As Mike Eglinski runs around
campus with a compass and a
map, passers-by might mistake
him for a confused visitor. But
despite what it may look like, the
1985 graduate and KU alumnus
is familiar with the campus and
is not lost.
He is orienteering.
Orienteering is a cross-country
race in which competitors use a
map and compass to find their
way through unfamiliar territory.
Racers use a detailed map that
indicates terrain such as hills,
boulders and dense vegetation to
find various markers in a spe-
cific order. Once a racer locates the
marker, he either punches a hole in
his control card or uses an elec-
tronic clicker to verify his visit to
the site. There is no marked course
for racers to follow; instead, they
must use the map to determine the
route they believe is quickest.
Its really two things. One is
figuring out the best way to go,
and the other is not getting lost,
Eglinski said. On campus, its not
that hard to not get lost, but in
the forest you can easily go to the
wrong little cliff.
Orienteering began a century
ago in Scandanavia as a military
training exercise. Eglinski said
the sport was introduced in the
United States in the late 1960s and
has been growing ever since.
Eglinski, a Lawrence native, was
introduced to the sport in high
school at an event held on West
Campus and continued orienteer-
ing throughout college. Although
there is no orienteering team at
the University now, there was one
when Eglinski was here. In fact,

Fraternity council
hit with probation
BY ALEX gArrison
agarrison@kansan.com
The Interfraternity Council vio-
lated the Universitys hazing policy
in November and is now under a
two-year probation, among other
sanctions, according to a media
release from the Office of Student
Success Tuesday evening.
The council met to vote on
whether to remove its president,
Jay Trump. According to Aaron
Dollinger, a senior from Overland
Park who serves on the Universitys
hazing task force, the measure failed
by one vote.
According to an Office of Student
Success report from December,
members of the council engaged in
paddling while marking staff turn-
over on Nov. 18. That report said
that no new executive board mem-
bers were paddled by former mem-
bers and that only former members
had paddled each other.
The Office placed the council on
a two-year probation for hazing on
Tuesday evening. During the pro-
bation period, members will meet
frequently with Nicholas Kerhwald,
student conduct officer, according
to the release.
In addition to the probation, the
IFC will be forced to:
-Send at least two of its execu-
tive board members to the Novak
Institute, an anti-hazing seminar in
Colorado;
-Hire an outside consultant to
review the hazing culture in the
KU greek community and lead the
implementation of recommended
initiatives;
-Hold all future turnover meet-
ings with a staff adviser present;
-And apologize to fraternity
members.
The IFC will have to pay for all
expenses incurred.
Dollinger said the sanctions
didnt go far enough to punish

The Environmental Stewardship
Program collected, sorted, baled
and shipped 649 tons of recyclable
materials from the University of
Kansas campus last year. But the
University might have to do better if
it wants to win RecycleMania.
RecycleMania, an annual recy-
cling contest for colleges and univer-
sities, entered the years first week of
official competition on Feb. 6. The
contest involves 630 schools, draw-
ing participants from every U.S.
state except Alaska. The schools will
compete over an eight- week period
in one or more of several categories
of recycling and waste reduction.
Jeff Severin, director of the
Universitys Center for Sustainability,
has been involved with RecycleMania
in the past and works with the ESP
on some projects. He said one ben-
efit of RecycleMania was the interest
it generated as a national competi-
tion during basketball season.
I think that adds some incen-
tive, Severin said.
Last year, the University collected
184,413 pounds of paper, cardboard,
bottles and cans for a 94th place fin-
ish in the Gorilla Prize category,
which rates schools in terms of the
gross tonnage of recycled mate-
rial. But the University primarily
competes in the Per Capita Classic,
which calculates the amount recy-
cled for each person on campus.
Last year, Kansas placed eighth in
its peer group of nine competing
Big 12 schools with 5.47 pounds per
person. The University of Missouri
finished first with 11.9.
This year, the Big 12 competi-
tion in
the Per
C a p i t a Classic
is down to eight schools,
with the University of Colorado
not participating.
Aileen Dingus, program
director for ESP, said that
on Monday, the University
was in sixth place in its
peer group, just three-
tenths of a pound behind
Kansas State.
Were right in there with
them, Dingus said. The
standings will change from
week to week.
Kasey Norris, an Overland
Park senior and recycling techni-
cian, is one of the people who actu-
ally collects recyclable material from
some of the hundreds of collection
points the ESP maintains all over
campus.
I think the contest is less about
trying to win the whole thing than
about improving ourselves, Norris
said. It kind of gives us a barom-
eter.
Since recycling is paid for by
students, there are limits to where
material can be collected. For
example, they cannot place bins on
privately funded residences such as
fraternities, sororities or Naismith
Hall. The institutional separation
of the University and KU Athletics
puts Allen Fieldhouse and Memorial
Stadium off limits as well.
For those outside of the Universitys
recycling limits but wanting to con-
tribute to RecycleMania, the ESP
maintains a large recycling bin in
the West Campus Park & Ride lot
at Clinton Parkway and Iowa Street.
Anyone can follow the competitions
prog-
ress on
t he Re -
cycleMa-
nia web-
site. The ESPs
KU Recycling
Facebook page also
provides updates about the competi-
tion and other program activities.
Dingus said she hoped students
would use the Facebook page to stay
informed of the recycling efforts.
They know that theres recycling
on campus, but they dont know the
extent of it, Dingus said.
She said the last container shipped
out contained 44,000 pounds of
material. The material is taken
by the ton to processing plants in
Topeka and cities inMissouri and
Wisconsin.
Dingus wants students to know
that participating in competitions
like RecycleMania is not all the
ESP does. Among other services,
it provides special collections on
request and maintains an inventory
of surplus office furniture and other
property that is available to students
at cost.
We want the students to know
that they pay for our services,
Dingus said. So we want them to
take full advantage of what we have
to offer.

