Jayhawks faced uniform woes at Big 12 tourney
KU players wore white home uniforms on consecutive days forcing student managers to wash them at a Kansas City laundromat the morning of the next game.

Donations support the David Fortin Memorial fund targeting a $111,000 X-ray room renovation following a Hearts of Gold Ball that netted $70,000 to $75,000.
