880, 2-mile relays run on west coast
Kansas' record-holding 880 and two-mile relay teams will be running in fast company when they go to Fresno, Calif., to compete in the West Coast Relays Saturday night.
Coach Bob Timmons said the Jayhawk two-mile team will be composed of Roger Kathol, Mark Ferrell, Gene McClain and Jim Ryun. Kathol won the spot in last Saturday's dual with Southern Illinois when he finished in a virtual dead heat with teammate Julio Meade for first place in the half-mile. Both were timed in 1:54 flat.
Kathol was contesting Paul Mattingly and Curt Grindal for the berth. Meade, a member of the 880 relay team, was in the race for overdistance work.
Along with Meade in the 880 relay at Fresno will be John Jackson, Jim Hatcher and Ben Olison. The Jayhawks won this relay at
Texas and Kansas in 1:24.1 and 1:24 flat and finished second at Drake with a school record of 1:23.9.
KU won the two-mile at Drake in the school record time of 7:21.8 with Grindal (1:52.7), Ferrell (1:50.2), McClain (1:50.7) and Ryun (1:48.2) in the lineup.
The Jayhawks' biggest competition in the two-mile at Fresno figures to come from Villanova, anchored by Dave Patrick, which has matched Kansas' 7:21.8 for the best time in the nation this spring. Other strong two-mile teams entered at Fresno are Brigham Young and New Mexico.
San Jose State, which last year set the world record of 1:22.1 for the 880-yard relay, looks to be the Jayhawks' top rival in that race, along with New Mexico and possibly Southern California. San Jose leads the nation in the 880 relay this season at 1:23.1.
Two teams want 'machine'
Two professional basketball teams are vying for the services of Rodger Bohnenstiehl, 6-6 KU forward-center. Money will determine which one gets him.
Bohnenstiehl, called "The Machine" by teammates and fans because of his uncanny shooting accuracy, particularly with a turnaround jump shot, was a 6th round draft choice of the Pittsburgh Pipers of the American Basketball Association, Monday.
The New York Knickerbockers selected Bohnenstiehl Wednesday in the 9th round of the National Basketball Association draft.
"I was pleased and surprised to be chosen by the Knicks," said
Bohnenstiehl, who has not yet talked contract terms with either team.
The Collinsville, Ill., senior said he has no preference as to which team he'd like to play for, but that he'll go with the one that offers the most money.
KU head football coach Pepper Rodgers played quarterback at Georgia Tech from 1951 to 1953. In his final college game, he was named outstanding player in the Sugar Bowl, after sparking his team to a 42-19 rout of West Virginia.
