Though senior night is over, McIntosh and Boyd may not have played their final game in Allen Fieldhouse. The Jayhawks have a legitimate chance of being selected for the WNIT, in which case the opening game would most likely be played in Lawrence.

Senior Taylor McIntosh, junior Ivana Catic and sophomore Kelly Kohn were all honored for their work in the classroom.
Kansas State led all Big 12 schools with eight selections, seven on the first team and one on the second. The second team requires a GPA of 3.0-3.2.
The Big 12 announced its Academic all-conference teams on Wednesday and three Jayhawks were named to the first team, which requires a GPA of 3.2 or better.
On senior night, senior forward Jamie Boyd made her second start of the season and sixth of her career, while sophomore guard LaChelda Jacobs made her first start of the year and also sixth of her career.
Coach Bonnie Henrickson decided to shake up her starting line-up for the last regular season game of the year.
THE STARTING LINE
HEAD OF THE CLASS
Jayhawk fans stayed in the stands after the final buzzer for a presentation to each player at half court. Coach Bonnie Henrickson greeted the players with a framed jersey, cheerleaders tossed roses and every player came out to thank McIntosh and Boyd.
Purple power was in full effect as the Wildcat faithful filled nearly half the Fieldhouse. The Kansas State fans erupted after every good play from their team - of which there were more than a few - and seemed to eliminate any home court advantage for Kansas.
BASKETBALL (CONTINUED FROM 10B)
Jacobs got the nod ahead of junior guard Ivana Catic and that's the first time all season Catic's come off the bench. As a result, sophomore guard Sade Morris was the only Jayhawk to start all 29 regular season games.
Seniors Taylor McIntosh and Jamie Boyd were honored before and after Wednesday night's game for their four-year contributions to Kansas basketball.
The game may have been played in Allen Fieldhouse, but at times it felt more like Bramlette Coliseum East.
