Kate Scott had a happy homecoming last night. The Oklahoma senior captain and Overland Park native played 11 minutes, one short of a season high, in the Oklahoma 61-49 win over Kansas in Allen Fieldhouse. Scott said having about 50 friends and family members in attendance for her trip to Lawrence was a fun experience.
"I was really excited. It's my senior year, and I got to play here my sophomore year, but I knew I'd get to finish up at home," Scott said. "I had a great crowd come out to see me.It's really fun when you get a chance to give back to what people have given you your whole life."
"It's really fun when you get a chance to give back to what people have given you your whole life."
Although Scott, who averages 1 point per game, was held scoreless, she was happy to see her team

improve to 12-5 overall and 3-1 in the Big 12 Conference.
One of the most prominent members of the Scott cheering section was her father, Mark Scott.
"I'm just so proud," Mark said about his daughter who was firstteam Academic All-Big 12 as a junior. "To go from a walk-on to
caption of the team and accomplishing everything she dreamed of doing — it's just great."
Kate's parents met while attending Oklahoma, but that's not the only reason Mark is glad to see his daughter in a Sooner uniform.
"That was one of the rules," said Mark, whose other daughter Alysa also attended Oklahoma. "They had to go away to college so they could grow up."
Kate's mother, Megan Scott, said living in Jayhawk country hasn't been too difficult on the family.

"A lot of her friends went to KU," Megan said. "They all wore brown to come to the game because we told them they couldn't wear KU colors. I think we've converted most of our friends, at least as far as women's basketball is concerned."

MANHATTAN—On the road against Colorado, Kansas State couldn't make free throws. At Kansas, they had trouble making field goals.
K-State victorious at home
The Associated Press
Kansas State dominated inside and held Nebraska to 31 percent shooting from the floor to cruise past the Huskers 77-53 Wednesday night.
But against Nebraska yesterday, things were a lot different.
It was the ninth straight win at home for the Wildcats, and came after two straight losses on the road.
It was the 12th time this season Kansas State (11-6, 2-2) held an opponent under 40 percent.
"Here, we have our crowd," guard Jarrett Hart said. "We have our sixth man. Sure, we made some mistakes. But we played through it."
Despite Nebraska's four post players over 6-foot-8, the Wildcats had no trouble scoring in the paint.
scored 18 points and forward Pervis Pasco had 15 points and 13 rebounds — his sixth double-double of the season — to help the Wildcats outscore the Huskers 32-18 inside.
Forward Matt Siebrandt
"Matt got off to a good start," Kansas State coach Jim Wooldridge said. "Then Pervis' opportunity came. He was active inside for us. His rebounding kept us alive."
Siebrandt, who was 8-of-9 from the field, scored the first four points of the second half, part of a 16-6 Wildcat run to open the period that put Kansas State ahead 49-34 with 13:55 remaining.
Kansas State put Nebraska away with a late 8-0 run, capped by Gilson DeJesus' jumper that made it 73-50 with 4:38 to play.
"We knew we had the potential to blow them away," forward Marques Hayden said. "The first half was shaky, but we were finally able to play some good basketball."
The Cornhuskers (9-8, 1-3 Big 12) are now 0-3 in road games this season.
Nebraska hasn't won in Manhattan since 1994.
DeJesus had 17 points and Jarrett Hart added 13 for Kansas State.
"We certainly felt we could play better defensively than that," Nebraska coach Barry Collier said. "They were the aggressors tonight."
Nate Johnson led Nebraska with 13 points, and Jason Dourisseau had 11.
After trailing by as many as nine in the first half, Nebraska cut Kansas State's lead to 29-28 with 2:01 remaining in the period.
But DeJesus made a free throw and Hart hit a 3-pointer at the buzzer to give Kansas State a 33-28 halftime lead.
BASEBALL
Rose could rejoin big leagues, if he admits to gambling on sports
NEW YORK — The baseball commissioner's top deputy met with Pete Rose and his business agent in Florida last month, part of negotiations that could lead to the reinstatement of the sport's career hits leader.
Bob DuPuy, baseball's president and chief operating officer, traveled to Fort Lauderdale, Fla., to speak with Rose and his business agent, Warren Greene, on Dec. 16.
Baseball officials have said that for there to be an agreement, Rose must admit he bet on baseball, an accusation he has repeatedly denied.
Rose agreed to a lifetime ban from baseball in 1989 following an investigation of his gambling.
