3 1988-89: Seniors Lead Panther Charge
Coach Kimberly Mayden begins her fifth season in Cedar Falls with four experienced seniors returning, her best recruit ing class ready to go and the taste of winning at the end of last season. The Panthers won four of their final six games a year ago. It would seem that Northern Iowa is ready to pick up where things left off and make the long awaited run at the upper division of the Gateway Collegiate Conference. It won't be easy. All-time leading scorer Diane Roberts, the only all-Gateway Conference player Northern Iowa has had, is gone. Also gone is center Kim Smythe. Experience and depth up front could cause some problems. However, two seniors, Sandy Grabowski (Crown Point, IN) and Cindy Harms (Allison, lA), will anchor the frontline. Both Grabowski and Harms had moments last year when they were unstoppable, but they played inconsistently. This year, senior Chris Shafer (Eddyville, lA) is the only other athlete with size to come in off the bench. She has seen little playing time, however, during her career. That means foul difficulties which have plagued both Grabowski and Harms throughout their careers need to be alleviated to compensate for an inex- perienced bench. · "Sandy and Cindy are the two players we're banking on. No doubt about it," Mayden said. "They've looked very good so far. The only worry I have right now is the depth in the frontline."
DEFENSIVE GOALS FOR 1988-89 Hold opponents to 65 points or less No opponent scores over 20 points Force 20 or more turnovers per game Hold opponents to 42 percent shooting
It may be later in the season, but freshman Linda Steiner (Niles, IL) is expected to contribute up front. She has impressive offensive moves, according to Mayden, and could be the best post defensive player on the team by the end of the year. Junior Rhonda Wiebold (Amana, lA) could contribute in the frontline, but her size limits her to the small forward spot. Sophomore Kathy Kolstedt (Racine, WI) was a disappointment as a fresh man, but has come back playing the solid, fundamental ball that was hoped for last year. In addition to foul troubles, poor rebounding has plagued the Panthers during Mayden 's four previous seasons. With an offense that will use only two, and sometimes just one, post player, it will be crucial that the seniors have good years on the boards. "Someone will have to come to the forefront and pick up the scoring and rebounding that Diane gave us," Mayden feels. effects on the Panthers, as well as the obvious negative ones. "One of our forwards really has to be a leader." Both Grabowski and Harms are exceptionally quick, enabling While Roberts was one of the best shooters the Gateway the Panthers to use more man-to-man pressure up and down Conference has seen, her loss actually could have some positive the court, and giving them the fast break.
4 Throughout the first three years of Mayden's tenure and most of last season, the Panthers' offensive strength lay with the forwards. This season, however, the guards are expected to provide much of the offensive punch. "Looking right now at our backcourt, it's obvious that is where our strength lies, " Mayden feels. "Not just because of our experience there, but also because of our depth. We'll be shuf fling six players in and out on the perimeter." The Panthers' blue-chip guard, Kris Huffman (Fort Dodge, IA) , will be expected to provide much of the scoring punch from the off guard-small forward spot. Mayden expects to play three "guards" at one time this season, although the offensive rota tion won't distinguish between guard and forward. Loretha Mosley (Fort Dodge, lA) and Nicki Rohde (Des Moines, IA), definitely the two best athletes on the team, each need to contribute greatly if the Panthers are to have a good year. Mosley, a sophomore, was UNI's best player at the end of last season and with a year of experience under her belt, she is a possible all-league selection. Rohde also had an outstanding freshman year, but struggled last season. As a junior, she will need to pick up her scoring and rebounding numbers from last season and contribute both as an off-guard and a forward.
OFFENSIVE GOALS FOR 1988-89 Shoot 75 percent from the foul line Shoot 48 percent from the floor Mayden also feels the shooting of the guards will improve. Commit fewer than 17 turnovers "Huffman had a great year, and I think Nicki and Molly are good enough shooters to improve on their numbers. Mosley is learn Score first in both halves ing to take the ball to the hoop, and her percentage will increase Shoot 12 more shots than opponents as she does that." "When we held teams to less than 68 points last year, we were 7-2," Mayden said. ''I'm not worried about our offense, we just The point guard spot is as solid as it can be. Molly Kelly need to stop our opponents." (Oshkosh, WI) and Karen Amrhein (Milwaukee, WI) give the Two years ago, the Gateway Conference prohibited all mem Panthers a Badger connection at that spot. Kelly, a junior, sat ber schools from playing non-Division I schools.

However, she broke her left thumb As far as the conference goes, Mayden expects a four-team and her right arm during pre-conditioning drills and has to race for the title. Drake and Illinois State should be the front rebound from those injuries before contributing. Mosley also runners, but always strong Southern Illinois and Eastern Illi can play the point spot. Freshman Jill Jameson (Crown Point, nois also should contend. Indiana State nearly won the league IN) had outstanding high school credentials and should con title last year and could contend again, with Southwest Missouri tribute right away. State, Wichita State and Western Illinois battling with Bradley "While we've got some experienced people in the guard and UNI for the other spots. court," Mayden said, "our main weakness is lack of experience coming off the bench, but I think by mid-season that will be history."
