A few days ago, Kansas embarked on a journey to Italy for four games, sightseeing, and some of the best food in the world. It is hard to believe the trip is in its final stretch.

AUGUST 1


After a nine-hour flight from Chicago, the team arrived in Rome.



Kansas also welcomed Sviatloslav Mykhailiuk back to the team after the senior wing led all scorers at the 2017 U20 European Championship for Ukraine.

Much like the day before, the entire team spent the entire morning exploring Rome, including Vatican City.



After doubling up Players Group at halftime, the Jayhawks had an outdoor halftime locker room to get out of the scorching Honey Sports City gym.
