Sales tax battle heats up

By Scott Rothschild srothschild@ljworld.com

TOPEKA — Democrats said Friday that Gov. Sam Brownback’s call to make the 6.3 percent state sales tax permanent is a sign that his income tax cuts have endangered the state budget.

“The real budget reality is that this tax cut for the wealthy has put us into a situation where LEGISLATURE we can’t finance some of the core obligations of state government,” House Minority Leader Paul Davis of Lawrence said.

Last year, Brownback signed into law cuts in state income tax rates and elimination of income taxes for nearly 200,000 business Please see TAX, page 2A

Douglas County officials are getting ready for a major renovation project later this year, completely removing an old roof and installing a new one on the Judicial and Law Enforcement Center.

The project is expected to cost $625,000, but county commissioners agreed Wednesday not to go out for bids. Instead, the contract will go to Garland Co. of Cleveland, Ohio, a supplier that has an exclusive arrangement through an organization that offers prenegotiated contracts for a large variety of supplies and Please see ROOFING, page 2A

that missed as the buzzer sounded. “We’re right there where we wanted the game, and of course the last three minutes we didn’t do a lot of things right, which will be something we look back on and regret for a long, long time,� Self said. “But props to Michigan for making all the plays late.�

owners. This year, he has proposed more income tax cuts with the goal being the eventual elimination of the Kansas income tax.

The cuts already enacted have led to an expected budget shortfall and a scramble for revenue as Republican legislative leaders try to negotiate final spending and tax plans. “The budget reality — what we have is we have a hole for a couple of years,�

Brownback said, although he has argued the income tax cuts will improve the economy.

Brownback is pushing the Legislature to approve a bill that makes permanent the 6.3 percent state sales tax rate.

That rate was adopted in 2010 in the face of plummeting state revenue during the recession, but lawmakers made most of the increase temporary.

Under current law, the rate will decrease to 5.7 percent July 1.

Brownback said if the

Johnson missed a free throw with 12 seconds left, opening the door for Burke to send it into overtime.

Johnson committed three fouls in the first half, including one in which he made contact with Mitch McGary’s groin on a play that was ruled an unintentional flagrant foul.

Johnson committed back-to-back turnovers at the start of Michigan’s run late in regulation and committed another in overtime.

He finished with 13 points and five turnovers and did not have an assist.

Burke had 23 points, 10 assists and four turnovers.

McGary scored a gamehigh 25 points.

6.3 percent rate isn’t maintained, there may need to be further budget cuts.

The higher sales tax rate would provide approximately $260 million more per year. “Without some major cuts in a lot of places, I don’t know how else you do it,� he said.

But Democrats said they don’t plan on voting to repeal the scheduled decrease in the sales tax.

They said that would be going back on their word to Kansans. “We made a promise to the people of Kansas that it was a temporary tax and we are going to keep to that promise,� Senate Democratic Leader Anthony Hensley of Topeka said.

Democrats said what they would like to see is a re-evaluation of the income tax cuts from last year, but they conceded that won’t happen with Brownback in office and large conservative Republican majorities in the House and Senate “The ultimate solution is in the hands of the voters,� Hensley said. — Statehouse reporter Scott Rothschild can be reached at 785-423-0668.

services to state and local governments throughout the country.

The organization, U.S. Communities, founded in 1999, allows more than 55,000 local governments and educational institutions to piggyback on contracts that previously would have gone through competitive bids.

In addition to Douglas County, both the Lawrence school district and the city of Lawrence belong to U.S. Communities and have used it for a variety of projects, including contracting with Garland for roofing projects — even though Garland is typically more expensive than other suppliers. “Typically it’s higher (and) it’s got a longer warranty,� said Kirk Hinnergardt of Diamond-Everly Roofing Contractors, which installed a Garland roof on Kennedy School last year. “Their warranties are pretty user-friendly, but they are higher than everybody else.�

‘It’s very complex’ Local officials say using the cooperative arrangement for new roofing saves them time and expense, especially on large, complicated projects for which local agencies lack the in-house expertise to manage a competitive bid process. “It’s very complex when you get into it,� said Jackie Waggoner, purchasing director for Douglas County. “We’ve never taken a roof down to the deck, and that’s what we’d be doing in this case. We have all of our core 24-7 operations in that building.�

Waggoner said the alternative would have been to hire an outside project manager with expertise in roofing contracts and to have that firm interview several different roofing companies. She estimated that would have added $45,000 to $60,000 to the cost of materials and installation. ‘There’s no competition’ But Mike Greenamyre, owner of American Roofing in Leavenworth, said he believes local governments end up paying more because Garland uses what are often called “proprietary bid specifications,� meaning when it

assumption that shoppers at the store are potential marijuana growers, even though the stores are most commonly frequented by backyard gardeners who grow organically or start seedlings indoors,� the couple’s lawsuit says.

The couple filed the suit this week under the Kansas Open Records Act after Johnson County and Leawood denied their initial records requests, with Leawood saying it had no relevant records. The Hartes say the public has an interest in knowing whether the sheriff’s department’s participation in the raids was “based on a well-founded belief of marijuana use and cultivation at the targeted addresses, or whether the raids primarily served a publicity purpose.� “If this can happen to us and we are educated and have reasonable resources, how does somebody who maybe hasn’t led a perfect life supposed to be free in this country?�

Adlynn Harte said in an interview Friday.

The suit filed in Johnson County District Court said the couple and their two children — a 7-year-old daughter and 13-year-old son — were “shocked and frightened� when deputies armed with assault rifles and wearing bulletproof vests pounded on the door of their home around 7:30

a.m. last April 20. “It was just like on the cops TV shows,� Robert Harte told The Associated Press. “It was like ‘Zero Dark Thirty’ ready to storm the compound.�

During the sweep, the court filing said, the Hartes were told they had been under surveillance for months, but the couple “know of no basis for conducting such surveillance nor do they believe such surveillance would have produced any facts supporting the issuance of a search warrant.�

Harte said he built the hydroponic garden with his son a couple of years ago. He said they didn’t use the powerful light bulbs that are sometimes used to grow marijuana and that the family’s electricity usage didn’t change dramatically. Changes in utility usage can sometimes lead authorities to such operations.

When law enforcement arrived, the family had just six plants — three tomato plants, one melon plant and two butternut squash plants — growing in the basement, Harte said.

The suit also said deputies “made rude comments� and implied their son was using marijuana.

A drug-sniffing dog was brought in to help, but deputies ultimately left after providing a receipt stating, “No items taken.�

“

Our strongest desire is to always competitively bid projects, but sometimes we can get as good of a project, or better, through other selection means.� — City Manager David Corliss

only hires local contractors who are approved to install the company’s products, and they only use Garland’s name-brand materials, even when equivalents are available from other suppliers.

The result, he said, is that the only thing being competitively bid on a local project is the cost of the labor.

Greenamyre was upset recently when he was unable to bid on roofing projects with the Lawrence school district because it is using the U.S. Communities master contract with Garland for a number of upcoming roof projects at Lawrence High School and Schwegler School. “So the school district takes the low bid of the labor,� he said. “Then they go to the material column that nobody gets to see.

There’s no competition in this. So the salesman of the product goes down and says, ‘We’re going to need this many rolls of this, and this many rolls of that,’ and they add it all up. And if they’re over budget, they just discount it until it’s right to the budget.�

Matter of preference But Kyle Hayden, assistant superintendent for business and operations for the Lawrence schools, said that’s how many roofing companies operate. “Garland’s not the only one doing it,� Hayden said. “Their competitors are doing the same thing.

It’s just a matter of district preference a lot of times.�

Hayden said that since 2004, the school district has used U.S. Communities contracts for a wide range of big-ticket items, ranging from computers and telecommunications equipment to office supplies — even the artificial turf on high school football fields.

He said the district has no hard and fast rules about when it uses U.S. Communities as opposed to seeking competitive bids. “I think it just depends on preferences a lot of times, and sometimes history plays into that and what you’ve had success with, and what you

may not have had success with.�

But Hayden said he doubts that the district will use the U.S. Communities contracts much on projects that would be funded through the proposed $92.5 million bond issue that will be voted on Tuesday because that’s a large enough set of projects to justify hiring an outside project manager to handle the bidding.

Lawrence City Manager David Corliss said the decision often comes down to balancing the desire to get competitive bids whenever possible with a desire to get products or services that are known to have strong track records. “Our strongest desire is to always competitively bid projects, but sometimes we can get as good of a project, or better, through other selection means,� he said.

Earlier this year, a bill was introduced in the Kansas Legislature to prohibit local governments from using proprietary bid specifications.

Senate Bill 150 was a response to one of the recommendations from Gov. Sam Brownback’s School Efficiency Task Force. It would have prohibited local governments from using bid specifications that favored one product or manufacturer by setting unreasonable requirements. That bill, however, did not pass out of the Senate Committee on Ethics, Elections and Local Government.

SATURDAY COLUMN

KU mission should include helping grads find jobs

By Dolph C. Simons Jr.

Kansas University commencement exercises are two months away, on Sunday, May 19. It would be interesting to know what percentage of the graduates have jobs lined up that tie in with their studies at the university.

A substantial number of the men and women may be considering graduate studies, and there will be those who choose to enter one of the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s military branches.

But how about the rest of them â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the majority who spent four years on Mount Oread taking advantage of the many services provided by KU to prepare them for rewarding careers following their stroll down Campanile Hill and into Memorial Stadium?

A large number of parents and friends of upcoming graduates probably are asking the same question. Hopefully, the years as a student at KU have been enjoyable, but now it is time to get to work. Granted, a large number of these graduates already are working because

they have had to have jobs during their school years to help their families pay the increasing costs of a higher education.

Many of the graduates will be leaving the classrooms with a large financial debt.

But, again, the question of what percentage of the graduates, other than those going to graduate school or the military, have a firm commitment for a job after they turn in their robes and mortarboards?

The reason for asking this question is to raise another question: How good a job does the university do or how much emphasis does it place on working with students to find employment after their formal schooling?

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one thing for KU to provide a stimulating academic environment for young men and women, but shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t there also be a desire to do what the school can to find jobs for its graduates? Or do some believe the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s job is done once a student receives his or her degree, after which the student is on his own? With the universityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mes-

How much attention is given to counseling, working with students about their career goals, discussing the pros and cons of various business or career fields, helping students develop ties with potential employers and setting up interviews?

COMMENTARY Shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t there be some correlation between teaching and inspiring students and the success of these students in finding meaningful employment in fields related to their studies?

