KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Reliever Wade Davis is returning to the Kansas City Royals, the team he helped pitch to the 2015 World Series title. Davis and the Royals agreed to a minor league contract, and the 35-year-old right-hander will go to spring training trying to earn a spot on the major league roster. 

Davis is a three-time All-Star who had 47 saves for the Royals from 2013-16. He pitched the final out of the 2015 World Series against the New York Mets, throwing a called third strike past Wilmer Flores. Davis had two saves for Colorado during last year’s pandemic-shortened season, when his ERA shot up to 20.77. The Rockies released him in September.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes remains in the NFL’s concussion protocol, but practiced in a limited capacity on Wednesday, raising hopes the reigning Super Bowl MVP can play in Sunday’s AFC title game against Buffalo. 

The Chiefs typically breeze through practice on Wednesday with little contact before ramping things up on Thursday, and coach Andy Reid said that fit perfectly with what Mahomes was able to do. Reid didn’t say what phase of the five-step process Mahomes is in to be cleared to play, but the work he described his quarterback doing coincides with the fourth step.

Monday high school basketball scores

MANHATTAN, Kan.&nbsp;–&nbsp;<a></a>Kansas State true freshman&nbsp;Deuce Vaughn&nbsp;picked up yet another postseason accolade as he was named the all-purpose player on the 2020 Football Writers Association of America (FWAA) Freshman All-America Team, the organization announced Monday.

Vaughn is the eighth Wildcat to be named to the team since the FWAA began naming Freshman All-Americans in 2001.&nbsp;It is the second-straight season a Wildcat has been named a Freshman All-American by the FWAA and the fifth in the last 10 years.

A product of Round Rock, Texas, Vaughn rushed for 642 yards and seven touchdowns in 10 games, while he caught 25 passes for 434 yards and another two scores. Vaughn also added kickoff-return duties to his repertoire late in the year, returning seven kickoffs for 145 yards (20.7-yard average). He was one of only three players in the nation during the 2020 season to tally at least 600 rushing yards and 400 receiving yards on the year, joining fellow running backs Travis Etienne (Clemson) and Najee Harris (Alabama).

Vaughn set the K-State freshman records for rushing yards, yards from scrimmage (1,076) and all-purpose yards (1,221). He also finished second in rushing touchdowns and third in receiving yards among freshmen, while he ranked fourth in school history in points scored by a freshman (54) and is the only non-kicker on the list.

The honor by the FWAA added to Vaughn’s accolades in 2020 as he was named the True Freshman of the Year by 247Sports, a Freshman All-American by&nbsp;The Athletic&nbsp;and an Honorable Mention All-American by Phil Stele. Vaughn was also named the Big 12 Offensive Freshman of the Year by the league’s coaches and was a Second Team All-Big 12 performer by both the coaches and the Associated Press. He was the first Wildcat true freshman in the Big 12 era (since 1996) to earn First or Second Team All-Big 12 honors on offense.

Kansas State opens the 2021 season on September 4 by taking on Stanford in the Allstate Kickoff Classic at AT&amp;T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Kansas City Chiefs forced the Cleveland Browns to punt in the waning minutes Sunday with star quarterback Patrick Mahomes out with a concussion. Then 35-year-old backup Chad Henne showed some moxie with a long third-down scramble and a fourth-down completion to Tyreek Hill with just over a minute left to give the Chiefs a first down and allowing them to run out the clock on a 22-17 victory in the divisional round of the playoffs. 

They advanced to their third straight AFC title game and will face the Buffalo Bills next Sunday.

Friday night basketball scores

JUNCTION CITY, Kan. - The Junction City High School basketball teams dropped a pair of Centennial League games Friday night at the hands of Washburn Rural 72-32 in girls play and 61-42 in the boys game.

In the girl's contest, the Lady Jays held tough with the #4 ranked team in Kansas class 6A for the first quarter, trailing 17-14 after one period. Then, the Lady Blues looked every bit of their ranking, out pacing JCHS 55-18 for the rest of the game.&nbsp;

The Lady Jays get back to action Saturday afternoon, taking on another top-ranked 6A opponent in Topeka High in Shenk Gym.&nbsp;

In the boy's game, Washburn Rural lead the entire way, as JCHS could never get in an offensive rhythm. Trailing by just five at halftime, Rural raced out to a 16 point lead at the end of the third period, and JCHS could never recover.&nbsp;

The boy's team will be back in action Thursday night at 7 p.m. from Dodge City, taking on the Red Demons in the Tournament of Champions.&nbsp;

Washburn Rural Sweeps JCHS 

TOPEKA, Kan. -&nbsp;Cheryl Gleason, Assistant Executive Director of the Kansas State High School Activities Association, has announced her decision to retire from the KSHSAA staff effective July 1, 2021.&nbsp; She has served in this position since joining the staff on November 1, 1989.&nbsp;During her tenure, Gleason has been responsible for the administration of bowling, golf, gymnastics, sportsmanship summits, swimming and diving, tennis, volleyball, the KSHSAA Hall of Fame and the Kansas Association for Youth (KAY) program.&nbsp;Gleason was also involved with general interpretation of KSHSAA rules for the member schools of the Association.

