4B Friday, September 22,1995 UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Freshmen plunge into deeper water Swimmers prepare for new challenges in collegiate meets By Bill Kenealy Kansan sportswriter Two Kansas freshman swimmers are honing practice will nav off. Brant People, Emporia freshman, first hit the water at age seven. He has been a swimmer ever since. In high school, Peoples established himself as a spinter, excelling in the 50-yard and 100- yard freestyle. People realizes that exceiling at the collegiate level will not come as easily. "It has been a little rough, but I'm ready for it," he said. "This is the first time I have practiced with a bunch of people of the same age and same ability as me. It makes workouts a lot better." In addition to more challenging workouts, Peoples is learning to swim in new events. All swimmers are required to compete in three different events, so Peoples will compete in the 200-yard freestyle as well. This is the first time I have practiced with a bunch of people of the same age and same ability as "I'm total sprint," he said. "I have no stamina, but that's one of those things we are working on. Hopefully, I can keep on building it up." Peoples' endurance was put to the test Saturday at the Open Water Invitational at Lone Star Lake. It takes about an hour to swim the '3.2-mile course. me." "I thought it was never going to end," he said. "Over an hour straight of swimming, and I couldn't even see where I was going without lifting my head." With the Lone Star invitational finished, Peoples has his sights set on the season. He said he would continue to improve next month. before the big meets start. Peoples also has high expectations in the classroom. Although he has not chosen a major, he is considering pre-medicine. Mixing such a course load with daily workouts is a daunting proposition for Peoples. Peoples hopes to finish near the top in the Big Eight Conference in his events this season. If all goes well, he would like to compete in the NCAA Championships as well. "This season is a lot longer. We have started really fast," he said, and he hopes to be in good shape Brant Peoples Kansas freshman freestyler One of Peoples' new teammates is "It's kind of surprising, how well everyone is fitting in. Everybody is getting along real well," he said. One area of considerably less con- nstation for him is his rela- tionship with new teammates. Sarah Stauffer, Seattle freshman. StauFFER, too, is adjusting her to well new surroundings. "I really like it here a lot," she said. "It's so different from Seattle, sizewise and stuff, but I love it." Like Peoples, Stauffer is a sprinter and had her first taste of competitive distance swimming at Lone Star Lake. liked it. It was a big change," she said. "I had never done anything like that before, so it was a big challenge." Stauffer has benefited from the increased competition she faces in practice. Her teammates' speed makes her push harder than she did in high school, where she was on a small team coached by her father. "It has been a good adjustment. It's been exciting," she said. "It's really different. I've never had any coaches other than my dad, let alone four." When the season starts, Stauffer will compete in the 50-yard and 100-yard freestyle and the 100-yard breaststroke. "In the breaststroke I'm still working on dropping time," she said. "I've always been a breast stroker, but it has been my back event. It has been coming along slightly for the last couple of years, and here I hope it comes around a lot." Today's Birthday (Sept. 22): You are lucky this year. Make your wish list now. Buy something that improves your self-esteem in October. Finish up the old, and launch a new project in November. A change at home in December could bring you luck. Go back to an earlier method in January and solve a worrisome problem. Heed an old partner's cautionary advice in March. Travel in May. A change could further career goals in June. Spend July with best friends. Horoscopes By Linda C. Black Aries (March 21-April 19): This could be an intense day. Go over your work carefully several times before turning it in. Even the smallest error could cause unwelcome consequences. Don't assume you know what your true love is thinking, either. You may have misunderstood a message. Taurus (April 20-May 20): This is a fabulous day. Push forward with confidence in business and in romance. Although your best friend still may be confused, your instincts should be right on target. Again, you'll be most successful if you stick with what you know that works. Cancer (June 22-July 22): You should have an increased ability to remember what you learn today. Take advantage of the opportunity by working with someone who has the skills you want. For you, there's nothing as effective as on-the-job training. Be patient with a ditzy roommate tonight. Gemini (May 21-June 21): There could be confusion in your house today. To make it easier on yourself, let your roommate lead the way. Although you can see the big picture, the other person can produce the intended results. Romance should also go well if you do what you're told. Leo (July 23-Aug. 22): This is a good day for you to go shopping. You should be able to remember a long list of items and where you saw them at the lowest prices. You also may be able to make money by recycling your leftovers; consult a person who does that for a living. Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): This is a fabulous day for you! The sun and moon are both in your sign, and you should be able to leap tall buildings in a single bound. You will work faster and smarter, so ask for a raise! Then go out and get yourself something nice that you have been wanting. Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 23): Pay attention so you can do the job perfectly. A bureaucrat will find every little mistake that you make if you don't find them first! Don't believe a rumor; go straight to the source. What you heard may have been taken out of context. Scorpio (Oct. 24-Nov. 21): Network with friends and business associates to solve a riddle today. A beautiful but impractical person is your most likely source of information. Ask, and you will receive. Don't do anything you don't want to see on the front page of tomorrow's papers, though. Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): There will be an inspection or a test of some sort today, and those who flunk could face unpleasant consequences. You had ample warning, so don't try to talk your way out of it. This is a good learning experience, so you might as well enjoy it. Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You are very lucky today in everything but love. You'll do OK there, too, if you go along with your sweetheart's erratic whims. He or she may change directions several times before deciding, so be patient. In business, however, the path to success should be clear. Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): It is time to pay the piper and everybody else. Unfortunately, there may not be quite enough to go around. This is a marvelous day to get your financial affairs in order. Consult an expert if necessary. You cannot be expected to know everything, but you are learning. Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20): Stop resisting a partner's advice. Today, you will do best if you do just the opposite. Hire someone to help you get organized, then do what you are told. You could turn a dream you have had for years into solid, tangible reality. It could turn out better than you imagined! Note: Horoscopes have no basis in scientific fact and should be read for entertainment only. "NO COUPON SPECIALS"EVERYDAY TWO-FERS PRIMETIME PARTY.
