Isaiah Blackmon signs with Fort Hays State Football

By Dustin Armbruster

A third Hays High Indian signed his letter of intent to play football for the Tigers of Fort Hays State University on Friday. Isaiah Blackmon said the disappointment of seeing his senior season come to a close was replaced by realization that he still had a chance to play football after talking with the coaches at FHSU. Blackmon spent parts of the last two seasons as a starter on both the offensive and defensive side of the ball.

Isaiah Blackmon

As a running back, Blackmon rushed for 625 yards on just 155 carries and scored nine touchdowns. Blackmon was also a key blocker in the passing attack. Defensively he totaled 124 tackles, ten for loss, in his career. Blackmon’s career numbers include two sacks, caused four fumbles and recovered two.

He ranked 8th in the Western Athletic Conference in tackles and second in forced fumbles. He was given Honorable Mention status by the WAC coaches his senior season.

Freeman, Prince lead No. 21 Baylor past K-State

By DAVE SKRETTA
AP Sports Writer

MANHATTAN, Kan. (AP) – Al Freeman scored 21 points, Taurean Prince had 18 and No. 21 Baylor beat cold-shooting Kansas State 82-72 on Wednesday night to remain a game back of the leaders in the Big 12 race.

Playing without leading rebounder Rico Gathers due to illness, the Bears (18-6, 7-4) opened on an 8-2 run, led by as many as 14 in the first half and never trailed the rest of the way.

The Wildcats (14-10, 3-8) were 2 of 14 from beyond the arc, getting their only 3s from Justin Edwards in the final minute. His first made it 72-65 with 58.3 seconds left, and his second after two free throws by Baylor’s Ishmail Wainwright made it 74-68 with 47.4 seconds remaining. They weren’t enough to bail out the Wildcats, though.

Edwards finished with 19 points, while D.J. Johnson had a career-high 19 points to go with eight rebounds for the Wildcats.

FHSU weekend baseball series with Regis moving to Hays

FHSU Athletics

Fort Hays State baseball has made adjustments in its schedule for the coming weekend. Instead of heading to the Denver area to play three games against Regis University and one against Colorado Mines, a three-game series with Regis will now be played in Hays on Saturday and Sunday (Feb. 13-14). The series has moved due to lingering snow and moisture at Regis’ baseball facility.

Fort Hays State and Regis will start the series with one game on Saturday at Larks Park beginning at 3 pm. The teams will return on Sunday to play a doubleheader starting at 12 pm. All games of the 3-game series will be 9-inning contests.

The game scheduled with Colorado Mines this week has been removed from the schedule.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) – Ron Baker and Shaq Morris had 11 points each and No. 25 Wichita State pounded Drake 74-48 on Tuesday night for its 12th win in 13 games.

Thirteen players scored for the Shockers (18-5, 12-1 Missouri Valley Conference), who moved within two victories of clinching at least a share of its third straight league title.

Wichita State had little trouble with the Valley’s worst team, rattling off a 27-5 run to close the first half in beating the Bulldogs for the ninth straight time.

Reed Timmer scored 20 points for Drake (6-19, 1-12), which lost for the 15th time in 17 games.

LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) – Perry Ellis had 21 points, Landen Lucas pulled down a career-high 16 rebounds and No. 6 Kansas beat No. 10 West Virginia 75-65 on Tuesday night to forge a three-way tie atop the Big 12.

Frank Mason III added 14 points for the Jayhawks (20-4, 8-3), who handled the Mountaineers’ pressure well in avenging a loss lost month in Morgantown that had them playing catch-up in the league race.

Now, they are tied with the Mountaineers (19-5, 8-3) and No. 3 Oklahoma (20-3, 8-3) as they pursue their 12th consecutive championship. All three teams have seven games remaining.

Devin Williams had 14 points and nine rebounds, and Jaysean Paige also had 14 points for the Mountaineers – though their leading scorer was just 5 of 16 from the field.

TMP Boys win 4OT thriller, Girls cruise

By JEREMY McGUIRE

Boys:  TMP 69, Scott City 66  4OT

In what would be by man an instant classic the TMP Monarchs outlasted the visiting Scott City Beavers in four overtimes on Tuesday night at Al Billinger Fieldhouse.  It was a game that saw the largest lead of only seven points (for Scott City) and had five starters foul out between the two teams.  In the end, TMP stood strong for the win.

Just like many predicted it was a nip and tuck game the entire way.  Scott City led by four, 12-8 after the first quarter. It was a two point game late in the first half when the Beavers hit a late three to take a 28-23 lead at the break.

Scott City bolted out of the gates in the second half and led 32-25.  TMP would score the next seven points to tie the game at 32.  The Beavers would take a 38-34 lead heading to quarter number four.

It was back and fourth in quarter number four.  TMP trailed by three late when Scott City’s Bo Hess missed two free throws and TMP came the other way and Jared Vitztum, who finished the game with 33 points, hit a three to send the game to overtime number one tied a 51.

Both teams scored two points in the first overtime and went scoreless in the second overtime.  The third overtime started with a 53-53 tie when Ryan Ruder hit a three pointer from the right wing to give TMP their first lead of the game.  TMP was able to extend the lead to four points but Scott City battled back and eventually tied the game at 62 to force a fourth overtime.

In the fourth overtime TMP was able score five straight points to go up 67-64 after the Beavers went up by two early in overtime number four.  The Monarchs hit some big free throws down the stretch and picked up the 69-66 win. TMP is now 12-3 on the season and will be on the road in Phillipsburg on Friday night.
