Hays missed their last seven shots of the second quarter while Goodland made their last seven attempts pushing the Cowgirls to a 34-17 halftime advantage.

The Indians trailed 14-6 before Carly Lang banked in a three pointer to beat the first quarter buzzer and Ashlyn Flax opened the second quarter with a three pointer of her own to bring Hays within two points at 14-12.&nbsp;

The rest of the quarter belonged to Goodland who went on a 20-5 run over the next seven and half minutes. Part of the big run came in the final three minutes after Hays trimmed their deficit down to six points. Goodland closed the second quarter on an 11-0 run.

Goodland led by as many as 25 in the third quarter before Hays made some headway. Nine straight points by the Indians cut the lead down to 16 in the third quarter, but they would get no closer until the final two minutes of the game when Hays closed on an 8-0 run for the final margin of 54-41.

Hays was led by Carly Lang who tied a career high with 13. Ashlyn Flax set a career high with 10. Goodland was led by Talexa Weeter scoring 15 and Lindsey Cure added 12. The two sophomores average 30 points per game together.

The senior's bucket at the 2:30 mark, FHSU's first basket of the second quarter, pushed the Tigers in front for good.

&nbsp;RUSSELLVILLE, Ark. – The Great American Conference released its Preseason Coaches Poll on Wednesday (Jan. 20) for the upcoming spring season, which begins in late February. The coaches picked Fort Hays State second among the seven teams, though the Tigers received three first place votes out of the seven possible first place votes. The Tigers were the GAC regular season champion in 2019. Rogers State tops the poll with 34 votes, while receiving the four other first place votes possible. FHSU was close behind with 31. Northeastern State received 27 votes to sit third on the list. Rogers State was the GAC Tournament Champion in 2019, but FHSU was the only team from the GAC to make the NCAA Tournament field as the conference tournament winner did not receive an automatic bid to the national tournament. The spring schedule among GAC teams consists of six matches with one contest against each member. FHSU plans to play two matches at home, two on the road, and two at neutral sites. The GAC plans to hold a conference tournament after the six-match schedule, taking place April 10 and 17, but there is no national tournament this season due to the NCAA canceling its championships for fall sports back in 2020.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes remains in the NFL’s concussion protocol, but practiced in a limited capacity on Wednesday, raising hopes the reigning Super Bowl MVP can play in Sunday’s AFC title game against Buffalo. 

The Chiefs typically breeze through practice on Wednesday with little contact before ramping things up on Thursday, and coach Andy Reid said that fit perfectly with what Mahomes was able to do. 

Reid didn’t say what phase of the five-step process Mahomes is in to be cleared to play, but the work he described his quarterback doing coincides with the fourth step.

The Kansas State High School Activities Association Board of
Directors voted Wednesday to allow up to four fans per participant at
activities starting Jan. 29. 

The measure approved by the board, 46-27, also allows local
school districts to have stricter limitations.

In December, the board voted to allow only two family members
to attend winter sports events and other activities until Jan. 28.


KSHSAA Executive Director Bill Faflick told the member
schools that local control is “absolutely appropriate.”

“If you’re not ready for four (spectators) in your facility,
then that is your call,” Faflick said. “We believe this is a good action our
executive board put forth and now it comes down to our schools to implement.”

He added masking and social distancing is still required by
all those in attendance and participants that are not actively taking part in
the game or sport.

Thomas More Prep-Marian Athletic Director Troy Schulte told Hays Post on Wednesday that the administration has not made a final decision on the most recent action and that they will consider the changes.

Hays High Athletic Director Lance Krannawitter said they are in the process of discussing the issue. He said they are taking into consideration several factors, including the total number of participants that can attend and still adhere to social distancing practices.

The Ellis school district will adopt the changes approved by
the state. Athletic Director Derek Schoenthaler said the district’s policy is to follow KSHSAA’s
ruling.

Citing limited space, the Victoria policy will still only
allow two spectators per participant. Athletic Director Dan Rogers said they do
not limit it to parents but still only two fans are allowed.

