Cowboys upset ISU; Sooners top Mizzou The Associated Press KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Just when Iowa State looked as if it might turn the Big Eight basketball race into a three-team affair, along came Oklahoma State and cut it back to two.

MANHATTAN — Danny Manning took an ally-oop pass from Greg Dreiling and stuffed it in during Saturday's game at Ahearn Field House. Javhawks spoil Hartman's script By Frank Hansel By Frank Hansel Associate sports editor MANHATTAN — The script couldn't have been more perfect. The decorated general spurring his troops on to one last victory over their most fierce enemy. This scene, which would have been more appropriate in a war film, took place Saturday at Ahearn Field House. The decorated general, Kansas State head coach Jack Hartman, had six straight times. announced two days before the game that he was resigning at the end of the season. This would be the last time the Wildcats would face their intrastate rival, the Kansas Jayhawks, in Manhattan. Men's Basketball A Wildcat home victory would have been a fitting conclusion to Hartman's career, but either the Jayhawks didn't get a copy of the script or they forgot to read it, because Kansas changed the ending of this movie with a 64-50 win. Forward Danny Manning led Kansas with 18 points. Guard Cedric Hunter and center Greg Drelling each added 14 to ruin Hartman's last battle with Kansas in Manhattan. On Thursday, Hartman announced he was resigning after 30 years of coaching, the last 16 with the Wildcats. The Jayhawks have beaten K-State Kansas head coach Larry Brown said after the game, "To be honest with you, I didn't know if we would win this game going in." K-State forward Norris Coleman said Hartman's announcement probably had the Wildcats trying too hard to win the game. "It was shocking news, but it's not like he's leaving for good," Coleman said. "He'll still be in the area. If he was leaving the area, I don't know what I'd do. "A lot of people come to K-State because of Coach Hartman, and I would fall in that category." Wildcat guard Joe Wright, who kept K-State in the game early with 12 first-half points, said the initial effect of Hartman's resignation had worn off by Saturday. after, but come game time we were ready to play." Wright said. "Things just didn't come together for us." One of those things was Coleman. He suffered through one of his worst shooting days as a Wildcat. The 6-foot-8 freshman, who was averaging 26.4 points in the conference season, connected on only 4 of 18 shots. Much of the game he was guarded by the 6-foot-11 Manning. "It affected us that day and the day "I had my shots," Coleman said. "He (Manning) played great defense, but I just wasn't banging them down." Hartman said the Wildcats cold shooting set the tone early in the game. "Our inability to get shots down was really damaging to us." Hartman said. "Norris in particular had a bad shooting day, and unfortunately we rely a lot on his scoring. If some of his shots had fallen, things might have been different." The Wildcats shot only 38 percent for the game. Hartman will have at least one more battle with the Jayhawks when the teams meet Feb. 22 in Allen Field House.

Last year, Mann played for the team that finished runner-up to the Asvnaptics. In Saturday's championship game, Complete Men jumped ahead 10-2 but fell short 7-6 (4) in the final. "We concentrated on defense and used our quickness to win." Rob Swihart, Lawrence graduate student, said. The Asynaptics had Kansas football defensive back Travis Hardy, linebacker Willie Pless and former junior varsity basketball player Kerry Zimmerman playing for them. Hardy and Pless worked under the boards to pick up the rebounds. Both are good jumpers and Pless has a quick first step. Swihart said. "In this game, most of the scores run in the 50s and 60s," Hardy said. "There is more control. It is a run-and-gun game." Fred Mahler, Lewood senior and a guard for Complete Men, said the Asynaptics had height and quickness advantages over his team. "We were up 8-0 in the first two minutes of the game." Mahler said. "We played good defense and had a lot of three-point plays, but we were dead after playing four games. They ran us to death."
