Knights cap off Unbeaten Wichita State perfect season with 1st State cage title falls to Kentucky, 78-76
BY JOHN PARENT Times Bulletin Sports Editor news@delphosherald.com COLUMBUS Crestview head coach Jeremy Best must give one heck of a halftime speech. For the second time in as many games, the Knights came out of intermission firing on all cylinders. Crestview used an 18-0 run to start the third quarter to turn a threepoint halftime margin into a 71-44 rout in Saturdays Division IV state championship game, defeating Louisville St. Thomas Aquinas. Thats a pretty unique run. An 18-0 run is good stuff, Best acknowledged after the game. We can be explosive. Once we start getting some turnovers and some run-outs, thats when were pretty good. It is the first state championship for the storied Knights boys basketball program. The last one (halftime speech) was pretty tough to top, senior guard Cam Etzler said of the talking-to that Best gave the team on Saturday. He just really stressed being tough. They (Aquinas) were being tougher than us, flat-out. After a fiery locker room talk on Thursday, Best said this one had a different tone. I was very calm today, he noted. We talked about just a mentality, a toughness. We wanted to take better care of the basketball. We keep it simple and thats really what it came down to. As they have all year long, the Knights used their defense to ignite the rally. Etzler came up with a steal at mid-court and found sophomore Connor Lautzenheiser on the wing for a transition 3-pointer that gave Crestview a 29-23 lead. On the next Aquinas possession, Tyson Bolenbaugh rejected a shot on defense, then scored in the low post at the other end. The transition game, thats what got us going, said senior wing Damian Helm, who had a game-high 20 points on the afternoon. We got our stops, secured the rebounds and then we just converted on the other end. That was big for us to get those easy buckets out in transition. After another Aquinas turnover, it was Lautzenheiser draining another three and suddenly, the Knights led by 11. Helm later added a three and a pair of Bolenbaugh baskets pushed Crestviews margin to 44-23 before Aquinas finally got on the board for the first time in the quarter. It was just our defense, Helm said of the game-changing run. It didnt really hit me until they took that timeout when we were up 19 and I was just like whoa. We were doing some good things out there. Aquinas was 0-for-5 in the quarter and had seven turnovers before getting that first field goal with 2:43 to play in the period. For the Crestview defense, it was a stark contrast to the efficiency they allowed Aquinas in the first half. The black-and-gold Knights made seven of their first 11 shots in the game, including each of their first four from downtown. Aquinas finished the first half at 9-for-18 (50 percent) overall but Crestview held them to 6-for-20 (30 percent) after halftime. I think it all came down to the defensive end, Etzler added. We really buckled down and got some turnovers. That started our offense. Bolenbaugh scored eight points in the third, a part of a 20-3 margin for Crestview in the quarter. The Knights used a 15-4 third period to take control of the state semi-final game versus TriVillage on Thursday night. When we were able to get some shots and handle their pressure, we were able to get some layups, we got some kick-outs for threes. We were able to get in transition a little bit, Best continued. When you knock shots down, that helps the cause. Crestview took a 48-28 advantage into the final period, and the lead never got smaller than 20. Junior guard Preston Zaleski scored on back-to-back possessions, a part of his 5-for-6 effort from the floor. Then, after an Aquinas free throw, Helm scored the next seven consecutive points, the last of which came on a fast-break-turned-3point-play with 3:37 to go that erased any possibility of an Aquinas comeback. Man, Crestview is a good team, said Aquinas coach Matt Hackenberg. They really Dd it up and made it hard for us to get good looks. The Knights took an early 7-2 lead on Saturday, with Lautzenheiser scoring five points in the opening two minutes of action. The speed of Aquinas gave the Knights some trouble, as Crestview coughed up an uncharacteristically-high 11 first-half turnovers. In the first half, I thought we got out to a pretty decent start and did what we wanted to do, and then that tide shifted a little bit, Best noted. Those miscues, combined with the hot Aquinas shooting, had the team from Louisville on the verge of taking a lead late in the second quarter, when Division IV co-Player of the Year Austin Hill misfired on a 3-pointer that would have put Aquinas on top. At that time, Im thinking dont go in, please, or the momentum continues to shift their way, Best added. You dont know how the course of a game is going to go. We werent real sure of the matchups with this team; we knew they were very guard-dominant, very pesky on the defensive end and ran their five-wide offense. When we make up our minds that we want to take away what they want to do and this team has done it all year on the defensive end we feed off of that. Hill averaged more than 17 points per game coming into the contest but the Crestview defense, with Helm drawing the man-to-man assignment, limited Hill to six points on 3-for-6 from the field. We knew their offense mainly ran through three guys and (Hill) was one of them. Coach emphasized just not giving any help off of him, Helm explained. He can fill it up. I knew my teammates were going to get good ball pressure and just take care of business, and I just had to do my job. Everyone was doing their job. Everyone had their part in today game and that was just mine: just staying close to (Hill) and not letting him get rolling. Helm paced the Knights with 20 points, coming on 6-of-12 shooting (3-for-5 3-point field goals) while Bolenbaugh added 15 points and eight rebounds. Coach talked about it, he said we might have an advantage inside, so we tried to attack it, Bolenbaugh noted. All credit to my teammates, they get it in to me a lot. I just went with the flow of the game and tried to put it into the basket. Lautzenheiser shot 4-for-6 from the field for his 11 points with Zaleski adding 10. Etzler contributed five points, four assists and three steals in the victory. I just tried to go out there, enjoy the moment, and have fun, Helm added. Im just thankful the shots fell tonight. Its just great to know that we went out victorious in our last game.

