DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) – Featherlite Inc. founder Conrad Clement
and his family have purchased the Iowa Speedway.
Officials announced Tuesday that the family known for
Featherlite aluminum trailers has purchased the holding company
that owns the five-year-old track, U.S. Motorsports Corp., from the
Manatt family. Terms were not disclosed.
The Manatts own a Brooklyn, Iowa-based construction company.
They’ve been the primary investor since the track was built in 2006
but had intended to transfer controlling interest in five years.
The 0.875-mile track has been a hit with fans in Iowa since it
opened.
This year, Iowa has four major events on the schedule, including
last month’s IndyCar race, two NASCAR Nationwide events and a
NASCAR trucks series event on July 16.
Track officials say Rusty Wallace will remain a minority owner
and that no staff changes are planned.
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) – The Martensdale-St. Marys High baseball
team in central Iowa has won its 76th straight game, a streak that
now ranks second-best in the nation.
The Blue Devils, which plays in Iowa’s smallest classification,
surpassed the 75-win streak put up by Homer, Mich. from 2004-05 by
beating Mounty Ayr 10-0 Tuesday night.
Martensdale-St. Marys competition for the nation’s longest-ever
winning streak still has its run alive, though.
The Des Moines Register reports that Portsmouth, N.H. has won
its last 83 games.

Comments by Coach Hinzmann…
“This would have been a great game for us to win but we were one out, one
throw, one tag, away from making that happen. Whenever a game comes down
to a one run game as it did early in the 8th inning you can look at things
that happened anywhere through out the game which could have made the
difference. We felt we let this game slip away and hopefully we can use
that for motivation for practice the next three days and carry that into
the Glenwood game Saturday. As much as we really would have liked to win
this game, the big test comes in the first round of the regions at
Glenwood Saturday!”
The baseball and softball games tonight (7/5) in Atlantic, vs. Denison, will be played varsity first beginning at 5:30, JV to follow.
Drake track stand-out Casey McDermott of Newton won the Clover Run on July 2nd in Greenfield. She covered the 5K course in an impressive 18:13. Topping the men’s division was Greenfield native Nick Newbury, an Urbandale resident, who ran 18:40.
The two mile run winners are a pair of former Nodaway Valley cross country standouts. Alyse Herr of Fontanelle won the women’s division and Ethan Warrior captured the men’s title.
Jane Chaillie of Griswold earned the top spot in the women’s 2 mile walk. Gary O’Daniels of Creston claimed the men’s walk title.
The event is hosted by the Adair County 4-H Youth Council. The proceeds from the race suppot the Kelly Laughery Memorial 4-H Community Service Scholarship program.
