For the women, 20 members from last season’s squad return, as seniors Stephany Johnson, Jylian Jaloma, and Kimoya Harriott along with juniors Veronica Rollins, Chelsea Richardson, Michelle Momo, and Viola Kleiser will provide guidance to the underclassmen throughout the season.

EVENT BREAKDOWN

MEN: (THROWS) After a stellar season in 2012, Ramon Nelson and Kris Leverette will look to do the same in 2012-13. At The Summit League Indoor Championships in the weight throws event, Nelson brought home the silver medal (58-00.25 - 17.68m), while Leverette came away with the bronze medal (57-04.25 - 17.48m). Nelson also set a new personal mark best mark of 58-10.25 (17.94m) in the weight throws event to place first at the UCM Classic for the second best performance in team history. Adding experience to the group is senior Max Carroll who thrived in the javelin event last season, setting a new school record (58.23m) at the Tulsa Duels. As for newcomer Blake Hocking, he will provide depth and versatility. (JUMPS) Top returning jumpers for the Blue & Gold are seniors Dontay Taylor and D.C. Okonta. In the indoor portion of 2012, Okonta’s season was highlighted with a silver medal (47-03.50 - 14.41m) in the triple jump at The Summit League Championships. The Liberty, Mo., native also recorded two of the top five performances in the triple jump in team history with marks of 49-

05.00 - 15.06m (second) and 48-10.00 - 14.88m (fifth). Due to injury, however, he was unable to compete during the outdoor season.

Kenney, meanwhile, took part in numerous track events last season and will look to build on his freshman campaign.

After competing sparingly in 2010-11, Taylor made a name for himself in 201112 by clocking the fastest time (6.94) for a Kangaroo in any 60-meter dash event during the indoor season in what was the fifth best performance in team history. Later, he recorded the best performance (23-04.00 - 7.11m) in the long jump for a Kangaroo during the indoor season at the Jayhawk Classic to place fourth.

(DISTANCE) This crop of studentathletes is led by senior Cosmas Ayabei. Throughout his time as a Kangaroo, Ayabei has set multiple school records and top performances in both the indoor and outdoor seasons. In 2011-12, he earned All-Summit League honors in both seasons to lead to the Kansas City distance runners.

Taylor’s outdoor season accolades included All-Summit League honors (Long Jump), qualifying for the NCAA Midwest Regional (Long Jump), and winning the long jump (7.44m) at the ESU Midweek Open. The rest of the jumpers for the Kangaroos will include newcomer’s freshmen Eric Carter and Zak Snow along with junior Jason Martin and senior Rich McCoy, who will also see time as sprinters. (SPRINTS/HURDLES) Entering the season, this group will feature plenty of new faces in freshmen Chris Taylor, Terrone Garner, Brady Adams, and Nelson Atkins along with a transfer from Kansas, sophomore Daniel Prioleau. Providing leadership to the newcomers will be seniors Forika McDougald II, Josh Butler, Johnathon Barnett, and sophomore Xavier Kenney. In what was their first season in a Kangaroo uniform after transferring from previous programs, Butler and Barnett made an immediate impact with their performances at The Summit League Indoor Championships. In the 200 meters, Butler clocked a 21.97 to win the bronze medal, while he and Barnett were part of the 4x400-meter relay squad that placed third (3:22.36). As for Barnett, he recorded two of the top best performances (36.32) in a 300 meters event during indoor season.

Along with Ayabei, senior Daniel Mann will look to finish his final season on a good note, while juniors Luke Abouhalkah, Alloch Burton, and Dirk Hudson will look to build upon their two seasons as members of the Kansas City track and field program. Freshmen, Kyle Bremer and Kolton Sheldon, meanwhile, will seek to make a solid impact in their debut season. WOMEN: (THROWS) This season, seniors Susan Brueggemann and Kimoya Harriott return for the Kangaroos to lead the women throwers. Brueggemann’s 2011-12 campaign was highlighted by recording the second best performance (43-03.25 - 13.19m) in the shot put in team history to place fifth at the Holiday Preview during the indoor season. Later in year, she recorded the second (13.12m), third (12.98m), and fifth (12.87m) furthest throws in the shot put in UMKC outdoor history. As for Harriott, her best indoor performance came at The Summit League Championships placing first in Flight 1 in the shot put with the furthest mark (4210.25 - 13.06m) by a Kangaroo during the season. In outdoor competition, the Jamaica native broke the UMKC school record (48.43m) in the javelin, while recording the second (46.32m), third (45.38m), and fifth (43.79m) furthest marks in school history on her way to earning a NCAA Midwest Regional qualifying bid.

