‘Not a cookie-cutter kind of person’
GTECHS junior takes
a different path to
higher education
By AMANDA LIEN
alien@cdispatch.com
K
ody Rickert, 17, says his
trademark is his mis-
matched Crocs.
While shopping during spring
break last year with a friend, they
each bought a pair of the rubber
clogs, one in white and one in
green. After leaving the store, they
decided to take one of each color.
Rickert has been wearing his ever
since.
“I know people make fun of
them, but I like the aesthetic to
them,” he said. “They’re funky and
I like that about them. It’s kind of
my thing.”
A pair of mismatched shoes isn’t
the only thing that sets Rickert
apart. He is one of 50 students
that will begin their junior year
at Golden Triangle Early College
High School by taking a full load of
college courses at East Mississippi
Community College in the fall.
When he graduates, he will have
earned both a high school diplo-
ma from GTECHS and a two-year
degree from EMCC.
It’s a challenge Rickert is ner-
vous for, but still excited to face.
“I’m nervous because I know
the courses will be hard,” he said.
“This is the first year I’m doing
college full-time. They kind of ease
you into it, so I’ve been prepared.
But I’m excited because I know it’s
getting me ahead in my career.”

Virginia Beach shines light
on victims, not mass shooter
‘The goal is to kind of
interrupt the cycle of
new mass shooters
citing previous ones ...’
Adam Lankford, a criminologist
at the University of Alabama
By BEN FINLEY
The Associated Press
VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. — The
victims of America’s latest mass
shooting had been dead for less
than a day when police and city of-
ficials released a detailed presenta-
tion with their names, photos, job ti-
tles and the cities or towns in which
they lived.
In all, 12 people — 11 of them
city employees — were killed by
the shooter who opened fire inside
a municipal building.
Far less was revealed Saturday
about the man who authorities say
carried out the shootings. There
was no photo. And authorities
promised to utter his name only
once: “DeWayne Craddock,” a
40-year-old engineer who worked
in the city’s utilities department.
“We wanted to control that narra-
tive,” Steve Cover, Virginia Beach’s
deputy city manager of public safe-
ty, said of the news conference of-
ficials held the day after Friday’s
shooting. “We didn’t want it to leak
out piece by piece through family
and friends and so forth through
the media. We felt it was kind of our
obligation to get that message out.”
This sprawling city on Virginia’s
coast is employing an increasingly
common public information strate-
gy: Release more details about the
victims of mass shootings than of
the killers — at least initially — to
limit the criminals’ exposure and
prevent copycat shootings.
A similar tack was taken in
March after a mass shooting in
New Zealand. Prime Minister Ja-
cinda Ardern promised to deny a
platform for the white supremacist
who authorities said gunned down
50 people at two mosques.
Survivor who crossed path
with gunman thought it was a drill
The Associated Press
CHESAPEAKE, Va. — Even after the gunfire erupted, Ned Carlstrom
thought the shooting at the Virginia Beach government building where
he works was an elaborately staged drill for city employees. He crossed
paths with the gunman three times — and survived.
Reality set in when Carlstrom looked outside and saw a team of police
officers point guns at the building as they dragged away a fatally wounded
contractor, leaving behind a pool of blood.
Carlstrom said he locked eyes with the shooter, DeWayne Craddock,
twice during the rampage but didn’t exchange words over a blaring fire
alarm. He can only guess why Craddock killed 12 people but spared him,
never even pointing a gun at him.
He said that before the shooting, he often would have lighthearted con-
versations with the soft-spoken Craddock, a civil engineer, as they walked
into the office from the parking lot. He wonders if that’s why Craddock let
him live.
“I guess it’s a feeling of being fortunate,” Carlstrom told The Associated
Press on Sunday during an interview at his home in Chesapeake, Virginia.
Carlstrom, who works in the billing section of the city’s water depart-
ment, was sitting at his desk in a second-floor office when the shoot-
ing started Friday afternoon. He heard popping noises and co-workers
screaming. Carlstrom is responsible for monitoring the safety of stairwells
during drills, so he and a co-worker, Terry Inman, began piecing together
an evacuation plan for an active-shooter drill.
“We didn’t think it was real,” he said.
He said he turned a corner on his way to a stairwell and came face-to-
face with Craddock, who was armed with a handgun with a noise suppres-
sor.
“He had the gun down at his side. He was so close to me, he swung his
arm out, he damn near hit me with the gun. That’s how close we were,”
Carlstrom said. “But he never raised the gun at me. He looked up at me
briefly.”
“The goal is to kind of interrupt at Northeastern University who

