Women's golf aims for higher finish
By John Domoney
Kansan sportswriter
The last time the Kansas women's golftheam was scheduled to venture up to the Big Ten Conference, their tournament was canceled.
After missing out on the Sept. 15-16 tournament at Michigan State in the wake of the terrorist attacks, the Jayhawks will give it a second shot today as they begin play in the Women's Collegiate Shootout in Franklin, Ind.
For Kansas head coach Nicole Hollingsworth, it is a homecoming as she returns to her home state where she starred on the golf team at Indiana University.
Atter finishing last in the 12-team field in the fall of 1999, the Jayhawks mustered a 14th-place finish in a 15-team field in last fall's tournament.
"I'll get to see my parents and my sister," Hollingsworth said. "Going back to the Legends is nice because we played there a lot when I was a student-athlete."
The Jayhawks haven't fared well in the Women's Collegiate Shootout.
Hollingsworth thought this year's team would have a better chance to compete for a higher finish in the tournament.
"I feel that we're a really good team, we just have to figure out how to do it." Hollingsworth said.
The Jayhawks are coming off of their appearance last week in the Big 12 Invitational in Stillwater, Okla., where they weren't able to shoot the scores
they believe they're capable of carding.
caution.
Although Hollingsworth said she was pleased with the play of her team, Kansas finished 14th among the 16 teams that competed in the tournament.

"I thought we did fine," Hollingsworth said. "We'd never beaten Missouri or Nebraska, and when you beat somebody it's a step in the right direction."
For the Jayhawks to succeed in playing rounds today and tomorrow, they must tame The Legends of Indiana Golf Course.
That doesn't bother most Kansas golfers after playing the rigorous Karsten Creek Golf Course at the Big 12 Invitational.
Along with Bawanan, Kansas will be led by juniors Tiffany Kruggel, Jill MacDonald, Heather Rose, and Kristy Straub.
"Indiana is a little easier course than we played last time, and I'm confident we can shoot good scores there," sophomore Jennifer Bawanan said. "Three out of our five players have played it already."
Hollingsworth said she thought that the key to the team's success was shooting scores that they're capable of executing.
"I just hope we go to the tournament and shoot team rounds of 300 or 305," Hollingsworth said. "We need four or five players to shoot in the seventies everyday."

"Your success is totally based on confidence and self-image."
"We went down there definitely as the team to beat, and we came back with our tails between our legs," junior Chris Marshall said. "It was a shock and a wake-up call."
As the Kansas men's golf team reaches the midway point of its fall schedule, the Jayhawks aren't too impressed with how their season has progressed.

The lahawks are pointing to this tournament because although the crucial part of their schedule doesn't begin until the spring, Kansas can't afford to make a habit of finishing tournaments in the middle of the pack.
today's opening rounds will also see Kansas feature a change in its starting lineup. Freshman Kevin Ward will make his first appearance in a tournament for the lashawks.
"Your success is totally based on confidence and self image," Randall said. "It only takes one good round or a good nine holes to get confidence back."

"We're really excited to go to Missouri because it's a great track and easily scorable," Marshall said. "It's not critical but it's very important for us and our egos."
Senior Casey Harbour has been moved out of the starting five, but he will still compete in today's tournament.
Along with Ward, the lineup will include senior Travis Hurst, junior Chris Marshall, sophomore Tyler Hall and redshirt freshman Andrew Price.
Randall said he hoped his players could break out of their slump and regain the confidence he fears some of them lost in the wake of the team's poor play.