The rest of the group features sophomore Dahila Dyson, who saw some action during the indoor season before suffering an injury, and freshmen Kelsey Benoit and Yasmin Musaddiq. (JUMPS) This group of student-athletes is led by senior Stephany Johnson. In her first season in a Blue & Gold uniform after spending time at Central Missouri, Johnson recorded four of the top five best indoor performances in team history in the triple jump with a top mark of 40-6.75 (11.74m) earning the silver medal at The Summit League Championships. Meanwhile, junior Jazmine Cooper’s season included numerous top finishes and team all-time performances during outdoor season by recording the third (19-00.50m) and fifth (18-10.37m) furthest marks in UMKC history in the long jump. As for the other juniors, Michelle Momo and Chelsea Richardson, they will look to build off their solid sophomore campaigns this season.

Williams’ stellar outdoor season accolades, meanwhile, included All-Summit League honors (400-meter hurdles & 4x100meter relay) and recording the second (14.15), third (14.20), and fifth (14.47) fastest times in UMKC history in the 100 Meter Hurdles. Also returning from that All-Summit League 4x100-meter relay squad are Cooper, Momo, and Richardson. As for freshmen Amani Borders, Sydia Darker, Chantel Bethune, Jamesha Howard, and Patricia Miller, they will look to make an immediate impact, while senior Autumn Scott will contribute on the track as well. (DISTANCE) Despite losing record setter Aubrey Frederking to graduation, the Kangaroo distance runners return a solid crop of athletes, led by seniors Jylian Jaloma and Sara Meiners, junior Angel Gannon, and sophomore Courtney Frerichs.

Sophomores Briana Carter and Lynette Cottingham saw plenty action as freshmen last season. A native of Warrensburg, Mo., Carter earned All-Summit League honors with the fifth furthest triple jump mark (11.78m) in team outdoor history, while also recording the second furthest mark (12.11m) in the same event in team history at the Arkansas Twilight to place second.

During the indoor season last year, Jaloma’s season was highlighted by setting two school records. In the 3,000 meters at The Summit League Championships, the Atchison, Kan. native placed her name in the UMKC record books by crossing the finish line at 10:01.81 to take home the bronze medal, while placing herself atop of UMKC’s record list in the 5,000 meters (17:18.29).

Cottingham career best performances came during the indoor season with marks of 17-00.00 (5.18m) in the long jump and 37-06.75 (11.45m) in the triple jump.

After not competing in the indoor season in 2011-12, Meiners’ outdoor season included a school record breaking performance (35:52.69) in the 10,000 meters, while Angel Gannon recorded the second (2:16.80) and third (2:17.38) best indoor performances in an 800 meters event. She was also part of a distance medley group that set a school record (12:06.63). During the outdoor season, she recorded the second (2:15.62) and fourth (2:16.07) fastest 800 meter times in UMKC history.

(SPRINTS/HURDLES) Heading into the season, this group is the deepest amongst the women with 14 designated athletes scheduled to see time. Top returnees include senior Shanelle Williams and junior Veronica Rollins, along with Johnson, Momo, Richardson, Carter, and Cooper. Last season as part of a 4x400-meter relay squad during indoor season, Carter crossed the finish line at 3:45.43 to set a new school record and earn the bronze medal at The Summit League Championships.

Frerichs’ freshman campaign, meanwhile, will be a tough act to follow. During the indoor season, the Nixa, Mo. native notched the second fastest time (10:02.06) in team history in the 3,000 meters event, along with the fourth (17:33.79) fastest time in team history in a 5,000 meters event.

In the outdoor portion, she owned the 3,000-meter steeplechase by setting a school record (10:34.48) at the MU Relays to finish first, along with the second (10:42.23) and third (10:55.29) fastest times in team history. Her successful freshman season continued when she earned a spot on Team USA to compete at the IAAF World Junior Championships in Barcelona, Spain, after finishing second (10:35.23) in the 3,000 Meter Steeplechase at the US Junior Outdoor Track & Field Championships. Looking to build off a solid sophomore campaign as well is Siara Stahl, who was also part of that school indoor record setting distance medley group. The Smithville, Mo. native also recorded the fifth best indoor performance (5:06.66) in a mile event in UMKC history. Rounding out the rest of the distance for this season are juniors Meg Doss and Taylor Spencer, along with freshman Florence Osei.