ST. LOUIS Wichita State coach Gregg Marshall walked slowly through the line for post-game handshakes, congratulating every player from Kentucky on advancing to the Sweet 16. When he shook hands with John Calipari, the Wildcats coach whispered, Marvelous season. Marvelous, indeed. Just not quite perfect. The top-seeded Shockers were finally beaten by a team stocked with NBA prospects, the end coming when Fred VanVleets 3-pointer bounced harmlessly off the rim and the buzzer sounded on a 78-76 loss to the Wildcats in the third round of the NCAA tournament. Cleanthony Early scored 31 points and Ron Baker had 20 for the Shockers (35-1), who hadnt lost since last years Final Four while taking an entire city and state on quite a ride. It really has been a magic-carpet ride and to have it end, its something that were going to have to get used to, Marshall said with a drained voice, but I still think in retrospect, well still look back on it and be so proud. Andrew Harrison had 20 points, Aaron Harrison had 19 and Julius Randle contributed 13 points and 10 rebounds for the No. 8 seed Wildcats (26-10), who advanced to face Louisville on Friday in the Midwest Regional semifinals, at long last playing like the preseason No. 1 team in the country. Ive been doing this so long. Ive been in wars, Calipari said. You all understand this was an Elite Eight game. The winner of this should have gone to the Final Four. The game matched the bluest of the blue-bloods, the most successful program in Division I history with eight national championships, against a gritty bunch of upstarts from Wichita State that was trying to become the first team to finish off a perfect season since Indiana in 1976. The game went back and forth the entire way, Kentucky finally taking a 73-71 lead when James Young knocked down a 3-pointer with less than 2 minutes to go. Early answered with a basket for Wichita State and Andrew Harrison made two free throws for Kentucky. Baker banked in a 3 for the Shockers and Randle made two more foul shots for the Wildcats. Both teams were making plays, Marshall added. Back and forth, back and
forth. Earlys two free throws with 9.8 seconds left got the Shockers within 77-76 and they got their chance to add another chapter to their miraculous story when Andrew Harrison made the second of two free throws and Early pulled down the rebound. VanVleet raced up court and called timeout with 3.2 seconds left. Marshall drew up a play that had Tekele Cotton inbounding the ball to VanVleet; after a couple dribbles, he took a shot from the top of the key. But it was wide the entire way, clanking off the rim and sending the Wildcats pouring onto the court to celebrate. We just felt so good beating a great team, said Andrew Harrison, who considered sitting the game out after hurting his elbow in a second-round win over Kansas State. The Midwest Regional showdown came after an entertaining undercard matchup that saw Stanford knock off Kansas and it lived up to every expectation. Kentucky was successful early using its superior size, not only in the paint but also on the perimeter, where the 6-6 Harrison twins dwarfed the 5-11 VanVleet. But after the Wildcats took a 19-15 lead midway through the half, Wichita State ramped up its trademark defense, forcing a series of turnovers and getting right back in the game. VanVleet was the catalyst. On one sequence late in the half, he stripped Aaron Harrison and hit Early in transition; he was fouled slamming over 7-foot Willie CauleyStein. Early made the free throw as the Shockers built a 37-31 lead at the half. I just feel like Im always there when my team needs me, said Early, the breakout star of the Shockers Final Four run a year ago. We feed off each other in positive ways. Early hit another 3-pointer right out of the locker room to match the Shockers biggest lead at 40-31. But VanVleet picked up his third foul moments later and Kentucky took advantage of the Shockers missing their floor general by gradually pulling ahead. I would have liked to have been a little more aggressive, VanVleet added. We had to switch some matchups at the end because of my foul trouble. Its hard to play like that. The game remained a back-and-forth prizefight the rest of the way, neither team
leading by more than five, each answering the other with clutch 3-pointers and pressurefilled free throws. It only made sense that the game would come down to the final possession. Youre going to go through some humps in your life, kind of like this one. Its tough to see us go out like this, Baker added. At the end of the day, someones got to go home.
