10 records broken in juco division
Sports Writer
Bv BRETT CONLEY
Golden Valley, Minn., athletes set six meet and three national records as a total of 10 meet records were broken yesterday in Kansas. The Kansas Reyals at Haskell Stadium.
The three national records set by Golden Valley came in the women's $400-yard relay, the women's 100-meter hurdles and the women's 200-meter dash.
Delene Hawkins, Terrie Snoody, Kim Watts and Joan Marin combined in the 440-yard relay to post a 49.09 clocking that beat the record of 49.46.
Hawkins took part in her second national record of the day as she won the 100-meter hurdle in 15.1 seconds, smashing the old record of 15.4 seconds.
Watts got in on the record setting for a second and third time when she won the 200-meter dash in 25.18, which snapped the old record of 26.34. Her record was in 25.12. Her heat met the old mark of 12.4.
GOLDEN VALLEY's two more marks were in the high jump, where Dave Trost scored 6-11-4 in the men's finals and Kim Ganzer went 5-4 in the women's finals.
Trost's jump broke the record of 64 which he held with two other people, and Ganzer's jump was four inches higher than the old woman's mark.
The four other meet records came in the men's triple jump and spring medley relay and the women's 400-meter hurdles and two-mile relay.
Gerald McNair of Forest Park, Mo., won the triple jump easily with a lap of 48-7. His nearest competitor was over two feet behind him and finished finishes beat or tied the old record of 48.
THE JACKSON, MICH., spring medley relay team of Andre Lawson, Mark Brown, Ricardo Hawkins and Dana Houston nipped Cloud County as its time of 3:26.1 lowered the old record of 3:26.6. Cloud County's 3:26.2 also was under the old mark.
Debbie Sobakta of Dodge City combined for two meet records as she turned in a time of 1.07 l. in the women's 400-meter hurdles to beat the record by half a second and also ran a leg on Dodge City's victorious two-mile relay team.
Other members of Dodge City's two-mile relay were Jamet Wilson, Glenda Stewart, and Juanita Neff. Their time of 9:34:7 beat the old mark by nearly 23 seconds.
Golden Valley coach Slev Legreb said he was surprised by his team's performance.
Also, matters were not helped, Legreb said, when his team did not arrive in Lawrence until 5 a.m. yesterday because of car trouble.
LEGREB SAID that it was only the third outdoor meet of the season for Golden Valley and that at last week's meet in Minnesota, that was still snow on the infield.
"I was somewhat surprised with our 440- yard relay because it is an early meet for us," Legreb said, "but I don't think they are close to their peak.
"And Trot only started jumping at the end of March because he was playing basketball. I was hoping he was going to clear seven feet. If he would have been at the stadium and had a better runway, I have no doubt he would have cleared seven feet."

Howlett named assistant
By BARBARA JENSEN
Staff Reporter
Phyll Hilsay was named as an assistant athletic director for KU's men's athletics this morning by Bob Marcum, men's athletic director.
Howlett, an assistant athletic director at Drake University, will replace Jerry Waugh, who resigned March 15.
Howlett will serve as an assistant athletic director for men's and women's athletics after KU's athletic departments merge July 1. Marcus will remain
athletic director, and Marian Washington, KU's women's athletic director, will be associate director.
Howlett's responsibilities will include the supervision of non-revenue producing sports, the spirit squirt, compliance with federal regulations, including NCAA and AIAW rules, and the athletic awards program. She will also serve on University committees that affect KU's athletic program.
Bayless wins decathlon by 182-point margin
Howlett said she would move to Lawrence sometime in June.
Although the junior college competition at Haskell Junior College dominated the second day of the Kansas Relays, there was little day of activity in Memorial Stadium.
Bob Bayless of Oklahoma Christian captured the Jim Bausch decathlon, turning a 63-point lead after Wednesday's first five rounds. Bayless, who won the only time during the two-day test that Bayless, who is coached by former U.S. basketball star Jerry Barbieri, was after the initial event, the 100-meter race.
He won the long jump and high jump on Wednesday and the 110-meter hurdles yesterday to finish only his third decathlon with 7,191 points, a personal record.
"My goal was to score 7,000 points and I reached it," Bayless said.
KUS TWO contestants went in opposite directions on the final day. Grant Overstake, who was fourth after Wednesday, slipped to fifth with 6.623 points, and Mark
Graham, who was seventh, advanced to sixth with a personal best of 6,489.
Graham, 'who was competing in his second decathlon, won the 400-meters Wednesday and the 1,500 yesterday. He beat Michael Kovac in the 1,500 by almost four seconds.
