(April 15) – Bigger shares of the purse were at stake after Friday’s Ice Breaker Challenge program was lost to rain, so Jesse Sobbing and Adam Armstrong both took homer bigger checks on Saturday.Sobbing scored the $3,000 IMCA Modified victory, earning the lion’s share of the biggest purse paid in that division at Eagle Raceway, while Armstrong collected the $750 Karl Chevrolet Northern SportMod checkers.Tyler Drueke took home $1,000 for his IMCA RaceSaver Sprint Car victory and Dan Nelson notched the $500 IMCA Sunoco Stock Car win. More than 140 teams made the tow to Eagle for the season lidlifter.Sobbing, who started on the front row, put his ride out front on the opening, followed by Chevy Hadan, Clint Homan and Shane Hiatt.Hiatt passed Homan for third on lap four and Dylan Smith got past Homan two laps later. The final position change in the top four came on lap 26 when Smith passed Hiatt for third. Sobbing raced his way onto the Fast Shafts All-Star Invitational ballot, finishing in front of Hadan, Smith and Hiatt.In an event doubling as the Sprint Series of Nebraska opener, Drueke took advantage of his front row outside starting position and led the distance.Toby Chapman and Jason Martin passed Adam Gullion to move to second and third following a lap five restart. Despite a furious battle among the top four. their spots remained unchanged to the checkers.“We led the whole thing, but it wasn’t really easy,” Drueke said. “We definitely had to earn this one, it wasn’t just given to us.”Once an official lap was in the books, Armstrong’s led the Northern SportMod field with Lance Borgman, Arie Schouten and Derek Hall in pursuit. Hall and Colby Langenberg both passed Schouten on lap two with Langenberg getting past Hall on lap 12.Borgman suffered mechanical difficulties on lap 22 and headed to the infield, making the eventual final running order Armstrong, Trent Roth, Shawn Harker and LangenbergNelson was in and out of second in the Stock Car feature before gaining the spot back on lap six. He took the lead on the 16th circuit and won ahead of Shane Stutzman, Doug Adamy and Eric Rempel.Feature ResultsModifieds – 1. Jesse Sobbing; 2. Chevy Hadan; 3. Dylan Smith; 4. Shane Hiatt; 5.

Rising Sun, IN—Late Friday morning the Ohio County Sheriff’s Office was called to an auto collision with injuries on Cass Union Road. Upon arrival deputies observed two vehicles were involved in the collision.It was determined that a 2008 Ford Focus was driven by Mary Green, 55, of Carrollton, Kentucky was traveling southbound on Cass Union Road. While driving through the curve her vehicle began to slide due to wet road conditions. Her vehicle then collided head-on with a 1999 Toyota Four Runner driven by Jeffrey Hogan 43, of Vevay, Indiana.Green and her passenger were entrapped in the vehicle and had to be extricated by firefighters. Both Green and Schenbelt were flown by medical helicopter to University of Cincinnati Hospital. A child that was in the car with Green was transported to High Point Health with minor injuries. According to deputies, Hogan was released from the scene with no reported injuries.
