Last week against North Dakota
State, the fans at Memorial
Stadium booed the Jayhawks as
the clock wound down on their
6-3 loss.
So imagine the players surprise
when many of those same fans
rushed the field after their 28-25
upset against No. 15 Georgia Tech
on Saturday.
You know how it is. Usually
its all about Kansas basketball,
senior linebacker Justin Springer
said. Seeing that, it kind of
brought a tear to my eye.
What a difference a week
made.
Freshman running back James
Sims became the first freshman
in school history to rush for 100
yards in his debut, freshman
quarterback Jordan Webb threw
for three touchdowns in his first
start and the Jayhawks (1-1) won
their first game since Oct. 10,
2009.
Sims, filling in for injured
freshman running back Deshaun
Sands, ran for 101 yards on 17
carries and scored a touchdown
run that would give the Jayhawks
a 21-17 lead they would not sur-
render.
The performance was one
of many unexpected breakouts
against the Yellow Jackets, but
sophomore wide receiver Bradley
McDougald said he knew the
freshman had it in him.
He is a great running back,
McDougald said. He reminds
me of Toben (Opurum) last year.
Thats what the guys in the locker
room were talking about.
Other than a few snaps out of
the Wildcat formation for soph-
omore quarterback Kale Pick,
Webb had the keys to the car
in his first career start. He fin-
ished 18-for-29 with 179 yards
passing, three touchdowns and
a hard-luck interception off a
McDougald bobble.
Two freshmen, Webb and
Sims, carried the Jayhawk offense
against the defending ACC cham-
pions. As the fans mobbed Webb
and his teammates after the vic-
tory, the hope for what might
develop in the next four years was
on display for everyone involved.
It was awesome. It was exhila-
rating, Webb said. It was just
cool to see the fans back into
it hopefully. Hopefully theyre
back into it every week. I think its
going to be a fun year.
The defense was able to contain
the much-hyped Yellow Jacket
(1-1) triple-option offense, lim-
iting senior quarterback Joshua
Nesbitt to a 33.3 percent comple-
tion rate. Nesbitt finished 5-for-
15 with 116 yards passing and
a touchdown, but the Jayhawks
were able to subdue his true
threat: the ground game. Nesbitt
averaged 2.2 yards on 15 carries.
When the other team fires
the corner about every play, you
probably should be able to throw
one and complete it, said Georgia
Tech coach Paul Johnson.
With Georgia Tech down to
their final down, Nesbitt missed
wide-open receiver and the
Jayhawks were able to run out
the clock on their first victory
over a top 15 ranked school
at Memorial Stadium since
1984.
Just as he told his team last
week when they lost to their
FCS opponent, Gill reiterated
that this victory is just one step
in his goal of returning the pro-
gram back to prominence.
No, we didnt prove any-
thing, Gill said. Its just one
ball game. Were here to be suc-
cessful over a long period of time,
many years. One game doesnt
define our program, two games
doesnt define our program.

COMMENTARY
T
he Jayhawks ended their
second week with the
record we all predicted: 1-1.
What no one expected was
the way it panned out. And for
Kansas, it was actually for the
better.
Just imagine it: Senior kicker
Jacob Branstetter kicks the game-
tying field goal against North
Dakota State. Kansas goes on to
win in overtime. The Jayhawks
start the season with a victory, but
a hollow one.
Come week two, the Jayhawks
have their losing streak snapped
and they werent humiliated while
ESPN ranked them the fifth worst
team in college football. So there
is a little bit of urgency, just not
as much.
The Jayhawks would then come
out against the Yellow Jackets and
play decent. Then all of a sudden,
those option plays are going for
10 yards a pop. Kansas is gashed
and the sails of their week one
victory are emptied out a bit.
But hey, the season has gone
as expected and everyone walks
around as if they know exactly
how it is going to play out.
Most of the players said after
the game they played Georgia
Tech as they would any other
time in any situation.
You focus on a single game at
a time, junior cornerback Isiah
Barfield said. Whether you lose
the game before, it doesnt deter-
mine how youre going to play the
next game.
Hogwash.
The anemic Jayhawk offense in
game one led to starting freshman
quarterback Jordan Webb in game
two. Webb proceeded to play a
perfect first quarter on his part,
completing 10 of 12 passes with
93 yards and a touchdown.
For some inexplicable reason,
Webb broke the chains restraining
the offense that Kale Pick could
not. And again, depending on
the outcome of the North Dakota
State game, this might not have
happened.
And give credit to Webb for
being the only player honest
about the desire to win Saturdays
game.
I think were definitely more
motivated since we lost last week,
he said. Its all about execution
and playing hard. I think were
going to do that every week.
Thats all weve got to do and well
be fine.
So instead of playing to expec-
tations set for them this season,
the Jayhawks have done what is
best for them and proved they
can contend with a ranked oppo-
nent. The confidence they earned
Saturday far outweighs the trag-
edy in their first game.
Sophomore wide receiver
Bradley McDougald said Kansas
apparently had that confidence
before the game started. It was
all of us outside the team that
needed convincing.
We were very confident, he
said. I dont know if the fans
were confident.
After Saturday, the confidence
level cant be any higher for this
team.

