KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Kansas City Chiefs traded the 28th overall pick to San Francisco on Thursday night and received the 49ers’ second-round pick along with choices in the fourth and sixth rounds in this year’s NFL draft. The 49ers used the first-round pick on Stanford guard Joshua Garnett.

Kansas City will have the 37th overall pick when the draft resumes with the second and third rounds Friday night. They will also have their original second-round choice at Number 59.

The Chiefs had their third-round pick stripped as part of the penalties handed down for a tampering case last offseason. So when runs on cornerback and wide receiver took several top players off the board at their biggest positions of the need, the Chiefs made the decision to trade down.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Heather Miller-Koch successfully defended her Drake Relays heptathlon title Thursday, winning four of the seven events and finishing with 5,796 points. Kale Wolken won the decathlon by nearly 1,000 points over Tyler Jones of Kent State.

Wisconsin took the 6,400-meter relay, giving the Badger men’s program 50 meet titles overall, and the Minnesota women claimed the 6,400 for the first time in five years. Melissa Dock won the women’s 10,000 in 34 minutes, 41.83 seconds, while Hart Horner took the men’s race in 29:35.50.

Bethanie Brown of Iowa was the 5,000 winner in 16:25.19, and Texas Tech’s Evans Tuitoek topped the men’s field at 13:58.56.

Multiple media outlets are reporting that the Big Ten Network has selected the annual Iowa vs. Iowa State Football game for primetime coverage on September 10th.  A specific start time has not been set yet but the Cy-Hawk battle will be under the lights this year at Kinnick Stadium in Iowa City. Reports are that North Carolina at Illinois will also be a primetime game on that date for BTN.

Northern Iowa safety Deiondre’ Hall is the highest rated Iowa college player heading into tonight’s (Thursday night’s) start of the NFL Draft in Chicago. Hall was the Missouri Valley Conference Defensive Player of the Year as a senior and is ranked as the eighth best safety in the draft according to CBSsports.com.

Hall is one of two Panthers who are projected to be taken in the draft. If both get drafted it would be the second year in a row that UNI had two players selected in the draft. Hall and Makinton Dorleant hope to join the ever growing list of former UNI players who made it to the NFL.

Iowa tight end Henry Krieger-Coble and center Austin Blythe are projected as sixth or seventh round selections.
