Those stuck in Lawrence during spring break or coming back early from vacation will have a chance to see one of the best gymnastics meets in the nation.
KU will host the Big Eight Gymnastics Championships Friday and Saturday, March 18 and 19, in Allen Field House. The team of six teams in the nation will be represented.
Oklahoma is rated No. 3 in the country; Iowa State, No. 5; and Nebraska, No. 6. Colorado and KU will compete in the meet, but Kansas State, Missouri and Oklahoma State don't have competitive gymnastics teams.
THE MEET begins at 1 p.m. March 18 with compulsory routines on the six Olympic events—floor exercise, gymnastics, tumbling, paulting, parallel bars and horizontal baskets.
Optional routines, those designed by each gymnast, will be at noon March 19 with
The team title will be decided during Saturday's afternoon session, as will the all-around title. The top eight gymnasts in each event advance to the finals. The top three gymnasts and top three gymnasts in the individual events also advance to the national meet.
THIS MEET is an NCAA qualifying competition with the top team advancing to nationalals April 1-2 in Tempe, Arzte. Another Big Eight team could advance to nationalls if the winning team in another qualifying team doesn't meet the NCAA qualifying standard.
Oklahoma, with its group of outstanding performers, is the team to beat. The Sooners have last year's top high school star, Bart Comer, who competed for the NCAA Division I basketball championship. KU two weeks ago Aconer scored 58.70 (just 4.3 from a perfect 60) in the all-around.
KU coach Bock Lockwood said yesterday that at least five KU gymnasts have a chance to make the final. Currently, two Jayhawks are rated in the top six in the conference: John Nunley on the still rings and Sean Williams on vaulting. Lockwood
Mundy tumbles ingym regionals
Karen Mundy had a bad day and failed to qualify for any finals at the AIAW Region 5 gymnastics championships yesterday, women's gymnastics coach Ken Snow.
Mundy, the only KU gymnast who competed in the meet, took 11th in vaulting with an 8.7 of 10 possible—an 8.7 was needed to advance to决赛. She then led the team across the uneven parallel bars, 7.2 on the balance beam and 7.5 on the floor exercise.
said Williams had a chance to make finals in floor exercise.
CHAD KELLEY and Bill Harmas have a chance to make finals on pennel horse, Lockwood said, as does Jody Summers on the horizontal bar.
Lockwood praised all-rounder Mike Hynes and horizontal bar specialist Bob Teel. He said that Hynes would perform 12 routines in the two-day period and that Teel had come through well for KU after suffering an injury, which has high school competition in December.
"The unfortunate part of the Big Eight championships is that most of the time it occurs during spring break." Lockwood said. "For those students that are back, it's hard to see an international-type competition. I feel that it'll be one of the best meets in the nation. It's just too bad it has to be scheduled at that time."
Tickets are **2** for the compulsory and optional sessions, **3** for finals or **5** for all sessions. They are available in Allen Field House.