Senior linebacker Justin Springer and sophomore safety Lubbock Smith wrap up Georgia Tech running back Orwin Smith during the frst quarter. Springer led the teamwith 15 total tackles as the Jayhawks earned their frst victory of the season
over Georgia Tech Saturday afternoon.
team unites for unexpected win
BY MEGAN RUPP
mrupp@kansan.com
The last time senior linebacker
Justin Springer had a game like
he did on Saturday, he earned
himself a spot on the Jayhawk
football team.
Springer said his 18 tackles in
a high school playoff game led to
his recruitment by Kansas.
Attacking Georgia Techs triple-
option offense Saturday, Springer
dictated the pace of the game
with 15 tackles and an emotional
win.
Its a big win, Springer said.
Biggest win of my life, to tell you
the truth.
Until Saturdays career-setting
performance, Springers previous
high was nine tackles in a single
game. Without Springers contri-
butions, three of which resulted
in Georgia Techs loss of posses-
sion, the Jayhawks may not have
been able to seal the upset against
the nationally ranked opponent.
Senior linebacker Drew
Dudley, who had eight tackles,
saw Springers commitment in the
offseason after intense two-a-day
practices.
Im about to go to sleep and
hes got his little night-light on,
reading his
p l a y b o o k ,
Dudley said.
The two line-
backers have
been room-
mates for four
years. Dudley
wasnt surprised
that Springer
had spent extra
hours studying
film last week in
preparation for Saturdays game.
Despite the extra hours, Springer
said he tried to maintain the same
mindset facing Georgia Tech.
Im not going to lie, before the
game I was still nervous, Springer
said. But I had the same motiva-
tion I had last week. I didnt care
what anybody said.
Led by Springer on defense
and the new starting quarter-
back freshman Jordan Webb on
offense, the Jayhawks found the
rhythm they needed to bounce
back from last
weeks embar-
rassing defeat.
The energy
g a r n e r e d
on offense
quickly trans-
ferred to the
other side of
the ball. The
Yellow Jackets
amassed 291
rushing yards,
but the Jayhawk defense success-
fully limited their offensive exe-
cution in key plays.
Coming into the second game of
a season with a seemingly dismal
future, what the Jayhawks feared
most was Georgia Techs triple
option offense. The precision-
oriented offense was designed to
create various offensive oppor-
tunities with the running back
and quarterback, fourth-quarter
comebacks not being one of
them.
The Jayhawk defense success-
fully exploited one of the offenses
most significant weaknesses.
Given the Yellow Jackets use of
the pitch option, a fumble was
bound to happen and when it did,
Dudley was ready to recover the
ball early in the fourth quarter.
Theres always a chance,
even last week they had a couple
fumbles so we were just hoping,
Dudley said. You keep playing
hard and be ready to get it when
it is.
In the final minute, after hav-
ing pulled within three points
of the Jayhawks, Georgia Techs
offensive line stood face-to-face
with an unexpectedly strong
defense at its 35-yard line. Yellow
Jackets quarterback Josh Nesbitt
was 5-for-15, gaining only 116
yards passing, but may have had
the opportunity to be a hero in a
fourth-and-3 situation, had a false
start penalty not pushed his team
back 5 yards. Confronted by solid
defensive pressure, Nesbitt threw
an incomplete fourth-down pass
to seal the Jayhawk victory.
Joining Springer and Dudley
as one of the top three tacklers,
junior linebacker Steven Johnson
made 11 tackles. Together, they
made 34 of the 82 tackles against
the Yellow Jackets.
We knew from the beginning
of the game that it was going to
be on us, the defense, Johnson
said. We had to go out there, set-
tle down and focus on our indi-
vidual jobs. By playing together,
as a team, you can accomplish
anything.

