CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) — The Panthers have signed all five of their draft picks. Carolina announced Thursday it has signed fifth-round draft pick A.J. Klein from Iowa State and sixth-round selection Kenjon Barner from Oregon, assuring all of their draft picks will be at training camp on time. Financial terms of the deals were not released.

The Panthers announced earlier Thursday they signed first-rounder Star Lotulelei and third-rounder Edmund Kugbila. Carolina previously signed second-round pick Kawann Short. General manager Dave Gettleman says the Panthers are “thrilled to have all of our draft choices under contract.” Klein is a three-time All-Big 12 Conference linebacker who recorded 117 tackles in each of the last two seasons. Barner, who the Panthers view as a potential scat back, ran for 3,623 yards rushing and 41 TDs at Oregon.

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Iowa baseball coach Jack Dahm is out after 10 seasons with the Hawkeyes. Iowa athletic director Gary Barta announced Thursday that Dahm’s contract won’t be renewed after a decade leading the state’s only remaining Division I program. Dahm, hired by Iowa in 2003 after 10 years at Creighton, was 235-302 with the Hawkeyes. Iowa reached the Big Ten tournament just three times during Dahm’s tenure, and his final team finished 22-27. Dahm was on a one-year deal set to expire at the end of June. Barta says the Hawkeyes will be looking for someone who “fits the culture” of the school as it searches for a new coach.

SAN DIEGO (AP) — Tyler Lyons pitched seven solid innings in his major league debut on the same day St. Louis lost Jaime Garcia for the season, and the Cardinals beat the San Diego Padres 5-3 on Wednesday night. Lyons, who was promoted from Triple-A Memphis after Garcia went on the disabled list, allowed one run and four hits. The 25-year-old left-hander was a ninth-round draft pick in 2010 out of Oklahoma State.

The Cardinals announced before that game that Garcia will have season-ending shoulder surgery this week. The lefty went 5-2 with a 3.58 ERA in nine starts this year, helping St. Louis bolt to the majors’ best record at 30-16.

SAN DIEGO (AP) — St. Louis Cardinals pitcher Jaime Garcia will have surgery on his left shoulder this week and is expected to miss the rest of the season. The Cardinals announced Wednesday that the left-hander will have surgery to repair tears in his rotator cuff and labrum. Team doctor George Paletta will perform the operation on Friday in St. Louis. Garcia is 5-2 with a 3.58 ERA in nine starts this year. He was put on the disabled list Sunday after feeling pain that had increased over the course of three starts.

Cardinals manager Mike Matheny says it wasn’t surprising news to find out Garcia needed surgery. Matheny said Garcia could get his shoulder cleaned up and be healthy for spring training.

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Former Iowa quarterback Brad Banks headlines the latest class of athletes set to be inducted into the athletic department’s Hall of Fame. Banks was The Associated Press Player of the Year in 2002. He was also named the Davey O’Brien Award winner for leading the Hawkeyes to the Big Ten title.

Banks threw for 26 touchdowns that season as Iowa earned a berth in the Orange Bowl. Banks will be joined in the hall by fellow Hawkeyes football player Craig Clemons. Gymnast Sam Bailie, track star Jennifer Brower-McNutt, basketball standout Franthea Price and longtime women’s golf coach Diane Thomason will also be inducted on August 30 in Coralville, Iowa.

ALLEN PARK, Mich. (AP) – The Detroit Lions have claimed defensive back DeQuan Menzie off waivers from the Kansas City Chiefs.  The Lions confirmed the move on Wednesday. Kansas City drafted Menzie last year in the fifth round and he didn’t play as a rookie because of a hip injury. He started 20 of 25 games over two seasons at Alabama.
