KU cross country teams finish second
By MIKE CONSIDINE Staff writer
The KU men's and women's cross country teams both finished second in Saturday's Jayhawk Invitational.
Texas-Arlington won the men's title with 61 points, three points ahead of Kansas. Emporia State claimed three of the first four places and won the women's meet with 36 points Kansas, behind freshman McLean McLean's second place finish, tied Texas-Arlington for second with 54.
With the right line-up, the men could have won a third consecutive championship. The Jayhawks' surplus of runners became a drawback
when four teammates, running unattached, topped sophomore Matt Bell's 24th place finish (33:58.68).
“It’s going to take more time to get our team in a position where we know what they’re going to do in a given meet,” coach Bob Tinmons said.
Ineligible freshman Andy Pritchard (33:06.19) and junior Jon Koslin (33:12.98) would have finished 17th and 18th if their scores had counted. Either score would have kept the streak intact.
Junior Craig Watke placed 6th (31.46.88) and sophomore Steve Heferan was 6th (31.51.13) for the Jawhaws.
"We weren't fresh and ready, yet
you don't want to be now," Heferian said. "We're training hard to get in pretty good condition at the end of the season."
Timmons noticed a difference from the team he left to go on a two-week cruise. "I'm really pleased to see the progress they've made." Timmons
Ben Melly, Texas-Arlington senior won the men's race in 31:17.44. The women's winner, in a five-kilometer course, was Emporia State's senior Cindy Blakely (18:11), who began her career at KU.
MacLean (18:26) led until the final three-quarters of a mile Her strategy was to build an insurmountable early lead.
"That girl (Blakely) ran a smart race," MacLean said. "She let me lead up to the hill. I just couldn't concentrate enough to hold on."
Women's coach Cliff Rovelto was impressed by MacLean's performance.
Before the race, Rovelo said he hoped to place four runners in the top 20. Five Jayhawks made it: MacLean, senior Trisha Mangan placed 6th (19:04), sophomore Kelly Koffey was 13th (19:27), freshman Tony Gundy was 16th (19:39), and freshman Tina Saulsbury was 19th (19:47).
Men's soccer club goes one-and-no for weekend

The climax of a weekend of competition for the men's soccer club lacked only one element yesterday — an onepoint.
The University of Nebraska-Lincoln failed to show up for its game against Kansas, which was scheduled for 2 p.m. at Memorial Stadium.
The weekend was not completely lost, though. Saturday, the Jayhawks defeated the University of Nebraska-Omaha, 1-0, evening their record at 1-1.
"The frustrating thing is that we
have a full schedule, and there's lots of teams that want to play us." KU coach Glen Shirtliffe said. "The fans get grunted when they come out here because they're expecting to see a game."
Shirtlife added that the forfeit was especially frustrating because many parents of team members were in town this weekend in conjunction with the University's Parents' Day activities.
Shriftlife said he had talked to Nebraska—Lincoln the week before to confirm the game. "They said they would be here today (Sunday)," he would be here today (Sunday)," he
said. "That's the last time I'm going to schedule them for a while."
Shirtliffe said it was not the first time the Cornhuskers had failed to show up for a scheduled game. He said that about a year and a half ago, KU traveled to Lincoln, only to find the Orlando club had canceled the
But the Jayhawks did get in a game Saturday at Shenk Complex, 23rd and Iowa streets, against Nebraska-Omaha.
"We should have had five or six goals, at least," Shirtliffe said.
Kansas finally scored with about five minutes left in the game. Defender Marc Boussaguet stole the ball from a Maverick defender, dribbed around two other defenders and hit a low shot past the Nebraska-Omaha goalie.
When Nebraska didn't show up, Shirtliffe called for a intrasquad scrimmage.
"We had the refs already paid for, so we made them earn it," Shirtliffe said.
Shirtlift put the first-team forwards and midfielders, plus the second-team defenders, against the second-team forwards and midfielders.

The Kansas State Invitational women's tennis tournament turned into an intra-squad match for Kansas Friday and Saturday at Manhattan.

and into the semi-finals.
Instead of having them play each other at Manhattan, Coach Scott Permanel decided to have the team come home and play the tournament out here this week to see how well he played on hard, and Jonsson will play Berglund, with the winners playing for the championship.
The Jayhawks' doubles teams also cruised through the tournament. The teams of Jonsson and Treps and Hibbard and Mindy Melae made it to the finals, which will also be played here this week.