New municipal
judge announced
Lawrence City Manager David
Corliss announced late last week
that Scott Miller, a current staf
attorney for the citys legal
department, will replace current
Municipal Judge randy McGrath
next month.
McGrath, a longtime judge for
the city, will be retiring in early
March. Miller, an employee of the
City of Lawrence since 2005, is a
former prosecutor for the City of
overland Park and an assistant
county attorney in Ellis County.
Miller is excited to start his work
and says he is proud to have the
opportunity to serve Lawrence at
this level.
Im very honored to hold the
position; to be appointed to the
position,Miller said. I think that
municipal court judges serve a
very important function and Im
glad that Ive been entrusted to be
the judge here,he said.
With the presence of a uni-
versity in the city, Miller said he
looked to see many cases from
in and around the campus and
hoped to serve the university
community well.
Students and members of
the university community are
also members of the Lawrence
community,Miller said. Certainly
the types of ofenses that are
handled in municipal court would
be the types of ofenses that many
students or members of the com-
munity might become involved
in,he said.
Miller will start his work as the
Lawrence municipal judge in early
March.

with politician Dennis Moore
cAmpUS
By Clayton ashley
cashley@kansan.com
On Tuesday, former 1st District
Congres s man
Dennis Moore
met with stu-
dents at a Pizza
and Politics
event hosted by
the Dole Institute
of Politics. Last
year, Moore
decided to retire
after 12 years
serving in congress. He and another
former congressman, Chet Edwards
of Texas 17th district, gave short
speeches calling for more civil-
ity in politics and taking questions
from the students in attendance.
Before the event, Moore agreed to
take a few questions from the Daily
Kansan.
Kansan: What do you think is a
pressing issue facing college students
right now?
Moore: The environment is a
huge, huge issue that we have to face
and we have to acknowledge is going
to have an impact on people living
on this earth in the future and do
the right thing. I think most people
know and understand that the envi-
ronment can have a tremendous
impact on future generations in our
country and in the world. And one
more thing, right here in our coun-
try weve got a huge national debt.
Weve got to start living within a
budget like most American fami-
lies. Again, thats going to affect
future generations unbelievably.
Kansan: Whats something stu-
dents may not know about what a
congressman does?
Moore: To me, some of the
most exciting things are when a
member of congress is able to get
something done that is important
to people. I heard a story on NPR
seven or eight years ago about our
troops in Afghanistan and Iraq. It
said they are there for six months,
the Department of Defense brings
them back for two weeks for what
they call R&R, rest and recupera-
tion with their family, and then they
go back and finish their year, and I
thought it was a great idea. The next
part of the story I heard, I could not
believe; it said the Department of
Defense just put them down on the
East Coast, in Baltimore, and theyre
told from there, you pay your own
way home, and by the way, be back
in two weeks so we can get you back
to Iraq. I didnt believe that, and
I had my staff check and, in fact,
it was true. I filed a bill to require
the Department of Defense to pay
for the domestic travel. Were not
even talking about a billion dol-
lars here, were talking about a few
million dollars to get people from
the East Coast to Kansas City or
Texas or wherever and then back
to the East Coast so they can finish
their term. My bill got passed and
became a law in a very unexpected
way. It didnt come up on the floor
for a vote, but I had a chance to talk
to Donald Rumsfeld, the Secretary
of Defense at the time, at a White
House Christmas party. He never
called me back and never wrote me
back, but two weeks after I talked
with him, he incorporated my bill
into the Defense Department bud-
get just like Id written it, and now
its law.
Kansan: Do you plan to stay
involved in politics now that youve
retired from congress?
Moore: I probably will be.
I was on the Board of Trustees
for Johnson County Community
College for seven years and had
to resign when I was elected to
congress. I was District Attorney
12 years before that, from 1977 to
1989. So Ive been in public service
for a couple of years. I really get
so much out of being able to give
back to my community. I hope a
lot of people in public service feel
the same way, because that to me is
the real reason to do it; not just to
feel good about yourself, but to give
back to the community.