TENNESSEE 83, MERCER 63 RALEIGH, N.C. Jarnell Stokes had 17 points and a careerhigh-tying 18 rebounds,and Tennessee denied Mercer a second straight upset in the NCAA tournament. Josh Richardson had a career-high 26 points and Antonio Barton added 18 for the 11th-seeded Vols (24-12), who outrebounded Mercer 41-19 and kept the Southeastern Conference perfect in the tournament. They joined Florida and Kentucky in the round of 16 the first time three SEC teams made it that far since 2007. Tennessee will face second-seeded Michigan (278) in a Midwest Regional semifinal Friday night in Indianapolis. Langston Hall had 15 points to lead the 14th-seeded Bears (27-9), who beat Duke in the signature upset of the tournament but couldnt answer Tennessees size. EAST REGIONAL IOWA ST. 85, NORTH CAROLINA 83 SAN ANTONIO DeAndre Kane drove for the game-winning layup with 1.6 seconds left and No. 3 seed Iowa State advanced to the Sweet 16 for the first time since 2000. The Cyclones (28-7) head to Madison Square Garden next week to face No. 7 seed Connecticut in the East Regional semifinals. The Tar Heels (24-10) are gone in the NCAA tournaments opening weekend for the first time in consecutive seasons under coach Roy Williams. North Carolinas Nate Britt raced the ball up court after Kanes basket but time expired before he could reach halfcourt and call a timeout. Officials huddled for several minutes reviewing clock replays before ruling the game was over. Marcus Paige led the Tar Heels with 19 points. SOUTH REGIONAL STANFORD 60, KANSAS 57 Dwight Powell had 15 points and seven rebounds and No. 10 seed Stanford wrapped up its second straight upset at the free-throw line. Chasson Randle added 13 points, six steals and four assists for the Cardinal (23-12), who advanced to the round of 16 for the first time since 2008 also their last NCAA appearance. They beat No. 7 seed New Mexico on Friday. Freshman Andrew Wiggins had just four points on 1-for-6 shooting with four turnovers in what could have been his final college game for Kansas (25-10). Tarik Black had 18 points and six rebounds for the Jayhawks but fouled out with 5:25 to go. Conner Frankamp had 12 points on four 3-pointers, the last two in the final 23 seconds.

Associated Press SEATTLE Tiffany Mitchell scored 24 points, Alaina Coates added 13 and top-seeded South Carolina took a while to pull away from No. 16 seed Cal State Northridge in a 73-58 win on Sunday in the first round of the NCAA tournament. South Carolina (28-4) were the new kids when it came to being a top seed in the NCAAs, garnering the achievement after never being higher than a No. 3 seed in the past. And while the Gamecocks didnt play poorly against the champions of the Big West Conference, it took far longer than expected to finally dispatch the pesky Matadors. South Carolina outscored Northridge 27-11 at the free throw line and had 20 second-chance points. Janae Sharpe led Cal State Northridge (18-15) with 26 points but was held in check for most of the second half. OREGON STATE 55, MIDDLE TENNESSEE STATE 36 SEATTLE Sydney Wiese made six 3-pointers and scored a career-high 26 points and ninth-seeded Oregon State ousted eighthseeded Middle Tennessee State. Wiese put on a shooting display midway through the second half, hitting five 3s in a six-minute span when the Beavers (24-10) blew the game open. Wiese made 7-of-15 shots, had five rebounds and four assists. She was the only Oregon State player in double figures and the only player finding offense on a night scoring was hard to come by. Middle Tennessee was held to a season low in points and lost in the first round of the tournament for the sixth straight year. Ebony Rowe, the Conference USA player of the year, led Middle Tennessee (29-5) with 17 points but shot 7-of-23. The Blue Raiders couldnt overcome going score-
