12 Monday, December 12, 1988 / University Daily Kansan Sports Torrid shooting,solid defense propel KU over Temple 95-78 By Arvin Donley Kansan sportswriter Because of the NCAA's ruling in November that prohibits Kansas from defending its national title, the Jayhawks important games, such as their 9-78 victory over Temple to occur during the regular season. For the Jayhawks, the game was an opportunity to show the nation what they can do. "Now, when someone hears the name Kansas they think probation and they forget that we're still a good team," said forward Milt Newton, who had shot from the field and a perfect six for six from the free throw line. Sophomore forward Mark Randall scored 22 points on 10 of 11 shooting and grabbed a game-high 15 in scoring with 18.9 points per game. "After sitting out a season I'm ready for every game," said Randall, who sat out last season after having jaw surgery to correct a breathing problem. "One like this is only a little more special. "All I did last season was practice. That was tough, sitting, watching from the end of the bench as they won the national championship. It hurt bad." For the game, Kansas shot 60 percent from the field, while Temple hit on only 37 percent of its shots. The Jayhawks dominated the boards, outrebounding the Owls 42-24. With the Jayhawks leading 19-14 midway through the first half the Owls went cold from the field and the Jayhawks got hot. Kansas scored 13 unanswered points on a pair of three-pointers by Prichard and two baskets each by Randall and Mike Maddox to take a 32-14 lead. Milwaukee to Kansas increased its lead to as much as 22 in the second half as Temple never got closer than 12 points. Pritchard made seven of eight free throws during the last two minutes to seal the victory for the Javahaws. Earlier in the week, Kansas coach Roy Williams said the key to defeating Temple was to keep All-American guard Mark Macon's field goal percentage down. The Jayhawks did just that. Macon, a sophomore, came into the game averaging 24.5 points per game. He scored 30 points, but was only 11 for 28 from the field for 39 percent. Senior Mike Vreesway added 18 points for the Owls, shooting 4 for 12 from three-point range and 5 for 14 overall. "We used a basic rotation of Pritchard, Newton and Scooter Barry on Macon and Vreeswyk." Williams said. "Macon may have been pressing, but Scooter's defense had something to do with it." Pritchard said, "I really feel sorry for Macon. He's just a sophomore and he's seeing all these special jobs and getting all the attention." Temple, which was 32-2 last season, dropped to 0-3 this season — the worst start for the Owls since 1913. But Temple coach John Chaney said the Owls had lost to three excellent opponents. "We played against a very good basketball team today. They are better than last year in my opinion, said Chaney, whose team lost to 10th-ranked Arizona earlier this season in the Tournament of Champions. "The likelihood of losing is there when you play games like these. It is the coaches domain to handle it. These games were scheduled three years ago and no matter how much I can not recruit now to change this team." Kansas nearly reached its season average of 95.2 points per game. The Jayhawks have four players averaging more than 10 points per game. The Jayhawks return home to play the Northern Arizona Lumberjacks tonight at 7:35 in Allen Field House. Northern Arizona, along with Southern Methodist, were the only teams added to the Jayahwks schedule after Williams took over as head coach on July 8. Kansas coach on July 6.

The Associated Press Sooners tie record in 152-point game in the second half, Oklahoma ran, pressed and shot its way to an NCAA record 87 points, winning 152-122. The Sooners are now 5-1. NORMAN, Okla. — Oklahoma was impressive in the first half against Oral Roberts, scoring 65 points and making eight 3-point shots. As it turned out, the sixth-string Sooners were just warm-uping up. It's to me the way it ought to be played," said Olal Rubens coach Ken Trickey. "We like to play. We're not going to come in here and walk the ball up the floor, play slow." "I think tonight, for the first time this season, I saw some things to show that we're shaping up," said Coach Billy Tubbs, who has never been bashful about pounding opponents. "All in all, I liked it, but I don't like to see us give up that many points." The 122 scored by Oral Roberts, 2-5, were the most ever scored against a Tubbs-coached team in his eight-plus years at Oklahoma. The Titans scored 73 points in the second half. "it was the way we wanted to play," said Titan guard Haywoodo Workman, who scored 30 second-half points for a career-high 42. We wanted to run up and down, so we wanted to run up and down." And they did. The 152 points by Oklahoma tied the NCAA record for most points scored against a Division I opponent.

