SherronS laSt night at home
FAREWELL TO THE PHOG
Weston White/KANSAN
Senior guard Sherron Collins watches a highlight reel of his four years at Kansas following Kansas 82-65 victory against Kansas State Wednesday night. Collins played his last game in Allen Fieldhouse, fnishing with 17 points and four assists. He
ended his career in the Phog to mark his 125th victory, making himthe winningest four-year player in Kansas basketball history.
Coaches, teammates and fans celebrate Collins four years
BY ZACH GETZ
zgetz@kansan.com
Tonights about number four.
Bill Self couldnt have said it any bet-
ter.
Collins strolled through the tunnel into
a sweltering Allen Fieldhouse for the last
time Wednesday night. He received a
two-minute standing ovation as the deci-
bel meter hit 106.9 right before tip off.
The decibel level stayed high for the rest
of the night.
Many of the 16,300 fans lifted four
fingers to the sky or hoisted signs that
expressed love and gratitude for Collins
time at Kansas. Aint no seats was lifted
proudly for possibly the last time.
It was Collins night, but it wasnt about
the 17 points in 38 minutes that he put up.
He has had much better nights. Its about
the 1,774 points in 3,883 minutes that
Collins put up in his career at Kansas. Its
about the 125 victories that he has helped
Kansas achieve.
There is an unwritten expectation at
Kansas. In March, you win the Big 12
Conference. In April, you go to the Final
Four. In May, you walk down the hill.
Sure, athletes sometimes leave early,
and most fans dont blame them. But
Collins opted to forgo an immediate
future in the NBA multiple times to help
solidify his legend at Kansas.
Collins stepped off the Naismith Court
for the last time with 30.4 seconds to be
greeted by bear hugs from his teammates.
He looked more nervous than he had ever
seemed in Allen Fieldhouse, tugging at
his shirt and staring at the ground while
delivering his senior night speech.
Beads of sweat turned to tears of joy.
Collins predicted a waterfall of tears
by the end of the night, and sure enough
tears cascaded down his face, especially as
he thanked his family.
He wasnt the only one. All through the
crowd fans were rubbing tears off their
faces and wiping their noses.
Collins finished his speech by thanking
the fans for a wonderful four years.
Well, thank you, Sherron, for four fan-
tastic years.

Making weight before spring break
Photo Illustration by Jerry Wang/KANSAN
Students can become fxated on their body image this the time of year, according to Ann Chap-
man, coordinator of nutrition services at Watkins Memorial Health Center. Some students might
turn to crash dieting or weight loss supplements as a quick weight loss solution.
BY KIRSTEN KWON
kkwon@kansan.com
Lauren Kathe planned to limit
herself to eating strictly cabbage
soup and vegetables for two weeks.
She hoped her crash diet attempt
would result in lightning-quick
weight loss and a boost in energy.
Kathe, a senior from Algonquin,
Ill., tried this crash diet two years
ago. She thought shed be in great
shape to tackle the Christmas eating
season by cutting out most foods.
Instead, she became sick within the
first five days, and all the weight
she lost returned. Kathes friends
and family were not big fans of her
crash diet.
Mostly people didnt think I
needed to lose weight and thought
I was crazy, Kathe said.
A crash diet is a very restrictive
weight loss plan that involves sig-
nificantly cutting back on calorie
and fat intake. In most cases, people
who participate in crash dieting do
so for two to five weeks in hopes of
losing a drastic amount of weight
in a short period of time. Some
reports show people have lost 12 to
20 pounds upon the completion of
a crash diet.
With spring break only a
week away and the warm season
approaching, some students are
thinking of ways to lose weight fast
and might turn to crash diets.

Students pledge to
stop using r-word
BY SAMANTHA FOSTER
sfoster@kansan.com
Some University students are
dedicated to raising awareness
about something they see as a
common problem: the use of the
word retard.
The campaign, Spread the
Word to End the Word, is in its
second year. Advocates say the
campaign seeks to raise aware-
ness that the r-word is frequent-
ly used casually by people who
dont realize how offensive it is.
They say the word offends a large
group of people, including people
with intellectual disabilities and
their families and friends. During
the campaign, people are encour-
aged to sign a pledge to eliminate
the use of hurtful words in every-
day conversation.
Victoria Renn, a sophomore
from Overland Park, was one
of the students who encouraged
passersby to sign the pledge
Wednesday in front of Wescoe
Hall. Renn is the president of
Best Buddies, an organization

Four social workers
convicted of fraud
PHILADELPHIA Four social
workers were convicted Wednes-
day in a fraud case stemming
from the starvation death of
a disabled Philadelphia teen-
ager whose emaciated body
was found with maggot-infested
bedsores.
A federal jury in Philadelphia
convicted the employees of
now-defunct multiEthnic Be-
havioral Health Inc., which was
accused of defrauding the city of
millions of dollars by not visiting
needy families and then cover-
ing that up with false paperwork.
Prosecutors say the frm
submitted paperwork for visits
that were never made after
14-year-old Danieal kellys body
was found in 2006. ofcials said
kelly, who had cerebral palsy,
weighed only 42 pounds at the
time of her death, less than half
the weight of an average girl her
age.
All four defendants were con-
victed of conspiracy, wire fraud
and lying to federal agents, and
company co-founders mickal
kamuvaka, 60, and Solomon ma-
namela, 52, were convicted of all
health care fraud counts. kamu-
vaka still faces trial on a charge
of involuntary manslaughter in
kellys death.
Julius Juma murray, 52, the
caseworker assigned to the kelly
family, and miriam coulebaly,
41, were each also convicted of
three health care fraud counts
but acquitted of three others.
murray also faces a manslaugh-
ter trial and is being held as a
trial approaches this month on
federal immigration charges.
kellys mother, Andrea, is serv-
ing 20 to 40 years in prison after
pleading guilty to third-degree
murder.
The four are scheduled for
sentencing in June.

that pairs volunteers with people
who have intellectual disabilities.
She said she loves when her buddy,
Donald, hangs out and eats dinner
with her and her roommates or
goes to the grocery store with her.
She said working with Best Buddies
made her more aware of the effect
of words used to refer to people
with intellectual disabilities.
Its taught me a lot about dif-
ferent types of people, and I think
doing things like that lets people
be aware of hurtful words about
people who are our friends and
that weve built relationships with,
Renn said.
Clint Armistead, a senior from
Overland Park who works with
both Special Olympics and Best
Buddies, said its important to look
past outward differences of people
with intellectual disabilities and
find out who they are and what
they are like. He said he met an
individual who loved movies and
had a movie collection that covered
three walls.
Had I seen him for the fact
that he fidgets with his hands and
mumbles to himself every now and
then had I seen him for that, I
probably would have stepped back
and said thats weird, Armistead
said. But the fact that I was able
to overlook that and look for the
similarity and things we have in
common, I can go over and watch
movies with him and talk movies.
Its an enjoyable time to hang out
with him because Im looking at
his similarities and not his differ-
ences.
Chris Hahn, CEO of Special
Olympics Kansas, said the event
promoted the acceptance and
inclusion of people with intellec-
tual disabilities in society.
Were not saying to ban it or
get rid of it, but were trying to
let people know that its a word
that when its said, its hurtful, its
mean, he said.
Hahn said his daughter has an
intellectual disability and that he
hears people use the word retard
when referring to her in public.
You hear that and see that, and
you think, Wouldnt it be nice to
take Emily out and for people to
just accept her for who she is and
what she is? he said. If were
going to move forward and be a
good place for all of us to live,
we have to accept diversity, and
acceptance has to be part of that
inclusion.
Best Buddies and Special
Olympics teamed up for this years
campaign. The local chapter of Best
Buddies had a goal for 1,000 people
to sign the pledge. The organiza-
tions had a goal of 100,000 pledges
worldwide.
Renn said the long-term goal
of the campaign was to encourage
people to use a different word if
they dont intend to be hurtful.
Armistead said about 300 stu-
dents signed the pledge last year.
The volunteers hadnt counted the
pledges, but by Wednesday after-
noon Armistead said he thought
there were already more signatures
than last year.

