Tennis squads set for last home meet
By ROB KNAPP
Staff writer
The Kansas men's and women's tennis teams play their last home matches of the season when they play the Colorado Buffaloes today. The men's team also will play Wichita State tomorrow.
The women begin play at 9 a.m. today, and the men follow at 1 p.m. The men's match with Wichita State begins at 1 p.m. tomorrow.
Any Big Eight Conference match is an important one, Scott Perelman, Kansas men's and women's tennis coach, said.
"You don't know where you stand in the Big Eight standings until the season starts."
The winner of the Big Eight is decided by the number of points each team accumulates during the season plus the points earned in the conference tournament at the end of regular-season play.
A team receives one point for each individual victory in singles or doubles play. The men's team has 11 points after two matches and is in
third place in the conference. The women's team has 10 points after three matches.
"With the women, we've got to pull together and fight." Pererlman said. "We've got to be like total animals on the court."
The women's team hopes junior Tracy Treps rebounds at No. 1 singles, and that Treps and sophomore Jenette Jonsson both rebound at No. 1 doubles. They suffered the only Kansas losses in the Jayhawks' 7-2 victory over Kansas State on Tuesday.
Treps is now 11-8 in the No. 1 singles slot and 14-9 overall for the season. Treps and Jonsson are 7-9 at No. 1 doubles and 8-9 overall.
The men's match with Colorado will feature a battle at No. 5 singles between the Buffalooes 'undefeated James Johnson and Kansas senior Larry Pascal. Johnson is 19.0 this season and Pascal is 9-5 in the No. 5 position.
The Jayhawks are led by Mike Wolf, who has an 11-4 record at No.1 singles.
Sports Briefs Women's golf team to travel to Columbia
The Kansas women's golf team will travel to Columbia to compete tomorrow and Sunday in the Missouri Invitational.
The Jayhawks will face nine teams, including Big Eight Conference opponents, Iowa State, Nebraska and Missouri.
Coach Kent Weiser said that the team had not been playing consistently and that he was not sure how the team would play.
"We have proven that we can beat all of these teams," Weiser said yesterday, "but we have also proven that we can lose to all of these teams."
Weiser said that if the playing conditions were good, the team usually played well but that the players were not always able to put bad conditions out of their minds.
"We played well yesterday when the weather was great," Weiser said, "so we are hoping that will take us into the meet thinking positively."
The Jayhawks finished seventh of 14 teams Wednesday after two days of play at the Susie Maxwell-Berning Invitational in Norman, Okla.
Tina Gnewch led the Jayhawks with a 253 total. Susan Pekar and Sherri Atichion finished one stroke behind Gnewch with 254. Donna Jo Loewen followed with a 255 total, and Suzanne Mossberg, who shot a 267, rounded out the field for Kansas.
Crew to compete in regatta
The same five golfers will compete in Columbia.
The Kansas Crew will compete tomorrow in the Washburn Open President's Regatta III at Lake Shawnee in Toneka
Teams from 14 states will compete in the regatta, which will feature 400 and 2,000-meter courses. Some preliminary heats will be raced today and all final heats tomorrow.
This is the Jayhawks second regatta this year. Kansas competed in the Heart of Texas Regatta on March 21 where Kansas won the Jester's Cup as the top team for the fifth year in a row.
Contests set for weightlifters
Weightlifters from Kansas and other states will have one last chance tomorrow at Anschutz Sports Pavilion to qualify for the 1987 National Weightlifting Championships May 2-3 in Detroit
Ed Bilik, Kansas strength coach, said yesterday that about 60 athletes from Kansas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, Missouri and Texas would compete in the Region IX Weightlifting Championships, the 1987 Missouri Valley Masters Meet and the Javhawk Spring Open.
Competition for the 114 to 165-pound weight classes will begin at noon and the 181-pound to super heavyweight classes will compete at 3 p.m.
Bielik said this was not a powerlifting meet because snatch and the clean and jerk were included. These lifts involve strength as well as technique and power, he said.
Biekik said "some well-known weightlifters would compete in the meet, including Derreck Crass, a 1984 Olympian; Gene Gildorph, a 1986 Olympic Champion; McClain, the 1984 World Master's Champion.
"A lot of people are attending the meet just to prepare for the national championships." Bielek said, "so there will be some intense competition."
Bielek said the Kansas graduate and assistant weight coach would compete in the meet, including Al Jakubowski, graduate assistant coach, who is nationally ranked and has competed internationally.