winning streak and looking for its first NCAA tournament win but was limited to 35 percent shooting from the field. Nicole Hamilton led the Pirates with 19 points. PENN STATE 62, WICHITA STATE 56 STATE COLLEGE, Pa. Maggie Lucas scored 22 points, rallying Penn State from an early scare in a 62-56 win over Wichita State in the first round of the NCAA tournament. Lucas led the Lady Lions (23-7) back from an 11-point hole and becoming an unwanted piece of tournament history: A No. 3 seed has never lost a game to a 14. The Shockers (26-7) tried to make it happen but could never sustain the early spurt that would have allowed them to pull off one of the biggest upsets in tournament history. Lucas, the 2-time Big Ten player of the year, led Penn States 17-0 run to open the second half that spurred them into the second round for the fourth straight year. FLORIDA 83, DAYTON 69 STATE COLLEGE, Pa. Cassie Peoples scored 21 points and all five Florida starters scored in double figures, leading the Gators past Dayton in the opening round of the NCAA tournament. The 11th-seeded Gators (20-12) will play Penn State on Tuesday night in the Stanford Regional. In a first round full of lopsided scores, the Gators pulled off a rare upset by a double-digit seed. Jaterra Bonds and Ronni Williams each had 15 points for Florida. Andrea Hoover led the Flyers (23-8) with 22 points and Celeste Edwards scored 15 points. Hoover and Edwards helped the Flyers storm to a 15-point lead in the second before Florida started to rally. The Gators shot at close to a 50-percent mark for most of the second half to wipe out the deficit and stun Dayton.

Thomas Walkup had 22 points and 11 rebounds for the Lumberjacks while Desmond Haymon had 17 points and Nikola Gajic added 10. The Lumberjacks stayed with the Bruins through much of the first half before the mismatch in talent and pedigree became obvious. The Bruins, in the NCAA tournament for the 46th time and winners of 11 national titles, went on a 12-2 run in just less than 3 minutes, starting with a runner in the lane by Alfords son, Bryce. Alford also had a 3-pointer that helped UCLA take a 32-21 lead with 5:44 left. Three-pointers by Deshaunt Walker and Haymon closed the gap to five points before the Bruins finished the half on a 10-5 run to lead 42-32. Tony Parker had two layups and Adams a 3-pointer to help keep the lead in double digits. Powell opened the second half with two big plays, a slam dunk and then a coast-to-coast drive with a behind-the-back move followed by a layup for a 46-32 lead.

Stanford was 9-for-12 at the free throw line over the final 2:04. Frankamp missed a third 3-point attempt off the glass near the buzzer in a bid to tie it. UCLA 77, STEPHEN F. AUSTIN 60 SAN DIEGO Jordan Adams scored 19 points and UCLA beat Stephen F. Austin 77-60 on Sunday to reach the Sweet 16 of the NCAA tournament for the first time since 2008. The fourth-seeded Bruins (28-8) will play Florida, the tournaments overall top seed, in the South Regional semifinals on Thursday in Memphis. Firstyear coach Steve Alford has won as many NCAA tournament games in three days as the Bruins had in the previous five seasons combined. Alford replaced Ben Howland, who was fired a year ago after the Bruins lost to Minnesota in their NCAA tournament opener. This is UCLAs first trip to the regionals since Howland got the Bruins to their third straight Final Four in 2008. Stephen F. Austin (32-3), the No. 12 seed, had its 29-game winning streak
(Continued from page 6) Martyce Kimbrough had 22 points including all four of his second-half points in the final 93 seconds to lead Lima Central Catholic past Cleveland Villa AngelaSt. Joseph 64-62 on Saturday in the Division III state boys final. After VASJ (22-8) had cut the lead to a point on 6-10 junior Carlton Braggs 3-pointer with 6 seconds left, two LCC players missed three consecutive free throws. But Brian Parkers heave from midcourt was just short, touching the front of the rim. I believed the ball was bouncing our way today, Kill said. And hopefully that one shot wasnt going to be a backbreaker. The title was the second for the seventh-ranked Thunderbirds (25-4). Bragg had 23 for defending champ VASJ, denied its sixth title. The Thunderbirds led by 14 midway through the third quarter. But the Vikings would not go away. LCC, staked to a lead after Kimbrough went off in the first half, never let VASJ get the lead. After Xavier Simpson, who had 18 points for LCC, hit a high-arching floater with 5:41 left, the Thunderbirds were on top 51-44. But VASJ ran off the next seven points the first five by Dererk Pardon and the last two on free throws by Bragg to tie it with 4:31 left. Pardon ended up with 17 points and 15 rebounds. Cory Stewart and Simpson again on a looping shot over the outstretched arm of Bragg gave the Thunderbirds a 55-51 lead. Bragg hit two foul shots only to have Kimbrough scoreless in the second half to that point make two more to get the margin back to four points. Kimbrough hit the first of two shots with 37.8 seconds remaining for a 60-57 lead, then was fouled after a huge offensive rebound by Dantez Walton and hit another free throw five seconds later to make it 61-57. Simpson made a foul shot before Parker sank two foul shots with 13.8 seconds on
