The Exira-EHK Spartans will play host to the CAM Cougars in a Class 1A Region 7 Semifinal tonight in Elk Horn and we’ll have it on KJAN. This will be the third meeting between the squads this year with the Spartans prevailing in the first two. Exira-EHK won 63-53 at home on December 15th in the first meeting, a game that was much closer than the final score. The Cougars had a two point lead heading into the fourth quarter of that first game, but the Spartans outscored them 19-7 in the fourth quarter to pull off the win. The second meeting was won a little more handily by the Spartans on January 23rd 66-45. The Spartans led by 10 at half in that game and blew it open with a 24-6 third quarter advantage.
Both teams had to win to advance to this semifinal. The Cougars won a first round game over Griswold 40-36 and followed that with a quarterfinal win over Stanton 76-42. The Spartans were 77-23 winners over Riverside in their quarterfinal round game.
The winner will advance to the Regional Final against the winner of the Boyer Valley vs. Fremont-Mills game. That final will be played on Monday in Avoca at 7:00pm.
Chris Parks will have the call from Elk Horn tonight with pregame at 6:50pm and tip-off at 7:00pm. Tune in on-air, online, and on the mobile app.

JUPITER, Fla. (AP) — St. Louis pitcher Adam Wainwright says he isn’t thinking about retirement. He also isn’t pondering a contract extension. The 36-year-old former Cardinals ace help an impromptu news conference to talk about what he does not want to talk about. Wainwright is in the final season of a five-year contract. He says his sole focus is performing at his best this season. That was not the case last season and Wainwright acknowledged it became a problem.
SURPRISE, Ariz. (AP) — Jesse Hahn has changed uniforms and spring training sites in the past three weeks, but his goal remains the same: to break camp as a starting pitcher. Hahn was working out last month at Oakland’s complex in Mesa, and then was traded to Kansas City on Jan. 29 in a deal that sent Brandon Moss to the Athletics. Hahn went 3-6 with a 5.30 ERA in 14 games with the A’s. He spent time on the disabled list. He has taken a proactive approach with the Royals’ training staff to stay on the mound.
UNDATED (AP) — The NFL has named five sites as finalists to host the NFL draft in 2019 and 2020. The finalists to host either the 2019 or 2020 draft include Denver, Kansas City, Las Vegas and Nashville, plus a combined entry of Cleveland and Canton, Ohio. The NFL will announce final selections in May during the league’s spring meetings in Atlanta.
