For the second time in three years, the women's volleyball team at the University of Kansas has advanced to the round of 16.  The ninth-ranked Jayhawks won the Border War match against Missouri, 3-0, last (FRI) night at Horejsi Family Athletics Center.  The Jayhawks will face Loyola-Marymount on December 11th in San Diego. Meanwhile, Wichita State advanced to the second round by knocking off in-state rival Kansas State, 3-1.  The Shockers will play against Nebraska tonight (SAT) in Lincoln.  In football news, the Emporia State Hornets football team faces Northwest Missouri State University today (SAT) in the NCAA Division II quarterfinals at Northwest Missouri.  But the Hornets face a daunting task against the Bearcats, the top-ranked team in the nation.  Earlier this season, Northwest Missouri beat the Hornets, 44-10.