🏀🎧 FHSU coaches hold weekly press conference  

WACO, Texas (AP) — Jared Butler hit a 3-pointer on the first shot of the game and No. 2 Baylor jumped out to a big lead. The standout guard kept scoring points — and making plays when No. 9 Kansas tried to get close late.

Butler had a season-high 30 points and eight assists as the Bears remained undefeated with a 77-69 victory Monday night over No. 9 Kansas, which has lost consecutive Big 12 games for the first time in nearly eight years.

“It’s a team that wins the game. Me trying to do it all by myself, it’s never worked out that way,” Butler said, deferring some of the credit. “To win the Big 12, we’re going to need all 15 guys, we need everybody, we need the staff. I just make sure we play a team game, and I think we’re unbeatable when we play that way.”

Butler and these Bears (13-0, 6-0 Big 12) led throughout in a matchup of this season’s preseason league favorite and the team that has won or shared 15 of the last 16 regular-season titles. The first of Butler’s seven 3-pointers was part of their opening 11-2 spurt, and they led by as many as 16 in the first half.

“They were real focused, like we’ve been for every game,” Baylor coach Scott Drew said.

Kansas (10-4, 4-3) played for the first time since a 75-70 loss last Tuesday at Oklahoma State before the Jayhawks’ scheduled game Saturday was postponed because of COVID-19 issues in Iowa State’s program.

The Jayhawks were within 65-60 with 3:18 left after Jalen Wilson drove the baseline for a slam that capped an 8-0 run. Butler then hit a 3 at the other end, and Kansas never got closer.

When Kansas had closed to 56-51 midway though the second half after a turnover by Butler led to a dunk by Ochai Agbaji, Butler responded with a pass to Mark Vital for a dunk. Butler then followed a turnover by Agbaji with a 3-pointer.

Coach Bill Self’s team hadn’t lost consecutive Big 12 games since a three-game skid in February 2013 against Oklahoma State, TCU and Oklahoma.

“I’m not leaving out of here mad. I’m leaving out here disappointed, without question,” Self said. “Certainly they were better than us tonight.”

MaCio Teague added 13 points and Davion Mitchell 10 for the Bears. Vital had 10 rebounds, along with an impressive block on what would have been a breakaway dunk for Kansas.

Christian Braun had 14 of his 17 points for Kansas in the first half, while Agbaji had 13 of his 16 points after halftime. Marcus Garrett had nine points and eight assists, but also had five turnovers.

Butler had nine points in the game’s first five minutes. That came two days after he was scoreless until scoring seven points in the final seven minutes of a 68-60 win at Texas Tech that was Baylor’s first game this season decided by fewer than 10 points.

Baylor was up 37-21 following another 3 by Butler that prompted Self to call his third timeout. That came only seconds before what would have been the under-four media stoppage, but he didn’t wait after the 3 that was set up when Matthew Mayer stole a bad pass by Garrett.

Kansas also played No. 1 Gonzaga this season, losing to the Bulldogs 102-90 in the season opener.

“Well, I would be shocked if there’s a third (team) that fits into that category,” Self said. “The games were actually pretty similar. ... We came back and tied Gonzaga, didn’t quite get close enough to do that today. I think they’re both terrific.”

Kansas: The Jayhawks are 98-14 following a loss under Self. Their last eight losses overall have been to Top 25 teams. ... If not for Braun’s effort in the first half, when he made all four of his 3-pointers, the Jayhawks could have been in a much bigger hole. There was a stretch of just over four minutes when he outscored Baylor 11-10 on his own.

“We would have been buried if it wasn’t for CB making two or three 3s, but after that we settled in and did some good things,” Self said.

Baylor: The Bears are 13-0 for the fourth time in school history — the other times were in 1911-12, 2011-12 and 2016-17. They are 6-0 in Big 12 for the second season in a row. Baylor is 9-1 against ranked teams the past two seasons.

