It had excitement. It had end-to-end action. The cross-state rivals for forcing Japan into the war But in the end, according to Coach Marian Washington, it was the officials that decided the game. The Jayhawks dropped a 83-74 decision to the Kansas State Wildcats in Allen Field House last night, giving the Jayhawks their third straight loss. "The officiating was crucial," Washington said. "Unfortunately, the referees played a major role in the game. They were incredible." Kansas went into last night's game hoping to break its losing streak and knock off K-State, who won the Big Eight championship two weeks ago. And at the start, it looked as if the Jawhaws could pull it off. They led 10-4 after five minutes of play, but the Wildcats scored 14 of the next 15 points to build a lead that they never relinquished. Tammy Romstad was the big gun for the Wildcats in the first half, leading K-State to a 4431 lead at intermission. It was the third shot by 8 shooting. Erin Scherbe added eight. Crisp Stewart, who had been averaging only 5.5 points a game, scored 12 points in the first half to lead the team. Scott's performance added 11 points and eight rebounds. "We blew the game at the end of the first half," said guard Angie Snider, who shot a dismal 2 of 10 from the field in the first half." We were down by two, 32,30, and the next thing you knew it was halftime and were down by 13." 9:03 left in the game. But the Jayhawks could not grab the lead. K-State scored 14 of the next 16 points, seven from the foul line. Kansas came out fired up in the second half and chipped away at the "We knew we could come back in the second half and the intensity picked up," Washington said. "We wanted to keep the ball out of Romstad's hands and we did a good job of that in the game." Piscillia (Gary really nicked them up). All Gary did in the second half was go six of seven from the field and five of six from the field to 17 for points. She scored just two points in the first half. Claxton, KU's All-America candidate, once again led the Jayhawks with 23 points and 15 rebounds. Stewart had 16, Snider 12 and Shyra Holden, who said played her best game this season, had 10 points and nine rebounds. "I am very proud of our team ball," Washington said. "We played a veteran team tonight and we played them touch." "The season has been frustrating for us because we want to do well in what is supposed to be a rebuilding year," Snider said. The game was played before a sparse but boisterous crowd of 1,100. And although women's basketball is not supposed to be the crowd pleaser that men's is, those 1,100 in the stands last night might not agree.
