THE UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN
BIG 12 TOURNAMENT SPECIAL SECTION
THURSDAY, MARCH 8, 2007
When Sherron Collins breaks through defensive pressure and passes the ball to Mario Chalmers, who tosses Julian Wright an alley-oop,the whole process looks like one fluid motion. But behind that 15-second highlight is months of weight-lifting, running and other drills during early-morning and late-night practices. On the eve of the Big 12 Tournament, The Kansan takes a look at how this year's team has grown since we first saw them in October.
