Team to play two matches over break

Wednesday, October 10, 2007

The Kansas soccer team will head into fall break on a winning streak. After what seemed like a never-ending losing rut, the Jayhawks finally added to the winning side of their record. Now up to 3-8-2 overall after last weekend, the team seems poised to keep the momentum going. Kansas will host Oklahoma State on Friday at 4 p.m. and Oklahoma on Sunday at 1 p.m. At the Jayhawk Soccer Complex.

SHOWDOWN WITH OSU

The Cowgirls are 8-3-1 this season and have a 2-2-0 conference record so far. Most recently, they took home a 2-1 win against Baylor. Kansas played Baylor two weekends ago. After two overtimes, the game finally ended in a tie. Both Kansas and Oklahoma State have been handed losses by Texas A&M this season, the Jayhawks lost 5-1, and the Cowgirls lost 2-1. But the Aggies are the conference’s best team.

OKLAHOMA: TAKE TWO

The second game of the weekend will pit the Jayhawks against the Oklahoma Sooners. Oklahoma, like Kansas and Oklahoma State, also lost to Texas A&M this season, 1-0. The Sooners will come to Lawrence with a 5-5-2-overall record and a 1-3-conference record.

A REWARD FOR WATCHING THE JAYHAWKS IN ACTION?

If watching Kansas battle for its third straight win isn’t convincing enough for KU fans, the Kansas Athletics Department has come up with an extra incentive to see the Jayhawks in action on Friday night. The first 1,000 fans who make it to the game before the first half ends will receive a voucher for guaranteed admission to Late Night in the Phog.

AND THE AWARD GOES TO…

Freshman forward Kaitlyn Cunningham was named the Big 12 Conference’s Newcomer of the Week. Last Sunday, Cunningham scored her first goal of her college career. The goal was scored after she broke away from Texas Tech’s defense during the second half. The award was Kansas’ first conference award of the season.
