Atlantic Girls Basketball sees season end after poor shooting night

Sports

February 18th, 2016 by admin

The Atlantic Girls Basketball team saw their season come to an end on Wednesday night at Shenandoah High School as they fell in a Class 3A Regional Semifinal to the Fillies by a final score of 56-39.

It was a very poor shooting night for the Trojans and they found themselves down in an early hole trailing by 10 at both the end of the first quarter and half.  Atlantic rallied for a bit in the third and cut the Fillies lead down to six for a moment before Shenandoah pushed it back out to an 11 point lead at the end of the third.  The Fillies got it done at the free throw line as well, hitting 23 of 28 to help push them to the win.

Atlantic was led in the loss by Senior Erin Olsen with 11 points.  Catherine Leonard added 9 points and Tiffany Williams chipped in 7.  The Trojans see their season come to a close with a record of 13-9.

Royals add netting to Kauffman Stadium to improve safety

Sports

February 18th, 2016 by Ric Hanson

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Royals are installing additional netting at Kauffman Stadium that extends toward the outfield end of each team’s dugout to improve the safety for fans sitting along the foul lines. Several clubs have considered ways to protect fans from foul balls hit into those seats, and some have suggested that similar netting should be mandatory in major league ballparks.

Royals vice president Kevin Uhlich said Wednesday that the club considered several options before deciding on the new netting. The club hopes it strikes a balance between safety and allowing fans sitting in premium seats to have the same kind of ballpark experience as in years past.

The World Series champion Royals play their opener April 4 against the New York Mets, the team they beat in five games for the title.

 

Iowa extends athletic director Gary Barta’s contact 5 years

News, Sports

February 18th, 2016 by Ric Hanson

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — A big year from Iowa’s football and basketball teams means a big raise for athletic director Gary Barta. Documents obtained by The Associated Press show that Iowa President Bruce Harreld and Barta reached a five-year contract extension last month. It guarantees Barta $4.6 million in compensation through June 30th, 2021.

The deal increases Barta’s base salary from $400,000 to $550,000 in July and guarantees $250,000 in annual deferred compensation. Both amounts increase by $50,000 in 2018. Despite fan unrest last year, Barta stuck by football coach Kirk Ferentz. Ferentz led the Hawkeyes to 12 wins and a Rose Bowl appearance.

Barta’s biggest hire, basketball coach Fran McCaffery, has turned a once-moribund program into the nation’s fourth-ranked team. Barta’s department is also facing a federal investigation into sex discrimination allegations.
