Kansas tennis coach Todd Chapman needed six years, but his vision became a reality on Sunday in Lawrence.
Third-seeded KU defeated No. 1 seed Texas, 4-2, in the league’s championship final, which secured the Jayhawks’ first women’s tennis Big 12 championship.
“When I got to Kansas I knew this was a possibility and that is what I told Kansas Athletics in my interview,” Chapman said. “ ... (Sunday) was a special moment.”
KU, which hosted the weekend meet at the Jayhawk Tennis Center at Rock Chalk Park, previously defeated sixth-seeded TCU on Friday and second seed Oklahoma State on Saturday.