Kansas is at Oklahoma on Saturday, only two weeks after holding on at home for a 63-59 win over the Sooners.

🤼No. 12 Wrestling Dominates Emmanuel College, 41-6

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Kansas City Chiefs forced the Cleveland Browns to punt in the waning minutes Sunday with star quarterback Patrick Mahomes out with a concussion. 

Then 35-year-old backup Chad Henne showed some moxie with a long third-down scramble and a fourth-down completion to Tyreek Hill with just over a minute left to give the Chiefs a first down and allowing them to run out the clock on a 22-17 victory in the divisional round of the playoffs. 

They advanced to their third straight AFC title game and will face the Buffalo Bills next Sunday.

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — A depleted roster forced Texas deep into its bench for seldom-used Kamaka Hepa, whose biggest moments this season have been as the Longhorns’ biggest cheerleader on the sideline.

Given his chance, Hepa delivered the big shots on the court Saturday night, scoring 15 points as the No. 4 Longhorns rebounded from their first Big 12 loss of the season by beating Kansas State 82-67.

Hepa, who had played in only three games, started in place of freshman forward Greg Brown, who was one of three Longhorns (11-2, 5-1) held out for reasons not immediately disclosed. Hepa made five of Texas’ 12 3-pointers in the blowout.

“I ultimately want our team to succeed and when our team succeeds, I succeed,” Hepa said. “There’s no reason to pout about not playing ... not making shots. Whatever the case may be, it’s that underlying love I have for my coaches, and that I have for my teammates.”

With the emergence of Brown, one of the top freshmen in the country, Hepa initially planned to redshirt this season.

“Then the NCAA just said this would be a free year for everybody,” Hepa said.

The Longhorns broke the game open with an 18-0 run midway through the first half keyed by a burst of 3-pointers and a defensive press that rattled the Wildcats. Andrew Jones made three 3-pointers in the half and the Longhorns turned six early Kansas State turnovers into 14 points to quickly pull away.

Hepa made two early 3-pointers, then swished two more from the left wing in the opening minutes of the second half to snuff out any hopes of a Wildcats rally. Febres, who hadn’t played since knee surgery last March, finished with six points.

“That’s the way a team is supposed to be,” Texas coach Shaka Smart said. “We knew with those three guys out, we’d need contributions from guys who haven’t played much ... The more guys you have with a passion for each other, the more success you’re going to have.”

Kansas State had to postpone a game earlier in the week because it didn’t have six health scholarship players due to COVID and injury problems, and had only nine available Saturday night. Texas was missing Brown, who is averaging 11.8 points, and top reserves Kai Jones and Brock Cunningham, forcing the Longhorns to go deep into their bench for Hepa and shooting guard Jase Febres.

Smart said Brown, Kai Jones and Cunningham would not play in the next scheduled game against Iowa State on Wednesday. The status of that game is uncertain as Iowa State had its Saturday matchup with Kansas postponed because of COVID-19 problems within the Cyclones program.

Davion Bradford led Kansas State (5-9, 1-5) with 14 points.

“Losing isn’t a habit. Losing has never been a habit,” Bradford said. “We’re going to get there one day. We’ll keep fighting.”

Kansas State: The Wildcats were smothered early on offense and never recovered in dropping their fourth straight loss.. The turnovers forced by Texas’ press led to easy Longhorns baskets and the half-court offense was too often caught deep in the shot clock.

Texas: The Longhorns have found a dead-eye shooting touch from long range. In the last three games, Jones hit the game-winning 3-pointer in the final seconds against West Virginia, the Longhorns made 13 3-pointers in a loss to Texas Tech and kept launching wide open shots against the Wildcats.

Texas led 61-36 when Jericho Sims led a fast break with an quick outlet pass to Courtney Ramey, who floated a soft lob off the backboard and right back to the trailing Sims for a flying, two-handed dunk. Sims and Ramey each scored 14 points.

Kansas State plays at Oklahoma on Tuesday.