Alumni and friends of the university, faculty members, administrators, parents, students, members of the Kansas Board of Regents and the lawmakers who determine the level of public funding for state-aided schools all pay attention to various university rankings. The annual U.S. News & World Report rankings cause considerable discussion, pro and con, particularly when KU and its schools

do not measure up well with their peer institutions.

In one recent case, a KU school did not score as high as it should have in the magazineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rankings because graduates of that particular school did not have a good record of employment a year or so after graduating. A new dean took immediate action and replaced the individual who was supposed to be working with students to develop contacts with potential employers.

At the KU School of Business, there is an excellent team approach to maximize a studentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s experience in the classroom along with a well-designed plan in career services to maximize each studentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s opportunities to get a good job. This program starts the first semester a student enters the business school and continues through graduation. Students are told what is expected and are encouraged to take advantage of study abroad programs. They are counseled on how to tie their interests, skills and academic courses to potential areas of employment that are compatible with

their academic work and they are schooled on how to present themselves in job interviews.

Hopefully, this could become a model for other schools within the university.

At a time when state-aided universities are desperate to increase state funding, it would seem logical for lawmakers, taxpayers and regents to look more favorably on fiscal requests from universities with high student retention rates and high graduation numbers and whose graduates are in high demand by various employers.

Schools that get results, both in the classroom and in the work force, are sure to be favored both by state tax dollars and private contributions. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a winwin program for all the players â&#x20AC;&#x201D; students, faculty members, parents, alumni, friends, the university and the state.

Again, how many students participating in upcoming commencement ceremonies have solid job commitments?

And what could and should be done to improve these numbers?

The threat of inclement weather has caused the city of Lawrence to move its Easter egg hunts scheduled for today.

The cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s longtime Egg Hunt Eggstravaganza is being moved indoors to the two Hy-Vee Food and Drug Stores in the city at 3504 Clinton Parkway and 4000 W. Sixth St. The event will

â&#x20AC;˘ A 24-year-old Lawrence man was arrested on suspicion of aggravated battery and drunken driving early Friday morning after allegedly striking a pedestrian with his car, according to police.

William Andrew Weideman was arrested after police responded to a report of a pedestrian struck by a car about 12:30 a.m. Friday in the 500 block of Alabama Street, said Sgt. Trent McKinley, a Lawrence Police Department spokesman.

When police arrived, the vehicle had left the scene but was stopped by other officers in the 1800 block of Barker Avenue. Witnesses told police that the pedestrian and driver had been in an argument before the driver got in the car, backed up, and drove forward into the pedestrian deliberately, McKinley said. The pedestrian declined medical treatment at the scene.

Weideman, the driver, was booked into Douglas County Jail on suspicion of aggravated battery and DUI. He remained in custody Friday afternoon, with bond not yet set. â&#x20AC;˘ Lawrence police investigating an injury accident near 23rd and Rhode Island streets closed East 23rd Street to westbound traffic for about three hours Friday.

The accident occurred about noon Friday, and as police worked at the accident scene, they closed the westbound lanes between Barker Avenue and Massachusetts Street.

Sgt. Trent McKinley, a Lawrence Police Department spokesman, said the accident involved three westbound vehicles, and one driver was taken by ambulance to the hospital.

McKinley said that driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s condition hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been released.

He urged motorists to be cautious in that area, which

and another $5.7 million to expand career and technical education programs for high school students.

To put the size of the bond issue in perspective, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nearly four times larger than the $25 million the city of Lawrence plans to spend building a new recreation center â&#x20AC;&#x201D; described as the largest city-funded construction project in many years.

And itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two and a half times larger than the districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 1994 bond issue for $36.9 million that was used to build Free State High School.

Compared with recent bond issues by other school districts, state officials say the Lawrence districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bond proposal is on the upper end of the scale. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s above average because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an above-average (size) school district,â&#x20AC;? said Dale Dennis, the state deputy education commissioner for school finance.

He noted that in 2012 the Blue Valley school district in Johnson County issued $271 million in bonds. And the largest in recent memory was a $284.5 million bond issue for the Wichita school district in 2000.

Indications so far point to fairly broad public support for the Lawrence bond proposal.

A survey that the Lawrence school board commissioned last fall, before it voted to put the bond issue on the ballot, showed solid majority support for the concepts contained in the bond issue: 54 percent supported upgrading all 14 elementary schools; 58 percent favored districtwide technology improvements; 58 percent approved of expanding career and technical education; and 69 percent supported improving school security.

The Lawrence Chamber of Commerce has publicly endorsed the ballot measure. And a political action committee called Yes for Lawrence led by Democratic Rep. Paul Davis and Republican Insurance Commissioner Sandy Praeger reportedly raised about $15,000 for a campaign to convince voters to vote yes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We feel pretty good about the chances that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll pass,â&#x20AC;? Davis said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The comments seem very positive from the people Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve talked to in the community.

And I know a lot of people on the campaign have been out knocking on doors and going to different events trying to promote the bond issue, and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re generally getting very positive responses from people.â&#x20AC;?

The most visible opposition has come from the conservative political action group Americans for Prosperity â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Kansas. Jim

L AWRENCE J OURNAL -W ORLD Mullins, an organizer for that group, said at a recent forum that he supports the career and technical education piece, but believes the district has excessive fund balances that it could use instead of asking voters for more bonding authority.

In December, the sevenmember board voted unanimously to put the bond issue on the ballot. And all four of the candidates running for seats on the board say they strongly support it.

Impact on taxes District officials and supporters of the bond issue have promoted it as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;no tax increase bond,â&#x20AC;? meaning if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s approved, it will not result in a property tax increase.

Officials say thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s possible because the bonds would be issued in phases over the next three years at the same time the district is retiring some older bonds. The plan would be comparable to a family buying a new car at the same time their loan on an older car is paid off, resulting in the family continuing to pay out the same amount of money for monthly car payments.

Others have argued that it nevertheless would constitute a tax increase because without the new bonds the taxes levied by the district for debt service payments would go down.

The districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s current budget includes a tax levy of 10.624 mills in property tax for its bond and interest fund. A mill is $1 of tax for every $1,000 in assessed valuation.

In Kansas, residential property is assessed at 11.5 percent of its fair market value. So the owner of a home valued at $100,000 pays taxes on $11,500 of that value. Thus, that owner pays $11.50 for each mill of property tax levied. That translates to $122.18 for the school districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 10.624-mill bond and interest levy.

School board members concede, however, that the mill levy is sometimes influenced by factors beyond the boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s control. For example, property values in the district could go up or down from one year to the next. And the district does not yet know exactly what interest rate it will have to pay on any new debt.

But board member Shannon Kimball said at a recent forum that even if the bond and interest levy were forced to increase, the board could offset that by cutting the mill levy for its â&#x20AC;&#x153;capital outlayâ&#x20AC;? fund, a separate fund used to pay for routine bigticket expenses such as roof and furnace replacements or new computers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re committed to making sure that those adjustments maintain our commitment that this be a no-tax-increase bond issue,â&#x20AC;? Kimball said.

Bonds instead of school closures The public debate leading up to the bond proposal actually began around 2009 when the state of Kansas began cutting school funding in response to the economic downturn.

Enrollment projections at that time were forecasting declining numbers in some older schools in central and east Lawrence where it was felt that some buildings were already underutilized.

In 2010, the board established a community task force to make recommendations about how the districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s elementary schools should be configured in the future. The final report from that group recommended consolidating six elementary schools in east and central Lawrence into three or four.

The schools involved included Sunset Hill, Hillcrest, Pinckney, Cordley, Kennedy and New York.

That report also called for issuing bonds to refurbish the three or four buildings that would remain.

Meanwhile, the district did close Wakarusa Valley School, and it closed the East Heights Early Childhood Family Center, moving the districtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s preschool program into Kennedy School.

The board then formed a Consolidation Working Group, made up of community members and staff mainly from those schools to come up with a specific plan for carrying out those recommendations.

In February 2012, however, that group recommended not closing any buildings and instead issuing bonds to upgrade and modernize all 14 elementary schools.

Since then, the school board has not looked back, and in December the board voted unanimously to put the $92.5 million bond proposal on the ballot.

That decision still raises questions by some in the community who say the district should not have taken closure and consolidation completely off the table.

But board member Rick Ingram, responding to one such question at last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s town hall meeting, said there was little to be gained by that idea because operating one large building does not cost substantially less than operating two smaller ones. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The only way you get any operational savings is if you lay off teachers,â&#x20AC;?

Ingram said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you want to lay off teachers, you increase class sizes. You can get some administrative savings if you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t lay off teachers, but youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re talking about a lot of high-risk kids, low-income kids, and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to need a whole lot more services.â&#x20AC;?

Fewer abortions reported in Kansas in 2012 KU

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 3A

By John Hanna Associated Press

TOPEKA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Abortions declined last year in Kansas by about 5.4 percent and dropped to their lowest number in 25 years, the state Department of Health and Environment reported Friday.

Advocates on both sides of the debate said the decrease can be tied to the Legislatureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ongoing approval of tougher abortion restrictions, including multiple new laws enacted since Republican Gov. Sam Brownback, a strong abortion opponent, took office in January 2011.

None of the new restrictions â&#x20AC;&#x201D; or additional proposals being considered this year by legislators â&#x20AC;&#x201D; is as tough as a new North Dakota law banning most abortions as early as 6 weeks. But Kansans for Life, the most influential anti-abortion group at the Statehouse, has urged lawmakers to avoid headlinegrabbing measures likely to

be challenged in court in favor of incremental changes.

Kansans for Life Executive Director Mary Kay Culp said the decline in abortions last year shows the approach advocated by the group is working.

The health department wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t speculate on why abortions continue to decline. Culp said she believes other important factors in the decline are the work of dozens of pregnancy crisis centers and the state health department posting detailed information about fetal development on its website. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That is good news for women and unborn babies,â&#x20AC;? Culp said.

The health department said doctors reported 7,457 abortions last year, or 428 fewer than the 7,885 terminated pregnancies reported in 2011. The number hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been that low since 1987, when doctors reported 6,409 abortions â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and that was before a 1995 mandate that physicians and medi-

cal facilities report each time they terminate a pregnancy.

Abortions peaked at 12,422 in 2001 and have declined 40 percent since.

Elise Higgins, lobbyist for the Kansas chapter of the National Organization for Women, pointed to a requirement that women wait 24 hours after consulting a physician to obtain an abortion and a law enacted in 2011 restricting private health insurance coverage for elective abortions. She said Kansas now has a political environment â&#x20AC;&#x153;really hostileâ&#x20AC;? to abortion rights. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s decreased is womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ability to get the health care they need,â&#x20AC;?

