Senate expected to Busy intersection lit up approve energy bill

By BOB JOHNSON The Iola Register

By MATTHEW DALY The Associated Press

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Senate is poised to pass a wide-ranging energy bill that would promote a variety of energy sources and speed federal approval of projects to export liquefied natural gas to Europe and Asia.

Senators revived debate on the bill Tuesday after it was delayed for more than two months amid a partisan dispute over an emergency measure to help fix and replace lead-contaminated pipes in Flint, Michigan.

The bill would boost renewables such as solar and wind power, as well as natural gas, hydropower and geothermal energy. It also would update building codes to increase efficiency and strengthen electric-grid safety standards, among dozens of provisions.

Senate passage is expected as soon as today.

If approved, the measure must be reconciled with a House-passed bill that boosts oil and natural gas and speeds review of a pro-

posed coal export terminal in Washington state. President Barack Obama has threatened to veto the House measure.

If approved by both chambers and signed by Obama, the bill would be first farreaching energy law in nearly a decade.

Sen. Lisa Murkowski, an Alaska Republican and chairwoman of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, said the bill will help America produce more energy “and bring us one step closer to being an energy superpower. At the same time, it will help Americans save more money and save energy with all of the energy-policy provisions.”

The bipartisan bill is widely popular, but was delayed in early February amid a partisan dispute over a plan by Michigan’s two Democratic senators to send hundreds of millions of dollars in emergency aid to Flint to fix and replace the city’s lead-contaminated pipes.

The north entrance to Iola, from U.S. 169 via Oregon Road, is more visible after overhead lights went into service late last week.

The intersection has six fixtures, three on each side of the north-south highway.

Oregon Road has seen an increase in traffic since Allen County Regional Hospital opened half a mile west on north Kentucky Street in December 2013.

County Commissioner Tom Williams proposed lighting the intersection with U.S. 169 and Oregon as a safety measure.

Mitch Garner, director of Public Works, told commissioners Tuesday the light standards were erected and the intersection was showered with light altogether beginning Friday night.

Cost of the project was about $29,000, Garner said.

Consensus Revenue Estimating Group:

Can’t blame process for bad numbers

By JIM MCLEAN KHI

A handful of university economists and state officials will meet today behind closed doors in Topeka to revise their estimate of how much tax revenue Kansas will collect over the next year.

It’s a process the state has used since the late 1970s for budgeting purposes. But a string of missed estimates in recent years has made it controversial.

Between January 2013 and December 2014, monthly revenue collections generally tracked with projections. But since then, revenues have consistently failed to meet monthly targets even though the bar has been lowered several times.

When the Consensus Revenue Estimating Group met in November, it lowered its 2016 and 2017 estimates by a combined $353.6 million. Since then, Gov. Sam Brownback and lawmakers have been scrambling to balance the budget.

Brownback insists a sluggish economy caused by low crop and oil prices is responsible for the shortfalls in revenue. And he says the consensus estimating process itself also may be contributing to the problem. His office recently announced that it was reaching out to experts in other states for advice on how to fix it.

But former Kansas Budget Director Duane Goossen says Brownback’s criticism of the revenue estimating group is an attempt to divert attention from the real cause of the revenue shortfalls, the income tax cuts he pushed through the Legislature in 2012.

“Those tax policy changes upended the budget,” says Goossen, now a senior fellow at the Kansas Center for Economic Growth. “If income tax policy were still the same, if businesses were still paying taxes on their business income, if rates had not changed, Kansas would be collecting more than $1 billion a year more now than we are.”

ing state income taxes.

With support for repealing the exemption growing, even among Republicans, Brownback is said to be softening his opposition. Sen. Jim Denning, an Overland Park Republican, says the governor has backed away from his veto threat that prevented a repeal vote last year.

always amicable.”

But when the numbers are off as they have been recently, it causes big problems: The governor and lawmakers must cut spending, raise taxes or do both to balance the budget.

Last year, with Brownback threatening to veto any attempt to roll back his signature income tax cuts, lawmakers reluctantly voted for big increases in sales and cigarette taxes to end the longest session in state history.

The memory of those final weeks is making many lawmakers anxious as they prepare to return to the Statehouse to wrap up the 2016 session.

If, as many expect, the revenue estimating group substantially lowers its projections, it will force Brownback and lawmakers to once again scramble to balance the budget. And it would likely force a contentious debate on legislation to repeal the portion of the 2012 tax bill that allowed more than 330,000 business owners and farmers to stop pay-

Mary Ann Patterson gave a Sorosis Club history lesson when members met Monday for their 109th anniversary luncheon.

