Spring Outlook Following a strong fall season in which the Kansas women’s golf team won the Marilynn Smith Invitational and tied for second at the Chip-N Club Invitational in Lincoln, Neb., the Jayhawks started their spring season strong with a second place finish at the Claud Jacobs Challenge in Victoria, Texas and took fifth at the Louisville Cards Challenge in Weston, Florida.

Sophomore Thanuttra Boonraksasat hits her tee shot at the Marilynn Smith Invitational last season.

Redshirt freshman Thanuttra Boonraksasat led the Jayhawks in stroke average last season finishing with a 75.75, while senior Katy Nugent followed close behind with a 76.03. KU will rely on the duo this season who both had great starts to their Jayhawk careers. Nugent recorded her lowest round of the season at the Marilynn Smith Invitational shooting a 69 in the second round and finishing second overall. Boonraksasat shot a career-best 70 at Price’s “Give ‘Em Five” in Las Cruces, N.M. to finish the tournament in 34th place.

Another strong player for the Jayhawks is sophomore Meghan Potee. Potee recorded the lowest round by a freshman in school history shooting a 69 in the second round at Price’s “Give ‘Em Five” Intercollegiate. Potee was also the top finisher at the Baylor Spring Invitational with her three-round scores of 75-76-77 -- 228 and finishing 15th.

The Jayhawks will start their fall season out in Tulsa, Okla. at the Dale McNamara Invitational Sept. 12-14. After a week break, KU will head to Manhattan where the Marilynn Smith Invitational will take place Sept. 26-27.

Kansas will then journey over to Columbia, Mo. for the Johnie Imes Tournament Oct. 3-4 where they finished eighth place last season.

After almost two weeks of rest, the Jayhawks will travel to Norman, Okla. for the Suzie Maxwell Invitational Oct. 16-18 and will then finish out their fall season in Charleston, S.C. at the Edwin Watts/Palmetto Intercollegiate Oct. 23-24.

The spring season will be filled with warm weather for the Jayhawks as they travel to Florida three times and Arizona twice. KU will compete in a couple of different tournaments such as the UCF Challenge Feb. 12-14, Rio Verde Collegiate Invitational Mar. 9-11 and the Knights and Pirates Invitational Apr. 9-10. Head coach Erin O’Neil thinks facing different competition will be good for the Jayhawks.

“Quote” The regular season will conclude in familiar territory for KU as they will host the Big 12 Conference Championship at Lawrence Country Club Apr. 27-29. The last time KU hosted the Big 12 Championship was in 1997 at Alvamar Golf Club with the Jayhawks finishing seventh.

Senior Katy Nugent chips up to the green at the Marilynn Smith Invitational on her way to a second place finish with a 54-total 220.

In her first season as head coach, O'Neil led the Jayhawks to a first-place finish at the Marilynn Smith Sunflower Invitational, the program's first team title since 2000. Coach O'Neil's teams have also notched first-place finishes at the 2010 Marilynn Smith Sunflower Invitational, 2009 Rio Verde Collegiate Invitational, 2006 Mountain View Collegiate and the 2006 and 2007 Marilynn Smith Sunflower Invitationals.

Fall 2011 Review Kansas came out swinging in the 2010-2011 season on and off the course. The Jayhawks won the Marilynn Smith Invitational, placed in the top 10 as a team in all but two tournaments and placed in the top five of the first seven tournaments.

Sophomore Meghan Potee lines up a putt at the Marilynn Smith Invitational.

Seniors Meghna Bal, Grace Thiry and Jennifer Clark were all name to the Academic All-Big 12 first team for the third straight season while redshirt freshmanThanuttra Boonraksasat was named to the second team.

Kansas has produced at least three first-team selections in each of the last four seasons and at least two players on first-team in each of the last nine years.

To keep the academic momentum going, the Jayhawks had four women selected to the National Golf Coaches Association (NGCA) All-America Scholar list. Meghna Bal and Jennifer Clark were selected for the second time while Grace Thiry and Junior Katy Nugent were first time selections.