Higgins said.

Culp cited changes in the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;informed consentâ&#x20AC;? law, directing doctors to provide certain information to patients before performing abortions, and a requirement enacted in 2011 that doctors get written consent from parents or guardians

before a minor can have an abortion.

The state Senate plans to debate a bill Monday that blocks tax breaks for abortion providers and patients, prohibits abortion providers from supplying materials or instructors for public schoolsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; sex education classes, spells out in greater detail what information doctors must provide to patients and declares that life begins â&#x20AC;&#x153;at fertilizationâ&#x20AC;? and is worth protecting.

The House has approved the measure and if senators make no changes, it will go to Brownback.

Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still being debated is how much the drop in abortions can be attributed to the May 2009 murder of abortion provider Dr. George Tiller by a man professing strong anti-abortion views. Tillerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s clinic in Wichita was among a few in the U.S. known to specialize in late-term abortions; it has remained closed after his death.

NWS expands severe weather warnings

By Kyle Potter Associated Press

ST. PAUL, MINN. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Residents of Sumner County, Kansas, received a dire warning last year as a tornado barreled through toward Wichita: Get underground or into a shelter â&#x20AC;&#x201D; or else. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mass devastation is highly likely, making the area unrecognizable to survivors,â&#x20AC;? the National Weather Service cautioned last April.

In an effort to get people to safety quickly, the National Weather Service said Friday that it will expand its retooled severe weather warning system in Kansas, Missouri and 12 more Midwestern states.

Starting Monday, it will provide media outlets and emergency services with more detail about the strength of a brewing tornado or thunderstorm, what it may hit and when.

The system will also detail possible hazards and impacts of any potential tornado based on radar data, and more information on less severe but still â&#x20AC;&#x153;considerableâ&#x20AC;? storms.

Mike Hudson, an NWS meteorologist in Kansas City, Mo., said alerts with words such as â&#x20AC;&#x153;catastrophicâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;destructionâ&#x20AC;? will likely be rare â&#x20AC;&#x201D; once a year in Kansas and twice a decade in northern states like Minnesota. The words will be reserved for â&#x20AC;&#x153;those types of tornadoes

that ultimately take lives, so we want to ring the bell a little bit louder,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When we use them, you ought to pay attention,â&#x20AC;? he said.

The weather service started its expanded warning pilot in Kansas and Missouri last year after researchers found that Joplin, Mo., residents didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get a strong enough warning about the May 2011 tornado. It killed 161 people, injured hundreds more and destroyed thousands of homes and buildings. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nothing in that warning really stood out that said â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;this is a lot higher riskâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; than a typical warning might be,â&#x20AC;? Hudson said.

Just a handful of alerts were issued in the twostate region last year, Hudson said, but followup surveys found the heightened warnings improved response time, so the weather service decided to expand the pilot to the rest of the Midwest.

With that expansion, they will start including more information about when a tornado is expected to arrive. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Even though we are coming up with this system for the larger tornadoes, the public should still be aware that they should take extra steps when any tornado warning is actually issued,â&#x20AC;? Zaleski said.

In about four years, he said, he hopes for the total number to reach about 30,000, which is roughly the height it reached in 2008.

KU leaders have said theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve increased their focus on recruitment, including the introduction of a new slate of four-year renewable scholarships for incoming freshmen.

Pope prays at rite N. Korea threat may be more bark than bite recalling Mideast ANALYSIS

By Jean H. Lee

Associated Press

SEOUL, SOUTH KOREA â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Across North Korea, soldiers are gearing up for battle and shrouding their jeeps and vans with camouflage netting. Newly painted signboards and posters call for â&#x20AC;&#x153;death to the U.S. imperialistsâ&#x20AC;? and urge the people to fight with â&#x20AC;&#x153;arms, not words.â&#x20AC;?

But even as North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is issuing midnight battle cries to his generals to ready their rockets, he and his millionman army know full well that a successful missile strike on U.S. targets would be suicide for the outnumbered, out-powered North Korean regime.

Despite the hastening drumbeat of warfare â&#x20AC;&#x201D; seemingly bringing the region to the very brink of conflict with threats and provocations â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Pyongyang aims to force Washington to the negotiating table, pressure the new president in Seoul to change policy on North Korea, and build unity inside the communist country without triggering a full-blown war.

North Korea wants to draw attention to the tenuousness of the armistice designed to maintain peace on the Korean Peninsula, a truce Pyongyang recently announced it would no longer honor as it warned that war could break out at any time.

In July, it will be 60 years since North Korea and Chi-

UNIVERSITY STUDENTS PUNCH THE AIR as they march Friday through Kim Il Sung Square in downtown Pyongyang, North Korea. Tens of thousands of North Koreans turned out for the mass rally at the main square in Pyongyang in support of their leader Kim Jong Unâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s call to arms. na signed an armistice with the U.S. and the United Nations to bring an end to three years of fighting that cost millions of lives. The designated Demilitarized Zone has evolved into the most heavily guarded border in the world.

It was never intended to be a permanent border. But six decades later, North and South remain divided, with Pyongyang feeling abandoned by the South Koreans in the quest for reunification and threatened by the Americans.

In that time, South Korea has blossomed from a poor, agrarian nation of peasants into the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 15th largest economy while North Korea is struggling to find a way out of a Cold War chasm that has left it with a per capita income on par with sub-Saharan Africa.

The Chinese troops who fought alongside the North Koreans have long since left.

But 28,500 American troops are still stationed in South Korea and 50,000 more are in nearby Japan. For weeks, the U.S. and South Korea have been showing off their military might with a series of joint exercises that Pyongyang sees a rehearsal for invasion.

On Thursday, the U.S. military confirmed that those drills included two nuclear-capable B-2 stealth bombers that can unload the U.S. Air Forceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest conventional bomb â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a 30,000-pound super bunker buster â&#x20AC;&#x201D; powerful enough to destroy North Koreaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s web of underground military tunnels.

It was a flexing of military muscle by Washington, perhaps aimed not only at Pyongyang but at

Beijing as well.

In Pyongyang, Kim Jong Un reacted swiftly, calling an emergency meeting of army generals and ordering them to be prepared to strike if the U.S. actions continue. A photo distributed by North Koreaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s official Korean Central News Agency showed Kim in a military operations room with maps detailing a â&#x20AC;&#x153;strike planâ&#x20AC;? behind him in a very public show of supposedly sensitive military strategy.

North Korea cites the U.S. military threat as a key reason behind its need to build nuclear weapons, and has poured a huge chunk of its small national budget into defense, science and technology. In December, scientists launched a satellite into space on the back of a long-range rocket using technology that could easily be converted for missiles; in February, they tested an underground nuclear device as part of a mission to build a bomb they can load on a missile capable of reaching the U.S. However, what North Korea really wants is legitimacy in the eyes of the U.S. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and a peace treaty.

Pyongyang wants U.S. troops off Korean soil, and the bombs and rockets are more of an expensive, dangerous safety blanket than real firepower. They are the only real playing card North Korea has left, and the bait they hope will bring the Americans to the negotiating table.

VATICAN CITY (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Pope Francis praised the â&#x20AC;&#x153;friendship of so many Muslim brothersâ&#x20AC;? during the Good Friday procession that re-enacts Jesus Christâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s crucifixion and this year was dedicated to the plight of Christians in the Middle East.

The nighttime Way of the Cross procession at Romeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Colosseum is one of the most dramatic rituals of Holy Week, when Christians commemorate the death and resurrection of Christ. With torches lighting the way, the faithful carried the cross to different stations where meditations and prayers were read out recalling the final hours of Christâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life.

This year, the meditations read out were composed by young Lebanese faithful. Many of the prayers referred to the plight of Mideast Christians and called for an end to â&#x20AC;&#x153;violent fundamental-

ism,â&#x20AC;? terrorism and the â&#x20AC;&#x153;wars and violence which in our days devastate various countries in the Middle East.â&#x20AC;?

Francis, who became pope just weeks ago, chose, however, to stress Christiansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; positive relations with Muslims in the region in his brief comments at the end of the ceremony.

He recalled Benedict XVIâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2012 visit to Lebanon when â&#x20AC;&#x153;we saw the beauty and the strong bond of communion joining Christians together in that land and the friendship of our Muslim brothers and sisters and so many others,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That occasion was a sign to the Middle East and to the whole world: a sign of hope.â&#x20AC;?

Before becoming pope, Francis was Cardinal Jorge Mario Bergoglio, and he long cultivated warm relations with Muslim leaders in his native Argentina.

How do you think Jesus faced his own torture and death with such resolve?

He understood Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s purpose The Rev. Kent WintersHazelton, pastor, First Presbyterian Church, 2415 Clinton Parkway: Jesus of Nazareth was executed on the order of the local Roman governor for the charge of treason around the year 30 CE. He was not alone. According to the 1st century historian Josephus, the Roman powers executed tens of thousands of people in the occupied territories of Palestine and the surrounding countries of the Middle East. But it is the story of this one man that we remember. The enduring mystery of his final days â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the swift turn of events from celebration to death sentence â&#x20AC;&#x201D; has captured the attention of believers and nonbelievers alike. Moreover, his life has had a tremendous impact on the history, politics, language, art and ethics of Western Civilization.

Here was a seemingly good man, a faithful Jew and compassionate teacher of nonviolence, who suffered a horrendously unjust and violent fate.

From the evidence we derive from the Gospels of the Christian Scriptures, it is apparent that Jesus understood how his story would end. Interspersed throughout the Gospels

were his statements to his disciples that he would suffer and die for his teachings.

When he Winterswas arHazelton rested in the Garden of Gethsemane on the night before his crucifixion, his companions fled with fear into the night. But Jesus went without resistance with the soldiers. He offered no defense at his trial.

He carried his cross to his end.

Jesus understood the purpose the Holy One had for him; he believed that God had called him to bring Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s message to the world, like the prophets of the Hebrew Scriptures before him. And Jesus knew the suffering endured by Elijah and Amos and Jeremiah. Like great women and men in history who were martyrs to the greater purposes of humankind, Jesus accepted his calling and walked inevitably and resolutely toward his death â&#x20AC;Ś and his resurrection. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Send email to Kent Winters-Hazelton at fpcpastor@sunflower.com.

It was his destiny to die for us The Rev. Gary Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Flannagan, pastor, Cornerstone Southern Baptist Church, 802 W. 22nd St.: In his gospel, Luke says that â&#x20AC;&#x153;As the time approached for him to be taken up to heaven, Jesus resolutely set out for Jerusalemâ&#x20AC;? (Luke 9:51, NIV).