they won the national champion-
ships during Eglinskis tenure.
At the time, the big univer-
sity school was the West Point
Military Academy, he said. It
was an upset to beat them.
Egl i nski cont i nued
Orienteering after college, eventu-
ally moving to Sweden to run and
study. He said the sports popular-
ity was much larger in Sweden,
allowing him to join a team that
would cover his racing expens-
es. He described his European
campaign as average. He won a
few races, his team qualified for
Swedish championships and he
participated in four world cham-
pionships, almost qualifying for
the final round once.
Eglinski said orienteering
participation in Lawrence has
declined since his days at the
University, but he is trying to
revive the scene.
Lawrence is a perfect town for
it, he said. In Kansas City, theres
an event you might have to drive
45 minutes there; here, the lon-
gest youd have to drive is 15.
Peter Gogol, 2004 graduate
from Cranson, R.I., was intro-
duced to the sport during a geog-
raphy class at the university. He
said for one of his labs, his teacher
held an orienteering session.
I know I got an A on that lab,
he said.
Gogol said his favorite aspect of
orienteering was exploring parts
of the outdoors that he would
otherwise not see. He said that
not many students were interest-
ed in the sport while he was at the
University he mainly orien-
teered with his wife and room-
mate and realized that a cer-
tain level of interest is required
to keep up with the sport. But
he said the sport could offer stu-
dents a competitive outlet with
little pressure and little cost.
A lot of road races cost like
20 bucks for a half-hour run,
he said. Orienteering is usually
around six dollars.
An average orienteering race is
an individual event that is about
three to five miles, or around an
hour and a half. Eglinski said that
equipment needs are very mini-
mal: comfortable shoes, outdoor-
friendly clothes and a compass.
The orienteering season is gener-
ally the same as a school year. He
said any students interested in
the sport should attend the next
event on March 5.

