Texas Tech beats Iowa State 66-31 for 1st Big 12 win

Sports

October 10th, 2015 by Ric Hanson

LUBBOCK, Texas (AP) — Patrick Mahomes threw for 428 yards and five touchdowns, two to Jakeem Grant, to lead Texas Tech past Iowa State 66-31 on Saturday for the Red Raiders’ first Big 12 win. Grant had a career-high 166 yards on nine catches. He caught TD passes of 75 and 37 yards for Texas Tech (4-2, 1-2). It was Grant’s third 100-plus-yard game this season.

DeAndre Washington had a receiving and a rushing TD, while Justin Stockton scored on a 54-yard rush. The Red Raiders intercepted Cyclones quarterback Sam Richardson three times — two by J.J. Gaines — and Texas Tech scored touchdowns off two of them. Mahomes was sacked for only the second time this season when he was called for intentional grounding.

Redshirt freshman Mike Warren had his third straight game of more than 100 yards for the Cyclones (2-3, 1-1), finishing with a career-high 245 yards on 23 carries.

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Jordan Canzeri rushed for 256 yards on a school-record 43 carries and No. 22 Iowa held off Illinois 29-20 on Saturday for its sixth straight win. C.J. Beathard had 200 yards passing and two TD for the Hawkeyes (6-0, 2-0 Big Ten). They’ve already taken down four Power Five opponents heading into next week’s game against No. 13 Northwestern.

Canzeri’s 75-yard touchdown run put Iowa ahead 23-13 late in the third quarter. Geronimo Allison pulled Illinois back within three on a 53-yard TD reception, but freshman Ke’Shawn Vaughn’s fumble with 3:09 left doomed the Illini. Wes Lunt threw for 317 yards and a touchdown for Illinois (4-2, 1-1).

Spartans lose heart-breaker at top ranked Newell-Fonda

Sports

October 10th, 2015 by admin

The Exira-EHK Spartans came up a play shy of a huge road win on Friday night.  The 6th ranked Spartans lost 42-35 to top ranked Newell-Fonda in Newell.

The Spartans had driven the ball late deep into Mustang territory.  A run and a facemask call gave the Spartans first and goal on the 3 yard line.  On the next play the shotgun snap sailed over Quarterback Brady Hansen’s head and was scooped up in stride by Defensive End Cole Wise for the Mustangs who returned it the other direction for the winning touchdown with 29 seconds remaining.  The Spartans last ditch effort ended with a fumbled hook and lateral attempt that was covered up by Newell-Fonda.

The Mustangs extend their winning streak to 18 games dating back to last season’s State Championship squad and now stand at 7-0 for the 2015 campaign.  The Spartans fall to 6-1 with the loss.

20151009_210954Brady Hansen had touchdown runs of 4, 19, and 44 yards in the second half for the Spartans, the first two coming during a run of three straight offensive possessions.  After scoring to take the lead 21-20 on the first drive of the second half the Spartans were successful on an onside kick that caught Newell-Fonda off guard.  Exira-EHK took advantage and scored on Hansen’s second touchdown run 9 plays later to push their lead to 28-20.  On the next kickoff the Spartans has a short kick that was misjudged by the return man whom slipped and couldn’t get back to the ball before Cole Madsen recovered it again for the Spartans at the 9 yard line.  The Spartans drove to the 1 yard line but fumbled on 3rd down as Hansen stumbled during the exchange with Running Back Drew Buckholdt and the Mustangs recovered.

Newell-Fonda scored 4 plays later on a 57 yard touchdown run by Reed Kruse to tie the game.  Hansen’s 44 yard touchdown run on the next possession gave the Spartans the lead back at 35-28 with 1:40 left in the third.  But the last two scores would belong to the Mustangs as QB Jason Hess tied it on a 31-yard touchdown run with 8:30 to go setting up the dramatic finish.

The Spartans went for a 4th and short on their own 19 and got knocked back setting Newell-Fonda up with a short field.  But the Mustangs couldn’t capitalize being tackled on a 4th down completion at the one.  That set up the long late drive by the Spartans that ended with the fateful fumble.

Lackey dominates, Cardinals beat Cubs 4-0 in NLDS opener

Sports

October 10th, 2015 by admin

ST. LOUIS (AP) – John Lackey outpitched old teammate Jon Lester, allowing two hits into the eighth inning, and rookies Tommy Pham and Stephen Piscotty each homered late as the St. Louis Cardinals cooled off the Chicago Cubs with a 4-0 victory Friday night in the opener of their NL Division Series.

In front of a standing room only crowd of 47,830 – the second-largest at 10-year-old Busch Stadium – thousands of Cubs faithful mixed into the red throng for the first postseason game between the two long-time rivals.

Game 2 of the best-of-five series is Saturday. The Cardinals turn to lefty Jaime Garcia (10-6), who made 20 starts coming off risky thoracic surgery. Kyle Hendricks (8-7) makes his postseason debut for the NL wild-card winners.

Matt Holliday had an RBI single in the first, giving St. Louis a lead after just three at-bats. Pinch-hitting, Pham homered off Lester and Piscotty had a two-run shot off Pedro Strop in the eighth.
