Jayhawks want to end losing streak
By Sarah Warren sports@kansan.com

The Kansas volleyball team hopes that tonight will be the skid snapper.
The Jayhawks will take on the Oklahoma Sooners at 7 p.m. in the Horesi Family Athletic Center in a match that, for the winner, will end a five-game losing streak while sending the loser into a six-skid game.

The Jayhawks are 11-7, 2-7 in the Big 12 Conference, while the Sooners stand 6-11, 1-8. Both teams have dropped their last five matches and are looking for a turn-around win.
The Jayhawks have won the last four matches against the Sooners, the last win coming at home in five games. However, Oklahoma leads the all-time series with Kansas 37-14, and the two teams are tied at 4-4 since the formation of the Big 12.
both teams' last win came against Iowa State, which still stands winless in the conference.
"I'm sure they're wanting to get on track and get some things turned around," coach Ray Bechard said. "This match is very important to both of us."
Nancy Bell, senior outside hitter,

In preparation for the physicality of this game, Bechard made sure his team used this past weekend — its first weekend off this season — to rest and recuperate after 18 matches so far. However, the team's weekend off meant no volleyball game would be presented before Late Night with Roy Williams, as it has been in the past
conference team to play in the middle of the season and on a Friday night," Bechard said. "And we needed a couple of days off. We really encouraged them to rest up and get reenergized."

Along with rejuvenated players, Beachard said he hoped tonight could mark the beginning of a new season for the Jayhawks.
"It's really difficult to find a non-
"Even though this match finishes our first half of the conference, we're looking at this as a start for a new season," he said. "We're hoping this will be a turnaround."
Bell agreed.
"I think we have a great opportunity," Bell said. "If we play well to come away with a win."
