Will Howard not transferring when K-State brings in Adrian Martinez is an example of why in most cases is not the best decision to transfer. Patience paid off and led the Wildcats to the Big 12 title.
I feel for Tang, the staff and the players. Tomlin was working his butt off to right a wrong. This could seriously backfire for the Un Pr. The best thing that can happen is the students and alumni, and fans rally around the team the rest of the year. They need it more than ever.
Larned rallies for an 11-point deficit in the fourth quarter and won it on the Mason Perez backdoor layup with 3 seconds to go to beat Hugoton 69-67. That punched their first trip to state since 1994. The Indians went on a 30-17 fourth quarter run. What a fun game to watch!
Baylor drops a spot because they barely beat 6-5 Texas Tech with a backup qb, but Alabama stays in the same spot despite rallying to beat a 6-5 Auburn team in 4OT. Goes to show that it’s all about the name on the front of the jersey.
Quite a matchup on Saturday in the 3A Boys Sub-State final in Kingman. Two Scott City classmates in the Class of 2015, who helped the Beavers win the 3A State Championship their senior year, will face off. Sloan Baker at Chaparral & Trey O’Neil at Hugoton.
A very well-written article on my Dad. It’s amazing that over four decades of teaching, how many kids he’s taught and the impact he’s had in their life. Students that were in a science-related field that went to schools all over,...
Well tonight was my final night seeing this view in Scott City. I’ve seen some great athletes, great teams and some tough losses over the years. Can’t wait to start up in the new gym at the middle school!
The GWAC gets both finals spots in the girls Class 3A title game with Hugoton and Goodland. The league was loaded this year, with four other quality teams that could knock off many other ranked teams in the state.
Definitely wasn’t an easy decision either way, but we should all be thankful for the time and efforts put in by
@KSHSAA
, executive board and others. Fingers crossed, we’ll be seeing athletics back going in a few weeks!
What a shame by the people who organize Country Stampede! You just hurt small businesses in Manhattan who rely on their income from stampede. Tuttle Creek is a better spot than Heartland Park.
Topeka’s Heartland Motorsports Park will be announced Thursday as the new permanent home of the Country Stampede Music Festival, multiple sources have told The Capital-Journal. Story by

The GWAC had six girls teams in a midseason tournament final (Cimarron, Colby, Goodland, Holcomb, Hugoton, Scott City), with three winners (Cim, Gdlnd, Hug), & two of the finals head to head. I'd say it's about as good of league for 3A/4A as anywhere else in the state.
Goodland native Brook Berringer with Coach Tom Osborne on the north side of Memorial Stadium in Lincoln. He was a great role model for kids in northwest Kansas and beyond. Hard to believe it’s been 25 years since he passed away.

Yesterday was the last time I’ll see an event from this view. I’ve seen many great football games and track performances over the last nine years from here. Exited though to call a game in the new press box & stadium in the fall.
It’s one thing not to want a team you’re watching not win. It’s another thing when you’re a league school and you’re openly cheering for them to lose. You’re just asking for bad karma.
This is a first, but I’m going to call out the K-State student section. It’s a close game and half of you are gone in the third quarter. Shameful. It’s a close game!!! Do better.
Hey
@Whataburger
, I see you're expanding into Kansas City. That is awesome! I was wondering if you would want to expand to other locations in Kansas, maybe Manhattan, Wichita, Salina, or Scott City?
Two things
@mitchholthus
& I have in common: we’re both from the NCK & our high schools have the same fight song. It was great to see & hear h at the Chiefs Affiliates day. He’s a broadcaster I’ve listened to all my life from K-State to KC, & have learned lots from him.
@LifeofFitz
If my memory serves me right, Utah wasn't the first option in the state of Utah for the Pac 12 back in 2010. Stanford and I believe Cal had a solid stance on not allowing BYU into the conference.
I do think that schools should be closed for a time period. However, to close it for the rest of the year right now seems too strong. IMO, they should review this in a week by week basis, then decide by mid April if they need to shut down, then do so.
It will be interesting to see how soon a decision will come for Bill Snyder. I refuse to trash him. If it weren’t for him, K-State may not have a football program, as well as the changes in Manhattan.
Last year,
@taryn_sides
is leading Phillipsburg to a 3rd place finish at state. This year, she’s guarding one of the top players in the country. Sometimes, life comes at you fast.
Saw this this morning on the touch wall inside the Hutchinson Sports Arena. Hard to believe it’s been 23 years ago when my alma mater, Belleville, won the title here. I remember rushing the court on the buzzer-beating layup! What a memory.
Class 1A will be split into 2 divisions. So the 6 classes lasted just 2 years. Smh. Basically says
@KSHSAA
wasted their time when they did all that work a few years ago.
Congratulations to Brett Meyer
@BMeyer44
on making the finals in the 1500M Run at the USA Track & Field Championships on Saturday! Qualified with the seventh fastest time.
I find it interesting that Texas is celebrating Ricky Williams today, 25 years after his heisman win. K-State scored more points than Williams had rushing yards that day when they played in Manhattan.
Should I submit my resume to be the next head coach at KU? I am 112-0 on NCAA Football with South Alabama, and have gotten them from the Sun Belt to the SEC in a short amount of time. I have strong recruiting ties to the south.
For a second time this year,
@HopesooDope
was providing team security. This time he was a little more discreet. What you don’t see is he had a loaded mini water gun in his right pocket.
I’m disappointed that K-State lost, but more sad that this is the last time this team takes the court together. I never imagined a turnaround like this at the beginning of the year. Thanks to
@CoachJTang
, staff and players for making
@KStateMBB
fun again! What a year!!

This closure is expected to remain in place through December. Please drive safely!
The official detour is west on Kimball Avenue, then north on College Avenue, then back east on Marlatt Avenue.

Jerome Tang needed a moment to gather himself when asked about a KSU student who recently passed. Tang had visited her sorority, and she made a trip to Stillwater to watch the 'Cats this season. Coach gave her parents a call yesterday, about 30 minutes before tipoff.
I feel that
@espn
is doing the NCAA WBB National Championship game a disservice by putting it in the middle of a Sunday afternoon. It deserves to be put at 6 or 7 pm ET. They must have been afraid it would take away from Sunday Night Baseball.
The broadcasts for the NCAA Tournament have been good. One thing I wish they would change is eliminating interviews with the coaches in the middle of a half. Halftime and postgame interviews are fine, not during the game.
I think the
@NFL
needs to change their rule on affiliates broadcasting the conference championship games, outside of the flagship station. That’s total garbage they can’t carry their regular guys. Fans want to hear their play by play guys.
How cool is this? Scott City High cheers on their own MacKayla Miller as she wins the 4-1A 235 title.
