Chiefs waive wide receiver Armon Binns in series of moves

Sports

August 8th, 2015 by Ric Hanson

ST. JOSEPH, Mo. (AP) — The Kansas City Chiefs have waived wide receiver Armon Binns and linebacker Sage Harold and signed offensive tackle Anthony Dima and wide receiver Adam Drake in a series of moves Saturday. Binns had not been practicing after hurting his knee earlier in training camp. Harold was considered a longshot to make the roster at linebacker.

Dima signed with the Cleveland Browns after going undrafted last year, and also has spent time with the Houston Texans. Drake led the Football Championship Subdivision in yards receiving last season at Eastern Illinois with 93 catches for 1,321 yards and 12 touchdowns.

 

Iowa turns to CJ Beathard at quarterback

Sports

August 8th, 2015 by Ric Hanson

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — In two seasons as Iowa’s backup quarterback, C.J. Beathard was one of the most popular players on the roster. Now it’s up to Beathard to live up to outsized expectations. Beathard, a redshirt junior nicknamed “Sunshine” by his teammates, was promoted to the starting role following a brutal loss to Tennessee in January’s TaxSlayer Bowl.

The move convinced former starter Jake Rudock to leave for Michigan and potentially left Beathard and the Hawkeyes in a tough spot. If Beathard can’t come through in 2015, it’s tough to see Iowa improving on a tepid 7-6 finish in 2015.

Beathard is the only quarterback with any experience for the Hawkeyes, who open against Illinois State on Sept. 5.

Grichuk hits 3-run HR, Lynn pitches Cards past Brewers 6-0

Sports

August 8th, 2015 by Ric Hanson

MILWAUKEE (AP) — Randal Grichuk hit a three-run homer to cap a six-run fifth inning, and Lance Lynn pitched the St. Louis Cardinals past the Milwaukee Brewers 6-0 Friday night. Lynn (9-6) stranded nine runners in six innings as the NL Central leaders became the first major league team to reach 70 wins this season. He allowed six hits and four walks while throwing 109 pitches.

It was the second consecutive shutout and 12th this season for the Cardinals (70-39), who beat Cincinnati 3-0 on Thursday behind All-Star Michael Wacha. Brewers rookie Tyler Cravy (0-3) replaced veteran Kyle Lohse in the rotation and had little trouble with St. Louis until unraveling in the fifth. The Cardinals had three doubles, a walk and a single in the inning before Grichuk hit his 14th homer.

Iowa State signs F Simeon Carter

Sports

August 7th, 2015 by Ric Hanson

AMES, Iowa (AP) – Iowa State has signed prep forward Simeon Carter for next season. Carter, a 6-foot-8 forward from West Charlotte, North Carolina, was considered a top recruit who had previously committed to SMU. Carter averaged 14.5 points, 10 rebounds and four blocks a game for West Charlotte High last season, earning all-state honors.

Carter might not see the floor much next season, as Iowa State will lean on senior frontcourt players Georges Niang, Jameel McKay and Abdel Nader. But Carter’s signing is crucial for new coach Steve Prohm, whose roster beyond 2015-16 remains in flux.
