Young team dives into new year
Squad members prepare for first meet of season
By Matt Woodruff
Kansan sportswriter
As they open the season with one of their youngest teams in recent years, members of the women's diving team hope to overcome their lack of experience with enthusiasm and hard work.
Of the six divers, there are no seniors and Kenzie Zeller will be the sole junior.
The rest of the team consists of sophomores Deanna Beiswanger and Christian Paschall and freshmen Danielle Bernier, Kelly Norton and Kerri Pribyl.
Paschall, who already has one
year of NCAA competition under her belt, is optimistic that the team won't suffer from lack of experience.
"We definitely have some pretty big shoes to fill with some of the divers that left last year," Paschall said, referring to the loss of
Michelle Rojohn and Amy Hathaway. "But the freshmen coming in are really talented, and I think they're going to be ready."
Kansas diving coach Don Fearon will be

counting on Zeller for leadership, Beiswanger and Paschall for scoring, and the freshmen to add depth and give the team a solid future.
how the team had been performing in practice this week.
Fearon said he was excited about
"I've been really pleased with the practices. We're really starting to get the bigger dives," Fearon said. "This week, three girls all learned a big twister off of the high boards. Those are going to be our competitive dives."
"I think that they're really providing a catalyst for us," he said.
Christian Paschall
Fearon has been emphasizing fundamentals with the young team.
"He's really been pounding those into us because that's the only way that we can make our harder dives
better." Paschall said.
The Crimson and Blue intrasquad meet scheduled for Oct. 11 at the Robinson Natatorium will be a good way of seeing where everyone is and identifying what the team needs to work on, Fearon said.
Paschall said that this meet was important for all of the divers, not just the freshmen.
"We'll try to do a list of dives and see how well they go," he said. "It's kind of a barometer of where we're at with our big dives, and if we're not ready to use them, then we'll keep working on those and use some kind of a fallback dive."
"It provides a pretty good estimation of where everyone is," she said. "Obviously, there is pressure on the freshmen because it's their first meet, but there's also pressure on the upperclassmen because it's the first time we've competed this year."
Track athletes find fish, fun and friendship at Potter Lake

Track athletes Marc Romito (left) and Chip Malmstrom display a catch from Potter Lake. The pair fish together once or twice a week. "The bass usually bite on about anything out here," Malmstrom said yesterday.
"It's a good way to relax before practice starts," Malmstrom said. "Let the good vibes flow in."
When Kansas track and field athletes Marc Romito and Chip Malmstrom have time between classes and track practice, they often walk to Potter Lake and throw their spinner baits into the water.
Student athletes have many ways of relieving stress. Malmstrom and Romito have found fishing at Potter Lake to be their pool of serenity.
Malmstrom, sophomore multievent performer, said he enjoyed being outdoors.
"We're able to be out here and have some fun," Malmstrom said.
There's also a friendly competition between the teammates.
Because Potter Lake is small, Malmstrom and Romito have rules when they fish.
Whoever catches the most fish in total weight wins that day.
"It's more of a pride thing," said Romit, junior pole vaulter.
There is no camping on the other person's spot, and if one gets a hit on his line, the other person can't cast in that area. They often catch largemouth bass.
Last year Romito and Malmstrom were two of the top pole vaulters on the KU track team. Romito was a Phillips 66 Academic All-Big Eight selection and finished fourth at the Big Eight Conference Outdoor Championships. Malmstrom was the Minnesota state high school record holder in the pole vault and also was state champion in the pole
vault and 4x100-meter relays as a junior.
This season Malmstrom will participate in the pentathlon during the indoor season and the decathlon in the outdoor season. Romito will focus on the pole vault.
Romito and Malmstrom discovered that they both liked to fish two years ago when Malmstrom visited Kansas.
Romito, a freshman at the time,
had returned recently from camping at Clinton Lake and had his fishing pole in the back of his car. Because Malmstrom was from the Land of 10,000 Lakes, he asked Romito where he fished.
Romito pointed out Potter Lake.
"I just laughed at him because I was used to such big lakes in Minnesota," Malmstrom said. "We came here a couple times and caught fish—I was a believer!"
Cowboys have lost their depth
By DAVE GOLDBERG AP sportswriter

One of the class acts in the Dallas locker room put it best after the Cowboys revived their season against the Eagles.
"You beat us up one week, then you tell us the next week we're going to the Super Bowl," Emmitt Smith told the assembled media throng. "If we lose our next game, you'll bury us again."
This writer's plea: Guilty.
It's easy to beat up on America's Team. Everyone who doesn't love the Cowboys hates them, a condition stoked by the presence at the top of Jerry Jones and Barry Switzer.
To put it simply, this is where the Cowboys stand: They probably will win the NFC East — they get Michael Irvin back for their next game, and there's really no one to challenge them.
But the Cowboys remain a long shot to win their fourth Super Bowl in five years, simply because what the nation saw on Monday night is what the Cowboys are — a team that will have to scrape and claw for many of its victories.
What has happened to the Cowboys? The easiest answer is that they have lost their depth.
Smith is averaging just 3.5 yards a carry, exactly a yard less than his careeraverage.
Yes, he is hurt, but he also is playing behind an offensive line that suddenly is showing its age — Ray Donaldson is 37, Mark Tuinei is 36 and Nate Newton is 35. Behind them, there's no one
— the Dallas hierarchy chuckled when Ron Stone got $10 million during five years from the Giants, but Stone was miles ahead of any of this year's offensive line backups.
Dallas' 1996 season probably will not end with the end of the regular season. It probably won't end at the Superdome in New Orleans on Jan. 26. It will end, most likely, on the frozen tundra of Lambeau Field in Green Bay or the mud flats of the former Candlestick Park in San Francisco.
