Sports Thursday, Feb. 6, 1986 University Daily Kansan 13 Manning's early surge leads KU over century mark By Matt Tidwell Sports writer Scott Wilke, Colorado center, and Greg Dreiling wait for the reteee's call during their game at Allen Field House. The Jayhawks won the game last night 100-64. Danny Manning scored 14 of the first 16 Kansas points as the Jayhawks grabs an early lead and beat Colorado 100-64 last night in Allen Field House. The win was Kansas' 29th in a row at home. The Jayhawks are now 21-3 and tied for the Big Eight lead with Oklahoma at 6-4. Colorado, using a revised starting lineup with four freshmen, attempted to slow the game down early, but the Jayhawks converted several Buffalo turnovers into fast-break baskets to post an early lead. Ron Kellogg scored first for Kansas by hitting a jump shot on the Jayhawks' first possession. Manning, who was the high scorer with 20 points, followed with 14 straight points, "Our turnovers resulted directly info quick hoops for Kansas," Colorado head coach Tom Apke said. "I thought Manning was terrific. I'm more impressed with him every time I see him. He's certainly one of the top players in the nation." Kansas led by ten points, 18-8, for the first time when Kellogg hit a jump shot with 12 minutes, 12 seconds left in the half. The Jayhawks made more than 65 percent of their remaining field-goal attempts and forged a 54-28 halftime lead. "I'm happy." Brown said. "I was concerned if we were ready to play at first, but Danny - was really something." 'Apkie colored Came into the game wanting to slow down the tempo but that nearly all the Colorado turnovers — 20 in the game, 14 in the first half — were converted into scores for Kansas. In the second half, the Jayhawks kept leads of between 25 and 30 points. With six minutes left, Kansas head coach Larry Brown pulled all of his starters and played reserves for the remainder of the game. "When we made half-court defense play half-court offense we played reasonably well," Apke said, "but they just got too many two-on-one and three-on-one fast break opportunities and there was really nothing we could do in that situation." After Manning's early surge, it was the Jahayhins' patient offense that allowed Kansas to keep control of the game. "We just passed the ball around a lat tonight and did a good job of attacking," Dreiling said. "We were feeling really loose coming in and we played well." Kansas' Calvin Thompson scored 18 points and had his best offensive performance since Jan. 4 against Memphis State. "It didn't take too long for us to come out of the shoot tonight," Thompson said. "I think we concentrated a lot more on making the extra pass and hitting the open man. Danny's play certainly helped us early." Kansas reserves scored 42 points in preserving the win. "It was nice to see those guys come in and build on the lead," Dreiling said. "They kept attacking and played real tough defense." The home winning streak wasn't the only Kansas record to fall. Jayhawk guard Cedric Hunter had seven assists and broke former Kansas All-Commerce Darnell Valentine's record of 170. Hunter has 175 assists this season. "I'm proud to see Cedric break the record in 24 games," Brown said. "Darrene is a great player and that speaks highly of Cedric." Brown said the new Allen Field House winning streak record also meant a lot to him. "I'm proud," he said. "A lot of people should be proud. Our students should be proud. We've played a tough schedule in doing it, so that's something to be proud about."

"There's nothing wrong with it. I'm all right."

Swimmers face Big 8 rival Nebraska From staff and wire reports. By Dawn O'Malley The rivalry between the Kansas and Nebraska women's swim teams continues in Robinson Natatorium on Saturday. Sports writer At last year's Big Eight Conference championships in Lincoln, Neb., the Cornhuskers stripped the Kansas title for the first time in 10 years. "Losing last year opened up our eyes a little," Kansas head swim coach Gary Kempf said Tuesday. "We are still going to swim this like another swim meet. "Nebraska is extremely strong, yet so are we. We keep doing better every weekend. We wear in a race and compete. That's what it is all about." The Kansas women's swim team has not lost a dual meet in ten years in Robinson Natoriatrium, and it hopes its awkward's meet continues the streak. The Jayhawks already have met the Cornhuskers twice this season. The Jayhawks won the first meeting Swimming at the Big Eight Invitational in November. The Cornhuskens won the second round in the Nebraska Invitational in December. "Anyone who is familiar with the conference realizes that there is a tremendous rivalry between Kansas and Nebraska," Nebraska women's head swim coach Ray Huppert said. "It is a good rivalry that brings out the best in the athletes." Huppert said he wasn't preparing his team any differently for Kansas. "This is just the steppingstone to the Big Eight championships," he said. Kansas middle-distance swimmer Susan Spry said, "It is going to be a fight to the finish. I hope we're on top." Because of injury or sickness, only 16 of the 22 women on the Nebraska team will travel to Lawrence, Huppert said. "I don't want to release the names at this point," Huppert said. "I will make a more definite decision later this week." Nebraska men's head coach Cal Bentz said the team had some help. The entire Nebraska men's team will lead to Insurance The Nebraska men's team hasn't tared as well as the women's team. "All the losses have been to ranked teams," he said. "We seem to be improving but there are injuries and shoulder problems." The Nebraska women's team is 9-2. It lost dual meets to Louisiana State and Southern Illinois. The Kansas women's team is 6-1. "We want to win the meet," Bentz said. "The best line will be in." Kempf said his lineup would remain much the same. However, he did say that he had two surprises he would unveil at the meet. He would not elaborate. He said the Kansas men's team hadn't had as good a year as the women. Its record is 4-4. That doesn't mean team members from being optimistic. Jayhawk men's tri-captain Chris McCool said, "The men are continuing to improve. At each meet we are more competitive and it will be the same thing this time. The meet is scheduled to begin at 2 p.m. The Kansas teams will have one more meet before the Big Eight championships March 6-3. They will also play Arkansas on Feb. 15 at Robinson. This weekend marks the sixth annual alumni weekend for former Kempf said he expected about 25 former swimmers to attend the reunion. They will test their skills against one another in a swim meet before the Kansas-Nebraska competition.
