“YOU COME TO KU FOR THE TRADITION, AND YOU LEAVE A PART OF IT.” DANNY MANNING

Hail to Old KU!

THE K RING The K Ring symbolizes a uniquely shared experience between generations of varsity letter winners at the University of Kansas. As a Jayhawk you are expected to uphold tradition and retain the characteristics of a champion while continuing the create your own legacy.

5.

WAVING THE WHEAT Since the early days of KU sports, it has been a ritual of Jayhawk fans to “wave the wheat” following every Kansas scoring drive in football. The tradition also extends to Allen Fieldhouse where fans “wave the wheat” when an opponent fouls out and at the conclusion of every Jayhawk victory. The ritual consists of fans waving their arms in the air, an activity which, when done by a large crowd, resembles a breezy Kansas wheat field.

6.

THE ROCK CHALK CHANT The Rock Chalk Chant has been the battle cry of KU fans for more than 80 years. This strange, traditional chant, which is among the most famous of all college cheers, was started by E.H.S. Bailey, a professor of chemistry. On May 21, 1886, Bailey submitted the cheer to his club.

O

CAMPANILE HILL Campanile Hill forms the picturesque backdrop for Memorial Stadium. On a sunny fall Saturday, the “Hill” is transformed into a congregating place for watching Jayhawk football, sunning and barbequing. Potter Lake, just to the southwest of Memorial Stadium and at the bottom of Campanile Hill, adds to the beauty of the Kansas campus.

THE ALMA MATER In 1891, professor George Barlow Penny searched for a school song for the Glee and Mandolin Club to sing on its tour through Kansas to Denver and back. No one responded with an original song in answer to his appeals. Just before departure, he thought of the Cornell song “Far Above Cayuga’s Waters.” Hastily changing a few words, he gave it to the glee club men to sing on the trip. He did not expect the song to be used after their return, but “Crimson and the Blue” still goes on. The music is not Cornell’s but an old English folk tune, “Annie Lisle.”

“GIVE THE WORLD THE BEST YOU’VE GOT AND THE BEST WILL COME BACK TO YOU.”

THE NICKNAME: JAYHAWK The University of Kansas is the home of the Jayhawk, a mythical bird with a fascinating history. Its origin is rooted in the historic struggles of Kansas settlers. The term “Jayhawk” was probably coined about 1848. Accounts of its use appeared from Illinois to Texas. The name combines two birds - the blue jay, a noisy, quarrelsome thing known to rob other nests, and the sparrow hawk, a stealthy hunter.

KATELYN, AVARY, KARSEN Todd Chapman wasted little time making his mark on the Kansas women’s tennis program. Chapman, who was named head women’s tennis coach at KU in June 2013, led the Jayhawks back to the NCAA Championship for the first time in 17 years in just his third season at the helm of the KU program. A year later, the Jayhawks were back in the NCAAs marking the first back-to-back postseason berths in 18 years. Chapman’s short four-year tenure at Kansas is littered with program firsts and the erasing of decadelong droughts, as he continues to orchestrate the program’s return to the national stage. The 2017 season was another example, as not only did the Jayhawks return to the NCAA Tournament but KU also sent a program-best four student-athletes to the prestigious Riviera ITA Women’s All-American Championship and also had a doubles team earn an at-large bid to the Division I NCAA Women’s Tennis Championship for the first time since 1998. In addition, the Jayhawks earned a No. 14 national ranking in February and remained in the top-25 for seven-consecutive weeks. Chapman also continued to show his prowess in player development. Anastasia Rychagova earned her

