2B Monday, August 22, 1994 SPORTS UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Senior men's golfers will be missed By Jenni Carlson Kansan sportswriter Some say a little friendly competition is good for the body. Whether that's true or not, the men's golf team is bound to get its dose this year. Gone are five of the top eight players on last year's squad, which placed second at the Big Eight Championships behind top-ranked Oklahoma State. "We gave them a run for it," Coach Ross Randall said. Two of the seniors on last year's squad, Matt Gogel and John Hess, have plans to enter the professional ranks. Their presence and low scores for the team will be missed, Randall said. Because several returning players participated in leagues during the summer, the blow of losing Gogel and Hess might be softened. Senior Tyler Shelton won the Kansas Match play and the Missouri Amateur Championship. Shelton was a semifinalist in the Kansas State Amateur Championship and posted the lowest score of any amateur in the Kansas Open. Most recently, he qualified for the United States Amateur Open, which will be held in Jacksonville. Fla. "Everybody on the team still has tournament experience, just not college experience." Sims said. Several returning players are expected to step up and fill the void left by last year's graduated seniors. Junior Dan Rooney showed his ability to win this summer as he claimed titles at events in Arkansas and Texas. ning of the summer," Randall said. Adding to Rooney's experience are fellow juniors Jason Seeman and Alan Stearns. "He played quite well at the begin- Two faces who are not new to collegiate competition but new to Kansas are sophomore transfer Kit Grove and junior transfer Slade Adams. Grove is transferring from New Mexico State, and Adams is coming from Texas Christian University. With a wealth of upperclassmen, freshman Chris Thompson, Ryan Zug and Andy Bengston may not see much tournament action. Randall said. "We're really a lot deeper this year," he said. "I think the upperclassmen are going to play a lot." The fall will be a time of shuffling positions and competing for the final spots on the travel squad. "There's really going to be a lot of competition at three, four, and five," he said. The coming of the fall semester means a lot of work for the members of the Kansas rowing team. By Kent Hohfeld Kansan sportswriter Crew prepares for a new season It also means trying to elevate awareness of a club that depends on a constant infusion of new rowers for success. "During this time of the year, we really try to increase membership in the club," said Bryan Tylander, president of the Kansas rowing club. Tylander said most rowers started in college with little or no experience with the sport. New rowers begin on the novice team where they learn the mechanics and intricacies of the sport. "We're constantly having to replace people who don't return either for financial reasons or graduation," Tylander said. "We also don't get a lot of people with experience coming out of high school so we have to train rowers." Tylander said it took about two years for new rowers to become proficient in the sport. The uncertainty associated with the women's team being elevated to varsity status next fall might hurt turnover for the women's squad, he said. The task of finding a coach and upgrading equipment and facilities for the varsity team will begin early next year. Poyas said that she thought those on the squad this season would be considered for the varsity squad next season. This season's club will be trying to improve on last year when the men's lightweight four-member team won the Midwestern Championships. The women's lightweight four-member team finished fourth at the National Collegiate Championships. "We've been told that it won't affect this season at all." Lara Poyas, women's captain, said. "We won't receive any assistance from the athletic department until next year." Fifth year head Coach Rob Catloth said the success of this year's team would be dependent on who returned for the team because club sports like crew did not have the stability that varsity sports had. He said about 50 to 60 people usually went out for the men's team and about 100 women usually tried out.