of nutrition services at Watkins
Memorial Health Center, said this
is a time of year when some stu-
dents can become fixated on body
image.
I do think students get very
focused on their bodies and body
image before spring break, and
they will work out more and eat
less because theyre going to the
beach, Chapman said. Some are
being more restrictive or using
unhealthy eating regiments for a
short period of time.
Chapman said fad or crash diets
will produce weight loss, but only
if strict diet rules are followed.
Also, the restrictiveness of crash
diets can actually lead to binge eat-
ing, she said.
In general, if you eat too few
calories, youll be so starved youll
end up overeating, Chapman
said.
Although a crash diet can be
seen as simply a quick fix, these
types of eating habits can lead
to more serious issues. The lack
of nutrients alone deprives the
body in the same ways starvation
would.
In that sense, crash diets can
deliver serious side effects compa-
rable to those of eating disorders.
According to the National
Eating Disorders Association,
nearly 10 million females and 1
million males are currently bat-
tling eating disorders in the United
States. These disorders can range
from anorexia and bulimia to
binge eating.
Kathe said she experienced some
side effects while crash dieting.
Because my body wasnt receiv-
ing the proper amounts of nutri-
tion, I became very sick during
the diet, Kathe said. At first, it
felt like a cold, and after five days I
had strep throat. I was so tired and
worn down.
But crash dieting isnt the only
quick fix people turn to as a way
to shed several pounds in a short
time.
CLEANSES
Cleanses have received atten-
tion on some talk shows as being
healthier than other crash dieting
fads. Cleanses aim to detoxify the
body and clear out poisons. Weight
loss is another perk. Some cleanses
involve eating only fruits and veg-
etables while even stricter ones
call for drinking juice and eating
nothing.
Some celebrities, such as singer
and actress Beyonc Knowles, have
publicly praised cleansing.
Beyonc said she used the mas-
ter cleanse, which consists of
drinking a combination of lemon
or lime juice, maple syrup and
cayenne pepper mixed with water
to slim down for her role in the
2006 movie Dream Girls. On this
master cleanse, Beyonce lost 20
pounds, according to an August
2006 article in the New York Daily
News.
Chapman said she thought
cleanses are unnecessary and
called them hype.
Your body is designed to take
care of toxins on its own so that
you dont need to use a cleansing
process, Chapman said. Its mar-
keting. They convince the public
that they have all these toxins in
their system.
SUPPLEMENTS
Supplements such as Hydroxycut
and Slim Shots advertise their
weight loss claims on TV and in
magazines. These types of supple-
ments and diet pills are used to
complement cleanses or diets.
Cathy Thrasher, pharmacist at
Watkins, said just because pills
were on the market didnt mean
theyre safe. She said in many cases
the Food and Drug Administration
was slow to detect unsafe diet sup-
plements.
If the product doesnt make
a medical claim, they can sell
it, Thrasher said. Then, unless
something bad happens and some-
one brings the problem forward,
the FDA doesnt take it off the
market. I dont think most people
are aware of that.
Although some face the
unhealthy consequences of diet-
ing, Kathe said that because of
her experience she wouldnt try
another crash diet. Instead, shes
managed to shed pounds by fol-
lowing a healthier eating and exer-
cise plan.
I definitely think crash dieting
can be harmful, Kathe said. Its
an ineffective way to lose weight.
Two years later, I am 10 pounds
skinner. I lost it by eating better
and maintaining activity.

contAct us
T
he other day I was wait-
ing to pull out of a shop-
ping center and turn lef
onto Louisiana Street near the
23rd Street intersection. But I
was forced to sit and wait be-
cause of a girl chatting on her
phone and blatantly blocking the
intersection while the light was
red. Tats when I was reminded
some people are totally oblivious
to basic driving etiquette.
Tere are rules of the road
we all learn to pass our drivers
license test. But there are unspo-
ken guidelines that make driving
a little easier for everyone.
Lets start with the situation I
already mentioned. When com-
ing to a red light, do not stop
and block the road. If there are
other drivers who need to cross
to make a lef turn, leave a big
enough gap so they are easily
able to do so.
If coming to a four-way stop,
put on a blinker if turning. Te
four-way stop can be a tango for
cars, especially if multiple cars
pull up at the same time. Who
goes next? One way to clarify any
confusion is to make the direc-
tions as clear as possible. Trow
on the blinker. It only takes a
second.
For that matter, just make a
habit of using a blinker in gen-
eral. Its there for a reason.
Driving on Kansas Highway
10 or U.S. Interstate 70, theres
always that person who insists
on driving well below the speed
limit in the lef lane. Te lef lane
is for passing.
In fact, thats not even just
etiquette anymore. As of July 1
this year, it will be illegal to drive
in the lef lane in Kansas un-
less passing a car. When I have
trouble moderating my speed, I
use that little tool called cruise
control. Tis helps me know for
sure that Im driving at a respect-
able speed and those who want
to pass me can easily do so.
Kansas is partially rural, and
drivers use their bright lights.
Remember to dim brights on
dark roads when another car is
approaching. Blinding lights can
cause a dangerous distraction for
drivers.
Lastly, please dont drive aim-
lessly and slowly looking for
an address. I realize that when
searching for a new location,
it makes sense to slow down to
get a better look at buildings.
However, thats really only logi-
cal for the person trying to fnd
a certain address. For everyone
behind him, its extremely dan-
gerous and unpredictable.
Tere is much to be said about
driving etiquette, but these are
a few guidelines to consider the
next time you put the key in the
ignition. Being considerate of
others pays of on the road. It
helps to eliminate road rage and
makes getting from one place to
the next as painless as possible.

L
ately, I have overheard a lot
of students telling horror
stories about the Parking
and Transit Department. Its a leg-
end thats been told many times.
Sometimes, the Department will
leave tiny pink slips demanding
money when a student leaves his
tire a bit on the line. Other times,
the mysterious Parking Depart-
ment ofcials are rumored to gath-
er like hungry sharks around cars
that have gone over meter time by
mere minutes and slap them with
the pink kiss of fne.
One day, I decided to follow one
of these ofcials back to the legend-
ary lair.
First of all, I would like to point
out that these people are elusive.
I followed a confused-looking
visitor who parked in the residence
hall parking lots with no pass and
waited. I was startled when fnally a
black robed fgure appeared. It was
carrying a handful of the pink kisses
of fnes. It put one on the confused
visitors car and swifly began to
walk away.
I followed it just as swifly in my
minivan. I got a glimpse of its face.
It wasnt pretty, not like a gremlin or
a dementor. It almost looked like a
guy in my science class, but I knew
that deep down its nature was evil.
Te car that the mysterious man
was driving stopped outside of a
cave I had never before noticed on
the outskirts of campus. I made sure
to park far away so as not to tip the
all-seeing Department of.
When I found my way to the cave,
I heard what appeared to be some
black magic chanting. I peeked into
the cave and found the other robed
fgures dancing around a fre that
they were fueling with $20 bills and
what appeared to be used versions
of the pink kisses of fnes.
Suddenly, the dancing ceased and
the hooded Department fgures got
down to business.
One of the hooded fgures cack-
led maniacally before suggesting
that they hire construction workers
to make the GSP/Corbin and Mc-
Collum parking lots even smaller.
Te others seemed interested.
Another fgure wanted to add
more red zones to the normal park-
ing lots to bamboozle more students.
Another suggested adding three
more colors maroon, cyan, and
beige to the parking zones. One
spent the whole meeting rocking
back and forth, grinning and mut-
tering, All the Andrew Jacksons.
I hurried back to my car and
drove home. It was difcult to sleep
that night. I constantly look out the
window for the hooded fgures and
the pink slips.
I think they know I investigated
them because every time I open my
wallet there seems to be one fewer
Andrew Jackson. Unless dollars can
walk, something evil is occurring.
Te pink slips sometimes sit on
my windshield when I park a bit
over the lines or a little crooked.
In them, I fnd the usual fne plus
a note that appears to be written in
blood (or red ink) that reads, Were
just doing our jobs. Te rules arent
that difcult to follow.
Part of me wants to believe it isnt
true, but the less angry part wants to
think that maybe, just maybe, it is.

