Women golfers win triangular
The KU women's golf team, led by the strong performance of freshman Cathy Eyre, defeated Nebraska and Kansas State universities in a triangular match in Lawrence Friday. Kansas outscored NU 344-522. K-Sate scored 199.
The Jayhawks' victory avenged a loss to NU suffered last week in the Wichita Inferior.
Eyre was the medalist in the match, touring the Alavarm Hills course in 81 strokes, four better than second-place Jane Deeter of NU. K'S Ually White finished third at 86 and Nancy Hons, who was the individual runner-up in the Wichita match, fourth after shooting an 88. Jenny Rogers finished in a tie for sixth place with an 89.
Eyre, who did not make the trip to
Wichita, said, "I was surprised I didn't think that I would play this well early, so I had to go."
"The rest of the team had been traveling and had to play on Wednesday and Thursday," Eyre said, "and they were probably a little worn out."
Eyre also said that she could have had an advantage over many of the players because she had not had to play three consecutive competitive rounds.
However, White, who improved her score by 12 shots over her first round performance in Wichita, said she thought the Jayhawks played much better Friday.
"We were a little surprised when they (Nebraea) beat us," she said, "but we had doubts that we could beat them. We just had to go and everyone to play well at the same time."
Men's golf team better, gets 5th
Showing marked improvement from its opening performance, KU's men's golf team placed fifth in the 54-hole Oklahoma Invitational tournament this week at Shawnee, OKa.
Wichita State University, the defending champion, won the title with a total of 678 KU placed behind host Oklahoma City University with a team total of 903.
KU golf coach John Hanna said he had been pleased with his hauls' scores and team efforts.
"We played pretty good," Hanna said. "It was the first time in a long time we played basketball."
Oklahoma State, ranked No. 1 in the season's first poll of 16 coaches by Golf World Magazine, placed third. OSU coach Danny Jones and his teammates at home to catch up on their schoolwork.
Junior college transfer Mark Crow
finished with a 54-hole total of 224 to lead KU finishers. David Keady of Oklahoma City University and Eric Mork of Wichita State tied after regulation play with totals of 215. Keady parried and won a one-hole sudden death play to claim the individual title. Other KU totals: Jim Doyle, 228; D.R. Cox, 230; Anderson, 231; and Mark Stenker, 230. Team scoring is determined by adding the four lowest totals from the five-man squad.
Hanna said that it would be a while before the squad reached its potential.
"We need a little more time to work on the short game." Hanna said, "and I think we'll play better in the next game."
"We beat Wichita State on the last day in team scoring--we shot a 294 and they finished with a 302. It was as good as we've played in a long time."
KU's next tournament will be the Cyclone Invitational April 6-8 at Ames, Iowa.

In college baseball, each game of a doubleheader is scheduled for seven innings.
KU's John Spottawnd ended what had been updrawn to be up a long afternoon by taking a seventh-inning home run to win the second game of KU's doubleheader with the visiting team.

The first game hadn't been quite so disappointing for the Hawks. Terry Sutafilie, who were saved some of last season by striking out and retiring the last 13 batters he faced.

"But today he looked like the Sutcliffe I remembered from last year."
"He also tried too hard. He's draftable this year, being a junior, and he's aware of it. It bothered him that he couldn't be effective, and he had been forcing it a little.

Succiffe said he had felt good on the mound.
"BUT I'VE GOTTA give more of the game to matcher Danny Graham. He called a real attack."
Brian Gray, the designated hitter, batted in three of the six Kansas runs. He broke a 16-4 and fourth inning with a leadoff home run and seized two more baserunners in the fifth with a double.

