Disabled Kansas man who mows lawns gets new garage built by neighbors

BUCYRUS, Kan. — If you drive through rural Bucyrus, Kansas on almost any day, there’s a chance you will pass Kenny Kenley on his lawn mower.

“I love working. I never stop,” Kenley said. “It relaxes me.”

Kenley moved 30 years ago from Michigan to Bucyrus.

Kenny Kenley

He loves living in rural Kansas.

In 2009, Kenley’s health declined, taking away mobility in his legs.

He was diagnosed with cancer, spending two years on life support, and also lived through seven heart attacks.

“It’s a little bit rough,” he said.

Nearly all of Kenley’s life is spent in a motorized wheelchair.

Kenny Kenley — A disabled Bucyrus, Kansas landscaper received a well deserved equipment shop from his neighbors at Guetterman Famile Farms.

Since his health declined, he’s been committed to defying the odds.

“They didn’t think I was going to make it,” he said. “They kept telling my wife I was going to die. My wife told them, ‘You leave that man alone, because he’s going to make it,”‘ Kenley said. “When I got out of the hospital, I told my wife, ‘I gotta start mowing. I gotta do something.”‘

With limited use of his hands and legs, Kenley spent the next year teaching himself how to get from his wheelchair into his riding lawnmower.

“Nothing ever gets me down,” he said.

That attitude drew the attention of the farmers across the road at Guetterman Family Farms.

“Kenny is the unofficial mayor of Bucyrus,” Mike Guetterman told KSHB 41. “He kind of looks out for everybody here in town. Coincidentally, we kind of look out for him as well. He’s been a blessing to us.”

The Guetterman Family offered Kenny a job mowing grass around their property.

Most days, Kenny’s up at 5:30 a.m., priming his lawnmower for sometimes 10 acres of grass to cut.

“He goes the extra mile,” Guetterman said. “You think it would just be enough to come and ride his mower. But as soon as he’s done mowing, he gets his weed eater and he’s riding his weed eater, in his chair, and weed eating all the property. How many people are there world like that?”

As a gift of appreciation, Guetterman Family Farms poured a slab of concrete and framed a shop behind Kenley’s home to store his equipment.

“You couldn’t ask for better people,” Kenley said with an ear-to-ear smile. “I love them like family.”

It’s his perseverance through all the bad times that Guetterman says he admires.

“He’ll call us and say, ‘I’m in the hospital. I had a heart attack.’” “You think Kenny is about done, but three days later he’s mowing again,” Guetterman said. “You think you have problems in your life, as far as aches and pains here and there… Kenny don’t have to do nothing. But he wants to.”

Guetterman says their family’s act of kindness is more about community and the positive attitude Kenley embodies.

“I told myself there is nothing I can do about it, so I might as well go ahead and get it done,” Kenley said. “This grass ain’t getting brown, it’s getting green! As long as it’s green, I’m mowing.”

That’s the Kenny Kenley inspiration.

Nebraska volleyball sweeps Kansas in NCAA Sweet 16: Score, highlights

The NCAA volleyball tournament’s No. 1 overall seed, Nebraska, continued its undefeated season on Friday.

The Huskers improved to 33-0 after sweeping No. 4 Kansas in the 2025 NCAA regional semifinal in Lincoln, Nebraska. The Huskers advance to the regional final to face No. 3 Texas A&M on Sunday (3 p.m. ET, ABC).

Nebraska has not dropped a set in the postseason. In fact, the Huskers have dropped seven sets all season, the last coming nearly a month ago on Nov. 14 against UCLA.

“We work really hard,” said Andi Jackson, who finished with nine kills on .600 hitting, five blocks and two digs. “It’s all coming to fruition right now with just how many attempts we’re getting and how many kills we’re getting.”

USA TODAY Sports provided live updates and highlights from the match below:

Live score updates: Nebraska 3, Kansas 0

Set 3 final: Nebraska 25, Kansas 12

Nebraska swept Kansas after winning the third set, 25-12. The Huskers have now won 29 straight NCAA tournament matches at home.

Nebraska is in the driver’s seat once again and was the first team to reach 15 points in the third set, leading 15-8. The Huskers are hitting .762, while Kansas is hitting .353 in the set so far.

Set 2 final: Nebraska 25, Kansas 11

No. 1 Nebraska went on a 5-0 run to claim the second set, 25-11. The Huskers have been dominant on both sides of the ball, recording 22 kills and 17 total blocks through the first two sets, all while holding Kansas to a negative hitting percentage (-.039).

“Our blocking. That’s probably going to be a season high for us,” Huskers coach Dani Busboom Kelly said when asked what she’s liking from her team. “I just feel like we came out on a mission. Our goal was to block a lot of balls tonight.”

Nebraska’s Rebekah Allick has been the hot hand, with nine kills on nine attempts, hitting a perfect 1.000. Andi Jackson added five kills on .500 hitting, in addition to five blocks.

