Kansas plays stays together
Players, coaches foster a family environment
By Bill Petulla
Kansan sportswriter
Days after surgery on her ankle, Kansas junior guard Tamecka Dixon slowly hobbled onto the basketball court before practice.
She took a seat on the sidelines by the scorer's table while her healthy teammates ran their warm up laps around the perimeter of the Allen Field House floor.
After four laps the team huddled in a circle at center court and each put one hand in the middle. Although the wounded Dixon couldn't put her hand in with the group, she extended her hand and simulated the motion her teammates were performing 20 feet away.
Although they are enemies who battle with elbowing and physical play during intense practices, the Kansas women's basketball team is joined together like a family.
"This is the closest team I've ever been on, and I've been here the longest," Kansas senior guard Charisse Sampson
said. "I think it started this summer by everybody staying on campus. It's carrying on into the season, and it's going to make us better."
Ten Jayhawks stayed on campus last summer, took classes and worked on their games.
Sampson's backcourt mate agreed that the Jayhawks saw eye to eye.
"This is the most close knit team I've ever played on," Dixon said. "It seems like we all have the same commitment and dedication, and we all want to accomplish the same goal. It feels like were on the same level."
Although Kansas women's basketball coach Marian Washington plays the straight role, assistant coach Maggie Mahood adds humor to the coach's meetings.
Team unity is not only reserved for the players, but it also spills over into the front office.
For the meeting on Halloween, Mahood even told a ghost story.
Even the newcomers have found their new environment to be warm and friendly.
"I don't think we're having any trouble fitting in," freshman forward/center Nakia Sanford said. "The people on the team are like a family."