A native of Columbus, Kansas, Gleason earned her bachelor’s degree at Southwestern College prior to completing a master’s in physical education at Pittsburg State University.&nbsp;She became a physical education instructor and coach at Caldwell Elementary and High School.&nbsp;Gleason later became a teacher and coach at Osawatomie High School prior to joining the Association staff. She has served as a teacher, coach, and administrator in support of Kansas schools for a total of 45 years.&nbsp;

“Ms. Gleason has been a faithful and valued member of our team as her service and leadership resulted in a positive impact on each member of our office staff while providing significant experiences and growth opportunities for students across Kansas,” as noted by KSHSAA Executive Director Bill Faflick. “Her energy, creativity, and desire to connect students with learning opportunities have helped prepare students to be successful in life.”

During her 32-year career with the KSHSAA, Gleason grew the KAY program via conferences and leadership camps for which she administered hundreds of students each year. Her work with the KAY began as a counselor and staff member for camps the summer after graduating from high school – a full 18 years before joining the Association staff. Gleason’s efforts and enthusiasm helped with the founding of the KAY Alumni Network to offer support for members after high school graduation.

Tuesday high school basketball scores

MANHATTAN, Kansas –&nbsp;Kansas State will kick off the 2021 season on September 4 against Stanford at AT&amp;T Stadium in Arlington, Texas, as the two teams have been chosen for the 2021 Allstate Kickoff Classic, which annually hosts the premier season-opening contest in college football.

“We were honored when AT&amp;T Stadium contacted us about potentially playing in this prestigious game,” Athletics Director Gene Taylor said. “The idea of taking a home game away from Manhattan and Bill Snyder Family Stadium is a big decision, and as a staff and university, we feel that it is an opportunity that we could not pass up.

“Our student-athletes will have the opportunity to play in one of the world’s finest venues, and Kansas State University and our football program will be in the national spotlight. Our fans have always enjoyed traveling to Arlington, and of course the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex is one of our top markets for out of state graduates, and the 7,000-plus alums in the area will have the opportunity to support our team in person.”

The game will be the 12th contest to kick-off the college football season, the first as the Allstate Kickoff Classic and will mark the Wildcats’ second appearance at the venue.&nbsp;Past kickoff games in AT&amp;T Stadium have included some of the nation’s best programs such as Alabama, Michigan, Auburn, Wisconsin, LSU, Oklahoma, Oregon and Florida, among others.&nbsp; “We’re very excited to welcome a terrific new partner in Allstate as the premier sponsor of this iconic game that will kick off the 2021 college football season,” said Stephen Jones, Chief Operating Officer of the Dallas Cowboys. “Here in Texas and across the country, the return of college football each year is a very special time. Because of Allstate’s enthusiastic support and partnership, the Allstate Kickoff Classic will continue to be a yearly must-see event. And given all that has happened in 2020, there can be no question that in 2021 this game will have special significance as together we bring back the great fans, pageantry, history and traditions of college football as we’ve always known it.”

The Wildcats will be making their fourth appearance in the DFW area in non-conference games following Cotton Bowl appearances in 1997, 2001 and 2012.

“We are excited to be able to play a high-profile football game in one of our top recruiting markets,” said Richard B. Myers, president of Kansas State University. “K-State has nearly 15,000 alumni and friends in Texas, with half of those in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Our fans are familiar with the area and will, no doubt, turn out to support the Wildcats.”

With the season opener being moved to Arlington, the Wildcats will still have seven additional home games in Manhattan in 2021, including non-conference matchups with Southern Illinois (9/11) and Nevada (9/18), and five Big 12 home contests. The full schedule with dates and ticket information will be announced in the coming months. “Playing a quality opponent such as Stanford in one of the world’s top sporting venues is a chance for us to showcase our program to recruits all over the country,” Head Coach Chris Klieman said. “I know our players are excited for the challenge and the opportunity that it presents.”

And given all that has happened in 2020, there can be no question that in 2021 this game will have special significance as together we bring back the great fans, pageantry, history and traditions of college football as we’ve always known it.”The Wildcats will be making their fourth appearance in the DFW area in non-conference games following Cotton Bowl appearances in 1997, 2001 and 2012.“We are excited to be able to play a high-profile football game in one of our top recruiting markets,” said Richard B. Myers, president of Kansas State University. “K-State has nearly 15,000 alumni and friends in Texas, with half of those in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Our fans are familiar with the area and will, no doubt, turn out to support the Wildcats.”With the season opener being moved to Arlington, the Wildcats will still have seven additional home games in Manhattan in 2021, including non-conference matchups with Southern Illinois (9/11) and Nevada (9/18), and five Big 12 home contests. The full schedule with dates and ticket information will be announced in the coming months. “Playing a quality opponent such as Stanford in one of the world’s top sporting venues is a chance for us to showcase our program to recruits all over the country,” Head Coach Chris Klieman said. “I know our players are excited for the challenge and the opportunity that it presents.”2021 Non-Conference Schedule Sept. 4 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; vs. Stanford&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Arlington, Texas Sept. 11&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Southern Illinois&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Manhattan, Kansas Sept. 18&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Nevada&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Manhattan, Kansas– k-statesports.com –