According to the release, the

recklessly, negligently or inten-

PAGe 5A tHe uniVersitY dAiLY KAnsAn
With the country besieged by snow, one
may ponder the issue of global warming.
Can what they say be true? Its so cold!
Until you realize that, oh right, climate
is not weather and the atmospheres
capacity to hold moisture increases when
it heats up, global warming begins to
make sense.
But why does this not make sense to so
many people?
It seems that in this silly war over
climate change, those who know what
theyre talking about often get drowned
out by those with more money and less
knowledge.
Its true. The scientific process leaves
room for error, and sometimes scientists
have less than pure intentions and desires
to achieve specific outcomes exciting or
groundbreaking work is more likely to get
published and whatnot.
A healthy skepticism for science is as
appropriate as it is for anything else. We
ought not accept things at face value, but
instead look for evidence and question
motives.
On both of these counts, science
generally looks all right. Its whole gig is
evidence and data, and scientists have
amassed an incredible amount of it that
supports the existence of climate change
and humans role in it. There are some
scientific organizations that take a non-
committal stance on the issue, but there
are many, many more across the world
that have come together in consensus on
the human effects on climate change.
Who, then, is virulently opposed to the
idea that humans have some role in the
changing climate and why?
Certainly there are diverse groups that
disagree with climate science for many
different reasons.
The most vocal and powerful deniers
consist of those with a stake in continuing
to operate as they always have regardless
of consequences, including the United
States Chamber of Commerce, which is
one of the most powerful lobbying groups
in the nation.
These groups have quite a lot to lose
if the public as a whole demanded clean
energy and reduction in greenhouse gas
emissions. They would have to pay more
taxes because of their carbon emissions, or
invest in developing alternative methods
of production.
No worries, though. They are working
hard to spend that money on deceiving
the public and the government about sci-
ence instead.
Keep in mind that the Koch broth-
ers, two of the most active opponents to
business regulation, are tied for the fifth
wealthiest people in the country. They and
other ultra-rich, ultra-powerful business-
men use quite a bit of their control and
cash to influence the media, fund ballot
measures and pour millions into lobbying
Washington officials against legislation
regulating climate change.
As a result, many of those in power
publicly disavow climate change. In
December, House Republicans dis-
mantled the Select Committee on Energy
Independence and Global Warming, and
the House Committee on Energy and
Commerce is now chaired by Paul Upton,
a congressman who seems intent upon
acting in favor of energy companies and
against regulation.
This is horrifying. All across the world,
scientists are confirming and re-confirm-
ing data on climate change, and very few
disagree that humans are playing a part
in it.
Projected effects of climate change
range from the inconvenient to the abso-
lutely disastrous, with more signs pointing
to the latter.
Everything from agricultural processes
to economies to coastlines and animal
plant populations to human habitats and
so much more will doubtless be affected
by rising global temperatures.
It is highly alarming that short-term
pursuit of profit by powerful corporations
is allowed to blind side us from these
future consequences.

Global warming doesnt depend on weather
WednesdAY, FeBruArY 16, 2011
We depend on our smart phones
to keep us connected to loved ones,
informed of current events and on
punctual time to Friday nights party.
According to a Pew Research report
featured in Wired magazine, 85
percent of American adults own a
cell phone.
Personal technology is well on
its way to becoming mans new best
friend. Unfortunately, our new best
friend has a dirty secret: one that
involves violence, rape and murder.
That secret now involves us.
Imagine that your hometown is
rich in the minerals that make cell
phones work. Imagine that groups of
militant rebels are getting rich selling
these minerals to electronics compa-
nies. Now imagine that one of these
gangs violently rapes your mother in
order to intimidate the community
and maintain control of these valu-
able resources. To us, this sounds like
a movie, but to hundreds of thou-
sands of women and children in the
Democratic Republic of Congo, this
is reality.
The sale of minerals such as tan-
talum, tungsten, tin and gold pro-
vide wealth and power to renegade
militias in the Democratic Republic
of Congo. Electronics manufactur-
ers purchase these minerals to make
cell phones, MP3 players, gaming
products and laptops. Over the last
decade, these militias have killed 5
million people and raped more than
200,000 women in order to maintain
control over mineral mines in the
Congo. Financing rape and murder
are obviously not our intentions
when we purchase a new cell phone,
and of course we didnt start this
cycle, but we are fueling it with every
electronic device we buy.
The geography of our global com-
munity may make us strangers, but
our humanity makes us family. We
would never finance the rape and
murder of our mothers, our sisters
and our children, so why are we
financing the rape and murder of
someone elses mother, sister and
child?
One solution to this problem is
for electronics manufacturers to
diligently track the origin of these
minerals and refuse to purchase
those minerals coming from conflict
zones. As of now they are not doing
this, and it is up to us to demand that
they do. To learn how you can tell
companies like Apple and HP to stop
buying conflict minerals, visit www.
enoughproject.org.

