Jeff girls smash state record in 4x200

Fri - 17 May Written by Jim Ecker

DES MOINES - Maliya Rattliffe, Lucy Schneekloth, Jasmine Blue and Rachel "Bronco" Broghammer have been chasing the Jefferson school record in the 4x200 relay all spring.

They finally got it Friday and quite a bit more.

The Jefferson quartet shattered the all-time state record in the 4x200 when they blazed to victory in 1 minute, 40.94 seconds at the Class 4A state meet at Drake Stadium.

The J-Hawks splintered the old state mark of 1:41.0 set 38 years ago by Woodbine High School with the great Debbie Esser in 1975.

Kirkwood streak, season end at nationals

Fri - 17 May Written by Christopher Lay

A two-out RBI single in the bottom of the ninth inning ended Kirkwood's softball season Friday.

Stephanie Cruse's hit lifted Cowley County, Kan., past the Eagles, 3-2, in an elimination round game of the NJCAA Division II national softball tournament.

The Eagles had their 50-game winning streak snapped earlier in the day by Phoenix College, 2-1. That loss, the team's first since March 18, put Kirkwood in the losers bracket.

Harrison's hit delivers Kernels in 12th

Fri - 17 May Written by Mike Condon

Another night, another walk-off win for the Cedar Rapids Kernels.

Although it wasn't nearly as dramatic at Byron Buxton's walk-off grand slam to rally the Kernels to a 7-6 win on Thursday over Burlington, Travis Harrison's one-out single in the bottom of the 12th on Friday night produced the same result.

His grounder just inside third base brought home Jorge Polanco from second, giving Cedar Rapids a 4-3 win over Kane County in the opener of a four-game series before 2,151 fans at Veterans Memorial Stadium.
