Tonight’s foe can feel KU women’s pain
No doubt Kansas University’s women’s basketball season has been marred by the loss of Danielle McCray, the Big 12 Conference’s preseason player of the year. But would you believe virtually the same thing happened to Prairie View A&M?

Carolyn Davis joined the list of injured Kansas University women’s basketball players, and the Jayhawks were thumped again.

Heartbroken Jayhawks to face Wildcats Sunday
Fate has dealt Kansas University’s women’s basketball players a bad hand. First the Jayhawks lost starting point guard Angel Goodrich to an anterior cruciate ligament injury in January. And now leading scorer Danielle McCray has been hit with a similar affliction.
Woodling: Injuries happen, but McCray’s is shocking
I thought Danny Manning was immortal. Sure, he was a tremendously talented basketball player, but I’m talking about his durability.
Senior McCray tears ACL, out for season
Danielle McCray seemed almost bulletproof. Every time Kansas University’s All-Big 12 basketball player went down with an apparently serious injury, she always bounced back. Not this time. The 5-foot-11 senior suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in her left knee during Thursday’s practice, and the college career of one of KU’s most talented athletes is over.

Mike McCarthy and Mike McCormack. Similar names. Similar distinctions. McCarthy is the only former Baker University football player who has been an NFL head coach. He’s currently the Green Bay Packers’ head man.
Over the slump
Morris finds shot, scores 22 points
Sade Morris came out of her shooting shell and Kansas University shelled Pepperdine, 82-63, in women’s basketball Wednesday afternoon in Allen Fieldhouse.
Afternoon tip spices up Pepperdine-KU women’s game
That’s not a typographical error. Kansas University’s women are indeed playing a basketball game on a weekday afternoon.
Woodling: McCray dominates highlights
A surprisingly large crowd, stunning performances by Danielle McCray, a long-time coach’s departure and unprecedented territory for Haskell Indian Nations University.
McCray finding her rhythm
Danielle McCray did something unusual the other night. Kansas University’s senior basketball player recorded her career scoring high without attempting a single free throw.
Woodling: Not his true calling: It’s a good thing Turner Gill gave up baseball
When Turner Gill was named Kansas University’s new football coach, I told our desk people I thought we had an old black-and-white print of him in our photo files. So I went to search one of the drawers in the large sports-department filing cabinet, found the G section, shuffled through some photos, and there it was — a picture of Gill playing shortstop for Nebraska in the early 1980s.
McCray has her way
Senior scores 30 to carry KU to victory
With her Kansas University teammates in an apparent post-finals funk, Danielle McCray scored 30 points, and the No. 22-ranked Jayhawks flicked aside UC Riverside, 75-60, on Sunday in Allen Fieldhouse.

Woodling: Turner Gill hiring follows a KU trend
They’re all pretty much the same, you know. Introductory news conferences inevitably contain bubbly remarks about the new hire, glowing optimism from the new man and a smattering of enamored boosters scattered among the media cameras and tape recorders.
Goodrich makes Jays pay
Creighton plays off KU point guard, so she keys KU’s rout
KU point Angel Goodrich, avoided by Creighton defenders Sunday like she had the bubonic plague, erupted for a career-high 20 points as KU thumped the Jays, 77-56, in Allen Fieldhouse.

KU women roll; coach unimpressed
Bonnie Henrickson wasn’t awarding any gold stars Sunday afternoon. Kansas University had just walloped Northern Colorado, 81-54, in Allen Fieldhouse, and KU’s women’s basketball coach sounded like the Jayhawks had lost by 27.
KU women to entertain Northern Colorado
In theory, KU women’s basketball coach Bonnie Henrickson should be able to give her bench players some much needed floor time today against Northern Colorado (3-4), a so-so mid-major.

Woodling: Recruiting woes: Mangino’s play-calling against MU not the issue
I have to admit I often become incensed at television sports commentators. Take last Saturday’s Kansas-Missouri football contest, for example. The TV throats blistered KU coach Mark Mangino for his failure to use running plays to eat the clock late.
Woodling: George, Goodrich genuine
If you don’t give a hoot about women’s basketball, shift your eyes to the latest update on Mark Mangino twisting in the Lew Perkins wind … if you haven’t already.