The committee's executive board asked international sports federations Friday to strip Olympic eligibility of athletes to compete in South Africa. It also said Olympic athletes should be warned not to go to South Africa for events once the Games were done. Tennis and gymnastics, the only two Olympic sports that retain formal ties with South Africa, were specifically mentioned in the announcement of the move by Keba Mbaye, an IOC member from Senegal and head of its anti-apartheid commission. But other officials said all sports were involved. Track and boxing already bar athletes who compete in South Africa from international competition and other sports impose lesser sanctions or review each case individually. The commission mentioned these two sports, but we must be concerned about all sports in the Olympics participating in South Africa," IOC president Juan Antonio Samaranch said. The IOC president was given a citation for his work against apartheid by J. N. Garba of Nigeria, chairwoman of the Special Committee Against Apartheid. we would be very, very happy to welcome South Africa back to the Olympics, but that will come only when all signs of apartheid in South Africa are dead." Samaranch said. FIFA, wishing to protect its own World Cup from competition as the premier soccer event, wants to limit the Olympic tournament to players 24 years and younger. The IOC, with Samaranch leading the call, wants the tournament open to all players. Closing a week of meetings with a joint session of the IOC board and the Association of National Olympic Committees, Samarran said he was optimistic of reaching a compromised national body of soccer, over eligibility for the 1992 Olympic tournament in Barcelona. Doping has been the main topic at the meetings and Samaranch said progress had been made since this summer's Olympics, where steroid use stripped Ben Johnson of the 100-meter dash gold medal and nine other athletes were punished for drug use. "After Seoul, we are more aware of what is happening." Samaranch said. "I am very optimistic we will be able to win this struggle." Samarancan also said the two might be willing to help pay for wider drug testing, such as the agreement being hammered out among the United States, the Soviet Union and East Germany to check each other's athletes. Bob Davis, play-by-play man for the Jayhawk Network, gets ready for last week's Kansas-Pacific Lutheran basketball game. Catherine Wheeler/KANSAN His face isn't recognized always, but his voice is By Jeff Euston Kansan sportswriter Bob Davis is known throughout Kansas as the 'Voice of the Jayhawks,' but that doesn't mean he's always recognized. recognized. Davis is in his fifth year of calling play-by-play for Kansas football and basketball, and has worked as a broadcaster for 21 years. Besides broadcasting Kansas games and serving as the host for call-in shows with Kansas football coach Glen Mason and Kansas basketball coach Roy Williams, Davis is the sports director at KMZB radio in Kansas City, Mo. Although he is heard all over Kansas and Missouri, Davis' face is not usually recognized on the street. "There's some name recognition, but not like you might have television." Davis said. But Davis doesn't mind. He enjoys broadcasting sports. "There have been a lot of great announcers at KU before, and I thought it would be fun to try to follow some guys." "I've lived in Kansas all my life, and I've been doing this for 21 years now," said Davis, who graduated from Washburn University in Topeka. "I'd done some KU things on an occasional basis before, and I have always liked KU and thought it would be a great place to broadcast sports. He has been honored five times as the Kansas sportcaster of the year and twice been awarded the Oscar Stauffer Award for excellence in reporting of high school sports. As the basketball season progresses, Davis finds his time at a premium. *Basketball tends to be a little hectic because there's a* "We've had exciting times, some real, unbelievable monumental times." Bob Davis lot of travel, we (KMBC) carry the games, so that fits into what we're doing also. It really is two jobs. Davis has no doubt about his broadcasting highlight at Kansas... "Last April. It has to be." he said "But there have been several. The win over Kansas State in Pontiac, going to the Final Four in '86, beating Oklahoma in football in '84." "Some of the trips we've made have highlighted in that we've been to some interesting places. Alaska and Hawaii several times. And then we've been all over the 48 states. It's been a tour for five years." sales. It's so crucial to be