In the only women's event of the day.
"It was a good feeling to win it (1,500) after competing like the crap the whole day." Graham said. "I was so pissed off that I had to call the cellar and make myself respectable."
In the other finals, Joseph Nzau of Wyoming won the Billy Mills 10,000-meter run in 29.57.5, and teammate John Kamau finished second in 30.39.7.
DAVID MCCALLEY of the Kansas City Northstarists won the 5,000-meter walk, a new event to the Rebays, in 22.53.3. Second-place Jerry Young of the St. Louis Track Club finished more than two minutes later at 24.57.9.
Corral Urish, former Kansas State star who competed unattached, won the 5,000-meter run in 17:14.3.6 The KU athletes placed in the top 10 with Karen Fitz leaving the way for Tara finish. Her 17.47.1 clocking was 12 second faster than her fourth-place time last year.
Maureen Finholm took eighth and Jane Brock snapped 10th.
Kansas won the faculty invitational distance medley for the first time since 1976, beating two K-State squads and a team from Kansas Wesleyan. KU covered the two-and-one-half-mile course in 12:09.5 and won by a 1:19 margin.
In the preliminaries of the intramural 440- yard relay, seven fraternity teams and one residence hall team qualified for tomorrow's finals. Ellsworth Hall won the first heat in 44.35 and Phi Gamma Delta captured the second heat in 46.15. The intramural record 44.28 was set by the Silver Streaks in 1977.

Errors plague teams in softball double-header
Sports Writer
Kansas and Nebraska played giveaway games last night at Holeo Sports Complex in women's softball action. The two teams play for the title in KU's home opening double-b header
The result was a 3-1 KU victory in the opener and a 4-12 Nebraska decision in the second.
The Jayhaws committed seven miscues in the second game to hand the Cornhuskers their victory. Nebraska was held to just eight points at just the right time to fuel KU's attack.
With a 1- lead in the opener, KU's Rose Rader stroked a single in the bottom of the second to send Parm Clark across the plate. Rader quickly tried to steal second and
Husker Laura Lowe's throw had her by a step. But Nebraska's shortstop, Linda McCrea, dropped the throw for what would have been the inning's third out.
KELLY PHIPS TOOK advantage of the error by sending a line shot into left field to hit the ball.
That was all KU pitcher Sibley Sinclair needed to wrap up her 15th victory against six losses. She went the distance, giving up just three hits and striking out five. The only walk she gave up got her in trouble in the first half. Then she jam and yielded only one run in the inning.
Nebraska's No. 8 batter, Urizzly Umsch,
opened the sixth by drawing the walk.
Sinclair had retired the past 11 batters.
Ryan Bauer hit 24 and scored a ground out,
and scored on a single by Kris
Hermanson, who advanced to second on the throw to the plate.
Sinclair retired the side when shortstop Phipps dug Shelly Scott's hit out of the hole between two third base and beat her by a half-step.
"I WAS RELYING on the defense, which was great," Sinclair said. "When I get in training, I want to be a better player."
But in the second game, the only one who could rely on KU's defense was Nebraska, which saw the Hawks drop fly balls, throw the wrong base and forget to cover the bases.
"We made some really bad mistakes early," KU head coach Bob Stancilift said, "and that got us down. Then everything kept getting worse."
Going from bad to worse for KU was
rightfielder Shelly Fox, who let a dyeing line drive get past her in the second. Two runs were scored on the play. In the fifth and sixth innings, KU had a total of four errors which led to three runs in the fifth and six in the sixth.
THE PROBLEMS in the fifth arose when Scott dropped a bund in front of the plate with runners on first and second and no outs. The first baseman and catcher charged but pitcher LaAnn Stanwix fielded the ball, looked to third and didn't have a play. Stanwix also looked to first but no one was there to catch a throw.
A saecifery two and two-run single made it
and put the game away for Nebraska.
Said.
KU is 23-10 and Nebraska is 25-16.
Sprinter wants to leave injuries behind for Relays
By GENE MYERS
Sports Writer
There was never any doubt in Kevin Newell's mind.
"Knew it right away," he said. "I have a history of pulled muscles and it was like somebody reached out at my leg and started grabbing the muscles out of it.
His quivering thigh and throbbing muscles told their own story.
That incident occurred Feb. 23 at the Big Eight Conference Indoor Track Championships but it was hardly an isolated incident in a series of near-misses. This was just one in a series of injuries and bizarre injuries that have fragmented the promising career of the senior sprinter.