Jane Cunningham Broly, whose pen name was “Jennie June,” was an author and journalist as well as a supporter of women’s rights.

She called the first congress of women in 1856, and organized Sorosis in 1869.

The organization advocated for greater acceptance and professional opportunities for women, while avoiding the political discussions of suffrage. She considered Sorosis a salon where women could gather and exchange ideas, enjoy literature and discuss the arts.

The name was derived from a Greek botanical term that referred to a tree that yields various kinds of fruits and flowers.

Broly organized the program’s successor, the General Federation of Women’s Clubs in 1890. She founded the New York Women’s Press Club in 1889 and

ington, D.C.-based Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, also says the tax cuts, not the estimating process, are the likely reason for the revenue shortfalls.

“If you look back at the accuracy of the estimates, even up to and including the Great Recession, Kansas was doing fine,” McNichol says.

“The thing that changed was this really large tax cut, this big policy change.”

In 2014, McNichol evaluated the estimating processes used by all 50 states. Her report says Kansas’ process is one of the best because it produces a single revenue number that the governor and lawmakers agree to use for budgeting.

“A consensus process that brings both the Legislature and the governor’s side in and also outside experts is the best way to come up with a state revenue estimate,” she says.

In some states, the governor and Legislature develop separate estimates. That, McNichol says, makes budgeting more difficult.

In Kansas, the law requires the executive and legislative branches to resolve their differences — at least on the revenue number — behind closed doors as a part of the estimating process.

Raney Gilliland, director of the Kansas Legislative Research Department, represents the Legislature in the estimating process. He says while it sometimes can be hard to reach consensus on a revenue number, the process has generally worked well.

“It can be more difficult, it can take some time,” Gilliland says.

SPRING!

The birds are chirping, the grass needs to be mowed, barbecues are being planned, and everybody has itchy, watery eyes. That must mean that spring has once again arrived in Kansas! Along with renewing everybody’s interest in the outdoors, springtime also brings with it a few unwanted pests.

The most talked about pests at the Red Barn are fleas and ticks. While most of you are tired of our endless conversations on fleas and our failed attempts to drive them into extinction, some of you are asking questions about ticks.

When compared to fleas, ticks have a complicated life cycle. A tick can feed off of several different hosts (bobcats, deer, coyotes, etc.) during their lifetime. This is important information to know when selecting products to prevent their attachment and killing them once you find them on your pet.

Of all of the questions we hear, the most common is, “How do I get them off my dog once they are attached?” I have personally heard “remedies” ranging from tweezers to matches, and quite a few things in between. The adage, “A ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure” comes to mind. If we can prevent ticks from attaching to your pet, we can prevent the skin irritation caused by their physical attachment, as well as the transmission of disease. We can consequently avoid using chemicals or fire (which could easily turn into a disastrous situation) on your pet. Like many of you have heard, the risk in removing a tick is leaving the “mouth parts” embed ded in the skin, causing continued irritation. When a pet has numerous ticks attached to them, the irritation can become so great that they will skip meals and playtime just to rub and scratch.

Along with localized irritation and inflammation, ticks are known to transmit several diseases. Symptoms can range from lethargy and inappetance, to severe liver disease and death. If caught early, many tick diseases are treatable with the proper medication. If your pet has been “sick” for a few days, treatment may require hospitalization in order to give them the greatest chance of survival. We know that many of you may feel embarrassed if we find ticks on your pet when they come in, but it is crucial to let us know if you have pulled any ticks off of your pet recently. It only takes one tick to transmit disease, and if it was already removed before we see your pet, we may not suspect a tick-borne illness. If you have started checking yourself or family members for ticks, it’s time to check your pets as well. Ticks are well adapted to many types of environments, but seem to prefer thick vegetation and wooded areas. Take the time to stop by the Red Barn and discuss which products would work best for your pets, or call our office for an appointment if you suspect that your pet has become ill because of a tick bite. The best way to prevent a tick-borne disease is to prevent them from attaching to your pet in the first place, and we can help you decide which product would work the best at keeping your pets protected. Your pets will appreciate your efforts to put ticks on the “endangered species” list!

Jennie June Broly eventually was referred to in the press as the mother of women’s clubs. She died of heart failure in 1901 at the age of 72.