Analysis: Mississippi says mental health demands exceed law

Federal prosecutors: Mississippi is violating a 1999 U.S. Supreme
Court decision which found that ‘unjustified’ confinement in a
mental hospital violates the Americans with Disabilities Act
By JEFF AMY
The Associated Press
JACKSON — There’s a man,
68 years old when a federal gov-
ernment expert met him, who at
the time had been admitted to
one of Mississippi’s state men-
tal hospitals 46 times in his life.
That man is an exemplar
of the case the federal govern-
ment will seek to make during
a bench trial that’s scheduled
to start Tuesday before U.S.
District Judge Carlton Reeves
in Jackson. Federal prosecutors
will tell Reeves that the state of
Mississippi is violating a 1999
U.S. Supreme Court decision
called Olmstead, which found
that “unjustified” confinement
in a mental hospital violates
the Americans with Disabilities
Act.
“The evidence at trial will
make clear that individuals
with serious mental illness can
be appropriately served in the
community,” wrote Deena Fox,
a lawyer for the Civil Rights
Division of the Justice Depart-
ment.
The state may not contest
many of the facts to which ex-
perts testify. Instead, Mississip-
pi’s defense boils down to: All
those things may be true, but
you still can’t legally make us
change.
That’s overstating it some.
Mississippi actually argues that
it’s doing pretty well by many
measures. But the bedrock of
the state’s defense is a conten-
tion that the federal govern-
ment is overreaching, trying to
eliminate all state mental hospi-
tals, and setting an impossible
standard.
“Olmstead does not require
states to deliver a mental health
service system that has no ‘un-
met needs’ or no ‘gaps’ in ser-
vice,” wrote James Shelson,
one of the private lawyers hired
by Attorney General Jim Hood
to defend Mississippi. “While
such a system is a worthy aspi-
ration of every state, it is unat-
tainable, no matter how many
injunctions courts issue.”
The state argues that the
federal government is illegally
trying to force a fundamental
alteration of Mississippi’s men-
tal health system, that it’s not
required to provide any partic-
ular standard of care, and that
the federal government hasn’t
done enough to sketch out what
changes it wants or how much
they would cost.
Reeves already refused
to dismiss the case on these
grounds. However, the state
may be aiming at the 5th U.S.
Circuit Court of Appeals or the
U.S. Supreme Court. If Missis-
sippi wins, it could undermine
the federal government’s abil-
ity to pursue Olmstead claims
against other states.
The federal government ar-
gues much of the state’s posi-
tion is bunk, though. For exam-
ple, Fox cites a previous court
ruling that says a state can’t as-
sert a “fundamental alteration”
defense unless it actually has a
plan to comply with Olmstead.
Department of Mental Health
Deputy Director Steven Allen
testified in a deposition that
he’d never seen an Olmstead
plan for Mississippi.
The state later said that the
department strategic plans are
its Olmstead plan, but Fox said
they “still do not include mea-
surable goals.” Even if they did,
she said the state can’t show the
plans actually result in fewer
people being hospitalized, not-
ing inpatients have been steady
at roughly 3,000 for the past five
years.
More importantly, the feder-
al government argues that the
state already has effective com-
munity-based services, such as
crisis intervention teams and
what’s called the Program of
Assertive Community Treat-
ment, but just doesn’t offer
them in enough places.
Fox wrote the state “cannot
credibly argue that extending
existing services to individuals
who need them to avoid unnec-
essary hospitalizations is any-
thing but a reasonable modifi-
cation of its service system.”
The patients the federal ex-
perts interviewed are anony-
mous, so it’s unclear what hap-
pened to that 68-year-old man.
But what happens in a federal
courtroom in coming weeks
could determine whether the
federal government can force
Mississippi to do more to send
similar people outside the walls
of state hospitals.

break, during a commer-
cial, our newsman stuck
his head on the door and
told us he’d switch to the Marc Dion
live feed of Mueller at the
end of hour, just at the
start of the break. The break went long because we
broadcast the whole statement, and a little bit of the
commentary that followed.
And that’s where I was because you have to be
somewhere when big history happens.
The statement, boiled free of Mueller’s needed
gentle legalese, says the Russian government influ-
enced this country’s last presidential election, and
President Donald J. Trump’s people welcomed the
help, and that Trump’s people tried to kill Mueller’s
investigation at every turn.
If, as the endless, puking Facebook posts say,
stepping on the flag is the ultimate insult to Ameri-
ca (And it’s not. There are insults far dirtier), then
Trump’s office should be carpeted in flags, because
every step he takes is a dirty shoe on the American
flag. His underwear should be printed with flags,
and so should his toilet paper.
And transgender people didn’t do this to Ameri-
ca. And African Americans didn’t do this to Amer-
ica. And gay people didn’t do this to America. And
illegal immigrants didn’t do this to America. And
the Chinese didn’t do this to America. And Hillary
Clinton didn’t do this to America. And football
players taking a knee didn’t do this to America. And
people who believe in climate change didn’t do this
to America. Women who want abortions, atheists,
Jihadis, Muslims, Crips, Bloods — none of them did
this to America.
We did this; the free, the white, the bigoted
masses of frightened people whose endless capacity
for screeching hate was ripped open by a Russian
laser of fake news that told you ham was banned
in Dearborn, Michigan, and Michelle Obama has
a penis, and other very stupid pieces of fake news
that the Russians knew we were scared enough to
believe.
We kept our eyes on the flag and lost sight of the
country. Rushing to thank a veteran for his service,
we walked right over the Constitution. We kept our
Bibles and our guns, and threw away everything
else. The Chinese, who make everything else, let us
make our own chains.
In the decades after America’s racially segregat-
ed army stormed ashore at Normandy Beach, we
built freedom from prosperity. No more lynchings!
Reproductive rights! Gay marriage! Voting for
everyone!
And then, scared and stupid, brains filled with
fake news, we traded every bit of it for a sickening
return to the most bigoted, narrow-minded America
we could remember, back to the days when patrio-
tism was waving the American flag at a lynching.
This is our Normandy Beach, our moment to free
our own country. The ballot still shines like an un-
sheathed sword. Take it up. Use it to take back the
America we started to make, and almost finished
making, before the Russians found this clownish
front man who walks on the American flag with
every step he takes.