Im really not looking forward to
telling the story of my 21st birthday for
the rest of my life. Mainly because it
includes the phrases, I went to Fatsos
and it was like an awful, hot high
school dance and, No, I did not take
any birthday shots, because Im not into
projectile vomiting on my friends.
I know this is sort of taboo and shiz
for a college kid to say, but alcohol
just isnt my thing. Beer and wine are
alright beverages, and sometimes I
enjoy tasting their strange flavors, but
Im not into tweeting, I m Ssi drunk
righy now11! and puking peppermint
schnapps in my shower.
The whole night of my 21st birth-
day, I couldnt help but wonder what it
would have been like had weed been
legalized already. NPRs All Things
Considered, unsurprisingly, did a pret-
ty rad report in 2009 entitled What
If Marijuana Were Legal? Possible
Outcomes.
The report was from a hypothetical
world in which marijuana had been
legalized two years prior and I think
NPR was a bit worried a few conser-
vacrabs would faint on the spot (a
la Orson Welles famous War of the
Worlds radio play), so the guy report-
ing says something like, THIS IS
ONLY HYPOTHETICAL, YOU GUYS,
DONT FREAK OUT, K? like eight
times throughout the report.
The report highlights a lot of great
stuff that would come out of marijua-
nas legalization (including its economic
stimulation), but does not spend much
time on the legal consumption age.
In the report, NPR assumes the
legal age of consumption would be 21,
which makes sense. It would have been
wonderful to celebrate my 21st birth-
day with a ton of cannabis as opposed
to burning poison.
I mean, to each their own, but I can
only imagine how my 21st birthday
would have gone in this perfect weed-
is-totally-legal-for-real-yall world.
I assume that Lawrence would have
some marijuana bars I like to imagine
that Lawrence would have one thats
just a huge arcade or full of a bunch of
TVs showing Rugrats or something.
My friends and I would smoke. Im
sure there would be some stupid Take
21 hits in a row, bro! type 21st celebra-
tion thing that I would not participate
in, because I wouldnt want to rip the
skin off of my esophagus.
They would buy me some brown-
ies or something, and maybe the bar
would have some birthday mini-
cupcake for 21st birthdays and Id be
all like, Aw, thanks. This is the best
birthday ever! The bar might have
some discussion room, so we could go
there after a while and have the obliga-
tory, What if the colors I see arent the
colors you see?! discussion.
Then, to top off the night, we
could take a very high walk around
Massachusetts St. I can only assume
my twin sister would have done the
alcohol-thing on our 21st, and we
could have met up afterwards and gone
to IHOP. Her, drunk, and me, high as
a kite. And we would both think our
pancakes were the best food wed ever
eaten.
What a wonderful, wonderful world.

Teams lack of practice
leads to loss in showdown
LAcROSSE
BY BLAKE SCHUSTER
bschuster@kansan.com
After only two full outdoor
practices and plenty of weightlift-
ing sessions, the KU mens club
lacrosse team made the 600-mile
trek to Nashville, Tenn., for a week-
end showdown with Vanderbilt,
Clemson and division rival
Memphis.
While the Jayhawks went 1-2
over the weekend, they picked up
a big win by pummeling Memphis
17-7. The Jayhawks would end up
dropping their next two games,
losing 13-7 to Vanderbilt and 17-8
to Clemson.
With the two full practices we
had before our games, it just wasnt
enough, coach Dennis Shults said.
The players agreed that only
having two practices may not have
prepared them for the weekends
tougher opponents.
I think we played well,
Tyler Cauble, a freshman from
Libertyville, Ill., said. We were a
little rusty because we hadnt had
an outdoor practice yet, but I think
that we showed a lot of potential.
While KU lost two games, Shults
said they did not go down without
a fight.
We got complimented from
Clemsons coach about how we
never gave up, Shults said.
Aside from the win over
Memphis, the Jayhawks came back
from Nashville boasting the nation
leader in points per game, Francis
Enright.
Enright, a senior from Winnetka,
Ill., scored 14 points, six goals,
and eight assists over the week-
end, including five goals and three
assists in the Jayhawks only win.
Enright is currently averaging
4.67 points per game; he finished
last season with an average of 5.3
points per game.
On the other side of the spec-
trum, uncharacteristically lacklus-
ter goaltending and defense gave
way to KUs losses to the heav-
ily favored squads from Vanderbilt
and Clemson.
Ryan Mattie, a senior from
Overland Park, who appeared in
two games for the Jayhawks, yield-
ed 57.9 percent in saves, and Brian
Wright, a Deerfield, Ill., junior who
played in three games, now holds a
50 percent average in saves.
Coach Shults said he was both-
ered by the fact that the Jayhawks
had plenty of shots on net, but were
unable to turn them into goals.
Tim MacArthur, a freshman from
Tallahassee, Fla., led the team with
three posts.
But off the field, Shults said he
was very pleased at how well the
team bonded together over the
course of the trip.
The trip was an important first
step in getting everybody to work
together as a team, Shults said.
The club team will have a little
more than a week to prepare for
their next opponent, division rival
Iowa, in Iowa City on February 25.