Fambrough starts spring drills
Bv NANCY DRESSLER
KU women's eight crew team strains in its race against Washburn University at Lone Star Lake Saturday afternoon.
Sports Editor
Don Fambridge officially begins his awesome task today, the first day of spring
The new KU head coach begins his second stint in that job with more than 100 players. Of that number, half are returners. And the other has a 1-10 record as well as a Fambridge does.
But from his office in Parrot Athletic Center, Fambrough is nothing but a fountain of enthusiasm for football's future at Kansas.
"Before when I was head coach, I knew that the kids could do because IQ been an artifact of my upbringing. I anticipation. I have a lot of youngsters I know little about. I'm more excited than
Concentrating crew
HE WAS AN assistant coach for 19 years and was head coach from 1971-74. Fambridge was hired again as head coach in December to replace the fired Bud Moore. He says he is ready to overcome the idea that losing is a part of KU's program.
Don Fambrough
"I couldn't be more pleased with the attitude of our team. I've been in this situation for too long."
BUT HE ALKO knows what it is to win. In 1973, he led KU to a 7-41 mark and a trip to the Liberty Bowl in Memphis, Tenn. KU lost that game to North Carolina State, 31-18.
Fambridge knows what it's like to lose. The first time around as head coach, his teams went 19-25-1, including a 4-7 season in 1974 which Kansas lost its last six games.
And winning is what is on Farbrough's mind as he begins his second term at the KU bureau.
"I don't want to talk two or three years from now. We over a lot to a fine group of seniors and we're going to do everything in order to see them go out as winners," he said.
Mike Hibach, one of the nation's premier kickers, returns for his senior year after finishing 23rd in the nation in putting last season with a 41-4 yard average.
"A lot of people ask if I think I can turn the program around in two to three years. I'm glad."
WITH 51 returning lettermen, KU is the most experienced team in the Big Eight, on paper. The Jayhawks' strengths are their drivers and kicking game, Fambridge said.
Returning receivers include Kevin Murphy, David Verser and Russ Bastin, a trio Fambrough called "an exceptional group of receivers."
And another potential strength is at quarterback. Fambrough is especially optimistic about the position because of the offense. An offense Kansas is likely to use this season.
SUCH AN offense will use two running backs in addition to the quarterback, and a fourth in case of a turnover.
"It's a multiple-type offense," Fam-
brough explained. "I think we can adjust it
with the other."
At quarterback, the personnel include Brian Bettek, who was granted a hardship after being injured early in last season. Roger Foote and Bill Lilis.
Harry Sydney, KU's quarterback for much of last season, will be tried at running back.
Fambrough's favorite signal caller going into the spring drills is sophomore Kevin Clinton, who hit 33 of 82 passes late in the season for 439 yards.
"HE REMINDs me of another young man I had before. That man was David Jaynes. The two are very similar," Fambrough said.
Jaynes was KU's quarterback in the 1972 Liberty Balloon loss. He passed for 5,132 total yards in his three-year career and holds 17 KU individual records.
THE INTERIOR positions, on offense and defense, are KU's biggest weakness. Eight of them will be eight junior college transfers would help fill the voleys left by such seniors as Franklin Young, Brandon Bowers and
"We believe in the pass if we have the people that can run it," he said. "But we have to have an offensive line to give protection. That's No.1."
throwing the football much more this season.
Clinton could make the pro set offense work. Fambridge said, which means
Returners Dave Fleether, Mike Gay and Bob Fires are highly tauged by Bambrough to be the best.
Ten players will miss contact drills because of injury, including Warren Harris, John Ojole, Joe Tumphin, John Calovich, Brad Wonack, Jay McAldan, Robert Gentry and John

The objective of spring drills, Fambrough said, is to let the new coaching staff and the team know what they should do.
"I don't want to have a predetermined area of my position." Fambridge said. "I am not sure I want to work here."

'Hawks dominate outdoor opener
Kansas won the 16-team meet with 94 points despite winning only one event. National track power Tennessee State University finished second with 85 points.
By CARLOS MURGUIA
Still riding the crest of momentum of its fourth-place tie in the NCAA Indoor March 10, the men's track team, along with their coaches, acted the action in its outdoor season opening.
No team scores were kept, but KU had more athlete places in the top five than any of its 13 competitors in Saturday's Arkansas Relays in Fayetteville, Ark. However, Missouri, Big Eight Indoor champs, had seven first-second finishes to KU's five.
Despite adversity, the KU women's track team successfully opened its outdoor season by winning the Memphis Invitational in Memphis, Tenn., this weekend.

Ichabods swamp KU crew teams
By BRETT CONLEY
Sports Writer
The KU crew teams were swamped by Washburn University Saturday afternoon at Lone Star lake when the Fighting Ichabods won all four races.
It was what KU coach crew Dose Rose termed a "battle of the have-nots" as both schools raided in shells rented from the Kansas State University crew team.
The men's varsity eight was the only race that was not close. KU jumped out to an early lead, but it then became Washburn's race.
Washburn's men's eight has been rowing since last season, and its timing and technique overcame any KU advantage in size and strength.
KU fell behind by one and a half boat three-fourths of the way through the
KU'S BEST SHOT at victory came in the men's novice four score. KU led by one-half length through most of the race until the final period, but Dave Roffe's seat came untracked.
course, and Washburn sprinted to win the race by three lengths.
In the women's eight race, KU again found itself ahead for the first half of the race. Washburn pulled even at the three-quarter mark, and in the spring for the finish, the Ichabods overcame KU by seven feet.
Because Rokfahr was rowing the stroke position, the crew's timing was thrown off and Washburn caught KU at the finish line as the Jawahaws almost came to a stop.
It was nearly the same story in the women's novice four race. Washburn picked up the stroke halfway through the race, then cut it out and three-fourths of the way through the race.
THEN, FOR THE first time in any of the four races, KU managed to gain on Washburn in the last part of the course. The race was won by KU for a five-foot victory in the final five比赛.
Despite being shut out, Rose said it had not been that poor a day for KU.
"Considering it's only our third semester we did very well," Rose said. "I expected us to win some of these races, but it's only a relative thing. We will have to find out how we stack up against other teams as the year goes along."
"I was very pleased with the novice four crew. When they learn to row a little better,
KU's next meet will be the Big Eight championships this weekend at Stillwater, Oka. KU will compete against KState, Alabama and host Oklahoma State University.