Jesus was determined to face his suffering and death for several reasons.

First, it was why He was born. The Apostle Peter once wrote this about Jesus: â&#x20AC;&#x153;He was chosen before the creation of the world, but was revealed in these last times for your sakeâ&#x20AC;? (1 Peter 1:20, NIV).

He was chosen, it was decided, Jesus was born to die for our sins. Why? Simply put, the grace of God. Grace is getting what we do not deserve and cannot earn; it is a gift.

Second, it was His earthly destiny to suffer and die, and he did it willingly for us. Now, I realize I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t persuade those who have decided not to believe, but to say that Jesus was just an ordinary man is to ignore the overwhelming and clear evidence of history, his life, his death and his resurrection. None of it is a myth

or a lie; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s too fantastic and history is too clear. What Jesus went through in His suffering should Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Flannagan cause us all to at least consider that he did it.

A third reason is because Jesus was obedient to the will and purpose that determined a sacrifice would be made, and the reason why it had to be made is because there was no other way for flawed people to be reconciled to our Creator.

Luke 22:41-42 (NIV) says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;He withdrew about a stoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s throw beyond them, knelt down and prayed, Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me; yet not my will, but yours be done.â&#x20AC;?

On Sunday, all around the world, Christians will celebrate the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, I hope whoever who reads this will consider Jesusâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; resolve to suffer and die, because he did it for you. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Send email to Gary Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Flannagan at gary2_1962@ yahoo.com.

Speech won’t forward peace process “I honestly believe that if any Israeli parent sat down with those (Palestinian) kids, they’d say I want these kids to succeed.”

— Barack Obama, in Jerusalem, March 21 WASHINGTON — Very true. But how does the other side feel about Israeli kids?

Consider that the most revered parent in Palestinian society is Mariam Farhat of Gaza. Her distinction? Three of her sons died in various stages of trying to kill Israelis — one in a suicide attack, shooting up and hurling grenades in a room full of Jewish students.

She gloried in her “martyr” sons, wishing only that she had 100 boys like her schoolroom suicide attacker to “sacrifice ... for the sake of God.” And for that she was venerated as “mother of the struggle,” elected to parliament and widely mourned upon her recent passing.

So much for reciprocity. In the Palestinian territories, streets, public squares, summer camps, high schools, even a kindergarten are named after suicide bombers and other mass murderers. So much for the notion that if only Israelis would care about Arab kids, peace would be possible.

Israelis have forever wanted nothing more than peace and security for all the children. That’s why they accepted the 1947 U.N. partition of British Palestine into a Jewish and Arab state. Unfortunately — another asymmetry — the Arabs said no. To this day, the Palestinians have rejected every peace offer that leaves a

Jewish state standing.

This is not ancient history. Yasser Arafat said no at Camp David in 2000 and at Taba in 2001. And in 2008, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert offered a Palestinian state on all of the West Bank (with territorial swaps) with its capital in a shared Jerusalem. Mahmoud Abbas walked away.

In that same speech, Obama blithely called these “missed historic opportunities” that should not prevent peace-seeking now.

But these “missed historic opportunities” are not random events. They present an unbroken, unrelenting pattern over seven decades of rejecting any final peace with Israel.

So what was the point of

Obama’s Jerusalem speech encouraging young Israelis to make peace, a speech the media drooled over? It was mere rhetoric, a sideshow meant to soften the impact on the Arab side of the really important event of Obama’s trip: the major recalibration of his position on the peace process.

Obama knows that peace talks are going nowhere. First, because there is no way that Israel can sanely make concessions while its neighborhood is roiling and unstable — the Muslim Brotherhood taking over Egypt, rockets being fired from Gaza, Hezbollah brandishing 50,000 missiles aimed at Israel, civil war raging in Syria with its chemical weapons and rising jihadists, and Iran threatening openly to raze Tel Aviv and Haifa.

Second, peace is going nowhere because Abbas has shown Obama over the last four years that he has no interest in negotiating. Obama’s message to Abbas was blunt: Come to the table without preconditions, i.e., without the excuse of demanding a settlement freeze first.

Obama himself had contributed to this impasse when he imposed that precondition — for the first time ever in the history of Arab-Israeli negotiations — four years ago. And when Israel responded with an equally unprecedented 10-month settlement freeze, Abbas didn’t show up to talk until more than nine months in — then walked out, never to return.

In Ramallah, Obama didn’t just address this perennial Pal-

estinian dodge. He demolished the very claim that settlements are the obstacle to peace. Palestinian sovereignty and Israeli security are “the core issue,” he told Abbas. “If we solve those two problems, the settlement problem will be solved.”

Finally. Presidential validation of the screamingly obvious truism: Any peace agreement will produce a Palestinian state with not a single Israeli settlement remaining on its territory. Any settlement on the Palestinian side of whatever border is agreed upon will be demolished. Thus, any peace that reconciles Palestinian statehood with Israeli security automatically resolves the settlement issue. It disappears.

Yes, Obama offered the ritual incantations about settlements being unhelpful. Nothing new here. He could have called them illegal or illegitimate. It wouldn’t have mattered — because Obama officially declared them irrelevant.

Exposing settlements as a mere excuse for the Palestinian refusal to negotiate — that was the news, widely overlooked, coming out of Obama’s trip. It was a breakthrough.

Will it endure? Who knows.

But when an American president so sympathetic to the Palestinian cause tells Abbas to stop obstructing peace with that phony settlement excuse, something important has happened.

Abbas, unmasked and unhappy, knows this better than anyone.

PUBLIC FORUM

Weak opposition To the editor: Though involved in the bond planning as a consultant, I write this as a parent and community member. In my opinion, Tuesday night’s school bond town hall meeting failed to present equally thoughtful arguments on both sides of the issue. One side was an argument supporting a thorough plan moving Lawrence schools forward. The other an ad hoc argument voiced on behalf of Americans for Prosperity, apparently formulated to misdirect, with little understanding of the bond process or details.

For example, the opposition’s appeal to increase teacher pay tapped into a common school funding misperception — that capital/bond dollars could be used for payroll, something state law prohibits. Its appeal for consolidation ignored three years of intensive analysis from two community groups, professional consultants, board members and district administration. Our community rejected consolidation because it’s not feasible due to cost, logistics, projected population growth and Lawrence’s commitment to our neighborhood schools. Consolidation would negatively impact our schools’ primary mission — education.

If Americans for Prosperity were really interested in improving student outcomes, it

would recognize the bond improves classroom environments, allows teachers to teach the way kids really learn and supports the district’s robust, strategic education goals.

To those considering voting no, please don’t. Your “no” vote won’t hurt an abstract entity known as the “district.” It will hurt people you see every day: our kids, teachers, homeowners, business owners, all of us. As the opposition stated, Lawrence is better than that. That’s why I hope you’ll join me and others voting “yes” on April 2.

Marcel Harmon, Lawrence

Well-defined plan To the editor: In its editorial of Sunday, March 24, “Bond reservations,” the Journal-World takes the position that the arguments in favor of the school bond are not “overwhelmingly persuasive.” The editors use misleading phrases. They claim that the bond issue “seems to be throwing money at a variety of undefined problems.” They wonder if there’s a better way “than simply to pour money into aging facilities.”

Did any of the authors of this editorial attend any of the 15 informational sessions held at schools throughout the city? Did any of the authors read “A Community Plan,” the 14-page document sent

Did any read the 14-page “Lawrence Public School News Letter” of March 2013, which was distributed as an insert in their own newspaper? It’s difficult to believe that they did. Had they, they might have realized that the district and the school board have worked tirelessly to leave as little as possible undefined. The plan details current and projected enrollment, technological needs and classroom space, right down to architectural renderings and specific budgets by school. Undefined?

This plan is absolutely comprehensive. Look at it. The Lawrence Chamber of Commerce has, and they’ve endorsed it.

has no wealth except what it takes from people in taxes. Is it worth putting your children into debt?

Thomas Jefferson said, “I place economy among the first and most important virtues, and public debt as the greatest of dangers to be feared. To preserve our independence, we must not let our rulers load us with perpetual debt. If we run into such debts, we must be taxed in our meat and drink, in our necessities and in or comforts, in our labor and in our amusements. If we can prevent the government from wasting the labor of the people, under the pretense of caring for them, they will be happy.”

Isn’t it time we listened to the truth and stopped going for the instant gratification of nice things?

Lois Ammel, Lawrence

Tax distortion To the editor: Some people are saying that the $92 million bond issue will not raise property taxes. This is misleading. Property taxes are scheduled to go down soon. The bond issue won’t increase taxes, but it will prevent taxes from going down like they’re supposed to.

Don’t believe the distortions.

If the bond issue passes, your taxes will be higher then if the bond issue doesn’t pass.

BITTER END

KANSAS GUARD BEN MCLEMORE PUTS HIS HEAD IN HIS HANDS as teammate Naadir Tharpe, background, answers a question from media members in the locker room after the Jayhawks’ 87-85 overtime loss to Michigan on Friday at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

Jayhawks falter down stretch, fall to UM

By Gary Bedore gbedore@ljworld.com

ARLINGTON, TEXAS — Elijah Johnson stood hunched over on the Cowboys Stadium basketball court, a picture of utter dejection after the final buzzer sounded in the final game of his Kansas University basketball career — Friday’s 87-85 overtime setback to Michigan in the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament.

“Stuff like this you think

about forever,” said Johnson, who scored 13 points with five turnovers and no assists in 24 memorable — many for the wrong reasons — minutes.

“It was a long, fun ride.

People usually remember the end.”

Johnson put the spotlight on himself just 1:45 into the game when he was called for a Flagrant One foul for striking Michigan’s Mitch McGary (25 points, 14 re-

bounds) in the groin area with a closed fist while trying to run past McGary.

“It wasn’t intentional,” Johnson said. “Coach (Bill Self) asked me if I did it, and I didn’t know what he was talking about.”

Johnson actually played just three minutes the entire first half because of foul problems. But he was in at the very end — on the final possession of his season and collegiate career.

Handed the ball with 9.4 seconds remaining in OT and KU down, 87-85, Johnson dribbled to the side and charged toward the goal.

Feeling his path obstructed, he didn’t try a game-tying layup or floater, but passed way out to Naadir Tharpe, who missed a prayer of a three that barely beat the buzzer.

“Coach said he wanted to put the ball in my hand. It was on me,” Johnson said.

KU’s McLemore undecided on pros

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

ARLINGTON, TEXAS — With his legs fidgeting from side to side and a blank look of shock on his face, Kansas University red-shirt freshman Ben McLemore was asked multiple times in the KU locker room whether Friday’s 87-85 overtime loss to Michigan in the Sweet 16 was his last appearance in a Kansas uniform.