mates in practice so far.
Since Ive been here, hes one of
the best freshman Ive seen, Lytle
said. He has a great swing.
Senior pitcher T.J. Walz will
anchor the pitching staff this season.
Walz, winner of Kansas Baseballs
Pitcher of the Year Award in 2010, is
coming off of back-to-back strong
seasons for the Jayhawks.
Along with Walz, Wally Marciel
and Tanner Poppe will round out
the starting rotations top three.
Poppe returns after a strong 2010
season, where he won the teams
Rookie of the Year Award. Marciel
will be back in the starting rotation
for the first time since his sopho-
more campaign. He sat out in 2009
because of Tommy John surgery
and last year, his role primarily
came from the bullpen.
I was pretty happy. I never
thought I would be able to come
back [from surgery] and be a start-
er, Marciel said. Its a thrill.
The Big 12 coaches projected
Kansas to finish ninth out of 10 in
the Big 12 this year, but that has yet
to put a damper on any of the play-
ers mindset for this season.
Before you know it, we may be
in the top five. We just have to keep
competing every day, Marciel said.
Just as the Jayhawks disappoint-
ed last season, they hope to surprise
in this one. Expectations are no
longer sky-high and in years past,
the Jayhawks have preformed best
flying under the radar.
It wont take long to get a read
on this years team. They open the
season at No. 1 TCU on Friday.

Halftime record leads
miami Heat to victory
ASSOCIATED PRESS
INDIANAPOLIS Dwyane
Wade tied a franchise record for
most points in a first half with 31,
and finished with 41 overall to help
the Miami Heat defeat the Indiana
Pacers 110-103 on Tuesday night.
Wade also finished with
12 rebounds for the Heat, who
bounced back from a loss to Boston
on Sunday.
LeBron James scored 10 of his
27 points in the fourth quarter and
Chris Bosh added 22 points and
eight rebounds for Miami, which
has won eight of nine.
Roy Hibbert scored 18 points
and Tyler Hansbrough added 16
for the Pacers. Indiana has won
seven of nine under interim coach
Frank Vogel, with both losses com-
ing against the Heat.
Miami led by 24 points in the
first half, then lost the lead before
regaining it for good in the fourth
quarter.
They led 41-19 at the end of the
quarter. It was the most points the
Heat have scored in a quarter and
their highest point differential in a
quarter this season.
The Pacers went to their bench
and flipped the script. Led by
Hansbrough, the Pacers shot 64
percent in the second quarter.
Indiana outscored the Heat 35-17
in the period and trailed 58-54 at
halftime.
The Pacers took a 73-68 lead
when George made three free
throws after getting fouled on a
3-pointer with 5:33 left in the third
quarter.
Miami regained the lead with
a 6-0 run, and the advantage see-
sawed through the rest of the quar-
ter. Hansbrough hit a mid-range
jumper as time expired in the third
quarter to give the Pacers an 83-82
lead.

...Marv Albert could follow you around

...Dr. Dre would just drop Detox

asking this question and it wont be freed
until a) Dre drops the album, b) Dre offi-

mogul dies.
...Jim Zorn wasnt just hired to coach the
Chiefs quarterbacks?
...the spring football game would arrive
sooner? Im ready to see Turner Gills

...college football was best in the post-

...the NFL wouldnt lock out its players
and extend to an 18-game season?
...Tim Raines would make the MLB Hall

...they could return a Novak Djokovic
serve? Im not asking for five sets here.
...more professional athletes were willing
to take pay cuts to win championships?
...less kids were handed Ritalin or
Adderall right out of the womb?
...Blake Griffin didnt get hurt and miss
all of last season?
...Kansas City, Mo., had an NBA team?
...they knew that guy with the deep raspy
voice who does just about every single
movie preview?
...Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Manny
Pacquiao would actually happen?
...the Pittsburgh Pirates would make the
playoffs some time this century?
...more young people listened to jazz?
...Earl Boykins would dunk on LeBron?
...Neil Young would play a show in
Lawrence for less than half the cost of out-
of-state tuition?
...that people would remember Ken
Griffey Jr. as the greatest hitter of his era

it without steroids?
...this Morning Brew would end?

