'Hawks set for home opener
Team finishes California trip to face UMKC
By Mark Button
Kansan sportswriter
The Kansas softball team will hold its home open today, playing host to Missouri-Kansas City in a double-header.
The Jayhawks, ranked 13th, will try to improve their 9-5 record. The first game is scheduled to start at 2 p.m. at Jayhawk Field.
The team completed a tour of Southern California on Sunday, posting a 4-3-1 record for the trip.
Coach Kalum Haack said the team was ready to get home and play on its own field.
"I am anxious to get some games under our belts." Haack said.
"It's tough playing on the road for an entire month."
Haack said the women needed to play with more competitive fire if they hoped to come away with two victories against UMKC. The team experienced fatigue during the second half of the California trip.
"If we play the way we played the second half of the road trip, they (UMK) will have the opportunity to beat us." Haack said. "If we play like we did in the first half, we'll be all right."
Kansas' West Coast road swing began in Fullerton, Calif., with a match up against No. 12 Massachusetts. Kansas defeated the Minutewomen 7-0. Junior pitcher
Stephani Williams picked up the victory, moving her consecutive scoreless innings streak to 31%.
The team moved up the West Coast to play a doubleheader against DePaul in Northridge, Calif.
In the first game, the Blue Demons fell to the Jayhawks, 8-0. Williams remained razor sharp as she collected her first no hitter of the season.
However, DePaul found its hitting stroke in the second game as Kansas came up on the short end of a 4-3 game.
Kansas then played No. 7 California State Northridge in what Haack said was the Jayhawks' peak performance of the road swing. At the end of the 15th inning, the two teams were knotted at 1-1. The game was called because of darkness.
Kansas then went back to Fullerton to take part in the Pony Invitational Tournament.
The Hawks began the tournament much like they started the road trip by
defeating a tough California State
Fullerton team 3-0.
Haack said the team had begun to feel the repercussions of being on the road after the California State Fullerton game.
"As the week went on, we became tired," he said. "I even became tired just coaching."
Kansas battled through its weariness, handing Western Illinois a 7-6 defeat. But Haack's squad dropped its final two games, losing to Washington, 4-2, and Texas A&M, 3-1.
Senior left fielder Ty Saxby said that the team needed to increase its intensity level as Big Eight Conference play neared. 2
"We need to stay focused and concentrate for the entire time we're on the field," she said. "Hopefully the (UMKC) games will get us back on track for Big Eight play."
Kansas will begin conference play Saturday when it travels to Oklahoma.