TRIVIA OF THE DAY
Q: the Heisman trophy is

A: Georgia tech. Heisman was
the coach of the Yellow Jackets
from 1904-1919.

I
f pumpkin spice lattes and 7 a.m.
tailgating arent enough reason to
love fall, the NFL cements it as the
absolute best time of the year. Im looking
forward to watching my Cowboys pull a
Turner Gill and get their act together in the
second week, eventually winning a Super
Bowl in their own stadium, but this year Ill
have a second team to keep tabs on: the Jets.
So how did the Jets go from barely a blip
on my radar to my second favorite team?
HBOs Hard Knocks: Training Camp got
me hooked.
If you havent seen the clip of Antonio
Cromartie struggling to name all eight of
his children, go find it. Youll notice theyre
all under the age of five, and three of them
are 3 years old. 2007 was a big year for him.
In the same episode, the team works out
with Shake Weights, the hilariously inap-
propriate gadget designed to tone the tri-
ceps. Why cant my job be that fun?
A winning record isnt enough to hold
my attention. For me, the personalities that
make up the team are the most compelling
part.
And HBO knows how to reel me in. I
became attached to the rookies, emotion-
ally invested in their status on the roster.
Brashton Satele, a linebacker out of Hawaii,
looked promising until he tore his Achilles
tendon in the first preseason game. Wide
receiver Larry Taylor is only 56 but
incredibly scrappy. I just knew my favorites
would survive the axe.
They were cut in the season finale last
week. Just as I think the series will end in
disappointment, a small miracle occurs.
Darrelle Revis, the shows invisible char-
acter, signs a reconfigured contract and
reunites with the Jets. Doesnt everyone love
a happy ending?
Hard Knocks has done something
amazing: It has made me feel like a stake-
holder in the success of a team I never
cared about before. I want to see the Jets do
well like I want to see my friends and family
do well.
I hope Cromarties career flourishes so
he can send all eight of his kids to college. I
hope Satele comes back from injury to live
his dream of playing professional football. I
hope Mark Sanchez learns to curb his buf-
foonery so he can lead the team and to
reduce his risk of getting punched in the
face.
The Jets play their first regular season
game tonight, and Ill be checking the score
at work. Thats a first.
But the Cowboys are still Americas
team and Dallas is still the best city in
our nations greatest state. Good TV cant
change that.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. If
Denard Robinsons performance
last week was a jaw dropper, what
he did against Notre Dame on
Saturday topped it.
He broke off the longest run
in the history of the Irishs fabled
stadium an 87-yarder for a
TD.
Thats just for starters. How
about a school-record 502 yards
total offense for a QB, including
258 yards rushing on 28 carries
and 244 more passing?
And oh, yeah, he directed the
game-winning TD drive, scoring
himself from 2 yards out with 27
seconds left to send Michigan
(2-0) to a pulsating 28-24 vic-
tory.
No wonder Wolverines coach
Rich Rodriguez said the spectac-
ular new star of his spread offense
might sleep on
the trip back to
Ann Arbor. He
deserves some
rest.
Man, I didnt
even know that,
Robinson said of
his record-break-
ing day the
second week in a
row he snapped
s i n g l e - g a me
Michigan quar-
terback marks for total offense
and rushing.
Our offense came together, he
said. The offensive line blocked,
the receivers catching, everything
was clicking. ... Im a team player
and I dont look at stats.
He doesnt lace his spikes,
either. And
hes durable.
Hes a
tough kid.
Thats the
one thing
that stands
out, Notre
Dame coach
Brian Kelly
said. You
run a quar-
terback 25
times, you
got to have toughness.
Kellys guy was tough, too. But
he just couldnt pull out the vic-
tory.
Dayne Crist missed most of
the first half after getting blurry
vision from hitting his head on
the ground during a run in an
opening TD drive. But he brought
the Irish back in the second half
and connected with tight end
Kyle Rudolph on a 95-yard TD
pass to put Notre Dame (1-1)
ahead with 3:41 left.
Then Robinson showed that
not only is he fast and strong,
hes a clutch player, too. He led
Michigan on a 12-play, 72-yard
drive, capped his game-winning
TD a fitting end.
Notre Dame (1-1) had one last
chance from the Wolverines 27
with six seconds left, but Crist
threw the ball out of the end zone
on the final play.
On the game-winnning drive,
Robinson carried to pick up a
crucial first on a fourth-and-1
at the Notre Dame 35. Then
on a third-and-5 from the 17,
Robinson drilled a 15-yard pass
to Roy Roundtree to the 2 to set
up his TD.
He (Roundtree) gave me a
wink before the play. He winked
at me and I knew I could go
to him and I could count on
him, Robinson said. And he was
there.
Robinsons most spectacular
moment came late in the second
quarter, when he took the snap
from his own 13, went to the
right side, made a little cut and
sprinted past the Irish defense.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. Tom
Brady was back where hes most
comfortable, on the field with Wes
Welker grabbing touchdown passes.
The headline-making quarterback
threw two of his three touchdown
passes to Welker, who returned from
a serious knee injury, and led the
New England Patriots to a 38-24
win over the Cincinnati Bengals on
Sunday.
The season-opening victory
came just three days after Brady
was unhurt in a two-car crash then
agreed to a contract making him the
NFLs highest paid player.
His day was made smoother by
Welker, who caught eight passes for
64 yards less than eight months after
surgery for a torn knee ligament.
Chad Ochocinco and Terrell
Owens combined for 19 receptions
for 212 yards and a touchdown for
the Bengals, but their impact fell
short of the hype that accompanied
their partnership.
The Patriots dominance was com-
plete as they also scored on defense
with Gary Guytons 59-yard inter-
ception return and on special teams
on Brandon Tates 97-yard runback
of the second-half kickoff.
Welker led the NFL with 346
receptions the past three years, the
last coming on Jan. 3 in the regular-
season finale at Houston.