The Iola Sorosis club was organized and federated in 1906, with the motto of “‘Tis the mind that makes the body rich.”

Financial Focus Should You Change Your Investment Mix Over Time?

To be successful at investing, some people think they need to “get in on the ground floor” of the next “big thing.” However, instead of waiting for that one “hot” stock that may never come along, consider creating an asset allocation – a mix of investments – that’s appropriate for your needs, goals and risk tolerance.

But once you have such a mix, should you keep it intact forever, or will you need to make some changes? And if so, when?

To begin with, why is asset allocation important?

Different types of investments – growth stocks, income-producing stocks, international stocks, bonds, government securities, real estate investment trusts, and so on – have unique characteristics, so they rarely rise or fall at the same time. Thus, owning a mix of investments can help reduce the forces of market volatility. (Keep in mind, though, that allocation does not ensure a profit or protect against loss.) Your particular mix will depend on your investment time horizon, comfort with risk, and financial goals.

When you are young, and starting out in your career, you may want your asset allocation to be more heavily weighted toward stocks and stock-based investments. Stock investments historically have provided the greatest returns over the long term – although, as you’ve probably heard, past performance can’t guarantee future results – and you will need this growth potential to help achieve your long-term goals, such as a comfortable retirement.

Stocks also carry a greater degree of investment risk, including the risk of losing principal, but when you have many years to invest, you have time to potentially overcome the inevitable short-term declines.

Once you reach the middle-to-later stages of your career, you may have achieved some of your goals that required wealth accumulation, such as sending your children to college. However, what is likely your biggest long-term goal – retirement – still awaits you, so you may not want to scale back too much on your stocks and other growth-oriented investments.

Nonetheless, including an allocation to bonds can help to reduce some of the volatility of the stock portion of your portfolio.

Now, fast forward to just a few years before you retire. At this point, you may want to lower your overall risk level, because, with retirement looming, you don’t have much time to bounce back from downturns – and you don’t want to start withdrawing from your retirement accounts when your portfolio is already going down. So, now may be the time to add bonds and other fixed-income investments.

Again, though, you still need some growth opportunities from your investments – after all, you could be retired for two, or even three decades.

Finally, you’re retired. At this point, you should adjust your asset allocation to include enough income-producing investments – bonds, certificates of deposit, perhaps dividend-paying stocks – to help you enjoy the retirement lifestyle you’ve envisioned.

Yet, you can’t forget that the cost of living will likely rise throughout your retirement. In fact, at a modest 3% inflation rate, the price of goods will more than double after 25 years. So even during retirement, you need your portfolio to provide some growth potential to help you avoid losing purchasing power.

By being aware of your asset allocation, and by making timely adjustments as necessary, you can provide yourself with the opportunities for growth and income that you will need throughout your life.

Caney: 4-day week Continued from A1

Bud Vargas said in a written statement.

“A variety of unfortunate circumstances led to the current situation, but make no mistake, years of educational cuts have left us hanging on by a thread to make ends meet,” Vargas said in the written statement. “We are one of several districts who have had to make decisions to end school early and modify the school day due to financial reasons, and we will not be the last to do so. We can only hope that we receive better news in the future regarding the state of school funding in Kansas.”

Vargas said each canceled school day could save the district at least $7,500. Vargas said the four-day school week is a short-term solution that will allow the district to finish this budget year without having to use its dwindling reserves.

Other school districts are considering schedule changes to reduce costs as the state grapples with a multimillion dollar budget deficit and pressure on education funding. Gov. Sam Brownback earlier this month signed a

The Iola Register

school funding bill that redistributes $83 million in aid for the state’s 286 school districts for the next school year.

That came after the Kansas Supreme Court ruled in February that Kansas’ education funding was unfair to poorer districts. Justices threatened to close state schools if lawmakers didn’t address the problem by June 30.

The high court will hear oral arguments on whether the new education funding law is constitutional on May 10.

Jim Freeman, chief financial officer for Wichita schools, said the district of more than 51,000 students also could end the school year early, which would save at least $250,000 a day. His staff also might propose lengthening the school day but shortening the academic year for 201617.

“That is being discussed: Could we let school out a day or so early? That’s part of the analysis, but we’re not there yet,” he said.

Wichita district leaders tentatively approved several cuts last week and will discuss more reductions, which could include staff reductions or program cuts, on Monday.

Criminal charges expected in Flint water crisis LANSING, Mich.

