History

Kansas first officially fielded a varsity women's basketball team during the 1968-1969 season, though women's teams had been fielded as early as 1903. For thirty-one seasons (1973–2004) the women's team was coached by Marian Washington, who led the team to three Big Eight championships, eleven NCAA Tournament appearances and three AIAW Tournament appearances. The team's best post-season result was appearing in the Sweet Sixteen, which they have done four times, most recently in 2012.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    While the Republic has already acquired a history world-wide, America is still unsettled and unexplored. Like the English in New Holland, we live only on the shores of a continent even yet, and hardly know where the rivers come from which float our navy.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    The one duty we owe to history is to rewrite it.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

    It is true that this man was nothing but an elemental force in motion, directed and rendered more effective by extreme cunning and by a relentless tactical clairvoyance .... Hitler was history in its purest form.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)