Grace Thiry claimed medalist honors and Katy Nugent finished one behind as the duo led Kansas to the team title at the marilynn Smith Invitational. The Jayhawks hosted the Marilynn Smith Invitational Sept. 27 and 28 and marked the first time the Jayhawks won a team title since claiming the Duramed Collegiate in 2009. Thiry’s individual championship was the first by a Jayhawk since that same tournament when Meghan Gockel claimed medalist honors.

Kansas kept the season consistent with their lineup, taking the same five women to seven of the 11 tournaments. Bal, Boonraksasat, Nugent and Thiry participated in all 11 tournaments and freshman Meghan Potee played in 10 of the 11 tournaments, two of them as an individual.

Playing as an individual at the Marilynn Smith Invitational, Senior Jennifer Clark finished tied for 29th after a final round 77. Clark graduated with a degree in graphic design last May.

Home Course Alvamar Golf Club

Alvamar opened for play on May 15, 1968, and included two original nines, Jayhawk and Quail Creek. The two courses were joined by the Hidden Valley nine in 1973 and The Sunflower in 1978. In 1982, the Hidden Valley and Sunflower nines were consolidated into Alvamar Country Club.

Alvamar was named by developer Bob Billings from the contraction of his parents’ names, Alva and Margaretta Billings of Russell, Kan. The Alvamar Golf and Country Club encompass over 3,000 acres of West Lawrence. The 36 holes at Alvamar were designed by Mel Anderson and Bob Dunning and include a public and private clubhouse, driving range and three practice greens. The two courses at Alvamar were the first in the United States to utilize zoysia grass for its fairways and tees. The course currently uses cohansey bent green on both surfaces.

In 1991, Alvamar Country Club hosted the Kansas Amateur.

Alvamar Golf Club annually hosts the Kansas Open and has been the site of the United States Golf Association’s Women’s Public Links tournament. It was the site of the Big Eight Conference Men’s Championship for eight consecutive years. In 1990, the Big Eight Conference Women’s Championship was held at Alvamar and was won by the Jayhawks. Alvamar Golf Club hosted the inaugural Big 12 Women’s Championship in 1997 and is the site of the KU men’s Kansas Invitational and women’s Marilynn Smith Sunflower Invitational.

Having been honored as one of the “best maintained golf courses in the United States” by Grounds Maintenance Magazine, Alvamar continues to improve its attractive golf venue. David Dunn serves as head professional at Alvamar Country Club.

Alvamar Country Club is considered one of the finest golf courses in the state.

Alvamar’s reputation is one of the reasons KU attracts some of the top golfers in the country.

The Knapheide Family Practice Facility at Alvamar

In the fall of 2009, construction was completed on the newest addition to the Kansas golf program's state-of-the-art facilities: the Knapheide Family Practice Facility.

The new practice facility consists of four climate-controlled hitting bays with cutting-edge swing techonology. There are three smaller bays in addition to one larger bay, which is equipped with a V1 video swing analysis system and a Trackman radar launch monitoring system.

"We are incredibly excited about our new hitting facility," said head coach Erin O'Neil. "It will allow us to hit shots and work on our putting under realistic conditions during January and February."

Armed with this valuable new facility, the KU golf team looks to have a productive winter in preparation for the spring season and beyond.

"It will have a positive impact on our players’ confidence levels, especially for the first couple of tournaments in the spring," said O'Neil.

KU Traditions THE ROCK CHALK CHANT The Rock Chalk Chant has been the battle cry of KU fans for more than 90 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. Bailey wanted a cheer for his Science Club. Returning from a convention in Wichita, Bailey and some associates patterned a yell after the rhythmic cadence of their train rolling along the tracks. On May 21, 1886, Bailey submitted the cheer to his club.

Before the University adopted the cheer in 1897, it consisted of “Rah, Rah, Jayhawk, KU” being repeated three times. An English professor soon suggested that “Rock Chalk” be substituted for “Rah, Rah” because it rhymed with Jayhawk. “Rock Chalk” was also symbolic of the chalky limestone formations found on Mount Oread. Teddy Roosevelt once said the Rock Chalk chant was the best he had ever heard.

