2013 IHSBCA Super Team All-State (1)

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Murphy Bromberg was the leading qualifier going into the women’s 10-meter platform final at the U.S. national diving championships Wednesday. She set a pool record with 373.20 points at the University of Iowa. That bettered the mark of 357.70 set by Olympian Brittany Viola in 2011.

Cheyenne Cousineau, who was Bromberg’s synchro partner at last month’s world championships in Spain, qualified second in the semifinals with 301.35. Emma Villarreal was third at 296.20. The top 12 divers advanced to Saturday’s final. In the men’s 3-meter springboard semis, Hayden Jones was the leading qualifier at 454.10.

Steele Johnson was second at 423.45, and Michael Hixon was third at 423.25. Sam Dorman, who won the 1-meter title on Tuesday, qualified ninth. The meet runs through Sunday.

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. (AP) — Arkansas head cross country and track and field coach Chris Bucknam has been inducted to the University of Northern Iowa Athletics Hall of Fame. Bucknam is one of six people inducted in the 2013 Hall of Fame class. The induction ceremony will take place at the UNI campus on November 8th.

Prior to taking over the Arkansas program, Bucknam was UNI’s head men’s track and field coach from 1984 through 2008 and the women’s head coach from 1997 through 2008 after beginning his career as a men’s assistant at UNI in 1979. During his tenure at UNI, Bucknam guided his teams to 35 league titles, and two top-10 and six top-20 finishes at NCAA Indoor and Outdoor Championships.

He coached three individual national champions and 34 All-Americans who earned a total of 85 honors.

ST. JOSEPH, Mo. (AP) — Pro Bowl running back Jamaal Charles remained sidelined by a strained right foot and will likely miss the Kansas City Chiefs’ preseason game Friday night against San Francisco. Charles left the practice field on Monday and speculation ran rampant that the injury was serious. X-rays came back negative and the Chiefs still consider him day to day.

The Chiefs practiced only in shells for the final time at Missouri Western on Wednesday before moving their base back to Kansas City next week. They will hold a closed walk-through on Thursday before playing the 49ers at Arrowhead Stadium. The only other notable absence at practice was linebacker Akeem Jordan. Chiefs coach Andy Reid said that he had a personal matter but would rejoin the team today (Thursday).

***********

The Kansas City Chiefs waived linebacker Chad Kilgore and signed cornerback Kennard Cox prior to their final practice Wednesday on the campus of Missouri Western State University. Kilgore, who played at nearby Northwest Missouri State, spent time in training camp with the Raiders last season. He played high school football in Excelsior Springs, Mo.

A longshot to make the team, he was waived to clear space for Cox, who has played 29 games in four NFL seasons spent with Jacksonville and Seattle. The former seventh-round pick has also spent time with the Bills and Packers earlier in his career.

The Chiefs play their second preseason game Friday night at Arrowhead Stadium. They resume training camp at their own practice facility next week.