century, and Europe, forever of Creole Cuisine,
‘So many dead. So many young men, young boys,
killed on the spot. It was difficult to see and absorb.’
By RAF CASERT
The Associated Press
ON OMAHA BEACH, France —
All at once, Charles Shay tried to
stanch the bleeding from a ripped-
open stomach, dull the pain with
morphine and soothe the mind of a
dying fellow American army medic.
It was a tall order for a 19-year-old
who had just set foot on the Europe-
an mainland for the first time.
But nothing could have prepared
him for what happened on June 6,
1944, on five cold, forbidding beach-
es in northern France. It was D-Day,
one of the most significant 24-hour
periods of the 20th century, the hor-
rifying tipping point in World War
II that defined the future of Europe.
That morning, Shay could not
yet fathom what the event would
ultimately mean. He was more con-
cerned with the bleeding soldiers,
body parts and corpses strewn
around him, and the machine-gun
fire and shells that filled the air.
“You have to realize my vision of
the beach was very small. I could
only experience what I could see,”
he told The Associated Press,
speaking from the now-glimmering
Omaha Beach, where he landed 75
years ago.
International leaders will gather
again this week to honor the dwin-
dling number of D-Day veterans.
D-Day veteran Charles Shay
Shay, now 94, plans to be among the
crowd Thursday to welcome U.S.
President Donald Trump to France
as he pays homage to 9,388 dead
Americans, most of whom lost their
lives on D-Day or in the aftermath
of the Normandy offensive.
Omaha and adjacent Utah Beach
were America’s to take, but similar
acts of sacrifice and heroism hap-
pened on three other beachheads
to the east where Britain and Cana-
dian troops sought to break Hitler’s
stranglehold on the continent. In
all, the invasion covered 50 miles of
French shoreline.
Shay survived, but he did not
talk about the experience for well
over half a century.
“So many dead. So many young
men, young boys, killed on the
spot,” he said. “It was difficult to
see and absorb.”
A Penobscot native American
from Indian Island, Maine, Shay
was barely 5 when the Great De-
pression hit. Across the ocean, Ger-
many also faced economic misery
that, together with lingering bit-
terness over its defeat in World War
I, paved the way for Adolf Hitler’s
rise.
When containment failed, war
in Europe erupted in 1939, and
Hitler’s Nazis swarmed over much
of the continent. They took Paris
and were quickly at the Normandy
coastline. Britain remained out of
reach.
The United States, which had
slumbered into isolationism after its
victory in World War I, entered World
War II after the Japanese attacked
Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7, 1941. Germa-
ny declared war on the U.S. in sup-
port of its ally.
Shay was trained to be a machinist
but could not get a job because he was
expected to be drafted into the Army.
So before he knew what life was
really about, Shay found himself in
a hammock in the hold of the RMS
Queen Elizabeth. He was sailing
from New York to England, his final
destination unknown.
“I never had a sense of fear be-
cause I didn’t know what I was get-
ting in to,” Shay said.
The Germans knew an invasion
was coming but had no idea when or
where, and the most likely options
were 250 miles apart. Hitler prepared
an Atlantic Wall of defenses.
By early June, it was time for Gen.
Dwight D. Eisenhower to distrib-
ute the orders that he had honed for
months.
“The eyes of the world are upon
you,” he told his men. “You will bring
about the destruction of the German
war machine, the elimination of Nazi
tyranny.” The death toll was sure to
be enormous.
On the two American beach-
heads, the United States suffered
2,501 killed in action on June 6, 1944.
In all, an estimated 4,414 men died on
that single day, according to the latest
figures.
Leah Chase, dies at 96
‘Her daily joy was not simply
cooking, but preparing meals
to bring people together’
By REBECCA SANTANA
The Associated Press
NEW ORLEANS — New Orleans chef and
civil rights icon Leah Chase, who created the
city’s first white-tablecloth restaurant for black
patrons, broke the city’s segregation laws by seat-
ing white and black customers and introduced
countless tourists to Southern Louisiana Creole
cooking, died Saturday. She was 96.
Chase’s family released a statement to news
outlets Saturday night saying the “unwavering
advocate for civil liberties” and “believer in the
Spirit of New Orleans” died surrounded by fam-
ily.
“Her daily joy was not simply cooking, but pre-
paring meals to bring people together,” the state-
ment read. “One of her most prized contributions
was advocating for the Civil Rights Movement
through feeding those on the front lines of the
struggle for human dignity.”
Leah Chase transformed the Dooky Chase’s
restaurant from a sandwich shop where black
patrons bought lottery tickets to a refined restau-
rant where tourists, athletes, musicians and even
presidents of all races dined on fare such as jam-
balaya and shrimp Clemenceau. The restaurant
and Chase’s husband were both named after her
father-in-law.
Chase’s determination propelled her from a
small-town Louisiana upbringing to a celebrat-
ed chef who authored cookbooks, appeared on
cooking shows and fed civil rights greats such as
Thurgood Marshall and Martin Luther King Jr.
Well into her 90s, Chase could be found daily at
the restaurant, using a walker while greeting cus-
tomers and supervising the kitchen. The power
of food to transform a day and the desire to better

China blames US for trade dispute, but doesn’t escalate

By CHRISTOPHER
BODEEN
The Associated Press
BEIJING — China
fired back at the U.S. Sun-
day over the two nations’
trade dispute, issuing a
report that blamed the
conflict on the Trump
administration but re-
frained from escalating
the trade war.
The report from the
Cabinet spokesman’s of-
fice said China won’t back
down on “major issues of
principle,” but offered no
sense of whether or how
the world’s second larg-
est economy might retali-
ate against U.S. tariffs on
goods manufactured in
China.
The report said Chi-
na has kept its word
throughout 11 rounds of
talks and will honor its
commitments if a trade
agreement is reached. It
accused the U.S. of back-
tracking three times over
the course of the talks by
introducing new tariffs
and other conditions be-
yond what was agreed on.
“But the more the U.S.
government is offered,
the more it wants,” it said,
accusing America’s nego-
tiators of “resorting to in-
timidation and coercion.”
“A country’s sovereign-
ty and dignity must be
respected, and any agree-
ment reached by the two
sides must be based on
equality and mutual ben-
efit,” the report said.
The report, delivered
at a Sunday morning
news conference, appears
to be a bid to shore up
China’s arguments and
justify its position in the
face of what looks to be a
protracted dispute.
her city drove her.
“I love people and I love serving people. It’s
fun for me to serve people. Because sometimes
people will come in and they’re tired. And just a
little plate of food will make people happy,” she
said during a 2015 interview with The Associated
Press.
At a time when other black Creole women were
working in the city’s garment industry, Chase
worked as a waitress in the French Quarter,
which exposed her to the segregated city’s pricey
restaurants frequented by white people.

