Confident senior setter relaxes KU volleyball team with trivia
By JAN BOUTTE Sports Writer
As the volleyball team prepares for practice, Shelly Fox begins her daily trivia contest.
"What was the name of Roy Rogers'?
The answer comes quickly, but
Fox's."
"What about Dale Evans' horse?" The squad jogs along in silence for awhile. "Okay then, who can hum the theme from 'Family Affair?'."
Fox, a 5-foot-2 senior setter, works hard to keep the team relaxed. As one of two seniors on the squad, the younger players look to Fox for leadership.
IN THE MIDST of a complex spiking drill. Fox stands at center net, facing her team with an open hand raised as if waving hello—a picture of relaxed confidence. The play begins and three spikers converge on Fox as she calmly directs the ball into perfect position for them to send to rocketing over the net.
Fox, who will be setting the ball for
her four year at Kansas, has good reason to be confident in her skills. She was named the top server at an elite Super Camp held at Pepperdine Fox, appearing confident is another important aspect being a good leader.
"By seeing that I'm confident, that's one less thing for my teammates to worry about on the court. They need to know that they are in my ability but in theirs." Fox said.
The on-court leadership that stems from the setter's quarterback role of calling plays follows Fox off the court. Her younger teammates look to her to organize their morning a2.5 mile cross-country races, clear their jersey numbers through her.
COACH BOB LOCKWOOD said that having Fox on the team was like being assisted by a veteran coach. Fox plans to make a career of coaching and has put in much time helping Lockwood run summer volleyball camps.
Fox, a Kersey, Colo., native, said she
was expected to work in the
psychology department when
she graduated.
physical education degree. She was awarded the Earl Falkenstein Award as outstanding junior in the physical department by the faculty last year.
Fox acted please about Lockwood's comments, but said, "Don't make me a mistake."
As the team prepares for its first matches this weekend in Tulsa, Fox faces a week that proved critical to her season last year. Three days before the season opener, she suffered a serious ankle strain. But Fox fought back and was able to play a major part of the season.
Playing with pain was nothing new to Fox, who has ignored the pain of an arthritic hip for most of her athletic years.
FOX SHRUGGED the pain, saying, "The pain of playing was nothing compared to the mental pain not playing."
Fox considers the high point of her Jayhawk years to be trips to Colorado, where she plays before her hometown fans.
Kansas City rained out; Yankees win
By United Press International
CHICAGO—Rudy May snapped a personal seven-game losing streak with a five-hitter yesterday in pitching the Chicago Sox 5-1 triumph over the Chicago White Sox.
The Kansas City Royals game, rained out in Toronto, won't be made up unless necessary. The teams are not scheduled to face each other the season. If a makeup is necessary, the game will be played Oct. 5 in Toronto.
THE YANKEES jumped to a quick lead off loser Dennis Lamp, 5-2, by scoring three runs in the first inning.
Larry Milbourne singled to left and took second when Oscar Gamble grounded out. Reggie Jackson then singled in Barrine and Netties sliced a triple into the bottom to score Jackson. Dave Winfield followed with a bunt single to score Nettles.
Milbourne opened the third with a single and stole second. Two outs later, Lamp walked Nettles and Winfield to load the bases. Dave Reverting then grounded sharply to first baseman Mike Squires behind first base, but Lamp dropped the throw to first, allowing two runs to score.
Almon leading off the sixth. Ron LeFlore drew a walk and both runners advanced when pinch hitter Lamar Johnson grounded out. Carlton Fisk then hit a sacrifice fly for Chicago's lone run.
May, 5-8, gave up singles in the first and second innings, then retired 11 in a single.
