Basketball made Marian's way
BY BRIAN SNYDER
T the title of KU women's basketball head coach might be a misoner for Marian Washington.
The voice of KU women's athletics — calling for equal support from the University and Lawrence community — might be a better way to describe her.
It is Washington's 13th year as head coach of the women's basketball team, which has a record of 226-152. She not only has seen but also has been a driving force behind the growth of women's athletics since she arrived at the University of Kansas in 1972. And, according to her, there is much room for improvement in the women's athletics at KU.
Washington has strong beliefs about the acceptance, or lack of acceptance, of women's sports. The cause, she says, stems from society's ideas of the roles men and women should play in athletics and life.
Washington was born and raised in the conservative town of West Chester, Penn., about 30 miles south of Philadelphia. She said her father, Goldie, instilled her with sound principles.
"It itened around understanding the value of hard work and appreciating quality and not substituting quantity for quality," she said. "He was a self-employed man and did everything he had to do to make a living."
She admits that she prefers to keep her private life just that, private. The brief insight she gives reveals a proud mother, a person with varied interests and a member of a close family.
Goldie died in 1971. Her mother, Marian, still lives in West Chester. It was her mother, Washington said, who brought the sensitivity into the family.
Members of her family come to Lawrence occasionally. Washington said, but distance has made keeping
up with them difficult
The small-farm atmosphere of her childhood didn't make her oblivious to problems found in the inner-city or to racism, she said, but she just wasn't exposed to them. Financially, times weren't always the best and life wasn't always easy.
However, distance couldn't prevent her family from being as emotionally close as possible.
Her family was so concentrated on working together and growing up that they didn't have time to worry about such problems.
Washington was the only child in her immediate family to graduate from high school and be involved in athletics, but she said there wasn't necessarily a correlation between the two.
"I think (graduating) was because of the grace of God," Washington said. "I was driven and there were things I wanted to do. Even with a lot of obstacles, it happened, thank God.
"Athletics did play a major part in my life. Had it not been for an arena that I could identify with — that made me feel like I could and would be judged by what I did and not what I looked like or how much money I had — I don't know what I would've done."
In high school, Washington found such an arena. She competed in seven sports. She has played handball and basketball on the international level.
At West Chester State, Washington earned her degree in physical education and health in 1970. While she studied for her master's degree in biodynamics and administration at the University of Missouri at Kansas City and at KU, she played Amateur Athletic Union basketball. She earned her master's degree in 1975.
Washington's daughter, Josie, is a 1984 KU graduate and has an administrative job with RCA Corp. in
