Aug. 17, 2006

LAWRENCE, Kan. –

Sophomore forward Jen Orgas will not play for the University of Kansas women’s basketball team during the 2006-07 season due to personal reasons, head coach Bonnie Henrickson announced Thursday. Orgas will remain on campus and continue taking classes during the academic year.

“We respect Jen’s decision to sit out the upcoming season and she has our full support,” Henrickson said.

Orgas averaged 2.3 points and 0.5 rebounds in five games for Kansas in 2005-06. The Omaha, Neb., native posted a career-high six points in eight minutes against New Orleans on Dec. 3.