The Jayhawks dropped to No.
3 in the Big 12 Conference after
losing a long battle with No. 18
Northern Iowa in the second
match of the weekends Kansas
Invitational. Kansas won victories
over Winthrop and Arkansas-
Little Rock, helped along by
senior outside hitter Karina
Garlington and sophomore mid-
dle blocker Tayler Tolefree, both
of whom were named for the all-
tournament team.
Tolefree, who reached a career
high of 11 kills in two straight
matches, said the team was look-
ing to diversify its offense. If you
have to respect all the hitters in
the front row, everyone is going
one-on-one, and you open people
up, Tolefree said. So, weve been
working on that, and working on
just being a more dynamic team.
Kansas, now 9-2, placed sec-
ond in the tournament. Northern
Iowa took first place, while
Arkansas-Little Rock landed in
third and Winthrop in fourth.
Winthrop
In the Jayhawks first match
of the weekend, they saw the
Winthrop Eagles out of
Rockhill, South Carolina push
the contest into four sets by
coming alive in the third to win
29-27. Some credit for that goes
to Eagles senior outside hitter
Kaley Viola, who led her team
with 17 kills. At many points in
the match, Viola and Jayhawk
Karina Garlington went back and
forth, shot for shot.
She had a great game tonight,
Garlington said of Viola. We
didnt seem to find an answer for
her, so, you know, she stepped up
for her team, too, and had a good
night.
But Garlington got the better
of the exchange, adding a block
to 27 kills. The Jayhawks took
the fourth set 20-25 to win the
match.
northern ioWa
At No. 18, the Northern Iowa
Panthers were the first ranked
opponent that the Jayhawks have
seen in 2010, and the match
against them lasted over two
hours over five sets on Friday
night. The Panthers took the first
two sets 25-16 and 25-20, having
better success with their offen-
sive attacks and frustrating the
Jayhawks offense with over sev-
enteen blocks.
Handling the Panthers offense
partly fell to freshman defensive
specialist Brianne Riley, who
came up with 21 digs in the five
games.
They run a really fast offense,
Riley said.
They get balls
to deep corners,
that most teams
dont know how
to get there.
Usually we just
call those good
shots but they
c o ns i s t e nt l y
were hitting the
balls to those good shots.
The Jayhawks turned things
around in the third set, helped
by junior setter Nicole Tate who
picked up a kill, six assists and
a dig on entering the game. Tate
said the key was to come out
strong and make a sustained
effort.
The offensive combinations
were good, Tate said. We have
to throw the first punch.
The Jayhawks won the third
and fourth sets 23-25 and 20-25,
respectively, forcing the Panthers
into a fifth and final set. It went to
Northern Iowa 15-11.
Coach Ray Bechard said that
Northern Iowa had a potential
advantage in the endgame. That
was their fourth or fifth five-
game match. And that fifth game
just feels a little different because
its shorter, and theres more pres-
sure, and they handled it better
than we did. And sometimes you
got to go through that to under-
stand what if feels like. Now,
hopefully, next time around, well
handle that a little bit better.

