The Jayhawks have 15 players returning form last year's squad, while also welcoming 15 newcomers. Two returning starters include Hallie Klanke, who led the Jayhawks in goals last season and Lexi Watts, a 2022 Big 12 All-Freshman Team selection, who was second on the team in points. Kansas aims for a strong start with first-year head coach Nate Lie pulling the strings, as the Jayhawks finished last season with a subpar 4-8-6 record, including a 1-7-2 record in Big 12 play. This will certainly be a challenge though, as South Dakota State closed last year with a Summit League-best 13-4-3 overall record, including a 4-1-3 record against the conference.
"We're excited to kick off the season against a talented South Dakota State team," first-year head coach Nate Lie said. "We have spent the last couple weeks acquainting ourselves with each other, learning how to play together and implementing a new system. It will be a tough test to start the season, but we're looking forward to facing a team in a different uniform.
The aforementioned Nate Lie explained how the upcoming soccer season is a clean slate from last season, and is looking to differentiate this Jayhawks team from the past few years.Jayhawks volleyball head coach Ray Bechard praised Kansas athletic director Travis Goff and deputy athletic director Nicole Corcoran, among others, for their efforts in creating hype around his team ahead of the upcoming season.
