Evans’ 22, leads Oklahoma State past No. 3 Kansas

Posted on

By CLIFF BRUNT
AP Sports Writer

STILLWATER, Okla. (AP) — Freshman Jawun Evans had 22 points, eight assists and six rebounds to help Oklahoma State upset No. 3 Kansas 86-67 on Tuesday night.

The Cowboys beat Kansas in Stillwater for the third straight time and the fifth in seven years.

Jeff Newberry scored 13 points and Jeffrey Carroll added 11 for the Cowboys, who had lost four straight. Oklahoma State shot 50 percent from the field, made 11 of 21 3-point attempts and outrebounded the Jayhawks 38-31.

Frank Mason III scored 14 points and Perry Ellis added 13 for Kansas (15-3, 4-2 Big 12), which has lost two of its past three and fell out of a tie for the Big 12 lead.

Oklahoma State made 23 of 26 free throws while Kansas made just 13 of 24.

The Cowboys (10-8, 2-4) nearly knocked off then-No. 2 Oklahoma six days earlier, but they missed a last-second shot and lost 74-72.

Hays girls fall at Dodge City

Posted on

By Dustin Armbruster

Hays High hung through the first eight minutes with #10 Dodge City. The second eight minutes though was a different story. In the first quarter the Hays High zone forced Dodge City to shoot three pointers and the Red Demons responded with misses, making just one of seven. That allowed Hays to keep with in striking distance of the conference leaders down 8-6 after one quarter.

Highlights

The Indians employed the same strategy in the second quarter, but Dodge City made four of their six attempts. Dodge City went on a 16-1 run to blow the game open and lead 31-11 at half time.

Hays would only muster a single point in the third quarter and fell behind by 36 in the fourth quarter 48-12. Hays would score the final eight points of the game for the final score of 48-20.

Coach Kirk Maska

It was the Indians lowest point total of the season. Hays falls to 4-6 and 1-3 in the WAC Dodge City is 7-3 and 3-0.

Hays is off until next Thursday when they travel to McPherson for the Mid-America Classic.

Hays Post

TMP 75, Smith Center 42

TMP opened up a double digit first quarter lead that they would never relinquish against Smith Center in the quarterfinals of the Mid Continent League Tournament on Tuesday night at Al Billinger Fieldhouse.  The Monarchs led 22-9 after the first quarter following a Peyton Hoffman 30 foot three pointer at the buzzer.  The success continued in the second quarter as TMP extended their lead to 47-24 by halftime.

There was little drama in the second half as the Monarchs continued to extend their lead throughout picking up the 75-42 win.  Jared Vitztum led four Monarchs in double figures with 27 points.  TJ Flax added 14, Hoffman 13 and Ryan Ruder 10 for the 8-2 Monarchs who have now won eight games in a row.  TMP will now face Hill City in the semi-finals of the MCL Tournament on Friday in Plainville.  The Ringnecks were 54-41 winners over Ellis in quarterfinal play.

FHSU men receiving votes in latest NABC Poll

FHSU Athletics

Fort Hays State Men’s Basketball is receiving votes in the latest NABC Division II Poll, released on Tuesday (Jan. 19). Fort Hays State is one of two MIAA schools receiving votes in the poll.

After a pair of wins at home last week, Fort Hays State owns the best overall record in the MIAA at 13-4. The Tigers received 10 votes in the latest poll, while Northwest Missouri State received nine votes. The Tigers and Bearcats are the only teams from the MIAA referenced in the latest poll. The MIAA has been so competitive top to bottom this year that there are currently no teams inside the top 25.

Northwest Missouri State has an overall record of 11-5, but the Bearcats are tied for first in the MIAA standings at 8-3, while FHSU is 7-4. The Tigers and Bearcats meet this weekend, part of a two-game road trip. FHSU plays at Missouri Western on Thursday before playing the Bearcats on Saturday in Maryville, Mo.

Tiger women remain No. 3 in WBCA Division II rankings; Face No. 5 MWSU this week

Posted on

FHSU Athletics

Fort Hays State remained No. 3 in the latest WBCA Division II Poll, released on Tuesday. The Tigers hold the No. 3 ranking for the third straight week and they prepare for another road swing in the MIAA, including a meeting with No. 5 ranked Missouri Western on Thursday.