associated with KU for five years makes it difficult to remain objective when covering the lavihawks. Davis said. "You want the kids to win, but it's not a neutral broadcast as such, like a network broadcast. I don't think anyone's upset by the fact that we'd like KU to win, but I think you still have to maintain objectivity." think you can't be a KU audience and it's the official broadcast of the University, that's not unlike a pro team's broadcast." "The offensive line is playing real well." Davis' audience has heard him describe some of the most memorable moments in Kansas athletic history, and Davis said he planned to continue broadcasting at Kansas for a long time. we've had exciting times, some real, unbelievable monumental times," he said. "And we've had some of the other. We've had some tremendous peaks and valleys. Giants down Chiefs 28-12; Bears clinch division The Associated Press Bill Parcells has a two-step, sure-fire way of getting into the playoffs: play well in December and move the ball on the ground. That's just what the New York Giants are doing now, and only a victory over the New York Jets separates them from a second NFC East title in three years. never next week. New York still isn't assured a playoff berth, however, and enters the final week of the season with a one-game lead over Philadelphia, 9.6. If the teams finish in 2, the Eagles, who play Dallas next weekend, would win the division by virtue of sweeping two games against the Giants in the regular season. Phil Simms rediscovered tight end Mark Bavaro for two touchdowns and Ottis Anderson and Maurice Carthon added fourth-quarter scores on short runs yesterday as the Giants moved closer to the playoffs with a 28-12 victory over the Kansas City Chiefs. "The month of December is important," linebacker Lawrence Taylor said. "If you play well in December, you make the playoffs. That's been the rule in the league since I've been here and we're playing now. We have one more big one next week." The Giants, 10-5 after winning their third in a row and second in December, play the Jets here next week. yards. The Giants managed only 244 yards, but 159 came on the ground as the Giants offensive line paved the way for Joe Morris to rush for a season-high 140 yards on 31 carries. The Giants defense is playing especially well. They have given up just one touchdown in three games and yesterday limited the Chiefs to 258 yards. NFL Roundup Morris said, "We're getting good movement. In December, you have to run the ball, you have to have a running game. It's not over. We have one real tough opponent next week." one one corner up back Chiefs cornerback Deron Cherry said injuries up front have allowed teams to run against Kansas City. The Giants picked their spots for the pass yesterday, and the Simms-to-Bavaro combination was the key. "Today we called his number a little more," said Simmons, who completed six of 15 passes for 34 yards. "They just played a defense that let me go to him." "We knew they were going to run against us," he said. "They'd be stupid not to. You are not going to throw and beat us." Detroit 12 On Saturday, Philadelphia beat Phoenix 23 17 and the New York Jets took Indianapolis 34 16. Detroit 12 Chicago made next week's visit to Minneapolis meaningless as far as the division title is concerned. Trailing 12-10, the Bears marched from their 30 to deep in Detroit territory behind quarterback Jim Harbaugh. The ntrd-string quarterback used a 17-yard pass to Dennis McKinnon and an 11-yarder to James Thornton to set up Kevin Butler's winning field goal. On the previous series, the Lions drove 80 yards, with Garry James scoring on a 1-yard touchdown drive for a 12-10 lead. Al Harris blocked the extra point attempt by Ed Murray, and that was the margin of victory in Chicago's ninth straight win against Detroit. A Minnesota victory would have made next Monday night's home game with the Bears the decider for the division crown and for best record in the NFC. Instead, the Vikings lost for the second time this season to the Packers, who have won just three games, tied for the worst record in the league. Green Bay 18 Minnesota 6 Green Bay broke a seven-game loss streak with its first win in a non-strike game* at Lambuele Field since Dec. 1, 1985.

Los Angeles Raiders 21 The Bengals, who have clinched a playoff berth, didn't manage a first down until 44 seconds remained in the first quarter. Cincinnati's offense, ranked No. 1 in the league, had previously been held to a low of 16 points this season. It was the first game in which Cincinnati didn't score a touchdown this year.