First, Monday was a
working day and midnight
is pretty late to be up when
you have to go to work in
the morning.
Second, Bulldog fans
have become accustomed
to winning.
It has become almost
like tying your shoelaces.
When you’re 4 years old,
everybody makes a big
deal of it. Not so much,
when you’re 10.
MSU has made 32
NCAA Regionals since
they were adopted 45
years ago, including four
in a row. It has won 15 of
those and its record in
those games is 84-43. The
latest regional saw MSU
beat Southern, Central
Michigan and Miami to
advance to its ninth Super
Regional since that for-
mat began 20 years ago.
For seniors like Mang-
um, all four seasons have
ended with the Bulldogs
as one of the last 16 teams
still playing, if not further.
This weekend, MSU
will try to reach the Col-
lege World Series for the
11th time in its history,
and second time in a

about at Main and Second

The project, which
began about a month
and a half ago, has not
seen any serious delays
since contractors with
Columbus-based Greg-
ory Construction broke
ground, said MDOT en-
gineer Mike Miller, who
works out of the MDOT
Starkville Project Office
and is in charge of the
project.
“We’re trying to get
the ramps on (Highway
82) widened,” he said.
“That’s our first priority.
We’re going to take care
of Highway 82 first, make
those improvements,
then move on to Military
Road.”
Improvements at the
18th Avenue North in-
terchange include a du-
Rickert
Continued from Page 1A
Stepping into a new
situation like that didn’t
really faze Rickert,
he said. Even making
friends was easy be-
cause many of his fellow
students — whether at
GTECHS or EMCC —
shared a common goal.
“All of us are real-
ly excited to get into
college so they’re a little
more mature,” he said.
“But it’s fun to be around
the older students. They
have more experience
than the rest of us, so I
row, something MSU has
never done. It will again
be at home at Dudy No-
ble. Stanford and Fresno
State will meet tonight
to determine which team
will have the privilege of
trying to beat MSU in a
best-of-three series.
That’s no small as-
signment. MSU is one of
a handful of places where
the home-field advantage
really comes in to play.
This past weekend, which
included a noon game
Friday — a crowd-killer
most places — and an 8
p.m. Sunday game — no
treat for the early-to-bed
crowd — MSU drew a lit-
tle more than 28,000 fans.
For many college baseball
programs, that’s a sea-
son’s worth of attendance.
That’s more than just a
point of pride for the Bull-
dogs. It matters, even on
the field, said Mangum.
“Mississippi State
baseball means a lot to
the people,” Mangum
said. “They came and
they were loud. You can-
not even describe how
much it helps. In college
baseball, you do not have
al-lane southbound exit
ramp to better accom-
modate high traffic flow
through the intersection.
It includes the installation
of a traffic signal where
the ramp merges with
18th Avenue North. That
signal, along with traffic
signals at two other inter-
sections with the on- and
off-ramps for the highway
and 18th Avenue, will be
synchronized with the
traffic light at the 18th Av-
enue-Fifth Street North
intersection to allow bet-
ter traffic flow. Ramps
both on and off Highway
82 from 18th Avenue will
be widened to accommo-
date an additional lane.
The $4.8 million proj-
ect is fully funded by
MDOT and is currently
“on budget and on time,”
Miller said, adding con-
can learn from them.”
Rickert plans to take
this summer to “breathe
and recharge” before
diving into his latest
challenge. He spends a
lot of time with friends,
and also volunteers
at Life Church in Co-
lumbus, which he has
attended for the past five
years.
“He’s a hardworking
guy and he’s got a lot
of personality,” said
Morgan Dentry, who
has known Rickert “for a

stadiums like this. When
you get opposing teams
to come in here, it almost
shell shocks you. I’m still
not used to it myself.”
Opposing players and
coaches noted the atmo-
sphere at Dudy Noble
Field without prompting.
It is one of the sport’s
unique venues.
That has been true
for more than 40 years,
ever since Ron Polk ar-
rived at MSU in the 1970s
and turned the Bulldog
baseball program into
something unknown in
the college game — a
bona fide spectator sport,
something people in large
numbers would pay good
money to see.
MSU always has been
special in that regard,
but it is more special now,
thanks to a $68-million
stadium renovation/ex-
pansion christened this
year.
The Bulldogs play in a
palatial park that caters
to the comfort and enjoy-
ment of its dedicated fan
base.
Among the amenities,
located at the entrance
struction crews will be
laying down asphalt and
completing ramp widen-
ing in the coming weeks.
“As work progress-
es, it’ll be easier to see
the progress,” he added.
“Right now, it hasn’t im-
pacted traffic yet. ... May-
be when the new lights
go in, but I don’t see that
being too bad.”
The only issue the proj-
ect faced came earlier in
the year when rains and
flooding prevented work
crews from breaking
ground because every-
thing was too wet.
“Getting started was
what was difficult, but
progress hasn’t been be-
hind aside from that,” he
said. “By the schedule
we’re going by, we’re set
to be done on time. But
this is really the initial
long time” through their
mutual connections at
Life Church. “But he’s
way humble. We know
we’re all lucky to have
him here.”
Rickert said he knows
he’s not “ordinary” and
that his decision to
attend college at the age
of 17 isn’t traditional or
typical. But, thanks to
a childhood struggle
with anxiety, he said
he’s learned to “just not
care.”
“When I was a kid,
to the park, are statues
of Bulldog greats Rafael
Palmeiro and Will Clark.
As midnight ap-
proached Sunday, only a
few stragglers remained.
Among them were a cou-
ple of boys in their little
league uniforms, who
stood by the statues,
striking a pose to mim-
ic those of the Bulldogs’
legendary players as their
dad snapped photos.
At a time when so much
around us seems subject
to sudden, irredeemable
change, baseball remains
a fixed touchstone. For
generations, kids have
been wearing their little
league uniforms to ball-
parks to watch their he-
roes. It’s one of those Nor-
man Rockwell moments,
nostalgic and reassuring.
For all the changes,
some things endure.
At Mississippi State,
baseball is one of them.

stuff we’re doing right
now.”
Miller estimates
the entire Military
Road-Highway 82 project
will be completed by next
May, adding the Main
Street-Second Street
roundabout project is not
scheduled to begin con-
struction until next year.
City Engineer Kevin
Stafford, who works for
Neel-Schaffer, told The
Dispatch that, since the
entire project is funded by
MDOT, the city has little
to no involvement in the
construction process.
“When we get ques-
tions about (the project)
or have questions, I just
go straight to (Miller),”
he said. “Since MDOT is
providing all the funding,
it’s a state project.”
that was something I
dealt with a lot, but then
I started to take more
risks and make bold
decisions,” he said. “It
was really difficult at
first, but it got easier the
older I got.
“And I just started
to be myself more,” he
added, lifting a foot and
gesturing to his mis-
matched Crocs. “That
always helps. I’m not a
cookie-cutter kind of
person. But I like the
way I am.”

