Here is the latest Mid-America sports news from The Associated Press
BOSTON (AP) — Forty-nine years after Boston’s Bobby Orr flew through the air following his Stanley Cup-clinching goal against St. Louis, Bruins defensemen Connor Clifton and Charlie McAvoy played a huge role in a Game 1 win over the Blues. Both scored in the second period to tie the game at 2-2 and the Bruins went on to take the opener 4-2.
OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — The Omaha Mavericks have overcome a lack of facilities to make the NCAA baseball tournament for the first time. The Mavs’ bid means all three of the state of Nebraska’s Division I schools will be represented in the 64-team tournament. The Nebraska Cornhuskers and Creighton Bluejays also are in. The Mavs are the top fielding team in the nation even though they had to practice on a gym floor when the dome over their practice facility collapsed in February.
CHICAGO (AP) — Yolmer Sanchez hit a tying single, then entertained his White Sox teammates with a dugout show during a long rain delay before Chicago’s game against the Kansas City Royals was suspended in the fifth inning with the score 1-all. The teams will pick up Tuesday where they left off. During the break, Sanchez kept the White Sox amused by doing jumping jacks and pouring a beverage bucket over his head.
OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Pac-12 champion UCLA is the No. 1 national seed for the NCAA baseball tournament. The Bruins won each of its series for the first time in program history and carry a 10-game winning streak into the tournament. Vanderbilt is the No. 2 seed after sweeping the SEC regular-season and tournament titles. Behind UCLA and Vanderbilt are Georgia Tech, Georgia, Arkansas, Mississippi State, Louisville and Texas Tech. The tournament opens with regional play Friday.
HOOVER, Ala. (AP) — The Southeastern Conference is set for its annual spring meetings in Florida. Commissioner Greg Sankey discussed with the AP likely topics including potential availability lists with sports betting legalized in some SEC states; NCAA transfer waivers; and the potential for student athletes to eventually be compensated for their names, images and likenesses.
Here is the latest Iowa news from The Associated Press at 3:30 a.m. CDT
CHARLES CITY, Iowa (AP) — A tornado hit an area near the Floyd County fairgrounds in Charles City, destroying several buildings and damaging others. The Des Moines Register reports the tornado hit the fairgrounds and homes in the northeast Iowa city about 12:30 p.m. Monday. Craig Anderson, the fair board treasurer, says the tornado destroyed two fairgrounds buildings and severely damaged two others. Two buildings at the nearby Floyd County Ag Center also were destroyed. No injuries were reported.
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa voters are overwhelmingly white, but the state’s few black voters could play an outsize role in choosing the winner of the first contest among Democrats seeking to challenge President Donald Trump. The Iowa caucuses tend to draw the party’s most motivated voters, and this year Democrats say black voters are energized as seldom seen. That could give the candidate who rallies the biggest share of the state’s 2% black population a narrow victory in a crowded field.
MOSBY, Mo. (AP) — Some property owners who accepted a buyout from the federal government because their homes are prone to regular flooding say they’ve grown frustrated with the long wait times to get their checks. An Associated Press analysis of federal data shows the government has spent more than $5 billion over the past three decades on its flood buyout program, and the costs have been rising over the past decade. This spring’s Midwest flooding is likely to add even more homes to the buyout queue.
SIOUX CITY, Iowa (AP) — Two Iowa women shot during a convenience store robbery are recovering in a Sioux City hospital. According to the Le Mars Police Department, a male suspect demanded money from the two Le Mars Hy-Vee Gas Station clerks Sunday. He then allegedly shot both victims in the stomach and fled. The Sioux City Journal reports police later found the suspect dead of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound in South Sioux City.
