Chiefs Release OT Gaither After Penalty in Loss

Sports

November 30th, 2011 by Ric Hanson

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) – The Kansas City Chiefs have released offensive tackle Jared Gaither just days after he committed a costly false start penalty in a loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Gaither had come in for one down after left tackle Branden Albert was slow to get up. Gaither was called for a false start, pushing the Chiefs back 5 yards, and they eventually had to settle for a field goal. Kansas City wound up losing 13-9. The 6-foot-9, 340-pound Gaither was once viewed as a cornerstone offensive lineman in Baltimore, where he started five postseason games. But injuries kept him out last season, and he was unable to reclaim the same form from early in his career with Kansas City. His release leaves Steve Maneri as the only backup tackle.

Iowa’s First Shotgun Deer Season Begins Saturday

Ag/Outdoor, Sports

November 29th, 2011 by Ric Hanson

The Iowa DNR expects that nearly 90,000 hunters will be heading to the woods and fields during Saturday’s opening day for first shotgun season. Iowa’s shotgun deer seasons are the most popular among hunters and account for more than half of all deer harvested.  Although hunters will still have good hunting opportunities they can expect to find fewer deer across much of the state. They may need to hunt a little longer this year to be successful. 

“Deer numbers in many areas are near the department’s objective and we are now encouraging hunters to be more selective with their harvest,” said Dale Garner, the DNR’s wildlife bureau chief. “We have been hearing complaints from hunters that they are not seeing the number of deer that they had in the past and some are voicing their concerns that the herd reduction may have gone too far,” he said.  “My advice to those hunters is to work with the landowner to see if the deer population is at a desirable level and adjust the local doe harvest accordingly.”

With the crop harvest being completed, good habitat conditions and a favorable weather forecast hunting conditions should be excellent in most of the state. However, in western Iowa, hunters may find that the summer-long Missouri River flooding has changed the deer distributions so they may need to adjust where they hunt. 

Safety First

Blaze orange is required for hunters participating in the shotgun hunts and party hunting is legal. Hunters using blinds during the shotgun seasons are reminded that they are required to display at least 144 square inches of blaze orange that is visible from all directions (see p. 23 of the 2011 Hunting Regulations for more information). 

Report Your Harvest

All deer taken must be reported using the harvest reporting system by midnight the day after the deer is recovered.  Accurately reporting the harvest is an important part of Iowa’s deer management program and plays a vital role in managing deer populations and future hunting opportunities. 

For hunters with Internet access, the online harvest reporting is the easiest way to register the deer. Hunters can report their deer online at www.iowadnr.gov, by calling the toll free reporting number 1-800-771-4692, or at any license vendor.  

Tagging Antlered Deer

Hunters are reminded that antlered deer must have the transportation tag attached to the antler’s main beam, either at the base or between two points. 

Season

First shotgun season is Dec. 3-7. Second shotgun season is Dec. 10-18. Shooting hours are one-half hour before sunrise to one-half hour after sunset. 

Youth Season Tags

Youth season hunters with an unfilled “any-deer” license from the youth deer season who did not harvest a deer are eligible to hunt during one of the two shotgun seasons. However, the youth hunter must follow the weapons restrictions that are in place during the season and be under the direct supervision of a licensed adult. A youth must harvest and tag their own deer.

IHSAA Announces Wrestling, Basketball Hall-of-Fame Classes

Sports

November 29th, 2011 by Jim Field

Wrestling and basketball hall-of-fame classes for this winter have been announced by the Iowa High School Athletic Association and fans at those tournaments again will be treated to seeing an outstanding array of talent.

Selected for the Wrestling Hall of Fame are retired coaches BOB DYER of Glenwood (321-74-5) and GENE DOYLE of Cedar Falls (241-52). Also former state champions JEFF KELLY (100-15) and PAT KELLY (132-6) of Britt, both two time champions, and three-time mat kings CLIFF MOORE of Dubuque Hempstead (137-2; 1997, 98 and 99) and Cedar Falls’ JOSH BUDKE (151-11,1995, 96 and 97).
This year is also the 50th Anniversary of Britt’s BOB STEENLAGE becoming the first four-time State Champion. Original plans had him leading the Grand March but a personal commitment does not allow for that. Instead Steenlage will be introduced to the State Tournament crowd Friday evening and his brother Les, who has impressive wrestling credentials, will step in for him at the Grand March. Both will be featured in the program.

The Basketball Hall of Fame will induct the following former state tournament coaches: the late AD HLUBEK (239-95) at Fort Atkinson, Melrose (1937 and 1938) and Charlotte; DON BURTON (323-146) at Northeast Hamilton (1968) and South Hamilton (1991); and KEITH STRIBE (339-187) at Carroll (1996, 1997, and 2005), Sanborn and Northwest Webster.
Former players being inducted include LARRY LUST, who was a two time all-state and an offensive and defensive star on Newton’s 1963 and 1964 state championship teams before playing at SCI (UNI); MARK MOHL, who scored 1,815 points and was all-state at Lost Nation (1980-83) before starting at Kirkwood Community College and Morningside College and is now the head coach at North Iowa Area Community College; and CHRIS KUHLMANN whose scoring and defense led Denison to the 1986 and 1987 State Tournaments before going on to star at Morningside College;
Also, New Hampton’s BRIAN HEYING, a two time all-state and all-tournament selection in 1993 and 1994, who scored over 1,500 career points and pulled down 628 rebounds before going on to a career at UNI; RYAN BOWEN, three times named to all-state teams during a career at Fort Madison (1991-94) where he scored 1,507 points, collected 749 rebounds and blocked 296 shots before winning all Big 10 honors at Iowa and playing 11 years in the NBA; and RAEF LAFRENTZ a multiple all-state selection and all-tournament choice who poured in 2,148 points and snared 1,079 rebounds in leading MFL, Monona to state tournament appearances in his career (1991-94) before being a four year starter and two-time All American at Kansas University and an NBA star for 12 seasons.