The pair come up against each other every day on the training pitch at the Academy of Light but will go head-to-head on Saturday with O’Shea wearing the green of the Republic of Ireland and Fletcher in the blue of Scotland, with a trip to France next summer the only focus. Both men know each other’s game inside out but the 34-year-old defender insists they will effectively be strangers for 90 minutes at the Aviva Stadium. O’Shea said: “Obviously there won’t be too much laughing and joking just before the game, but afterwards, it will be the same. You shake hands and you get on with things whatever the result was. “But look, you know the player, obviously you get on very well with the player, but ultimately, you want to beat him, that’s it.” Fletcher heads into the game in confident mood having plundered his first senior international hat-trick against Group D minnows Gibraltar in March. However, while the Scots pose a serious threat in attack, O’Shea insists it would be dangerous to underestimate them as a team. He said: “Look, you don’t just look at the attacking players, obviously, you look at the whole package and it will be a good test for us, without a doubt. “They have some good, not just attacking players, they have good players all over the pitch and that’s why we know it will be a good test, but one we are looking forward to.” Scotland got the better of the first meeting between the sides in the group when Shaun Maloney’s lone strike secured victory in Glasgow in November, and they head into the weekend just a point adrift of leaders Poland, level with World Cup winners Germany and two points better off than Ireland. Defeat could represent irreparable damage to the Irish cause, but O’Shea is looking no further ahead than the final whistle on Saturday. John O’Shea will not allow friendship to get in the way of precious Euro 2016 qualifying points as he prepares to lock horns with Sunderland team-mate Steven Fletcher. He said: “You could easily say that, but there are still games to go in the campaign after this. But we want to win the game tomorrow, and then that will take care of the rest of the campaign, hopefully. “But we don’t look too far ahead. It’s a massive game against Scotland, one we are well prepared for and one we are looking forward to.” There has been a quiet confidence surrounding the Scottish camp this week, with Gordon Strachan’s men knowing a draw in Dublin would not be the worst result, and the implications of defeat for the Republic. However, O’Shea and his team-mates are refusing to be distracted by the noise from across the Irish Sea. He said: “Mind games? Oh my God. Look, we need to win the game if we want to qualify for France. “No matter who we were playing tomorrow, we need to win the game, so they can say what they want.” Press Association
The countdown is on to the start of the Indy 500, which was delayed from its traditional date in May because of the coronavirus pandemic and will be run without fans for the first time in its 104 editions.New track owner Roger Penske, whose team has four cars in the field, and IndyCar executives have tried to create an entertaining prerace show for broadcaster NBC. But the build up to “The Greatest Spectacle in Racing” is still somewhat eerie without the 250,000-plus fans who typically show up inside the Brickyard.Driver introductions took place with the voice of the public address announcer echoing off the empty stands. There also will be no military parade or balloon release, two staples of race day. But there will be Jim Cornelison singing “Back Home Again in Indiana” and the Air Force’s famed Thunderbirds performing a flyover.___More AP auto racing: https://apnews.com/apf-AutoRacing and https://twitter.com/AP_Sports James Davison has brought out the first caution flag of the Indianapolis 500 when he made contact with the wall in the opening laps and his right front tire turned into a ball of fire.Davison was able to exit the car without any problem.

Sage Karam lost a lot of time when he locked up his tires and missed his stall on pit road. Rookie driver Rinus VeeKay also lost several seconds when he stalled leaving his pit, then he was penalized for hitting a team member.The most intriguing part of the race so far has been pit strategy. Several of the Team Penske drivers are on a completely different strategy from the leaders, including the defending winner Simon Pagenaud.

Share William Hill accelerates transformation agenda to overcome COVID realities August 5, 2020 StumbleUpon Share Gamesys tops list for GambleAware Q1 donations July 10, 2020 SBC Magazine Issue 10: Kaizen Gaming rebrand and focus for William Hill CEO August 25, 2020 Related Articles Submit FTSE bookmaker William Hill has confirmed the sale of its on-course betting points/stalls network worth £2 million, ending its trackside presence within UK racing.First established in 1934, William Hill has chosen to dispose its entire 82 racecourse pitch network to independent racing bookmaker Sid Hooper.The diminishing returns of its on-course network sees William Hill prioritise its horseracing services through its racecourse betting shops and digital verticals. Furthermore, the FTSE bookmaker will retain a brand presence within UK racing, acting as lead sponsor of ITV Racing.Under the leadership of CEO Philip Bowcock and CFO Ruth Prior, William Hill continues to execute its corporate transformation programme, prioritising group operational cost savings and US market growth opportunities.The transformation programme has seen William Hill reduce all in-stadia wagering properties with the bookmaker offloading its Newcastle and Sunderland Greyhound tracks to Arena Racing in 2017.William Hill becomes the latest UK retail bookmaker to terminate its on-course betting network, as Betfred and Ladbrokes ended their trackside presence in 2016.Confirming the sale to the Racing Post, William Hill trading director Terry Pattinson said: “With a William Hill betting shop now at 41 racecourses, we have reviewed whether our rails operation continues to make commercial sense.“Our focus now is to provide on-course customers with a full retail experience on the racecourse, so it makes sense to move away from our rails operation, hence, we have agreed a sale with Racecourse Pitches Ltd. We wish them the best of luck with their new expanded operations.”