His answer never changed.

“At this point, I really don’t know,” he said. “I’m kind of emotional, but I’ll sit down, talk to my mom and see what’s the deal. But at

this time I’m really not focused on it.”

McLemore, who led all Jayhawks with 20 points on 8-of-15 shooting in the loss to fourth-seeded Michigan, said he had thought little about the NBA during his first full season of college basketball even though many analysts and projections have him as a sure-fire top-five pick in this summer’s NBA Draft.

“This year, I was just focusing on playing college ball and getting better each and every day,” he said.

Asked if the outcome of Friday’s game could impact KANSAS COACH BILL SELF TRIES TO GRAB THE ATTENTION OF HIS PLAYERS Please see MCLEMORE, page 4B with little time remaining in overtime.

“I tried to turn the corner. I ended up leaving the ground.

When I left the ground, I didn’t like the shot I had, so I tried to look for a better shot.

I didn’t like my momentum.”

Tharpe, who scored two points off 1-of-8 shooting with seven assists against two turnovers in 32 minutes, said, “Yeah I was,” when asked if he was surprised when the ball came out to

Who? How? Blame it on karma ARLINGTON, TEXAS — This was the 2008 national-title game all over again, only this time it’s Kansas University licking wounds that will re-open every time somebody asks the obvious question: How did it happen?

How did Kansas lose a game it had locked up? How did it not secure a victory that would have had the Jayhawks playing Florida on Sunday, with the winner advancing to the Final Four?

How did Kansas — which held a 10-point lead with 2:22 left in regulation when Elijah Johnson drove into a lane with four defenders and 30 seconds left on the shot

Qualifier tops Houston golf HUMBLE, TEXAS — Steve Wheatcroft hates going to Monday qualifiers. He was reminded Friday why they can be worth it.

Wheatcroft ran off three straight birdies early in his round and kept bogeys off his card for a second straight 5-under 67. That gave him a one-shot lead over D.A. Points and Jason Kokrak going into the weekend at the Houston Open.

Former Kansas University golfer Gary Woodland shot a 2-under 70 and was at 2-under 142 for the tournaments, eight strokes off the lead.

Rory McIlroy also will be around, but just barely. He two-putted from 85 feet on the fringe on his 17th hole for a birdie that gave him a 70.

McIlroy made the cut on the number, though he goes into the weekend nine shots out of the lead.

Phil Mickelson also made the cut on the number after a bogey on the last hole for a 71.

Mickelson, who has played the Masters with two drivers in the bag, decided to play Redstone on Friday with two 3-woods in the bag, though one of them is so strong it acts like a driver.

Wheatcroft was at 10-under 134.

BASEBALL

Verlander agrees to 7-year deal LAKELAND, FLA. — Detroit Tigers ace Justin Verlander has agreed to a $180 million, seven-year contract, topping Felix Hernandez for the richest deal for a pitcher in baseball history.

The 2011 AL MVP and Cy Young Award winner had been signed through 2014 and set to earn $20 million in each of the next two seasons.

The new deal announced Friday keeps those salaries and adds $140 million in new guaranteed money: $28 million each season from 2015-19. It includes a $22 million option for 2020 that would become guaranteed if he finishes among the top five in 2019 Cy Young voting. The deal could be worth $202 million over eight seasons.

Verlander’s agreement topped the record for pitchers set when Hernandez and Seattle agreed in February to a $175 million, seven-year contract.

PRO FOOTBALL

Romo, Cowboys agree on extension IRVING, TEXAS — Tony Romo and the Dallas Cowboys have agreed on a six-year contract extension worth $108 million, with about half of it guaranteed.

The agreement was reported on the team’s website Friday.

The deal will lower Romo’s salary cap number of $16.8 million for 2013, giving the team more room to sign free agents and draft picks.

Romo, who turns 33 next month and was entering the final year of his contract, gets $55 million guaranteed and could be with Dallas through 2019. Super Bowl winner Joe Flacco received $52 million guaranteed in the six-year, $120.6 million contract he signed with Baltimore earlier this month.

Romo is the franchise leader in touchdown passes.

Murray reaches Sony Open final KEY BISCAYNE, FLA. — Taking advantage of a gimpy opponent, Andy Murray returned to the final of Sony Open by rallying past No. 8-seeded Richard Gasquet on Friday, 6-7 (3), 6-1, 6-2.

Murray lost a set for the first time in tournament when Gasquet played a brilliant tiebreaker. Murray’s opponent Sunday will be No. 3-seeded David Ferrer, who beat No. 15 Tommy Haas, 4-6, 6-2, 6-3.

SWEET 16 ROUNDUP

FLORIDA’S MIKE ROSARIO (3) IS PURSUED by Florida Gulf Coast’s Sherwood Brown (25) and Chase Fieler during the first half of a regional semifinal in the NCAA Tournament, Friday in Arlington, Texas. Florida won, 62-50.

UF shuts down ‘Dunk City’ The Associated Press

South Regional No. 3 Florida 62, No. 15 Fla. Gulf Coast 50 ARLINGTON, TEXAS — Mike Rosario had 15 points and Florida is going to an NCAA regional final for the third year in a row after a victory over Florida Gulf Coast, the No. 15 seed whose improbable tournament journey ended just before midnight Friday.

Florida Gulf Coast, the high-flying team from “Dunk City” few people knew before this NCAA tourney, jumped out to an early 11-point lead against the SEC regular-season champs.

But the No. 3 seed Gators (29-7), with a roster filled with NCAA tourney experience, were just too strong and too good.

Michael Frazier made a pair of 3-pointer to start a 16-0 run late in the first half. That came in a 4 1/2-minute span when the Eagles (26-11) had four turnovers and missed their only shot. They trailed the rest of the game.

The Gators play Michigan in the South Regional final at Cowboys Stadium on Sunday. They are trying to get to their first NCAA Final Four since consecutive national championships in 2006 and 2007.

FLORIDA GULF COAST (26-11) Comer 1-5 2-2 4, Thompson 2-7 1-2 6, McKnight 1-3 0-2 2, Fieler 5-10 0-0 12, Brown 7-13 0-2 14, Varidel 3-5 3-3 10, Cvjeticanin 0-0 0-0 0, Murray 1-1 0-0 2, Graf 0-0 0-0 0. Totals 20-44 6-11 50.

Midwest Regional No. 1 Louisville 77, No. 12 Oregon 69 INDIANAPOLIS — Louisville survived its first test.

Russ Smith matched his career high with 31 points to lead three Cardinals in double figures, and topseeded Louisville showed it can win close games, too, beating Oregon.

Kevin Ware added 11 and Gorgui Dieng had 10 points and nine rebounds for Louisville, which has won 13 straight. Coach Rick Pitino improved to 11-0 in the regional semifinals of the NCAA tournament.

“We dug ourselves a pretty big hole and weren’t able to come back,” Oregon coach Dana Altman said.

“Louisville is a very good basketball team and very talented. Smith got going to the basket and we just never got him slowed down.”

The 12th-seeded Ducks (28-9) at least made a game of it late. After Louisville went up 66-48 with 9:01 left, Oregon made six straight field goals to close to 70-64 — the closest anyone’s been to the Cardinals in a couple of weeks.

But Kevin Ware scored on a layup and Chane Behanan threw down a monstrous dunk to put the game out of reach. Still, Oregon is only the second team to be within single digits at the buzzer during Louisville’s run.

Louisville (32-5) moves on to play the winner of Michigan State-Duke on Sunday, hoping to advance to the Final Four for the second straight year.

E.J. Singler’s 15 points led five Ducks in double figures, and the Ducks had only 12 turnovers — one fewer than the Cardinals.

But Oregon could never recover from its poor first half, when the Ducks were plagued by foul trouble — Johnathan Loyd had three before halftime — and an off night by Damyean Dotson. The freshman was huge in Oregon’s victory over Saint Louis, scoring a career-high 23. But he was 0 for 6 in the first half, and didn’t make a field goal until midway through the second. He finished with 12 points on 5-of-14 shooting.

No. 2 Duke 71, No. 3 Michigan State 61 INDIANAPOLIS — Seth Curry shot Duke right into the regional finals — and put Mike Krzyzewski on the verge of another milestone.

Curry scored 29 points and the Blue Devils beat Michigan State to advance to the Midwest Regional final in the NCAA tournament.

If No. 2 seed Duke (305) beats top-seeded Louisville (32-5) in Sunday’s regional final, Krzyzewski would tie John Wooden’s record with 12 Final Four trips.

Third-seeded Michigan State (27-9) just couldn’t keep up with Curry and Duke’s shooters. Keith Appling had 16 points for the Spartans, and Adreian Payne finished with 14.

Curry’s sixth 3-pointer of the game broke a 3838 tie early in the second half, sending Duke on a 9-0 run. It also matched the school record for most 3s in an NCAA tourney game.

2 Miami 78 15 Pacific 49 AP

LOS ANGELES (AP) — During Ohio State’s journey to the Final Four last season, Aaron Craft learned the importance of focusing on the next 40 minutes, not the threeweek trip.

So Craft didn’t realize the highest seeds in the West Regional were dropping like dominoes until earlier this week.

He purposely didn’t learn much about ninth-seeded Wichita State until Thursday night, when the powerful Buckeyes found out they’re facing the unheralded Shockers today for another ticket to the Final Four.

“I think that really helped a lot — just getting caught up in the moment and thinking about where you are and what you need to do to get out,” Ohio State’s star point guard said. “We watch all the games. Obviously we’re basketball fans, but I kept saying, ‘Where is this team? Which bracket is this in? What is that?’

It wasn’t until after we played Iowa State that I realized our bracket was being destroyed numberwise, and really realizing how tough every team was.”

Craft’s point is a theme echoed on both sides of Staples Center on Friday during workouts for the final game in a regional that emphasized the parity throughout college basketball when six of the top eight seeds lost on the first weekend.

Anybody who tries to paint this match-up as David facing down Goliath will get polite disagreement from the supposed big guy and the alleged little guy alike.

That’s just not how college basketball works anymore, according to both Craft and Wichita State coach Gregg Marshall.

Neither team has any doubt Wichita State (29-8) belongs on the same court with the mighty Buckeyes (29-7) for a chance to go to Atlanta.

“We have to go out there and play our hearts out,” Wichita State’s Cleanthony Early said. “So regardless if their facilities are a little bit bigger than ours, they’ve got to lace up their shoes just like us.”

