THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
QUOTE OF THE DAY
"We should have known we would be dancing."
Coach Bonnie Henrickson on their propensity for excitement this season.
FACT OF THE DAY
Kansas defeated Seizone Lombardia 110-25 for its second victory on the Italian tour.
TRIVIA OF THE DAY
Q: When was the last time Kansas made it to the Sweet 16?
A:1999
THE MORNING BREW Women's basketball like Sleeping Beauty
When the Kansas women's basketball team returned home from the NCAA
tournament, I sat down with Athletic Director Sheahon Zenger to talk about the progress of the program and the success of the team under the guidance of coach Bonnie Henrickson. After all, this was the team's first conference appearance since 2000.
He compared the season to a fairy tale, and as the Kansan's lead women's basketball reporter for two years, I felt like that was appropriate.
In retrospect, I would compare this season to Sleeping Beauty with a dash of Aishah Sutherland's "California cool" added in.
The team started the year with high expectations, but was surrounded with the pressure of previous seasons in which they did not live up to the hype. But despite the critics, the team breezed through non-conference play, finishing 13-1.
Still, the shadow of inconsistent conference play and season-ending injuries lingered overhead.
In the start of conference play, the Iav Hawks were victorious across the
Henrickson guided them past these challenges,working to protect her team and lead it to the tournament.
Big 12 kingdom with three-straight road wins and a 4-1 record. Suddenly, they were ranked second in the conference and their season looked bright.
But Kansas hit a snag when it lost three consecutive games to the ranked trio: Baylor, Oklahoma and Texas A&M.
However, they then returned home and picked up a win against Texas to complete their first season sweep.
After their victory, though, they traveled to Manhattan where the dark shadows were looming. This is where the team pricked its finger on the spindle and fell under the spell. Darkness fell over the Jayhawks' season as their captain and veteran forward Carolyn Davis suffered a season-ending knee injury.
The Jayhawks seemed lost. Kansas dropped five of the next
six games, and its tournament hopes seemed dormant.
But junior guard Angel Goodrich gave them the kiss that revived their post-season dreams. Their final conference game was at Oklahoma, and it appeared to be a must-win for the jayhawks. Goodrich valiantly led her troops, and they all returned to Lawrence victorious.
Things seemed to be looking up yet again when Kansas received a first round bye and a sixth seed in the Big 12 Tournament. But, when the draw came out, they were matched against the defending national champion, the Texas A&M Aggies. They lost the game and faced four long days before the selection show.
That night, they gathered in the castle - also known as Allen Fieldhouse - for a meal with family and friends as they awaited their post-season, NCAA fate.
After it was announced that Kansas would be making a tournament appearance, the room erupted in cheers. Finally, the Jayhawks had vanquished the foe that kept them out of the tournament for more than a decade.
At the banquet, Henrickson said that they should have known they would be dancing. They started the
season with summer training in Italy where they danced while waiting for boats and buses. They did "The Wobble" at Late Night with a hesistant coach. The season started smoothly and kept getting more exciting. When Davis was injured, the team wobbled, but they never fell. One long month later, they were dancing again.
The season was not perfect by any means, but it ended happily. Davis is recovering, and Goodrich will return. Henrickson will safely rule in her throne as queen with the team surrounding her. Their storybook may have closed on this season, but the Jayhawks are praticing, preparing for even greater adventures to come.