DOMINATE YOUR DRAFT: Ultimate 2019 cheat sheet2019 Fantasy Baseball C SleepersWillson Contreras, Cubs. A breakout sophomore season was followed by a disappointing 2018 for Contreras, who hit only 10 home runs — including only three in the second half — and slashed .249/.339/.390. If there is a reason for hope with Contreras, it’s that last season — when he was viewed by many as a top option at the position— seems more like an anomaly than anything. It’s a small sample size, but his 2018 numbers in almost all of the core categories were worse than his first two seasons. Contreras may also benefit from new hitting coach Anthony Iapoce, who has experience working with the catcher dating back to his minor league career. The Cubs stacked lineup will provide plenty of RBI opportunities and, in turn, chances for runs, which should benefit those who draft Contreras at a reduced price. Unlike fellow 26-year-old backstop Gary Sanchez, who is also coming off a disappointing ’18, Contreras didn’t suffer a major injury or have shouldery surgery, which might actually make him a little “safer” and a better value in drafts.Willians Astudillo, Twins. Astudillo, a cult hero in some baseball circles, is one of the more unique fantasy options. He hardly ever strikes out or walks, posting a 17/12 K/BB ratio in 307 plate appearances across Triple-A and the majors in 2018. Astudillo usually picks his pitch early in the at-bat, which could go both ways, although it served him well in his first MLB stint. He slashed .355/.371/.516 in 97 at-bats with Minnesota, although most of those hits were singles. Astudillo’s playing time is his biggest question, as the Twins have Jason Castro behind the plate, but he could also gain eligibility at second and/or third base, where he played six and two games, respectively, last season. If he finds everyday playing time, he’ll offer a little pop, a little SB ability, and serve as one of the few catchers who will hit for a high average.2019 Fantasy Baseball Rankings:Catcher | First | Second | Third | Short | Outfield | Starter | Reliever | Top 300Danny Jansen, Blue Jays. Jansen comes with risks, as rookie catchers rarely put up huge stats, but the talented 23-year-old impressed in 109 Triple-A games (.285/.396/.488), particularly in terms in K/BB ratio (56/55). He held his own during his 31-game stint in Toronto last year (.247/.347/.432), and given the relative weakness of the catcher position, he could be a top-12 backstop without a true breakout season. — Matt Lutovsky Jorge Alfaro, Marlins. Alfaro has lost a bit of his top-prospect shine. Still, the 25-year-old backstop popped 10 homers in 108 games last year for the Phillies, and he should see ample playing time with the Marlins. As with Jansen, even a merely “decent” season for Alfaro could make him a legit starting catcher in 12-team leagues. — Matt Lutovsky 2019 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers:First | Second | Third | Short | Outfield | Starter | Each teamRobinson Chirinos, Astros. Chirinos is coming off career highs in home runs (18), RBIs (65), and walks (45) in 2018 with the Rangers, and he should will benefit from being in a loaded lineup with Houston. Chirinos should start the season as the Astros’ backstop, although it’s unlikely they are going to have a long leash with him, especially with prospect Garrett Stubbs knocking down the door in Triple-A. Draft Chirinos if you’re in a deeper league and looking for some pop from your backstop. He is quietly eighth in home runs (35) among catchers in the past two seasons.Francisco Mejia, Padres. The second rookie to appear on this list, Mejia’s immediate playing team may not be as clear as Jansen’s. Austin Hedges is also expected to get a sizeable amount of playing time behind the plate, at least to begin the season. Still, Mejia’s potential makes him worth the short-term risk. He hit .293 with an .809 OPS and 46 extra-base hits over 468 plate appearances in Triple-A last season. His K/BB was concerning (83/25), but he was a 22 year old who was mostly playing with players who were older and more experienced. In a cup of coffee with the Padres, Mejia struggled in most offensive categories, although he flashed his power potential with three home runs in 54 at-bats. Mejia owners should have patience, but the payoff could pay off, especially with the opportunity he should get to hit behind Manny Machado and Eric Hosmer in the lineup. 