Sure, the Shockers can’t match Ohio State’s financial resources or alumni base. They’ve got everything else necessary to play with the Buckeyes for those 40 minutes — and even pull off one more surprise in their charmed run through March.

“What I love is the fact they’re not really bouncing off the wall,” Marshall said of his Shockers.

“They seem to be legitimately unsatisfied thus far. We know we’ve got a great opponent and a tremendous challenge, but at the same time, we’re in that Elite Eight game.

We have an opportunity, and our best is going to be hard to beat.”

Wichita State is making its first regional finals appearance since 1981, looking for a spot in its first Final Four since the school’s only previous trip in 1965. The Shockers’ 29 victories match the school record set just two years ago under Marshall, the low-profile, high-energy coach who spent part of Friday fending off questions about UCLA’s job vacancy from eager Los Angeles reporters.

And Wichita State is still burning with confidence from beating top-ranked and top-seeded Gonzaga last weekend — not bad for a team that didn’t win the Missouri Valley Conference tournament, but could get the MVC back to the Final Four for the first time since Larry Bird led Indiana State to the 1979 title game.

“So many non-BCS schools are getting the opportunity to be in the

WICHITA STATE’S CARL HALL CELEBRATES a basket against La Salle on Thursday in Los Angeles. The Shockers advanced to the Elite Eight with a 72-58 victory and will face No. 2-seed Ohio State at 6 p.m. today.

NCAA tournament and prove that they belong — not only belong, but can win the whole thing,” Marshall said. “It’s almost a self-fulfilling prophecy.

The programs then start selling out, raising revenue for the athletic department, and ultimately giving greater visibility to their universities, and what is that worth?”

Ohio State has a good idea of the value of this run.

With 11 consecutive victories since Feb. 17, Ohio State is on the brink of its 11th Final Four appearance. The second-seeded Buckeyes are a win away from matching last season’s accomplishments despite losing Jared Sullinger to the NBA. What’s more, leading scorer Deshaun Thomas thinks the Buckeyes’ current run has been easier than last year’s March surge, suggesting Ohio State still has much more to show.

“We’re playing at a higher level now,” Thomas said. “Last year was tougher, going through Gonzaga, Syracuse and Cincinnati. Those were some great teams. This year, we’re on a roll right now. Once Gonzaga and a couple of higher teams on our side got put out (this year), it opened doors for us. But again, you can’t take these teams like Wichita State lightly.

We know it’s going to be tough. Gonzaga losing on our side kind of helped us leave the door open, but we’re still going to treat these teams like Gonzaga.”

Craft believes Ohio State has more momentum than last season, including those last two victories on dramatic, tiebreaking 3-pointers by Craft against Iowa State last weekend and LaQuinton Ross against Arizona on Thursday night.

Although Ohio State and Wichita State haven’t met since 1963, the Buckeyes think they know what to expect.

Wichita State will try to force a speedy tempo on Ohio State, using its pressing defense and stellar rebounding to push the Buckeyes into uncomfortable situations.

The Shockers are big and tough under the basket, but could struggle to keep up when the Buckeyes use an undersized lineup.

“What we have to do is, don’t let their angriness affect us,” Thomas said.

“Don’t play into their hands. Don’t let them speed us up, because that’s what they’re going to try to do. We know they’re going to come out aggressive, pressing, and try to do anything to make us throw the ball away.”

MICHIGAN GUARD TREY BURKE, LEFT, LAUNCHES THE THREE-POINTER OVER KANSAS FORWARD KEVIN YOUNG THAT FORCED OVERTIME in the Wolverines’ eventual 87-85 victory over the Jayhawks on Friday at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

Assistant fired up Burke at break

By Matt Tait mtait@ljworld.com

ARLINGTON, TEXAS — Credit Michigan assistant coach LaVall Jordan for at least part of Michigan’s surprising, come-frombehind, 87-85 overtime victory against top-seeded Kansas University on Friday night at Cowboys Stadium.

See, it was Jordan who said the final few words to Michigan point guard Trey Burke in the locker room at halftime, words that inspired a 23-point explosion from the sophomore whom the Jayhawks held scoreless during the first 20 minutes.

“I think (Kansas) did a really good job of keeping me out of the paint (in the first half),” Burke said. “We knew that they were really good defensively, but my job was just to knock down open shots and get everyone else involved. I understand that this team is best when we’re all flowing offensively. Coach Jordan just told me to be

Aggressive did not begin to explain it. Burke flat-out caught fire down the stretch, helping the Wolverines (29-7) pull even in the final seconds

after trailing by 14 inside of seven minutes and by as many as 10 at the 2:52 mark of the second half.

Burke’s heroics may not have mattered had KU (316) sealed the deal at the free-throw line, but a late

miss by Elijah Johnson left the door cracked, and Burke kicked the Maize and Blue through it.

“When Elijah Johnson missed the front end of the one-and-one, I knew we still had a chance,” Burke

him from the baseline to behind the arc.

“Once it came to me, I knew. There was not much time left on the clock. I tried to make a shot for myself. It wasn’t a good look.”

Asked to describe KU’s plans for that last play, Tharpe said: “Elijah to get to the basket.”

As an interesting side note, KU coach Bill Self during the time setting up the final play initially asked the squad’s seniors how they wanted to attack.

“I said, ‘What do you guys want to do?’ Travis (Releford, 16 points) and those guys said, ‘Let’s shoot a three and win it.’

Then I said, ‘Or let’s drive it,’” Self said, smiling. “I think it was one of those things we were all on the same page leaving the timeout. I don’t think that situation was the right time to intentionally clip off a three. I was going to put the ball in his hands to make a play or get the ball to Ben (McLemore, 20 points, 8-of-15 shooting) shooting a three. I thought the best percentage play was Elijah to drive it. He had the size advantage. It didn’t turn out the way we wanted.”

Asked whether he thought Johnson could have hoisted a possible game-tying shot, Self said: “I don’t know. He was able to get his shoulders past him (defender). But for whatever reason, he

said. “Coach called a play for me, but it was really to try to get into the paint and get a quick layup.

Then I (saw) that they were gonna switch, and I knew we really didn’t have a lot of time to get a two and foul and go through all that. And I just hit the shot, really. I stepped back, got some separation and hit the shot. We were all very happy, but there were four seconds left, and I just tried to calm everybody down and let ’em know that this game wasn’t over.”

Burke’s game-tying, 27foot three-pointer with four seconds to play figures to live in Michigan basketball lore for decades. And he was happy to talk about it after Friday’s victory.

“We fought so hard to come back, it really didn’t matter how far the shot was,” he said. “It was either all or nothing. The season flashed before our eyes those last two or three minutes. I had a lot of faith in that shot, and it went in.”

That’s when he threw the ball back to ‘Naa.’ Naa had a shot. He pump faked and took one bounce and didn’t get off a good look.

“That was poor execution,” Self added. “Obviously, we didn’t do a very good job on the last possession.”

Michigan’s take is that Johnson might not have been able to complete the drive had he elected to.

“The angle he had wasn’t the best. He didn’t have a good angle to put it off the backboard,” U of M’s Jordan Morgan said.

“He got caught behind the backboard. He would’ve had to have shot a floater. That would’ve been tougher than putting it off the glass. He got caught in the air behind the basket.

It would’ve been a tough shot for him.”

Johnson had a chance to perhaps ice the game in regulation, a game KU led by 14 with 6:50 left and by eight points at 1:22.

He first hit two free throws to give KU a 76-71 lead with :21 left. After a Trey Burke bucket, Johnson missed the front end of a one-and-one at :12.6, and Burke forced overtime by hitting a three with 4.2 seconds to play.

“When I shot it, it felt good,” Johnson said of the final free throw. “When it left my hand, I felt it go to the side. I felt good sitting on the line.”

He committed three turnovers in four possessions as KU was squandering its lead down the stretch, one not getting the ball past midcourt in 10 seconds with KU up, 72-64.

“I love the kid,” Self said. “He had a rough game, a really poor deci-

sion to start the game (flagrant foul) that got him behind the 8-ball. We played through it. He made a couple bad, bad plays late. He also did some good things, too (like hitting a three that cut an 87-82 deficit to 87-85 with :45 left in OT).

It’s one for him that will be tough to stomach. He’ll look back in time and reflect on what type of career he had, all those kids (seniors) had.”

Self pointed out the loss wasn’t all on Johnson. KU led by five late and failed to dive on a loose ball with a possession arrow in KU’s favor. Michigan scored on the possession.

“It was about five possessions we had a chance to get a stop or create a jump ball or anything,” Self said. “Ben muffed it (ball), they reached for it and were more aggressive. They were the more aggressive team then. And

we had a chance to ice it from the free-throw line and didn’t do it. I’m not putting it on one player or one play. I could have done a much better job from the bench in that situation being up 12 late.

We just didn’t get it done, period. It will go down as one of the toughest games that we’ve been a part of and certainly I’ve been a part of.”

And so Michigan advances to Sunday’s Elite Eight game.

KU’s season ends at 316.

Michigan freshman Mitch McGary, who led all scorers with 25 points, played a big part in freeing Burke for the longrange bomb. An overjoyed McGary shared his unique view of the shot with the media after the win.

“I was actually setting a screen,” McGary began. “I was on my back, and I turn around and run to try to get an offensive rebound when the shot went in.”

Michigan coach John Beilein said Friday’s victory was like many that came before it this season.

“I think everybody that watched this game tonight saw what we’ve been coaching all year,” he said.

“It’s a bunch of young men that have high character.

They play to win, they play together, and they’ve been persistent all year long.... I’m proud of them because they deserve this.

I feel bad for Kansas. They really have a good team.

But the ball bounced our way down the last few minutes, and we keep on playing.”

McLemore CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1B

his decision on whether to return for his sophomore season, McLemore said, “I really don’t know. ... It’s a tough loss, but I know it’s an even tougher loss for the seniors.”

McLemore’s big night came after rough outings in the second and third rounds last week in Kansas City, Mo. McLemore missed his first five shots of Friday’s loss before catching fire after watching a threepointer from the corner settle in the bottom of the net.

“I felt comfortable,” he said. “Getting the ball moving around, my shot was falling, and I just went out there and tried to play like I played in the beginning of the season, play free, having fun, with a smile on my face.”

McLemore was one of several Jayhawks who took a turn at guarding Michigan guard Trey Burke, and that, too, left him shaking his head after the game. After going scoreless in the first half, Burke scored 23 points in the second half and overtime, including a three-pointer with four seconds left that tied the game.

