'Hawks can't close door on victories
In tight contests, softball team seems 'scared' to succeed
By Jenni Carlson Kansan sportswriter
It's hard for Kansas softball coach Gayle Luede to say that the Jayhawks are scared to win.
"But sometimes it seems like that," she said. "We get in a position to beat a great ball team, and we play a little more conservatively. We need to play to win."
Kansas' tentative play late in games hurt the team Friday and Saturday. Playing in the Oklahoma State Spring Classic in Stillwater, Okla., the Jayhawks fell to No. 9 Oklahoma, 5-1, and Oklahoma State, 11-3.
Kansas won two games, defeating Wichita State 2-0 and Southwest Missouri State 6-5 in eight innings.
SOFTBALL
Against the Sooners, the game was knotted, 1-1, going into the top of the seventh inning. Oklahoma scored four runs in its half of the frame off Kansas starting senior pitcher Beth Robinson.
"We really wanted to win that game so that we could get back in the polls," Kansas sophomore catcher Kristina Johnson said of falling out of the National Softball Coaches Association/USA Today poll. "We let them win. They were our mistakes that let them in the game."
Against the Cowgirls, Kansas trailed by just two runs, 5-3, after five innings despite several Jayhawks playing out of position
because first baseman Jacque Wenger was ill. Again the opponent had a big inning as Oklahoma State scored six runs in the sixth.
"Right now it seems like we have one bad inning that really puts us in a hole," Luedeke said. "I think we're still young, and we're learning how to play consistently and be very competitive through seven innings. Defense, offense, all of it has to be there through seven innings."
Kansas sophomore outfielder Julie True said the team didn't hit as well as it had in past tournaments. And the Jayhawks can't depend solely on their pitching staff.
"It would be silly to think that they could go out and let the other team score no runs." True said.
But having a combined effort from the pitching, offense and defense will become increasingly important as Kansas heads in to Big
12 Conference play.
Softball is the only sport which has begun play in the new conference. The rest of the teams will join the Big 12 on June 1.
Luedek said the Jayhawks were finished with their non-conference schedule for the most part. They will face several area opponents — including Wichita State, at 2 and 4 p.m. Thursday, and Creighton and Southwest Missouri State — but the focus will be on conference play.
"We're shifting gears now," Luedek said. "We are trying to get prepared to get into a tough conference schedule."
That will include games against No. 10 Nebraska, perennial powers Texas Tech and Texas A&M, and rematches with Oklahoma and Oklahoma State. However, Kansas is optimistic about being able to finish in the top four.
