May 21st, 2016 by Ric Hanson

ST. LOUIS (AP) — Patrick Corbin struck out seven and Chris Herrmann homered with three RBIs for the Arizona Diamondbacks in an 11-7 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals on Friday night. Michael Bourn and Chris Owings added two RBIs apiece for the Diamondbacks, who are 13-7 on the road and 7-17 at home. They pulled away with seven runs over the last two innings and have won nine of 10 road series openers dating to last September.

Carlos Martinez (4-4) allowed four runs in five innings and has lost his last four starts after winning the first four. Reliever Jonathan Broxton was charged with five runs in one-third of an inning in the eighth and infielder Ruben Tejada made his major league pitching debut in the ninth, surrendering consecutive homers to Herrmann and Brandon Drury.

Corbin (2-3) allowed two runs and four hits in 6 1-3 innings with four walks. The left-hander had been 0-2 in his previous five starts.

News

May 21st, 2016 by Ric Hanson

The Iowa State Patrol reports a woman from Cass County died during a rollover accident late Friday evening, in Adair County. 32-year old Jaime Lynn Mauldin, of Anita, who was not wearing a seat belt, died at the scene of the crash that took place just before 8-p.m. Friday, southwest of Orient.

Officials say Mauldin was traveling south on Nevada Avenue (Adair County Road P-17), when she lost control of her 1995 Ford F-150 pickup on the gravel. The vehicle left the road just north of 320th Avenue and entered the east ditch before rolling once and coming to rest facing northeast.

U. Iowa investigating whether students cheated online tests

News

May 20th, 2016 by Ric Hanson

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — The University of Iowa says it is investigating whether more than 30 students cheated in online classes by having others take exams for them. The school said Friday that it is reviewing each case of possible academic misconduct and will take disciplinary action against any students who are guilty. The issue came to light after potential irregularities were identified by ProctorU, a company the university uses to provide identity verification for online courses.

ProctorU said that discrepancies in identification were provided by test-takers in one or more exams and in some cases, in multiple courses. The school says sanctions could include expulsion or suspension.

Rollover accident west of Atlantic Friday evening

News

May 20th, 2016 by Ric Hanson

(Updated w/victim’s name 8:23-p.m.)

A man from Shelby County was injured during a single-vehicle rollover accident Friday evening, northwest of Atlantic. Cass County Sheriff’s Deputy Bill Ayers told KJAN News that 43-year old Robert Dambra, of Harlan was driving a 2008 GMC pickup westbound on Highway 83 at around 6:21-p.m when he drove off the right side of the road onto the shoulder and went down an embankment before rolling at least twice and coming to rest facing northeast near a field.

Dambra, who was wearing a seat belt, was injured but the injuries according to Ayers did not appear to be too serious. He was transported to the Cass County Memorial Hospital by Medivac Ambulance for evaluation and treatment, as necessary. Ayers said Dambra told medics he had a “sneezing fit” and became distracted, causing him to drive off the road.

With the win the Trojans will get to compete at the Class 3A State Tournament at Spring Valley Course in Livermore on May 27th and 28th.

Notes from Head Coach Ed DenBeste: “Jake and Kyle played great today.  Good to see both shoot in mid 70s today.  Ben had some tough holes today but came in with a good score of 83.  Like he stated it wasn’t pretty but an okay score.  Good to see Matt shot the 80 today.  Finished with a par that went completely around the hole before dropping in.  Zac had a lot of putts today.  Just couldn’t get it working.  Still battled though.  Nate had a tough back but better front.  Hopefully he will get it down on the next round.  Great to see this team meet their goal of making state.  Now we need to focus on finishing the season.”
