Defending Big 12 champion wins Nebraska Invitational
By Doug Pacey sports@kansan.com Kansan sportwriter
The Kansas men's golf team took a step in the right direction yesterday to repeat as Big 12 Conference champions.
The Jayhawks placed three golfers in the top 10 and set two school records at Fairway Golf Club in Lincoln, Neb., on route to winning the Nebraska Invitational yesterday.
Kansas set a school record for margin-of-victory with a 35-stroke win. The Jayhawks finished the tournament with 853 strokes to Missouri's 888.
The final round yielded another school record for the men. They shot a record-low 272,12 under par, but all to seal the win.
"We played really well today on a very difficult course," said Kansas coach Ross Randall. "Considering the difficulty of
All-American senior Ryan Vermeer led all golfers with a score of 202, 11-under par. The tournament was a homecoming for the Nebraska native.
Junior Andy Stewart finished nine strokes behind Vermeer to take second place, and junior Conrad Roberts shot 219 to place sixth.
Senior Brad Davis answered all questions about whether he would be able to play golf after incurring a heel and back injury after falling from an apartment balcony last spring. He finished tied for 13th after shooting 221.
The women's golf team placed 11th on the Big 12 Fall Preview, shooting 960. Sarah Mahoney led the women with an overall score of 228 to tie for eighth place.

"They're definitely not a team to overlook," said senior middle blocker Anne Kreimer. "They've improved a lot, so it should be a good match."
Team ready for challenges ahead
One of the Jayhawks' primary goals heading into the match is simple — cut down on service errors. Kansas had a combined 56 of them during the three matches last weekend, but fixing the problem is easier said than done.
"That's something we have a concern about, but if we emphasize it too much it becomes more mental than it does physical." Bechard said.
One problem the Jayhawks didn't have during the weekend was smashing a handful of schoolrooms all of
recruits, all of which were broken during the loss to Auburn. Junior outside hitter Amy Myatt's 30 kills broke the
school's all-time record during a four-game match. Sophomore setter Molly LaMere's 86 assists ranks first all-time in Kansas history and fifth all-time in NCAA history for a four-game match. Kansas 102 team kills and 90 assists also were both school records.
Injury report:
Freshman setter Amy Billings, who broke the patella in her right knee in August, may be in uniform sometime in October. Bechard said.
■ Junior outside hitter Nancy Bell broke the big toe on her left foot in Kansas' win against Chicago State Friday, but said she would be ready to go tonight against Wichita State.
- Kreimer is still recovering from a torn anterior cruciate ligament she suffered during the teams' spring drills. The senior played in all of the team's matches in the Jayhawk 'Classic, and she is expected to play tonight.
