KU picked for ninth in Big 12 women poll

Kansas University has been predicted to finish ninth in Big 12 Conference women’s basketball standings in a vote of the league’s head coaches.

The Jayhawks will return the bulk of the roster from a team that finished 4-12 in the Big 12 last year and tied for 10th place with Texas Tech. Oklahoma was tapped as the preseason favorite, followed by Texas, Iowa State, Baylor, Texas A&M and Oklahoma State.