the clock to cut the lead to 62-59. Simpson made another free throw with 11.5 seconds left before Bragg one of the most highly recruited juniors in the Midwest came off a pick and drained the 3 with 6 seconds left. The Thunderbirds then missed two foul shots, had a follow shot blocked and were fouled again with 1.7 seconds remaining. This time Tre Cobbs hit the first of two shots. When he missed the second, Parker dribbled to near midcourt and flipped a shot that was right on line but came up just short. Parker, a first-team allstater and also a co-player of the year, who finished with 15 points. LCCs players celebrated in a large pile. Jake Williams, an undersized 6-3 center, was an unsung star for LCC, not only playing tough defense but scoring 12 points and grabbing seven rebounds against VASJs large (6-11 and 6-8) frontcourt. Exactly 17 years earlier, to the day, Kill had led Lincolnview High School to a state championship. Asked if his coaching title was an upset, he added, Not in my heart.
NORWALK 65, COLUMBUS WATTERSON 58 With 4 minutes remaining and Norwalk hanging on to a suddenly tenuous lead over defending champion Columbus Watterson, Truckers guard Ben Haraway came up lame. But Haraway was able to return despite a twisted ankle and his presence was huge down the stretch as the Truckers beat the Eagles 65-58 for the Division II state championship on Saturday. Haraway scored 29 points, scoring nine points after he hobbled briefly to the bench, to lead the way. He hit a free throw after limping to the free-throw line, then after Watterson pulled within four points with under a minute left, he made four foul shots in the final 36.6 seconds to lock up the victory which came in Norwalks first-ever trip to the states final four.
First-team All-Ohioan Jeff Thomas added 18 points and 10 rebounds for the Truckers (29-1), who were ranked No. 2 in the final regular-season AP poll. Second-team All-Ohioan Matt Hughes had 23 points and 10 rebounds for fourthranked Watterson (26-3), which hit just 4-of-24 behind the arc. Cody Calhoun added 15 points and Matt Lehmann had 11. Norwalk made 8-of-11 shots from the field in the first quarter, scoring the final six points, to take a 20-14 lead it never relinquished. The Truckers led 31-19 at the half and 42-33 through three. But Watterson, as canny and resilient a team as youll find, fought back to cut the gap to 61-57 with 53 seconds left on Hughes slashing drive through the paint. After coach Steve Gray called a timeout to settle his team, Haraway took an inbounds pass and dashed the length of the court before being fouled with 36.6 seconds left. He made both foul shots to give the Truckers some breathing room. Hughes came back with a free throw to make it a 5-point game but Haraway was fouled again while Norwalk spread the floor. He toed the line with 16.7 seconds left and made both finishing 15-of-19 on free throws. The Eagles were only 16-of-22 as a team, compared to the Truckers 23-of-33. LAKEWOOD ST. EDWARD 62, UPPER ARLINGTON 58, OT The play wasnt even designed to go to Marsalis Hamilton. Yet he hit the shot heard round the state. Hamilton hit a tying 3-pointer at the regulation buzzer,and Associated Press first-team All-Ohioan Kipper Nichols hit two clinching free throws in overtime to propel Lakewood St. Edward to a 62-58 victory over Upper Arlington on Saturday night for the Division I state championship. In the overtime, Nichols stepped to the line with St. Ed (26-2) hanging on to a 60-58 lead with 5.8 seconds left. He drained both to clinch the Eagles second title and first since 1998. They had been thwarted six other times in the state tournament. Danny Hummer and first-team allstater Kevin Vannatta each had 15 points for the Golden Bears (27-2), who were seeking their first championship since 1937. The Golden Bears led most of the game but were never on top in the overtime. It appeared UA would pull the stunner after making two 3s late in regulation. Vannatta made a 3 over Nichols on the left wing. After Nichols was long on a 15-foot jumper, Wes Davis poured in a 3 from the left foul-line extended and the lead was 48-42 with 3:21 remaining. St. Ed, scrambling on defense and rushing back on the break, cut it to 48-47 when Hummer was fouled with 35 seconds left. He made both, part of a clutch 6-for-6 showing at the line.
