praise when he wins, but you know what he gets when he loses. That's what happened to Mike and Kelly," Huff said. "Kevin didn't have any of that bad experience. He's fresh. He's got a long way to go, but then he's just a freshman."
For most of the first half, Verdugo threw mostly screen passes. It wasn't until the second half that he was allowed to test the accuracy of his arm. In the third quarter, Verdugo completed a pass to sophomore wide receiver Quintin Smith for 20 yards. He also picked up 12 yards on defense, and junior Rick Darryl Terrell. In the fourth quarter he hit junior wide receiver Willie Vaughn twice, once for 17 yards and then for 15.
"I didn't want to put a freshman in the position where he had to win it or lose it on his arm," Huff said of the early screen pass strategy. "The idea was to take some of the pressure off him and put the burden on some of the other players."
A key play for the Jayhawks came off of a Verdugo fluke. In the third quarter, Verdugo dropped the snap at the KU 48-yard line but acooed it up and ran for 30 yards. His carry was the longest run of the season for the Jayhawks.
Verdugo almost had his victory stolen away from him. Southern Illinois tried to put up a 50-yard field goal attempt that went wide to the left with 15 seconds left in the game.
Baseball team grabs 29-7 victory
"I was thinking we had worked too hard all week for this to happen," Verdugo said. "But I wasn't really bothered by them having the chance to score because I knew we'd come through in the end."

On Thursday, the Kansas baseball team defeated Allen County Community College 29-7 on the strength of seven home runs. Yesterday against Highland Community College, they won by the same score, but they achieved it by different means.
The Jayhawks hit only one home run — a three-run shot by freshman Mike Casidy — but they had 28 hits in the 15-inning game.
"Offensively, we didn't have the life in our bats we've had on other occasions," Kansas coach Dave Bingham said. "Offensively we played pretty well, we just didn't hit the 'home runs.'"
the Jayhawk 'offense. After striking out in the first inning, he had three consecutive hits, including a three-run double in the four-run third inning, and finished with four hits in seven at-bats. He was robbed of a fifth hit in the 14th inning when Highland left fielder Barry Williams made a diving catch on a line drive.
Junior outfielder Steve Dowling led

and I had some good pitches to hit.
Football
The Tucson, Ariz., native batted second in the lineup yesterday, but he has been shuffled up and down the batting order this season.
The Jayhawk pitching has been improving, and it was effective yesterday. Junior Scott Taylor pitched the first four innings, giving up one earned run, and junior Brad Schmitt retired the side in the final inning of the first five-inning segment.
The other two Kansas "starting" pitchers went four innings also. Sophomore Brad Hinkle gave up two runs, both earned, in the second and junior Craig Houkst allowed one earned run in the final segment.
"It got me confident," he said about batting second. "I'm learning to adjust to hitting anywhere in the lineup."
Freshman Danny Lamb closed out the final inning of the second segment without allowing a run, and sophomore Craig Stopel struck out two of the three batters he faced in the scoreless final inning.

