Friday, February 25, 2000 The University Daily Kansan Section B·Page 7 7 Despite Cornhusker edge in rebounding. 'Hawks cruise in win Rebounders grab win for 'Hawks sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter By Matt Tait They did it against Marcus Fizer and Iowa State. They did it against Eduardo Najera and Oklahoma. They didn't do it against Nebraska — but it didn't matter. After the Jayhawks outrebounded their opponent in two straight games — a 64-62 loss versus Iowa State and a 53-50 win Yet, Kansas won the game by a landslide. 83-58. One question comes to mind—how? How is it that Kansas held down two of the Big 12 Conference's top rebounding forwards, but was outrebounded by the conference's Williams: Pleaseed with rebounding against Nebraska The answer is simple — Kansas was not given credit for every rebound it got. Officially, every rebound the 'Hawks corralled was marked down in the official statistic book. But it was the balls that Kansas didn't grab, but rather kept alive, that gave it the unofficial rebounding edge. Nick Bradford Kansas forward time and time again Kansas players flew toward the offensive glass tipping the ball, tapping the ball and batting the ball into the air so that another teammate could grab hold of it and score the basket. "I think we did a good job on the boards because if you look at second-chance points we had 18, they had 14." Kansas coach Roy Williams said. Leading the reboulding effort for Kansas on Wednesday was forward Nick Bradford who had seven, five of which were offensive. "It was a step-up game for him tonight," center Eric Chenowith said of Bradford after the Nebraska win. "He really put his body on the line and sacrificed a lot for us to get a win." Forwards Drew Gooden and Nick Collison each chipped in with six rebounds and Chenowith snagged five. Like Bradford, each of the rebounders also contributed to the Jayhawks' second chances. "I think as a team we were better defensively — we were more active and we really tried to compete more on the boards," Bradford said. Nebraska outrebounded the Jayhawks 52-44 their first meeting Jan. 15 in Lawrence. However, Kansas won that game too, 97-82. forward Nick Bradford tries to keep the ball away from Nebraska center Kimani Friend on Wednesday. Photo by Matt J. Daugherty/KANSAN Sooners won't alter strategy against Kansas women With the Big 12 Conference title on the line, one would think Oklahoma had a specific game plan to defeat No. 25 Kansas tomorrow. But that exactly what it wants to avoid. in Oklahoma loses to the Jayhawks, it would drop from a first-plate tie with Iowa State and Texas Tech in the conference to fourth, but the No. By Meindha Weaver sports@kansan.com Kansan sportswriter Bv Melinda Weaver 24 Sooners, 21-6ove all and 11-3 in the Big 12, aren't as worried as it seems they should be. "We aren't going to any- thing different against Kansas." coach 121 games for a reason. We just need to polish it up. "We need to find ways to play with abandon and freedom and do what we are good at. Mentality is not as easy to prepare for, but Oklahoma has little to worry about as far as physical talent goes. She said it is more important to prepare that frame of mind than to prepare a special game plan. The Sooners lead the conference in scoring, free-throw percentage, field goal percentage, rebounding defense, assist/turnover ratio and assists. Oklahoma has three players with double-digit scores averages, led by senior forward Phylesha Whaley, who averages 20.2 points. The Sooners also are getting key contributions from freshman Caton Hill, averaging 9.9 points and 7.3 rebounds per game. Coale acknowledged that Kansas also had several scoring weapons, but instead of being worried, she said it made the game plan easier to prepare. "We are hard to beat because we have so many players who can score." Hill said. "Phylesha Whaley, Stacey Dales and LaNeisha Caufield are very hard to stop and can score from lots of places. Our biggest strength is that we have so many people who contribute." "You can't say that if you can stop Lynn Pride, you can stop the team because they have several very good players," Coale said. "Jaclyn Johnson is as good in the post as anyone in the conference, and Suzi Raymant is a terrific player and a terrific shooter." "It makes the preparation easier because you don't need a special defensive game plan to stop one player." she said. "We just have to play solid and do what we have done all season." Yes, Kansas is athletic and has powerful weapons on offense. Yes, the Jayhawks play aggressive and have a tough defense. But for Oklahoma, this is nothing new. "We just played Texas Tech, and they are one of the leaders on defense in the country." Coale said. "At this point in the year, we have seen everything. Kansas isn't a big worry for us."