The Tigers enter the week on a six-game win streak. Fort Hays State remains the highest ranked team from the MIAA, but Missouri Western leapt five more spots in the polls this week to No. 5. As the No. 10 ranked team in the nation last week, Missouri Western went on the road to defeat Washburn and No. 9 ranked Emporia State. The Griffons kept their perfect record for the season, now at 17-0 overall and 11-0 in the MIAA. Emporia State slipped to No. 12 in this week’s poll following its loss to Missouri Western.

Alaska-Anchorage takes over as the nation’s No. 1 ranked team after previous No. 1 West Texas A&M took its first loss of the season last week. Lubbock Christian, the No. 4 team in last week’s poll, jumped up to No. 2 this week as it is still unbeaten on the season.

Fort Hays State engages in its second top-five battle of the season on Thursday in St. Joseph at Missouri Western. To get to No. 1 in the poll earlier this season, a then No. 5 ranked FHSU defeated No. 1 ranked Emporia State in Hays by one point on December 5. FHSU held the No. 1 ranking for nearly a month. This is the only time the FHSU meets the Griffons in the regular season, as they are one of just four opponents FHSU does not play twice in MIAA action this year. FHSU enters Thursday one game back of Missouri Western in the MIAA standings, looking to tie for the conference lead through 12 games of the 22-game conference schedule.

Below is the WBCA Division II Poll for January 19, 2016.

FHSU’s Davis named MIAA men’s basketball Athlete of the Week

Posted on

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Fort Hays State’s Rob Davis has been named the MIAA Men’s Basketball Athlete of the Week after averaging 30.0 points per game in a pair of wins for FHSU over Northeastern State and Central Oklahoma.

In the Tigers 84-74 win over Northeastern State, he scored a team-high 24 points and hit four 3-point field goals. On Saturday in a 91-74 win over Central Oklahoma, Davis scored a career-high 36 points and went 8-of-10 from beyond the 3-point line and 13-of-18 overall from the field.

The 36 points matched the most scored by a Tiger under head coach Mark Johnson, tying teammate Craig Nicholson who had 36 in a game in 2014. The eight 3-point field goals in a game tied for third-most in school history, just one shy of the school record of nine held by two players.

Davis finished 22-of-32 (.688) from the field, 12-of-18 beyond the 3-point line (.667), and a perfect 4-of-4 from the free-throw line for the week. Davis added 2.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists, and 2.0 steals per game with his 30-point average.

The 5-11 junior guard is a native of Detroit, Mich. where he competed at Westside Christian Academy prior to playing at Pratt Community College.

Royals agree to two-year deal with outfielder Lorenzo Cain

Posted on

Kansas City Royals

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The Kansas City Royals announced today that they have agreed to a two-year contract with outfielder Lorenzo Cain, avoiding arbitration.  Consistent with club policy, terms of the deal were not disclosed.

Cain, 29, is coming off a banner year, where he was selected to his first All-Star Game and finished third in the American League Most Valuable Player voting, while helping the Royals win their first World Series title in 30 years.  The right-handed hitting outfielder batted .307 with 34 doubles, six triples, 16 homers with a career-best 101 runs scored, becoming the first KC player to score at least 100 runs in a season since 2011.  He also ranked second in the A.L. in stolen bases (28), while he was fifth in batting average and runs scored.  He led the Junior Circuit, batting .372 with two outs, which was the third-highest two-out average in franchise history.

Cain started all 16 postseason games in center field, batting .258 with two doubles, a homer, 11 RBI, 11 runs scored and a Major League-best 11 walks.  He hit safely in his first nine postseason games this year to extend his hitting streak to 13, which is the second-longest in franchise history, behind teammate Alcides Escobar’s 15-game streak.  Cain recorded a franchise-best six steals during the 2015 postseason, including four during the World Series.  He scored the winning run from first base in the series-clinching Game #6 of the ALCS vs. Toronto, while he also capped a five-run 12th inning with a bases-clearing double in the deciding fifth game of the World Series.

The signing of Cain today leaves the Royals with just one unsigned arbitration-eligible player: third baseman Mike Moustakas.