2019 Fantasy Baseball Rankings Tiers, Draft StrategyCatcher | First | Second | Third | Short | Outfield | Starter | CloserJohn Hicks, Tigers. Slated to be Detroit’s opening day DH, Hicks’ immediate playing team is more guaranteed that most other sleepers on the list. His major league numbers haven’t been too enticing so far (.262, 15 HRs, 54 RBIs combined over past two seasons), but his ability to play every day, regardless of whether it’s at catcher, designated hitter, or first base, will give him value, especially in weekly leagues. He could easily fall out of the lineup and everyday role, but with Miguel Cabrera a major injury risk and Grayson Greiner completely unproven behind the plate, Hicks could stick somewhere. The value of playing every day will be most evident in weekly leagues. (Update: With the Tigers signing Josh Harrison, Hicks will likely need an injury to become an everyday DH.)Tyler Flowers, Braves. Flowers has been a sneaky-good platoon bat since arriving in Atlanta in 2016, and his renowned pitch-framing skills combined with the departure of Kurt Suzuki could lead to an uptick in playing time for the veteran catcher. He’ll now be spelled by Brian McCann, an injury-prone backstop who managed to play just 63 games last season. Flowers hit .270 in ’16 and .281 in ’17; a BABIP well below his career norm last season should bounce back in ’19 and lead to another solid batting average, particularly against lefthanded pitchers. He should also be bankable for double-digit home runs, something he’s done in three of the past six seasons despite playing a part-time role. Oh, and there’s this: Flowers has maintained a significantly higher average exit velocity and launch angle than league average for four straight seasons. He’s not flashy, but if used properly, there might not be a better late-round option at catcher. –Dan Bernstein It’s not much of a secret that catcher doesn’t feature the deepest or most talented set of rankings. The lack of obvious starter options means there are plenty of potential sleepers who can provide substantial value in the later rounds of fantasy baseball drafts. Whether it’s the ability to hit for power amongst a position group that doesn’t have a lot of it or the tendency to get on base at an above-average mark — or simply being in the lineup most days — these undervalued players can help your team, even if they may not be household names.Bounce-back candidates, potential-filled rookies, and those who changed scenery over the offseason make up our list of this year’s top catcher sleepers.

They were visible from Rock Rd on the Ninnescah River sand bar near the iron bridge. I wonder if these are related incidences. Probably taken for scrap metal, but perhaps co-op or some other tire shop may have had someone in trying to sell or get new tires mounted on them. Apparently they needed them worse than I did.

FILE PHOTO: Jurgen KloppLiverpool, United Kingdom | AFP | Jurgen Klopp says Liverpool must learn to deal with their standing as European champions as they kick off their campaign against Premier League winners Manchester City in Sunday’s Community Shield at Wembley.Klopp admits his side have been under intense scrutiny since their Champions League final success against Tottenham in June, but the Reds boss is confident his stars will not allow any distractions to stop them from being focused on the coming season.“If you win something, everybody feels the need to tell you –- first of all congratulations, then where they watched it, how they watched it, how they felt, how their family felt, how their friends felt, how the dog felt,” Klopp said.“It’s all nice, but it keeps you in that moment. I want to be completely focused on a new season.“It’s very important and we will learn it. But no one gives you a book ‘How To Deal With a Champions League win’. You have to do it by yourself and we will do that.”Klopp added there was no extra pressure on them following Liverpool’s sixth European title and a subsequent absence of high-profile signings in the close-season.With only Daniel Sturridge and Alberto Moreno missing from the squad that won the Champions League and finished runners-by just a point up to City, Klopp is adamant extending contracts of key men Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane, Roberto Firmino, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Andrew Robertson was as vital as landing any new recruits.“These are the transfers we did, keeping the boys together, staying on our toes, staying aggressive, greedy,” he said. After a difficult pre-season where several of his players were absent for international tournaments, Klopp is looking forward to working with his full squad before next Friday’s Premier League opener against Norwich.But while desire and expectation are high at Anfield, Klopp insists City are clear favourites to claim a third successive league title.“Because they’ve won the league twice in a row… We have to prove again that we can be on that level — 97 points was not a coincidence,” he said.“But the champions didn’t lose a player, apart from (Vincent) Kompany. They are pretty consistent, a good age group, experienced, they are clear favourites. How could we be favourites?“If somebody said we were favourites for the Champions League, I probably couldn’t deny it. We have been in the final twice in a row and obviously know the way to the final.“Does that mean we’ll be in it again? Probably not… It’s not PlayStation where you can go to the next skill or whatever.”Share on: WhatsApp