T
he Kansas House passed a
bill Feb. 25 for a statewide
ban that would make it il-
legal to smoke in public places such
as bars and restaurants. Gov. Mark
Parkinson, who has endorsed the
bill in the past, is expected to sign
the bill into law. Tis is a decision
that all students, smokers or not,
should support.
According to a poll by the Sun-
fower Foundation, which supports
health care for Kansans, 71 percent
of the state is in favor of a smoking
ban. If Parkinson approves the bill
as expected, it would become efec-
tive July 1.
Smokers should adjust their hab-
its accordingly. Tis should be done
not just out of respect for the law,
but out of respect of the nonsmok-
ers around them.
Te Environmental Protection
Agency, the U.S. National Toxicol-
ogy Program and the International
Agency for Research on Cancer say
secondhand smoke is a known car-
cinogen. According to cancer.gov,
there are more than 4,000 diferent
chemicals in secondhand smoke,
250 of which are harmful and 50 are
known to cause cancer.
Banning smoking in public places
would help remove the presence of
harmful, cancer-causing chemicals
from the air, and clear air is a right
everyone should have.
Many cities in Kansas, including
Lawrence, have already passed sim-
liar laws at local levels. Te small-
scale success of these smoking bans
shows that it should be applied to
the rest of the state.
Te fact that individual cities have
taken it upon themselves to ban
smoking in public places also shows
that not only are individual Kansans
in support of a ban, but large groups
are as well.
Smoking cigarettes, just like con-
suming alcohol, is a personal deci-
sion. Both are health hazards and
should afect only the individual
who is drinking or smoking, not the
people around them.
People who have been drinking
cannot operate a vehicle because
it endangers the lives of others.
Tough the efects of secondhand
smoke are not seen as immediately
as those of a drunk-driving acci-
dent, the damage is still there.
With all of the information avail-
able now about the dangers associ-
ated with secondhand smoke, it is
ridiculous for smokers to be allowed
to smoke in public places. Cigarettes
themselves should not be banned,
just the ability of smokers to smoke
around people who might not
want to be exposed to secondhand
smoke.
Students should be in support
of this bill regardless of whether
they smoke. Smokers should take
responsibility for their decisions to
smoke and keep the health of those
around them in mind when they de-
cide to light up.

HuMOr
LeTTer TO THe ediTOr
T
he subject of this letter is
cap and trade legislation
that is currently being de-
bated in the Senate and the typi-
cal Kansan support of it.
Te bill, laden with other scary
proposals, creates a cap and trade
system that will force businesses
to purchase allowances for their
carbon emissions that exceed the
emission level being determined
by a central planning authority.
Although I think it is ludicrous
to tax the gas we exhale, I am not
arguing against cap and trade be-
cause of belief or disbelief in an-
thropogenic global warming.
Rather, I loathe the idea of
cap and trade because it will not
lower global carbon emissions
while simultaneously destroying
Americas economy and globally
redistributing wealth.
Nearly every business emits
carbon in some form, so how will
they respond to these taxes or
rather, allowances that they
are forced to pay for? Tey will
cut wages, layof employees, raise
prices or, for large corporations
especially, leave the country.
Why would any chemical
manufacturing company stay in
the United States given that they
are fully aware cap and trade will
raise their fxed costs 53 percent
during the next 10 years?
Tese energy costs and con-
trols create economic incentive
for U.S. businesses to emigrate
to countries not adopting such
laws.
China recently endorsed cap
and trade in the U.S. Also, a Chi-
nese ofcial recently afrmed
that China will not begin to con-
sider pollution controls of any
kind until the country is as fully
developed as America. China
also recently surpassed the U.S.
as the No. 1 carbon emitter in the
world.
In short, the implications of
cap and trade are quite blatant yet
frightening it will have no net
change on global carbon emis-
sions but will have a marked net
change on global economics be-
cause of vast transfers of wealth
from Western nations to under-
developed nations.

much. Hes probably one of, if not,
my favorite Jayhawks of all time.
Just how much hes grown and
how much he embodies our team.
Hes the ultimate team leader, the
ultimate team player. He sacrifces
so much for our team.

For John LeRoy and Jon Goscha,
all their effort and hard work from
the past several months will come
down to this weekend.
LeRoy, a senior from Leawood,
and Goscha, a junior from Salina,
are two of the
directors for
Sigma Nu fra-
ternity in this
years produc-
tion of Rock
Chalk Revue.
Sigma Nu is
paired with
Alpha Delta
Pi sorority for
the show, in a
production titled Prepare for a
Scare.
Its already been worth it,
LeRoy said. I couldnt think of
a better way to end my senior
year in college. Regardless of the
outcome, its been one of the best
experiences I could ever imagine.
Goscha said that their show is
about a group of monster friends
working together to scare the king
of the monsters. He said that both
chapters put a lot of time and
effort into this years production
and are looking forward to seeing
the results.
Last year, Sigma Nu rejoined
the Greek community after being
removed from campus for one
year. Because the last time Sigma
Nu was in Rock Chalk Revue was
in 2004, LeRoy said that the chap-
ters participation in this years
show would play a big role in
building a reputation for them-
selves on campus.
Its a big step in getting our
name back out, LeRoy said. Were
establishing our presence on cam-
pus again.
This year marks the 61st year of
Rock Chalk Revue, which is one
of the Universitys largest philan-
thropy efforts. Last year, the show
raised $60,000 for United Way,
and proceeds this year will again
go to the organization.
Rock Chalk Revue is a cam-
pus-wide variety show that pairs
organizations to write, create and
perform a 30-minute show for the
University and Lawrence commu-
nity. Participants for Rock Chalk
Revue were selected by 12 judges
after a weekend of auditions in
No v e mb e r .
The groups
have been
preparing for
this weekends
per f or mance
since then.
Performances,
which begin
tonight, last all
weekend.
Steve Fessler, a senior from
Kansas City, Mo., and executive
producer of Rock Chalk Revue,
oversees all business and theatri-
cal aspects of the show. Fessler
said that a large part of his effort
is geared toward raising money
for the United Way through sell-
ing ads to local businesses that
appear in the production pro-
gram. Fessler also oversees the
establishment of corporate spon-
sors.
From ad sales and corporate
sponsors alone, Fessler said Rock
Chalk Revue has raised more than
$20,000 for the United Way. After
ticket sales, Fessler said he hoped
to see more than $60,000 raised.
Obviously, our main emphasis
is to raise money for the United
Way, Fessler said. One of my
big goals from the beginning was
increasing the quality of the per-
formance. Wed like to see ticket
sales increase in tandem.
Beyond raising money for the
United Way, groups have a major
incentive to participate to
earn the trophy for the best show.
Typically, participants and facilita-
tors are able to guess whos going
to win, but Meghan Puhr, a senior
from Olathe and co-executive
director of the show, said that was
difficult this year.
This year, as opposed to other
years, there isnt one or two clear
best shows, Puhr said. All the
shows are equally creative. Theyre
all really good shows.
She said preproduction efforts
were going more smoothly this
year than in years past and that
shes excited to see what this years
show would bring.
Im just hoping to see every-
one have a good time, Puhr said.
Yeah, theres a competitive edge
to it, but everyone just needs to
have fun. I also hope we generate
some new Rock Chalk attendees.

