Kansas State was picked as an at-large selection in the NCAA Tournament for the second straight year Sunday evening when the Wildcats were revealed as a 9-seed in the South Region. K-State (22-11) will face 8-seed Creighton, and former Wildcat guard Marcus Foster, in a first round game on Friday in Charlotte, NC. If K-State advances, it would almost surely face 1-seed Virginia in the second round. Game times and TV listings had not been released as of 6:30 Sunday. The Wildcats beat Wake Forest as part of last season’s “First Four” in Dayton, Ohio before losing to 6-seed Cincinnati.…
Hours before tipoff of Friday night’s Big 12 semifinal, Kansas State learned it would not have its best player on the court. Just two minutes into the game, the Wildcats’ second-best player went down as well. That left Bruce Weber’s team without 45 percent of its offensive production against a potential one-seed in the NCAA Tournament. Against long odds, K-State fought. They were just outgunned. No. 9 Kansas topped the Wildcats 83-67 at Sprint Center to advance to Saturday’s title game. Dean Wade missed the game with a foot injury he aggravated in Thursday’s win over TCU. The All-Big 12…
TOPEKA — A new law in Kansas promises harsher sentences repeat drunken drivers who kill or injure others. Gov. Jeff Colyer on Friday signed “Caitlin’s Law.” It takes effect in July and stiffens penalties for drivers who cause accidents while intoxicated or while circumventing restrictions placed on them because of DUI convictions. Colyer said state officials hope tougher penalties will send a message to people with a history of driving under the influence. The presumed prison sentence for a person with a previous DUI conviction will be nearly 8 years, rather than 5.5 years. The new law is named for…
Kansas State University’s Black Student Union is again the best in the Big 12 Conference, according to a press release from KSU Friday.

There will be no charges against members of the Manhattan High School football team for their part in the reported “birthday beatdowns” that made headlines last fall. According to media reports Thursday, a letter sent to the Riley County Attorney’s Office from Lyon County Attorney Marc Goodman said there was not enough admissible evidence to gain a conviction. Goodman was appointed as a special prosecutor in the case after the Riley County Attourney’s Office recused itself. Riley County Attorney Barry Wilkerson said in December that his office has two employees who have a child or relative who are members of…
Kansas State forward Dean Wade is unlikely to play in tonight’s Big 12 semifinal against Kansas, according to two sources close to the program. Wade is suffering from a foot injury he aggravated in recent weeks. “I think they want to focus on the NCAA Tournament and don’t want to take any chances,” one source said. On Monday, Wade was selected to the Big 12’s First Team by the league’s coaches. He ranks among the Big 12 leaders this season in most categories, including scoring, rebounds, steals, and three-point percentage. K-State advanced to the semifinal by beating TCU, 66-64, in overtime Thursday…
KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Kansas State’s Barry Brown scored the go-ahead layup with 11.2 seconds left in overtime, and Alex Robinson missed a pair of foul shots at the other end for TCU, allowing the Wildcats to escape with a 66-64 victory in the Big 12 Tournament quarterfinals on Thursday. The Horned Frogs, who forced OT on Desmond Bane’s buzzer-beating 3-pointer, had the ball with the game tied at 64 and 34.5 seconds to go. But when Robinson’s pass was deflected out of bounds, a video review showed TCU’s Vladimir Brodziansky touched it last and Kansas State was given the ball. Brown was fouled while converting a…
The office of Republican Gov. Jeff Colyer announced Thursday afternoon that it would send a letter to President Donald Trump expressing Kansas’ support for the North American Free Trade Agreement — otherwise known as NAFTA — while also backing the administration’s efforts to update and improve the trade pact between the United States, Canada and Mexico in light of technological advances. According to a press release from the governor’s office, the letter highlights the importance of NAFTA to Kansas, supporting over 120,000 jobs dependent on trade with Canada and Mexico and accounting for more than one-third of the state’s total…
