Intramural basketball set to begin
Although plopping down in front of the television and watching four hours of college basketball might sound appealing to the average college sports fan, the chance to get some exercise and compete is just around the corner.

scheduling, which will be Tuesday and Wednesday at Robinson. The advantage of the block scheduling system, Krone said, was that it gave teams the opportunity to play when it was convenient.
This semester's intramural sports season will kick off with a basketball manager's meeting at 7 p.m. Sunday at Robinson Center. Jason Krone, assistant director of recreational services, said he expected a high level of interest.
"Sunday night we'll be giving out all of the rules, talking about policies and answering any questions or concerns." Krone said.
It costs $30 per team to enter the intramural basketball league. Krone stressed the importance of Sunday night's meeting for interested teams, as well as the sign-ups for block
"We've found that the block scheduling system cuts down on forfeits." Krone said.
The regular intramural season will be split into three main divisions: men's, women's and co-recreation. As in previous years, teams will play three regular season games before being seeded for tournament play.
Once into the playoffs, men's teams will be placed into one of the five playoff divisions, which are residence hall, Greek, open, law and "b." Women's and co-recreation teams are divided into residence hall, Greek and open.
"The men's 'b' division is new to intramurals, and we're hoping people enter it," Krone said. "It's a division that is not as competitive. Instead of entering a tournament after the regular season, those teams just play a fourth
He said that although the men's "b" division should be an enjoyable and laid back division, other intramural tournament action should be very competitive.
game."
Aaron Johnson, Plymouth, Minn., freshman, played varsity basketball in high school and will be playing intramurals at the University of Kansas.
"I'm looking forward to some great competition and getting back to playing some intense basketball," he said.
There will be an officials' meeting immediately following the manager's meeting Sunday. Krone said anyone was welcome.
If teams can't make the Sunday meeting, late sign-ups will be after 2 p.m. next Wednesday at Robinson. Regular season play will begin Jan. 31 at Robinson.
"We don't have any requirements for officials other than the willingness to learn and work hard," he said. "Also, some people think that if they official, they can't play. That's not true. You can do both."
Men focus on Bears after break By Brent Wasko sports@kansan.com KANSAS TENNIS
Southwest Missouri State may not be the toughest opponent on the Kansas men's tennis team schedule this spring, but a victory against the Bears this afternoon in Lawrence would be a big step in the right direction for the Jayhawks.
After losing their home opener the last two seasons, the Jayhawks has plenty of motivation to take on the Bears at 5 p.m. today at the Alvamar Tennis Club.
"Last year, Louisville played a great match and upset us here," said Kansas coach Mark Riley. "I let the team know that we haven't won a home opener in two years, so I'm sure they'll be ready to go."
Riley said the Bears also should be ready to face the Jayhawks.
"Anytime someone from our region plays Kansas, there is an opportunity for them to beat a quality opponent," he said. "Other teams are always their best when they play us."
Kansas is heading into its match-up with the Bears after a successful fall season. The team racked up a 65-47 singles record and a 25-18 doubles record. Kansas sophomore Quentin Blakeney said one of the Jayhawks' setbacks was their lack of practice time coming back from winter break.
"I would rather play this match on a Saturday or something so I would have had a full week of practice," Blakeney said. "We haven't been together for that long, so I think Coach is pushing us a little harder this week."
"Everyone is in the same situation," Riley said. "It's going to be like when you go to watch Kansas basketball exhibition games. People won't concentrate as well as they will two weeks from now. We are going to get the most out this that we can after preparing for just a week."
The Jayhawks have had just five practices since reconvening last Monday, but Riley said he didn't believe it would cause too much of a problem.
"They have two or three really good players, but they shouldn't be as deep as we are," he said. "Southwest Missouri State is going to be a challenge for us early. We know that if we play hard, we can be successful. If we ever get too arrogant, though, or think we're better than we really are, we've got problems."
Riley said Southwest Missouri was not exactly an easy opponent for Kansas.
With stronger opponents looming on the horizon, Kansas junior Ed Dus said the team could use a win against the Bears. The Jayhawks will go on the road to battle Louisville, Minnesota and Middle Tennessee State next weekend.
"We definitely want to win this match so we can take this momentum into the following week," Dus said. "We're focused. A lot of the guys on this team are young, and for some this is going to be their first match."

COLUMBUS, Ohio — George Reese scored 19 points off the bench, and No. 13 Ohio State overcame heavy foul trouble, beating No. 10 Michigan State 78-67 Thursday night and ending the Spartans' Big Ten winning streak at 21 games.
Michigan State (12-5 overall, 3-1 Big Ten) hadn't lost in the conference since the Big Ten opener a year ago, winning the last 15 regular-season games and the conference tournament. The streak was the fourth-longest in Big Ten history.
Five teams now have one loss in the wide-open Big Ten race, and two more teams are just a game back.
The victory was sweet for Ohio State (12-3, 4-1), which had lost 10 straight to Michigan State. The Spartans had won a school-record eight straight Big Ten road games.
Reese, a starter earlier in the season and now the sixth man, hit 8-of-13 shots. Scoonie Penn added 16 points, Brian Brown and Michael Redd each had 14 and Ken Johnson, the nation's leading shot-blocker, had four blocks and eight points.
Morris Peterson scored 20 points, Andre Hutson 14, A.J. Granger 11 and Mateen Cleaves 10 for Michigan State. Charlie Bell, the Cleats' No. 2 scorer at 12.8 a game, made only one basket and finished with six points.
Reese's free throw with 12:06 left in the first half broke a 15-15 tie and Ohio State led thereafter, building margins to 13 points in the second half.
Michigan State got as close as 71-65 with 211 left after a 6-0 run capped by Cleaves' free throw.