Two friends plan a
3,500-mile biking
trip to help others
BY JENNY TERRELL
jterrell@kansan.com
The ice is melting, and finally
Patrick Mathay can begin diversi-
fying his workouts as he trains to
bike for 80 days.
Mathay, who graduated from
the University in December, is
teaming up with his friend
Greg Krupa, a student at the
University of Oregon, and bik-
ing from Eugene, Ore., to Zacapa,
Guatemala, in June. The two
met at the University two years
ago before Krupa transferred to
Oregon in 2008.
The 3,500-mile trip is a bike-
a-thon event to raise money for
the Range of Motion Project, an
organization that provides pros-
thetic limbs and clinics for people
in developing countries who cant
afford them. Mathay will stop
in different cities along the way
and inform people about ROMP.
Because of the frequent stops,
Mathay said he wouldnt be sur-
prised if it takes longer than two
and a half months to get there.
Mathay said he became pas-
sionate about this cause last sum-
mer while working at the ROMP
clinic in Guatemala. His job was
to follow up on past patients to
see how they are doing with their
prosthetic limbs.
The goal of all of it is to send
individuals out into society as
functioning individuals, Mathay
said.
Kelsey Hooker, a 2009 graduate
and Mathays girlfriend, also went
on the trip to Guatemala last sum-
mer. Hooker said although she is
a bit scared for him, as he will be
biking all the way down, she said
she knew it would raise awareness
for his passion.
Its his life mission, Hooker
said. He is the happiest when he
is helping others.
Mathay said part of his passion
to bike for awareness and fund-
raising came from the success
Krupa had in 2008, when Krupa
biked from Lawrence to Madison,
Wis., for ROMP.
Krupa said he chose biking as
a means of fundraising because,
aside from public transportation,
it is the only means of transpor-
tation for a lot of people in the
developing world. It also helps
raise awareness of ROMP, he said.
Krupa said he gained his pas-
sion for prosthetics and ROMP
after spending a year working in
both Zacapa, Guatemala, and in
Quito, Ecuador, and seeing the
conditions of the people in need
of prosthetics.
I dont want to get it out of my
mind, but I cant get it out of my
mind even if I tried, Krupa said.
Mathay and Krupa will begin
pedaling from Eugene, Ore., on
June 19.
Mathay said he would par-
ticipate in the Gods Country
Duathlon on April 11, an event
that incorporates biking and
running on a trail in Lawrence,
and then he would run the half
marathon portion of the Kansas
Marathon April 18 in Lawrence.
He said he would conclude his
training events in a triathlon
on May 2 at the University of
Missouri.

WEATHER
Ice is melting, but students
continue to feel its efects
BY KIRSTEN KWON
kkwon@kansan.com
During a winter season with
heavy precipitation and freez-
ing temperatures, students dealt
with ice injuries on campus
and around Lawrence. Some
areas, such as the stairs outside
Anschutz Library, were closed
last week because of the slippery
conditions.
Apartment complexes dealt
with similar issues
Allison Dillmon, a sophomore
from Wichita, is still on crutch-
es from slipping on black ice
outside her apartment complex
seven weeks ago. She broke two
bones in her ankle.
My sister took me to the
emergency room, and Ive been
visiting an orthopedic surgeon
to get it checked up and stuff,
she said.
Because Dillmon fell on the
apartment complexs property, it
agreed to pay for some of her
medical fees. Dillmons insurance
and parents covered the rest.
KU general counsel Rose
Marino said the University is
covered against lawsuits regard-
ing weather-related injuries
under the Kansas Tort Claims
Act. She said the University is
not responsible for injuries that
occur because of snow, ice or
wind because those conditions
are outside of its control.
It basically states that unless
the University did something
to make it worse or cause it,
then the University isnt liable,
Marino said.
Marino said she didnt know
if a student had ever filed a law-
suit against the University for
weather-related injuries. But she
said complaints had been made,
which caused officials to look into
the issue.
University spokeswoman Jill
Jess said that the University tries
to make campus a safe place to
walk soon after snowfall but that
its not always an easy task.
The University makes every
effort to clear streets and side-
walks in a timely fashion, she
said. With the sheer amount of
area that has to be covered, we
know we wont be able to hit 100
percent clearance in 24 hours.
The University does not follow
the normal Lawrence city ordi-
nance of snow removal, which
gives property owners 48 hours
after snowfall to clear public
sidewalks before receiving a cita-
tion.

because of ice, such as the stairs outside of Anschutz Library. The size of campus makes it difcult to clear completely.

Senior guard Sherron Collins drives to the basket for his fnal shot in Allen Fieldhouse with 33 seconds left in the second half Wednesday night. The basket gave Kansas a 19-point lead at 82-63,
fnishing with 17 points in 38 minutes.

Collins scores 17,
ends night with
emotional speech
The loss may cost
Kansas a place in
NCAA tournament
Y
ou often hear certain
pseudo profundities
repeated to describe a
given sporting event. An arena
might be described as electric,
the crowd noise deafening, a
game huge. Usually, these are
lifeless superlatives, reeking of
hyperbole.
But not last night. From
the moment Sherron Collins
stepped onto James Naismith
court tears already beginning
to leak from his eyes a
thesaurus wouldnt hold the
right vocabulary to describe the
greatness of the occasion.
It was the perfect stage
senior night against a top-five
rival for Collins to have a
perfect send-off. He would bust
out of his recent shooting slump
and, in so doing, lead Kansas to
an affirming victory.
Reality has a way of offering
up last-second script re-writes,
however. Last night, it did just
that. Kansas got its victory,
of course, but not on Collins
shoulders. And that makes it all
the more powerful.
The first half, it was Xavier
Henry, a freshman, draining
the three-point baskets Collins
missed. It was Henry who,
despite registering two early
fouls, scored 15 first-half points,
leading the Jayhawks to a 45-38
advantage.
But the night wasnt about
Henry, who, like Collins, may
well have been playing his final
game at Allen Fieldhouse. And
it was not solely about Collins,
as the pre-game narrative
dictated.
Rather, it was a coming
together of things the
atmosphere, the explosive

With 30 seconds to go in the
game, Sherron Collins buried his
head in the stomach of junior center
Cole Aldrich and wrapped his arms
around him. As a senior guard,
Collins' time at Allen Fieldhouse
was up.
I saw the subs coming, Collins
said, so I knew it was it.
It was the perfect way to go out,
defeating No. 5 Kansas State 82-65
to capture the regular season Big
12 title.
But Collins emotions didnt
translate on the court, scoring 17
points on 5-for-15 shooting.
After the game, Self addressed
the crowd for senior night. He list-
ed all the faults Collins possessed
when he first arrived at Kansas:
moody, hard-headed, brash.
Its all true, Collins said. Im
stubborn, cocky, but I think those
are my best traits.
Self kept the jokes rolling in the
media room after seeing all the
attention directed toward Collins.
Why do you want to interview
a guy who went 1-for-9 the first
half? Self said. I dont understand
that at all.
Collins kept driving and kept
shooting, but many of his shots
werent falling. He came out of
the game with a purpose, split-
ting the Wildcats defense, but he
said he was too excited to start the
game with all the pressure. Still,
Self wasnt about to tell him to stop
shooting.
He can make one, and all of a
sudden that can become four or five
in a row, and thats the difference in
the game, Self said.
Collins 17 points actually were
the difference but not the reason
for Kansas victory.
The Jayhawks started hot, jump-
ing out to a 18-6 lead. Despite a
couple of late first half runs by
Kansas State, the Jayhawks went
into halftime up 45-38.
At the 17:06 mark in the second
half, K-State senior guard Denis
Clemente tied the game at 45 with
a three-pointer. From then on, it
was run after run by both teams.
Kansas made the final defining run
late with a 16-2 burst.
The two other players carrying
the load for Kansas were fresh-