STARTING TIME Reds: Mike Leake made his fourth spring start. He missed one start early in spring with discomfort in his abdominal region sustained during an offseason workout. Leake pitched four innings in his last start, allowing one run and three hits. Leake gave up four doubles in a 6-run second inning. The Brewers scored eight runs off him in four innings. TRAINERS ROOM Reds: The Reds will start the season with six players
Associated Press Brewers 9, Reds 1 GOODYEAR, Ariz. Lyle Overbay got good news this morning and celebrated with his bat. Overbay, who was told that he had made the Brewers opening day roster early Sunday, had two doubles and a single in Milwaukees 9-1 victory over the Reds. Jonathan Lucroy drove in three runs with a double and a home run as the Brewers roughed up Mike Leake, scoring six runs in the second inning. Milwaukee had four doubles in the inning. Logan Schaefer doubled and scored in the first and added another in the second. Jay Bruce had an RBI double for the Reds run off Milwaukee starter Matt Garza. Garza has one more scheduled spring training start. Lucroys solo home run off Pedro Beato in the seventh was his second of the spring. Beato is one of the pitchers who will fill injury voids in the Reds bullpen. The run Beato allowed is the third hes allowed in eight innings this spring.

Right-handers Jonathan Broxton (elbow) and Mat Latos (elbow, knee) will be sidelined to start the season. Infielders Jack Hannahan (shoulder) and Skip Schumaker (shoulder) will not be ready in time. Minor aches and pains for right-handers Johnny Cueto (shoulder) and Homer Bailey (groin) are not expected to put them on the disabled list. Catcher Devin Mesoraco has a strained oblique but is expected to be ready. CHAPMAN PAYS A VISIT Aroldis Chapman left Banner Good Samaritan Medical Center on Saturday and returned to the Reds clubhouse four days after he was hit above the left eye by a batted ball on Wednesday.
Angels 5, Indians 2 TEMPE, Ariz. Albert Pujols tripled and doubled to back a scoreless start by Garrett Richards in the Los Angeles Angels 5-2 victory over the Cleveland Indians on Sunday. Richards, the No. 3 starter in a revamped rotation, gave the Angels the kind of pitching performance theyve been looking for in his fourth spring start. He allowed three hits over 6 1/3 shutout innings in his fourth spring start, lowering his ERA to 3.50. The right-hander went 7-8 with a 4.16 ERA in 47 games, including 17 starts, during his first full season with the Angels in 2013. After a slow start, Pujols brought his spring average up to .326 with two extra-base hits in two at-bats. Josh Hamilton had two hits in three at-bats with two RBIs. Pujols tripled to right-center in the first to score Mike Trout. Hamiltons grounder drove in Pujols, who also doubled in the fifth to set up Hamiltons sacrifice fly.

