'Hawks find able shortstop
Freshman makes the adjustment to collegiate play
By Matt Doyle Kansan sportswriter
All-American Christy Arterburn, along with AllAmerican third baseman Camille Spitaleri, left a void on the left side of the infield that concerned Haack.
Kansas softball coach Kalum Haack knew entering this season that he had a big hole to fill at shortstop.
"The players we lost are players you can't just replace, "Haack said.
Haack, though, has found a replacement for Arterburn in freshman Katie Morgan.
Morgan is third on the team in hitting with a .292 batting average and is second in hits and runs scored for the N-13 ranked Jayhawks.
The Jayhawks return to action today against Nebraska at 1 p.m. at Jayhawk Field. The series concludes tomorrow at 11 a.m. at Jayhawk Field. Haack thought that Morgan would
eventually be a good player, but thought that she would make some mistakes to learn from as she went through her freshman season.
Morgan had a .308 batting average in 13 games last fall. She said the games in the fall benefited her in adjusting to softball on the collegiate level, specifically in hitting the different types of pitching seen in collegiate softball as compared to high school softball.
"Katie has really adapted to the hitting much quicker than I thought she would," he said.
"There are stronger pitchers on the college level, pitchers who can throw breaking pitches," she said. "To be a good hitter on this level is to watch the ball."
The area that has been the biggest adjustment from softball at Bishop Kelley High School in Tulsa, Okla., to softball at Kansas for Morgan is her defense.
"I was not use to covering so many different spots on the field in so many different situations," she said. "In high school, I just used my instincts on defense."
Haack believes that Morgan is better at this point in her freshman season than she predecessor, Arterburn, was.
"Katie has 13 errors, and Christy had 40 errors in her freshman season, so Kate is much better defensively," Haack said. "Hopefully, Katie will get better in her career like Kristy did."

The combination of dueling bass player with a relentless, loud hyn�nic suspiril all tipped off with a sense of sarcasm has made Cop Shoot Cop one of the most critically acclaimed bands to break out of the underground. By replacing guitars with samplers, "CSC makes something new out of alternative rock's most caustic ingredients," claims the NY Times
England's The Beloued made their international chart debut in 1898 "The Sun Rising" became an underground favorite in the U.S. The next year "Hellu" was a top five alternate dance smash "CONSCIENCE" with its house-oriented sound is The Beloued's strongest album to date, featuring "Celebrate Your Life" and "Sweet Harmonium."
