Hawks send three gymnasts to finals
A trio of KU gymnasts — Kirk Gardner, Gerald Carley, and Richard Schubert — will represent the Jayhawk gymnastic squad in the NCAA Championships to be held April 2-4 in Philadelphia.
The threesome earned the right to participate in the NCAA finals by placing among the top three finishers in their respective events at the Big Eight meet held March 21 in Manhattan.
In the conference championships the Jayhawks finished third
behind favorite Iowa State and the host Wildcats.
Gardner, an Atchison junior, grabbed a first place in the league meet by capturing the still ring title with a near flawless 9.4 score. Gardner, considered one of the top gymnasts in the country, has been ranked number one in the nation in the still rings and has been tabbed as the man to beat in the national championships.

Carley, a Wichita junior, placed second in the high bar competition with a score of 9.2. Carley went into the meet ranked number one in the Big Eight in the high bar event.