A
few weeks ago I
dont remember the
exact date, but it was
while Kansas State was bearing
straight for the NIT fresh-
man guard Will Spradling
offered up his thoughts on why
the Wildcats were struggling
so much. There is a leadership
void, he said, with senior point
guard Jacob Pullen sitting next
to him. No one on the team
was stepping up to right the
ship.
Monday night, that problem
wasnt the Wildcats. It was the
Jayhawks.
Im leaving out of here not
really recognizing the team that
played tonight, coach Bill Self
said. Weve got to get some
things straight.
Starting with figuring out
who, among the trio of juniors
that the team calls its leaders,
will actually step up and lead.
Marcus and Markieff Morris
are both brilliant talents. No
one will argue that. Marcus
could be an All-American,
Markieff has a shot at all-
league. But both have critical
mental lapses that wind up
in technicals (Marcus against
Texas, for example) or inten-
tionals (Markieff against
Kansas State). Now they have
a reputation, fair or not, for
being dirty players.
Its no coincidence that in
both of Kansas losses, the
twins have been off their game,
whether because of foul trouble
or suffocating defense. As the
twins go, so goes Kansas.
Tyshawn Taylor has been off
in both losses as well, particu-
larly on the defensive side of
the ball. Texas backup point
JCovan Brown scored 23 and
Jacob Pullen put up a career-
high 38. Taylor spent time on
both of them.
Monday night was filled
with mental errors for Taylor
as well. He let one turnover
snowball into six and let his
frustration show on the court.
Hes kept his cool off the court
this year, which is a big step
in the right direction, but he
still lets the outcome of the
play before dictate what hap-
pens next when hes out there.
Point guards, like pitchers
and quarterbacks, need short
memories. Taylor needed to
forget that he turned the ball
over and stopped Jacob Pullen.
He didnt do that.
It cost Kansas Monday, and
it could continue to do so
down the road.
Heres the good news: Its a
fool who counts Kansas out of
the national title race this early
on. The Jayhawks have argu-
ably the best offense in the
country and, statistically, they
have the defense to match. The
talent is there to win a nation-
al championship, and four of
Kansas title-winning teams
have lost to Kansas State.
But its a greater fool who
doesnt acknowledge the fact
that Kansas, especially the
team that played Monday
night, has a long road to walk
before that discussion becomes
reality.

The Jayhawk womens golf team
placed second in the Claude Jacobs
Intercollegiate in Victoria, Texas
this past weekend. With a total
team round score of 920 for the
weekend, they only trailed Texas
State for first place by eight strokes.
The Jayhawks entered the final
round in fourth place and moved
up two spots in
the final round
to take second
overall.
Meghna Bal,
a senior from
New Delhi,
India, tied for
third place
overall in the
t o u r na me nt .
Her final stroke count of 227 for
the entire tournament was the sec-

other Jayhawks placed in the top
sixty this weekend. Meghan Potee,

Although the Jayhawks beat Memphis 17-7 in the frst game, inadequate practice left them unable to beat Vanderbilt or Clemson
later in the tournament. The team next travels to Iowa City to take on division rival Iowa Feb. 25.

@Kylescottross
The team will at least make the Final Four. When we won
in 08 we had a close group but no standout leader. This
team is like that.
@xDYlx
At least Sweet Sixteen. Anything after is up in the air.
Depends on T-Robs health and if our defense can step up.
@melanierr
I like to think that theyll pull together and do well, but I
could also see it being a Bradley or Bucknell year.
@Jays_Fan2
If healthy, I dont see why they cant make a strong push
for a National Championship.
@tomfehr
Cant tell yet. If I had to bet? Elite Eight. But I can eas-
ily see a second round fop or a title run (if Selby and
Tyshawn play well).
Added players bring hope for 2011 season

