ST. LOUIS (AP) — The St. Louis Cardinals will remain on their longtime radio flagship station through at least 2024, and with the same team of announcers. The Cardinals on Friday announced a five-year extension of their radio rights agreement with the media company Entercom Communications, the owner of KMOX. Financial terms were not disclosed. A news release from the Cardinals says that announcers Mike Shannon, John Rooney, Ricky Horton and Mike Claiborne will continue.

Most of the Cardinals Radio Network will also remain under the new agreement. The network consists of 147 stations in eight states — Arkansas, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Oklahoma, Kentucky and Tennessee in addition to Missouri. You can listen for St. Louis Cardinals Baseball on KJAN during the season.

Here is the latest Mid-America sports news from The Associated Press

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — The Big 12 has seen plenty of upsets and close games this season. Parity makes for fierce competition and games that are fun to watch. It also presents a quandary about the league’s chances of making the College Football Playoff.

UNDATED (AP) — Everyone hopes the playing surface at Mexico City’s Azteca Stadium will not be the main story of Monday night’s game between the Kansas City Chiefs and the Los Angeles Chargers. Coaches Andy Reid and Anthony Lynn said they have received favorable updates about the turf going into the game. Last year’s game between the Chiefs and Rams was moved back to Los Angeles less than a week before the game when the field was deemed unplayable due to rain and the stadium hosting concerts before the game.

WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — Attorneys for the family of a 19-year-old football player who died of heatstroke after conditioning practice at a Kansas community college says they plan to sue the school, unless it wants to discuss a settlement. Attorney Chris Dove spoke Thursday after the college released a scathing independent report on Garden City Community College’s conduct the day Braeden Bradforth died. Dove calls it a damning investigation.

LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) — Kansas coach Bill Self knew it was important to fill the majority of his upcoming recruiting class during the early signing period, given the uncertainty that surrounds the Jayhawks when it comes to potential NCAA violations. The school was hit with a series of allegations earlier this year, the majority of them tied to recruiting violations, and Self was personally fingered for supposedly failing to monitor the program.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) — Markquis Nowell had 20 points as Arkansas-Little Rock defeated Southwest Baptist 77-59. Ben Coupet Jr. had 18 points and seven rebounds for Arkansas-Little Rock.