19 points, and sophomore for-

LINCOLN, Neb. Kansas
senior leader, guard Sade Morris,
trudged off the court at the
University of Nebraska-Lincoln
with her second foul and still 12
minutes to play in the first half.
Suddenly, there was no fallback.
In an attempt to inbound the
ball, the Jayhawks scrambled in
circles, but they were muffed by
red and white jerseys. Nebraska
freshman Lindsey Moore swiped
junior guard Marisha Browns
desperation pass, and the
onslaught continued.
No. 3 Nebraska hammered
Kansas 77-52
on its senior
night in front
of a booming
sell-out crowd
at the Bob
Devaney Sports
Center. Twenty-
two turnovers,
the Jayhawks
e v e r - pr e s e nt
Achilles heel,
crumbled their possessions and
the game. They fell to 5-10 in the
Big 12 and, barring a miraculous
run in the conference tournament,
likely terminated their NCAA
tournament chances.
I dont think we could have
scripted it any better than this,
Nebraska coach Connie Yori said.
It just worked out perfectly.
T h e
Cornhuskers
hit their first
four shots and
jumped out to
a 9-0 lead in
the opening
two and a half
minutes. In the
first half, they
never slowed
and led 49-32
at the break.
We knew that if we threw the
ball ahead, we could flatten their
defense out, Nebraska junior
Dominique Kelley said. As a
result, numerous people got to the
basket.
After halftime, the Jayhawks
were both unproductive and
uninspired. They scored just two
points in the first eight minutes of
the second half and displayed little
to no effort in boxing out their
opponents for rebounds.
As a deflated Kansas team
sleep-walked through the majority
of the second half, the big red
celebration began. Griffin was
subbed out with 6:46 remaining,
greeted by high fives from her
teammates and a roaring ovation
from the stands.
Even before the opening tipoff,
senior night at the Devaney Center
seemed more like a celebration
than a showdown. Kansas
passionless performance served

W
hen Oklahoma State students
rushed the court after defeat-
ing Kansas last Saturday, they
sent the message that they didnt believe
the Cowboys could defeat the Jayhawks
when the game started.
Really, how idiotic was that, Oklahoma
State? Youre a tournament team and you
rushed the court after defeating another
tournament team?
Is it just me or does rushing the court
mean you just pulled off something so
miraculous that it deserves an impromp-
tu celebration?
How in the world can beating a team
that will be in the same post-season tour-
nament as you be considered miraculous
or improbable? Oklahoma State fans dis-
played no confidence that their team had
any chance in beating Kansas by rush-
ing the court. Good luck in the NCAA
Tournament with that attitude. You
might get worn out rushing the court
after every team you beat. On second
thought, you might not.
Oklahoma State fans take note of the
following:
On Jan. 18, Kansas State defeated the
number one team in the country at the
time, Texas, at home on national TV. The
students began chanting at the end of the
game, Dont rush the court. This is
the smartest thing Ive ever heard from
the Kansas State student section, which
two years earlier rushed the court after
defeating Kansas for the first time at
home since 1983. This years K-State stu-
dent section displayed the right message:
We beat the number one team in the
country. Who cares? Were not going to
storm the court and celebrate like we had
no chance to win in the first place. Were
as good as anybody.
The very next week on Jan. 26, a
likely NIT-bound South Carolina team
defeated then No. 1 Kentucky at home
on national TV. They rushed the court.
South Carolina was 11-8 at the time.
They had lost the last seven previous
games theyd played against number
one ranked teams. Kentucky was unde-
feated at the time. Even though The
Southeastern Conference fined South
Carolinas athletic department $25,000
for it, the Gamecock fans justifiably
rushed the court.
I hope that Kansas basketball never
dips to the level where beating anyone
else at home would be considered a
miracle and thus warranting fans to rush
the court. And afer Wednesday nights
awesome victory against No. 5 Kansas
State, I just cant visualize that happening
anytime soon.

Kentucky clinches share of SEC title
By CHARLES ODUM
associated Press
ATHENS, Ga. John Wall
had 24 points and No. 3 Kentucky
clinched at least a share of
the Southeastern Conference
regular-season championship
by beating Georgia 80-68 on
Wednesday night.
Patrick Patterson added 17
points and 10 rebounds for the
Wildcats, who scored the first
12 points of the second half and
maintained control from there.
Wall hit three three-pointers
to help the Wildcats shake their
recent shooting slump. The star
freshman added six assists and
three steals.
Kentucky (28-2, 13-2
SEC) moved one game ahead
of Vanderbilt in the race for
the leagues best record. The
Wildcats, who swept Vanderbilt,
already own the tiebreaker
and the top seed in the SEC
tournament.
Kentucky, recovering from a
loss at Tennessee, also moved
closer to a No. 1 seed in the
NCAA tournament.
Kentucky, which won a share
of its 44th SEC title, snapped
a streak of four straight home
wins for Georgia (13-15, 5-10).
The Wildcats led 40-36
at halftime before turning up
their defensive pressure in the
opening minutes of the second
half. Georgia, which had six
turnovers in the first half, added
six turnovers in the first three
minutes of the second half.
Kentucky had eight steals and
14 blocks, including a career-
high six by freshman DeMarcus
Cousins.
Wall opened the second half
with a 3-pointer and added a
three-point play in the 12-0 run.
Eric Bledsoes steal and two free
throws capped the run for a
52-36 lead.
J e r e m y
Price led
G e o r g i a
with 19
points. Ricky
McPhee has
12 points,
i n c l u d i n g
three three-
p o i n t e r s
to lead a
c o me b a c k
attempt midway through the
second half. McPhees three with
5:16 remaining cut the Kentucky
lead to 72-63. Patterson scored
to push the Wildcats lead back
to double figures.
Georgias Trey Thompkins,
who was called for his fourth
foul with 11:03 remaining, had
12 points. Travis Leslie had eight
points and 10 rebounds.
Kentucky made only two of 22
three-point attempts in Saturdays
74-65 loss at Tennessee. A recent
trend of poor shooting from the
p e r i me t e r
dropped the
Wildcats to
11th in the
league in
t hr e e - poi nt
shooting at
29.1 percent.
T h e
W i l d c a t s
showed from
the start they
would not
be shy about shooting from
beyond the three-point line.
Darius Miller missed a three on
Kentuckys first possession, but
Wall made two threes in the first
6 minutes. Darnell Dodson, who
had 11 points, hit back-to-back
threes later in the opening half.
Georgia took a 23-17 lead
midway through the first half.
Kentucky, recovering
from a loss at Tennessee,
also moved closer to a
No. 1 seed in the NCAA
tournament.

Georgia, Kentucky is

Continuing with an ofseason

Tuesday that Kansas ofered

Berglund, from Highlands

has ofers from Minnesota, Utah
and Colorado State.
According to Rivals, the
6-foot-4, 205-pound quarterback
passed for 2,221 yards and 30
touchdowns as a junior.
I know they have a great
program, Berglund told Rivals.
I know they have a new head
coach who played quarterback
in college, and I hear hes a great
guy and a guy I really want to
talk to and really get to know.