(AP) — Michigan’s attorney general will announce criminal charges today against two state regulators and a Flint employee, alleging wrongdoing related to the city’s lead-tainted water crisis, according to government officials.

The charges — the first levied in a probe that is expected to broaden — will be filed against a pair of state Department of Envi-

ronmental Quality officials and a local water treatment plant supervisor, two officials told The Associated Press late Tuesday. They spoke on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the investigation publicly.

The felony and misdemeanor charges include violating Michigan’s drinking water law, official misconduct, destruction of utility property and ev-

idence tampering, according to one official.

For nearly 18 months after Flint’s water source was switched while the city was under state financial management, residents drank and bathed with improperly treated water that coursed through aging pipes and fixtures, releasing toxic lead. Republican Gov. Rick Snyder announced in October that the city would return from the Flint Riv-

er to its earlier source of treated water, the Detroit municipal system. But by that time, dangerously high levels of the toxic metal had been detected in the blood of some residents, including children, for whom it can cause lower IQs and behavioral problems.

The city has been under a state of emergency for more than four months, and people there are using filters and bottled water.

ties within a quarter of mile, a permanent record.

The cameras would be strategically placed, giving detailed images up to a quarter of a mile away.

The cameras would have a separate server connected by fiber optic cable and “are something pretty special,” said Prasko.

Commissioner Jim Talkington questioned whether such surveillance was overkill.

Prasko said he didn’t think so, given liability issues and proliferation of lawsuits in today’s society. The setup also would aid in fighting crime in downtown Iola.

Two less sophisticated cameras are mounted on the courthouse. One would be retained.

Bids for the proposal weren’t as complete as commissioners wanted, which led them to defer a decision to next Tuesday.

Public notice

Forecast: Grim outlook expected Continued from A1

one issued in November because tax collections have fallen short of expectations 11 of the past 12 months.

Brownback’s office said his budget director, Shawn Sullivan, would outline budget measures after the forecast is issued. The governor last month ordered immediate cuts at state universities and earlier this month delayed $93 million in contributions to pensions for public school and community college employees.

Kansas has struggled to balance its budget

since the GOP-dominated Legislature slashed personal income taxes in 2012 and 2013 at Brownback’s urging to stimulate the economy. The promised job growth hasn’t arrived, and a growing number of disillusioned Republicans want to reverse a key policy — an income tax exemption for more than 330,000 farmers and business owners — to address the state’s budget woes.

The governor so far has rejected the idea and blames sluggishness in the state’s economy on national slumps

in agriculture, energy production and aircraft manufacturing.

The state’s tax collections for the current fiscal year have fallen $81 million, or 1.9 percent, short of expectations.

If the new revenue forecast is more pessimistic as expected, the state also could have a projected deficit in its $16 billion budget for the next fiscal year, which begins July 1.

The new forecast comes a week before legislators are scheduled to return from their annual spring break to tackle budget issues.

Energy: Senate bill in the works Continued from A1

and Gary Peters dropped the Flint provision last week after a months-long standoff with Sen. Mike Lee, RUtah. Stabenow and Peters said they would seek another way to get the Flint aid package through the Senate.

Congress last approved broad energy measures in 2005 and 2007, during the George W. Bush administration.

The two laws aimed to boost U.S. energy independence by cutting reliance on imported oil, boosting

fuel economy standards for cars and imposing a mandate for ethanol in gasoline.

Since then, the U.S. energy landscape has changed dramatically, as improved drilling tech-

niques, including hydraulic fracturing, have sparked a years-long boom that has pushed the United States toward become the world’s top producer of oil and natural gas.

Trump gains big victory in New York; Clinton can relax WA S H I N G T O N (AP) — Hillary Clinton emerged from New York’s presidential primary closer to clinching the Democratic nomination and becoming the first woman to reach that milestone. Republican Donald Trump strengthened his own path to the general election with a commanding victory, but has little room for error in the states ahead.

The front-runners now hope to replicate their strong showings in New York in the cluster of Northeastern states next up on the primary calendar. Clinton was scheduled to spend today campaigning in Pennsylvania, while Trump had a rally planned in Maryland, as well as Indiana.

Following her win in New York, a jubilant Clinton made clear she was moving past her unexpectedly competitive primary battle with Bernie Sanders and setting her sights on the general

election.

“The race for the nomination is in the home stretch, and victory is in sight,” Clinton declared to cheering supporters.