“Trey Burke stepped up late, hit a huge shot,” McLemore said. “He’s a great player. He’s definitely, definitely a great player.”

we wanted the game, and of course the last three minutes we didn’t do a lot of things right, which will be something we’ll look back on and regret for a long, long time,” Kansas coach Bill Self said. “But props to Michigan for making all the plays late.”

Said Travis Releford: “We had a chance to seal the game, but we made some bone-headed plays late.”

It was nice of Releford to say, “we.” That’s the way teammates talk. They don’t point fingers, and this was a tight-knit group that did none of that. Releford played well in his final game as a Jayhawk, totaling 16 points, five rebounds and six assists with just one turnover in 42 minutes.

So did Perry Ellis, who made the most of 15 minutes and totaled eight points, five boards, three assists and a great hustle play that kept the ball from going out of bounds.

Same for Kevin Young (12 points, seven boards, defensive lapses late) and Jeff Withey (12 points, eight boards, five blocks).

Ben McLemore caught fire and was largely responsible for giving Kansas a double-digit lead, until he deferred late to the veterans, fell into foul trouble and lost his aggressiveness. He led Kansas with 20 points, but attempted one shot in the game’s final 16 minutes.

Even fellow red-shirt freshman Jamari Traylor made the most of his five minutes with an energetic performance that yielded two points, two blocked shots and an assist.

Naadir Tharpe steered Kansas to a six-point halftime lead as Johnson was limited to three first-half minutes.

As Self said, Michigan made all the plays late, and it was not unlike the way Kansas made all the

by Michigan guard Trey Burke. The play resulted in a turnover when the Jayhawks failed to cross midcourt in time. plays late against Memphis in storming back from a nine-point deficit to win the national title five years ago. But Kansas helped Michigan more than Memphis helped Kansas.

The anatomy of the KU breakdown: Robinson’s dunk, courtesy of Johnson, cut the lead to eight points with 2:18 left. Johnson failed to dribble the ball past the midcourt line in the allotted 10 seconds, giving the ball back to Michigan.

It was Johnson’s third turnover in four possessions. Trey Burke set up Mitch McGary for an easy bucket, trimming the lead to six points with 1:54 left. Releford’s two free throws pumped it back to eight with 1:22 remaining.

Burke — note how frequently his and Johnson’s names surface in the re-living of a Michigan dream and KU nightmare — buried a three-pointer to cut it to a five with 1:15 left. Tim Hardaway Jr. missed a three with 35 seconds left. The basketball squirted loose and was there to be had, the type of play Self’s teams usually feast on.

“All we had to do was fall on the ball,” Self said.

“The possession arrow was ours. We just didn’t do it. Seasons usually come down, if you’ve got

a pretty good team, to one possession, at least it has with us, most every year.

This wasn’t one possession. This was about five possessions.”

Robinson picked the ball up and scored. Now the lead was three. Johnson’s two free throws with 21 seconds left pumped the lead back to five. Burke’s layup with 14 seconds made it a threepoint game again. Burke fouled Johnson with 12 seconds left, and Johnson missed the front end of a one-and-one.

Self generally believes in fouling with a threepoint lead once the clock shrinks to six seconds.

Nobody was close enough to foul Burke, freed by screens, when he launched a 27-footer as Young ran toward him but was late in doing so.

Burke nailed it. Of course he did.

Kansas had 4.3 seconds to get off a good shot and did, but Tharpe’s threepointer kissed off the front of the rim.

Technically, Michigan won the game in overtime, but in reality Kansas and Michigan combined to decide it at the end of regulation.

A second overtime loomed as a possibility with the ball in the hands of Johnson, whose extra period was a mixed

Low blow Michigan’s Mitch McGary was a bit surprised to get whacked in the groin area by Kansas’ Elijah Johnson in the opening moments of Friday’s 87-85 overtime victory over the Jayhawks.

“I didn’t know Elijah played like that. I don’t know him or anything. I was just setting a screen for Trey (Burke), and (Johnson) came up and whacked me right in the crotch. He used his fist. He dropped me,” McGary said of what was deemed a Flagrant One foul.

“I was in the fetal position. I was waiting for him to blow the whistle, and they did. I was like, ‘Check the monitor.’ And they were like, ‘He was just cutting for a screen.’ And I was like, ‘No, check the monitor.’ It was intentional.”

Johnson said it was not intentional.

KU coach Bill Self’s take: “I didn’t see it, but obviously the official said he did it, so he did it. The film doesn’t lie. That’s not how we play.

And that was not smart at all. And then he has a bad second foul and a charge (playing three minutes total the first half), when all he had to do was stop and shoot it. The third foul he plays for 15 seconds and gets that one. We played pretty well the first half considering our starting point guard didn’t play at all. The second half he did some good things making shots. I know he wishes he had a couple of those possessions back.”

The ensemble boarded a bus in New York shortly after the performance and arrived Wednesday night in Lawrence. The group flew from KC International to Dallas on Thursday. Then, after playing for the Jayhawks this weekend, they will return to Lawrence to perform the Midwestern premiere of the symphony Tuesday night at the Lied Center.

Steady Firebirds cruise, 6-1

KANSAS CITY ROYALS’ JEFF FRANCOEUR HITS a home run against the Cleveland Indians during the fifth inning in a spring training baseball game on Friday in Surprise, Ariz.

Royals wrap up spring with win SURPRISE, ARIZ. (AP) — The Kansas City Royals wrapped up their most successful spring training in team history with one final win.

Alex Gordon, Jeff Francoeur, Elliot Johnson and Roman Hernandez homered as the Royals beat the Cleveland Indians 5-1 Friday.

The Royals finished 257-2, the best exhibition record in the majors.

“There’s a lot to like about this team,” Royals manager Ned Yost said.

“I think we’ve got a great defense. I think our starting pitching is going to be a focal point and a strong asset to our club. Our relief pitching has always been dynamite in my mind.”

“I think where we’re at offensively now is more the team I envisioned it to be. A team that can score runs, that can drive the gaps and can hit the ball over the fence. I love the chemistry. I love the makeup. I love the enthusiasm that we have in our clubhouse,” he said.

The Royals finished with a Cactus Leagueleading .335 batting average and 230 runs.

“For me, this could be the very first time I’m leaving spring training or had a team where I feel really, really good about every aspect of it. It’s a nice feeling,” Yost said.

The Royals also left Arizona with no serious injuries. This was in contrast to last March when closer Joakim Soria needed season-ending Tommy John surgery and starting catcher Salvador Perez required knee surgery that sidelined him until late June.

Jeremy Guthrie, who will be the Royals’ No. 3 starter, allowed one run and six hits in four innings. He pitched out of trouble in the second and third innings by inducing Jason Kipnis and Lou Marson to ground into double plays.

“I thought Jeremy was ready to open the season,” Yost said. “I thought he was very sharp with all of his pitches and he made big pitches when he got guys on to turn double plays. The defense did a great job behind him. He’s ready to go. We’re ready to go. Everybody on the club is ready to go.”

Ubaldo Jimenez, who had not allowed a home run in his first 25 1-3 innings this spring, yielded a home run to Gordon on his second pitch. It was Gordon’s team-leading eighth home run and he finished with a .438 batting average.

Francoeur and Johnson homered in the fifth.

“I only gave up three hits — three home runs,” Jimenez said. “Two of them they were bad pitches, but the ball flies here. If I let it a little bit up, then it’s a home run here.”

Jimenez won 19 games in 2010 and 15 in 2009 for the Colorado Rockies, but has a 13-21 record with a 5.32 ERA in 42 starts with the Indians.

The Indians acquired Jimenez in a trade on July 31, 2011, and he acknowledged it has been a frustrating two seasons.

“I’m a human being,” Jimenez said. “Especially coming to a team that traded for you because and they wanted you to help them. I’m not able to do anything for them.

It definitely gets to your mind. When is this going to end? When am I going to start doing what I’m supposed to do?”

Jimenez, who went 9-17 with a 5.40 ERA last season, said he is confident he will have a much better 2013.

“Definitely I am, no doubt,” he said.

Notes: Yost said before the game INF Miguel Tejada made the club as a utility player. Tejada, 38, was the 2002 AL MVP, but did not play in the majors last year. He hit .239 in 91 games with San Francisco in 2011, the last time he was in the big leagues. He came to camp as a nonroster invitee with a minor league contract. ... George Kottaras won the Royals’ backup catching job over Brett Hayes, who accepted an outright assignment to Triple-A Omaha after clearing waivers.

Free State High junior pitcher Ryan Cantrell didn’t overwhelm any Blue Valley Southwest batters with his velocity Friday afternoon at FSHS, but the right-hander dealt with such precision the visiting Timberwolves never posed a threat in a 6-1 Firebirds victory.

Cantrell relinquished one hit in five innings, struck out four and didn’t allow a BVSW base runner to get any farther than second base, leaving Free State coach Mike Hill appropriately pleased.

“He was terrific — multiple pitches for strikes.

Hitting is timing and pitching is a disruption of timing. That’s exactly what he did today,” Hill said after the Firebirds’ fourth-straight win. “He understands what his task is and he executed it beautifully.”

Only one T’wolves batter worked Cantrell for a walk, and that came in the fourth inning, after he had retired the first 11 batters he faced. The junior pitcher gave the credit for his impressive outing to catcher Lee McMahon and pitching coach Layne Meyer.

“They both called a great game and were able to keep me calm the whole time,” Cantrell said.

“You’ve got to remind yourself we have one of the best defenses in the entire Sunflower League — if not the state — and you’ve got to let them play.”

By keeping his pitches down, Cantrell forced BVSW into nine groundouts, some of them potentially tricky tappers that were scooped up by third baseman Cameron Pope, shortstop Anthony Miele or second baseman Cooper Karlin.

A three-run Free State lead after the first inning and a 4-0 lead entering the third helped out, too.

“It gives you room to breathe,” Cantrell said of the early run production.

“If you make a mistake, you know it’s not that big

Senior Jacob Caldwell struck first, with an RBI single to left field in the bottom of the first. Then came an RBI ground-out from Pope and an RBI double to the left-field gap off Lee McMahon’s bat. In the second, Joel Spain scored from third on a throwing error by T’wolves catcher TJ Martin.

Hill said taking early leads has keyed a successful start to the season for the 4-0 Firebirds.

“I think for everybody — pitchers, hitters, fielders — if you can establish a lead early,” the coach said, “that makes a difference.”

FSHS added two more runs in the bottom of the fifth, when senior Dane McCullough stepped in as a pinch hitter with two outs and the bases loaded. His single to left field plated Joe Dineen and Caldwell.