The new Dude shows it remains ‘pinnacle’

BY BEN PORTNOY
bportnoy@cdispatch.com
STARKVILLE — In the midst of an
at-bat in the fourth inning Sunday, the
9,014 fans at Dudy Noble Field burst into
cheers.
“Maroon!” yelled the folks sitting on
third-base side of the grandstand.
“White!” responded their first-base
counterparts.
Momentarily, “The Dude” was en-
gulfed in bellowing chants heard that
mimicked Saturdays in the fall at Davis
Wade Stadium.
“In college baseball, you do not have
stadiums like this,” Mississippi State se-
nior center fielder Jake Mangum said.
“When you get opposing teams to come
in here, it almost shell shocks you. I am
still not used to it.”
For weeks, MSU had preached it
needed a strong home crowd come play-
off time. The MSU faithful delivered Sat-
urday and Sunday, as over 20,000 people
made it to Dudy Noble Field for the fi-
nal two days of the NCAA tournament’s
Starkville Regional.
Those fans helped give top-seeded
and No. 6 national seed MSU an advan-
tage it capitalized on in a clinching 5-2
victory against second-seeded Miami.
The victory sends MSU (49-13) on to
the best-of-three Super Regional, where
it will play host to No. 11 national seed
Stanford or Fresno State.
When the MSU Athletic Department
announced plans for renovations to
Dudy Noble Field, fans responded with
concerns they would lose the old-school
nature of a venue that has earned the
distinction of being the Carnegie Hall of
College Baseball.

During the parade laps, Marlar,

The MAG feature Saturday at Magnolia Motor Speed- $15,000-to-win race, Marlar took
way. It was his race-tying third career win since the the lead from Tim McCreadie and
Clash began in 2006. led the rest of the way, hugging
the bottom and fighting lap traffic
through a caution-less race for his
third Clash at The MAG win.
“I had a really awesome car,”
Marlar said. “I just needed to be pa-
tient. There’s a lot of driving going
on in those first 30 or 40 laps. I was
in a pressure cooker.”
Marlar piloted the same Rocket
chassis he drove to the 2018 Crafts-
man World of Outlaw Late Model
Series championship. He has run
that car five times this season, split-
ting time between it and the No. 6
Longhorn car for K&L Rumley En-
terprises.
Marlar ended the weekend with
two additional top-five finishes at
Magnolia, where he again displayed
his mastery of “the slick.” Marlar
credits his success at Magnolia to
his early days racing Street Stocks
and UMP Modifieds, cars that have
“no grip,” he said.
“It’s tedious, but it works for me,”
Marlar said. “But then again, there
are some slick tracks I go to where
I’m not so good. There’s a lot that
goes into it — configuration, bank-
ing, etc. — but this is a fun place.
It’s a great town. It has all the ame-
nities that you’d want. If you don’t
live here, it’s a fun place to come
hang out for a day or two.”
McCreadie finished second for
the third-straight race at Magno-
lia, but the 100 laps Saturday were
much more frustrating. He said
he couldn’t make it through “the
rough” as easily as Marlar, and he
couldn’t push the car as wide. Still,
for a moment midway through the
race, he tried to move off the bot-
tom to find more speed, cutting the
distance to the lead to a couple of
car lengths.
“I started seeing some numbers
on the board — you know who they
are and have an idea where they
might be running — so I changed
my line, thinking, ‘Well, do I want

College baseball

Rebels romp over Jacksonville St. to win Oxford Regional

From Special Reports
OXFORD — The top-seed-
ed and No. 12 national seed
Ole Miss baseball team rout-
ed fourth-seeded Jacksonville
State 19-4 on Sunday to sweep
the NCAA tournament’s Ox-
ford Regional.
The win pushed Ole Miss
(40-25) back to the Super Re-
gionals for the first time since
2014. Ole Miss will take on
Southeastern Conference rival
Arkansas, the No. 5 national
seed, this weekend in the Fay-
etteville Super Regional.
Much like in a 16-2 victory
against Jacksonville State (39-
23) on Friday night, Ole Miss
used big innings to break the
game open. The Rebels scored
five runs in the third, six in the
fourth, and five more in the
sixth. Thomas Dillard sparked
the Rebels with a leadoff home
run in the top of the first. He
added a grand slam in the
fourth.
Gunnar Hoglund (3-2) was
the beneficiary of the offensive
fireworks. He allowed five hits
and one earned run in 5 1/3
innings. He struck out five and
walked none. Houston Roth,
Connor Green, and Max Cioffi
closed it out on the mound.
Ole Miss scored 41 runs in
its three victories to set a new
postseason high.
Cooper Johnson’s two-RBI
single into left center field
helped the Rebels add on to the
lead in the third. Jacob Adams
drew a bases-loaded walk to
score another run, while two
more scored on a sacrifice fly
by Dillard and a wild pitch that
plated Anthony Servideo.
Ole Miss used a single, walk,
and another walk to load the
bases in the fourth. Dillard
made the Gamecocks pay with
his second big swing of the
day. Dillard finished with seven
RBIs, which is one shy of the
eight-RBI performance against
Tulane earlier this season.
Seeking some insurance,
Ole Miss added six runs in the
sixth, surpassing its run total
of 16 against Jacksonville State
on Friday night. Every starter
made a plate appearance in the
inning, with Servideo, Adams,
Dillard, Cole Zabowski, and
Ryan Olenek all scoring a run.
Dillard missed his third home
run by a few feet, but settled for
an RBI double.
Olenek also doubled in the
inning, placing him in a tie for
the school’s all-time double list
with 54. He is six doubles back
of the all-time record.
NOTES: Ole Miss recorded
its ninth 40-win season in pro-
gram history, and the eighth
under coach Mike Bianco. The
Rebels have won 40 games in
back-to-back seasons for the
first time 2006-07. … The 19
runs are the third-most Ole
Miss team has scored in NCAA
tournament play.

