Top KU tennis players compete in premier national tournament
By Tom Stinson
Kansan sports writer
The Rolex National Indoor Intercollegiate Tennis Championships is possibly the premier college indoor tennis tournament. But for John Falbo, Chris Walker and Craig Wildey, it's just another weekend of tennis.
The three players will compete today in Minneapolis - Falbo in singles and Walker and Wildey in doubles.
Last year, Kansas' Mike Wolf and the doubles team of Wolf and Larry Pascal advanced to the quarterfinals of the singles and doubles in the championships.
“This is the premier indoor college event,” said Coach Scott Perelman. “I'm fortunate to have great players in my class who can contribute to the team. To qualify for the indoor champion-
ship's singles event, players compete in one of eight regional championships in the fall. The top two singles players in each region qualify. Another 16 at large berths are given to some of the nation's top players.
The top doubles team in each of the eight regionalists qualifies for the indoor tournament, along with eight at-large teams.
In the Mid American Regional, held in October in Wichita, Falbo, Charleston, W.V., freshman, defeated Jack Salerno of Oklahoma State. Walker and Wildey defeated Jesse Falbo and Pascal to advance.
For the three Jayhawks, this championship is just another tournament with good competition. Walker and Wildey agreed that the only difference was the quality of competition in every round.
"It's an elite field, so you get quality tennis from the start," said Walker, Grand Rapids, Mich., sophomore. "We're looking forward to it."
Although the tournament features the top collegiate singles and doubles players, Perelman is confident.
"When we play well, we're one of the best teams in the country. So what we need to do is try to be the best, not beat the best."
"But if you're going to go, you might as well go to win. If they play their best tennis, they're capable of winning."
"Anybody can win this tournament," Perelman said. "The key is to get that first round behind you and to relax while you're playing.
After today's matches, rounds will be played each day, with the finals Sunday.
Athletic directors get new tasks

The University of Kansas Athletic Corporation board of directors announced a change in responsibilities among its administration and held a closed-door discussion on academic problems at yesterday's meeting.
Gary Hunter, associate athletic director, and Richard Konzem, assistant athletic director for development, have been assigned new responsibilities. Hunter, who has worked in internal affairs in the department for 2% years, will switch to external affairs. He will supervise the Williams Fund and work with special fund-raising projects.
Konzem, who has worked on the
Williams Fund for seven years, will be in charge of internal administration. Williams Fund donations increased from $1.2 to $2.5 million annually during Konzem's time.
Athletic Director Bob Frederick said the new assignments allowed both men to expand their administrative experience, preparing them for athletic directorships.
Konzem said, "I'd expressed to Bob that my goal was to be an athletic director. I told him if the opportunity presented itself, I'd like to get into different areas of the department. I'm thrilled about it."
Also, after a closed discussion, the board voted unanimously to approve a new student-athlete policy submitted by the academic committee.
The policy, a detailed version of the old policy, will assist student-athletes in staying eligible and completing degree requirements.
"It's a good document," said David Amber, vice chancellor for student affairs. "The changes were made for clarification. The intent is to set guidelines for the student-athlete program."
Before the closing of the meeting, alumni board member Mike Holland said, "The current policy isn't working very well. The board is facing a crisis. People are wondering what Kansas University can do academically to put a competitive team on the field in any sport."