Anyone who has seen the many movies made about World War II knows that soldiers who had forgotten the days password, or who happened upon Allied troops who werent from their own company, were always asked something like Who won the 1939 World Series? It was a question designed to prove that they were real Americans and not enemy spies. And all real Americans would know the answer, and theyd also probably know the names of every player on each team, because everybody had listened to the games on the radio -- young and old, black and white, Jew and Gentile. If I had to answer a similar question today -Who won the 2012 World Series? -- they would shoot me on the spot because I havent got a clue. And the sad thing is, I watched the entire series. The only thing Im sure of is that it couldnt have been the Cubs. Like many people, I havent lost my memory. Ive just handed it over to Google and Wikipedia for the duration. Why bother to remember anything when those two will do it for you -- and better? I didnt remember the Yankees beat the Cincinnati Reds in the 1939 World Series; I Googled it. Are there any questions you could ask today that every American would know the answer to, but few foreigners? Can you name all the Kardashians? Can you name the winner of last seasons Survivor? Who won American Idol two years ago? Who won the Super Bowl two years ago? What movie won Best Picture at last years Academy Awards? Who is the host of Jeopardy!? What time of day is The View on? What was the No. 1 country song last year? How about the No. 1 rap song? Few people can answer all those questions because there are very few things all of us watch

or listen to at Jim Mullen the same time anymore. Even dating sites are dividing people into smaller and smaller groups. Ive started seeing ads for dating websites targeted to specific groups, instead of singles in general: FarmersOnly.com, ChristianMingle. com, BlackPeopleMeet.com, Mate1.com for people over 30, ProfessionalSinglesOver40. com, OurTime.com for singles over 50, and SingleParentMeet.com. Sounds like its OK to be a single parent of any age. Or maybe single parents are just not that picky about who they date. But even these categories are probably too vague for a lot of people. Would a dairy farmer really want to date someone who raises beef cattle? Would a Baptist want to date a Catholic? Would their families approve? How long before we see ads for MethodistMingle.com or LutheranLove. com? More and more specific dating services are sure to follow as time goes by with something for everyone. Can SingleUndertakersUnder35. com or DrunkenGamblersWithoutPartners.com be that far away? How did people ever hook up before the Internet? I dont remember many people being single before the Internet came along -- is there a connection? Maybe the more connected we are, the less connected we become. Or is it something even more basic? Could money have something to do with it? I doubt well ever see a dating site called LonelyProAthletes. DISTRIBUTED BY UNIVERSAL UCLICK com, SingleHedgeFundManagers.com or FOR UFS MovieStarMatch.com because those people dont seem to have trouble finding dates. Lots and lots of dates. You might say, But look how many of them break up or get divorced! Yes, but so do regular people. When a couple two blocks away from you splits up, you dont read about it in the newspaper; its not splashed on the magazine covers at the grocery store. You might not even hear about it. Until you see the two parties show up on WontMakeTheSameMistakeAgain.com
forward or backward is a palindrome -- racecar, kayak and level are examples. What is the term for a word or phrase that spells different words or phrases forward and backward? An example would be evil, which spells live in reverse. -- N.H.J., Stuart, Fla. A: There are several terms that would fit, but my favorite is the word semordnilap, which is itself a semordnilap of palindromes. Another example is desserts and stressed. Q: Prior to World War II, what was World War I known as? -- W.L., Syracuse, N.Y. A: The war had several names, including the Great War, the War to End All Wars or the World War. I am sure there were other names, but these seem to be the most popular. Q: Stringbean from Hee Haw was murdered while the show was still on. Did they ever catch the culprit? -- S.J.S., Ionia, Iowa A: David Stringbean Akeman, the banjo player on Hee Haw, and his wife, Estelle, were shot and killed when they interrupted a home invasion after a performance at the Grand Ole Opry on Nov. 10, 1973. Rumors swirled that Akeman kept large amounts of cash in his home, as he didnt trust banks. The robbers didnt find any money but took some guns and a chain saw. Cousins Marvin Douglas Brown and John A. Brown, both 23, were identified as the culprits. Both men were tried and convicted of murder. Marvin Brown died of natural causes in 2008; John Brown was denied parole in 2011 and is not eligible again until 2017. In 1996, $20,000 cash was found behind a chimney brick in the Akemans house. Q: American traitor Benedict Arnold offered West Point to the British. During negotiations, American intelligence discovered the deception and Arnold was forced to flee. What was the name of the British ship he used to flee America? -- I.J., Concord, Calif. A: Benedict Arnold fled on the Vulture. The story of Benedict Arnold (1741-1801) is fascinating. I encourage everyone to read what happened to this man, and why he turned his back on the country he so bravely fought for. Q: I once saw a poem written in calligraphy. The opening words were, The day a child realizes that all adults are imperfect. The poem is not long, and it goes on to describe the growing up of that child. Do you know the entire text? -- M.L., Aiken, Ga. A: The day the child realizes that all adults are imperfect, he becomes an adolescent; the day he forgives them, he becomes an adult; the day he forgives himself, he becomes wise. It was written by Alden Nowlan, poet, novelist and playwright (1933-1983).