Eagles’ post-season ends with tough loss at LSU

From Staff and Wire Reports
BATON ROUGE, La. — The South-
ern Mississippi baseball team’s magical
ride in the NCAA tournament’s Baton
Rouge Regional ended short of its in-
tended destination.
Josh Smith hit a solo home run and a
two-run triple to help top-seeded and No.
13 national seed LSU beat third-seeded
Southern Miss 6-4 on Sunday night at
Alex Box Stadium.
LSU (40-24) won all three of its games
in the regional to earn the right to play
host to Florida State (39-21), which up-
set No. 4 national seed Georgia, this
weekend in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
The winner will earn a trip to the Col-
lege World Series in Omaha, Nebraska.
Smith led off the bottom of the first
inning with a home run to right on the
first pitch he saw to make it 1-0. He made
it 3-0 in the second with a two-out, two-
run triple to left center.
Southern Miss (40-21) responded
with Gabe Montenegro’s home run in
the fourth. The Golden Eagles took the
lead with a three-run rally in the fifth,
highlighted by Danny Lynch’s two-run
single to center. But the Golden Eagles
left the bases loaded when home runs
leader Matt Wallner struck out waving
at a breaking ball from reliever Matthew
Beck.
LSU’s Antoine Duplantis had two hits.
His first, a lined single to center, placed
him first in career hits at LSU with 353,
surpassing Eddy Furniss (1995-98). He
waved to the crowd as he received a
standing ovation and teammates along
the first-base dugout saluted him with
hats held high in the air.
Duplantis led off the seventh with
a single to left against Southern Miss
starter Josh Lewis (1-1) and scored the
on Zach Watson’s two run single, which
put LSU back in front, 5-4. Saul Garza’s
double off the wall drove in Watson.
Trent Vietmeier (3-1) pitched two
scoreless innings in the sixth and sev-
enth. Devin Fontenot came on in the
eighth, recording six outs without allow-
ing a run for his seventh save.
Southern Miss advanced to the re-
gional final by stunning second-seeded
Arizona State 13-12 in walk-off fashion.
Montenegro’s two-run single to right
with two outs helped the Golden Eagles
rally from a 10-2 deficit in the fifth and a
12-6 hole in the eighth. Matthew Guidry
homered with two on and two out to
make it 12-9.
Southern Miss opened the bottom of
ninth with two singles and walk to load
the bases with none out, and reliever
Blake Burzell hit Hunter LeBlanc with
a pitch to force home one run. Danny
Lynch’s sacrifice fly to right made it 12-
11 and moved the tying run to third be-
fore LeBlanc took second on a pitch in
the dirt.
Reliever Chaz Montoya struck out
Storme Cooper before Montenegro, who
went 5-for-6, rolled a 2-1 pitch between
the first and second basemen, sending
Southern Miss into a matchup with host
LSU.
Southern Miss reliever Brant Blay-
lock (2-1) pitched a scoreless ninth for
the win, while Burzell (5-1) took his first
loss.
Wallner hit his 23rd home run of the
season.
Spencer Torkelson had three hits —
including his 23rd homer this season
— and drove in three runs for Arizona
State (38-19).

Mangum
Continued from Page 1B
Southeastern Conference’s all-
time hits leader delivered with a
dribbler down to the third base
side of the pitcher’s mound. Mi-
ami right-hander Slade Cecconi
fielded the ball, but he slipped
as he collected himself, which
helped Mangum beat the throw
to first base.
“I hit a ball four feet,” Mang-
um said. “And baseball, the
weird game it is, I started find-
ing some barrels.”
Mangum added another sin-
gle and a double in a two-run
eighth that helped top-seeded
and No. 6 national seed MSU
defeat second-seeded Miami
5-2 before a crowd of 9,014 in the
deciding game of the Starkville
Regional at Dudy Noble Field.
With MSU (49-13) cling-
ing to a 3-2 lead in the eighth,
Mangum dug in for his fourth
and final plate appearance.
Sitting on an 0-1 pitch, Mang-
um roped a double into the
right-center field gap to move
senior Marshall Gilbert to third
base.
“He is the ultimate compet-
itor,” Lemonis said. “We knew
he’d fight out of it.”
Mangum led the Southeast-
ern Conference in hits (97) and
ranked second in batting av-
erage (.363) as of May 24. His
effort against Miami (41-20)
helped him become the first
player in program history to
post multiple 100-hit seasons.
He now has 100 hits, which is
one shy of his total last season.
The double was the 71st of his
career, which moved him into a
tie atop the MSU career chart
with Travis Chapman (1997-
2000).
MSU is 26-3 when Mangum
records a multi-hit game. It is
21-10 when he doesn’t.
“It’s miserable to be strug-
gling and losing,” Mangum
said. “But when you’re winning
it’s easy to stay positive — and
that’s a testament to the guys in
that locker room.”
Shortstop Jordan Westburg,
who hit .140 in May, went 2-for-
4 with two RBIs — both of
which came on a two-run dou-
ble in the eighth that stretched
MSU’s lead to three.
Mangum and Westburg
combined for five of MSU’s
eight hits — a stark contrast
from the 18 runs and 28 hits it
posted against Central Michi-
gan and Southern earlier in the
weekend.
Junior Dustin Skelton and
sophomore Tanner Allen add-
ed RBI singles in the three-run
fourth.
Sophomore Justin Foscue
plated MSU’s other run with a
sacrifice fly to deep center field
in the same frame.
MSU’s pitching staff contin-
ued its steady ride through the
NCAA tournament.
Senior Peyton Plumlee, who
started his first game since May
18, allowed two runs on five hits
and struck out three. He struck
out at least three for the fifth
time in his last six starts.
“I was talking to coach
(Scott) Foxhall before the game
and usually when I get to the
field I start getting the jitters
leading up to any start, or any
game really,” Plumlee said. “I
told him today I felt really com-
fortable for some reason and I
didn’t have those nerves just be-
cause of the comfort I have with
our guys and the way they were
hitting the ball.
“I knew that if I went into the
game and kept it close and gave
us a shot to win the bats were
going to pick me up.”
Seniors Cole Gordon and
Jared Liebelt, redshirt junior
Trysten Barlow, and junior Col-
by White allowed three hits in
the final four innings.
Lemonis initially said Gor-
don wouldn’t be available for
the game given he had thrown
three innings the last two
nights. But Gordon spoke to
Lemonis in pregame warmups
and convinced him to let him
earn his 11th save.
With the victory, MSU ad-
vances to the Super Regionals
for the fourth-straight season.
It is the only program in the na-
tion to accomplish that feat.
MSU will play host to Stan-
ford or Fresno State in the best-
of-three Super Regional this
weekend. The Cardinal, the No.
11 national seed, and Bulldogs
will play a decisive game seven
at 9 p.m. Monday in Palo Alto,
California.

