they lost in the regional quarterfinals to Louisiana State University.
Participation in fall club sports provides experienced players with an opportunity to hone their skills at a competitive level in preparation for the spring season.
"I played last fall and in one tournament this fall," said Julian Ryba-White, Manhattan junior. "It's a higher level of intensity; a different level."
Fall club seasons culminate in sectional, regional, and national tournaments in November before the college season gets underway in the spring.
For the rest of the 'Zontals, the fall season provides a learning experience for players and a chance for team members to form a team bond before A and
B squads form in the spring.
The 'Zontals will play host to the traditional Fool's Fest Tournament this spring in Lawrence. The Fool's Fest attracts teams from Colorado, Iowa, Missouri and Nebraska as well as area foes such as the Kansas State Flying Dorothy's. The tournament is among the last tournaments before the South Regional tournament.
"We are banking on being the best team in the region," Davis said.
Teams in the South Regional tournament must compete for the top position to win a berth to the National Tournament.
The 'Zontals must advance past last years regional champion, LSU, as well as other traditional foes like Texas and Texas A&M.
Beyond hopes of regional championships, the team looks for a positive atmosphere.

"(Ourgoal) is to be friends off
Ryba-White got involved in ultimate through word-of-mouth from friends and welcomed the sport as a change of pace from high school and club soccer, which shares many of the same qualities as Ultimate through its running, teamwork and strategy.
The 'Zontals welcome anyone of any ability or experience to come out for the team. The first practice will take place this Thursday. Contact the team through its hotline at 843-7099 or by e-mail at julianrw@ku.edu for times and locations. For more information, check the HorrorZontals' Web site at www.zontals.org.

Mangino's task, multiplied 10-fold. Not many prized baseball prospects even consider Kansas. Price brings West Coast knowledge and contacts to the program, giving the Jayhawks an edge in recruiting that hasn't been present in the past. As for this spring, the Jayhawks have the bats, but not the arms. A lot of 10-9 losses await them.
I can't promise that you will always see eye-to-eye with me. In fact, I encourage you not to. My goal is to evoke emotion. I'll try to make you laugh. Or nod your head in agreement. Or shout a profanity. Or perhaps squeeze out a tear or two.
This column will challenge your thinking. It will present a fact-based point, with a little of me hidden within.
Who knows, maybe this could be your Omaha World-Herald.

NEW YORK — Former champion Lindsay Davenport, seeded fourth and playing her first Grand Slam match of the year, defeated Eva Dyrberg, at the U.S. Open yesterday.
The Associated Press
Coming back from knee surgery that kept her out of action until July, Davenport needed just 43 minutes to advance. She had three aces and 23 winners against Dyrberg.
For Davenport, it was a return to a comfortable environment. She won the Open in 1998
against Martina Hingis, lost the final to Venus Williams in 2000 and reached the semifinals in 1997 and 1999.
Davenport cruises in U.S. Open, Williams sisters prove tough
Davenport arrived at the Open with just four tournaments for the year after missing the Australian and French Opens and Wimbledon because of her surgery.
On the men's side, current French Open champion Albert Costa eliminated Magnus Norman and Michael Chang eliminated Francisco Clavet.
Costa, who went on his honeymoon after winning the French.
lost in the first round at Toronto and second round at Cincinnati after returning to the tour. The clay court specialist advanced against Norman, who is still trying to regain his form after hip surgery sidelined him for six months.
As the tournament began, just one player in the field has solved Venus Williams, who can match her blend of power and court coverage: Serena Williams.
Serena was set to make her Open debut last night against Corina Morariu while Venus sat
The sisters have taken over women's tennis and are the players to beat. Venus has won the year's final Grand Slam tournament twice in a row, while Serena has won the past two majors.
In 2002, Serena has beaten Venus three times, the same number as everyone else in the world combined. They have combined to win seven of the past 12 major titles and have met to decide three of the past four Grand Slam tournaments.
