UNDATED (AP) — The Chicago Blackhawks and Ottawa Senators are moving onto the second round following a pair of lopsided Game 5 victories. The Blackhawks dispatched Minnesota 5-1 and the Senators outscored Montreal and its backup goalie Peter Budaj 6-1.

DENVER (AP) — CC Sabathia and five relievers combined on a four-hitter and the New York Yankees beat Colorado 3-1 in a game delayed more than two hours by rain at Coors Field. Robinson Cano homered and also had a single for his 1,500th career hit.

WASHINGTON (AP) __ Washington finished an abbreviated two-game interleague sweep by holding off the Detroit Tigers 5-4. Ryan Mattheus, Drew Storen and Rafael Soriano combined for shutout relief after Dan Haren nearly squandered a four-run lead. Soriano closed it out for his 12th save in 13 chances

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla.

May 9th, 2013 by Ric Hanson

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Ray Giacoletti is getting a chance to build Drake basketball into a better program. Giacoletti spent three seasons at Utah before resigning in 2007 after back-to-back losing seasons. He was hired by Drake in late March to take over its middling program. Giacoletti says he wants to recruit players who will stay with the Bulldogs for at least four years to build a foundation for success.

Sports

May 8th, 2013 by Ric Hanson

CHICAGO (AP) — Carlos Beltran and Jon Jay drove in two runs apiece, and the St. Louis Cardinals capped an impressive trip with a 5-4 victory over the Chicago Cubs on Wednesday. Beltran also had three hits as St. Louis won for the seventh time in eight games and improved to a major league-best 14-7 on the road. The Cardinals went 5-1 on a six-game swing to Milwaukee and Chicago, with the lone loss coming Tuesday in their first game of the season against the last-place Cubs.

The Cardinals trailed 4-3 before Beltran singled in Matt Carpenter in the seventh, and Jay drove in Yadier Molina with a tiebreaking single against Michael Bowden (1-2) in the eighth.

Hallie Christofferson Invited To World University Games Tryouts

Sports

May 8th, 2013 by Jim Field

AMES, Iowa – Iowa State rising senior Hallie Christofferson has been invited to a tryout for the 2013 USA Basketball Women’s World University Games team. Tryouts, which will feature 31 players, will be held May 16-19 at the U.S. Olympic Training Center in Colorado Springs, Colo.

This summer’s World University Games will be held July 8-15 in Kazan, Russia. The team will be coached by Oklahoma head coach Sherri Coale. Coale will be assisted by Marist head coach Brian Giorgis and Penn State head coach Coquese Washington.

“Being invited to try out for the World University Games team completes a very special year for Hallie,” Iowa State head coach Bill Fennelly said. “She will represent Iowa State in a great way as she always does at the trials. The opportunity to play for USA Basketball is one of the greatest honors someone could have and I know Hallie will be someone that has a great opportunity to earn a spot on this talented team.”

Fennelly served as head coach of the 2011 World University Games team that captured gold in Shenzhen, China.

Christofferson joins Oklahoma’s Aaryn Ellenberg and Baylor’s Odyssey Sims as Big 12 players invited to tryouts.
