Here is the latest Mid-America sports news from The Associated Press

JUPITER, Fla. (AP) — St. Louis Cardinals right-hander Miles Mikolas will receive a platelet-rich plasma injection in his ailing throwing arm, likely delaying his regular-season debut by about one month. The 2018 All-Star received a similar injection after last season to treat a flexor tendon issue. St. Louis manager Mike Shildt says the injection will keep Mikolas from throwing for three to four weeks. Once he is cleared to throw, Mikolas will have to restart his throwing program from the beginning.

MILWAUKEE (AP) — Ty-Shon Alexander scored 22 points and Marcus Zegarowski added 17 to lead No. 15 Creighton to a 73-65 victory over No. 19 Marquette. Creighton won for the eighth time in nine games, including road victories over three ranked teams, and moved within a half-game of first-place Seton Hall in the Big East standings. Sacar Anim had 18 points for Marquette. Markus Howard, who entered as the nation’s leading scorer at 27.3 points per game, added 13 — all in the second half.

UNDATED (AP) — Xavier Pinson scored a career-high 32 points on 9-of-13 shooting and missed just one free throw in 11 attempts and Missouri beat Ole Miss 71-68 on Tuesday night. Dru Smith added 17 points for the Tigers going 9 for 10 from the foul line. In Missouri’s win last Saturday over No. 11 Auburn, Pinson and Smith combined for 56 of the team’s 85 points. Both teams led for portions of the second half leading up to a tie at 63 with less than two minutes remaining. Pinson and Smith hit eight key free throws, and the Tigers’ defense held the Rebels to just four points. Breein Tyree led the Rebels with 29 points.

AMHERST, Mass. (AP) — Tre Mitchell scored 24 points and Dibaji Walker added 14 points off the bench and UMass edged Saint Louis 67-63. Carl Pierre’s 3-pointer with 1:49 left broke a tie at 62 and the Minutemen held on. Preston Santos added 13 points and Sean East II distributed seven assists. UMass distributed 18 assists on 27-made field goals. Jordan Goodwin’s layup just out of halftime put the Billikens up 41-31 before UMass began a methodical march back. Samba Diallo’s jumper with 9:18 to play put it up 50-49 and neither team led by more than four going forward. Goodwin had 22 points and 14 rebounds for St. Louis.

LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) — Kansas has hired Jonathan Wallace to coach special teams and running backs, completing an overhaul of coach Les Miles’ staff as the Jayhawks head into Year 2 of the former national championship-winning coach’s regime. Miles announced the hiring in a statement Tuesday. Wallace spent last season coaching tight ends at Air Force, and he spent the previous season at Bethel, a Division III school in Minnesota where he worked with recently promoted offensive coordinator Brent Dearmon.

CAM finishes strong and advances over Riverside

Sports

February 18th, 2020 by admin

The CAM girls basketball team got off to a slow start on Tuesday night but finished strong for a 59-28 win over the Riverside Bulldogs in a Class 1A Region 8 Quarterfinal game. The Bulldogs jumped out to a 4-0 lead and the Cougars turned the ball over a handful of times before CAM Head Coach Joe Wollum made a line change. A fresh five came in and finished the rest of the quarter and put CAM on top 9-6 by the end of the period. The starters came back out in the 2nd quarter and got the Cougar offense rolling. The Cougars knocked in 6 threes in the quarter and led 34-16 by half. The Cougars would control the game the rest of the way.

CAM Head Coach Joe Wollum said after the game he was proud of the way his team responded after the early stumble.

Zoey Baylor had a big third quarter and finished with 14 points to lead the Cougars on the night. Sami Jahde hit 4 threes on the night to notch 12 points, Marissa Spieker and Mallory Behnken both dropped in 9. Nine different Cougars got in the scorebook. CAM improves to 16-6 on the season and advance to the 1A Region 8 Semifinals. The Cougars will take on Woodbury Central in Denison on Friday night at 7:00 p.m. Woodbury Central picked up a 59-35 win over Woodbine to advance. Coach Wollum expects a physical challenge from the Wildcats.

Woodbury Central enters the contest on Friday with a 17-5 record.
