Kansas State basketball guard Ques Glover out again after reinjuring his knee

MANHATTAN — Just when Kansas State basketball coach Jerome Tang was about to add some needed depth for the Big 12 schedule, the Wildcats suffered another blow.

Veteran guard Ques Glover, out since hurting his knee in the Wildcats’ exhibition game against Emporia State back in November, reaggravated the injury in practice this week, possibly ending his season.

“He came back, we came back, and we had a full team out there at practice and it looked pretty good,” Tang said of Glover following the Wildcats’ 62-55 victory over Chicago State on Tuesday night at Bramlage Coliseum. “We worked on some things that we can do with two veteran guards out there that you really can’t do when you don’t have the guard depth.

“It looked pretty good for three, three-and-a-half days and then he had, I don’t know if it was a misstep, a bump or whatever, but it was just one of those freak things. Same knee, same issue.”

Glover, a 6-foot graduate transfer from Samford who also played two years at Florida, was on crutches for Tuesday’s game. At Samford, he averaged 19.2 points as a junior and 14.7 last year as a senior.

Tang did not sound optimistic about Glover’s prognosis going forward.

“I don’t know all the details yet. We have this rule on our staff, no bad news on game day, so they didn’t tell me the whole thing,” Tang said. “And I knew it was bad news because nobody would tell me what the MRI said.

“Just walking up here (to the postgame news conference), I was told that it’s a possible surgery. They didn’t give me the whole detail of everything yet.”

Glover shot 37.8% from 3-point range last year at Samford. The Wildcats made just 3 of 14 from outside the arc against Chicago State.

The coaches had deliberately taken their time in putting Glover back on the court in order to make sure his knee had fully healed.

“I hurt for him, because he put in so much work in rehab,” Tang said. “I do feel like I’m glad we took as long as we did to bring him back. He could have been back two weeks ago, but had we rushed him, and this happened, then we would have been sitting around going, ‘Oh man, we rushed him back.’

“But we gave him every opportunity for that thing to fully heal, and for some reason it didn’t, or something else happened, and so now it’s on to the next thing. What’s the next thing he has to do? What’s the next thing we have to do?”

The Wildcats now open conference play at 5 p.m. Saturday at home against Central Florida without two key players that started practices on the roster. In addition to Glover, they lost senior forward Nae’Qwan Tomlin in preseason when he was dismissed from the team following his arrest on a disorderly conduct charge in October.

“I’m proud of our nonconference, to go 10-3 and not have two guys that you thought were going to be contributors for you, and dudes just figuring out a way,” Tang said.

Kansas parents charged after child fatally shoots 5-year-old, 8-year-old

WICHITA, Kan. (KSNW) — Two Kansas parents were charged Thursday in connection with the shooting deaths of their two children.

The Ellsworth County Attorney’s Office charged Aaron French and Makayla French of Brookville with four counts each of aggravated child endangerment.

On March 28, law enforcement responded to a home near Kansas Highway 141 and Avenue N near Kanopolis Lake.

A 5-year-old girl and an 8-year-old boy had been shot, according to the Kansas Bureau of Investigation. The 5-year-old was pronounced dead at the scene. The 8-year-old was taken to a Wichita hospital, where he died almost a week later.

The KBI said a young child in the home picked up a loaded, unsecured shotgun and shot the siblings.

Aaron French, 37, and Makayla French, 28, have been ordered to appear in court on July 28.

Kansas City to reduce bus transit frequency, extended hours after World Cup matches end

Kansas City to reduce bus transit frequency, extended hours after World Cup matches end

Saturday marks the final FIFA World Cup 26 match in Kansas City with Argentina set to meet Switzerland on the pitch at Kansas City Stadium.

Kansas City to reduce bus transit frequency, extended hours after World Cup

Public transportation received a big boost during the World Cup.

Johnson County launched JOCO United, and according to leaders, the airport drop and ride service that was implemented for the tournament will stick around.

“It has been very smooth every time,” Johnson County resident Mariah Wickham said. “I’ve been up and down so many times.”

Kansas City, Missouri, also bumped up its transit options, but not all of the those will be sticking around once the final whistle blows.

Tens of thousands of people have been using the airport link, streetcar and the buses to get around Kansas City. The city poured millions of dollars into building up its public transit infrastructure. The KCATA added more frequency to bus transit lines and the streetcar, pushing more fans to use public transportation during the tournament.

“With the World Cup here, I was able to exercise using the streetcar more frequently and that was really fun,” Trish Luancing said. “It wold be nice to not have to drive everywhere and not have to worry about parking.”

But thousands have been relying on public transit for years, regardless of what event was in town.

“It’s been busier since the World Cup,” Jeffrice Jackson, a bus rider, said. “It’s been smooth sailing.”

The KCATA added streetcar ‘bus bridge’ links, extended bus service hours and increased frequency on East-West routes to link riders to the streetcar. It’s benefited both travelers and commuters.

“[Service] has been more consistent with the World Cup than it was previously,” Jerry Breault, a rider said. “We were missing buses or routes because there weren’t enough drivers to drive that route.”

But the add-on’s stop on Sunday, July 12. If the transit authority can’t find more money, more than a dozen routes will be cut, potentially impacting more than 8,000 riders.

“It’s a little frustrating,” Breault said. “A lot of us rely on it just to get back and forth to work, to take care of our daily needs. It looks like we may be having to find alternatives and we’re not very happy about that.”

The KCATA will potentially suspend these weekday and weekend routes by September:

Weekday Route Eliminations:

9 – 9th Street, 365 average weekday ridership
21 – Cleveland Antioch, 512 average weekday ridership
23 – 23rd Street, 266 average weekday ridership
25 – Troost Local, 1,460 average weekday ridership
27 – 27th Street, 422 average weekday ridership
57 – Wornall, 411 average weekday ridership
71 – Prospect Local, 464 average weekday ridership

Weekend Route Eliminations:

9 – 9th Street, 349 average weekend ridership
21 – Cleveland Antioch, 312 average weekend ridership
23 – 23rd Street, 312 average weekend ridership
25 – Troost Local, 1,431 average weekend ridership
27 – 27th Street, 455 average weekend ridership
57 – Wornall, 595 average weekend ridership
71 – Prospect Local, 982 average weekend ridership

Bus fares came back earlier this summer to offset some of the operation costs, but many have reported issues with the free fare cards and eligibility.

“There’s always funding challenges with the KCATA,” Kansas City, Missouri, Mayor Quinton Lucas said. “How are the fare re-institutions working right now?”

Mayor Lucas told KSHB 41 News Reporter Isabella Ledonne the transit improvements implemented for the World Cup “should continue,” and there are plans to talk with the KCATA commissioners to “make it work”.

“KCATA cannot just be Kansas City supported alone forever,” Mayor Lucas said. “Our approach and our preference is that the region got to see how much they would like [expanded service] during the World Cup. It was always intentional that if they liked it, maybe they would invest and maybe they would want this thing to go further.”

That’s good news to the thousands of daily riders.
