IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) - Former Iowa football player Cedric
Everson has pleaded not guilty in a sexual assault case.
Everson and former teammate Abe Satterfield are accused of
sexually assaulting a woman in a campus dormitory on Oct. 14.
Both men are charged with second-degree sexual abuse.
Satterfield also is charged with third-degree sexual abuse.
According to online court records, Everson entered a written
plea on Monday in Johnson County District Court.
Satterfield filed for a continuance in his case on Monday.
Coach Kirk Ferentz suspended both players in late October.
Everson and Satterfield have since transferred to other schools.
OLYMPIC SENDOFF
Johnson, Jones honored
DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - Iowa gave a big Olympic sendoff
yesterday to gymnast Shawn Johnson and hurdler Lolo Jones.
Johnson and Jones, both native Iowans, were cheered on by a
crowd of 1,400 at the Iowa Events Center. Both will be competing in
their first Olympics next month in Beijing.
Johnson attends Valley High in West Des Moines. She won the
all-around championship at the U.S. Olympic Trials in Philadelphia.
Johnson, just 16, is a favorite to capture gold.
Jones attended Des Moines Roosevelt High. She won the 100-meter
hurdles at the Olympic Trials in Eugene, Ore last week.
WATERLOO-HOMECOMING
Flood-weary Waterloo Bucks return to home stadium
WATERLOO, Iowa (AP) - The Waterloo Bucks, a summer league team
made up of college players, returned to its home park last weekend.
That's after six weeks of forced exile.
The Bucks hadn't played at Riverfront Stadium since the Cedar
River spilled over its banks in early June and flooded out the
park. It turned the first half of the season into one long road
trip and left management scrambling to save the 62-year-old park.
Team owner John Marso says the flood cost the team nearly
$300,000 in lost revenue.That's about half what it takes in during
a typical season, which runs from late May until the middle of
August.
The Bucks lost 16 home dates. They also played six games at a
nearby high school.