THE FIGHT SONG

George “Dumpy” Bowles, a student with the class of 1912, longed to make a great contribution to the KU spirit, but wasn’t athletic enough to do historic deeds on the athletic field. He turned to music and produced some outstanding student musical shows.

A song in one of these shows was “I’m a Jayhawk.” Written in 1912, it was dormant until 1920 when a growth in school spirit brought out “I’m a Jayhawk” once more. The song contributed to the raising of funds to build both the KU football stadium and student union as World War I memorials. The 1926 glee club made it known nationally.

During homecoming week in 2010, the KU Alumni Association held a public contest to reword portions of the song because of the impending departure of Nebraska and Colorado from the Big 12 Conference. Matt Schoenfield of Countryside, Kan., won the contest. The fight song now mentions all 10 of the current Big 12 schools in its lyrics.

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.”

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. 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.

KU Traditions THE NICKNAME

During the Civil War a regiment raised

by Kansas Governor Charles Robinson called itself the “Independent Mounted Jayhawks” (later officially the First Kansas Calvary and then the Seventh Kansas Regiment). By the end of the Civil War the word Jayhawk was associated with the spirit of camaraderie and the courageous fighting qualities that characterized efforts to keep Kansas a free state.

By 1886, the University of Kansas had adopted the mythical bird as part of the KU yell. When the university’s football team first took the field in 1890, it seemed only natural that they should be called Jayhawkers. Few colleges and universities have such a meaningful symbol, one so deeply associated with the struggles of the people who founded them.

THE SCHOOL COLORS

The University of Kansas colors, crimson and blue, used since the early 1890s, are not the colors originally adopted by the university Board of Regents in the 1860s. The Regents had decided to adopt the Michigan colors, maize and sky blue.

Maize and blue were used at early oratorical meets, and they may have been used when Kansas competed in rowing in the middle 1880s. However, when football came upon the scene in 1890, the student backers wanted to use Harvard crimson as the athletic color in honor of Col. John J. McCook, a Harvard man who had given money to KU for an athletic field. The field ran east and west in the proximity of where the north bowl of Memorial Stadium currently sits on the Kansas campus. Until that time, Kansas football games were played at Central Park on Massachusetts Street in downtown Lawrence.

Some Yale men were on the faculty, and they demanded the Yale blue be included. The rooters rallied forth to allow crimson and blue on their team.

No one fought to retain the original colors, and the vivid deeper tone crimson and blue became generally used. Finally, in May 1896, the KU Athletic Board adopted crimson and blue as the official team colors for the university.

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 southeast of Memorial Stadium and at the bottom of Campanile Hill, adds to the beauty of the Kansas campus.

On Commencement Day, KU Grads make the walk down Campanile Hill in a procession line before entering Memorial Stadium for graduation.

Sheahon Zenger Director of Athletics Dr. Sheahon (SHAY-un) Zenger is a coach at heart. But when KU Chancellor Bernadette GrayLittle introduced the Hays, Kan., native as KU’s Athletics Director January 3, 2011, he promised not to call any plays for the coaches. That doesn’t mean, though, that he won’t be right there with them – and their student-athletes – every step of the way. For it’s his genuine care for coaches and student-athletes that has stamped his career in intercollegiate athletics.

Zenger comes 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. The Redbirds won a conference-leading seven league titles during the 2009-10 season and captured their second Valley All-Sports Trophy in three years.

ISU’s Weisbecker Scholarship Fund membership grew 65 percent during his tenure, and capital projects boomed. The Illinois State Baseball Stadium at Duffy Bass Field was officially dedicated in May 2009 to culminate the completion of that $3.5 million project. In addition, funding for the Redbird Arena locker room improvements has also been secured.

With experience as an educator, coach, fundraiser and administrator, Zenger brought a plan to Illinois State, and with the help of the head coaches and administrative staff, personalized that strategic plan for Redbird Athletics. As a result, the athletics department saw record-high gradepoint averages (GPA) in each of the last four years, including a best-ever department-wide 3.13 GPA in fall 2009. Redbird student-athletes now regularly carry a GPA of 3.0 or better. ISU student-athletes have also contributed more than 2,000 hours of community service in each of the last five years, including 3,500 hours during the 2009-10 athletic season.

