Published Mon, 16 Dec 2024 13:47:26 GMT

The game plan Friday was simple — run the football and don’t let up.That made it a relatively basic night for St. Agnes senior quarterback Landen Mickelson. But he wasn’t complaining one bit.After all, the Aggies — ranked No. 7 in the state in the most recent Class 2A state poll — rushed for a season-best 376 yards as a team en route to improving to 4-0 with a 33-14 victory over Holy Family on the road in Victoria.“You can’t argue when your team is putting points on the board like we were,” said a smiling Mickelson, who rushed for two touchdowns himself. “My job is easy. Just hand the ball off and let them do the work.”The them to which Mickelson was referring were St. Agnes’ talented group of running backs. Senior Elijah Simmons led the way Friday, carrying the ball 19 times for 149 yards and two touchdowns.Sophomore Evonson Plamann was close behind, carrying the ball 17 times for 118 yards. Senior fullback Adam Hernandez rushed for 74 yards and a score as well.“W...

Twins clinch American League Central, punch ticket to playoffs

Published Mon, 16 Dec 2024 13:47:26 GMT

Byron Buxton stood in front of his locker in a nearly empty clubhouse in Fort Myers, Fla., on a day in March, dreaming of new jewelry.“I want a ring,” Buxton, one of the longest-tenured members of the team, said that day. “I want something that got them diamonds (in) the end.”This, he said, was one of the best Twins teams he could recall. The talk in spring training was that as Buxton and Carlos Correa, the $200 million shortstop who re-signed with the Twins after a dramatic trip through free agency, went, so too would the Twins.But on that day in March, Buxton was instead touting that team’s depth, the depth that would eventually lead the Twins to their third American League Central title in the past five years. Buxton is still dreaming of that ring, but the Twins checked off one major milestone on their way, sealing a postseason berth on Friday with an 8-6 win over the Los Angeles Angels in front of a lively crowd at Target Field.In a season in which Correa and Buxton were hampere...

Published Mon, 16 Dec 2024 13:47:26 GMT

COLUMBIA, Mo. - Missouri is making some large investments to improve railroads and interstates, and they're expected to help the state's business community grow. The largest item in this year's state budget is the $2.8 billion plan to improve Interstate 70 from St. Louis to Kansas City. Besides bring relief to drivers, it's estimated to attract new businesses to the state and grow existing companies.Lawmakers allocated a historic amount of money to MoDOT to update railroad crossings and to add extra lanes on I-70 in both directions. Officers no longer employed in aftermath of inmate escape from Mercy Hospital "You're going to see more businesses pop up along I-70, and then the good thing we can do, is we can now take the rest of that money that we had invested and switch that over to I-44," said Missouri Gov. Mike Parson. But the state’s transportation department is expecting to pay for the price of inflation. "We had on average, at the beginning of the inflationary period, we we...