man Jaime Mathieu made her
first appearance at libero in the

Coach Ray Bechard said in a
release that he played everyone
on the roster.
Sometimes when you do that,
things get a little uneven and
momentum changes. But we did
block extremely well and we gave
everybody an opportunity, which
we wanted to see some people in

The soccer teams inconsistencies
continued this weekend, as it went
1-1 for the third consecutive week.
Kansas (3-3) defeated Oregon
(2-3-2), for its first Sunday win of
the season, 1-0 on a late goal by
junior forward Emily Cressy.
Cressy was unmarked on her
goal that came in the 85th minute
on a cross from sophomore mid-
fielder Whitney Berry.
Coach Mark Francis thought the
team played well in the offensive
end.
We created more scoring oppor-
tunities than we have all season,
Francis said in a news release. The
girls played really hard and I think
across the board, every single per-
son that stepped on the field did a
really good job.
The Jayhawks had 13 shots
against the Ducks; six came from
Cressy. Oregon had 25 shots, but
could not convert.
Francis was pleased with how
the team was competitive all week-
end. He thought defeating a good
Oregon team on the road was a
good victory for the team.
This weekend we talked to
them about competing and main-
taining focus, Francis said in a
news release. Friday, I thought we
competed really well but werent
focused all 90 minutes. Today I
thought we were.
The Jayhawks lost to California
State University, Northridge (4-3),
1-0 in double-overtime on Friday.
Kansas controlled much of the
game, but it did not matter as
CSUN scored a goal in the 102nd
minute, which ended the game.
Junior defender Brielle Slepicoff
took the ball from midfield and
dribbled down to the edge of the
box and crossed it to senior for-
ward Farryn Townley, who headed
the ball in from three yards out.
Kansas went 2-3 on its five-
game road trip. The team returns
home to the Jayhawk Soccer
Complex on Friday and will host
UW-Milwaukee.

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. _ The
New York Jets finally can begin a
journey they all believe will lead
them to Jerry Jones palatial stadium
come February, a point theyve been
pounding home with the force of a
jackhammer.
After an eventful offseason when
they added several shiny free-agent
pieces, talked boldly and saw their
All-Pro cornerback stage a 36-day
holdout, the Jets hit the stage on
Monday Night Football against
the Ravens, kicking off their Super
Bowl or Bust campaign.
Its time to start backing up that
bravado in their regular-season debut
at New Meadowlands Stadium.
Weve been waiting for this
moment, just to be able to get back
on the field and make that run for the
Super Bowl, wide receiver Jerricho
Cotchery said. A lot of people hear
us talking and all those things, but
we are a hungry team right now.
Our goal is to make the Super Bowl.
Last year, realistically we thought we
were going to make the Super Bowl.
But we fell short of that goal.
So when you are that close, you
realize that you have to work that
much harder to get to the Super
Bowl. And thats where we are at
right now. You hear guys talking _
thats because we are hungry and we
are just trying to get there.
That was evident in the Jets head-
line-grabbing offseason that includ-
ed the acquisitions of LaDainian
Tomlinson, Santonio Holmes,
Antonio Cromartie and Jason
Taylor. Holmes has to sit out the first
four games for violating the NFLs

Quote of the Game
That was the frst time Ive used that move. It
was a quick decision I had to make since I was go-
ing against two defenders, so I just had to jump.

Tech defender on a long rush

Game Balls
3. FreshmanquarterbackJordanWebb: Save for a hard-luck interception
on a bobble by one of his receivers, newstarter JordanWebb took the ball and
ran with it. Actually, sophomore Kale Pick ran with it in a variety of Wildcat-like
formations, but Webb got the vast majority of the plays on a day when he
would throwthree touchdown passes and kill the quarterback controversy
for now, at least.
2. Kansas linebackers: Seniors Justin Springer, drewdudley and junior
Steven Johnson combined for 34 tackles, six of themfor losses, against one of
the most prolifc rushing ofenses in the nation. SophomoreToben Opurum
converted to linebacker last month to help with depth issues at the position,
but the performance of these three upper-classmen is giving himmore time to
adjust to the newrole without a sense of urgency to play him.
1. FreshmanrunningbackJames Sims: Sims became the frst freshman in
the programs history to rush for 100 yards in his debut. Not bad for a guy who
did not see the feld last week. Sims averaged 5.9 yards per carry and scored
the go-ahead touchdown early in the third quarter. With his breakout perfor-
mance, the freshman has forced the coaching stafto fnd a place for himwhen
deShaun Sands returns frominjury.

