VOLLEYBALL
'Hawks lose again, this time to Bears
BY DREW DAVISON
The Kansas volleyball team could not muster any offense last night. The team fell to Baylor in three games.
Kansas had a negative hitting efficiency in the first two games, -.118 and -.034, and hit just .167 in the final game. For the match, it was a seasonlow .010.
"We keep getting back to that 'E' word: execution," coach Ray Bechard said.
He said the team had shown the effort, but at this point in the season, execution was more important than effort.
Baylor swept Kansas at the Ferrell Center in Waco, Texas by scores of 30-15, 30-18 and 30-24. With the loss, the Jayhawks, who have lost their last seven, fall to 10-16 overall and 3-14 Big 12, while the Bears improve to 18-12 and 6-11.
The Jayhawks swept the Bears earlier this season, but Kansas was shorthanded last night, because Emily Brown, junior right side hitter, did not play. Brown injured her foot on Monday during practice. She started all 86 previous games of her career matches at Kansas. Bechard said Brown was day-to-day and the team was hopeful she would be ready for Saturday's match against Missouri.
Brown, a team captain, has been the second-leading player in kills, behind Jana Correa, senior outside hitter. Correa, who has been the Jayhawks' offensive leader all season, could not get anything going against a stiff Baylor defense. She had six kills with 11 errors in the match.
The Jayhawks committed 26 errors
with just 27 kills. By comparison, the Bears had 11 errors with 45 kills. The Bears also out-blocked the Jayhawks, 10-2.
The Jayhawks have yet to win a conference game on the road this season. They have one opportunity left against Kansas State on Nov. 25. The Jayhawks defeated the Wildcats earlier this season in Lawrence.
Baylor used a six-point run to take an 11-6 advantage during the first game. The Jayhawks committed a team-high 11 errors with just seven kills, and the Bears ran away with the first game by 15. In game two, the Bears went on an eight-point run to lead Kansas 22-10. Baylor stayed on a roll as they took the game by 12. The Bears had a match-high 467 hitting efficiency with 17 kills and three errors.
Down by two games, Kansas did not give up in game three. Trailing by seven, 21-14, the Jayhawks battled
back to a two-point deficit, 25-23. Baylor, though, was too much to handle for Kansas late in the game. Baylor won by six.
Although the team has struggled, Bechard said the team should be motivated for the final three matches against Missouri (15-11, 9-8), Nebraska (24-1, 16-1) and Kansas State (10-17, 2-15).
"Playing at Kansas, I can't think of three teams you'd rather face," he said.
The Jayhawks take on the Tigers at 7 p.m. Saturday in the Horejsi Family Athletics Center. Kansas and Missouri are currently tied, 4-4, in the 2006-07 Border Showdown, which spans all sports.
