Andrea Hudy's gym doesn't have.comment cards.
Hudy has to look a foot and a half skyward to the basketball players who hover over her, but once she starts the workout there is no doubt who is in charge.
"Coach Hudy, she doesn't play in the weight room," sophomore forward Darnell Jackson said. "When you go in there, you're going to come out sweating."
That intensity is exactly what the coaches are looking for out of Hudy, who is in charge of strength and conditioning for the men's and women's basketball teams. She is able to get every ounce of energy out of the athletes, and she has a plan for those who don't buy into the system as well.
Players who are caught not giving their all must return at 6 the next morning and get on the Stairmaster for as many as 400 floors, the equivalent of walking the stairs to the top of the Empire State Building. Twice.

According to a police report, officers arrived at Abe and Jake's Landing, Sixth and New Hampshire streets, about 12:40 a.m. and observed a man coming out of the club holding a towel over his head.
While the officers assisted the injured man, another man was being taken out of the club by two patrons of the bar. The man being assisted was screaming obscenities, became aggressive with officers and had to be detained.
The officers' primary concern was to break up the fights and get victims medical attention."

Chris Yates woke up at 5 a.m. Monday, not to start studying, but to line up at Spangles restaurant, 3420 W. Sixth St.
Yates, Wichita sophomore, along with a couple of friends, packed a tent, a grill and some hot dogs. The group finished setting up camp shortly after 5:30 a.m. and plans to continue waiting until it gets the Spangles coupon booklet.
Josh Allford, Wichita freshman, talks on the phone while waiting in the new Spangles parking lot, 3420 W. Sixth St., Monday afternoon. Allford, along with more than 100 other people camped out for their opportunity to receive free Spangles food for a year at the grand opening early this morning.
"We got everything we need right here and we're going to wait it out," he said. "They have the best breakfast food in the world."
As part of the promotion for its Lawrence grand opening, Spangles spread the word that it would give the first 100 people in line a coupon booklet for one free meal a week for a year.
"We planned on getting here around 8, thinking people wouldn't show up until some time after that," Rene Steven, director of operations for Spangles, said. "We had people out here as early as 3:50 a.m."
"The food is really good," he said. "That's why we've been out here so long."
Rachel Seymour/KANSAN
Ben Broddle, Wichita junior said Spangles built a good reputation in Wichita and that made his decision to camp out easy.
Customers registered inside and had to remain at the location until the store opened this morning to receive the coupons. Spangles conducted random roll calls to determine if people on the list were still there.

Golf-ball sized bail from Sunday night's storm caused damage to vehicles as well as buildings on campus.

Hail storm causes damage power outages
Lawrence left powerless

KANSAN STAPT WRITTER
A hail storm Sunday night left two-thirds of Lawrence temporarily without power. The storm's effects caused damage to both University and individual property.
Karla Olsen, Westar Energy spokeswoman, said that all of Lawrence's power had been restored. The outages were caused by a piece of equipment that fell on a main transmission line, setting off a chain reaction that affected other breakers.
Olsen said 21,500 of Westar's customers were without power, including people who lived in some residence and scholarship halls. About 19,300 outages were restored within the hour. The other 2,200 without power had it restored within three hours, she said.
The loss of power on campus set back the publication of The University Daily Kansan's Monday issue.
Jonathan Kealing, editor of the Kansan, said that a small crew from the newspaper had to make some quick decisions when Stauffer-Flint Hall, where the Kansan's offices are located, lost electricity between 11:30 and 11:40 p.m.
He said that the building had damage to skylights and windows but that the damage was assumed to be over when the storm
A crew of seven Kansan staff members hauled three computers to a conference room of the Lawrence Journal-World, where the Kansan is printed, to set up and prioritize what would be in the paper, scrapping stories as the paper was cut from 16 pages to 10 pages and setting up page designs. The paper wasn't submitted until after 3 a.m., well after the normal 1 a.m. deadline.
ended. The storm was over when the newer outages occurred.
The storm caused damage to temporary roofs that had been installed in buildings throughout campus after the March 12 microburst, said Mike Krings, University Relations spokesman. This caused minor leaks in campus buildings. Strong Hall's roof was hit particularly hard, sustaining damage from 2-inch halftones. Blake Hall and Robinson Center also sustained hail damage.
Krings said a power outage at the Computer Center east of Robinson caused computer problems throughout campus, including the Internet being down in some buildings Monday morning.
Krings said some vehicles were damaged. He said the University would not have a damage estimate in the next few days because it was hard to separate the damage from this storm and the damage from the microburst, which had been estimated at more than $6 million and was still being assessed.
In Douglas County, damage counts and costs were not taken for the hail storm, said Paula Phillips, director of Douglas County Emergency Management.
WEATHER
"I know there's damage out there, but nothing significant," she said.
Phillips said that because most of the damage was to individual property, like cars and windows, much of it wasn't reported.
