Halftime: #2 Washburn trails Fort Hays State 34-33

Second game in a row WU has trailed at half at home. Surprising, to say the least. Dillon Claussen leads all scorers with 13 points. Bods need another comeback.

Halftime of the men's game, and #2 Washburn is down 41-39 to Nebraska-Kearney.

A shocking half, filled with some insane shot making by Kearney. Long way to go, though, and a big second half is on deck. Listen here: connmediaplayer.com/country1069

Halftime of our women's game, and it's Nebraska-Kearney leading Washburn 33-26. Ugly shooting half for the Ichabods, who shoot 33.3% overall and 0-8 from beyond the arc.

The caveat is always that I’m not against college players making money. They absolutely should get paid for myriad reasons.

But we’re going to fund all of this with sportswashing tournaments in Riyadh? This is bad and only getting worse. And we’re just supposed to accept it? It’s truly awful.

There had been some faint whispers up this way about his health situation after he nearly passed out during the KU game last year. Hopefully he's doing OK overall.
