The Kansas volleyball team's five-
game losing battle with Kansas State
Wednesday left the team without
energy to play Oklahoma Saturday.
"We executed well tonight but just didn't play with the energy and intensity that we did against K-State on Wednesday," said Kansas volleyball coach Karen Schonewise.
Kansas also had the task of trying to stop the Sooners' outside hitting duo of Melissa Peterson and Patrice Arrington.
Arrington and Peterson finished with a match-high 19 kills and had hitting percentages above .400. The Sooners had a .419 hitting percentage. Kansas finished with a .205 hitting percentage.
The Sooners led all three games, switching their offensive scheme several times to throw off Kansas.
"We struggled a little bit with our defense and then setted in," Schoensew said. "Then toward the end of the second game, they started tipping some in, and
that kind of threw us off since they had been hitting the ball so hard."
Against the Sooners, outside hitter Moira Donovan finished with a teamhigh 13 kills, and settler Laura Rohde led the Jayhawks with 44 assists.
"Our skills were all right tonight," middle blocker Amanda Reves said. "We just didn’t have the intensity we had against Kansas State."
Next weekend, the Jayhawks begin a crucial part of their schedule with matches at Nebraska and Colorado. The following weekend, they will play at Texas and Texas A&M. All four teams are ranked in the Top 25.