Thanks to Cantrell’s solid start, the Firebirds never had to worry, but Caldwell (2-for-3) said they didn’t ease up, either. A left-handed senior, Caldwell pitched the final two innings for FSHS. The T’wolves threatened with back-to-back hits to open the seventh, but he got out of the inning with a ground-out, an RBI infield single and a double play he started by snag-

ging a hard-hit ball up the middle.

“Even though they were doing pretty well and getting a couple hits here and there,” Caldwell said, “I just looked at the scoreboard and saw Ryan’s given us a six-run lead.

It calmed me down and made it much easier to just get them out.”

The Firebirds play Tuesday at Shawnee Mission South.

Texas sweeps Kansas softball Eighth-ranked Texas completed a resounding sweep of the Kansas University softball team on Friday at Arrocha Ballpark.

Kansas (21-10 overall, 0-3 Big 12) totalled just nine hits in three games against the Longhorns (32-4, 5-0), who defeated the Jayhawks, 16-4 and 5-4 on Friday.

Fresh off a 5-0 defeat on Thursday, KU built an early 3-0 advantage in the first game of the doubleheader and led Texas, 3-2, through five innings. But in the sixth inning, an offensive explosion by the Longhorns — 19 batters, 10 hits and 14 runs, including a home run and grand slam — slammed the door on the Jayhawks’ hopes for an upset.

Senior left fielder Maggie Hull, who led KU with a double and three RBIs off 2-for-3 batting, added one final score for the Jayhawks. Sophomore Alicia Pille (11⁄3 innings, four runs, three hits, three walks) took the loss.

In the second game, with Texas already leading 2-0, Hull started Kansas off with a single and was followed by freshman designated player Alex Hugo, who blasted a home run to tie the score at 2-2 after one inning. Those two hits were KU’s last of the day, however, as Texas senior Blaire Luna (17-1) struck out nine in a complete-game victory.

The Jayhawks scored twice more after two errors and a walk loaded the bases in the fifth innings. Sophomore catcher Maddie Stein grounded out for one run and senior first baseman Mariah Montgomery drew one of KU’s

McBride at best in biggest games for Irish SOUTH BEND, IND. (AP) â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Kayla McBride has a knack for coming up big in Notre Dameâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s toughest games.

She scored a career-high 21 points in a one-point win at Connecticut in January, topped that with 26 points in a triple-overtime victory over the Huskies in South Bend earlier this month to clinch the Big East regular-season title, and then had 23 points against UConn in the leagueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tournament title game and was named the tournamentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most outstanding player. She has scored at least 15 points in 11 of Notre Dameâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 12 games against ranked opponents this season.

The Irish (33-1) have

won a REGIONAL schoolrecord 28 SEMIFINAL straight g a m e s Who: No. 12 h e a d i n g Kansas (20into their 13) vs. No. 1 g a m e Notre Dame S u n d a y (33-1) a g a i n s t When: 11:04 12th-seed- a.m. Sunday ed Kansas Where: Nor(20-13) in folk, Va. Norfolk, Va. Tipoff TV: ESPN is 11:04 a.m (Knology Cable chs.

(CDT). â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think 33, 233) my teammates just depend on me more in those games,â&#x20AC;?

McBride said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel like I have to be at my best. I try to be at my best every game, but when weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in

top competition, I love to be at the top of my game.â&#x20AC;?

It wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t that way all season, though. Last season McBride was in more of a supporting role, a player who would occasionally provide an offensive spark and who was one of the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best defenders. Coming into this season, she knew she had to become more of a dependable scorer.

The 5-foot-11 junior slumped in midseason, making 25 percent of her shots during a four-game streak when she averaged 8.5 points a game. The low point came at Tennessee, when she was 4-of-18 shooting for nine points. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think I was trying to do a little too much, kind

of playing outside myself,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was taking shots I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t comfortable taking.â&#x20AC;?

Irish coach Muffet McGraw believes McBride was putting too much pressure on herself. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really relaxed and letting the game come to her,â&#x20AC;? McGraw said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She was trying too hard and mentally over thought things. So I think it was good for her to just relax and let the game come to her.â&#x20AC;?

McBride bounced back the following game against Cincinnati, by making her first seven shots and scoring 17 of her 19 points in the first half and has been steady ever since, averaging 16 points a game on 46.7 percent shooting.

that the way I feel about these quirks will eventually overshadow the beautiful, positive feelings I have for him. That is depressing to contemplate. — Hoping for Change Dear Hoping: These “quirks” do affect you if you live together or share finances. Secondhand smoke can be deadly for you, and someone who plays online poker might have a gambling problem. You cannot force a person to stop smoking, but you

‘Orphan’ a complicated new drama “That’s you, all over!” could be the tagline for the new headscratcher “Orphan Black” (8 p.m. Saturday, BBC America).

Part of a lineup of supernatural fare, including a new episode of “Doctor Who” (7 p.m. Saturday, BBC America), “Black” asks a lot of star Tatiana Maslany.

She’s first seen as Sarah, a punk runaway at a New York train station, who calls her foster brother (Jordan Gavaris, “Degrassi”) to announce that she’s back in town to reclaim her lost daughter and get rid of her deadbeat, drug dealer boyfriend. Moments later, she witnesses a rather posh woman collapse in sobs before throwing herself in front of an onrushing commuter train.

But just before the woman hits the tracks, Sarah catches a glance at her face and realizes that the suicide is her mirror image. A resourceful street kid, Sarah steals her handbag, wallet and personal effects, planning to leave her scruffy old life and assume the identity of her dead identical “twin.”

If this story line sounds familiar, it’s because it’s similar to the plot to “Ringer,” the canceled CW drama that starred Sarah Michelle Gellar.

But “Black” gets much more complicated in a hurry.

Sarah soon discovers that the “nice” girl whose identity she’s stolen was actually involved in some complicated police business. Did that drive her to suicide? Or was it the presence of yet another double — or is that a triple? ‘‘Black” should have quit while Sarah was juggling with just one other life to lead. Once it sends in the clones, things stop making much sense and the drama begins to thin out.

Saturday’s other highlights

The 2013 NCAA Basketball Tournament (3:20 p.m. and 5:55 p.m., CBS) continues.

Just three years shy of 60 years old, the 1956 Cecil B. DeMille biblical epic “The Ten Commandments” (6 p.m., ABC) continues to attract a large TV audience.

Isaiah Washington and Lamman Rucker portray rival ministers struggling with power and corruption in the 2012 drama “The Undershepherd” (7 p.m., TV One).

Scheduled on “48 Hours” (9 p.m., CBS): A televangelist’s world is rocked by murder.

With just $300 to spend and a set of wheels, host Justin Warner prowls Southern back roads in search of “Rebel Eats” (9 p.m., Food Network).

BIRTHDAYS Game show host Peter Marshall is 87. Actor Richard Dysart is 84. Actor John Astin is 83.

Actor-director Warren Beatty is 76. Rock musician Eric Clapton is 68. Actor Robbie Coltrane is 63.

Actor Paul Reiser is 56. Rap artist MC Hammer is 50. Singer Tracy Chapman is 49. Actor Ian Ziering is 49. Singer Celine Dion is 45. Actor Mark Consuelos is 42. Singer Norah Jones is 34.

can refuse to live in that environment. You also cannot demand that he stop gambling, but if he is addicted and unwilling to quit, you will have an ongoing issue about money. He may have wonderful qualities that you appreciate, but we don’t see him as a longterm partner unless he is willing to work on these things.

Dear Annie: I’m 12 years old and started middle school in the fall. I’ve begun hanging out with a group of four other girls. I never really talked to them until this year. These girls have been together since kindergarten, and it seems that one of them doesn’t fully accept me. She has put up a wall between the other girls and me, and I doubt she’ll be ready to take it down for a long time.

I’d like to be fully accepted and want to tell

JACQUELINE BIGAR’S STARS

For Saturday, March 30: This year you often have to redo conversations or repeat your point over and over again. Some of you might decide to sign up for a class in communication, while others simply will go with the flow. If you are single, you can work with nearly anyone, but take your time and wait for the right person. If you are attached, you seem to be able to communicate on many levels.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult Aries (March 21-April 19) Close relating seems right and fulfilling. You are unable to proceed any further without some R and R. Tonight: With your circle of friends.

Taurus (April 20-May 20) Defer to a partner.

This person will enjoy your attitude and feel special. Tonight: The more friends and family, the better.

Gemini (May 21-June 20) Slow down, and get some much-needed R and R. You might be confused as to which way you should turn in a situation. Tonight: Aren’t you a party animal?

Cancer (June 21-July 22) Express your caring in a spontaneous, loving manner.

What occurs could be quite different if you suddenly become stoic.

Tonight: Fun and games.

Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) You’re typically not a stick in the mud, but right now, you could be mistaken for one. You’ll consider making a change in your personal life, and you actually might decide to follow through on it later.

Tonight: Respond to an enticing invitation.

them that, but I don’t want to be pushy and unkind. What do I do?

— On the Wrong Side of the Wall Dear Wrong Side: You seem to have a solid grasp of the situation, but we don’t recommend you pit yourself against the other girl.

She has “seniority,” and her friends will back her position if forced to take sides. Instead, get to know her better. Find something you admire about her, and tell her.

She needs to see you as an ally and not as a threat to her position within the group. It will take a little while, but in the process, you could be making a friend for life.

Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) Keep conversations moving by nodding more and making less critical comments. You could be amazed at what happens. Tonight: Hang out with friends.

Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) Going overboard or developing a devil-may-care attitude will have its ramifications. Be aware of what your limits are. Tonight: A conversation could be very informative.

Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) You will toss yourself 110 percent into whatever you do.

Your charisma and high energy attract many people. Tonight: Your treat.

Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) Know that you need some time to yourself to re-energize, get some R and R and/or take care of a project. Make plans for later in the day when you feel far more upbeat. Tonight: You are feeling your Wheaties.

Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) Join friends, go to a game or do some shopping. You are happiest when you’re with others.

Tonight: Play it low-key.

Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) Others have many expectations of you, and you also have expectations of yourself. Know that you will be able to meet them, no matter what. Tonight: Let the good times happen.

Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) Choose a fun activity or pastime that allows you to escape the here-and-now. Take a day trip to a favorite place, for example.

Tonight: Others follow your lead.

— The astrological forecast should be read for entertainment only.

Dear Annie: I’m in love with a wonderful man who has a couple of habits I can’t seem to get past no matter how often I tell myself they aren’t important.

My partner is 47, smokes heavily, does not exercise and spends a good part of each day playing online poker. I am by no means a health fanatic or a model of productivity, but I do my best to stay in shape and live a relatively healthy, active life.
