Kansas men's basketball coaches are taking recruiting efforts inside the homes of high school prospects.
While Jeff Boschee, a 6-foot-1 guard from Valley City High School in North Dakota, already verbally committed to Kansas, most recruits probably will wait until the late signing period to choose.
Players wishing to commit during the early signing period can sign let.
ters of intent starting the second week of November. The late signing period starts the second week of April.
Kansas coaches will visit Michael Miller, a 6-foot-8 power forward from Mitchell High School in South Dakota, on Wednesday, said Mitchell coach Gary Munson.
Schools that have visited Miller already include Kentucky and Arizona. Miller will be visited by UCLA coaches on Tuesday night.
Tomorrow Miller will visit Florida, and watch the 3. Gators football
team play No. 4 Tennessee.
"As far as I know, Kansas will be the last school to make an in-home visit," Munson said. "He'll probably narrow the list of candidates to five schools before making any official visits. He probably won't make a decision on one school or another until November."
Other schools interested in Miller
are Nebraska, Utah and Wake Forest
Another recruit being pursued by Kansas is Quentin Richardson, a 6-foot-5 shooting guard/small forward from Whitney Young High School in Chicago.
Richardson's coach, George Stanton, said the recruit will attend "Late Night With Roy Williams" on Oct 17.
"He hasn't decided whether he'll
commit early or late because he wants to be sure about what school he chooses." Stanton said. "Lately he's been talking a lot about Kansas, Colorado, Kentucky, Arizona and DePaul, but that could always change."
Other schools interested are Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota, Marquette, Notre Dame, Virginia and Syracuse.
Joel Pryzbilla, a 7-foot-1 center from Monticello High School in Minnesota, also is being recruited by Kansas. Pryzbilla will attend "Late Night" Monticello boys basketball coach Max LaVelle said.
LaVelle said Minnesota is the front runner. Other schools interested include Arizona, UCLA, Indiana, Kentucky and Wake Forest.
Sororities team up to spike violence
By Monica Hodes Special to the Kansan
The University of Kansas and Baker University chapters of the
Alpha Chi Omega sorority will team up to sponsor a sand volleyball tournament tomorrow.
This is the sec:
Care Services center in Lawrence.
ond year the chapters have combined their efforts in the "Spiking Out Domestic Violence" tournament. Teams from fraternities and sororites at both schools will compete. The money generated will be donated to the Women's Transitional
The center arranges support groups, places endangered women in safe living environments, assists with court cases, and provides community education about domestic violence.
"A lot of sororites and fraternities will donate cash, household items, or anything it would take for a house to run," said Elizabeth Baptiste, children's program director. "We're very grateful for these because that's how our center is run."
The philanthropic effort started as an indoor volleyball tournament. Last year, the sorority moved it to the sand volleyball courts at Robinson Center and added Baker as a co-
sponsor.
"We had hosted our own philanthropy before, but there wasn't a lot of participation because Baker is so small," said Jamie Gossard, the Alpha Chi Omega philanthropy chairwoman at Baker.
Gossard said Baker could make a big difference by joining with Kansas.
Jamie Hughes, philanthropy chairwoman for the KU chapter of the sorority, agreed.
"We thought it was a great idea since Baker is only a half-hour away and not many of us knew them," she said.
After last year's tournament, each chapter donated $1,000 - earned from
entry fees, donations and T-shirt sales - to the women's center.
This year's tournament will start at 9 a.m. and run until mid-afternoon. Each team is guaranteed to play at least two games.
"We hope to increase our donation this year and get as many teams involved as we possibly can," said Hughes. "The women's center has always been so grateful and we want to help them even more."
Gossard said the women at Baker were excited to work with their KU counterparts.
"It's fun for us to get to know the Alpha Chis at another school and to see the differences between a big and a small school," she said.
