Kansas ready to splash Georgia
Bulldogs' coach expects close match
By Dan Gelston
Kansan sportswriter
There's nothing like taking a dip in the pool when the temperature is below freezing.
But the Kansas swimming and diving teams have done just that -- indoors, of course -- in preparation for its biggest test of the season. They will face the Georgia Bulldogs tomorrow in Athens, Ga.
The No. 14 women's team will put its 12-0 record on the line against the No. 7 Bulldogs, a perennial powerhouse that has 11 consecutive top-15 national finishes.
The Bulldogs, 4-1, have a match today at South Carolina.
But Kansas swimming and diving coach Gary Kempf, who loves to schedule top national competition, said the women would be ready after defeating No. 18 Nebraska last
weekend.
"We're jumping from the furnace and into the fire," he said. "The good part about it is we're ready and raring to go."
If the Kansas divers defeat the
Bulldogs, they will need another
strong showing from senior
Michelle Rojohn. She set school
records last weekend in both the
one-and three-meter dive.
"Michelle has developed into one of the best divers in the nation," Kempf said.
The No. 20 Kansas men's team is coming off a split performance last weekend.
They defeated No. 10 Minnesota and lost to No. 18 Nebraska.
Their performance was highlighted by Kansas junior Eric Jorgensen, who qualified for the Olympic trials in the 1,000-meter freestyle with a 9:14:14 time.
Last season Georgia narrowly edged Kansas. This year, Georgia swimming and diving coach Jack Bauerie expects another close contest.
"This is just the type of meet we need if we are going to qualify for the NCAA's," he said. "I've known Gary for a long time and we at Georgia respect their program.
"What makes this so good is that both teams are ready to race. I know a lot of coaches like to say that, but these are two great programs that have accomplished a lot."
But will the football coaching situation in Athens prove to be a motivator for the Bulldogs?
"We're not going to hold the Glen Mason thing against them," Bauerle said with a laugh.
The Jayhawks say they're ready for the biggest test of the year."
"I feel confident, especially after beating Nebraska," junior Rebecca Andrew said. "We played them close last year and with the way we've been swimming this year, I think we have a good chance."
But senior diver Pat Burke is looking for more than a just a victory.
"I just hope it's warmer down there," he said.
NFL faces suit over Browns'move
The Associated Press
ATLANTA — The Maryland Stadium Authority filed a federal arrethrit
lawsuit against the NFL today after the league's owner's failed to vote on the proposed move of the Browns from Cleveland to Baltimore.
sary because of "the illegal failure of the NFL owners to approve the transfer of the franchise to Baltimore."
The timing of the lawsuit was curious, considering it came about an hour after commissioner Paul Tagliabue announced that the owners, who met for three days in Atlanta without voting on the Browns situation, would convene again on Feb. 8 and 9 to decide the issue.
Moag said the lawsuit, filed in U.S. District Court in Baltimore, was a pre-emptory strike designed to put pressure on the NFL owners to approve the relocation of the Browns.
"While the league has bent over backwards to allow (Cleveland) Mayor Michael White to present his case, once again the owners have failed to vote on the matter," Moag said. "Our patience has worn thin."
Browns owner Art Modell signed a deal in early November to move his team to Baltimore, but the city of Cleveland filed a state lawsuit and lobbed the owners to block the plan during the Atlanta meetings.
Baltimore can't begin the construction of a new stadium for the Browns, which was scheduled to open in 1998, until the move is finalized.
