5/06/06 Koehn vs. Wecker as professionals Laurie Koehn and her former roommate, Kendra Wecker, faced each other in Wichita tonight. Laurie reported that it was the first time she'd ever guarded Wecker... even in practice. Here are the stories, from the Kansas City Star and the Wichita Eagle.
4/30/06 Wecker has more knee troubles
4/18/06 Mechelle Voepel has the Cats ranked next year
4/09/06 2nd Annual State of Kansas Women's Basketball Showcase The college legends beat the high school seniors 125 - 69. The score could have been more lopsided. Generally speaking, there wasn't "in your face" defense. My friend Terry Dutton kept score in the bleachers. He had Laurie with 35, Wecker with 18 and Jessica McFarland with 24. The legends had the youngsters doubled at halftime, with a score of 59 - 28. Laurie only made nine of 16 threes, but it should be noted that three of those attempts were almost from half court, near the end of the game. In the pregame shootaround, I watched Laurie hit strings of seven, nine and 10 straight threes. It was great to see Wecker on the court again. She seems to have pretty good mobility, but she was avoiding her patented drives into the lane, which could get her hurt. We have to remember that she's hardly played in the past year. Cat fans, this kind of event makes one appreciate the professional production of a K-State game. 1) About 1/3 of the court lights were on for the pregame shoot around. 2) When the clock ticked down to 0:00, another nine minutes were added before the game began. 3) The PA announcer was the cheesiest goofball I have ever heard. 4) They played ESPN's CD, Jock Jams Vol. 1, throughout the game. 5) They never did turn on all the available court lights, so the game was played in "twilight." And finally... 6) Don't turn off the court lights for player introductions, OK? I understand that this was supposed to be a casual and fun event, but the production of it was not what we're used to. Regardless, it was great to see our friends McFarland, Wecker and Koehn, and they seemed to be having a wonderful time playing together again. Lehning, Dietz, Zanotti, Hamlin and Gipson came over to cheer for them. D. Scott Fritchen and Keener Tippen were there, so watch for professional coverage from GoPowercat.com and the Mercury. Here's a report from Keener. Also, here's a story, with quotes, from the Salina Journal.
