UNIVERSITY DAILY KANSAN Victories carry teams to spring Men, women seek to continue success I By Kent Hohlfeld Kansan sportswriter The Kansas swimming and diving teams have used the fall portion of their schedules to build a foundation for next spring. The women's team will take a 2-1 dual meet record into the spring season, while the men's squad holds a 2-0 dual meet record. "The highest point of the fall season was beating Southern Methodist for the first time," sophomore Ryan Lowe said. The men's team defeated Southern Methodist for the first time in team history, 130-111, Nov. 13 in Oklahoma City. The victory avenged last year's 181-151 loss to the Mustangs. The men finished third behind Southern California and Michigan. The women finished fourth behind Southern Methodist, Southern California and Michigan. "I think we swam well," Kansas coach Gary Kempfsaid. "We spent the semester in the aerobic phase of our training." He said that the aerobic phase of the team's training built a foundation for the team as it moved into the competitive phase of its training. Lowe was one of the team's bright spots in the U.S. Open. He qualified for the finals in the 200-meter butterfly. He won the preliminary meet and was seeded first going into Saturday's finals. MEN'S AND WOMEN'S SWIMMING "I performed pretty well in that event," Lowe said. "The meet was what I hoped for at this point in the season." He said that he felt the fall portion of the team's schedule prepared the swimmers for the spring season. "I think we met most of the challenges better than we have in the past," Lowe said. "I think we performed strong for this point in the season." Senior Krista Cordsen said she thought the fall season was a good stepping stone for the spring schedule. some of the best competition in the country. Cordsen said the team needed to regroup mentally and gain some mental toughness for the spring season. Cordsen said that she thought the U.S. Open was a good meet for the team to see how it compared with "We need to be able to focus more and work through pressure," Cordsen said. "We can't let the pressure get to us." The spring schedule includes road meets against Southern Illinois, Iowa State and Notre Dame. The team will have home meets featuring Minnesota and Arkansas on Jan. 15, and Nebraska on Feb. 12. She said that the team needed to perform well in all of its spring meets. Kempf agreed that consistency would be a key element for the team's success in the spring. "We're the type of program other teams get up for," Kempf said. "We don't go up against any teams that aren't ready." Kempf said that the team would rest during winter break and then return for a two-week training camp starting Dec. 28. "The team has some basic decisions on how good they want to be," Kempf said. "Right now we have some horses that are running like colts. We need our horses running like stallions."
