Pride wants team unity on the road
The change to the up-tempo style has allowed Conradt Incorporate a talented crop of newcomers.
Continued from page 1B
Tracy Cook, Rashunda Johnson and Asha Hill, all freshmen, have earned their way into the Texas starting lineup. Dana Godfrey, a 6-foot freshman, also has gotten significant playing time off the bench.
The most positive effect of the wide-open style may be in the play of standout junior Edwina Brown.
"Every guard just loves to run," Brown said. "It frees you up and gives you room to do the things you like to do. You're free to see what you can come up with."
Judging from her season performance, what Brown likes to do is to dominate her opponents. During Big 12 conference games this season, the small forward has averaged 19.8 points, 7.8 rebounds and 6.2 assists per game.
Fortunately for the visiting Jayhawks, the Longhorns do have some weaknesses that can be exploited. They've struggled with inconsistent outside shooting, making only 43 percent for the season — the third worst in the Big 12.
However, Marian Washington, Kansas head coach, said she wasn't taking the Longhorns' youth for granted
"They do have two big players who post up big for them," she said. "Big in terms of height, one player is 6-foot-4, as well as size, and they'll go into her often."
The Jayhawks' talented front court should be able to take advantage of the Longhorns' inexnerience.
To build on their impressive home win Saturday against the then 6th-ranked Texas Tech, the Jayhawks (14-6, 4-3) have to do what only the Lady Raiders had been able to do consistently — win on the road.
"The road games are the hardest and the most important because we know we only have each other." said Lynn Pride, junior guard. "We know Texas will be tough, so we have to stick together."
Pride is doing her part. She was named Big 12 Player of the Week on Monday for the second time this month after averaging 18.6 points and 7 rebounds a game in last week's loss to Colorado and home victory over Texas Tech.
Kansas also will be out to prove
he deserves to be in the Top 25

after sneaking back into the Associated Press poll on Monday at the No. 24 spot.
Coach Washington said the team would concentrate on stopping the
Longhorns' fast-paced game plan.
"They are a much-improved team," she said. "They really push the ball up the court. Our defense is going to be absolutely key."
New assistant coach joins women's soccer team
By Chris Wristen
Kansan sportswriter
In an effort to reshape the women's soccer program, Kansas has chosen to follow the mold of an extremely successful program at the University of South Alabama — literally.
Just weeks after hiring new head coach Mark Francis, a second coach, Donna Holyman, has been hired from South Alabama.
Holyman, a Burlington, Ontario, native, worked as an assistant coach with Francis last year.
She will join assistant coach Ellen Obleman to form a coaching staff that is now searching for its final link, a goalie coach.
"I know how he coaches, so it will make the adjustment easier for the coaches and players," Holyman said.
Francis said he thought Holyman's experience as a player would be a valuable asset to the Jayhawks. She brings with her a successful playing career from the University of Hartford and the University of Colorado. During her final season,
Holyman led the Buffaloes in scoring, which included a two-goal performance in a 4-3 loss to Kansas on Sept.28,1997.
played at the highest level in the
"She's played at the nig
women's game," Francis said.
"She knows on and off the
field what it takes to win at
the level we're trying to get
to."
Immediately following graduation, Holyman joined the staff at South Alabama to begin her coaching career.
"I hope to become a head coach three to four years down the road, so right now I'm just trying to learn as much as I can. I've learned so much these past six months working for Mark," Hollyman said.
The positive experience with Francis, as well as the availability of resources that offer the potential to win, helped to draw her to Kansas.
Holyman: Was an assistant at South Alabama.
"Mark did an awesome job there with very minimal resources," Holyman said, referring to South Alabama. "Here, you've got everything you need to win."
Francis plans to give Hollyman a lot of hands-on experience right away. He said she would be involved in every aspect of the program, playing a significant role in the transformation of the Jayhawks.
"She will be involved in everything; recruiting, travel, on the field helping out with practice, money management and the budget," Francis said. "She has a great understanding of the game. She is a hard worker and is very organized in the office."
Holman has high hopes for the team, and she thinks that it will be competing for a top six finish in the Big 12 and a berth in the conference tournament next year.
She said she was looking forward to spring practice, where she would learn a lot about the team.
"They haven't played with us before, and we haven't seen them play before," Holyman said. "Everyone's starting fresh."
