The C Clyde Run and Midge’s Mile had an uninvited guest Saturday. The fundraiser’s namesake, C Clyde Jones, says this is the first time in ten years his fundraiser for Shepherd’s Crossing has been rained out. Neither rolling thunder nor downpouring rain could dampen anybody’s spirit at the event. Would-be runners lined up, crowded under a pavilion, to get a hug from the local celebrity. Jones agreed he’s likely the reason there was a large crowd despite the weather conditions at Frank Anneberg Park in Manhattan. In June, hundreds of guests celebrated with Jones, who suffered a medical emergency the…
BOSTON (AP) — After scratching out just six runs in a four-game losing streak, the Kansas City batters felt like they owed their pitchers a little more support. Then they realized Brady Singer didn’t really need it. Singer delivered his second straight scoreless outing, pitching out of a bases-loaded, nobody out jam to deliver six shutout innings on Saturday and help the Royals beat the Boston Red Sox 9-0. “It was a nice showing from the offense, take a little stress off the pitchers because they’ve been picking us up and we haven’t really been doing anything for them,” said…

As the KMAN Severe Weather Center was broadcasting warnings over the air Saturday evening, the Outdoor Warning Sirens sounded at 9:55 p.m. in Riley County. While there was no threat of tornado, many residents interpreted the sirens as such.

It wasn’t so much a punch to the gut as it was a series of body blows that did in Kansas State Saturday afternoon as the Wildcats lost to Tulane 17-10. Michael Pratt’s legs put Tulane in position for the go-ahead score inside of six minutes remaining and his arm delivered the score that quieted Bill Snyder Family Stadium with 4:27 to play. The Green Wave scored on a five play drive when Pratt found Tyrick James at the goal line. K-State had turned the ball over on downs at the 48, one of five times they failed to convert…
Although construction has already begun on the Tracz Family Band Hall at K-State, the community celebrated the future home of the band on Friday. Instead of the typical shovels for the ground-breaking, the demolition of a wall was started. Band Director Dr. Frank Tracz says students and directors since the inception of K-State’s Band have all contributed to this important milestone. However, he is still honored to have the new hall named after his family since they have accepted his absence at many family functions for three decades. Tracz says band members have other responsibilities such as attending classes, so…
K-State’s Johnson Cancer Research Center capped off a week of cancer research week events Saturday with the Ride for a Cure fundraiser ending at the Manhattan Arts Center.