Head Coach • Kansas (2003) • Sixth Season Shameika McField was named the head coach for the UMKC track and field/cross country programs on March 4, 2008. Before her appointment, McField served as the interim head coach for the Kangaroos from January to March 2008. McField joined the athletics department in September 2007 as an academic advisor. During the 2012 season, McField guided the Kangaroos to a fifth place finish by the women and a sixth place finish by the men at The Summit League Indoor Championships, while guided each squad to a seventh place finish at the outdoor championships. In all, 22 ‘Roos were named to the All-Summit League Team, while Cosmas Ayabei, Kimoya Harriott, Courtney Frerichs and Dontay Taylor each qualified for the NCAA West Regionals during the outdoor season. Also, Courtney Frerichs qualified for the IAAF World Junior Championships in Barcelona, Spain, after finishing second in the 3,000 Meter Steeplechase at the US Junior Outdoor Track & Field Championships. Cross country wise, the program made strides as the men placed fourth in The Summit League Championships, their best finish since 1999. Also, Cosmas Ayabei became the first UMKC runner to compete in the NCAA Championships. On the women’s side, they finished third in the league championships and 19th in the NCAA Midwest Regionals, both the highest in school history. In 2011, McField led the ‘Roos to a fifth place finish on the men’s side in both indoor and outdoor, while guiing the women to a sixth place finish during the indoor season and a fifth place finish during the outdoor campaign. At the 2011 Summit League Indoor Championships, Cosmas Ayabei was named teh Track MVP after winning gold in the 5,000 meter and 3,000 meter and silver as part of the distance medley relay team. During the outdoor season, McField helped D.C. Okonta, Ayabei, Oscar Emegano and Kimoya Harriott each reach the NCAA West Regionals. McField coached 11 all-Summit League selections during the 2010 indoor season, with Anthony Boyer claiming the gold medal in the 110-meter hurdles. Boyer was also recognized as The Summit League Championship Track MVP, the February Athlete of the Month and the Co-Track Athlete of the Year. McField had five athletes earn medals at the League Indoor Championships and coached the men to a fourth place finish. She had 10 athletes record first place finishes during the indoor season and watched Larry Hill break UMKC school records in the 600-yard run and 800-meter run, and Cosmas Ayabei break the 3,000-meter run. McField had 22 student-athletes land on the UMKC top-five performance list. Following the 2010 outdoor season, McField coached Boyer to a NCAA Preliminary Round appearance the 400-meter hurdles, while also qualifying for the 110-meter hurdles. Boyer was The Summit League Outdoor Champion in the 110-meter and 400-meter hurdles and was named the League Championship MVP. The Kangaroos finished with seven medals at the League Outdoor Championships and the men finished fifth, scoring 94 points. McField had six student-athletes receive all-league recognition and had four school records broken during the outdoor season. Boyer broke the 400-meter hurdle record, Max Carroll broke the record in the javelin, Aubrey Frederking posted a new record in the 1,500-meter run and Susan Brueggemann broke the UMKC school record in the shot put. The Kangaroos had nine first place finishes during the outdoor season and had 13 student-athletes land on the UMKC all-time top-five performance list. In the 2009 cross country season, McField saw Cosmas Ayabei run his way to a third place finish at the Summit League Cross Country Championship.

Frerichs Competes in IAAF World Junior Championships in Barcelona After just one year as a Kangaroo, UMKC’s Courtney Frerichs already set a UMKC school record, qualified for the 2012 NCAA West Regional, been named a Distinguished Scholar on The Summit League Fall and Winter/Spring Academic All-League Teams and been named The Summit League Female Track & Field Athlete of the Week on Mar. 27. Her stellar freshman season continued when she traveled to Barcelona, Spain, for the IAAF World Junior Championships as part of Team USA. Frerichs, a Nixa, Mo., native, earned her spot on the team after finishing second in the 3,000 Meter Steeplechase at the US Junior Outdoor Track & Field Championships in Bloomington, Ind., at the Robert C. Haugh Track & Field Complex with a personal best time of 10:35.23 on June 15, beating out runners from schools including Illinois, Penn State, Arkansas, UCLA and Yale. “I still remember smiling during the last 100 meters, knowing I had earned my spot for the world championships,” Frerichs said after her qualifying run. “I knew I had a good chance at qualifying if I had a good race, but I never imagined getting this opportunity.” “We were excited about Courtney’s opportunity to compete for the USA Junior team,” UMKC head coach Shameika McField said. “Her hard work is obvious, doing so well at an event that is so new for her is talent, while her dedication and tenacity just spells heart. Courtney is an all-around phenomenal student-athlete. It was exciting to watch her compete for the Roos her first year, now it will be just as exciting to watch her create history while competing for Team USA. This was more than an honor for her and our programs.” Frerichs earned her spot in the US Championship thanks to a UMKC record mark of 10:34.48 at the Mt. SAC Relays on Apr. 19, just her second time in the event as a ‘Roo. Due to a foot injury though, the UMKC freshman was only able to compete once more in the steeplechase, putting her training behind that of her competitors. “I was a little worried when I started training again after my foot injury that I wouldn’t get back into the shape I had been in when I ran my seed time, but I had some really good workouts the week before the race,” Frerichs said. “That definitely helped

