10-year dual streak broken
By Dawn O'Malley
Sports writer
The Nebraska Cornhuskers women's swim team did what other teams haven't been able to do in the last 10 years — defeat Kansas in Robinson Natatorium.
Nebraska ended the Kansas women's swim team's 10-year dual meet winning streak Saturday.
The Kansas women's swim team led the Cornhuskers going into the 400-yard freestyle relay. Cornhusker victories in both the 400 freestyle relay and the 400 medley gave them 14 points and the 88-55 victory. Kansas did not score in the two relays.
Tri-captain Chris Wright said yesterday that it had been a tradition for the women's team to go undefeated in the dual season at Robinson.
"We outswam Nebraska individually," Wright said. "But the relay points were the big turning point. We gave it our best, but Nebraska was a little bit stronger."

meet 70-43 over the Jayhaws.
Both Nebraska teams are the defending Big Eight Champions.
"Kansas is not going to lose many meets," Nebraska women's head swim coach Ray Huppert said. "We went to the last races. I am tired of the close ones."
"We never should have lost." Kansas head swim coach Gary Kempf said. "Nebraska sneaked out. They did better. We did OK, but we did push them to the hilt."
In the 200-yard butterfly, the Cornhusker's Erin Hurley nosed out the Jayhawk's Becci Ream to win with a time of two minutes 26.07 seconds. Ream finished in 2:26.25.
"Nebraska is a good, good club," Kempf said, "and they better understand that we are too."
Jayhawk diver Lori Spurney held off Nebraska's Sherri Birmingham and Julie May to win both
the one-and three-meter diving board competition. Spurney qualified for nationals on both boards earlier in the season.
Kansas' Mike Prangle qualified for nationals Saturday on the one-meter board. He qualified earlier in the season on the three-meter board.
Nebraska's Lewis Meyers, Wes Zimmerman and Jim Huelskamp swept the three-meter diving.
Georaskia's Jon Linder edged out Kansas' Chuck Jones to win the 1,000 free style. Linder won at 9:42.60 to Jones' 9:42.95.
In the 500-yard freestyle, Jones led throughout the race but in the last 50 yards Nebraska's Mike Irvin overtook Jones. Irvin's time was 4:40.95. Jones finished at 4:41.52.
Irwin also won the 400-yard individual medley at 4:09.14. His closest competitor was Kansas' Karl Stumpf who came in at 4:19.25.
Kempf said his men's team matched the Cornhuskers.
Duke beats Georgia Tech 75-59
United Press International
DURHAM, N.C. — Duke won its battle of wits with Georgia Tech yesterday, in the process laying claim to the nation's No. 2 ranking and second place in the Atlantic Coast Conference standings.
The Blue Devils ran off with a deceptively wide margin of victory, 75-59, powered by a strong second-half performance by senior forward
Alarie hit five straight baskets in the first 4:19 of the second period to help Duke break away from a 34-33 halftime lead. His shot with 15:41 left gave Duke a 50-39 advantage.
"We really played an excellent second half," said Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski. "The first half we played very hard, but not all that smart. But in the second half we combined aggressive, physical play with extremely aggressive, intelligent play."
Georgia Tech coach coach Bobby Cremins agreed brains were the key.
"If there's anything wrong with us right now, it's that we're not playing with the intelligence we need," said Cremins.
Duke, winning its sixth game in a row and improving to 11-0 at home this season, ended up with sole possession of second place in the ACC with a 9-2 league record, 22-2 overall.
No. 2. ranking with Duke but fell to 18-4 overall and dropped into a tie for third in the ACC with North Carolina State at 6-3.
Alarie thought Duke's "killer instinct" at the start of the second half had more to do with the outcome than anything.
Georgia Tech shares the nation's
Alarie sank all seven of his second-half shots from the floor to finish with a game-high 24 points. Senior All-America guard Johnny Dawkins added 22 points for Duke.
"It was a great game for a half, but then Duke just totally out-played us," Cremins said. "They really got after us and pled very hard. They played some great, great basketball."
Shaula Hatcher trimmed nearly 20 seconds off the Kansas school record in the three-mile run Friday in the two-day Jayhawk Invitational at Anschutz Sports Pavilion.
Hatcher's time of 16:40.4 broke the old mark of 16:59.9, set in 1890 by Maureen Finholm during the Big Eight Championships at Lincoln, Neb. Hatcher, who finished third in the event, also placed third as part of the distance medley team on Saturday.

Six members of the Kansas track team competed in the Oklahoma Track Classic in Oklahoma City, the site of this season's National College Athletic Association Indoor Championships. Competing in the meet gave the Jayhawks an opportunity to get used to the wooden runways at the complex in time for the championships.
Rick Attich, assistant track coach,
said yesterday that the runways took
their tolls on the Jayhawks, with
Kansas' only placing coming from
freshman polevaulter Chris
Stevens. He was 17 and in place of
12 feet. Wanches in place sixth.
Track
In the Kansas Invitational, Kansas
mile and two-mile relay teams each placed first, as did Tom Hays in the polevault. Courtney Hawkins in the 60-yard hurdles, and Gerald Harder in the 1,000-yard run.
Bob Timmons, KU men's head track coach, said 13 of his Jayhawks had personal career bests in their events, while 19 others had their best times of the season.
In addition to Hatcher's school-record setting performance, the Jayhawk women had two first place finishes. Ann 0'Connor finished first in the high jump with a jump of 5-feet-10-inches and Trish Aubuchon won the 600-yard run in one minute, 27.85 seconds.
Kansas shotputter Denice Buchanan, who competed in the Husker Invitational, placed second with a toss of 50-feet-13-inches.
