She also is facing the challenge of teaching the novice rowers, keeping them intense and allowing them to have fun at the same time. "I want them to be fast, and I want them to love rowing," she said. "I'm not guaranteeing any championships this year for the novice. I think every athlete loves their sport, and that makes them good at it. I want them to have a good time so they'll come back." 1. 一角 2. 百分 3. 十分 4. 百分 Six variability rowers on this year's team were Odell's teammates in 1994. Since her main job is working with the freshmen, there haven't been any problems. "They're not in a position where they're going to be cut, so it's not a problem to coach them. They have more contact with Rob than with me," she said. Odell is glad to be a Jayhawk again, and after rowing on the club team when the rowers had to pay their own way to regattas, she is happy to be a part of the first Kansas women's varsity rowing program. "I think it's pretty incredible," she said. "I paid for rowing the whole time I was here. It's nice to know you can have awesome athletes, and if they can't afford it, you can still have them there to compete at competitions." October 15 is the Jayhawks' first regatta, and that is also the day Odell hopes to understand why coaches become coaches. "Come race day, I think it's going to be a lot different standing on the sidelines," Odell said.

By Jason Strait Kansan sportswriter Creighton, in its seventh season, has a new coach this year. The transition might provide the Jayhawks some vulnerable spots to attack, "Both games are going to be good challenges for us as far as having to play some more established competition," Walker said. "Teams we have played the last two weeks have all been new programs, so getting back on the map and playing two teams that have been around is going to be a good challenge for us."

"We're looking to exploit some of their weakness. I don't think they're going to be as organized, so we're going to look for those holes." The Jayhawks will try to use one advantage they have against both Nebraska schools — four players on Kansas' roster are from Nebraska and are familiar with players on both teams. Kansas sophomore midfielder Audra Henderson and freshman midfielder Heidi Taggart have played with many of the players on both teams and said the Jayhawks must step up their intensity against the Nebraska schools.

Hopefully, they will, too." Walker didn't seem too concerned with Nebraska's physical style, however. "I think we've got players who can hang with anybody," Walker said.