give me some confidence that I was ready to run a good race.” Prior to the race, Frerichs and UMKC assistant coach James Butler put together a plan that would help send her to Barcelona. “Coach Butler discussed with me before the race that I should try to break the race into three parts,” Frerichs said. “The plan was for me to run the first kilometer fairly relaxed, keep second place within reach on the second kilometer and then try to get into second in order to qualify on the last kilometer. The race went exactly how Coach Butler thought it would and the plan worked really well.” “We had a specific race plan going into the race and Courtney executed it perfectly,” Butler said. “To be able to compete against the top junior athletes in the nation and to finish second is a great accomplishment for Courtney and for UMKC. Representing your country in an international competition is the dream of any track & field athlete and it is very exciting to see Courtney achieve what she has in such a short period of time” Running in the second of two heats, Frerichs went on to finish 16th in the 3,000 Meter Steeplechase at IAAF World Junior Championships with a time of 10:35.24, just one hundredth of a second off her personal best. Her time placed her eighth in her heat, less than seven seconds behind the final qualifying time. Leading the way in the event was Kenya’s Daisy Jepkemei with a time of 9:56.33, while Frerich’s Team USA teammate Brianna Nerud finished the preliminaries fifth overall with a time of 10:08.15 to advance to the final round. “This trip was definitely an amazing experience that I will always remember,” said Frerichs. “It was everything I imagined it would be and more.” “It was so awesome being able to represent the country and I only hope I will be able to do it again some day,” added Frerichs. “I want to thank all my coaches, teammates, family, and friends for helping out this year because I know I couldn’t have done without all of them.”

The Evolution of the Kangaroo

hen choosing a mascot, the discussion usually starts with three main categories - predatory animals, historical or regional figures, or humans that represent power and strength - and ends with a collection of the usual suspects. Thanks to Walt Disney, The Kansas City Star and the Kansas City Zoo, Kansas City has a very unique mascot, but how exactly does the Kangaroo fit? As it turns out, quite well. In 1936, the issue of a mascot was first brought up by the editors of The University the campus newspaper for Kansas City University. Although there were no organized intercollegiate athletics teams at the time, the newspaper staff felt that KCU’s debate team - and more importantly the school itself - deserved a unique identity. During that same year, the Kansas City Zoo purchased a pair of baby Kangaroos, and The Kansas City Star lit the fire with an article titled “Kangaroo May Go To KCU ... Student Editors Believe University Should Have A Symbol.” Others on campus were not as enthusiastic. The editors of The Crataegus - the University’s yearbook - thought that a Kangaroo was not an appropriate symbol for KCU. A proposed feature page in the 1936-37 yearbook for the Kangaroo emblem was deleted, sparking a tremendous amount of debate. As the debate wore on, interest from the campus community began to wane. It looked as if KCU would not adopt a mascot after all. But in 1937, two events would combine to indelibly link the Kangaroo with the University and give the mascot a name.

The first incarnation of Kasey Kangaroo was inked by Marceline, Mo., native Walt Disney, and featured the KCU mascot alongside a somewhat more famous rodent.

