Jayhawks ease by Jackrabbits
By GREG DAMMAN Sports Editor

Kansas coach Larry Brown wanted to make one thing perfectly clear after his team defeated NCAA Division II South Dakota State 87-12 in a closer-than-expected game.
Brown stressed that his team didn't enter the game thinking that it would be a cake
"I don't think we took 'em lightly," he said. "I think it was more their preparation. They excelled."
The Jackrabbits executed to the tune of a 43-41 lead with 15 minutes, 23 seconds left in the game, and trailed 69-66 with 5:15 left to play.
BUT RON KELOGG, who led Kansas with a career-high 24 points, helped the Jayhawks put the game away by scoring eight points in the next three and a half minutes.
Kansas opened up an B3-70 lead in that span, and left the Jackrabbits in the dust.
"We got ahead by four a couple of times and then they'd have a spurt and catch back up." Kellog said. "Thank God the time ran out on us."
--greg Dreiling, Kansas center, knocks down a scoring attempt by Arvis Young, South Dakota State forward. The Jayhawks pulled away from the Jackrabbits towards the end of last night's game at Allen Field House and won 85-72.
Kansas opened the game in a full-court press, but it failed to rattle South Dakota State. The Jackrabbits had several uncontested layups on long passes against the press.
Brown said the press was "not very good. We got confused. They were just standing and letting us double-team them. It gives us something to talk about."
BROWN SAID THAT the Jahyawks played selfishly in the first half and failed to get the ball inside. South Dakota State outbounded Kansas 18-15 in the first half.
"They blocked out well." Brown said.
The dragged out well, which a big kid took
care of, was a natural defense.
Dreiling finished the game with 12 points and 12 rebounds.
Kansas led 39-35 at halftime on the strength of 15-of-16 shooting from the tree-throw line. South Dakota State shot only two free throws in the first half. The Jayhawks shot 52 percent from the field and 83 percent from the line.
Brown said that he told his players after the game that he was proud of the way they played, although he wasn't happy with their first-half performance.
CALVIN THOMPSON, whose sizzling shooting kept the Jayhawks ahead in the first half, finished the half with 16 points, hitting five-of-six shots from the field and six-of-six from the free-throw line.
"I had a hot hand in the first half and my teammates were getting me the ball," Thompson said. "In the second half the ball was being thrown, everyone was shooting the ball well."
Thompson, who didn't start, finished with 22 points, six rebounds and three assists. He was eight-of-13 from the field and six-of-six from the line.
"He's going to be moving in and playing more and more," Brown said. "He's starting to play better. He's made some sacrifices."
CEDRIC HUNTER finished the game with 13 points and five assists. Danny Manning had ten points, six rebounds, three steals and led the team in assists with six.
"It bothered me the whole game," Kellogg said. "But I got a second wind in the second half. I knew sooner or later we were going to break the game away."
Brown said that his team looked tired and that Kellogg was slowed somewhat by a cold.
The Jackrabbits were led by Bob Ladenouce, who scored 14 points and had eight rebounds. Mark Schultz and Paul Sentieri added ten points each for South Dakota State.
"We came into the game expecting to do well." South Dakota State coach Gene Zulak said. "We approached the game like any other game."
Ladouceur said that the Allen Field House crowd, estimated at 12,300, did not have an emergency plan.
"KANSAS HAS A great crowd" he said.
"They are very vocal and they did a good job of numbing us as well as the KU team."
Kansas' next game is Saturday against Abilene Christian.

Clutch shot by Myers seals women's victory

Before her team's game last night with Creighton, head men's basketball coach Marion Washington said the Bluejays would be no pushover. She was right.
Kansas pulled out a 68-67 victory over the previously unbeaten Blueyears last night at Allen Field House with a last-second shot by Mary Myers. The basket marker the eighth lead chance of the second half and sued for 14 points, 16-point performance by the senior guard.
KU, now 4-1, started the game well and opened up a 22-7 lead with 12 minutes left in the first half. Creighton chipped away with six and eight point runs, and pulled to within three with one minute, 55 seconds left in the half. KU led 35-30 at the half.
Creighton didn't let the Jayhawks enjoy their halftime lead for very long. After junior forward Vickie Adkins'kins with one minute gone in the second half, KU didn't score again for nearly five minutes. Led by junior guard Connie Yori, Creighton scored 12 unanswered points and took the lead at 42:37.
CREIGHTON HELD the lead until freshman guard Lisa Dougherty hit a 16-foot jump
Yori, who was the high scorer in the game with 30 points, gave Creighton the lead again with a three-footer from the lane with 6:22 left. She kept the Bluejays in the game in the last five minutes with three layups and two outside shots.
Two free throws by freshman guard Sherri Stoecker gave KU a three-point lead with 25 seconds. Creighton guard Tanya Warren made it 66-65 with a layup at the 20-second mark. The Bluejays immediately called a time-out.
KU brought the ball in with 19 seconds left, but Yori stole the ball and layed it in with 13 seconds left to give Creighton the lead. The Javhawks then called a time-out.
WITH 11 SECONDS left in the game, the Jayhawks brought the ball down the court in search of the game-winning basket. Washington said after the game that she told her players to try and get the ball to Myers or Adkins.
Adkins, who finished the game with 15 points, had the ball at the top corner of the lane with five seconds left, but was quickly
picked up by a Creighton defender. She dished the ball out to Myers, who was open along the baseline.
players took a couple of dribbles, put up a stick and connected for the game-window backs
"All I was thinking was that we needed a bucket to win." Myers said. "After it left my hand, I knew it would go in. If Vickie didn't take the shot, I knew I would."
Myers, who led all players with nine assists, said the Jayhawks let up a bit in the first half and let Creighton catch up, but every game is a learning experience.
"WE HAVE A LOT of young players." Myers said. "They learned tonight that just because we have a big lead, it doesn't mean they were going to win." Creighton on our books and didn't let up.
"But it was a good win for us, a hard fought win. We really had to fight to win the ball game and that is a sign of a winner. With women, every game is a learning experience.
Yori said Creighton's start had a big effect on its second-half comeback, because head coach Bruce Rasmussen asked his team to make the momentum and carry it through the game.
"I thought we out-hustled them," Yori said. "We played a good thinking game as well. We did a good job tonight, but I am not happy playing them again in two weeks in Omaha."
Although each and every basket proved to be crucial to the game's outcome, Yori said it really was a one-shot game.
"We both played well, but sometimes it comes down to that last shot," Yori said. "Sometimes they go and sometimes they hit a hook, or you hit the whole game, but she put it in and they won."
The Jayhawks travel to Kansas City, Mo. Friday and Saturday to play in the Wendy's Tournament hosted by the University of Missouri-Kansas City.
