10.  Ciara Burnison, Shenandoah – 90
11.  Ashton Carter, Creston – 91
12.  McKenna Ludwig, Kuemper – 92

Atlantic Head Coach Kathy Hobson: “This was a great team victory for us as we head into our tournament season leading up to regionals.  McKenna played the front lights out, shooting a 40; she finished with an 89 – very proud of her.  Brooke sank a 25′ putt on #17 for birdie.  She played even on the back 9.  Alyssa and Baylee were steady all day.

As we move forward, our short game still needs improvement.  We need to continue to improve on our chipping and approach shots to the green.  We don’t give ourselves good opportunities on our first putts to make them.

Big outing in Sioux City Wednesday – should be very competitive.  Also good for us to go back to back days with 18 hole tournaments.”

Sports

May 3rd, 2017 by Ric Hanson

ST. LOUIS (AP) — Carlos Martinez pitched effectively into the eighth inning and the St. Louis Cardinals once again beat Wily Peralta, topping the Milwaukee Brewers 2-1 Tuesday night. Martinez (1-3), making his sixth start of the season, retired the first 12 batters. He gave up an unearned run on four hits in 7 1/3 innings, striking out four and walking one.

Trevor Rosenthal pitched a perfect ninth for his third save in three chances. Peralta (4-2) fell to 0-9 in his last 11 starts against the Cardinals. He allowed two runs in 5 1/3 innings.

Cardinals place Lyons on DL, recall Tuivailala

Sports

May 2nd, 2017 by Jim Field

ST. LOUIS, MO., May 2, 2017 – The St. Louis Cardinals announced today, prior to tonight’s game against the Milwaukee Brewers, that they have placed left-handed pitcher Tyler Lyons (right intercostal strain)  on the 10-day disabled list and recalled right-handed pitcher Sam Tuivailala from Memphis (AAA).

Lyons, who began the season on the disabled list while recovering from right knee surgery, had appeared in two games since joining the active roster on April 20.   He worked 3.0 innings, going 0-0 with a 3.00 ERA, including a scoreless 7th inning in last night’s game.

Tuivailala, who started the season with St. Louis, was recalled as the team’s 26th man for last Thursday’s day-night double-header, but did not appear in the final game of the twin bill and was returned to Memphis following the game.  Tuivailala, 24, was 0-0 with a 3.00 ERA in three games (3.0 IP) for the Cardinals earlier this season.   At Memphis, he was 1-0 with a 0.00 ERA and one save in eight games, striking out eight batters while allowing just four hits and one walk.

Tuivailala wears uniform no. 64.

Two-piece uniforms approved for US high school wrestlers

Sports

May 2nd, 2017 by Jim Field

INDIANAPOLIS (AP) — The U.S. National High School Athletic Association has approved two-piece uniforms for wrestling in hopes of increasing participation in the ancient sport.

Starting in 2017-18, prep wrestlers can wear either a traditional singlet or a uniform featuring tight compression shorts and a shirt.

The singlet can often be an unflattering uniform — especially for wrestlers in higher weight classes — and the association says experimental use of a two-piece uniform was met with positive reviews.

The international wrestling federation has previously explored the idea of two-piece uniforms in the Greco-Roman discipline, and singlets based off a country’s flag were approved in time for the 2016 Rio Olympics.
