Celeste had a very solid day and qualified for day 2 with an 87 for her round of 18, which starts her out tomorrow in the top 10! Celeste will tee off at 10:20am tomorrow and everyone can follow the scoring for the tournament at highschoolgolfscores.com as she shoots for an individual medal at the State Tournament.

Attention Jayhawk seniors and interested former Jayhawk grads-

During these three days, any Kansas resident, regardless of age or income, can apply for free at any of our 7 public universities, 19 community colleges, 6 Technical colleges, and the 21 private member institutions of the Kansas Independent College Association. Eligible programs include general applications, certificate programs, associate degree programs, and bachelor degree programs. (Graduate programs or other mid-degree applications will not qualify.)
All institutions will still have application fee waivers available during the entire year for students who qualify for financial hardship. Those forms will not be required during the Apply Free window. (Remember- Kansas Community Colleges, PSU, Washburn U, and many of our private institutions never have general application fees.
