Double-header opens with women's game
By PATTI ARNOLD Associate Sports Editor
On paper, it looks like a rout. The seventh-ranked team in the country against a junior college team from Oklahoma. But this junior college team was best program in the country, evidenced by a 1979 NJCAA championship.
Kansas, 6-4, plays this junior college, Northern Oklahoma, 8-1, today in the women's first home game. The Tippo's at 5:18 in Allen Field House.
Leo Canaday, the head coach of Northern Oklahoma, said yesterday that he didn't know much about the game. The Jawhays to be touch opponents.
"From what I understand,
Canaday said, "if you shut down
one, they have another who will
score."
THAT HAS BEEN THE case for KU this season. The Jayhawks have a strong bench, and KU Head Coach Mike McCarthy was called up for hesitation in calling on her reserves.
Northern Oklahoma is a running team and will attempt to run against Kansas. But to be a successful running team, the players must be strong. But Canaday said he didn't think his team had the height to do that.
"We like to run," he said. "Every team I have I stress the fast break. I think we have good overall speed, and we can't beat them on boards, you sure as beck can't run."
The Mavericks will use a man-to-man defense, but Canaday said he
wouldn't hesitate to switch to a zone if his team couldn't contain KU's sharphooters.
"We do what we feel is necessary to shut down the offense. I prefer man-to-man, but sometimes that doesn't work," he said.
IF KU TAKES the upper hand in the game, Washington could go to her bench, and Canady said he has 12 players he lists as starters.
Basically, he said, he has two squads that complement each other. If one squad has a problem in one area, the other usually tries to pick up the slack. But he did announce a starting lineup for the game.
Sandy Douglas, a 5-foot-9 guard,
was the leading scorer on last year's
team that went 28-5. Patti Komaly at
5-foot-8 is the other guard. Gayle
Stout, 5-foot-9, is one forward.
Starting in place of the Maverick's
top forward, Angela Reed, who
injured her ankle yesterday, will be
Jackie Eckels at 5-foot-11. The
center is 5-foot-1 Rocheille Ware.
WASHINGTON'S STARTING five is tentatively set with Lynette Woodard and Tracy Claxton at the wings, Mary Myers at point guard and Megan Scott and Connie Means at the posts.
Means, a junior, is a graduate of Northern Oklahoma, where she earned juco All-America honors last year as a center.
Several players should log play time, and Canaday said he hoped his squad would put on a good show.
"We'll be fighting for our lives," Canaday said. "I'm hoping like heck we can make it competitive."

KU meets Michigan in nightcap
KU's first two opponents, Pepperdine and Nevada-Reno, had young, inexperienced squads. Michigan, however, returns three of the top scorers from a team that was 17 last season. But they didn't have as much luck against Big Ten competition, finishing with an 8-10 conference record. The Wolverines did, however, go to the National Invitational Tournament.

