What's the craziest thing that's happened at your apartment?
ELLY GRIMM egrimm@kansan.com
KAARIN HOOGSTRATEN Kansas City sophomore "The first week we lived there there was this bad storm and the power went out so everyone went and hung out outside."
ZACH REBARCHEK Bonner Springs senior "We have people tear down our lights every Friday."
JEROME GOSCHA Salina junior "There's a beer bong that starts and goes down from the 3rd floor of our building."
DALLAS WILLIAMS Marion senior "Property destruction began by parking space issues."
JOSEPH RAMIREZ Kansas City junior "All of the crazy parties that go on."
EMILY LAVENDER Overland Park sophomore "People like to walk into our apartment randomly. People have just randomly come in and caused trouble."
caping the binds of the WNIT.
Ultimately, Zenger's decision will come down to what he expects from the second team in Allen Fieldhouse.
The injury to Davis put Kansas to the test. The Jayhawks haven't responded and now need to win some tough games to have a shot at making the Big Dance.
If he's satisfied with WNIT runs and just-under-.500 conference records, he knows he can get that with Henrickson.
If Zenger wants to make Kansas women's basketball a perennial NCAA Tournament team, one that can compete for a conference title every once in a while, he might be watching these last few games of the season with a careful eye.
Kansas has all the resources to compete on a national scale in women's basketball. We'll soon see if Zenger thinks Henrickson is capable of taking the program to another level.

"We were just trying to stay as a team and stay positive with everything that has happened," sophomore forward Tania Jackson said.
Kansas gave up an 11-2 Missouri run and trailed 15 points at halftime. In the second half, the Jayhawks gained momentum and brought the game within three points with under one minute left. But Missouri's Christine Flores hit two free throws to capture the Tigers' first conference victory of the season.
Kansas worked in practice on defending perimeter shooters, but gave up open looks to the Missouri guards, who hit seven of 12 shots from three point range and six of eight in the first
Harper in for junior guard Monica Engelman. Engelman was benched for the second time this season for a lack of productivity, according to Henrickson. The Jayhawks were out of rhythm and quickly fell behind 8-0 after two Missouri three pointers.
Junior guard Angel Goodrich finished with 13 points and nine assists, but was disappointed with seven turnovers.
"You can lose, but you have to go out there and give it your all." Goodrich said. "The second half, yes, but the first half we didn't do any of it. That dug us a hole."
Senior forward Aishah Sutherland led the Jayhawks with 23 points. After starting just two of seven from the field in the first half, Sutherland hit eight of 10 shots in the second half to rally the Jayhawks. Defensively, she took on Flores, the biggest challenge, who finished the game with 24 points.

Kansas has four games left in the season and they need three victories to end their 12-season NCAA Tournament drought.

"This is going to hurt us a lot," Goodrich said. "I feel like we can still finish strong and the only ones who can stop us are ourselves."
