(Radio Iowa) – High school students in at least 20 different Iowa districts staged walk outs yesterday (Thursday) to protest bills in the legislature that they say unfairly target L-G-B-T-Q youth. The president of the sophomore class at Storm Lake High School said during a demonstration outside her school that students just want to remember their high school years as normal and fun, but Iowa legislators are making that really hard for a certain group of students.
Some central Iowa students protested outside the governor’s residence. Others rallied in the Iowa Capitol rotunda, chanting: “we say gay.”The chant is a reference to a bill introduced in Iowa and other states to ban classroom discussions about sexual orientation in elementary schools. The bill is sometimes called the “don’t say gay” bill.
Drake seniors Roman Penn and D.J. Wilkins are healthy are ready to make one more post season run. The duo grew up in northwest Indiana and both got off to slow starts after offseason surgery. Wilkins suffered an ACL injury late last season and Penn underwent two surgeries to repair a broken foot. Both played their best basketball during a stretch run that saw the Bulldogs win 10 of their last 11 games.
After playing the end of last season on a broken foot Penn is happy to be pain free.
Like Penn, Wilkins was focused on rehab during the summer and it took a while to round into game shape.
After a string of frustrating injuries Wilkins is happy they are both available for the Missouri Valley Tournament.
After falling at Bradley in the winner take all regular season finale Penn says the Bulldogs are focused on the tournament title.
The Bulldogs are the second seed and open Friday night in St. Louis against the winner of Thursday’s game between Murray State and Valparaiso.
The 23rd ranked Iowa State women cut a 17 point fourth quarter deficit to three but could get no closer in a 98-93 loss at Kansas.
That’s Cyclone coach Bill Fennelly. Kansas was 11 of 20 from three point range.
Drake sophomore Tucker DeVries has been named the Missouri Valley Conference Player of the Year. De Vries averaged 19 points and more than five and a half rebounds for a Bulldog team that- finished the regular season 24-7 and 15-5 in the Missouri Valley Conference. Drake opens the Valley Tournament in St. Louis Friday night.
A year ago DeVries was named the Valley Freshman of the Year.
DeVries became a much more consistent shooter this season as a sophomore.
DeVries becomes the fifth different Bulldog to win the Larry Bird Trophy and the first since Adam Emmenecker in 2008.
The UNI Panthers open Arch Madness in St. Louis Thursday afternoon by taking on Illinois State in the opening round of the Missouri Valley Tournament. The eighth seeded Panthers are 13-17 and beat the Redbirds twice, including a 65-63 win in Cedar Falls in mid-January.
That’s UNI coach Ben Jacobson. The Illinois State combination of Darius Burford and Seneca Knight is averaging 25 points and 10 rebounds.
Panther guard Bowen Born has struggled with a calf injury but did manage to play 30 minutes in the regular season finale against Belmont.
Illinois State is 11-20. Redbird coach Ryan Pedon says his team must match UNI’s toughness.
Pedon says another key will be forcing Bowen Born to take tough shots.
The winner will advance to play top seed and regular season champion Bradley on Friday.
