NO. 200

Wednesday night’s victory was the 200th in Bonnie Henrickson’s 10-year head coaching career.

Sade Morris, sophomore guard, passes the ball to a teammate last night at Allen Fieldhouse. Morris, along with Taylor McIntosh, senior forward, led the team in points scored with each contributing 13 points to the Jayhawks 64 total points.

“I am proud for the coaches and players that have been a part of it,” said Henrickson. “You don’t win this many games without great players and a great staff.”

Henrickson started as the head coach of Virginia Tech in 1997, then came to Kansas in 2004.

TAKING TURNS

Sunday afternoon, freshman Nicollette Smith was lighting up the scoreboard with game highs of 19 points and 10 rebounds.

Wednesday night, freshman Krysten Boogaard stepped up with 10 points, five rebounds and a block, all in the first half.

The freshmen duo’s quick start has everyone excited about what’s to come once they gain some experience.

KLEIN STYMIED

Last season, UMKC senior center Alysa Klein recorded 16 points, 13 rebounds and seven blocks. This time around, Kansas was able to neutralize Klein’s offensive output. She finished with 5 points on 2-9 shooting, 12 rebounds and four blocks. In spite of a number of good looks underneath, Klein never found her scoring touch. Henrickson said the team was prepared to double team Klein if necessary to prevent her from dominating again this year.
