The men's cross country team won and the women were second only to conference champion Nebraska at the Jayhawk Invitational Saturday in cold and drizzle at Rim Rock Farm, north of Lawrence.
The Kansas men's team scored 37 points to finish ahead of Nebraska, which scored 40 points. Pittsburg State was third with 56 points.
Nebraska's women's team scored a perfect 15 points to win the title, followed by Kansas with 57 points and Drake with 79 points.
For women's coach Cliff Rovello, it was right where he thought the women would be.
"I thought they ran pretty well," he said. "They ran a lot closer together this week."
The first five finishers were all from Nebraska. The top finisher for Kansas was freshman Melissa Satterfield, who placed sixth in 18 minutes, 20.4 seconds. Freshman Shaula Hatcher was next for Kansas in 18:27. Kim Sheridan finished tenth in 19:15.6 after a poor performance last week.
"I'm happy with how i ran." Sheridan said. "We didn't run quite up enough with Nebraska but we ran closer than last week as a team."
Satterfield said, "I ran a lot better than last week. I’m disappointed that five Nebraska people were still ahead of me. I want to move up on the girls that beat me."
Rovello said that the first four Nebraska finishers were national qualifiers and All-Americans. He was pleased with the efforts of freshmen Rachel Albright and Jodie
McDonald, who finished 16th and 18th.
"Rachel and Jodie were doing a fantastic job," he said. "They and Kim were walk-ons here. They're saving our butt. If they weren't here we wouldn't be very good."
Freshman Suzanne McKay fell and hurt her hip, but still finished the race. She came in 24th in 20:42.2.
"She can run up there with Kim," Rovelto said. "She and Trisha Mangan will improve so much."
Ben Welch finished fourth in 32:44.28 for the men's team, followed by Gordon Way, sixth, in 33:07.22. Craig Watke and Gerald Harder finished seventh and eighth.
NFL roundup
"I was pleased with everything," said coach Bob Timmons. "They had better control. They competed well late in the race, which they didn't do last week."

The Associated Press

Saints 20, Bucs 13
Dave Wilson threw for a pair of touchdowns and safety Terry Hoage forced a fumble and intercepted a pass at New Orleans.

Colts 14, Lions 6
At Indianapolis, Colts reserve fullback Gore Wonsley rushed for a career-high 170 yards on 27 carries. He also caught five passes for 32 yards as Red Dowhower won his first game as an NFL coach. The Lions'
Darryl Rogers suffered his first NFL coaching defeat.
Chargers 44, Bengals 41
Bob Thomas' 34-yard field goal with four seconds remaining ended a wild game at Cincinnati. Lionel James caught one of Dan Fouts' four touchdown passes, good for 60 yards, and ran 56 yards on a draw play for San Diego. Fouts was 24-for-43 for 344 yards.
The Bengals, 0-3, led 41-34 with 4:39 left thanks to Larry Kinebrew's 8-yard scoring jaint. But Fouts found James, then James Brooks fumbled the ball back to the Chargers, who moved to the winning kick.
Cowboys 20, Brown s 7

Patriots 17, Bills 14
Irving Fryar returned a third-quarter punt for 85 yards and a touchdown on a second chance: Buffalo's John Kidd had punted and the Bills stopped Fryar. But they were penalized and Kidd had to kick again. This time, Fryar scooted the distance.

Phil McConkey, who grabbed the 20-yard TD toss, also had his first two catches of the year.
Jets 24, Packers 3
Tony Paige scored two touchdowns and the New York defense overwhelmed the error-prone Packers at Milwaukee. The Jets sewed up the victory early in the fourth quarter when the Packers tried running out of punt formation deep in their own territory.

49ers 34, Raiders 10
In a meeting of teams which have won two Super Bowls apiece in the past five years, the defending champions got two TD tosses from Joe Montana and a 28-yard scoring run after a fumble recovery from Milt McColl.
'Hawks win 10 of 11
By Heather Fritz Of the Kansan sports staff
Scott Perelman has to be happy.
Perelman, Kansas' head tennis coach, saw his Jayhawks win 10 of 11 in a tie with two tournaments this weekend.
The women won five of six top singles spots and swept the three doubles matches at the Drake in Des Moines and Saturday in Des Moines, Iowa.
The men's team hosted the Jayhawk Invitational Friday through Sunday and won both the singles and doubles championships in the open draw tournament.
At the men's tournament, Kansas' Mike Wolf defeated Nebraska's Craig Johnson 63, 3-6, 6-3 in the finals, then paired with Larry Pascal to win the doubles match. (Nikki McCauley; Mike Center and Kevin Brady)
Wolf had beaten Kansas' Dave Brody in the semifinals, 6-2, 6-2. In the other semifinal, Center lost to Johnson in three sets, 6-2, 5-7, 6-7.
Wolf won the first set of the singles final behind strong passing shots and drop volleys, then lost the next three games. He fought back from being down three games to none to 3-5 in the second set before Johnson held his serve to close out the set 3-6.
The second and third sets were marred by missed shots and lapses in concentration on Wolf's part.
At one point in the third set, he served his second serve into a side wall.
Also in the third set, Johnson hit a shot that was clearly out, and Wolf didn’t call it. As he walked back to the bench after eventually losing the point, Wolf said, “I don’t know what I’m thinking of.”
In the third set, Wolf broke Johnson's serve in the sixth game and never looked back. He ran out the match 6-3 with two drop shots in the final game that Johnson couldn't reach. It was Wolf's third Jayhawk Invitational title in as many years.
"It it was necessary for there to be a third set." Wolf said yesterday. "I had opportunities and if I had made half of them the (second) set would have been over 6-3.1 just wasn't as eager."
The surprise of the tournament for the Jayhawks was Jim Secrest. Ninth on the Kansas ladder, he wasn't even supposed to compete this weekend. But after a Kansas State player pulled out, Perelman called Secrest at 6:15 Friday morning and asked him to play.
On the women's side, Tracy Treps won the number one singles over Minnesota's Anna Hallgren, 6-3, 0-6, 7-6. Barb Inman, Christine Kim, Christine Parr and Janelle Bolan also won their singles divisions.
