OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Nathan Bannister and two relievers pitched a four-hitter, Arizona had 14 hits against what had been the best pitching staff in the NCAA Tournament, and the Wildcats beat Oklahoma State 9-3 at the College World Series on Friday. The Wildcats forced a Saturday rematch, with the winner advancing to the best-of-three finals beginning Monday.
Bannister was dominant until he had to leave with an apparent injury with two outs in the third inning. Kevin Ginkel (5-1) and Cameron Ming held the Cowboys mostly in check the rest of the way. Jensen Elliott (9-3) took the loss.
JJ Matijevic and Zach Gibbons had three hits apiece to lead Arizona (46-23). The Wildcats took a 1-0 lead in the first on Matijevic’s RBI single, marking the first time the Cowboys (43-21) have trailed in the national tournament. Louis Boyd doubled in a run and Gibbons had an RBI single in the second, and Gibbon’s sacrifice fly in the fourth made it 4-0.
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) – The Iowa Supreme Court is upholding the search of a high school football player’s equipment bag that uncovered a loaded handgun and drugs. The court ruled Friday that Dunkerton High School officials had grounds to search Mar’yo Lindsey Jr.’s bag in 2013, rejecting arguments that it violated his constitutional rights.
The case arose when Lindsey got injured on the field during a road game. Before going to the hospital, Lindsey told school officials to make sure that a specific student got his bag and that nobody else should take it.
That raised their suspicions. The superintendent later searched the bag after putting it on the floor and hearing a “clunk” that he believed was a gun. He found marijuana and a loaded long-barreled handgun in a backpack inside the bag.
Two former Iowa State Basketball players had their names called at the NBA Draft in Brooklyn, New York Thursday night. All-American and Karl Malone Award Winner Georges Niang was selected by the Indiana Pacers in the second round with the No. 50 pick.
Niang concluded his career as Iowa State’s second all-time leading scorer (2,228) and was just the fourth Division I college basketball player since 1994-95 to accumulate 2,000 points, 700 rebounds and 400 assists in a career. He averaged 20.5 points, 6.2 rebounds and 3.3 assists as a senior, becoming a consensus All-American and taking home the Karl Malone Award, which is given annually to the nation’s top power forward.
The other Cyclone selected was Forward Abdel Nader who was selected by the Boston Celtics in the second round of the NBA Draft with the No. 58 pick.
Nader, a Skokie, Illinois native increased his scoring from 5.8 points as a junior to 12.9 points in his final season. He shot a career high 48.7 percent from the field and 37.1 percent from 3-point range. Nader earned All-Big 12 honorable mention accolades as a senior after scoring in double figures 22 times in 2015-16. He posted seven games with 20 or more points, including a season and career-high 26 points at Baylor.
This marks the 7th time that Iowa State has had multiple players selected in the same draft.
OMAHA, Neb. (AP) – Light-hitting David Parrett had three RBIs in his first College World Series start and Coastal Carolina converted three Texas Tech errors into six unearned runs in a 7-5 victory that eliminated the Red Raiders on Thursday night.
Coastal Carolina (51-17) will play TCU in the Bracket 2 final on Friday night. The Chanticleers, in the CWS for the first time, would have to beat the Horned Frogs in that game and again Saturday to reach next week’s best-of-three finals.
Texas Tech (47-20), at No. 5, was the third and final national seed knocked out of the CWS.
The Chanticleers took a 4-3 lead in the third after they converted three hits and two infield errors into three runs.
Mike Morrison (8-1) pitched a season-high 4 1/3 innings of relief for the win, and Bobby Holmes earned his fourth save. Erikson Lanning (3-4) took the loss.
