Four Jayhawks earn conference titles
Kansas pole vaulters sweep first place; women's team finishes sixth, men end in seventh place
BY TAYLOR BERN
Expectations were high for Kansas heading into the Big 12 Indoor Championships, and several Jawahra stepped up to the challenge and came away with top finishes.
Four layhawks came away with conference titles, which helped the women's team finish sixth with 52 points and the men place seventh with 57.
Junior favorites Egor Agafonov and Kate Sultanova captured individual titles in the men's weight throw and women's pole vault. Agafonov, the defending Big 12 champion, matched his career best mark with a toss of 76-01, the longest collegiate throw this season.
"It was a very rewarding performance because I feel like all the work my coach and I do is paying of I2. Agafonov said in a press
release. I really enjoy, the guys I compete with and I just want to keep moving up and throwing farther*
Sultanova tied a Big 12 championship meet record with her winning height of 13.09.25. Freshman Brittany Parker
also scored in the event, clearing 12. 09.25 for seventh place.
In the men's pole vault, Jordan
Scott ignored his freshman fitters and cleared 17-05.50 to give Kansas a sweep of the event.
"It was a very rewarding performance because I feel like all the work my coach and I do is paying off."

Big 12 Champion weight thrower
"It was my last jump at that height and as I came down the runway, I visualized myself clearing the bar and it was probably the best jump I have ever taken," Scott said in a press release.
Junior Colby Wissel the
reigning Big 12 cross country champion, used a strong finishing kick to jump from fourth to first in the
men's 3,000 meters and win with a time of 8.06.72.
Kansas also found success in the men's and women's 60-meter hurdles, where junior Julius Jiles and sophomore Ashley Brown each surpassed the NCAA provisional mark. Jiles and Brown each set new personal records in their preliminary race with times of 7.85 and 8.38, then finished second and third in their finals.
Sophomore Sha'Ray Butler clocked in at 55.11 in the women's 400 meters for a third-place finish.
"I was not expecting to reach the finals, so to go from that to surprising the team by making the finals to getting third in the conference, I feel very blessed." Butter said in a press release.
Kansas racked up points in the 600-yard run. Sophomore Charity Stowers finished fourth and senior Jancee Gatson finished eighth in the women's race. For the men, junior Matt Baysinger fished fourth and senior Cliff Mitchell came in sixth.
In the men's 5,000 meters, Wissel and fellow junior Paul Hefferon finished third and eighth.
The Jayhawks travel to Ames, Iowa, next weekend for the Iowa State Invitational, the last chance for athletes to quality for the NCAA Indoor Championships.

PGA TOUR
Senior golfer takes first
Mexican tournament
PLAYA DEL CARMEN, Mexico — Fred Funk came to Mexico aiming to show the young guys on the PGA Tour that he could still play championship golf at age 50.
And he managed to do it,
despite a back problem that
left him aching like an old-
timer.
The 50-year-old Funk overcame the pain and a rocky final round to win the Mayakoba Golf Classic on the second hole of a playoff with Jose Coceres, making him only the second man to win on the regular tour after winning on the Champions Tour.

Associated Press
Funk led the tournament, the PGA Tour's first in Mexico, setting the course record with an 8-under 62 Thursday. He never lost the lead, but was tied several times.