The 2016 campaign saw the Jayhawks post a 17-8 overall mark, including a 6-3 ledger in Big 12 play, garnering them a tie for second place in the league standings. Under Chapman’s tutelage, Anastasia Rychagova was tabbed the Big 12 Freshman of the Year and the ITA Central Region Newcomer of the Year. Additionally, Rychagova was named All-Big 12 First Team, while Khmelnitckaia joined her fellow Russian native on the Big 12 All-Freshman Team. For his efforts in elevating the KU program, Chapman was named the 2016 ITA Central Region Coach of the Year. Chapman, who helped coach Texas Tech to the 2012 and 2013 Big 12 regular-season titles, guided Kansas to eight-consecutive wins to open his inaugural season overseeing the Jayhawk program in 2014. Chapman followed up his impressive opening campaign at the helm of the KU program by leading the Jayhawks to their best Big 12 Conference finish in six years. KU collected four conference victories in 2015, including a road win over No. 29 Oklahoma. As an assistant coach at Tech for four years, Chapman helped elevate the Red Raiders from eighth place in the Big 12 in 2009 to the school’s first-ever bids to the NCAA Tournament in 2012 and 2013. Over his last three seasons in Lubbock he helped Tech achieve its highest national rankings in school history -39th in 2011, 17th in 2012 and 15th in 2013. Tech reached the second round of the team competition in 2013’s NCAA Tournament, and their All-Big 12 duo of

Samantha Adams and Kenna Kilgo reached the NCAA round of 16 in the doubles draw. Prior to his tenure at Texas Tech, Chapman earned Southland Conference Coach of the Year honors as the head men’s and women’s coach at the University of Texas-Pan American (2001-03). He led UTPA to its first national ranking in 12 years and to a second-place finish in the Southland, the highest conference finish in the school’s history. Chapman spent two years (1999-2001) as the head men’s and women’s coach at the University of Science & Arts of Oklahoma, an NAIA school in Chickasha, Oklahoma. There, his teams achieved national rankings of No. 17 (men) and No. 15 (women), and made back-to-back appearances in the NAIA Tournament. Chapman earned success as a head coach at the high school level as well, leading Wichita Falls (Texas) High School to three-straight Class 4A state quarterfinals (2006-08). As a player at Cameron University in Lawton, Oklahoma, (1994-98), Chapman helped his team to four NCAA Division II Tournaments and a national ranking as high as No. 12. The two-time Lone Star Conference Scholar-Athlete achieved a national ranking in doubles as high as 17. He began his coaching career as an assistant coach (1998-99) for his alma mater’s men’s and women’s teams, both of whom were ranked in the Top 25. Chapman and his wife, Amy, have five daughters: Lauren, Madison, Katelyn, Avary and Karsen.

Kansas women’s tennis head coach Todd Chapman added an integral piece to his program when he announced the hiring of Caroline Lilley as assistant coach on May 13, 2015. Lilley joined the Jayhawk staff after a standout career as a player at Georgia Tech and a successful stint in a similar coaching role at Gonzaga.

A Portland, Oregon native, Lilley spent the two seasons prior to joining the KU staff as an assistant coach at Gonzaga, helping the Bulldogs to a 12-9 mark in 2014-15, including a win over No. 55 UC Irvine.

National recognition is nothing new for Lilley as she had an accomplished playing career at both Kentucky (freshman and sophomore) and Georgia Tech (junior and senior). As a player, Lilley was ranked in both singles and doubles competition with highs of No. 67 and No. 6, respectively. As a senior at Georgia Tech, Lilley helped the club take down an eighth-ranked Alabama squad, 4-3, with a third-set come-from-behind thriller. Lilley claimed the final four games to earn her team the victory. As a junior, she posted a personal best 2612 record. Graduating with a business administration degree with a concentration in finance, Lilley left Georgia Tech with the second-best doubles winning percentage of any player. She compiled an impressive 38-17 record including a 20-7 mark in dual match play for a 69.1 winning percentage.

2016-17 REVIEW In his fourth year, head coach Todd Chapman led the Kansas women’s tennis team back to the national stage for a second-consecutive year. The Jayhawks started strong in the fall and were able to maintain that effort in the spring and find their way to the NCAA Championships after 2016’s berth broke a 17-year drought.