He has suffered hamburger pulses often enough to know what one is, and barely 60 feet into the 440-yard dash, Newell knew all too well that he had one.
"Right then I saw it all go away. All my tits gone. I took it harder than any thunder."
Newell's newbies of doubling in the 490 and 600 dashed, but, to a large extent, so were KU's chances of capturing its third straight indoor title.
WHEN HE HASN'T been sideline, Newell has been one of the conference's elite, earning All-American honors three times on KU relay teams. But the past two seasons have brought little more than disappointments and injuries.
"I KNEW I was going to do it in both the 60 and the quarter," said Newell, who had recorded the best electronically-clocked times on Saturday for the 10-20 to 20 points for us. Instead, I only got one
In the Big Eight Indoor, not only were
Without Newell for KU in the 40, Missouri's Dale Udo, the defending champ, and Dan Fortune finished third and fourth for 10 team points.
Despite the latest setback, the 6-10, 155-pound spinner from Chicago hasn't had his confidence and optimism, and hopes to hit stride for the Kansas Relays, and then the conference and national meet. The Relays end on Wednesday and continue through tomorrow.
Missouri defeated KU by seven and one-half points, even though the Tigers won only three events to KU's first five-places. Missouri won with 91 points.
"I felt bad we didn't win and it embarrassed me."
"It's not going to put me back too far," Newell said. "I'm in good shape and as long as I can stay healthy I'm capable of some great things.
AS FOR the Relials, Newell probably will be in the 440 and 880-yard relays and the invitational 100-meter dash. In the 100, he'll be up against Texas' standout drop Johnny Lamm "Jones" and Clifford KUW, KU's winner from 1975 to 1978, who is Newell's sold rival.
"I don't think he was overshadowed by Clifford," Newell said. "In fact, I consider him my best friend and I learned a lot from him. But after my sophomore year, I thought I was competitive with him—I beat him a lot in practice."
"I want to break the school record in the
100-meter and run some good 200c. I want to win the 100 at the conference and be up at it.
"I could have accomplished just as much as Clifford, but I just had injuries and he didn't. I guess it's just our makeup. I'm stocky and susceptible to muscle pulls, and he's slender with no muscles to pull, anyway."
'It seemed like whenever we'd get in a meet, though, he'd get the better heats and lanes and I wouldn't even make it to the finals.
NEWELL HAS clearly set his goals for the 54th edition of the Relys.
"I want to wim what I'm in," he said. "We have an excellent chance to win the 440
"This is my senior year and I've only been able to compete in one Kansas Relays before, so I'm looking to go out with a bang."
His tone appearance came two years ago and Newell, then hampered by the flu
and 880 relays, and I hope I can pull one off in the 100.
Kevin Newell
But those two hindrance were nothing compared with the problems of his junior year. The trouble began early in the 1978 game when Newel lost a bolt with a shot put.
"This is what everyone tells me because I never saw it. I just remember believing that I was next to death, I just knew I was hurt. I didn't know what from. Then I blacked out."
"WE WEER DOING a mini-decathlon to break the monotony of practice and I was standing off to the side talking to someone," he said. "I guess someone didn't know what he was doing and the shot whished by his eldest inches past his chin, and hit in the belly."
After recuperating, Newell stepped right back into competition instead of gradually working himself back into shape. The result in all these problems that bothered him the rest of the year.
HE DID MANAGE, however, to recover
to run with Anthony Coleran, Bob
Cook and Phil Terry.
"Actually, I was fortunate. I only ruptured my bladder and was immobile for a month. The doctor said that if it had hit me, I would have been curtailed. It probably would have been curtailed."
and a slight hamstring pull, described na performance as "dog crap."
"I guess I was just fortunate to do as well as I did. I was just running out of natural ability because after each race it felt like I had been whipped. I have never been so tired after running just a 100. It felt more like I had run a series of quarters."
meter relay team at the NCAA Outdoor Championships. That earned him his third
"Injury-wise, I was okay," Newell said,
"but I was really out of shape. We just had nobody else left; they were all racked up,
too.
Before this season, he was confident that the injury jinx that began his senior year in high school had run its course. Newell has that undying sense of confidence, even when he is not running out. Before that time expires, he wants to capitalize on his injury-married potential.
---
"The highlight of my career was my sophomore year when I won the Big Eight indoor 60," he said. "That was the same year we won the NCAA Indoor mile relay, but that didn't thrill me that much because I had to share it with three other people.
"I have more pride in my individual accomplishments and so far that's my biggest one."
If a healthy Kewell wants to add to his individual achievements, he should find support from the group.
