6 Monday, March 3, 1975 University Daily Kansan 'Hawks capture Big 8 track title By KEN STONE Sports Writer If confident attitudes were measured like earthquakes, the University of Kansas track team's attitude Friday and Saturday night at the Big Eight indoor championships in Kansas City, Mo., would have registered 9.8 on the Richter scale. Kansas won its seventh indoor title in 10 years by swallowing up defending champion and nearest competitor Kansas State University 63-33. At Kemper Arena after the last running event, KU track coach Bob Timmons said his team had as much spirit as any team since he had here and that it had been there. The unity Tumminis referred to was the togetherness of jump, hump and lump jump, hump and mule relay. Friday, Danny Seay tied the Big Eight and KU in record records in the long jump with a leap of 25-11. His brilliant three-jump series also included jumps, including placed second Teammate, and placed second Teammate and KU spiker Waddell Smith took fifth place with a jump of 24-3. Saturday also placed third in the triple jump Saturday and second in the quad record in the pole vault with a 52-38%. Seay mums clearing 6-10 in the high jump when he grazed the bar with the bottoms of his calves while Fosbury flopping. For his efforts, Seyn won the outstanding athlete award for the 47th Big Eight indoor. On Friday night the Jayhawks recorded three of the top four times in the 600 and the two top times in the 440. In the Saturday night finals, KU took first, second and fourth in the 600, and first and second in the 440.

Randy Benson, who moved from fourth to second in the last 50 yards, was disappointed in but said he was happy to see KU take first and second. Quarter mile champion Lewis said after a game when he was winning. I knew what I was doing, I felt good.