In late February, the Jayhawks broke into the top-25 at No. 14, earning the program’s best ranking since Kansas ended the 1994 season at No. 7. After entering the poll at No. 14, KU spent seven-consecutive weeks in the top-25 and ended the season as the No. 39 team in the nation. Of Kansas’ 22 opponents, 16 teams were ranked among the top-50 at some point during the season. Throughout Big 12 Conference play, KU was ranked along with six other league opponents. In March, the Jayhawks defeated No. 22 TCU for the first time in program history with a 4-1 victory. During the same weekend, BernardFeigenbaum earned a career-best win over No. 6-ranked Texas Tech’s No. 40 Felicity Maltby with a 7-6 (7-2), 7-6 (7-3) win at No. 2 singles. Kansas went on to win four straight before injury struck the team for the second year in a row. Down to just five players, KU was in the heart of its schedule - left to face five ranked teams, play in the Big

Although the team portion of the spring season had come to a close, Bernard-Feigenbaum and Khmelnitckaia were headed to the NCAA Division I Women’s Tennis Championships. Earning an at-large berth, the duo became the first Jayhawks to participate in the Championships since 1998. In the first round, the No. 37-ranked doubles team rallied from a 4-0 deficit to post a 3-6, 6-4, 10-8 victory over the No. 2-seeded team of Jasmine Lee and Lisa Marie Rioux of Mississippi State, marking a career-best win for both players. Bernard-Feigenbaum and Khmelnitckaia were not able to rally in the Round of 16, dropping the match to Denver’s No. 17-ranked Julia O’Loughlin and Maureen Slattery, 6-4, 6-2, officially ending the 2016-17 campaign.

REVIEW

Starting the season at the Little Rock Invitational in September, three Jayhawks took home titles. Sophomore Anastasia Rychagova was named Champion of Flight A Singles, while freshmen Tatiana Nikolaeva and Maria Toran Ribes were named Co-Champions of Flight C Singles. In October, Kansas had four players selected to participate in the prestigious Riviera Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA) Women’s AllAmerican Championship for the first itme since 2011. Partnering for the first time at the ITA Central Regional, the doubles pair of senior transfer Tess Bernard-Feigenbaum and sophomore Nina Khmelnitckaia won five-straight matches before falling in the title draw.

12 Championship and await its fate for the NCAA Tournament. After a strong regular season, the Jayhawks were set to face No. 32-ranked Notre Dame in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. The shorthanded No. 34 Kansas team went toe-to-toe with Notre Dame throughout the match, but was not able to top the Fighting Irish and fell, 4-3, ending the season with a 13-11 record.

HIGHLIGHTS Kansas earned a No. 14 ranking in February and then stayed in the top-25 for seven-consecutive weeks. Overall, 16 of KU’s 22 opponents were ranked among the top-50 at some point in the season. The Jayhawks defeated TCU, 4-1, for the first time in program history. Kansas was selected for the NCAA Championship in back-to-back years for the first time since 1998-99. The doubles team of senior transfer Tess Bernard-Feigenbaum and sophomore Nina Khmelnitckaia became the first Jayhawks to earn an at-large berth to the Division I Women’s Tennis Championship since 1998. The duo earned a career-best win against a ranked opponent in Mississippi State’s No. 2-seeded Jasmine Lee and Lisa Marie Rious, 3-6, 6-4, 10-8. Bernard-Feigenbaum became the first Jayhawk in league history to be named the Big 12 Newcomer of the Year. Kansas saw three players named to the All-Big 12 postseason lists, including Singles First Team selection, sophomore Anastasia Rychagova. The Jayhawks ended the 2016-17 season with a 13-11 record.

2017-18 OUTLOOK After returning to the NCAA Championship for the second-consecutive year, head coach Todd Chapman and the Kansas women’s tennis team head into the 2017-18 season with hopes that their new-found standard will continue.

The Jayhawks return six out of seven players from last year’s team, which ranked No. 39 nationally, ended with a 13-11 mark and finished the season tied for sixth in the highly competitive Big 12 Conference. They include juniors Nina Khmelnitckaia, Janet Koch and Anastasia Rychagova, along with sophomores

Tatiana Nikolaeva, Maria Toran Ribes and redshirt freshman Amber Policare. “The biggest thing I’m looking forward to is that we have six players coming back,” said Chapman. “We’ve been a very young team for the last several


49

years and haven’t returned very many. From a results and positioning standpoint with our program, we have the opportunity to take some great strides and move in a direction that everyone can be proud of.” By returning six players in the lineup, the expectations surrounding the Jayhawks are at new heights. Kansas welcomes two newcomers – senior transfer Despoina Vogasari and freshman Carla Pons Martorell.

