Jayhawks lead early fall to No.16 Bears
BY CASE KEEFER
Kansas dropped its third-straight game Sunday, falling to the No. 16 ranked California Golden Bears, 73-65.
Despite a first half that saw the layhacks up by as much as nine, poor shooting and an inability to defend in the paint doomed the team in the second半分.
"We had an opportunity and didn't finish," coach Bonnie Henrickson said. "We looked a little dared in the second half."
The laybacks shot only 25 percent in the second half and gave up 14 points to Calophore-forward Ashley Walker. Walker had a game-high 26 points.
"It concerns me, but she's a tough match-up. We've just a lot of freshmen without that kind of athleticism trying to guard her." Hendrickson said.
crestman forward Danielle McCray was only averaging 13 minutes per game but played 32 against the Bears and led the lawhaves with a career high 19 points.
We just needed some offense from someone who can pass and shoot. Hentrickson said, "I have no fear."
Freshman guard LaChelia lacoes led the Jawhacks to an 18-14 lead in the first ten minutes with eight points and four rebounds.
With 9-14 remaining in the first hall, jacobs recorded her second fail. This forced Kansas to bench its most proven offensive threats lacosa and freshman guard Kely Koln.
Senior guard Shaquina Mosley and freshman forward McCray combined for 18 points in the final 10 minutes of the half. Mosley also added three assists.
Following a McCray jumper from the wing with 419 remaining, Kramer had made four changes.
The Golden Bears responded and Walker had four points to drop the Jayhawk lead to only 38-34 at halftime.
The Golden Bears jumped out with 16-4 run in the second half. Kansas' teams to contain the Cal frontcourt continued as the team went to the line 22 times in the second half.
we not didn't create opportunities to be aggressive and get to the free throw line; Henrickson said, "They did."
With 2.01 remaining, Kansas tased its biggest deficit of the game, down 67-56. The lajhwahs did not give up, however, and hit three pointers in the final two minutes to end the game.
"It showed a lot about our team, we wanted this win more than anything and I think that showed in the last few minutes but it was too late." John said.
"These losses are nothing but games to learn from," she said. "I think we'll use them as momentum."
