The Lady Jayhawks boast a rich and storied history, including four postseason trips to the NCAA Tournament Sweet Sixteen round, over 800 wins, 59 all-conference selections, and 67 academic all-conference selections. Nine Lady Jayhawks have continued their playing careers in the WNBA, the pinnacle of achievement for a women&#8217;s basketball player.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The University of Kansas is part of the Big 12 Conference. The women&#8217;s basketball team plays at the legendary Allen Fieldhouse on the campus of the University of Kansas in Lawrence. From the iconic waving of the wheat to the singing of the alma mater, you are not going to want to miss a minute of the action.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>We&#8217;ve Partnered With the Lady Jayhawks\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As a proud sponsor of Kansas women&#8217;s basketball, we are happy to be a part of this fine athletic tradition.