Barlow The MAG

Continued from Page 1B
Barlow re-set. He then delivered a
1-2 pitch Zamora grounded toward
shortstop Jordan Westburg.
With a flick of the wrist and a
quick exchange, Westburg and
sophomores Justin Foscue and Tan-
ner Allen sealed a 6-4-3 double play.
Although Miami plated a run on
the play, Barlow then retired Adrian
Del Castillo — who finished the re-
gional with three home runs — on a
first-pitch fly out to left field to end
the threat and help MSU preserve
a 3-2 lead.
“It was hard to take Peyton
Plumlee out because he had been
so good,” Lemonis said. “But we
knew the matchup was there. It
worked for us.”
The efforts of Barlow and
hard-throwing junior Colby White
proved to be critical parts of
top-seeded and No. 6 national seed
MSU’s 5-2 victory against sec-
ond-seeded Miami in the NCAA
tournament’s Starkville Regional.
Barlow didn’t allow a hit in his in-
ning, while White struck out two of
the four batters he faced.
After the game, Lemonis ad-
dressed the contributions of Barlow
and White in the regional champi-
onship victory.
“They have been big for us all
year with the element that we can
match up in our bullpen,” he said.
The awards keep on coming
MSU placed six players on the
Starkville All-Regional team.
Redshirt junior Ethan Small,
junior Dustin Skelton, and sopho-
mores Justin Foscue, Tanner Allen,
Rowdey Jordan, and Josh Hatcher
were honored.
Jordan also was named the re-
gional’s Most Valuable Player after
going 7-for-13 with five RBIs and
three runs scored in three games.
“It was a big weekend,” he said.
“I battled through some adversity
at the beginning of the year. Being
MVP this weekend means a lot.”
Mac is back — kind of
Two days after getting his first
start since aggravating a foot injury
against No. 14 Ole Miss on May 12,
senior Elijah MacNamee returned
to the defensive lineup.
MacNamee started in his usual
right field spot Sunday against Mi-
ami for the first time since he was
sidelined.
MacNamee went 0-for-4 with
two strikeouts.
With four days between the vic-
tory and MSU’s next game against
Stanford or Fresno State, MacNa-
mee is expected to be the Bulldogs’
right fielder in the Super Regionals.

to sit here, struggle
around this bottom for
second, third or fourth, or
do I want to try and win?’
” McCreadie said, “so I
tried to move up — may-
be I should have moved all
the way up to see what I
had — but I was so free-in
that I couldn’t.
“We started making
time, and I felt the car
improve, but when I got
to Mikey, that little bit of
track that was left started
to go away.”
While McCreadie
was chasing Marlar and
Davenport was gaining
ground on both of them,
Marlar had to fight the
urge to abandon the bot-
tom.
“Once I got in the lead,
it was really a question the
rest of the race of wheth-
ond-place finishes. He’ll
take it, but he’s eager to
start turning more consis-
tently fast laps.
“We have raw speed,
but we don’t have consis-
tent speed,” McCreadie
said. “If we run 20 laps, we
might have seven that are
astronomically better, but
the next 13 might be off a
little bit. We just have to
go to work.”
Davenport finished
third, while Josh Rich-
ards and Earl Pearson Jr.
rounded out the top five.

Lounge grills simmered above the
low-hanging outfield lights.
Fans lined the bannisters down
the first- and third-base lines as
standing room only onlookers took
in the Bulldogs’ victory against the
Hurricanes (41-20).
But the concerns about intimacy
were lost. The baseball capitol of
the South looked the part.
“It is the pinnacle of college
baseball,” MSU baseball coach
Chris Lemonis said of the raucous
playoff atmosphere. “I know there
are some other great places, but I
know there is nothing better than
Dudy Noble.”
Beyond the MSU contingent of

fans, the Bulldogs’ visitors mar-
veled about the extravagance of the
atmosphere.
“I think our guys have been
soaking it up, and soaking it up
and enjoying it,” Central Michigan
coach Jordan Bischel said. “I think
it creates a great experience for our
guys.”
Said Miami coach Gino DiMare,
“The fans here are awesome. Mis-
sissippi State fans are first class
people. They cheer for their team,
and I did not hear anything deroga-
tory. As a matter of fact, some of our
players came to the game last night,
and they were very friendly to our
guys.”
As MSU celebrated its fourth-
straight Super Regional berth, the
Bulldogs took a victory lap down
the lines.
Trotting around the warning
track, the team received high fives
along the outfield wall as fans clam-
bered over the barrier to touch
their beloved Bulldogs.
As the night closed, Mangum
was asked about the crowd in his
second-to-last weekend of competi-
tion in Starkville.
“Mississippi State baseball
means a lot to the people,” Mang-
um said. “They came and they were
loud.”
er or not I should be that
low because I could tell I
could move out a lane or
two and still carry a lit-
tle bit of speed,” Marlar
said. “All of these guys
are high-level racers. If
you get to bobbling and
they start smelling blood,
they’re getting you in a lap
or two. I started getting
excited a bit with some lap
cars, and I had to remind
myself to calm down,
breathe a little bit, and, if
I was going to get passed,
make them drive around
the outside of me.
“A lot of emotion goes
on in a race. You just have
to maintain them and con-
trol them. I was fortunate
enough to do that.”

