — could be selected by an NFL team in hopes of playing this season. Last month TCU alumnus Dick Lowe resigned his position on the school's board of trustees and admitted in a letter to chancellor William Tucker that he had helped supply money to Horned Frogs football team, with which he dismissed seven of those players from the team. "I didn't know it was wrong when they were paying me money," Davis told the Morning News. "I thought it went along with the package. All the colleges that recruited me offered me money." "Mr. Lowe paid me the money," Davis said. Steve Mingle/KANSAN Kansas strong safety Travis Hardy, sporting his highly visible red bandanna, took a break from practice yesterday at Anschutz Sports pavilion. Hardy and the rest of the Jayhawks prepared for Saturday's Big Eight Conference opener against Iowa State in Ames, Iowa. KU safety set apart with red bandanna Bv Frank Hansel Of the Kansan sports staff Hidden beneath all the football gear, it can be fairly easy for players to vanish into obscurity. One Kansas Jayhawk doesn't have that problem. Travis Hardy can be easily spotted on the field — just look for the red bandanna. Hardy, a senior strong safety, said he started wearing the bandanna in his sophomore year during spring practice after he and his roommate, senior linebacker Willie Pless, shaved their heads. "My helmet was too big so I started wearing it to help tighten up the helmet." Hardy said. "Now I wear it out of habit." Hardy said he forgot the bandanna during one practice and it felt as though he were naked. The bandanna Hardy is wearing this season was a gift from a female fan. "Last season, this lady came up to me after a game and gave me a new bandanna," Hardy said. "I thought she was great and really have some great fan here." In addition to switching bandannas this season, Hardy has switched positions. He played outside linebacker in the wide tackle six defense the Coach Mike Gottfried said safety was Hardy's strongest position with the players Kansas had on defense this season. Jayhawks used last season. Now he is the starting strong safety. "He's got the strength and speed for his position," Gottfried said. "He has to play a dual role, because he needs to cover pass receivers as well as defend the run." Hardy was the only defensive back to keep his starting job last week against Eastern Illinois when Gottfried inscribed four new starters. Although Hardy has kept his startling role, there is one thing Hardy is still striving for — an interception. He has not intercepted a pass in his KU career. "I've had five deflections this year, and three of them were catchable." Hardy said. "I don't mind not inadvertently making a mistake the receiver doesn't catch it either." Gottfried said Hardy had played consistently all season and had become one of the team leaders. "His intensity level is always high." Gottfried said. "He's the kind of guy you see running around town all year long working hard to stay in shape." Nebraska coach Iba denies supervising early basketball practice LINCOLN, coach. Neb. — Nebraska basketball coach Moe Iba said yesterday he had no reaction to report the Cornhuskers practiced in violation of National Collegiate Athletic Association rules. The Associated Press Iba said he had read that the Daily Nebraskan, the University of Nebraska student newspaper, had a tape recording of a closed practice at an NU gymnasium Monday. "I just have no comment or reaction to that." Iba said. "We have to report the thing to the NCAA and go to the court to use of the stories that were printed." Iba on Tuesday denied there was a practice with coaches present Monday. Iba said we watched the team run sprins. NCAA rules prohibit practice before Oct, 15; supervised conditioning drills are permitted. David Berst, the NCAA enforcement director, said he was aware of the matter. "I cannot say what we will do in reaction to the reports." Berst said. "We cannot comment on our procedures, if any, that will be taken." Berst and the procedure the NCAA (followed when violations were observed). department of the school involved that an investigation had started. "Under the new NCAA penalty structure, it would be hard to say what penalties would be handed out if there was a violation of the out-of-season rule this year." Bernt said. Reporters who listened to a tape made by a Daily Nebraskan sports writer said they could hear sounds of basketball shoes squeaking on the floor, basketballs bouncing and a "I have checked the rules," he voice that sounded like Iba's. The Daily Nebraska said the tape was "very weird." On Tuesday, Iba denied wrongdoing. "I simply have no comment about the tape or what is on the tape." Iba said. "The team will be going through running drills today (yesterday) and we open practice next week." said. "Everybody in the country has a preseason program like ours. Our kids play some pickup games and shoot baskets. We aren't present when they do that. Then we go in and run them. What we are involved in is basically a conditioning program, which is legal." Nebraska Athletic Director Bob Devany said he called Iba after hearing about the tape recordings.