Kansas ofered North Miami

edly Virgiles frst.
The 6-foot-2, 210 pound line-

He has some great stuff, said

quality pitches.
Kelly admitted he had some but-

TAMPA, Fla. Alex Rodriguez

Rodriguez singled, No. 98 Colin
Curtis hit a three-run homer in
the ninth inning and the New

Pirates 6-3 Wednesday with owner
George Steinbrenner in attendance
to watch the World Series champi-

Rodriguez has been contacted
by federal investigators regarding
a Canadian doctor accused of sell-
ing an unapproved drug. A-Rod
said there was nothing new to
report regarding a pending inter-
view with government officials.
Dr. Anthony Galea is facing
four charges in his country related
to the drug known as Actovegin,
which is extracted from calf s blood
and used for healing. His assistant

DUNEDIN, Fla. Just being
back on the mound was not
enough for Jeremy Bonderman.
Bonderman worked two score-
less innings Wednesday in the
Detroit Tigers 7-6 win over the
Toronto Blue Jays after miss-
ing most of the last two seasons
because of a blood clot in his right
shoulder that required surgery.
I was just all over the place.
The adrenaline got me out of sync
a little bit, Bonderman said. I
was able to get out of it and (in)
the second inning I just kind of
tried to stay within myself and
work on using the mechanics Ive
been working on, just trying to
stay on top of the ball and let my
arm catch up.
Bonderman, a 14-game winner
in 2005 and again in 2006, and
winner of 11 in 2007 before hav-
ing surgery in June 2008, struck
out three and allowed one hit.
He allowed a single and a walk
to the first two
batters he faced
before strik-
ing out Adam
Lind and, after
a double steal,
striking out
Vernon Wells
and getting Lyle
Overbay on a
routine ground-
er. He had a
1-2-3 second inning.
Im not satisfied with having
one good outing, Bonderman
added. This is a long haul for me.
Its one day at a time.
The teams combined for eight
of their 13 runs in the final two
innings. The Blue Jays took a 5-2
lead with two runs in the top of
the eighth, then Toronto charged
back with
four against
Dan Schlereth
in the bottom
half, three
on Chris
Lu b a ns k i s
home run.
But the
Tigers two-
out rally in
the ninth on
Wiklin Ramirezs single, Casper
Wells pinch-hit triple to left-cen-
ter field and Mike Rabelos RBI
single to center gave the Tigers
the win.
Ricky Romero, bidding for the
No. 1 spot in the rotation vacated
by the traded Roy Halladay, made
one damaging pitch in his two
innings of work, a bases-empty,
wind-aided homer to right by
Brent Dlugach with two outs in
the second.
It was a tough day out there
with the wind blowing, one of
those days you love to be a left-
handed hitter, Blue Jays manager
Cito Gaston said.
Romero gave up two hits, had
a strikeout and no walks. Gaston
said Romero looked a lot better
this time than in early last spring.
Control problems, Gaston
said. Now you dont see that.
Theres a little bit of confidence

Giants in 10 innings
PeoRIA, Ariz. Tim Lincecum
has struggled in his spring debut
for the San Francisco Giants, al-
lowing three runs in one inning of
an 8-7, 10-inning victory over the
Seattle Mariners on Wednesday.
The two-time Cy young Award
winner was expected to throw
two innings. He worked only the
29-pitch frst and gave up two
run-scoring hits.
The Giants went up 3-0 in the
top of the frst. In the bottom half,
Ichiro Suzuki reached on an error
by frst baseman Aubrey Huf.

Wednesdays game against Kansas State was just
one more game in several Kansas streaks one more
home-court victory, one more win for the winningest
player in KU history. But it was also one game that
stood alone, as the last home game for senior Sherron
Collins. As the fans made clear, it was Collins night.
Several fans in the front rowhold signs over posters featuring images fromsenior guard Sherron Collins

WOMENS BASKETBALL REWIND
as the confirmation. Lethargic
freshman forward Carolyn
Davis was the poster-child.
Davis had anchored Kansas
offense since her first start in a
72-59 victory against Missouri
on Jan. 17. Against Nebraska,
she was held scoreless in 20
minutes of play.
I cant play you if youre
just going to jog up the floor
and make it a layup drill,
Henrickson said. I thought a
good place for her to sit was
the bench if she didnt want to
run. Theres no running on the
bench.
It was truly a tale of two
opposites.
Nebraska out-rebounded
Kansas 17-5 on the offensive
glass. It sunk 24 of 30 free
throws and moved its record
to 28-0 overall, 15-0 in the Big
12.
Meanwhile, Kansas has been
blown out by an average of 24
points in its last two games
and dropped to 15-13 overall. It
seems likely that even an upset
against No. 15 Texas A&M
Saturday will not be enough to
salvage its NCAA tournament
hopes.
Weve relied on Carolyn and
Monica a lot, and those two
might be driving the struggle
bus right now, Henrickson
said. Thats my biggest concern
leaving here. They havent been
themselves.
Edited by Anna Archibald
WOMEN'S
(continued from 1B)
Annette Davis
Its hard to hand out a game ball to anyone
in a game like this, but Davis quietly impressed.
While most of her production took place late
in the second half when the game was already
decided, Davis connected on all four of her shot
attempts. She also logged four rebounds and
one block in 11 minutes played.
Good shooting
Despite not reaching their average shooting percentage on the
season, the Jayhawks still had a decent night shooting the ball. Kan-
sas made 23-of-52 attempts from the feld, which is good for a 44.2
shooting percentage. In the frst half, the Jayhawks even shot better
than 50 percent from the feld. That still wasnt enough to get the
Jayhawks close to another upset opportunity.
Carolyn Davis
Davis played one of her more forgettable
games last night as she fnished with no points
on two attempts. Her lack of production and
efort, in some instances, earned her a spot on
the bench for much of the game. She ended
the game with only 20 minutes of playing time
despite a lack of foul trouble.
Point guard parody
Junior guard Rhea Codio made her frst start of the season and
her career last night. She replaced senior guard LaChelda Jacobs
who had started 12 straight games after freshman guard Angel
Goodrich went down with injury. Codio earned the majority of the
minutes in the game and fnished with a 1:1 assist to turnover ratio,
which topped Jacobs 2:3 turnover ratio.
Coming out of halftime in the game at
Lawrence, they made a huge run. That was
something all week that we talked about not
coming out of halftime and giving them the
momentum.

Kelley
Grifn
Nebraska hit 24-of-30 free throw attempts,
an absurdly large number of attempts. Junior
Dominique Kelley and senior Kelsey Grifn, the
Cornhuskers top two scorers, totaled 10 free
throws between them. Kansas attempted just
nine free throws as a team. By giving Nebraska
so many looks at the charity stripe, Kansas
allowed Nebraska to pile up easy and uncon-
tested points. To give a numerical picture of its
importance, Nebraska converted 24 free throws
and Kansas lost the game by 25 points.

LINCOLN, Neb. The stat
sheet from No. 3 Nebraskas 77-52
trashing of Kansas reveals a litany of
ways Kansas lost the game.
Theres the fact that no Kansas
player scored more than 10 points
while Nebraska had four players
score in double figures.
Theres also the 24 points the
Cornhuskers scored on free throws,
on 21 more free throws attempts
than the Jayhawks.
We just didnt come ready to
play, senior guard Sade Morris said.
Theres no other way to put it.
No matter how the stats are bro-
ken down, theyll continually reveal
a Jayhawks team that was simply
outmatched in just about every way.
Even the hope of avenging a close
loss at home to the Cornhuskers
earlier in the season was not enough
to motivate the Jayhawks to victory.
I thought, compared to the game
down in Lawrence, we did a better
job of taking them out of the things
they wanted to do, Nebraska junior
guard Dominique Kelly said.
The pitfalls the Jayhawks encoun-
tered in Lincoln Wednesday night
arent new by any means as many of
the same struggles have typified the
Jayhawks last three road games, all
of which they have lost by 17 points
or more.
Were just not doing a good job
of staying together, and thats some-
thing weve been trying to work
on, Morris said. You could see it
in the way we played. We tried to
stay together, but we just kind of
fell apart.
Unfortunately for Kansas, the
disparities between the scores of
its current three game road-losing
streak is just the first in a long list of
similarities between the games.
For example, the Jayhawks have
failed to surpass their season shoot-
ing percentage of 45.5 percent from
the field. Although Kansas did come
close to that last night, shooting
44.2 percent from the field, which
actually beat Nebraskas 39.7 shoot-
ing percentage, it was not enough to
overcome the Cornhuskers supreme
free throw shooting.
How do you manufacture
points? You manufacture them at
the free throw line, coach Bonnie
Henrickson said. You go in transi-
tion, you get the offensive board,
and you drive it. They do those
three things really, really well.
The Jayhawks have averaged 18.3
turnovers per game.
Its just not us taking of the ball.
Its not us making the right deci-
sions, Morris said. We did that to
ourselves.
To top it off Kansas two lead-
ing scorers since the injury to
Danielle McCray, in freshmen
Monica Engelman and Carolyn
Davis, have struggled to produce.
Against Nebraska, the duo man-
aged only nine points, all scored by
Engelman.
Weve got to keep fighting the
frustration, Morris said. We just
need to keep fighting and fighting
and know that we need to stick
together.

