BASKETBALL
Former Kansas basketball coach Roy Williams is looking forward to coaching Nick Collison again on the USA men's senior national basketball team.
Collison, coach to meet again
"I'm excited for Nick," Williams said. "I know he has loved his association with USA basketball in the past."
Collison has played on eight USA basketball squads.
"His loyalty to USA basketball and his successful play has earned him this opportunity," said Williams, who is one of the assistant coaches for the USA squad.
Former Kansas coach Larry Brown will coach the USA team. His other assistants will be San Antonio Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich and recently hired Clemson University head coach, Oliver Purnell.
Nick Collison said it was a great honor for him as a college athlete to play and practice with the best players in the NBA.
Collison was an alternate on the 2002 USA World Championship Team. He was also part of the 2000 USA Basketball Select Team that practiced against the USA.
"I personally will enjoy working with him again," Williams said.

Marian Washington receives Lifetime Achievement Award
Kansas women's basketball coach Marian Washington will be one of three coaches to receive a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Black Coaches Association this year.
Washington
Washington, who is 551-347 in 30 seasons as the Jayhawks' coach, has said she will return for her 31st year at Kansas next season.
"This is a wonderful honor and it will be a very exciting and emotional evening," Washington said. "I am thankful for the support and encouragement of my family and friends, those who have worked with me, the many great players I have been privileged to coach and, of course, the University of Kansas."
Washington has won seven conference titles and six conference tournaments at Kansas, and has twice been the Black Coaches Association's coach of the year. But her teams have struggled the past three seasons, finishing
below.500 each year and winning only eight of 48 Big 12 Conference games.
Former Winston-Salem State coach Clarence "Big House" Gaines and former Grambling football coach Eddie Robinson will also receive the award at a ceremony Saturday.

'Hawks advance to nationals

Eleven Jayhawks advanced to the 2003 NCAA Track and Field Championships based on their performances in the Midwest Regional Championships, held Friday and Saturday in Lincoln, Neb.
The top five finishers in each individual event and the top three relay teams per event automatically advanced to the championships. Ten of the 11 athletes qualified on the final day of competition Only senior Mark Menefee qualified on Friday.
The Kansas men had four qualifiers.
Menefee qualified Friday by placing third in the 5000m run.
Jeremy Mims, sophomore, finished second in the 800m, the fourth best finish in Kansas history.
Benaud Shirley, senior, finished fifth in the triple jump.
Leo Bookman, junior, placed third in the 200m.
"I'm happy because I have an opportunity to win again," said Bookman, who won the indoor competition in February. "I had a good indoor season, and now I have a chance to redeem my outdoor."
Seven women qualified for the championships.
Laura Lavoie, junior, finished fourth in the 1500m.
Abby Emsick, freshman, finished second in the discus. Emsick's throw was a school record and qualified her for the 2003 USA Outdoor Championships and the 2004 Olympic trials.
Sondra Rauterkus, sophomore, took third in the high jump and tied the third-best mark in outdoor school history.
The women's 4x400m team — Robbie Harriford, senior; Stacy Keller, junior; Shameika McField, senior, and Kim Clark, sophomore — clocked a school-record time of 3:34.81 to place third overall and earned the trip to nationals.
The championships will be held June 11-14 in Sacramento, Calif.