During the student government elections in the spring semester, the CO-OP Party adopted the Kangaroo as its official mascot, naming him Kasey. With a landslide victory in April behind the slogan “Kasey fits KC”, the first part of the foundation was laid. During the same month the first issue of KCU’s humor magazine - The Kangaroo - was published, with a kangaroo gracing the cover. Six months later, a kangaroo made another appearance on the cover of The Kangaroo, and although it wasn’t a solo appearance, it put a quick end to the debate over whether a kangaroo was an appropriate mascot for KCU. Missouri native and famed cartoonist Walt Disney provided the artwork for the cover illustration, which featured Mickey Mouse shaking hands with Kasey Kangaroo. In a matter of a few years, The Kangaroo thrived while The Crataegus floundered, with the latter eventually folding. The Kangaroo became the University’s yearbook and the Kangaroo became the official mascot of Kansas City University. Kasey has undergone several changes over the years, with the most recent metamorphosis led by Kansas City Director of Athletics Tim Hall. With the help of local advertising agency Bernstein-Rein, Kansas City developed a set of new athletics marks in the spring of 2008. After a community vote, the new Kangaroo logo was unveiled in May. With its aggressive snarl, the new Kangaroo capitalizes on Kansas City’s mission to be an outstanding urban university while keeping mindful of the traditions established in 1937.

Director of Athletics Tim Hall

TIM HALL

Director of Athletics

Tim Hall was named the Kansas City Director of Athletics on Feb. 14, 2007. In this role, he serves as a member of the Chancellor’s executive cabinet, and is responsible for leading the strategic direction in growing the university’s intercollegiate athletics program. Since Hall accepted the post in 2007, Kansas City has seen competitive improvement every year. Kansas City has won Summit League Championships in men’s soccer, men’s golf, men’s tennis and softball. Last academic year, all four of those Kansas City sports were named favorites to win the Summit League, with three others picked in the top three. The women’s basketball team posted its first 20-win season since 1991-92 and its second ever trip to the Summit League Tournament Championship game. Last fall, the women’s soccer team advanced to the conference tournament for the first time in school history, while setting a school record for wins. Women’s tennis also set a record for wins last year, and advanced to its first ever Summit League Tournament Final appearance the year before. Kansas City’s athletics department staffing has grown during Hall’s tenure as part of an effort to catch up to other Summit League schools. Those additions have made Kansas City more competitive in recruiting student-athletes, while providing fundraising support for many facility improvements and agreements in each sport. The successes were reinforced by the NCAA in 2009, as Kansas City Athletics received full NCAA certification without condition. The certification showed that the University is operating its athletics program in substantial conformity with operating principles adopted by the NCAA Division I membership and is valid for the next 10 years. Hall led the ‘Roos to their most successful year since 2000 in 2008-09 and the ‘Roos continued excelling in 2009-10. Kansas City claimed a pair of Summit League titles in men’s soccer and men’s tennis, while also earning the runnerup nod in both men’s and women’s golf, which led to a record 2009 finish in the annual Learfield Sports Directors’ Cup. During the 2010 campaign, the men’s tennis team won The Summit League regular season title and the men’s golf program was the league runner-up. This helped the men’s teams finish fourth in the Dr. William Steinbrecher Men’s All Sports Award standings, the best showing since 2001-02. Overall, the ‘Roos moved up to sixth place in the Commissioner’s Cup standings, which was the highest finish since 2006-07. In the classroom, the department posted a grade point average of better than 3.20 this past year. It had a 3.10 cumulative grade point in the spring 2010 semester and eight programs finished with at least a 3.0 GPA. Additionally, Kansas City finished with a 958.7 APR average and the volleyball team received the NCAA public recognition award. Internally, Hall has been hard at work to align the department with peer institutions and the NCAA. He restructured the rules compliance office to be more in line with NCAA rules and the Student-Athlete Support Services Office to better assist and prepare Kangaroo studentathletes. He also continues to work with new Kansas City Chancellor Leo Morton to craft the athletics’ strategic plan in concert with the University’s new strategic goals. From a fund raising standpoint, Kangaroo Athletics have never been better. In 2008, Kansas City received a $5 million pledge from the Stanley H. Durwood Foundation, the largest gift in Athletics’ and the fourth-largest gift in University history. The resulting Stanley H. Durwood Soccer Stadium and Recreational Field opened in August 2009 and is among the premier soccer facilities in the Midwest region. Additional facility improvements have included revamped locker rooms and lounges for men’s and women’s basketball and volleyball and the retro-fitting of Old Swinney Gymnasium, which provides the basketball and volleyball programs with a first-class practice facility. The project was funded through $500,000 of private support. Hall also was instrumental in the renovation of the Swinney Recreation Center with the installation of new seatback bleachers and new