She mentioned Sanders only briefly as she appealed for support from his loyal backers, and saved her toughest talk for Trump and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, deeming both “dangerous” for America.

Trump, too, is eager to move past the Republican primaries. With at least 89 of New York’s 95 delegates in hand, he insisted it was “impossible” for any of his rivals to catch him and warned party leaders against trying to take the nomination away from him at the convention.

Ohio Gov. John Kasich won at least three New York delegates; Texas Sen. Ted Cruz was in danger of getting shut out. Neither has a mathematical chance of clinching the nomina-

more than “a politician winning his home state,” then implored Republicans to unite around his candidacy.

“We must unite the Republican Party because doing so is the first step in uniting all Delegates Americans,” Cruz said.

supporters in New York said that they would definitely or probably vote for Clinton if she is the party’s pick.

Sanders energized young people and liberals in New York, as he has across the country, but it wasn’t enough to pull off the upset victory he desperately needed to change the trajectory of the Democratic race.

Still, the Vermont senator vowed to keep competing.

“We’ve got a shot to victory,” Sanders said in an interview with The Associated Press.

However, his senior adviser, Tad Devine, said later that the campaign planned to “sit back and assess where we are” after a string of contests next week.

Of the 247 Democratic delegates at stake in New York, Clinton picked up at least 135 while Sanders gained at least 104.

Trump needed a strong showing in New

York to keep alive his chances of sewing up the GOP nomination before the party’s July convention — and to quiet critics who say the long primary season has exposed big deficiencies in his campaign effort.

Having spent months relying on a slim staff, Trump has started hiring more seasoned campaign veterans.

Cruz is trying to stay close enough in the delegate count to push the GOP race to a contested convention. His campaign feels confident that it’s mastered the complicated process of lining up individual delegates who could shift their support to the Texas senator after a first round of convention balloting.

Kasich, the only other Republican left in the race, bested Cruz on Tuesday and is refusing to end his campaign despite winning only his home state.

OSAWATOMIE — Ethan Scheibmeir knew he had a tough matchup in front of him on Tuesday when he squared off with Osawatomie ace and Emporia State commit Derek Manes.

Scheibmeir and his offense rose to the occasion and knocked off the Trojan star. Iola took game one 4-2 and followed that up with a 9-4 win in the second game.

“He pitched against us last year and shut us down,” Scheibmeir said. “I knew I had to throw one of my best games.”

Scheibmeir got his team on the board

OSAWATOMIE — It was the story of two very different games for the Iola Fillies in Osawatomie on Tuesday, but both contests ended with the most important box checked: a win.

The first game was a 9-1 blowout victory for the Fillies. Pitcher Sierra Snavely controlled the game from the pitcher’s circle and the Trojans were unable to mount any offense until they finally scored in the bottom of the seventh inning.

The second game was a different story for the freshman.

Major League Baseball: Royals 8, Tigers 6

Perez lifts Royals past Tigers KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The first question posed to Royals manager Ned Yost after an 8-6 victory over the Detroit Tigers on Tuesday night had to do with the continued struggles of high-priced, late-inning reliever Joakim Soria.

Yost responded by praising Salvador Perez, who hit a three-run homer and had a career-high five RBIs, and the performance of Yordano Ventura, who twice escaped bases-loaded jams in five shaky innings.

Eventually, Yost conceded that Soria has “started off a little slow.”

The rest of the Royals have made up for it.

“We’re going to play hard until the last out,” said Perez, who had a two-out, two-run double in the third before his two-out shot in the fifth gave Kansas City an 8-2 lead. “We’re always going to play hard.”

Especially after the Ti-

Sushi alert: Grim outlook for bluefin tuna TOKYO (AP) — The latest scientific assessment paints a likely bleak future for the Pacific bluefin tuna, a sushi lovers’ favorite whose population has dropped by more than 97 percent from its historic levels.

A draft summary of a report by the International Scientific Committee for Tuna and Tuna-like Species in the North Pacific Ocean seen by The Associated Press shows the current population of bluefin tuna is estimated at 2.6 percent of its “unfished” size. A previous assessment put the population at an already dire 4.2 percent.

Overfishing has continued despite calls to reduce catches to allow the species to recover. In some areas, bluefin tuna is harvested at triple the levels considered to be sustainable.

Limits imposed after the previous estimates actually allowed some countries to up their catches, she said.

The independent scientists who compiled the report said improved data make them more confident in their latest estimates than in previous ones. The report is due to be reviewed by the committee in July.

