Iowa State Forward Royce White Making Others Nervous

Sports

January 30th, 2012 by Jim Field

AMES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa State star Royce White was at the free throw line with just 1:47 left in the game against mighty Kansas this weekend with a chance to give the Cyclones a five-point lead.

Nerve-racking? Sure. Especially for White, who has had an anxiety disorder since childhood and awoke from a nightmare in which he couldn’t make a free throw the morning of the game.

White capped a brilliant 18-point, nine-rebound game by sinking those crucial two free throws and the Cyclones (15-6, 5-3 Big 12) went on to beat then-No. 5 Kansas 72-64.

White says his anxiety is almost a gift since it forces him to focus on improving, though it costs him sleep.

White leads Iowa State in points, rebounds and assists heading into Tuesday’s game against Kansas State (15-5, 4-4).

New Cardinals Hall of Fame Museum Website Debuts

On Line Museum Celebrates Team History, Showcases Extensive Cardinals Collection, Engages Fans

ST. LOUIS, Mo., January 30, 2011- The St. Louis Cardinals Hall of Fame
and Museum debuted a new website (www.cardinals.com/museum) today that
showcases the team’s extensive collection of baseball memorabilia, while
encouraging fans to explore and learn more about the rich 121-year
history of the St. Louis Cardinals.

The web site (www.cardinals.com/museum) includes hundreds of
historical photographs, several fresh virtual exhibits and dozens of
informative videos that go inside the collection and highlight the
biographies of some of the greatest Cardinals in team history. The new
web page (www.cardinals.com/museum) also has interactive elements
designed to encourage fan input and engage fans.

“We wanted to create a place to showcase our vast museum collection,
while giving fans a chance to learn more about the rich history of the
Cardinals,” said Bill DeWitt III, President of the Cardinals.

The Cardinals Hall of Fame and Museum collection is the largest
team-held collection in baseball and is second only to National Baseball
Hall of Fame in terms of size with over 15,000 memorabilia items and
over 80,000 archival photographs. While the museum has been closed since
2008, artifacts from the Cardinals Hall of Fame museum are currently
featured throughout Busch Stadium, including in the team’s front office,
Cardinals Team Store and Cardinals Club, as well as part of periodic
special exhibits within the community.

“This website is a great way for us to further the educational mission
of the museum, while making our collection available to fans all over
the world in a free and fun format,” said Vicki Bryant, Vice President
of Event Services and Merchandising. “Our museum staff and Major League
Baseball did a fantastic job with the designing the web site to bring
the rich history of the Cardinals alive.”

The virtual museum (www.cardinals.com/museum) features several unique
exhibits such as the story of the Cardinals 11 World Championships, Stan
“The Man” Musial and a look at how the Cardinals got their name. The
website also includes a “Question from the Fans” section where fans are
encouraged to give their personal account of games, eras or players.
This interactive ability will allow the team to gather and share
individual experiences as they continue to tell the story of the
organization.

Other sections of the site (www.cardinals.com/museum) include,
“Cardinalographies,” an in-depth look at an era in Cardinals history or
biography of a Cardinals great; “Inside the Collection,” a unique look
at individual items from a special Cardinals moment; and the Cardinals
Museum “Theme of the Week,” where each week the museum will offer a
topic that will be discussed at length.  The site is designed to be
updated often as new chapters in team history are written each season.

Sports

January 30th, 2012 by Ric Hanson

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (AP) — Freshman Cody Zeller scored a season-high 26 points to help No. 16 Indiana defeat Iowa 103-89 on Sunday night. Zeller made 11 of 12 shots and had four assists and three steals for the Hoosiers (17-5, 5-5 Big Ten), who scored more than 100 points in a conference game for the first time since defeating Iowa 110-79 on March 12, 1995. Christian Watford scored 15 points, Verdell Jones III had 14 points and nine assists and Victor Oladipo had 12 points and six rebounds for the Hoosiers, who had lost four of five.

Carter gives A&M women 66-64 win over Iowa State

Sports

January 29th, 2012 by Ric Hanson

COLLEGE STATION, Texas (AP) – Sydney Carter made two free throws with 2.4 seconds left to lift No. 14 Texas A&M to a 66-64 win over Iowa State on Sunday.  Iowa State’s desperation heave down the court as time expired was grabbed by A&M’s Kelsey Bone.   The Cyclones’ possession before Carter’s free throws ended when Nikki Moody, apparently thinking the game clock was the shot clock, didn’t try to get a shot off as the shot clock expired with 7.3 seconds remaining. Carter went 0 for 4 on Sunday and her only points came on the late free throws. Adaora Elonu had 19 points and Tyra White added 14 for Texas A&M (14-5, 5-3 Big 12). The Cyclones (11-8, 2-6) were led by Chelsea Poppens, who had 22 points and nine rebounds.