talented players on the feld, but he is quickly becoming an afterthought in
a wide receiver group led by junior daymond Patterson. Wilson fnished with

Game Notes
THE GLASS IS HALF FULL
Turner Gill, facingtheheat after just onegameas Jayhawks coach, silencedthe
critics bydefeatingoneof thebest teams inthecountry. JordanWebbandJames
Sims gaveJayhawks fans aglimpseof things tocomewiththeir stellar debuts, and
abowl gameis onceagainwell withinreachintheir frst seasons.
THE GLASS IS HALF EMPTY
Missouri and Kansas State both looked phenomenal on Saturday.
Granted, it was against weak opponents, but the Jayhawks laid an egg in
their tune-up game against North dakota State.
BIGGEST ANSWER
Jordan Webb seems to be the man the coaching staf was looking for
at quarterback. Many questioned the short leash that pulled sophomore
quarterback Kale Pick just three quarters into his career as a starter, but
Webb managed to put the debate to rest with his impressive showing
against the defending ACC champions. However, the freshman quarterback
was sacked four times and must avoid the pressure better in the future.
STILL QUESTIONING
James Sims breakout was almost as surprising as his fat-top hair style, but
his teammates said after the game they knewhe had it in him. Sims lobbied
his coaches not to redshirt himthis season, and the decision to keep himac-
tive seems to have paid of. However, freshman running back deshaun Sands
leg injury does not appear to be serious and the teamcould have another
playing-time controversy on their hands this time with the running backs.
LOOKINGAHEAD
The Jayhawks have a short week to enjoy the spoils of their upset vic-
tory; a matchup with Southern Mississippi looms this Friday night. The
Golden Eagles have produced mixed returns this season, losing 41-13 to
South Carolina in the season opener but defeating Prairie View A&M34-7
last Saturday, but they should have no problem with motivation against
the Jayhawks. Last season, Kansas handed Southern Mississippi their frst
loss of the season in a 35-28 nail-biter at Memorial Stadium on Sept. 26.
GOOD, BAD OR JUST PLAINSTUPID
Original prediction: GeorgiaTech36, Kansas 23. Actual score: Kansas 28, Georgia
Tech25. TheJayhawks defedexpectations onceagain. Theofenseperformed
slightlybetter thanexpected, but it was theKansas defensethat shinedonSatur-
day. Granted, theyellowJackets mayhavebeencloser totheoriginal prediction
hadtheir quarterbackbeenabletohit wide-openreceivers, but knowinghecould
not was part of defensivecoordinator Carl Torbushs brilliant gameplan.
FINAL THOUGHT
Two games in to the season, the Jayhawks (1-1) stand where just about
everyone thought they would be. They just took a much unexpected route
to get here. The week preceding Saturdays game was one of the worst in
programhistory with the loss to North dakota State and the abrupt retire-
ment of athletic director LewPerkins. But with the student section unflled
for the frst time in recent memory, the Jayhawks stunned the No. 15 ranked
teamin the nation and brought their programsome good vibes, something
that seemed like an impossibility just hours before kickof.