The report estimated that in 2014, the total recruitment level of the fish, or the percentage of new fish that survive each year, was below 3.7 million fish, the second lowest level ever.

Under current levels of reproduction and management of the fisheries in the Pacific, the likelihood of rebuilding stocks to healthy levels is only 0.1 percent, the report says.

Japanese eat about 80 percent of all bluefin tuna

caught worldwide, and stocks of all three bluefin species — the Pacific, Southern and Atlantic — have fallen over the past 15 years as demand for the luscious, buttery pink-to-red fleshed fish has soared globally.

Organizations charged with helping to manage bluefin fisheries have set a goal of rebuilding the species’ population to 6.4 percent, or 42,592 metric tons, of unfished levels by 2024.

But 6.4 percent levels for a species like the Pacific bluefin, which can live for up to 40 years, are no guarantee of a recovery.

Many experts believe 20 percent of historic levels is the minimum size for a sustainable fishery.

A next step by conservationists could include efforts to get Pacific bluefin tuna banned from international trading.

Mustangs: Pitching, defense lead to sweep in Osawatomie Continued from B1

in the first frame. After Derek Bycroft led-off with a double, the Iola ace knocked in his teammate with a single to give the Mustangs a 1-0 lead.

From there, Scheibmeir took over on the mound. The junior allowed only two hits over the first six innings against the Trojans.

“My off-speed (pitches) were great,” Scheibmeir said. “My changeup really kept them off balance.”

Iola tacked on another run in the third inning as Scheibmeir came around to score the team’s second run.

Scheibmeir benefited from strong defensive plays around him all evening. The biggest one came in the bottom of the fifth.

Osawatomie No. 2 hitter Cody Hazlett was at the plate with two outs and got ahold of a Scheibmeir delivery, sending the ball into the gap in right-center field.

Senior Brett Taylor got a good jump from his position in center field.

As the ball started to fall toward the ground, Taylor jumped into the air, stretching his glove up toward the ball.

Taylor crashed to the earth and the ball sank into the leather of his glove.

Right fielder Garrett Wade looked down at

With Ben Cooper back at shortstop after returning from an illness,

the Mustang defense is much more set than it had been in recent weeks.

“Hopefully we can stay healthy and we got all the sickness out

of the way,” Iola coach Mark Percy said.

Cooper manned shortstop in both games with Isaac Vink at second and Ethan Sigg at first base.

Bycroft and Scheib-

meir each had a start at pitcher and third base.

Senior Coleson Wiggin and sophomore Ethan Tavarez each got one start at catcher. Taylor and Keanan Badders started in center and left field in both games.

Tucker Fosha and Wade each notched a start in right.

In the sixth inning, the Mustangs took advantage of a pair of Trojan errors and Tavarez came around to score.

Second baseman Isaac Vink led off the seventh inning with a double and was able to eventually score on Coleson Wiggin’s single. That run made the score 4-0 entering the bottom of the seventh.

The Trojan offense got to Scheibmeir in the seventh and cut the score in half to 4-2, but Scheibmeir got out of the inning and the game with the 4-2 complete-game win.

“Scheibmeir had a pretty good pitch count going into the seventh inning and then we made some errors and it blew up,” Percy said.

“He ended up throwing 110 pitches, which we didn’t want to do. He finished it though and did a good job.”

Bycroft got the game two start on the mound and started off very differently than Scheibmeir had.

Bycroft allowed the first two batters of the

game to reach and had runners at second and third with no outs.

The freshman buckled down at that point and struck out the next two batters and induced a grounder he was able to snag to end the inning and avoid any damage.

“Bycroft has been pretty steady for us all year,” Percy said. “I don’t know if he had his best stuff tonight, but he kept us where we had to be.”

Bycroft, Scheibmeir and Wiggin each scored runs in the opening frame.

“We were roping linedrives everywhere,” Bycroft said. “It was great.”

The Mustangs added additional runs in the second and fourth to build a 5-0 lead.

“Since we got started fast, I think we got into his head a little bit,” Bycroft said. “They started throwing them right down the middle.”

Osawatomie answered with a pair of runs in its half of the fourth inning.

Each team scored two runs in the sixth. Iola added two more runs in the seventh to provide the final margin of victory at 9-4.

The sweep improves Iola’s league record to 8-0 as the postseason approaches.

The Mustangs’ next varsity games are Tuesday at Parsons.