In addition to Valley All-Sports titles in 2008 and 2010, in his last three years at ISU Zenger led the department to 16 top-five finishes in its 17 Valley sports – the highest percentage of top-five finishers in league history.

Zenger secured a five-year apparel contract for Redbird Athletics, and significantly increased the marketing of the program in the Central Illinois region, most notably with a campaign centered on the award-winning marketing campaign “Spread the Red.” He also witnessed record-setting attendance figures in football, men’s basketball and women’s basketball, while seeing 17 Redbird teams advance to postseason play.

At the beginning, Zenger wasn’t headed toward a career in administration. He was nine years old when he told his father he wanted to be a coach, and it didn’t take long for that dream to materialize. After playing football at Fort Hays State and Mid-American Nazarene College, he finished his undergraduate degree at Kansas State. Even before he received his bachelor’s degree in English and secondary education in 1988, Zenger was assisting the football coaches at Manhattan (Kan.) High School. His first college football coaching job came at Drake University right after graduation.

In 1989, at age 23, Zenger joined Bill Snyder’s staff at Kansas State as one of the nation’s youngest full-time football staff members; he served in key roles as assistant recruiting coordinator and director of football operations. Zenger completed his master’s degree in journalism and mass communication in 1992 while helping Snyder bring Wildcat football to unprecedented success.

It became evident, though, that more than coaching was in store for Zenger. He sought advice from then-KU Chancellor Gene Budig, who convinced him to pursue a Ph.D. at KU. As he completed his Ph.D. in educational policy and leadership (1996), Zenger contributed communications and special projects support to the office of the executive vice-chancellor, Ed Meyen, and wrote the professional life history of then-chancellor Del Shankel, while strengthening his understanding of university leadership at the highest levels.

While focusing his attention on academics, he managed to stay involved in the world of intercollegiate athletics, and specifically football. ‘Involved’ may be an understatement. In 1993 Zenger and a friend founded American Football Quarterly, a magazine for coaches. Zenger served as publisher – and then editor – until 1995, when he sold his share of the by-then-thriving magazine.

Still, coaching stayed in his blood. After earning his doctorate, Zenger in 1996 signed on as the recruiting coordinator for the brand-new NCAA Division I football program at the University of South Florida. A year later he joined the University of Wyoming football staff as recruiting coordinator and within two years rose to assistant head coach, a position he still considers one of the crowning achievements of his career.

Zenger stayed at Wyoming through the 2000 season before returning to Kansas State. He spent a year in the KSU College of Business, raising more than $2 million and restructuring its development program with research and planning. He rejoined KSU Athletics in 2001 as assistant athletics director for major gifts, helping KSU initiate important development strategies. In 2002 he was appointed KSU’s associate athletics director for development, a position he held until 2005, when he was named Athletics Director at Illinois State.

A published author and researcher, Zenger served for three years on the NCAA Division I Committee on Student-Athlete Reinstatement. He also served on two NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) Division committees, and was a member of the Executive Committee of NACDA’s Division I FCS Athletic Directors Association.

He is also a member of many professional and university organizations, including the National Association of Collegiate Directors of Athletics (NACDA), the Association for the Study of Higher Education and the American Football Coaches Association.

Zenger is married to the former Pam McAnarney. The couple has three children: Luke (14), Abby (12) and Jake (10).

The Big 12 led all conferences with four teams ranked in the Top 10 in the final national polls a season ago. In addition, an all-time high eight league players earned consensus All-America recognition in 2007, more than any other conference.

In basketball, nine men’s and women’s teams have advanced to their respective Final Fours in the past seven seasons as the Big 12 continues its place among the elite intercollegiate athletic conferences.

In its history, the conference can boast of over 300 academic honorees, averaging more than 25 each season.

The Big 12 can boast of other stories that combine on and off the field success.

She was diagnosed with a cancerous tumor in 2007, but rebounded to win All-America honors at the 2008 NCAA Indoor Track & Field Championships.