Set 2: Nebraska 13, Kansas 7

Set 1 final: Nebraska 25, Kansas 12

Nebraska looked every bit like the No. 1 overall seed in a dominant first set against No. 4 Kansas. The Huskers collectively hit .357 and registered six blocks against the Jayhawks, who were held to a negative hitting percentage (-.024) in the first set. Rebekah Allick led the Huskers with six kills on six attempts, while Andi Jackson added four blocks and three kills.

Nebraska takes 12-3 lead vs. Kansas

Busboom succeeded longtime coach and mentor John Cook in January. The Nebraska alum won national titles with the program as a player in 2006 and as an assistant coach in 2015. Nebraska (32-0) has kicked off the Busboom Kelly era with its first undefeated season since 2000. Although Busboom Kelly said, “whoever is (coaching Nebraska) would be doing well,” her players argue otherwise.

“When (Busboom Kelly) came in here, that Nebraska standard wasn’t lost at all. She knew what she wanted and she really pushes us to reach that level,” Nebraska middle blocker Andi Jackson told USA TODAY Sports.

Check out Harper Murray’s pregame routine

Nebraska outside hitter Harper Murray carefully tapes her hands before every match.

She inscribes ’27’ on the tape binding her left ring finger in honor of her late father Vada Murray, who died when she was 5 years old. He wore No. 27 while playing football at Michigan. Murray then writes former coach John Cook’s initials on her left pointer finger, “a father figure” that helped her grow as a player. She also adds Huskers head coach Dani Busboom Kelly’s initials on her middle finger as a reminder to lay it all on the line.

The initials on her right hand changes every year. She told USA TODAY Sports, “Every year for the past three years, I have written the location of the Final Four. On my pointer finger and my middle finger, I have the letters ‘KC,’ which is Kansas City, which is where the NCAA Tournament is held this year.” Full story here.

Nebraska setter Campbell Flynn suffers season-ending injury

Freshman setter Campbell Flynn suffered a broken pinky finger, according to former head coach John Cook’s pregame radio show. Flynn will be out the remainder of the season with the injury. The freshman averaged 4.50 assists per set.

Nebraska has three Player of the Year semifinalists

When the AVCA Player of the Year semifinalists were announced in November, Nebraska had three of the 14 players on the list — Andi Jackson, Harper Murray and junior setter Bergen Reilly. It’s another example of the Huskers’ depth.

“We have arguably the best in each position for the country,” Andi Jackson told USA TODAY Sports. “We have the best setter in the country, we have the best outside in the country. And I think it just shows how strong our team is, especially at that front row that we have. When Harper (Murray), Bergen (Reilly) and I are up, we always give each other a smile because we know what we have to offer.”

The trio led Nebraska to the nation’s top hitting percentage (.353) and fourth-highest kill per set mark (14.72).

2026 ZiPS Projections: Kansas City Royals

2026 ZiPS Projections: Kansas City Royals

For the 22nd consecutive season, the ZiPS projection system is unleashing a full set of prognostications. For more information on the ZiPS projections, please consult this year’s introduction, as well as MLB’s glossary entry. The team order is selected by lot, and the next team up is the Kansas City Royals.

Batters

For the Royals, 2025 was about the season that was expected. Bobby Witt Jr. was amazing and the starting rotation was very good, but the team was held back as a result of getting pretty much no production out of the second base, outfield, and designated hitter positions. ZiPS projected the Royals for 83 wins, and they won 82. Normally, that would make a team a real contender in the AL Central, but the Tigers played like an elite team in the first half and the Guardians did the same in the second half, leaving the division always too far out of reach for the Royals.

While Kansas City had some serious problems, especially in those trouble spots mentioned above, it was generally encouraging how the team dealt with it. I stand by every word I said about the outfield back in February. The idea to just roll with Hunter Renfroe and MJ Melendez after their terrible 2024 seasons was a massive missed opportunity. But the good thing is that the Royals were quick to jettison both and get looks at other players who showed a lot of promise (Jac Caglianone) or at least had some upside (Drew Waters). Now, these moves didn’t actually pan out in the short term, but it’s always better to try something that might work over something that almost definitely won’t.

ZiPS doesn’t really like the outfield this time around either, but it does think that there are enough defense and platoon advantages in the various players slated to man the grass that the Royals could eke out respectable production from the group, certainly quite a lot more than they got last year. And this is important, because every win for a team with a projected total in the low-to-mid-80s, especially a team in a Central division, has tremendous value. Even better would be a much bigger acquisition to boost at least one of the positions, but failing that, ZiPS doesn’t see either left or right field as unmitigated disasters this time around (though Steamer is less optimistic).

