Kemp, on her reaction to the second foul called against her in a home victory against Iowa State:
"Terrible. Even the fourth one was a horrible call. But credit to the officials, I guess."
Henrickson's instructions to the team before the overtime period against Missouri. The Jayhawks and Tigers got into a fight during a game two years ago:
"I said to take the fight out of them right away. Throw them a couple punches. Not literally — I probably shouldn't say that here."
Fennelly, on an ankle injury to star player Lyndsey Medders:
"I don't think she's going to play the Texas Tech game, but that's just me. I didn't stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night."
Missouri coach Cindy Stein, on how her team adjusted to KU senior guard Erica Hallman after she made some early three-point shots:
"We tried to defend her."
Ames High School, that would be fine."
On Serbian freshman Marija Zinic's lack of hustle against Birmingham-Southern:
Stein, whose team shot 64 percent from the free-throw line, on whether getting free throws was a point of emphasis:
Henrickson, after Catic said she was tired during the Florida International game because it was during finals week:
"That's her nonchalant, I haven't learned how to say that in Serbian, but that would be the word I'd use with her."
"Have you seen our free-throw percentage? I'm not sure that was ever a point of emphasis."
"I think she's going to put, like, two tons of makeup on."
Calic, on what Zinic, freshman forward, was going to do after getting a black eye:
Henrickson, on the Jayhawks getting their first road victory of the season in Ames, Iowa:
"We're going to only play in Lawrence and Ames. We don't want to play Iowa State. That's not my point. We could play at
"I'm sure Ivana's the only player in America that took finals this week."
On how the players in Columbia reacted to the Jayhawk players showing up in high school T-shirts. They were banned from wearing anything that said Kansas:
"The Missouri kids said that Kansas doesn't have any money; they don't get practice clothes."
Henrickson responding to a reporter asking why she started Sallard against Missouri in Columbia:
"Well, with the combination of not letting Riddle post us up, and Savant. But Savant's a great perimeter post player, and Riddle is a great post perimeter player. Are you with me? So we put a post on their kid who plays the guard at the post and put a guard on their kid who plays the post that plays on the perimeter. (pauses) That make sense?"

DURHAM, N.C.—Duke University's lacrosse coach resigned Wednesday and the school canceled the rest of the season amid a burgeoning scandal involving allegations that three players on the team raped a stripper at an off-campus party.
"When it was offered, I thought it was highly appropriate," Duke President Richard Brodhead said of coach Mike Pressler's decision to resign. Pressler spent 16 seasons at Duke and won three Atlantic Coast Conference championships. Last year, his team appeared in the national championship game.
The rape allegations have roiled the campus and the city, raised racial tensions, and heightened the long-standing antagonism between the privileged students at the elite university and the poorer people of Durham.
Investigators have said the athletes are sticking together and keeping silent. No one has been charged.
The stripper is black and said her attackers were white. Investigators and witnesses have said the lacrosse players taunted her with racial slurs and insults.
Students and townspeople have marched on campus and off in recent days, angry over the school's handling of the allegations and the team members' refusal to cooperate with police.
The co-captains of the lacrosse team, which was highly ranked before the scandal, have denied that anyone was sexually assaulted at the party, as have attorneys for the players.

The university president referred to the player's e-mail in announcing the cancellation of the rest of the season. Last

Earlier Wednesday, authorities unsealed documents stating that hours after the alleged rape, a player apparently sent an e-
week, Brodhead suspended the team from play.
"The court released today a previously sealed warrant, whose contents are sickening and repulsive," he said Wednesday.
Later in the day, Brodhead he announced a series of steps Duke plans to take to address the allegations, including examining the culture of the lacrosse team and investigating the school's response to the scandal.

The Legends' tough play came as no shock to Kansas coach
"The reason for games like this is because they are good competition," Francis said. "The boys are just much faster."
Gault, freshman Jessica Bush, and junior Lacey Novak missed on chances to score early in the half, but Gault's late goal was enough to keep Kansas undefeated.
Kansas will have a week off before playing the Canadian National Team Thursday, April 13 at Hummer Sports Park in Topeka.
