The Jayhawks' next match will be against Nebraska at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow in Lincoln, Neb.
Kansas has a habit of starting off slowly. The Jayhawks were down 11-3 in the first game of the first match before coming back to beat the Cyclones 15-13.
Iowa State was one of the quickest teams Kansas has played. KU head coach Frankie Albizt said after the match. Defensively, the Cyclones were constantly moving and controlling the ball.
Middle blocker Tammy Hill said the Cyclones' blocking kept Kansas from scoring points.
"Blocking was one of their strong points," she said. "They blocked a lot of hits that usually go down for us."
Iowa State took over in the second
Albizt said the Jayhawks were trying to hit safely and keep their shots in bounds. They went down the middle too often, however, and were blocked by the Cyclones.

The Jayhawks bounced back for the third and fourth games, winning both with scores of 15-9.
"It feels good to come from behind," said outside hitter Shannon Ridgeway. "Hitting, digs — little things started happening. It was a good team effort."
Cyclone outside hitter Linda Evans said Iowa State did not up to its potential against Kansas. She said the team had not been playing well in its last few matches.
Evans is the Cyclones' leading hitter this season both defensively and offensively with 125 dies and 136 kills

"I thought we missed too many of their servers." she said.

"Beating Iowa State was pretty exciting for the girls so they might have let down a little," Albizt said.
Albitz also said she was using different line-ups to rotate players. Switching players in the line-up allows some of the younger players to get experience.

two-run homer in the ninth inning won Saturday's game for the Mets, led off with a line single over short
Wally Backman, whose bunt single had contributed to Saturday's victory, then tried to beat out another bunt, but Scott gloved it with a diving stop and threw Backman out at first. Scott then bore down and retired Keith Hernandez on a grounder to second and got Gary Carter on a fly to center, which ended the game.
Ashby staked the Astros to a 2-0 lead in the second when he drilled a 3-2 pitch into the left-field bullpen. Glenn Davis opened the inning with a single and, after Fernandez struck out the two batters, Ashby connected. Ashby, a switch-hitter, hit only seven home runs this season — just two as a right-handed batter.

Such was the Mets's futility against Scott that they did not manage a hit through four innings. The only vestige of offense came in the fourth when they placed a runner on second base.
Backman reached first with one out when Scott was called for obstruction after forcing the seeder to man to run out of the baseline.

Softball season cut short by rain

The Kansas softball team had its season cut short when rain caused the cancellation of the last tournament scheduled for the fall.
The Jayhawks finished their fall season with a record of 9-6.
Kansas was playing at the Oklahoma State Invitational tournament Friday and Saturday at Stillwater, Okla. The Jayhawks had a tournament record of 2-1 and were ready to play the last rounds of single elimination. Kansas was set to play Texas &M when the tournament was called because of rain.
Eight teams were competing at the tournament. The teams were divided into two pools of four teams each. Friday, each pool played a round robin.
The Jayhawks lost their first game Friday to Iowa State 2.0, Reenie Powell, back after minor surgery, was the losing pitcher.
Kansas came back in the second game and beat Oklahoma State 3-2 with Sherri Mach pitching.
Shortstop Chere Wickham and second baseman Kim Doyle each hit RB1 doubles. First baseman Laura Cramer also hit a double which brought in the game-winning run.
Texas-Austin also fell victim to Kansas, losing 1-0 after Kansas scored late in the last inning. Roanna Brazier, who had missed the last tournament with a pulled hamstring, was the winning pitcher and allowed only two hits in eight innings.
Texas A&M, who KU would have played next, was the runner-up in last year's National Collegiate Athletic Association's championship tournament. Other teams competing were Nebraska, Oklahoma State, Oklahoma City University and Southwest Missouri.
The tournament wrapped up the fall season for the Jayhawks. They will begin regular season play in the spring
