Injuries plague Kansas softball
By Matt Irwin
Special to the Kansan
Kansas softball coach Kalum Haack said he knew how Kansas football coach Glen Mason felt last season when several of his starters could not play because of injuries.
"One of the reasons we're 6-1 is that we've been decimated with injuries," Haack said. "The backup players are playing hard. They just don't have quite the experience."
Haack said that one of the major obstacles the team would face tomorrow against Tulsa and Sunday against University of Missouri — Kansas City at Jayhawk Field was having two of the team's top four hitters injured. Haack said that the Jayhawks' problem is compounded by the fact that their hitting is not up to their standards.
"We're just trying to get some consistency, and we're really concentrating on hitting," Haack said.
The team did not score a run during the three games it lost at the Texas A&M Invitational March 4-6.
The number of injuries has forced players to play out of position, which could have put added pressure on senior pitcher Stephan Williams.
"The first time people were playing out of position, I felt pressure." Williams said. "Since then I don't feel any pressure."
The Jayhawks' No.11 ranking in the National Softball Coaches Association poll would cause Tulsa and UMKC to play with more intensity this weekend, Haack said.
"Every time we play a really good team, our intensity goes up," Haack said. Haack said that he had to remind his players that when they played an unranked team such as Tulsa or UMKC that team would do the same.
If the Jayhawks continue to slump they could fall out of the poll.
"If we start coming out and playing ball like we're capable of, the polls will take of themselves." Haack said.
The polls are not the Jayhawks biggest concern, however. Haack said that the team must finish in the top four in its region to get an opportunity to play in the College World Series. The Jayhawks are currently second in the region to Oklahoma State.
But to get to the World Series, Williams said, the team needs to focus on the present.
"There is no way we can think of that with a record of 6-4. Williams said.
The Jayhawks also must adjust to the majority of newcomers on the team. Williams said the team was beginning to make adjustments.
"I feel we're coming together real well as a team." Williams said.
With only five returning players, the Jayhawks received a high preseason ranking.
"A lot of it has to do with our reputation, and a lot of it has to do with having Stephanii Williams," Haack said.
Williams is one of two seniors and is an All-American candidate. Williams holds four Kansas softball records including most career shutouts, career strikeouts, single-season victories and single-season shutouts. Williams pitched all but six of the team's games in 1993.
The Jayhawks benefit from the fact that Williams can pitch most of the games, because their other pitcher, sophomore Beth Robinson, has a herniated disk.
"It'll be tough on our spring break trip," Haack said. "She can't pitch them all."
The Jayhawks will play four teams ranked in the top 15 during the trip, including Cal State-Northridge, ranked third, and Florida State, ranked fifth.
Kansas sophomore outfielder Charlene Reyes prepares for a catch during practice. The Jayhawks will face Tulsa tomorrow and UMKC on Sunday at Jayhawk Field.