ward Markieff Morris, who came off
the bench with 10 points and nine
rebounds.
It was an emotional night for all
of us, Morris said. Its going to be
tough not seeing him next year, but
we went out with a bang.
Collins finished the night with the
traditional senior speech. He called
Self the night before in an attempt to
get ideas, and he said the end result
was pretty good.
He thanked all the coaches for
helping him improve. He thanked a
sobbing Brady Morningstar and his
family for making the transition to
Lawrence from Chicago easier. And
he thanked the fans for all the sup-
port theyve given him.
This will be a night Ill remember
for the rest of my life, Collins said.
Edited by Michael Holtz
counter-punches traded by the
two teams, the sheer intensity of
affairs that defined the night.
Most of all, it was the magnitude
of the victory and the emphatic
manner in which it was achieved.
Kansas got the kind of affirming
victory that it needed, the
kind of statement that answers
the questions asked following
Saturdays loss.
Make no mistake about it:
Kansas State deserves its top
five ranking. The Wildcats are a
very good team, and they played
very well. On another night, in
another venue, against another
team, their effort almost certainly
would have earned a victory.
But not last night, not in Allen
Fieldhouse, not against Kansas.
Instead of a victory, K-States
efforts earned it only a rather
convincing 82-65 beating.
Not because of some
superhuman effort from Collins,
but because of a fantastic team
game played by Kansas. And
thats encouraging even
necessary following the
loss at Oklahoma State. When
Collins struggled to find his
shot in Stillwater, the rest of the
Jayhawks couldnt compensate,
and they couldnt play the kind
of lockdown defense Bill Self 's
teams are known for. But against
K-State, the Jayhawks as a whole
excelled, reaffirming their status
as one of the nations best teams.
And that, for this team, is
what its ultimately about, not
one player, or one game, or even
another conference title. This
year, as Collins noted in his post-
game speech, is about winning
the National Championship.
Last night, Kansas did what it
needed to do to get closer to that
victory.
Edited by Sarah Bluvas
BY TIM DWYER

It was fitting on the night when
Sherron Collins thanked his team-
mates and coaches before taking any
credit for himself that he would be
carried by those people to an 82-65
victory against No. 5 Kansas State.
Were like brothers, Collins said
as he addressed the crowd at center
court. This is a family.
His "brothers" picked up the slack
when Collins went 1-for-9 in the
first half.
Xavier Henry, in what likely could
have been his last game in Allen
Fieldhouse as well, had 15 points
on 5-of-6 shooting before the break.
Markieff Morris came off the bench
for 12 of the first 20 minutes and had
eight points and five rebounds four
offensive.
In the beginning I was really jit-
tery, Collins said. I was a little too
anxious and wasnt playing well. I was
shooting quick shots and guarded
shots, but the coaches were just tell-
ing me to relax and play the game.
I just had to take a couple of deep
breaths.
As the media horded around
Collins after the game, Self had a little
fun at his prized seniors expense.
Why are yall wanting to talk to
a guy that went 1-for-9 in the first
half? Self said. I dont get it.
He paused and then added, I
thought that was funny.
Though the night was mostly
about Collins and his last game in
Allen Fieldhouse, Self knew going in
that Kansas needed a win to clinch
the Big 12 title.
Adding to the intrigue was that,
for the first time in 52 years, both
the Jayhawks and Wildcats were
ranked in the top five for a Sunflower
Showdown.
Usually, the home team does play
pretty well on senior night, Self said,
but I thought tonight was a little dif-
ferent, because there was really a lot
on the line. Not only are you playing
your in-state rival, but you need to
for sure win the game to win the title
outright.
It was conceivable, with so much
going on around them, that the
Jayhawks would come out with a
little too much juice for Wednesdays
game. Not a problem. Morris, who
has one of the calmest demeanors
on the team, said that Self just let the
Jayhawks ride their emotions into
the game.
The Jayhawks used a hot start
they took an early 18-6 lead and
a similarly hot finish after the
Wildcats tied it at 45, the Jayhawks
pulled off a 28-12 run to put away
an obviously talented Kansas State
team that was playing for a chance
at a No. 1 seed in the NCAA tourna-
ment.
Once we get started, Coach just
lets us go, Morris said. Coach, you
know, he didnt try to get us hyped,
because we came in the game and
we were already hyped. We started
the game with a lot of energy and we
finished with a little energy.

Collins was ice cold in the frst half, knocking
down just 1-of-9 shots before the break, but
picked it up in the second for his last half at
Allen Fieldhouse. Collins hit 4-of-6 fromthe
feld, including a mini-run of his own when he
connected for seven straight points to build
the kansas lead to 13. Collins fnished with 17
points and four assists in his 125th victory as a
Jayhawk.
Every time after we met with Sherron, we
thought to ourselves, What a hardheaded,
moody, stubborn, cocky, pain in the butt.'
And after coaching himfor four years, noth-
ings really changed. Theres guys whove
scored more points and guys whove had
more assists and steals, but very fewkansas

