The Kansas women’s golf team successfully defended its home course, claiming victory by a 13-stroke margin in the Marilyn Smith Sunflower Invitational at Lawrence Country Club on Tuesday. As a team, the Jayhawks shot a 6-under 858 in 54 holes for one of their lowest scores in program history. More notably, though, since they had already won the Golfweek Red Sky Classic two weeks earlier, they clinched a ...
Wide receiver Quentin Skinner has made plenty of memorable catches over the years. During the 2023 season alone, he used all of his 6-foot-5 frame to snag a high pass from Jalon Daniels for a sideline grab that helped Kansas escape Nevada; came back from out of bounds to haul in a deflection against Oklahoma; and spun around to secure a ball from Jason Bean between a pair of defenders at Iowa State.

Warner scored. Then the Scorpions got called for holding, ...
Tempe, Ariz. — The stars were aligning for Kansas to have its first good end-of-half sequence in a month. Mello Dotson had forced a fumble on the first play out of the two-minute warning. KU, already leading 14-7, would get the ball to open the second half. With a successful sequence the Jayhawks could seize control ahead of the break.