for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers, or PARCC. Joe Willhoft, the executive director of the Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium, told reporters there will be snags, and thats in part due to the nature of what a field test is a test run and an opportunity to see what works and doesnt. Already, out of concern there would be technical problems, Smarter Balanced delayed by a week to this week the start of its field tests. We have a saying in Smarter Balanced that if nothing goes wrong in the field test, then actually we have failed, Willhoft said. While opposition to the standards has been multi-dimensional, some critics take issue with the tests and how the results will be used because the tests are designed to replace the annual assessments given in states. Also complicating matters are the new teacher evaluation systems rolling out in many states that rely, in part, on student performance on annual exams. Questions have been raised about when or if the Common Core-based assessments should count on these evaluations. Supporters are warning that scores on the new assessments will drop compared with the old tests, but they say they will be a more accurate measurement of student knowledge. The field tests themselves have generated other concerns. Some states officials worry about double testing, meaning some students are participating in both the field test and taking a state exam. In response, the Education Department gave California permission to just give the field tests to all students in third- to eighth-grades, meaning they wont be given the state assessment this year. Similar permission was given to other states, including Idaho, Montana, and South Dakota, according to the Education Department. Smarter Balanced and PARCC were created to help states pool resources to develop the tests. But some states have opted to use different ones. Florida, for example, recently signed a contract with the nonprofit American Institutes for Research to develop an assessment for its standards, which are largely based on the Common Core standards.
PERTH, Australia Rain was expected to hamper the hunt today for the missing Malaysia Airlines jet, as a growing number of planes focus on an expanded area of the south Indian Ocean where a French satellite detected potential debris. Australian Maritime Safety Authoritys rescue coordination center said the search area was expanded from 59,000 to 68,500 square kilometers (22,800-26,400 square miles), including a new separate area because of data provided by France on Sunday. The U.S. Pacific command said it was sending a black box locator to the region in case a debris field is located. The Towed Pinger Locator has highly sensitive listening capability so that if the wreck site is located, it can hear the black box pinger down to a depth of about 20,000 feet (6,100 meters), Cmdr. Chris Budde, a U.S. Seventh Fleet operations officer, said in a statement. Two Chinese Ilyushin IL-76 planes joined the search from Perth, increasing the number of aircraft to 10 from eight a day earlier, AMSA said. It said the weather in the search area, about 2,500 kilometers (1,550 miles) southwest of Perth, was expected to deteriorate with rain likely.
Local government employment (-3,400) and federal government employment (-600) also saw decreases while the state government employment numbers stayed the same. Those losses were partially overcome by gains in manufacturing (+3,700), education and health services (+2,600), trade/transportation/utilities (+2,400), professional/business/other services (+2,400) and information services (+200). The monthly changes mirrored what has happened in Ohio over the past 12 months with goods-producing, manufacturing and the professional services sectors continuing to increase the number of employed while the number of local, state and federal employees has declined (-5,900). In the past year, nonfarm employment has grown in Ohio by 50,000 people. The county-by-county breakdown for unemployment will be released on Tuesday. (All data and statistics are produced by the Ohio Department of Jobs and Family Services and the U.S. Australian Transport Minister Warren Truss said nothing Department of Labor, Bureau of note was found Sunday, which he described as a fruitless of Labor Statistics.) day. Its going to be a challenge, but well stick at it, he told Australian Broadcasting Corp. radio before the first aircraft left Perth at dawn. He said that the latest search area based on French radar data was 850 kilometers (530 miles) north of the previous search zone. He said it was not the same area that had been identified as the most likely place where the aircraft may have entered the sea, but weve got to check out all the options. Were just, I guess, clutching at whatever little piece of information comes along to try and find a place where we might be able to concentrate the efforts, he added. A cyclone bearing down on the Australian northwest coast could stir up less favorable weather, he said. Flight 370 vanished March 8 with 239 people aboard while en route from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, to Beijing, setting off a multinational search that has turned up no confirmed pieces and nothing conclusive on what happened to the jet. The latest French satellite data came to light on Sunday as Australian authorities coordinating the search sent planes and a ship to try to locate a wooden pallet that appeared to be surrounded by straps of different lengths and colors.

ways for moving petrochemicals, was shut for a second day Sunday. As many as 60 vessels were backed up both trying to get out and get in. Over 380 people and weve ordered more, Penoyer said plus a fleet of oil-retrieving skimmers and other vessels deploying some 60,000 feet of containment booms around environmentally sensitive areas worked to mitigate the damage. The area is home to popular bird habitats, especially during the approaching migratory shorebird season. Officials said they had scattered reports of wildlife damage but no specifics. Some black tar-like globs, along with a dark line of a sticky, oily substance, could be detected along the shoreline of the Texas City dike, a 5-mile-long jetty that juts into Galveston Bay across from a tip of Galveston Island.