BIG 12 BASKETBALL
Vasquez, Maryland
topple Duke, 79-72
BY DAVID GINSBURG
Associated Press
COLLEGE PARK, Md. Greivis
Vasquez saved his best for last.
Vasquez scored 20 points, in-
cluding a clutch basket with 37
seconds lef, and No. 22 Maryland
beat fourth-ranked Duke 79-72
We d n e s d a y
night to move
into a tie with
the Blue Devils
atop the Atlantic
Coast Confer-
ence standings.
It was the f-
nal home game
for Vasquez,
who was hon-
ored with se-
niors Landon
Milbourne and Eric Hayes before
the game.
Aferward, all three were
mobbed with their teammates as
fans rushed the court to celebrate
Marylands frst win over Duke in
seven tries.
Jordan Williams had 15 points
and 11 rebounds for the Terrapins
(22-7, 12-3), who have won six
straight since losing by 21 at Duke
on Feb. 13.
Nolan Smith scored 20 for Duke
(25-5, 12-3) and Jon Scheyer had
19. Te defeat ended the Blue Dev-
ils eight-game winning streak.
Both teams have one game lef
in the regular season. Maryland
travels to Virginia on Saturday, and
Duke hosts North Carolina.
Duke center Brian Zoubek, who
had 16 points and 17 rebounds in
Dukes earlier win over Maryland,
fnished with four points and 13
boards.
Te fnal minutes featured sev-
eral outstanding shots, each one
more important than the last.
Scheyer hit a 3-pointer to put
Duke up 63-60 with 5:25 to go,
and Vasquez tied it with a jumper
from beyond the arc. Scheyer then
scored on a drive, but Maryland an-
swered with a hook shot in the lane
from Adrian Bowie and a fadeaway
jumper by Vasquez.
It was 69-all
before Williams
scored on a fol-
low. Ten, afer
Duke missed
twice, Vasquez
tucked the ball
to his chest and
bulled his way
to the basket
before launch-
ing a shot
that dropped
through the net, making it 73-69.
Sean Mosley added two free
throws with 26.2 seconds lef.
Maryland fnished unbeaten at
home in the ACC and 15-1 overall.
Afer an
e mo t i o n a l
ceremony for
the seniors,
the Terrapins
thrilled the
sellout crowd
by getting of
to a sizzling
start.
Mar yl and
led 7-0, 19-7
and 33-19 be-
fore Duke settled down. Te Blue
Devils took their frst lead when
Scheyer opened the second half
with a 3 to make it 41-40.
Duke led 47-44 before Williams
made a three-point play, Bowie
scored on a drive and Milbourne
added a dunk. Afer a layup by
Scheyer, Bowie connected from
long range to put the Terps up 54-
49.
But Smith hit a tough base-
line jumper and then converted a
three-point play to tie it with 9:11
lef, and afer a series of misses by
both teams, Smiths driving layup
put Duke back in front.
Te lead went back and forth un-
til Marylands closing 10-3 burst.
Te Blue Devils ended the frst
half with a 19-7 run to get within
40-38.
Duke missed its frst six shots
and fell behind 7-0 before a tip-in
by Zoubek ended the drought. Mil-
bourne followed with a 3-pointer,
but he picked up his second foul on
Marylands next possession and was
forced to take a seat on the bench.
Te Blue Devils were 1 for 8 and
trailed 10-2 when ofcials noticed a
snag in the net and replaced it. Kyle
Singler promptly drilled a 3 before a
reverse layup by Hayes and a three-
point play by Williams of a no-
look pass from Vasquez sparked
an 11-3 run that
made it 21-8.
At that point,
Scheyer, Singler
and Smith were a
collective 1 for 9.
Te trio ac-
counted for
Dukes next four
baskets, and a
layup by Zoubek
got the Blue Dev-
ils to 25-19. Mos-
ley then hit a jumper for Maryland,
and successive 3-pointers by Hayes
and Mosley boosted the margin to
14.
It was 40-29 before Duke ended
the half with a three-point play by
Singler and 3-pointers by Smith
and Scheyer.
Terrapin fans rushed
the court after the game,
which was guard Greivis
Vasquezs last home game
for Maryland.
Duke was up 63-60 with
5:25 to go, when Vasquez
tied the game with a
three-pointer. The end of
the game featured several
spectacular baskets.
A&M defeats OSU with defense
BY KRISTIE RIEKEN
Associated Press
COLLEGE STATION, Texas
(AP) Donald Sloan scored 19
points and No. 23 Texas A&M
led from start to finish in a 76-61
win over Oklahoma State on
Wednesday night.
The Aggies (21-8, 10-5 Big 12)
used 3-point shooting to take an
early lead and a 14-0 run in the
opening minutes of the second half
to keep it against the Cowboys,
who were coming off Saturdays big
win over then-No. 1 Kansas.
Texas A&M had its 18-point
lead cut to eight before outscor-
ing the Cowboys 11-3 to stretch
the cushion to 70-54 with about
three minutes left. Sloan, a senior
playing in his last home game, and
B.J. Holmes both had 3s during
that spurt.
James Anderson led the Cowboys
(20-9, 8-7) with 27 points.
Oklahoma State shot poorly,
finishing just under 34 percent,
while the Aggies shot 53 percent
overall and almost 48 percent on
3-pointers.
The Aggies were up by 18 before
Oklahoma State went on a 12-2
run, with 10 points from Anderson,
to cut the lead to 59-51 with 8 min-
utes remaining.
Texas A&M used a 14-0 run
to start the second half to turn
a three-point lead into a 52-35
advantage with about 17 minutes
to go.
The win improved A&Ms record
to 18-1 this season when holding
an opponent under 70 points.

BY ANDREW TAYLOR
ataylor@kansan.com
If eight teams from the Big 12
earn bids to the NCAA tournament,
which according to ESPNs Charlie
Cremes most recent bracketology
is a very strong possibility, it will
mark the second time in three years
the conference has accomplished
the feat. To better illustrate which
Big 12 teams have the best chances
of making it, the conference will be
examined through the eyes of Wall
Street.
NO. 3 NEbRASKA (27-0,
14-0): bUY
A rematch against Kansas State is
Nebraskas only remaining regular
season game. In the teams first
meeting Jan. 23, the Cornhuskers
throttled the Wildcats by 15 in
Lincoln. The change of locale
shouldnt affect Nebraska as it looks
to cruise into next weeks confer-
ence tournament.
NO. 13 IOwA STATE (22-5,
10-4): bUY
After a 10-point loss to Nebraska
on Feb. 17, Iowa State has rattled off
three straight victories in a favorable
Big 12 schedule. In a conference
that has seven ranked teams, the
Cyclones will have had to play only
one of them in their final five regu-
lar season games.
NO. 12 OKLAHOmA (20-9,
10-5): SELL
Since losing to No. 1 Connecticut
Feb. 15, Oklahoma has lost two of
its last four games. The most recent
of which was a 23-point thrash-
ing at the hands of No. 14 Texas
A&M. A lack of physical play typi-
fied that loss to the Aggies, and its
something the Sooners will need to
find for the upcoming conference
tournament.
NO. 14 TExAS A&m (21-7,
9-6): bUY
The Aggies opened conference
play with a 4-5 record, but they
have since won five of their last six
games on their way to a possible
first-round bye in the conference
tournament. Texas A&M is play-
ing some of its best basketball of
the season right now, and it will
be a tough team to handle in the
postseason.
NO. 15 bAYLOR (21-7,
8-6): bUY
With freshman sensation
Britney Griner at the helm, the
Bears have catapulted three spots
in the conference rankings in just
two weeks time. In the stretch
of four straight victories that put
Baylor in that position, Griner
averaged 19.3 points per game, 10
rebounds per game and 5.8 blocks
per game.
NO. 20 OKLAHOmA
STATE (20-8, 8-6): SELL
After opening the conference
season 6-1, the Cowgirls looked
poised to make a run at the Big
12 regular season championship.
Five straight losses, started by a
21-point loss to Nebraska, effec-
tively ended any hope Oklahoma
State had. Oklahoma State has
made a little improvement in its
two most recent games, which
included a victory against Texas.
NO. 22 TExAS (19-9, 8-6):
SELL
The rigors of a tough conference
schedule have taken their toll on
Texas. The Longhorns lost three
straight games to ranked oppo-
nents. Poor shooting was their
Achilles heel during that stretch,
as the Longhorns never shot better
than 36 percent from the field.
TExAS TEcH (17-11, 5-9):
bUY
Three weeks ago, Texas Tech was
sitting on a 1-7 conference record,
and it was all but left for dead. Since
then, though, the Red Raiders have
managed to resurrect their season
by winning four of their last six
games, and they have even entered
the conversation for an NCAA tour-
nament bid.
KANSAS (15-12, 5-9):
SELL
The Jayhawks once-hopeful
thoughts of earning a berth in the
NCAA tournament have all but
diminished. After losing five of six
games, ESPNs Creme has Kansas
listed as the first team out in the
consideration of tournament berth
in his most recent bracket.
KANSAS STATE
(12-16, 4-10): SELL
Five straight losses have effec-
tively derailed the Wildcats sea-
son. Kansas State hasnt been com-
pletely dismantled as it even held a
21-point advantage over Oklahoma
in the second half before eventu-
ally losing. Without the victories to
back up solid play, though, Kansas
State will likely have a very brief
postseason.
cOLORADO (13-14, 3-11):
SELL
The grueling Big 12 conference
has not been kind to the Buffaloes,
and they have lost against ranked
conference foes eight times by an
average of more than 10 points.
Colorados only hope of making the
NCAA tournament is to win the
Big 12 tournament, which, given
its performance so far this season,
seems unlikely.
mISSOURI (11-16, 1-13):
SELL
To cap off an underachieving sea-
son in which the Tigers have expe-
rienced a nine-game losing streak,
Missouri athletics announced that
coach Cindy Stein will not resign
following the conclusion of the sea-
son. Since guiding Missouri to a
tournament berth in 2006, Steins
teams have gone only 12-50 in the
Big 12.