Both the mens and womens
cross country teams have some-
thing to celebrate after their meet
at the Missouri Cross Country
Challenge on Saturday. The Kansas
team competed against Missouri,
UMKC, and Stephens College at
the A.L. Gustin Golf Course in
Columbia, Mo., where the mens
team claimed first place and the
womens team took second place.
The mens team started their
8K race strong and finished first
among the teams with a score of 19.
The Jayhawks were able to claim
all but one of the top five spots in
the mens race. Their lead runner,
junior Donny Wassinger, claimed
first with a time of 25 minutes 17.5
seconds. Right behind him was
senior Nick Caparario, who fin-
ished second overall with a time
of 25:49.7. Juniors Zach Zarda
and Austin
Bussing came
in at fourth
and fifth place
proving that
the mens team
was motivated
to beat out
their border
rivals.
C o a c h
Stanley Redwine was very
impressed and enthusiastic about
the mens performance at the
meet.
The men ran very well,
Redwine said. There was a great
team effort and we are going to
continue to get better to prepare
for our upcoming competition.
Wassinger was also pleased
with the overall teamwork and
effort the mens team has shown
this season thus far.
We are happy with how every-
thing went,
but we are not
resting here,
Wa s s i n g e r
said. We are
continuing to
prepare for the
final goal of
Nationals and
keeping that in
our minds as
we compete throughout the year.
The womens team was only six
points behind Missouri, but was
still able to claim an overall sec-
ond place win with a score of 31.
Sophomore Allie Marquis made
her debut for the season at the
meet, placing second overall with
a personal best time of 18:01.90
on the 5K course. Right behind
Marquis was sophomore Tessa
Turcotte, who placed third with a
time of 18:22.69, and sophomore
Kyra Kilwein, who placed sixth,
timing in at 18:34.59. Other strong
runners for the womens team
were junior Cori Christensen and
sophomore Natalie Becker.
Assistant Coach Michael
Whittlesey was elated with
the womens performance at
the Missouri Cross Country
Challenge.
I was really pleased with the
women, Whittlesey said, We are
going to be much better in a few
weeks when we get everybody
together. It was really tight race,
but we did well.

The mens golf team will be play-
ing in the Fairway Club Invitational
in Nebraska City, Neb., on Monday
and Tuesday. The team will be try-
ing to improve on its sixth-place
finish last weekend in the Turning
Stone-Tiger Intercollegiate.
I expect to win, coach Kit
Grove said. We should have a
great chance to go in there and
compete.
Senior Nate Barbee will be
counted on to lead the team after
his tie for 39th place in the Turning
Stone-Tiger Intercollegiate last
week. Joining him will be the same
four who competed with Barbee
last week; sophomores Chris
Gilbert and Dan Waite, junior
Doug Quinones, and freshman
David Catt, who finished 15th,
57th, 28th, and 39th, respectively.
The Jayhawks are hoping to take
advantage of a more open course,
but one that can turn dangerous if
the wind picks up.
Its really based on wind con-
ditions, Grove said. There is a
pretty good premium on driving
the ball out here.
When the wind dies down it
offers players a chance to score
low.
Turning Stone was really tight
with trees and hazards, Barbee
said. This course is a little more
open where you can make more
birdies.
In addition to the five members
playing in the team competition,
the Jayhawks will be entering two
players, freshman Bryce Brown
and senior Jeff Bell, as individual
competitors.
Our big thing is having patience
out there, Grove said.
The Jayhawks are looking to
turn things around and win their
first tournament of the year.
We just need to put five rounds
together to rebound from last week
and keep it under par, Barbee
said.

NfL
Mendenhall carries Steelers to overtime win
AssociAtEd PREss
PITTSBURGH The Steelers
are back to running the ball and
playing exceptional defense.
For one week, who needed Ben
Roethlisberger?
Rashard Mendenhall ran 50
yards for a touchdown 2:35 into
overtime and the Steelers over-
came a shaky start by replacement
quarterback Dennis Dixon and
a missed field goal attempt late
in regulation to beat the Atlanta
Falcons 15-9 on Sunday.
With the Steelers leaning heav-
ily on their retooled running game
and defense without suspended
star Roethlisberger, Mendenhall
carried 22 times for 120 yards
and the games only touchdown.
Hines Ward made six catches for
108 yards in his club-record 26th
career 100-yard game.
Pittsburgh (1-0) appeared ready
to win it with 39 seconds left in the
fourth quarter, but Jeff Reed, who
has nine career game-winning
kicks, was wide right on a 40-yard
attempt. Reed had hit earlier from
52, 36 and 34 yards.
Atlanta (0-1) was limited to
three Matt Bryant field goals as
the Steelers held former All-Pro
running back Michael Turner to
42 yards on 19 carries.
The Steelers took a 9-6 lead on
Reeds 34-yarder near the mid-
point of the fourth quarter, fol-
lowing catches of 25 and 24 yards
on successive plays by Ward. The
Falcons tied it with 3:24 remain-
ing on Bryants third field goal, a
23-yarder, after deciding against
going for it on fourth and a long 1
at the Pittsburgh 5.
It was the third overtime game
in as many Falcons-Steelers meet-
ings. They played a 34-all tie in
2002 at Heinz Field, and Atlanta
won 41-38 at home in 2006.
Pittsburgh won its eighth con-
secutive season opener, the lon-
gest ongoing streak in the league.
The Steelers also have won their
past eight openers at home.
Predictably, the Steelers came
out with a conservative game plan
with Dixon making his second
career start. Roethlisberger served
the first game of his four-game
suspension for violating the NFLs
personal conduct policy and,
because he is barred from all team
activities, did not attend.
Two Steelers starters went down
with injuries. Neither returned,
and their status wasnt known.
We are happy with how
everything went, but we
are not resting here.

