Elliott earned Big 12 Coach of the Meet at the Big 12 Championships last spring. Four of Elliot's divers competed in the NCAA Zone Meet and while none of them qualified for the NCAA Championship Meet, all had strong performances. Three of the four divers return this
season including senior Hannah McMacken, junior Meg Proehl, and sophomore Erin Mertz.
The Jayhawks look to capitalize on their fourth-place finish at the 2008 Big 12 Championships, a meet in which there were five team-records broken and one NCAA automatic qualifying swim from senior Danielle Herrmann.

Scott supports the Amethyst Initiative, an effort of college
Scott supports the Amethyst Initia presidents to open a thorough discussion on whether the 21 drinking age is appropriate. Drunk driving is unacceptable but has the drinking age helped or hurt? Scott thinks it's OK to ask.