“Bringing Debbie (Vogasari) in has the opportunity to be a really big addition to our team,” said Chapman. “Three years of experience playing at number one, being in the national rankings, two National Indoors, the NCAA Singles Championship; she brings with her a confidence and an experience level that you don’t gain all the time in these situations.” Pons Martorell, the lone true freshman on the team, is from Oliva, Valencia, Spain. In high school, she won the Spanish Doubles Championship, was named Champion of the Valencian Community, was a semifinalist in the Spanish Championship, and her team won the Valencian Community Championship and the Spanish Champnionship.

Joining Khmelnitckaia and Rychagova in the rankings is fellow junior Koch. Vogasari and Koch will kick off the 2017-18 season ranked as the No. 50 doubles pair. “Janet has two really good years of experience under her belt,” said Chapman. “I look for her to get a little bit of her confidence and swagger back she had her freshman year. She put in good work this summer and will provide a lot of depth and experience in our lineup.” Both Nikolaeva and Toran Ribes recorded 20 singles wins during their freshman seasons. After Toran Ribes’ season ended in late March due to injury, Nikolaeva stepped up to play in the No. 5 spot for the Jayhawks.

“It’s a huge opportunity for the University of Kansas to host the ITA Central Regional Championship,” said Chapman. “We’re excited about bringing all of the teams in our region to Lawrence to showcase the facility we’re so proud of and fortunate to have. It’s a great opportunity for us to show that we can put on a really good event and that our facility has the capability to successfully host large events. “The last four years we haven’t played an event at home, so to have two events at home this fall is really exciting. The team gets to play in front of the home crowd in the fall and it’s an opportunity for fans and people who follow the program to see our new players and returners play before we get into the spring.”

H

“Maria was off to a really good start for the first two thirds of the season before she was hampered with injury and unable to finish the spring season. She was doing a great job singles and doubles wise. We

Kansas and the Jayahwk Tennis Center will play host for two fall tournaments, the ITA Regional Championship from October 19 to 23 and the Kansas Invitational the following weekend, October 27 to 29.

“Tanya has worked hard,” said Chapman. “By the end of the season she was playing her best tennis. For her, it’s the same as a couple other players on our team; if Tanya starts to believe in herself the way that she should, she has the opportunity to really spring board from last year’s season.

“The Amber who is on our team right now is completely different than the Amber who showed up in Lawrence in January,” said Chapman. “She’s really matured, learned how to push herself and be much tougher. I’m really proud of the work she put in last spring and this summer. She’s positioned herself mentally and physically to have a great freshman season.”

R

“Nina is one who has really grown as a player in her two years on the court,” said Chapman. “She gained a lot of good experience this past season, especially in doubles. Having a great year in doubles, making the NCAA Tournament and making the Round of 16 hopefully gives her some confidence of where she is in her game and belief that she can compete on an elite level. She’s one that has the opportunity to have

“Nas has had a really good start to her career,” said Chapman. “She had a really good summer building off her freshman and sophomore seasons. I look for her to have the opportunity to break out and continue building upon her game. She’s an extremely intelligent player. A very gritty player.”

Policare, the lone redshirt on the team, graduated high school early and joined the Jayhawks for the spring 2017 season. Although she did not see any match time, Policare contributed to the team during practice and warmups.

Khmelnitckaia, who posted an 18-9 singles record and a 22-14 doubles mark last year, will enter the season ranked with Rychagova as the No. 37 doubles team in the nation.

Coming off of a season where she put up a 25-8 singles record, Rychagova nabbed the No. 35 spot in the preseason rankings.

hope that we can keep her healthy and she can build upon those experiences, positive and negative, from last year and use those entering her sophomore year to be a major part of what we’re trying to do on and off the court.”

