Jayhawks rip Red Devils, 29-7

The day before the Kansas baseball team's game with Allen County Community College, Jayhawk catcher Troy Mentzer, who played for Allen County last year, said he wanted to "kill" the Red Devils.
Last evening, he did just that. Mentzer hit home runs to left field in his first two at-bats, leading Kansas 29-7 home victory in a 15-inning game.
Mentzer said Wednesday that he wanted to do especially well against Allen County, since he still knew the police would have a little less fiery after the game.
"I was just happy to play well against anybody," he said. "There was a little added incentive to do well against them."
rage by Kansas, making coach Dave Bingham more optimistic about the Jayhawk offense, which has been spottling.
Mentzer led a seven-home-run bar
"We were a lot better offensively," he said. "It was the first time we've taken some good, aggressive cuts. Tonight we played hungry. I felt that this was our best offensive night by far."
Besides Mentzer, freshmen Mark Prentice, senior Rocky Helm, junior J Patton, junior Jeff Mentel and senior Spencer also home-red for Kansas.
Spencer has been swinging a hot bat lately. After a three-for-three, three-RBI performance Sunday against Barton County Community College, he said, "Every time I go up to the plate, I feel I can hit the ball out of the yard. I just feel really confident."
The confidence must have rubbed off on Bingham, because Spencer was placed in the clean-up spot against Allen County. He responded with a two-run homer and an RBI single, but he said his place in the batting order wasn't important.
"It didn't have an effect on me," Spencer said of batting four. "It doesn't matter to me whether I hit first or eighth. A lot is determined by the situation when you come up — not where you bat in the order."
Kansas' pitching was also effective for the most part. Freshman Darin Harris started the game and gave up a five pitch, which walked one batter and struck out two.
The Jayhawks' next game is scheduled for Sunday against Highland Community College, starting at 1:00 p.m.
Volleyball team to face Shockers
Staff writer
It had been so long since the Kansas volleyball team had won a match that outside hitter Jodi Oelschlanger couldn't remember yesterday who the Jayhawks defeated in their last victory.
By ROBERT WHITMAN
She was too busy looking ahead to Kansas' next opponent, Wichita State. The Jayhawks will play the Shockers at 7:30 tonight in Wichita and try to snap an eight-match losing
streak. Kansas will go to Norman, Okla., tomorrow for a 7:30 p.m. match against Oklahoma.
"I didn't realize that. I knew it had been a long time since we've won, but I didn't know who we beat." Oelschlaer said.
Kansas is 4-10 overall and 8-3 in Big Eight Conference matches. The Jayhawks, the only Big Eight team to have played three conference matches, are firmly in the conference cellar from matches played by Wednesday.
"I just think we have to keep playing. It isn't too late. Two wins this weekend and we would be 6-10 for the title for anything." Oelschlaer said.
The last three KU matches have
gone to five games before the Jayhawks.
NEWARK, N.J. — NBA players joined the list of professional athletes seeking greater freedom in the marketplace when they fitted a suit yesterday challenging the National Basketball Association's draft, salary cap

The class action suit, filed in federal court in Newark, alleges antitrust violations. It names the league and its 23 teams as defendants. The players are seeking a court order that would stop the practices.
"It comes down to free agency," Gerald Krovatin, an attorney for the players, said. "Players want the right to decide who they want to play for . . . and without artificial (salary) restraints."
Estell gets chance with KC
Continued from p. 11
ated pace reminded him of his days at Kansas. He equated the learning process that was going on at Arrowhead to the cramming a college student had to do the night before a test.
The chance to play football was simpler to Estell during his career at Kansas. He set career school records for most pass receptions with 117 and most yards receiving with 1,996. In his senior season, Estell caught 70 passes for 1,109 yards and was named first team All-Big Eight.
Estell will be returning to the Kansas campus this spring semester, not as a football hero but as a parttime college student. He has only a half-semester load of classes left to complete his degree in personnel administration.
The 6-foot-2, 210-pound Estell would have been in school this semester, but he lasted until the final cut of the Indianapolis Colts training camp. Just a few more days and he would have been on the picket lines with striking players instead of crossing them.
Estell said he could understand both sides of the NFL strike.
"I if had been on the team before, I would have been striking with them," Estell said. "I wouldn't gone for some of the violence and physical stuff that has gone on. That's not the way to settle this thing."
With his new team, though, Estell has been reunited with former Kansas teammate Colter, who played cornerback for the Jayhawks in the 1811 and 1882 seasons. Estell said it brought back memories for him of the season he played against Colter in practice. He said he hadn't seen Colter for two years.
Estell hasn't seen any of the striking Chiefs players crossing the picket line. He attributed the lack of strikebreakers to the class of the organization. He said he was impressed with the way the team had stuck together so far
"It was really nice to look across the locker room the first day and see an old teammate," he said. "It was great to see him again."
Some players on other teams, though, have returned to their teams. Running backs Tony Dorsett of Dallas and Tony Collins of New England are two of several players who
rejoined their teams yesterday. Estell said the reasons for their return were somewhat like the reasons he had for joining the team.
"Some of them know that they might be at the end of their careers and they don't want to miss any playing time," he said. "It's a shot for me to show people what I can do, so I have to protect my future."
The near future for Estell holds no promises, just opportunities. He said
that made every practice and every game important for him. The first chance to show himself in an NFL regular-season game comes Sunday in Los Angeles against the Raiders; whether he is ready or not.
"Sure, it's been tough getting prepared in this short a time," he said; "Honest to God, thouch, I think I'll do well. Even if it doesn't work out, it won't be the end of my dream. I won't give it up that easy."
Richard Estell runs through a practice drill as a defensive back. Estell and the rest of the Kansas City Chiefs offensive team worked through drills yesterday at Arrowhead Stadium.
