Kansas escapes Creighton with close victory in hand
Staff and wire reports
VIVIENNE
OMAHA, Neb. — Kansas extended its streak of season-opening victories to five in a 63-59 win yesterday when the Creighton Lady Jays went cold from the free-throw line.
The Jayhawks made 15 of 20 free throws in the first half while struggling from the field. Creighton made just six of its first 24 shots from the field but went into half-time tied 29-29.
"They got to the free-throw line in the first half, and we had to do some things to not make it quite so easy on them the second half," said Kansas coach Marian Washington. "We didn't shoot as well as we can, and we weren't as aggressive as we should be. But we're playing with some very young players right now."
Raymant, who fouled out with 49 seconds left, led all scorers with 21 points. She made eight of 12 field goals, including three three-point shots and both of her free throws, pacing the Jayhawks. Lynn Pride scored 15 points and had a game-high 12 rebounds.
After halftime, Kansas only made four of nine free-throw attempts and missed their final four in the last three minutes.
Creighton entered the final stretch trailing 56-55, but a three-point basket by Suzi Raymant and a pair of free throws by Nakia Sanford helped the Jayhawks extend their lead to 61-57.

44 seconds. But three-point
attempts by Corey Sweeney and
Jessica Leix both missed. Pride
then sealed the victory with her
third free throw of the game.
"We felt like we should have won that game," Creighton coach Connie Yori said. "Of the first three games we play, we felt like this was the one we needed to get. But Kansas made some free throws and shots in the last three minutes, and we didn't."

Creighton's Carrie Welle recorded 16 points for the Lady Jays, while Nikki Keller put in 13. Kansas kept Welle in check during the first half, allowing Creighton's leading scorer just four points in the first 20 minutes of play.
Jaclyn Johnson joined fellow freshman Jennifer Jackson in the Jayhawks' starting lineup, replacing the team's only senior, Koya Scott. Johnson scored eight points but fouled out with just under three minutes to play.
In an unusual schedule twist, the Jayhawks will face the Athletes in Action in an exhibition game at 7:05 p.m. tomorrow in Allen Field House before resuming regular season play on Nov. 26 against Penn State in Happy Valley, Pa.
After the Jayhawks committed 24 turnovers in their first exhibition game, Washington said she was impressed with her team's ability to take care of the ball.