Kt

“We’re excited to get Carla out on the courts and see where she’s at,” said Chapman. “We believe in her talents and what type of player she can be by our recruitment of her. During someone’s freshman year, there’s always a maturation process, a transition process and you just don’t know, as a coach, how long it’s going to take for them to settle in. My hope is that it happens sooner rather than later. At some point this season it’s going to click for her and we’re going to see the abilities she has. We definitely believe she can be an impact player for us this season.”

a year where she establishes herself as a player on the national scene if she will just believe in herself as much as we do.”

OUTLOOK

Looking to bounce back from injury, Vogasari will complete her last year of eligibility with the Jayhawks. For her first three years, Vogasari played at the University of Houston, where she became the first Cougar since 2002 to qualify for the NCAA Singles Championship and made two appearances at the USTA/ITA National Indoor Championships.

DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS Dr. Sheahon (SHAY-un) Zenger’s genuine care for coaches and student-athletes has hallmarked his career in intercollegiate athletics. That care, which he has exhibited since his arrival as Athletics Director in January 2011, has helped KU’s coaches and student-athletes achieve outstanding performances on both the conference and national stages. Highlights include:

COACHING HISTORY

Stressing a culture of competitiveness and citizenship, Zenger has instituted KU Leads, a student-athlete development program dedicated to fostering committed leaders and supporting career development. Zenger came to KU after serving for five years as athletics director at Illinois State University, helping steer ISU Athletics to a place of prominence in the Missouri Valley Conference. He earned two degrees from Kansas State before coming to KU to earn his Ph.D. in educational policy and leadership, strengthening his understanding of university leadership at the highest levels.

HISTORY

DR. SHEAHON ZENGER

• A National Championship for the Women’s Outdoor Track & Field team, and seven individual national championships. • NCAA Final Four and two Elite 8 appearances for Men’s Basketball and seven Big 12 Conference regular-season championships, raising that streak of titles to a record-tying 13. • NCAA Final Four and Sweet 16 (and five straight NCAA) appearances for Volleyball. • Two NCAA Sweet 16 appearances for Women’s Basketball. • NCAA Tournament appearances for Softball (twice), Soccer (twice), Men’s Golf (twice), Tennis (twice), Baseball and Women’s Golf. • Four National Coach-of-the-Year awards – Stanley Redwine, women’s track and field; Bill Self, men’s basketball; Ray Bechard, volleyball, and Laura Kuhn (assistant coach), volleyball – and several Big 12 Conference Coach-of-the-Year awards – Self (four times), Bechard (four times), Redwine (three times) and Clark Campbell, swimming (twice). In addition, tennis coach Todd Chapman was named 2016 Coach of the Year for the Central Region after leading the Jayhawks to their first NCAA Tournament appearance in 17 years.

Fall 2015 saw the opening of McCarthy Hall, which houses the men’s basketball team and an equal number of non-student-athletes. The beautiful new, nationally acclaimed Rock Chalk Park, home to KU soccer, softball, and track and field, has already hosted USA, NCAA and Big 12 Conference meets, and more are on the horizon. And the new Jayhawk Tennis Center, a 12-court indoor-outdoor complex at Rock Chalk Park, now houses the KU tennis team.

Zenger is married to the former Pam McAnarney; they have three children: Luke and Abby, who are in college, and Jake, who’s in high school.

Zenger has spearheaded some $90 million in new Kansas Athletics facilities as well – improvements he expects will help KU’s coaches and student-athletes continue their run of outstanding performances. Notable among these is the completion of the DeBruce Center, the permanent home of James Naismith’s original “Rules of Basket Ball.” In addition, a $2 million renovation of the football locker room is now complete. The track surrounding the football field was removed in summer 2014, replaced with new artificial turf, bringing the turf to within 10 feet of the stands. A $1 million renovation of the Jayhawks’ Sports Medicine Facility has provided modernized rehabilitation, an x-ray room and treatment areas.