Just how much will be displayed tonight when Michigan and Kansas tangle in Allen Field House. Tipoff is at 7:35.
Here in the cold, when winter comes, man's thoughts turn to basketball and the warmth of a roof over one's head. The colder the weather, the more emphasis placed on basketball. On that note, let it be said that in Michigan, folks place a tremendous amount of emphasis on basketball.
"I recruited Mike McGee very hard," in the Big Ten. He is a great spreadter.
One of the best players in the Big Ten last season was the Wolverines' 6-foot-5 forward Mike McGee. He averaged 22.2 points a game and KU Head Coach Ted Owens would have liked him to have scored those points for the Jawhacks.
Sports Writer
Also back for Michigan is Thad Garner, a 6-foot-7 junior forward and Paul Heuerman, a senior who alternates at center and forward at 6-foot-8. Heuerman was the last season, and Heuerman was close behind with 9.6 points a game.
MICHIHAN HAS WON its only game
the 180 season against Eastern
Michigan
Tony Guy, KU's leading scorer with 45 points, has had the hottest hand by far of any Jayhawk, while Darnell Valentine has been coldest. Guy has hit six home runs in his last three, while Valentine has shot 23 times and made only seven, a 30-percent mark.
After two games, both 14-point victories, the first on the road against Nevaud-Reno and Monday night's home opener against Peppardine, Owens has only a few complaints about the play of his Jayahwake队.
Against Pepperidge, KU started the game with a tough man-to-man defense and ended the game with 10 minutes of solid defense, in the middle half of the game the defense faltered, allowing the Waves to come back from a 14-point deficit. Part of the problem was an ineffective full-court press.
coach Bill Frieder. He took over after Johnny Ellr, Michigan coach for 12 years, accepted a job at Iowa State. Orr had 103-119 record at Michigan.
THE OPONENTS' defense was a problem for KU in the two games, especially when it was a zone and Booty Neal was not hitting 20-foot jumpers, as he did in the final 11 minutes against Penerdine.
"Our press was not effective," Owens said. "The man-to-man defense was excellent in the first 10 minutes."
"Our penetration was not good against the zone," Owens said. "We need the high and low post to perform."
The inside men, Art House and Victor Mitchell, have combined for 54 percent with Mitchell hitten 11-of-19 for 34 percent and Housey 3-of-7 for 43 percent.
Individually, Magley has hit 50
percent. Neal .48 percent and Crawford
.34 percent.
Although impressed with the shooting of Neal, Pepperdine Coach Jim Harrick that KU could win him in a strike zone by shooting from low range.
VALENTINE HAS made up for his shooting woes with his floor game, however. He had nine assists against three. He had one perp dine, proving that prepares talk of
SO FAR, MOST of the outside shots have been taken by Neal, David Magley and John Crawford. Those players have combined for 47 percent this season. They also have 35 percent in 1980, 33 percent against Nevada-Reno and 45 percent against Peperowind.
"The bad thing is that people expect him to hit that shot every time." Harriet of Neal "There are things that he beats off. Of those you don't win on that shot. If you live by
the long shot, you will die by the long shot."
Certainly, the early season performance by KU indicates that the Jayhawks will have a much better chance of survival with the outside shot than they did last season. KU made 48 percent of its shots last season, a KU record, but from outside the lane the Jayhawks failed to hit the said at the beginning of the season that long-range shooting would need to be one area of improvement.

In past seasons, much of KU's legitimate competition came after the annual game against Kentucky. This season that will change with Michigan, the third game of the season. Because of the toucher schedule this season, coaches have had to increase the Jayhawks were making an effort to concentrate on each game.
Freshman Kerwin Bell and two football banquet in the Kansas Union.
Bell, a concensus All-Big Eight performer and newcomer of the year in the conference, was named the outstanding offensive player of the year. He was presented by Billy Getto Award, was presented by John Hadl, offensive coordinator.
Bell led the Jayhawks in rushing with 1,114 yards and eight touchdowns. His rushing total was a Big Eight record for a freshman, and he scored 14th freshman to ever gain 1,000 yards.
The two seniors, Jeff Fox and Frank Wattete, also received player-of-the-year awards. Fox, a defensive tackle, was named the outstanding defensive player and Wattete, a free safety, was named the Ryvans Evans-Arthur Weaver
winner for the senior with best combined record in academics and
Fox, who is from LaCrescenta, Calif., led down linemen with 102 tackles. He received the Don Pierce Award, presented by Tom Batta, defensive coordinator. Fox also was voted the team's most valuable player.
Guy has been no slouch in the passing department, either. He had 10 assists against RB.
"If we expect to reach our goal of the NCAA playoffs we have to take the games one at a time," he said. "Each team stands in our way of reaching each goal."
Wattetle, who is from Abilene, was one of KU's captains this season. His award was presented by Mike Fisher, academic counselor.
The coaches chose the defensive and offensive awards. The players voted for the most valuable player award.
a team-oriented game was not idle chatter.
JAYHAWK NOTES: KU forward John Crawford made several shots from near the top of the key Monday, prompting reporters to ask why he was moved from the corner he had inhabited for the last two seasons.
"I got promoted, I guess," he said. There seems to be some confusion over the heights of some Jayhawks. Crawford was listed at 6-foot-8 last season and is said to be 6-7 this season. Victor Mitchell, the hefty junior college transfer, is listed at 6-foot-9 but he says that he is 6-foot-10.
"I don't care what they say, I'm 6-4,
five to six," he said. "Because of my size I
look very small."
