Kansas’ Coleby to transfer

Posted on May 15, 2017May 16, 2017

LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) – Kansas forward Dwight Coleby announced he will transfer Monday. As a graduate transfer, he will be eligible to compete next season.

The 6-foot-9 Coleby joined Kansas in 2015 after playing two years at Ole Miss. He played in 24 games last season, averaging just 1.7 points and 1.8 rebounds in nearly 6 minutes a game. He tied his career high with 12 points against Texas on Feb. 25.

“In talking with Coach (Self) about my future, I feel that this is what is best for my potential opportunities,” Coleby said. “I would like to thank the coaching staff for allowing me to come here.

“I’d like to thank my teammates for their support the past two years. I’d like to thank the fans for cheering me on and believing in me. KU is a part of my heart. It’s my alma mater and I am proud to have earned my degree from KU. I will always be a Jayhawk.”

Coleby said he feels the move could potentially help his post-college professional options.

TMP 8, Lyons/Chase 6

HAYS, Kan.-TMP trailed 3-0 after an inning and a half and things weren’t looking good. The Monarchs got one back in the third and fourth innings and trailed 3-2 going into the bottom of the fifth inning. That’s when TMP got things going on offense.

TMP loaded the bases on a walk by Cole Zimmerman. Eston Brown came to the plate and roped a base hit to left field that went through the left fielder’s legs and cleared the bases and gave TMP their first lead at 5-3. The Monarchs added three more runs in the sixth inning and they needed them. Lyons/Chase put three runs on the board in the top of the seventh but were shut down by Trenton Mayo on the mound after Tate Garcia hit the 45 pitch count.

The Monarchs improve to 11-8 on the season and will play Lakin at 4pm in the Regional Semi-finals on Wednesday.
