The Kansas Jayhawks awoke this morning to find themselves in possession of the Big Six basketball championship for the first time since the present conference was formed four years ago. This was brought about by the defeat of the Washington Spiders by the Kansas State Wildcats, last night at Lincoln, by the score of 32 to 19.
Nebraska, which has been the chief obstacle in the path of the Jayhawkers in the season, held a rally on Monday that called for the conference trophy until their defeat last night, which leaves Kansas with the title even though it should be over.
The present race for the position of the Big Ten championship has been contested. The conference underdogs. After the de of Kansas by Nebraska along in midfall of the season, the race appaired. It was then that if Kansas could defeat the Carnegie era in the meeting at Lincoln La., it would be from Lincee if it won.
Lowly Teams Win
However, the lowly teams run and snort both of the contenders. sir proved the stumbling block for the Bayhawks as they decided to Oklahrama. Then the Jayhawks went into a tie for the lead game on the Cornhusker game on the Cornhusker game.
The tie was soon broken when Iowa State upset the Nebraska and virtually eliminated them from the race. The victory came on the last court, while Kansas was winning the Aggies 40 to 26 the next night in Lawrence. The Jawaharwicks further defeated the Iowa State with a chance at the title when they broke through the Iowa State defense late in the contest to win a 27 to 16 victory. Audriani court last Monday night.
With only one more game on their conference schedule the Jawahersu championship, even though they dropped their last game and Nebraska won both of their two remaining contests. However, Nebraska kept in their possession against Agnes had night, thus handing the conference championship to Kansas.
Nebraska, which was the chief conferral apache in Kansas until about a decade ago, can now get to go going in their last four start seasons. They are then eliminated themselves for two years. They are now tied for second place with the Angels, having won five games on Wednesday.
The Agents victory gives Kansas its first Big Six basketball championship. Oklahoma won the pennant the first time they had a conference and Missouri took the honor last year by defeating Kansas in the final game of the season, breaking the record.
Although this is the first basketball championship for Kansas in the Big Six, it won more than its share back of the old Missouri Valley conference.
During Coach F. C. "Phog" Allen's regiment as head coach of the Jayhawk backcourt, he has won nine out of eleven wins, and he just won his first Big Six title. In this string of victories is a record of six straight Missouri Valley conference wins, and he now coach of the Oklahoma A & M team, was captain and ending in 1927. From 1925, when the team was named Big Six, the team won 34 consecutive victories in conference play, a record for the last 1925 by the University of Oklahoma, the team won 34 consecutive victories in conference play.
With the winning of another conference championship Doctor Allen has again proven that he is a master of his craft and one of its greatest coaches.
