Reves scores 1,000th career point
By Brandon Stinnett
Kansan sportswriter
Kansas suffered a 70-60 home-loss to Colorado last night at Allen Fieldhouse, but it was a record-setting game for one Jawhawk player.
Senior forward Brooke Reves reached the 1,000-point milestone during the game, becoming the 16th Kansas player to accomplish the feat and the second this season.
Reves joined senior center Jaclyn Johnson on the list. Senior guard Jennifer Jackson, who scored eight points against the Buffaloes, needs just 12 more to reach 1,000.
Reves' record-breaking shot came with 14:49 remaining in the second half and tied the game at 39.
"It's a great honor to be on a list like that," Reves said. "I'm definitely honored to do it under Coach Washington."
Reaching the milestone wasn't a concern for Reves or the Jayhawks entering the game. In fact, Kansas coach Marian Washington wasn't
even aware of Reves' accomplishment until the public address announcer informed the crowd after the shot.
"I didn't even know about it," Washington said. "If Brooke knew about it then she knew more than I did. I'm happy for her. Our focus is on these seniors."
"Jaclyn worked very hard," Washington said. "There were occasions when I didn't even want to see her stepping out and facing up and doing anything but driving to the hole. We were able to find her down low. She's just a warrior on the block."
The Jayhawks' main focus during the game was on Johnson, who led all scorers with 25 points.
Colorado upped the pressure on Johnson in the second half, which created more open shots. But the Jayhawks couldn't capitalize, hitting just two-of-eight shots from behind the three-point arc.
"I was just playing inside and they couldn't stop me so they just kept going to me." Johnson said. "They
wised up and started double-teaming, but we just weren't hitting from the outside."
It was Kansas' sixth loss at Allen Fieldhouse this season and its second to Colorado. The Jayhawks (9-12, 3-7 Big 12 Conference) fell to the Buffaloes, 72-63, in Boulder, Colo., on Jan. 20. It was the same story in both games. Kansas couldn't keep Colorado (16-5, 12-3) away from the free-throw line. The Buffaloes converted on 22-of-26 free-throw attempts, compared to just four-of-six for the Jayhawks. In their previous meeting, Colorado was 18-for-26 from the line.
Reves said she was encouraged by her teammates' refusal to give in late in the game.
"If you take the free throws out of it, we beat them in every area of this game," Johnson said. "Except for the free-throw line, there's no area that we lost."
"I think everybody fought tonight," Reves said. "In past games that we lost, I felt that we lost some people here or there."

Missouri too much for Kansas State
The Associated Press
COLUMBIA, Mo. — Brian Grawer scored a season-high 22 points and hit the game-winning three-pointer with 15.4 seconds left, helping Missouri, in its first game without injured Kareem Rush, beat Kansas State 70-66 last night in the Hearnes Center.
Grawer, who is averaging 7.2 points, helped help the void left when Rush suffered a season-ending thumb injury in a loss at Oklahoma State on Monday. Grawer was six-of-12 from three-point range and played all 40 minutes.
Besides Rush and his Big 12 Conference-leading 21.9-point average, Missouri also overcame a poor game from No. 2 scoreer Clarence Gilbert. Gilbert played despite having the flu and scored only two points. But Gilbert's points were big — a pair of free-
throws that were the game's final points with 4.3 seconds to play after Quentin Buchanan shot an air ball from the baseline for K-State's last chance.
Freshman Wesley Stokes added a career-high 19 points — including four three-pointers — for Missouri (15-7, 6-3 Big 12). Freshman Rickey Paulding, who replaced Rush in the Missouri lineup, had 10 points in his first career start.
Matt Siebrandt scored 11 of his 20 points in the final 5:30 for K-State (8-12, 2-7), which has lost seven of eight games. Siebrandt also had 20 points in K-State's 80-59 victory against Missouri in Manhattan on Jan. 16.
Siebrandt scored seven straight points, helping the Wildcats take a 62-54 lead with 4:08 to play. He had K-State's four points the rest of the way.
Jan. 29. Stokes, who was five-fire-eight from three-point range, topped his previous high of 11 at Indiana on Dec. 18.
Grawer's previous season-high was 14 points against Kansas on
At Nebraska 78, Oklahoma St.
75, OT
Nebraska, overtime and two emotional games in three nights were too much for Oklahoma State.
At No. 21 Oklahoma 80, Texas Tech 72
Nebraska held off the Cowboys in overtime in Oklahoma State's first road game since two players were killed in a plane crash following a game at Colorado last month.
Kimani Friend responded to losing his starting job with 17 points and eight rebounds for the Cornhuskers (11-11, 4-5), who gave up two second-half leads and nearly let it get away in overtime against the Cowboys (14-5, 5-3).
Okahama's J.R. Raymond is in the kind of groove where even bad decisions come out looking good.
Raymond, who had averaged 20.6 points during the Sooners' five-game winning streak, had a poor shooting night but came up with a clutch three-pointer that helped Oklahoma hold off Texas Tech. The Sooners (18-4, 7-3) outscored Texas Tech 13-3 in the final 2:23 after the Red Raiders (8-11, 2-6) had erased a nine-point second-half deficit.
Texas 77, at Colorado 72
Darren Kelly scored 25 points, including nine down the stretch, and Texas scored the game's final eight points and rallied past Colorado.
Texas (17-6, 6-3) trailed by seven points with seven minutes left but used a five-point possession and cut the deficit to two against the Buffaloes (19-4, 6-).
