Kansas volleyball blocked out of wins
By Laura Bokonkroger Kansan sportswriter
Jayhawks lose in 3 to Texas, Texas A&M
The right-side hitter for the Kansas volleyball team, Nancy Bell, said that the Jayhawks' biggest matches were yet to come.
"We need to beat a team that no one thinks we can beat," Bell said. "We have Iowa State and Missouri coming up, and I think those are important matches because we can definitely beat them."
After falling three games to none against both No. 16 Texas A&M Friday (15-0, 15-6 and 15-13) and No. 13 Texas Saturday (15-4, 15-3 and 15-7) Bell said that the Jayhawks needed
a breakthrough victory next weekend.
Although the Jayhawks have lost the last five conference matches, Bell said there was a light at the end of the tunnel.
"We've been through our hardest stretch of the season, facing five nationally ranked teams in a row," Bell said. "We all
hard workers, so it's not a lack of effort. It's maybe a lack of focus. We just need to learn from the losses and move on."
Bell said the most important lesson they learned last weekend was to be more aggressive.
The Jayhawks started slow, and
Coach Ray Bechard said that the Jayhawks showed improvements in the next two games, including a nailing-two point loss in game three.
the first game against Texas A&M finished quickly as the Aggies raced to a 15-0 win.
"In game one we did not step up to the plate," Bechard said. "In games two and three we showed improvement. However, we can't be a part-time team against someone like Texas A&M."
The match against the Texas Long-
horns Saturday wasn't any easier.
Although the Jayhawks held three-time All-American Demetria Sance to seven kills, eight less than her season average of 15 kills a match, two other Longhorns picked up the slack. Erin Aldrich and Katie Austin each collected 11 kills, leading the Longhorns to their sixth consecutive Big 12 Conference victory.
Autnough the Jayhawks have emerged 1-5 against Big 12 opponents, Bell said that winning the matches next weekend meant more than just a better record.
"Those would be big wins," Bell said. "They would get us out of the rut we're in."
Bell said the wins would push them closer to realizing their goal of finishing in the middle of the Big 12.
"We just need to work on our execution," Bell said. "We make too many tentative mistakes, and we need to be making aggressive mistakes. When we go up we have to hit the crap out of the ball. Our mistakes are usually stupid mistakes because we're tentative."
The Jayhawks face the Iowa State Cyclones at 7:30 Friday night at Allen Field House.
Expos retain Felipe Alou as manager
The Associated Press
MONTREAL — Felipe Alou, who seemed close to joining the Los Angeles Dodgers, is staying with the Montreal Expos.
He signed a three-year contract that will make him one of the highest-paid managers, the Expos said yesterday.
General manager Jim Beattie and Mark Routtenberg, a member of the Expos' ownership group, with Alou Saturday at his home in Florida.
The Dodgers were reported to have offered the 63-year-old manager a three-year contract worth between $3.5 million and $4 million.
Davey Johnson and Kevin Kennedy reportedly are the leading candidates to manage the Dodgers.
Alou, who has managed the Expos since 1992 and has spent 24 years in the organization, was ready to leave at the end of the season because he believed he was no longer wanted.
Dodgers general manager Kevin Malone spent three days in the Dominican Republic with Alou before returning Friday to Los Angeles.
"We expressed our interest in having him as manager and what we have to offer," Malone said. "A financial package was discussed and is available if he wants to come here."
The Dodgers said last week that interim manager Glenn Hoffman would be assigned to the coaching staff next year.
Alou became Montreal's winningest manager on Aug. 19 when he collected win No. 521, surpassing Buck Rodgers.
Alou has the fifth-longest tenure with the same club in the majors behind Minnesota's Tom Kelly (12 years), Atlanta's Bobby Cox (eight). Cleveland's Mike Hargrove (seven) and Milwaukee's Phil Garner (seven).
Kansas soccer loses one, ties one
The Jayhawks were stunned 3-0 by the University of Oklahoma yesterday after fighting Oklahoma State University to a 1-1 draw Friday.
NORMAN, Okla. — It was a weekend of upsets in the Big 12 Conference, and the Kansas soccer team was on the losing end of one of those upsets.
It was the Sooners' first Big 12 win.
"Given the team we have, we don't expect to win many games," said Bettina Fletcher. Oklahoma coach. "I know our team is capable of scoring goals, but we didn't expect to score three on a tough Kansas
defense."

The Jayhawks had six shots in the first half, none on goal.
Kansas coach Dan Magner said that he changed tactics in the second half, telling defender Sarah Korpi to attack more.
Kansan sportswriter
"We did create a few chances," Magner said. "We took risks, and it certainly opened up opportunities for them."
The best Jayhawk chances came on a cross-shot by midfielder Cynthia Dahle that hit the left post and a diving header by midfielder Dani DeGuerre that barely went over the crossbar.
"I would have been happier if it had gone in, but I just wanted to get my head to it," DeGuerre said.
Oklahoma added a goal in the 65th minute and another in the 80th minute.
Today the Jayhawks play Texas Tech in Norman.
The match could be do-or-die for the Jayhawks in their quest to qualify for the Big 12 tournament. The Jayhawks are in the middle of the pack with a 1-2-1 conference record, and a loss would hurt the team's chances of qualifying for the tournament.
"We can choose to do one of two things," Magner said. "We can choose to let this loss destroy us, or we can choose to let it go and move on."
Jayhawk qualifies for tennis competition
Kansas sophomore Micah Zomer won two matches on Saturday and advanced to the quarterfinals of the prequalifying draw at the Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) All-American Championships. Zomer is three wins from advancing to the qualifying event this week. He was scheduled to play Pablo Belagama of Clemson yesterday, but the results were not available.
Zomer now has a team-best record of 7-2 and leads the Jayhawks in total wins.
In the first round of prequalifying, Zomer cruised to a 6-4, 6-2 victory against Ted Misteia of East Central. In his second match of the day, Zomer earned a 6-1, 3-6, 6-1 victory against Nickl Brochu of Georgia State.
Several other Jayhawks were also in prequalifying action on Saturday,