NBA Finals

Warriors beat Raptors 109-104 to even NBA Finals

By BRIAN MAHONEY
The Associated Press
TORONTO — The Gold-
en State Warriors relied on a
champion’s heart to overcome
their weary bodies.
Klay Thompson scored 25
points before leaving with a
hamstring injury, Stephen Cur-
ry had 23 and the Warriors ran
off the first 18 points of the sec-
ond half on the way to a 109-104
victory over the Toronto Rap-
tors on Sunday night that tied
the NBA Finals at one game
apiece.
With Kevin Durant already
out and Thompson eventually
joining him in the fourth quar-
ter, the Warriors don’t feel great
— but they would’ve felt a whole
lot worse flying home in a 2-0
hole.
“I think that when you get to
this stage, our DNA shows up,”
Curry said.
Andre Iguodala, himself
slow to get up after a hard fall in
the first half, made the clinch-
ing 3-pointer with 5.9 seconds
left after the Raptors scored 10
straight points to cut it to 106-
104.
Kawhi Leonard had 34 points
and 14 rebounds for the Rap-
tors. They had won five straight
since falling behind 2-0 in the
Eastern Conference finals.
Curry appeared to be labor-
ing as well in the first half, re-
turning to the locker room in
the midst of six straight misses
to start the game.
But the Warriors cobbled
together a good enough finish
to the second quarter to keep
it close, then stormed out of the
locker room with one of their
vintage third-quarter charges
that have been so frequent
during their run to five straight
NBA Finals.
“Third quarter we didn’t
play well enough. We missed
too many shots,” Raptors guard
Kyle Lowry said. “They got out
in transition and got a little con-
fidence going. We lost the game
there.”
DeMarcus Cousins was in-
serted into the starting line-
up and delivered 11 points, 10
rebounds and six assists, and
Draymond Green had 17 points,
10 rebounds and nine assists —
missing by one assist a fourth
straight triple-double.
The series moves to their
Oracle Arena for Games 3 and
4, with the first NBA Finals to
be played outside the U.S. as-
sured of returning to Canada
for Game 5.
The Warriors will hope to
have enough healthy bodies to
get through it. Thompson land-
ed awkwardly after a 3-point at-
tempt early in the fourth quar-
ter and limped off soon after,
with backup center Kevon Loo-
ney already missing the second
half with a chest or shoulder
injury.
And Golden State is still
without Durant, who missed
his seventh straight game with
a strained right calf but hopes
to return during the series.
For now, they got key contri-
butions from Quinn Cook, who
hit three 3-pointers, and veter-
an center Andrew Bogut, who
wasn’t even part of the roster
most of the season but came off
the bench for three baskets.
“It was a great win. We got to
go home and protect our home
floor and we’ll see about all the
injuries,” coach Steve Kerr said.
“But I’m very proud of our team
and in particular all the guys off
the bench.”
Kerr said Thompson told
him that he thought his injury
was minor and he’d be fine, but
added that “Klay could be half
dead and he would say he would
be fine.” Kerr was unsure the
nature of Looney’s injury.
Fred VanVleet scored 17
points for the Raptors, who had
red T-shirts with their slogan
“We The North” hanging on
seats around the arena.
The Warriors sure were
seeing red, especially Curry,
during a mostly miserable first
half when they missed 20 of
their first 28 shots.

TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June
3). Your pleasure and delight
is more important than you’ve
been making it. To keep your
energy strong and your opti-
mism bright, ask, “What’s in it
for me?” more often. People
around you keep you close
because you add something so
special to the party (or job, fam-
ily, event, etc.) that things just
BABY BLUES wouldn’t be the same without
you. Cancer and Gemini adore
you. Your lucky numbers are: 9,
30, 7, 10 and 15.
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
You’ll add to your support team.
There’s a lot you want in team
members — availability, com-
patibility, affinity... Don’t forget
BEETLE BAILEY
MALLARD FILLMORE
FAMILY CIRCUS
the main point: that the person
is capable of and enthusiastic
about supporting you in some
way.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
When you don’t do what you tell
yourself to do, it’s a sign that
there’s something you’ve yet to
understand about yourself. Con-
sider for a moment that you may
have needs that have escaped
your awareness.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
Anything worth doing will involve
some degree of improvisation,
probably because it’s so freshly
experimental that you don’t yet
have everything you need. It’s
when you’re making it up as you
go that you have the most fun.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
As anyone who’s been to a
theme park with more than two
people can attest, as groups
grow in numbers, they get expo-
nentially more complicated.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).
You want to be involved in the
projects that are glory-bound.
They require greater courage
and responsibility, though,
because the stakes are higher
and there’s a lot that could go
wrong.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
The real conversation starts af-
ter trust has been established.
Anything before that will be
either too boring to remember
or some less-than-true version
of the story.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
Emotions are like a fluid, always
seeking to equalize. This is
happening inside you, different
emotions mixing together and
settling into a level. It’s also
happening between you and
others. No one is completely
impervious.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov.
21). If you want people to get
behind you, you have to first get
behind them. Start small. Join;
volunteer; and help. Building
trust is an absolute must. There
is no influence without trust.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). The emotions that are
most likely to block your energy
or progress are the uncatego-
rized ones. Put a name to the
feeling, and then you’ll know
how to put it to good use.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). Those who don’t take
no for an answer are missing
the opportunity in no. No is a
chance to clarify what each
party wants and eliminate the
options that don’t qualify.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). There are many paths to
where you’re going. They’ve
all been paved, measured and
mapped. Those are not for
you. Your route is going to be
different and wonderful. Prepare
to forge it.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March
20). Everyone has time for what
they care deeply about. You can
use this in a reverse engineer-
ing sort of way, too. If you’re
not sure what you care deeply
about, just look at where your
time goes.

The honeymoon is over