The snow has been cleared, reveal-
ing the new plush $1.2 million turf.
The weather starts to heat back up
and the frequent pop of a baseball
meeting a bat can be heard now
at Hoglund Ballpark. This can only
mean one thing: Its baseball season
at Kansas.
Coach Ritch Price, now in his
ninth season at Kansas, leads the
Jayhawk squad, whose roster is full
of question marks.
I think to lose three first-team
all-conference players in one season
is pretty unique, Price said.
Last season, the Jayhawks came
into the year with high expectations
and were picked by the leagues
coaches to finish second in the Big
12. The Jayhawks season ended
up being anything but success-
ful, as the team finished 7th in
the conference.
Its going to be tough for
Kansas to replace their three
top hitters: Brian Heere,
Robby Price and Tony
Thompson. Leading the
Jayhawk lineup this year is
senior Jimmy Waters, the
top returning hitter from
last years squad, who bat-
ted .309 while belting nine
home runs and driving in
63 runs.
Its going to be a lot dif-
ferent for me not hitting
behind Heere, Robby and
Tony, Waters said. We have
to have guys step up and fill
those shoes. I think theyre
very capable of it, and Im look-
ing forward to seeing how it
goes.
But what the Jayhawks lost in
star power, they might gain in tal-
ent from top to bottom. First base-
men Zac Elgie, right fielder Casey
Lytle, and shortstop Brandon Macias
could all prove to be big bats for
Kansas this year.
I dont think we are capable indi-
vidually of replacing those three guys
in our lineup; what Im hopeful for is
that we will be more solid No. 1-9 in
the batting order, coach Price said.
New to the lineup this year will be
freshman Kaiana Eldredge. Eldregde
will open the year starting at
second base. The young man
from Honolulu has made quite
an impression on his team-
RIGHT FIELD - Casey Lytle
3RD BASE - Jake Marasco
1ST BASE - Zac Elgie
SHORT STOP - Brandon Macias
2ND BASE - Kaiana Eldredge
LEFT FIELD - Jimmy Waters
CENTER FIELD - Jason Brunansky
Coming of an injury last season, the Po-
way, Calif., product provides the Jayhawks
with range in centerfeld. Although he
only played in 23 games in 2010, Brunan-
sky posted a .466 OBP. He batted .280 in
his freshman season and provided fashy
moments with his glove. Freshman lefty
Jordan Brown may platoon with Brunan-
sky depending on the pitching matchup,
according to coach Rich Price.

Tanner Poppe

PITCHERS
CATCHER - James Stanfeld
Beginning his third
year as a starter, Wa-
ters, a senior from
Council Blufs, Iowa,
returns some much
needed pop to the
lineup. He led the
Jayhawks last year
with nine homers
and 63 RBI. The left-
handed slugger will
likely bat cleanup
and looks to lower
his team-high 46
strikeouts from a
year ago. He was
also second on
the team with 16
doubles. He led the
outfeld with 98 put-
outs and recorded
only three errors.
Winner of the Walt Houck Newcomer of
the Year Award, Brandon Macias looks
to be back in a big way for the Jayhawks
this year. The transfer from South
Mountain Community College hit .290
for the Jayhawks in 55 starts last year.
Macias tore up conference opponents
batting .345 in conference play last year.
Macias will be a key component for the
Jayhawks baseball team this year.
The freshman out of Honolulu,
Hawaii, will be making a big splash
into the Jayhawks starting lineup
this spring. Eldredge is out of Pu-
nahou High School, winner of the
last seven state championships in
a row. Eldredge also played This
summer Eldredge was named the
number two prospect in the Hawai-
ian Collegiate Baseball League, and
he will be a welcomed addition to
the Jayhawks lineup this season.
Jake Marasco, a redshirt sophomore, started in
28 games for the Jayhawks last season, hitting
.273 with 12 doubles and 19 runs scored. The
All-Big 12 Academic First Teamer fnished with
a perfect felding percentage for the Jayhawks
last year. The 6-3 third baseman has got to be
big for Kansas this year.
Looking to bounce back from a
disappointing 2009-2010 cam-
paign, Zac Elgie will be starting
at frst base for the Jayhawks.
Elgie started 20 games last
season, batting .226 with four
homeruns and 14 RBIs. Elgie will
look to return to his freshman
year form where he started 28
games and batted .305 with
three homeruns and 9 RBIs.
Lytle, a senior from Phoenix, Ariz., provided gritty play last season and
hopes to improve in his third year as a starter. Winner of the 2010 Mike Hill
Sr. Hustle Award, Lytle swiped a team-high 14 bases and was hit by pitch a
school-record 22 times. A contact hitter, he will likely bat at the top of the
lineup and increase the use of his speed in the running game, something
frst-year assistant coach Jay Uhlman has stressed since he arrived.

page 6a
Twins and others showed weaknesses that could cost victory
See GOLF on page 6a
This will likely be a platoon at least for the
early part of the season. Stanfeld struggled
to hit well for the Jayhawks last season.
Stanfeld hit .238 while starting 43 games at
catcher last year and eight at third base. He
hit .305 in Jayhawk home games last year
and will have to be more consistent at the
plate for Kansas this season.