Snavely buckled down for the rest of the game from then on and didn’t allow a Trojan batter to score.

The offense finally broke through in the eighth inning as they posted an eight-run inning and rallied for the 14-12 win.

IOLA’s JUNIOR varsity picked up two wins on Tuesday as they topped Osawatomie including a game two blowout victory of 22-4.

Conor McGregor has delivered a punch on social media rather than inside a UFC cage.

One of the UFC’s top draws, McGregor created a stir when he tweeted that retirement was on the horizon and the UFC later tweeted that McGregor had been pulled from UFC 200 on July 9.

The 27-year-old McGregor tweeted, “I have decided to retire young. Thanks for the cheese. Catch ya’s later.”

McGregor was scheduled for a rematch against Nate Diaz in the main event of UFC 200.

Hawks, Spurs go up 2-0 ATLANTA (AP) — The Hawks held Boston to the lowest-scoring first quarter in the playoffs since the NBA went to the shot clock, building a 21-point lead and holding on despite an ugly shooting performance of their own for an 89-72 victory Tuesday night, giving Atlanta a 2-0 lead in the opening-round series.

Al Horford and Kyle Korver led Atlanta with 17 points apiece, but this game was essentially decided in the first 12 minutes.

The Hawks started 9 of 13 from the field, knocking down six from beyond the 3-point arc. Korver made four from long range, a big turnaround from a 1-of-10 performance in Game 1 that didn’t include any 3s. Atlanta led 24-3 just 6 1-2 minutes into the game.

Even after failing to score the rest of the period, the Hawks still led 24-7 heading to the second.

Royals: Perez drives in five Continued from B1

list to add an RBI single in support of Ventura (1-0), who allowed two runs on six hits in five innings.

“They are a very aggressive team. They like to swing at the first pitch,” said the Tigers’ Blaine Hardy, who served up Perez’s homer. “They make you change up your game plan a little bit.”

Cabrera had a pair of RBIs for Detroit, but he also struck out in his other four at-bats.

It was the first matchup between teams expected to battle all season for the AL Central, and for a while it appeared Round 1 would be a rout. The Royals scored three times in the second, stringing together hits and walks in trademark fashion, and tacked on two more runs when Perez laced his double down the leftfield line.

Meanwhile, the Tigers did little to help out Shane Greene (1-1), who allowed seven runs in 4 1-3 innings.

The Royals scored their first run when Dyson singled to left in the second, but Kendrys Morales should have been out at the plate — the throw from Justin Upton easily beat him. The only problem was Saltalamacchia whiffed on a one-hopper, allowing Morales to chug right past him for the run.

The Tigers’ offense was almost as bad as their defense, stranding 12 runners on base.

Cabrera and Martinez were baffled by Ventura with the bases loaded in the third. Then, when they seemed to get something going in the fifth, Mike Aviles slapped a routine fly ball to right field to leave three more on base.

the rest of Kansas City’s bullpen struggled through the final four, helping Ventura earn his first win of the season and improve to 5-0 in six career starts against Detroit.

“We’re fighting back, but we’re not quite getting it,” Saltalamacchia said. “At the same time, we’re not quitting.”

from the same club, while the Tigers brought Hardy off the DL and designated RHP Logan Kensing for assignment.

WEEKLY SPECIALS $ 699

STATS AND STREAKS

Morales had two singles, a walk and was hit by a pitch. He’s reached base in nine consecutive at-bats against Detroit dating to last season. ... The Royals’ Eric Hosmer had a double in the fifth, extending his on-base streak to 21 games. ... Cabrera’s double gave him 1,451, tying Jim Rice for 61st in major league history.

TRAINER’S ROOM

Dyson started in RF for Kansas City hours after being reinstated from the DL. The speedster had been rehabbing at Triple-A Omaha after straining his oblique in the first game of spring training.

UP NEXT

Tigers RHP Jordan Zimmermann (2-0, 0.00 ERA) and Royals RHP Ian Kennedy (2-0, 0.66) meet in a matchup of free agent pitchers who have lived up to expectations so far. Zimmermann has thrown 13 scoreless innings in two starts while Kennedy has allowed one run in 13 2-3 innings.

OTHER MOVES

The Royals put RHP Dillon Gee on the paternity list after his wife gave birth to a daughter, Charlotte, on Monday. They also optioned RF Reymond Fuentes to Omaha and recalled RHP Miguel Almonte
