Melanie Petty, Fund representative, said “This particular clinic was aimed at third grade through high school age boys interested in pitching. Our goal is to give back in ways that represent Trevor’s interests, and Trevor was a pitcher so this was a perfect opportunity for us.”

To date, the Trevor Frederickson Memorial Fund has donated over $75,000 to a variety of area projects and organizations. Their annual fundraiser, the T-Fred Memorial Golf Tournament, will take place August 9 at Atlantic’s Nishna Hills Golf Club. For more information, like the Trevor Frederickson Memorial Fund on Facebook.

LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) — Andrew Wiggins has finally started to live up to the hype. The superstar freshman scored a career-high 29 points, including six straight late in the game, to lead Number 6 Kansas to a 92-81 victory over Iowa State on Wednesday night and help push the Jayhawks’ winning streak to seven straight games.

Wiggins, the nation’s top recruit, has caught fire after a slow start to his college career. He had 27 points in Saturday’s win at TCU, and matched that with an emphatic dunk that gave Kansas an 81-72 lead with just under 3 minutes remaining in the game.

The Jayhawks (16-4, 7-0 Big 12) put away the Cyclones (15-4, 3-4) from there, something they failed to do after building a 16-point first-half lead and a 13-point second-half cushion. Perry Ellis added 20 points for Kansas, which has won five straight over the Cyclones.

Georges Niang led the Cyclones with 24 points and DeAndre Kane added 22.
