MSU CROSS COUNTRY

MINOT, N.D. (MSU) – Minot State’s Jacob Jensen led the way among all the NCAA Division II runners Friday night in South Dakota, powering the Beavers to a seventh-place finish. Jensen’s performance, a fourth-place overall finish at the Augustana Twilight meet as he was bested only by a trio of NCAA Division I runners from South Dakota State, earned him the first NSIC Male Runner of the Week award announced by the conference on Tuesday. Jensen clocked a time of 19 minutes, 23..89 seconds on the 4-mile course in Sioux Falls, S.D., and finished just 15 seconds off the winning time. His performance led the Minot State men’s team to a seventh-place finish in a field of 32 teams that included numerous NCAA Division I programs. The honor was the first of the fall for Jensen and the Minot State men’s team, which is back in action this coming Friday at the Minnesota State Moorhead Dragon’s Twilight.

TWINS-YANKEES

 

NEW YORK (AP) — Game two of the Minnesota Twins four game series in New York against the Yankees was rained out on Tuesday night. It will be made up today as part of a single-admission doubleheader. The Twins plan to call up local kid Louie Varland to start the opener in his Major League debut. The 24-year-old right-hander was born in St. Paul, Minnesota, where he went to Concordia University before getting picked by his hometown team in the 15th round of the 2019 amateur draft. Varland is 1-1 with a 1.69 ERA and 27 strikeouts in 21 1/3 innings over four starts for Triple-A St. Paul. He went 7-4 with a 3.34 ERA in 19 starts and one relief outing for Double-A Wichita this season. Right-hander Joe Ryan (10-7, 3.88 ERA), who had been slated to start Tuesday, goes in the second game. Yankees ace Gerrit Cole (10-7, 3.28 ERA), who was scheduled to start Tuesday, was pushed back to tonight’s nightcap. Domingo Germán (2-3, 3.12) will pitch the opener for New York. Cole gave up a career-high five homers in 2 1/3 innings June 9 at Minnesota. First pitch of game one is scheduled for 2:05 pm Central Time. Minnesota enters the day 1 1/2 games behind first-place Cleveland in the AL Central.