Paul Konerko had a pair of two-
run homers and an RBI single
and pinch-hitter Andruw Jones
hit grand slam in a six-run sixth
inning, leading the Chicago White
Sox to a 12-6 victory over the
Kansas City Royals on Sunday.
Konerko lined a run-scoring
single to left to give Chicago its
first lead of the game in the sixth
inning.
Kansas City led 6-0 after a half
inning, but Chicago chipped away
with two runs apiece in the first,
third and fourth innings.
The White Sox remain six
games behind Minnesota, who
beat Cleveland, and face the Twins
in the opener of a three-game
series on Tuesday.
The Royals sent nine batters to
the plate in the first, scoring six
runs against starting pitcher Lucas
Harrell on a pair of three-run
home runs from Billy Butler and
Brayan Pena.
Konerko connected for his 35th
homer of the season in the bottom
half. Konerko hit his second two-
run shot in the third, this time
sending a 1-2 pitch on a towering
fly to left field. He now has 27
career multihomer games, the last
coming on June 2 against Texas.
Chicago tied the game with a
pair of fourth-inning runs. Juan
Pierre had a sacrifice fly while
Alexei Ramirez scored from third
on a passed ball with Konerko at
the plate.
In the decisive sixth, the White
Sox had runners on first and third
when Konerko delivered single
that brought home Omar Vizquel.
Humber then hit Manny Ramiez
with a pitch to load the bases.
Dusty Hughes entered in relief
and walked A.J. Pierzynski to
score Alex Rios for an 8-6 lead.
Chris Getz left the game with
a mild concussion after being
hit in the head on a throw from
Pierzynski, the catcher, while run-
ning to second in the fifth inning.

Surrounded by family, Oklahoma
coach Bob Stoops reached out for a
handshake and an embrace with
his little brother, Mark.
Perhaps if No. 10 Oklahomas
47-17 win on Saturday had come
against a team other than No. 17
Florida State with Mark Stoops
coaching the defense it would
have felt a lot more satisfying for
the Sooners coach.
Its a rotten place to be because I
appreciate the way our team played
and all that, but you just cannot
separate blood, Bob Stoops said. I
just dont like it. I knew that com-
ing into the game I didnt, and Im
positive of it now after the game.
Landry Jones outplayed
Christian Ponder by throwing for
380 yards and four touchdowns
against Mark Stoops defense, and
the Sooners (2-0) moved past their
shaky sea-
son opener in
style.
A rematch
of the 2001
Orange Bowl
that brought
home the
Sooners most
recent national
championship
quickly turned
into a blowout
as Oklahoma
scored touch-
downs on its first four possessions.
We knew who we were, we
knew what we were capable of,
and we came out here and showed
what were capable of today, Jones
said.
Jones got into a rhythm with
short, swing passes and screens
near the line of scrimmage before
striking down the field for scores.
He completed 14 straight passes
at one point, starting at the end
of the Sooners opening drive and
continuing past when hed pushed
the lead to 27-7 with his third
touchdown pass.
Ponder, whos being promoted
as a Heisman Trophy contender
by the school, was 11 for 28 for
113 yards with interceptions on
back-to-back throws in the third
quarter for Florida State (1-1). He
completed less than half of his
passes for the first time since the
2008 season.
It kind of just snowballed and
I take a lot of blame for that,
Ponder said. A lot of mistakes out
there today and I put my team in a
bad position to not score points. I
really think its my fault.
The Seminoles had four first
downs on their opening posses-
sion, but picked up only five more
over the next 2 quarters against
an Oklahoma
s e c o n d a r y
that had been
burned for
341 yards and
a handful of
big plays a
week earlier
in a 31-24 win
against Utah
State.
I wasnt
worried about
last week, Bob
Stoops said. I
know what were capable of when
were able to play all of our defense,
use our blitzes, use our different
coverages schemes. And I thought
we did them well.
Christian Ponders a great play-
er. To hold him down the way we
did, you have to be playing good
defense because hes an excellent
player.