scoreboards, which enhances the venue for the men’s and women’s basketball and volleyball programs. The renovation allows the men’s basketball squad to move its games back on campus full-time for the 2010-11 season. Hall is also in the midst of a partnership with the Kansas City Parks Department to build a sports complex that will house both indoor and outdoor tennis courts, a 200-meter indoor track and a softball field. On an annual basis, the Kangaroo Athletics Scholarship Fund, which was rebranded prior to the 2007-08 school year, has posted three straight years of 50 percent growth, while donor participation is up over 200 percent. He also increased the department’s total sponsorships and gift-in-kind assistance to over $1.5 million and cash and trade sponsorships have increased 265 percent since 2008. Additionally, Hall has increased Kansas City’s external support by 45 percent over fiscal year 2009 from $1.6 to $2.4 million. Hall also has also reconnected with over 200 former ‘Roos with the former student-athlete association. In the community, Hall has been active in an effort to get more community leaders involved in the Athletics Department. Hall restructured the Athletics Foundation Board in 2009 by adding representatives from a number of Kansas City-based businesses such as Cerner, Kansas City Southern Railways, Lathrop Gage LLC, and Mark One Electric. New partnerships have come quickly to Kangaroo Athletics, including television (Niles Media Group) and radio (810 WHB) agreements that ensure a continued presence within the Kansas City region. Renowned local advertising firm Bernstein-Rein produced a redesigned athletics logo and graphics set, while additional contractual agreements have also been signed with adidas, Truman Medical Centers, Pepsi, T-Mobile and JumpTV to better serve the department’s student-athletes. Hall continues to bring leadership to Kansas City and The Summit League. In addition to his role on the Chancellor’s Executive Cabinet, Hall serves on The Summit League Joint Council leadership committee and sits on the league’s men’s basketball scheduling committee and the men’s and women’s soccer coaches committees. Additionally, Hall is also in the second of a three-year term on the NACDA Division 1-AAA Executive Committee and serves on the NCAA volleyball rules committee. Hall came to Kansas City after serving as the Associate Athletics Director for Development at Kent State University in Kent, Ohio, from 2003-07. While at KSU, he was a member of the athletics senior administrative staff, working in all phases of departmental management including game and personnel contracts, scheduling, budget, policy and strategic planning. In this role, Hall created and implemented a comprehensive restructuring of the athletic advancement unit, resulting in the creation of the Office of Athletic Advancement. He increased fundraising by more than 33 percent, helped secure the largest gift to date in the history of KSU athletics, a $1.53 million gift for the baseball stadium renovation, and raised more than $16.1 million. Prior to moving back to Ohio, Hall worked at Eastern Kentucky University from 2000-03. Hall began work as the collegiate Director for Development in 2000 before being promoted to the Director of Major Gifts and Special Projects in 2001. In this capacity, he raised over $4.6 million for the university, including $1.3 million for athletics. Hall also served as the Assistant Director of Development at Saint Xavier University in Chicago from September 1999 through October 2000. At Saint Xavier, Hall managed fundraising efforts for a $13 million Athletic and Convention Center. He also managed the President’s Club, and developed and implemented the Cougar Club, an athletics affinity group. Before moving to Chicago, Hall worked at Youngstown State University as an Assistant Director of Athletic Development from 1997-99. In this role, he helped the university complete its successful $26 million capital campaign. Hall also began his collegiate career at YSU, serving in the school’s athletic marketing and promotions office. Hall earned his bachelor’s degree in sports administration from the University of Toledo in 1994. He then received his master’s degree in sports administration from Kent State University in 1998. Hall and his wife, Beth, have four children, Aidan, Aislin, Donovan and Landon, and they reside in Kansas City, Mo.

he Kangaroo Athletics ScholarT ship Fund (KASF) supports the student-athletes of Kansas

City through the offsetting of expenses such as scholarships, travel, recruiting, and equipment. As costs continue to rise, support for our student-athletes through the KASF becomes more crucial as we continue to build an elite Summit League athletics department. For the 2012-13 academic year, student-athlete scholarship expenses are expected to include: • Tuition (out-of-state): $17,692 • Room and Board: $10,130 • Tuition (in-state): $6,876 • Books and Fees: $1,612

Cross Country/Track & Field

In addition, over the past year it has become extremely difficult for budgets to keep pace with rising travel and food costs. While athletics must be vigilant in cost containment, we must continue to provide for the best possible student-athlete experience. That is where the KASF donors can play such a tremendous role.

The $500,000 renovation plan calls for new basketball/volleyball court flooring and basketball standards and volleyball nets to be installed in the existing facility. The current skylights in the building will also be altered, which will allow for modified lighting to be put into place. The entire Old Swinney interior will be updated and scoreboards will be installed.