touchdowns in his debut
Verdrug completed 14 of 26 passes for 128 yards and threw no interceptions, a big change from the last two home games where quarterbacks Mike Orth and Kelly Donohoe threw three touchdowns. After Saturday's game, everyone seemed pleased with the newcomer's performance.
Though the fans in the stands might not have been so sure, members of the Jayhawk's offense would come up with a downtow to win the game.
"We knew we would get it in the end zone on that last drive," Smith said. "We saw today what it takes to win."
"We had confidence in him," said sophomore wide receiver Quintin Smith. "He's a freshman, but that's not important because he played well. That's all that matters."
Junior tailback Darryl Terrell had heavy duty when it came to handling the ball against the Salukis. The 5-
foot-11, 180-pound Southern Methodist transfer carried the ball 21 times for 66 yards. He also caught six passes for 47 yards Terrell said all the work didn't bother him.
"I didn't get tired in the game," he said. "Coach Roll (Kansas strength coach) works us too hard for that to happen. Catching all those passes was a new experience for me because I didn't do it much at my old school."
While the offense played well, the most exciting offensive play in the first half came from the special teams.
On the first Kansas offensive drive of the game, the Jayhawks appeared to have stalled. Kansas senior Rich Rieith was ready to punt, it appeared, but the Jayhawks were called for a five-yard, delay-of-game penalty in the third quarter to talk with the Kansas coaches, but he didn't return as the punter.
Instead, junior punter John Brehm lined up deep and took the snap. But instead of punting, Brehm threw a
high arching pass down the right sideline toward Jayhawk wide receiver Smith. On the Kansas 3-yard line, Smith and a Southern Illinois defender got tangled up and the ball 'tell to the ground.
Pass interference was called on the Salukis defender, and Kansas had new life at the Southern Illinois 23-vard line.
Sophomore walk-on Louis Klemp later kicked a 36-yard goal field for the Jayhawks' only points of the first half.
"I've never seen anything like it before," said Kansas offensive coordinator Gary Huff.
Despite the successful gadget punt formation play, and good performances by the Kansas offense and defense, the game's outcome came down to a final 50-yard field goal attempt by Southern Illinois kicker John Brda. And when the kickailed wide left, the Jayhawks had their first victory of the season.
KU harriers finish second
The Kansas men's cross country team finished second in the team competition, and Craig Watche placed third in individual competition at Saturday's Cowboy Jamboree at Stillwater, Okla.
Sports Briefs
Traditional power Arkansas won the meet with 23 points. The Jayhawks tallied 89, 10 better than third-place Missouri Baptist.
Watkele finished behind Arkansas' Joe Falcon and Ruben Reina, who tied for first place in 30 minutes, 11.46 seconds. The Kansas junior covered the 10,000-kilometer course in 30:26.57.
Coach Bob Timmons called it the finest race of Watcke's career.
"He was quite a (distance) back and he just kept working his way up." Timmons said. "He ran free
and quick and with a lot of courage. He ran well on the hills and kept moving past people. It was kind of exciting to watch him run."
Kansas rugby team defeats Missouri
The Kansas varsity rugby team beat Missouri 24-9 Saturday in a game at Columbia, Mo. The varsity led 10-3 at halftime, and the Tigers never seriously threatened the lead. Jeff Paxton, Mike Vanderbosch and Scott Riley all scored tries for the Jayhawks.
"our conditioning really paid off for us in the second half," senior Paul King said. "Our forwards dominated the game. We had some younger people playing for us in the first half, and they scored when they had to."
The Jayhawks' senior reserve team fell to Missouri 9-4.
Raiders defeat KC 35-17
The Associated Press
as a number of Raiders picketed in 106-degree heat outside the stadium, Evans, 32, was brilliant in his first NFL game since 1983.
LOS ANGELES — Quarterback Vince Evans, making the most of his chance to get back in the NFL, passed for two touchdowns and ran for another Sunday as the Los Angeles Raiders beat Kansas City 35-17 in a strike game played before 10.708 people at the 92,000-seat Los Angeles Coliseum.
Ironically, the Raiders have had problems at quarterback the last several years. The starter this
season has been unheralded third year pro Rusty Hilger.
Evans threw a 32-yard TD pass to Ethan Horton, one of five Raiders players who crossed the picket line to play, in the third period. None of the five Raiders who crossed the picket line are starters.
Evans completed 10 of his 18 passes for 248 yards and rushed for 63 yards on four carries. He scored his touchdown on a 4-yard bootleg run early in the second quarter.
The Raiders improved their record to 3-0 while the Chiefs fell to 1-2.

"I just ran 21 miles in 2 hours"
That's about how many miles of newsprint Otto Benson runs through the presses every morning in the process of printing the University Daily Kansan. The press starts running at 7 a.m. But by then the Kansan press operators have been at work for over an hour webbing and plating the press and getting ready to produce some 15,000 newspapers.
Once the presses have started rolling, their job has just begun. For two hours they continuously monitor quality, fine
tuning the settings on the press so that the reproduction of type and art in your Kansan is clean, crisp and clear. When things are running smoothly, they have time to read the Kansan during the pressrun. When they aren't, they take it home.
Otto's job may seem like a lot of ink, paper and black hands to you, but it's a trade to him. He cares about his trade. He cares about the Kansas. And most of all, he cares about doing a good job for you.
