Trailing 10-7 with a minute remaining in the first half, looking for its first win of the season, last-place Oklahoma State had a chance to deal Kansas a significant blow when it reached first-and-goal at KU’s 3-yard line. Instead, OSU went one yard in three plays, and rather than going for it on fourth down opted to play for the tie — a tie it didn’t obtain in the first place when Leroy Harris III ...
The Kansas volleyball team dominated West Virginia in a road match on Saturday afternoon, resulting in a 3-0 sweep (25-16, 25-18, 25-17). WVU’s block put up little resistance against KU, which hit .484 and only got blocked a single time. Four Jayhawks reached double-digit kills, led by Grace Nelson, who had 13 to go with eight digs. Rhian Swanson and Jovana Zelenović tallied 11 each, and Reese Ptacek ...
Kansas wide receiver Bryson Canty sees setbacks as opportunities to learn lessons, he says, and he knows everything happens for a reason — even the leg injury that set him back during fall camp after he arrived in Lawrence over the summer. After all, he wouldn’t even be playing for KU in the first place if it weren’t for another injury, a torn hamstring his junior year at Columbia that cost him most of ...

Last year, I think we played that same mentality, like ...
As Kansas sophomore midfielder Jillian Gregorski puts it, the Jayhawks have a lot of “unfinished business” with the other teams that made the Big 12 tournament. Above seventh-seeded KU, which finished 6-4-1 in league play — its exact mark in last season — after a 2-1 home loss to Colorado on Thursday, are the four teams it lost to and the one it tied (plus one it didn’t play). It might be good news, ...
The 14th-ranked Kansas volleyball team bounced back on Thursday night with a victory on the road at Cincinnati, 3-1 (25-22, 25-17, 22-25, 25-18). Sophomore outside hitter Grace Nelson excelled, recording a 17-kill, 19-dig double-double on .333 hitting. Senior outside hitter Rhian Swanson paced KU with 19 kills, and middle blocker Reese Ptacek and opposite hitter Jovana Zelenović added a dozen apiece. Katie ...
