The Health and Sports Center hosted a prime matchup Feb. 18 as the UNK women’s basketball team in the coaches poll went up against the Central Missouri Jennies. UNK ranked No. 12 in the coaches poll and No. 14 in the media poll heading into the game. The Jennies fended off UNK in a tightly contested game 66-70.
UNK struggled in the second quarter, shooting 2-19 from the field.
“They switched up and went zone, and we struggled a little bit early on,” said head coach Carrie Eighmey. “We got stagnant and that’s on me first as a coach. We did not handle that zone well in the second quarter.”

ETTRICK Former Gov. Terry McAuliffe s campaign announced Wednesday that the Democratic gubernatorial hopeful has picked up the endorsement of student leaders from historically black colleges and universities in Virginia including 18 from Virginia State University.
A statement from the campaign said the students opted to back McAuliffe because of his record on criminal justice reform, his bold plans to ensure all Virginia students receive equitable access to a world-class education, and his vision to create a more equitable commonwealth. They were among a list of young Black professionals pledging their support.