Witt Jr. is the straw that stirs the drink, of course, but beyond that, this was the season I think Maikel Garcia clearly established himself as an All-Star level third baseman. He finally turned that good plate discipline and hard-hit numbers into real production, and he’s Gold Glove-worthy at the hot corner. Expect both players on the left side of the infield to keep things up in 2026. Another positive: The Royals could see some improvement at second base. ZiPS thinks that Michael Massey is better than his 2025 performance indicates. My inclination might be to use Massey as a super-sub type, and just stick Jonathan India at second and leave him there; there’s no reason to pretend India’s a corner outfielder, as the team did at times this past season.

I was a big advocate for the Royals’ being aggressive with Caglianone’s promotion, and I still think it was the right thing to do. It remains to be seen if he can contribute defensively anywhere, but he ought to hit better than he did in his debut campaign; it’s hard to imagine he could do worse than his horrifying 46 wRC+. The problem is the Royals can’t afford to just stick Cags at DH every day. They need to leave that open for Salvador Perez to get spot starts when he’s not wearing a glove in some sort of timeshare with Carter Jensen behind the plate and Vinnie Pasquantino at first. You shouldn’t be alarmed by the top comp for Caglianone. Costen Shockley didn’t hit for the Angels initially, and after a dispute about whether or not they told him they weren’t going to demote him, they sent him to the minors; in response, after having just moved his family out to California, he peaced out from baseball at age 23.

We hope you’ll consider a Membership today, for yourself or as a gift! And we realize this has been an awfully long sales pitch, so we’ve also removed all the other ads in this article. We didn’t want to overdo it.

And you better not be upset about the Witt top comp. Dickie Thon was absolutely terrific until a Mike Torrez fastball shattered his face; he was never the same after that. Don’t worry, ZiPS isn’t forecasting Witt to suffer the same fate!

Pitchers

In the projection table, the rotation tops out at 2.2 WAR, from Cole Ragans. However, this understates the quality of this group of starters, as ZiPS is understandably squeamish about projecting big innings totals from Ragans and Kris Bubic. A full season for Ragans would put his WAR safely over three. The same is true for Bubic, though rotator cuff injuries always make me a bit worried.

The rest of the rotation, Seth Lugo, Noah Cameron, and Michael Wacha projects out as comfortably average-plus, and I don’t think it’s a stretch to put Kansas City’s starting staff at the back of the top 10 in baseball. Ryan Bergert and Stephen Kolek won’t scare anyone, but they’re perfectly reasonable emergency replacements, and both Bailey Falter and Daniel Lynch IV are at least plausible options if injuries plague the starting five.

The bullpen projects as a middle-of-the-pack unit at the moment. ZiPS remains a fan of Hunter Harvey, but injuries ruined his 2025 season, and he’s currently a free agent. Otherwise, ZiPS pegs the Royals as having a quintet of B+ relievers in Carlos Estévez, Lucas Erceg, John Schreiber, Angel Zerpa, and Alex Lange, but doesn’t think they have a true lights-out closer. Overall, this pen comes out aggressively mid, and a depth addition or two would be welcome.

Right now, ZiPS projects the Royals to finish with somewhere between 82-86 wins or so, depending on the assumptions. That makes them relevant in the AL Central and a second-tier wild card contender. There’s still time for them to do more to get over the hump.

Players are listed with their most recent teams wherever possible. This includes players who are unsigned or have retired, players who will miss 2026 due to injury, and players who were released in 2025. So yes, if you see Joe Schmoe, who quit baseball back in August to form a Ambient Math-Rock Trip-Hop Yacht Metal band that only performs in abandoned malls, he’s still listed here intentionally. ZiPS is assuming a league with an ERA of 4.16.

Hitters are ranked by zWAR, which is to say, WAR values as calculated by me, Dan Szymborski, whose surname is spelled with a z. WAR values might differ slightly from those that appear in the full release of ZiPS. Finally, I will advise anyone against — and might karate chop anyone guilty of — merely adding up WAR totals on a depth chart to produce projected team WAR. It is important to remember that ZiPS is agnostic about playing time, and has no information about, for example, how quickly a team will call up a prospect or what veteran has fallen into disfavor.

As always, incorrect projections are either caused by misinformation, a non-pragmatic reality, or by the skillful sabotage of our friend and former editor. You can, however, still get mad at me on Twitter or on Bluesky. This last is, however, not an actual requirement.

Elijah Ming’s son is only two — too young to hold many memories of his dad.

But he will remember him. Elijah lives on in Deuce — the little one who also carries his father’s name.

“He definitely carries a lot of traits that Elijah had,” said Elijah’s wife, Tiara Ming.

One of those traits now stands tall on a KCK baseball field. On Thursday, fallen Wyandotte County Deputy Elijah Ming was honored once again as Heathwood Park was renamed Elijah Ming Memorial Field.

“It’ll be here for generations and decades to come,” said KCK Mayor Tyrone Garner.

“That’s a sign to our young people in this community that these are the folks we should be looking up to,” said Wyandotte County Sheriff Daniel Soptic.
