ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — LSU running back Derrius Guice, Iowa All-American cornerback Josh Jackson and Texas offensive lineman Connor Williams were left in the green room when the first round of the draft ended.

Other notable players still available are linebacker Harold Landry of Boston College, linebacker Arden Key of LSU and running backs Ronald Jones of USC and Nick Chubb of Georgia.
Here is the latest Mid-America sports news from The Associated Press
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — After going without a selection in the first round, the Kansas City Chiefs will have a second-round pick and two third-round choices when the NFL draft resumes Friday night. The Chiefs are scheduled to pick No. 54 overall for their first selection.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Matt Davidson hit two of Chicago’s five home runs, leading the White Sox to a 6-3 victory over the Kansas City Royals. Davidson, who drove in three runs, has seven home runs this season _ five against the Royals. He homered in the fourth and then hit a two-run shot in the sixth that wemt 450 feet to left-center. Yoan Moncada homered to open the first inning for Chicago for the second straight night, and Yolmer Sanchez and Trayce Thompson also went deep against Jakob Junis.
ST. LOUIS (AP) — Dexter Fowler’s 13th-inning single capped a comeback from a pair of deficits and gave the St. Louis Cardinals a 4-3 victory over the New York Mets. St. Louis trailed 2-0 in the seventh and 3-2 in the 10th. Tommy Pham had four hits and scored twice, a day after leaving a game after cutting his head with his bat while warning up in an indoor batting game. He played with a large bandage on his head. St. Louis won its second straight against the Mets after losing the series opener in 10 innings.
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Because of its place on the calendar, the Drake Relays has always been at the mercy of the weather. After a miserable spring in Iowa, the organizers of this weekend’s meet couldn’t have asked for better conditions. Competitors are expected to be greeted by sunny skies and temperatures in the low 70s on Friday and near 60 for Saturday’s closing session.
The St. Louis Cardinals were able to outlast the New York Mets on Thursday afternoon with a 4-3 win in 13 innings. Dexter Fowler delivered the winning hit with a walk-off single that brought home Jose Martinez to end the game in the bottom of the 13th. The Cardinals tied the game at 2 on a Tommy Pham single in the bottom of the 8th. Both teams brought a run home in the 10th to make it 3-3 before the Fowler winner.
John Gant came on in relief ,after being added to the roster before the game, and pitched 3 no-hit innings with one strikeout to pick up the win. Paul Sewald pitched 1 1/3 innings for the Mets and took the loss.
The Cardinals took two of three games from the Mets and have now won 10 of their last 12. The Redbirds will now head to Pittsburgh for a three game set over the weekend with the Pirates.
After a miserable spring in Iowa, the organizers of this weekend’s meet couldn’t have asked for better conditions.
Competitors are expected to be greeted by sunny skies and temperatures in the low 70s on Friday and near 60 degrees for Saturday’s closing session. Those conditions could lead to some new Drake records after just one mark — Omar McLeod’s own in the men’s 110-meter hurdles (13.04 seconds) — fell a year ago in part because of nasty weather.
The Iowa Hawkeyes will try to cool off the nation’s hottest team beginning Friday night when they open a three game series against Michigan in Iowa City. After stumbling out of the gate the Wolverines have won 20 straight games and are 11-0 in the Big Ten. The Big Ten’s unbalanced schedule has a lot to do with where these teams stand. The Hawkeyes are 7-6 and when the weekend is over will have played the top five teams in the standings while the wolverines have already played the bottom three teams.
The Hawkeyes are 13-3 at home this season and hope to use that as an advantage this weekend. Iowa will send Nick Allgeyer to the mound in the opener.

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) — Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds has signed a bill requiring schools to adopt return-to-play rules for students who may have concussions. The Republican governor signed the bill on Thursday. The new law received bipartisan support from both legislative chambers. Schools will be required to adopt medical review protocols. Those protocols were first developed in 2013 by the associations that oversee high school athletics in Iowa. Most schools already followed the protocols, but they have been optional until now.
Legal liability will be limited for schools that choose to have a health care provider present at games. The nonpartisan Legislative Services Agency says the law is expected to result in “minimal” costs for schools.
The Drake Relays get into full swing on Thursday at Drake Stadium in Des Moines. High School events on Thursday will include the Girls 3000M and Boys 3200M finals, Boys Discus and Long Jump, and Girls High Jump and Shot Put.
