Sunrise basketball player commits to Miami

JOANNA CHADWICK — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 13:54 CDT

Raphael Akpejiori hasn't played a basketball game for Sunrise Christian Academy, even though he's in his second year attending the school in Bel Aire.

But Akpejiori has made an oral commitment to play for Miami (Fla.). He can sign with the Hurricanes next month, when he starts the Sunrise season.

"He's a good defender, rebounder," Sunrise coach Kyle Lindsted said of Akpejiori, who is 6-foot-9, 230 pounds and a native of Nigeria. "He jumps, he runs, he has a quick first step. He's good from 15 feet on in."

Drew on point for Tar Heels

AARON BEARD — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 00:05 CDT

CHAPEL HILL, N.C. —Larry Drew II never had to show off much of a jumpshot or take ownership of North Carolina's high-powered offense as a freshman playing behind future pro Ty Lawson.

Those pressure-free days are over.

Now Lawson is in the NBA and the unproven Drew looks likely to inherit the starting point guard job for the defending national champion Tar Heels. It's one of the biggest question marks facing North Carolina as it begins preseason practice with a loaded frontcourt and a lot of inexperience along the perimeter.

UConn chasing another national title

PAT EATON-ROBB — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 00:05 CDT

STORRS, Conn. —Connecticut coach Geno Auriemma is sure his Huskies can contend for a seventh national championship — if he can find the right point guard.

UConn, which held its annual media day on Thursday, returns 10 players from the team that went 39-0 and won its sixth title in April. The roster includes national player of the year Maya Moore and All-American center Tina Charles.

But Renee Montgomery, the point guard and unquestioned floor leader of that championship team, is with the WNBA's Minnesota Lynx. Auriemma acknowledges that her departure left a leadership void which must be filled if the Huskies are to repeat.

Ownership resolved on Morris' car

brady mccollough — Thu, 08 Oct 2009 00:04 CDT

A 1997 Chevy Tahoe driven by KU sophomore forward Markieff Morris during a Sept. 13 car accident was sold to teammate Tyshawn Taylor by Scot Pollard in August, Pollard said Wednesday.

Questions about the Tahoe's owner arose because the police report from the accident, in which Morris was cited for an improper lane change, stated the car was registered to Pollard, a former Jayhawks and NBA player who lives in Lawrence. Pollard said Taylor had not yet transferred the car to his name at the time of the accident.

Taylor had lent the car to Morris, according to KU associate athletics director for external relations Jim Marchiony. At 1:14 a.m. Sept. 13, police were called to 17th and Tennessee streets because Morris had hit a car while trying to change lanes to make a left turn. The car Morris hit, driven by a 23-year-old woman, sustained at least $1,000 in damages, according to the traffic report.

Hoop legends make way into Hall of Fame

jeffrey LUTZ — Mon, 05 Oct 2009 00:06 CDT

The Kansas Sports Hall of Fame induction ceremony was a haven Sunday night for successful college basketball coaches with Kansas ties.

Among the 14 inductees were Eddie Sutton, a Bucklin native who won 804 games with five schools, and Ted Owens, who led Kansas to eight NCAA tournaments between 1964-83.

Also in attendance was former Kansas State coach and Silver Lake native Lon Kruger. He was there in support of his former player, Steve Henson, now an assistant under Kruger at UNLV. Kruger was inducted into the KSHOF in 1999.
