THURSDAY,MAY9,2002 --- RAINED OUT The Kansas baseball team's scheduled game against Rockhurst was canceled after severe thunderstorms hit Lawrence last night. Kansas will start a three-game set with Oklahoma Friday. The Sooners (29-20, 11-10) have won five in a row, including sweeping a three-game series against Kansas State last weekend. The Jaynawks (21-24 overall, 4-16 in Big 12 Conference play) will not make up the game, and will now close out the season with six Big 12 Conference games during the next two weekends. Friday's 7 p.m. game will be "Quarter Dog Day" at Hoglund Ballpark, where hot dogs will be sold for 25 cents each while supplies last. Ryan Wood SPORTS GOLF the top 10 finishers will get to compete at the NCAA finals, which will be held at Ohio State University starting May 29th. The top two individual golfers not on a qualifying team will get to compete at the finals as well. CONTINUED FROM PAGE 12A The team heads to the tournament led by its rising star, junior Chris Marshall, whose 4-under par, final round score of 68 at the Big 12 Tournament shot him up to a 13th-place overall finish. Also competing at regionals for the Jayahwaks will be seniors Casey Harbour and Travis Hurst, as well as sophomore Tyler Hall. The fifth spot for the tournament will be filled by either freshman Andrew Price or freshman Kevin Ward. The decision will be made early next week. "It probably won't hurt us, but it's a disappointing seed," Marshall said. "With the way we played at the Big 12 championships, we saw it coming, so we're just going to have to work a little harder now. We want to gain the respect we know we deserve, but we have to play the game that we know how to at the same time." The team will tee off at 12:45 p.m. Thursday. Unlike in other tournaments this year, which involved playing 36 holes on the first day and holding the final round on the second day, the team will play one round each afternoon. Live scores during the tournament will be available on www.golfstat.com. Contact Greene at rgreene@kansan.com. This story was edited by Andy Gassaway.

BUDIG According to Jane Jankowski, NCAA assistant director for public relations, the NCAA president is responsible for managing the headquarters in Indianapolis, which is staffed by 300 employees. The president also oversees the rules committees and the 87 different N C A A national championships. "He is enormously qualified for the job because of his experience dealing with intercollegiate athletics at a high level. He is an intelligent and responsible individual." Bob Frederick Former Kansas Athletic Director "The search committee is charged with casting a wide net for a uniquely qualified and diverse pool of candidates," Lawless said. "Our process also will stress the confidentiality of candidates to assure that we can attract the most qualified individuals possible." Lawless would not say whether Budig was being considered as a candidate for the job. Budig served as president of Illinois State University and then West Virginia University before moving to Lawrence in 1981. During his 13 years at Kansas, Budig oversaw an increase in the number of distinguished professorships and successful completion of the University's capital fund-raising campaign, Campaign Kansas. The Lied Center, Anschutz Science Library, the Adams Alumni Center, the Dole Center, Dykes Library and the KU Regents Center all were added to campus during Budig's tenure. As a token of appreciation for Budig's efforts to renovate Hoch Auditorium, which burned down, the graduating class of 1997 gave the bronze of the University seal that is located in the garden in front of Budig Hall. As president of the American League, Budig wasn't as popular. He was criticized for his soft handling of Roberto Alomar after the second baseman spit in the face of umpire John Hirschbeck in the 1996 playoffs. He also rubbed people the wrong way for not attending many games, even during the playoffs. Budig currently lives in Princeton, N.J., where he teaches a course called "The Business of Sport and the Public Interest." Contact Wasko at bwasko@kansan.com. This story was edited by Molly Gise.
