Gators’ 11-run inning ties record, fuels 15-3 win over Miami

Sports

June 14th, 2015 by Ric Hanson

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) – Florida scored 11 runs in the fourth inning to tie a College World Series record, and defeated Miami 15-3 on Saturday night, the Hurricanes’ most lopsided loss in their long and proud postseason history. The Gators’ outburst broke open a surprisingly sloppy game and ended with Florida having turned a 2-1 deficit into a 10-run lead on nine hits off Andrew Suarez and two relievers.

Florida (50-16) advanced to a Bracket 1 winners game against Virginia on Monday night. Miami (49-16) and Arkansas will play an elimination game that afternoon. Logan Shore (10-6) scattered seven hits and struck out six in five innings for the win. Suarez (9-2) took the loss in a 3 1/3-inning outing that matched his second shortest of the season.

2 injured during motorcycle vs. pedestrian accident in C. Bluffs

News

June 14th, 2015 by Ric Hanson

Authorities say speed appears to have been a factor in a motorcycle versus pedestrian accident Saturday evening, in Council Bluffs. According to Bluffs Police, the accident happened at around 6:50-p.m. on 20th Street at the intersection with Avenue A.

Authorities say 21-year old Spencer Seyler, of Council Bluffs, was driving a 2000 Yamaha Motorcycle westbound on Avenue A, a one-way street.   37-year old Jeremiah Sapien, of Council Bluffs, was walking across Avenue A on 20th Street. Seyler said that he and another motorcycle operator identified as 23-year old Tommy Milam, of Council Bluffs, were traveling westbound on Avenue at “25-30 MPH” when Jeremiah Sapien “walked out in front of them.”

Sapien told police he saw the motorcycles approaching but believed they were a block away. He stepped into the roadway and was struck by one of the motorcycles. He believed the motorcycles to be speeding. The investigation revealed that Seyler’s motorcycle struck Sapien, and then struck a parked Ford F-150. Seyler was ejected from the motorcycle. Seyler was transported by CBFD to Mercy Hospital with nonlife
threatening injuries. Sapien was transported by CBFD to Creighton with possible serious injuries. His injuries turned out to be non-life threatening also.

Impairment is not believed to be a factor in this case. Speed is believed to be a factor. Traffic charges related to driver’s license status and insurance have been filed against both motorcycle operators. Additional charges may be filed.
