The Associated Press
DUBAI, United Arab
Emirates — A U.S. intel-
ligence assessment con-
cludes that Iran has received
advanced North Korean
missiles capable of target-
ing Western European capi-
tals and giving the Islamic
Republic’s arsenal a signifi-
cantly farther reach than pre-
viously disclosed.
The suspected ship-
ment — mentioned among
the flood of classified State
Department memos obtained
by WikiLeaks — could also
give Iran an important boost
toward joining the powerful
group of nations with inter-
continental ballistic mis-
siles, defense experts said
Monday.
The U.S. suspicions carry
still another jolt: reinforcing
international fears about the
possibility of closer nucle-
ar cooperation in the future
between Iran and North
Korean engineers, who have
already staged atomic tests.
U.S. officials presented
the claim in a meeting with
top Russian security offi-
cials in late 2009 but did not
offer conclusive evidence of
the transfer of at least 19
so-called BM-25 missiles,
according to the confidential
Feb. 24 memo posted by the
WikiLeaks website, which
specializes in disclosing con-
fidential documents.
It also noted that “Russia
does not think the BM-25
exists” and questioned why
there have been no Iranian
tests of the missile, believed
to be based on a Russian
design that could be fitted
with nuclear warheads.
Still, the U.S.-Russia
meeting found ample com-
mon ground over concerns
that North Korea appears to
be actively engaged with Iran
in exporting weapons systems
and possible nuclear exper-
tise. A U.N. report accus-
ing North Korea of exporting
banned nuclear and missile
technology to Iran, Syria and
Myanmar was sent to the
Security Council earlier this
month.
“This just confirms a lot of
the rumors and reports about
the capabilities of the North
Koreans and gives more
credence to those who sup-
port a defense shield against
Iran,” said Theodore Karasik,
a regional security expert at
the Institute for Near East
and Gulf Military Analysis
in Dubai.

For The Record

records show
over missing Mich. boys
By CoreY WiLLiAMs
the Associated Press
MORENCI, Mich. — determined,”’ Morenci Fire
When his wife filed for divorce
in September, the father of
three Michigan boys who are
now missing picked two of
them up from school early and
drove out of state.
On Sept. 13, John Skelton
packed his two oldest sons in
the family van and drove to
nearby Ohio — only to return
and then take off with them
again to Florida.
It was the start of a nasty
custody battle and possible
precursor to all three boys’
disappearance last week before
their dad’s suicide attempt.
Police, the FBI and vol-
unteers have been scouring
woods, fields and roadsides
around the small south-
ern Michigan community of
Morenci and south across the
Ohio state line over the past
few days. The boys, 9-year-old
Andrew, 7-year-old Alexander
and 5-year-old Tanner have not
been seen since Thanksgiving
Day, when they were playing
in their father’s backyard.
Authorities have said their
father, John Skelton, lied to
police when he told them from
his hospital bed that he gave
the boys to an acquaintance to
return to their mother. Skelton
has been hospitalized since
Friday for injuries suffered in
the suicide attempt and “men-
tal issues,” Morenci Police
Chief Larry Weeks said. He
has not been ruled out as a
suspect, Weeks said.
Search efforts resumed this
custody fight Gunman
morning.
“I think the best way to
describe the searches is ‘just
Chief Chad Schisler said.
Searchers and residents
of Morenci, about 75 miles
southwest of Detroit, continue
to hope for a positive ending,
Schisler added.
Tanya Skelton reported
the boys missing Friday. An
Amber Alert was issued that
night after John Skelton told
police he had tried to hang
himself and didn’t want the
boys at home when he com-
mitted suicide.
Lenawee County Circuit
Judge Margaret Noe told The
Associated Press that Tanya
Skelton received exclusive
custody after John Skelton
returned from Florida with the
boys, but the couple subse-
quently negotiated an agree-
ment that allowed visitation.
“The agreement was with-
out my intervention,” Noe
said. “It is not unusual for
judges to encourage parents to
engage in agreements between
themselves relative to visita-
tion because they best know
the circumstances.”
She said the brothers’ disap-
pearance was “sad and unfor-
tunate” and declined further
comment.
After John Skelton returned
the boys from Florida he had been
seeing them “with no issues,”
said Kathye Herrera, who identi-
fied herself as a spokeswoman
for Tanya Skelton.
Tanya Skelton said in
a motion filed the same day
as the divorce complaint that
John Skelton’s work as a truck
driver kept him “on the road
for weeks at a time.” When he
is home it’s for a maximum of
”two to three days at a time,“
she claimed.
John Skelton filed a motion
for custody on Sept. 27, saying
his wife was a registered sex
offender.
Tanya Skelton, 44, pleaded
guilty to fourth-degree crimi-
nal sexual conduct in 1998,
according to court records. Her
misdemeanor plea was part of
a plea bargain after she was
accused of having sex with
a 14-year-old boy who had
worked for her and her former
husband at rental properties in
Morenci. Her divorce attorney,
David McFarland, declined to
comment.
Herrera said early Monday
that Tanya Skelton’s convic-
tion was not relevant to the chil-
dren’s disappearance. She did
not return a call later Monday
after the AP obtained records
detailing the complaint.
Sunday night, following
a church vigil for the boy’s
safe return, Herrera had said
John Skelton hadn’t worked in
a while. Tanya Skelton, who
described herself in court doc-
uments as an at-home mother,
attends a local college or com-
munity college, Herrera said.
The couple married in 2002
and filed for bankruptcy in
2003. The bankruptcy case was
cleared later that year. Tanya
Skelton asked for alimony and
child support when she filed
for divorce.
Both had earlier marriages
that ended in divorce.

was watching a movie when
the gunman shot the projector,
then fired a second round. He
had two handguns and refused
to let anyone leave, Campbell
said. He demanded everyone
dump their cell phones in the
center of the room. When the
gunman’s own cell phone
rang, the boy snapped it in
half, Campbell said.
He wasn’t interested in
talking with the teacher and
told her to be quiet, Campbell
said. But the gunman chatted
with his fellow students, who
tried to keep him talking about
how he hunted and about fish-
ing. Students even got the
gunman to laugh, Campbell
said.
The gunman refused to
communicate with officials
during the standoff, Skorik
said, but allowed the teacher,
Burd, to speak with them by
phone.
“The teacher was nothing
short of heroic,” Skorik said.
“I think she kept a very cool
head. She was able to keep the
suspect as calm as possible. I
heard that she took the respon-
sibility of trying to assure the
other students they were going
to be OK. We really give
that teacher a lot of credit for
being able to keep a cool head
under a stressful situation.”
Choral teacher Bonita
Weydt said she was talking
with a teacher in another class-
room at the end of the day
when Principal Corry Lambie
came in.
“I said, ‘Corry, what’s
going on?’ and he said, ‘Get
out of the building,”’ Weydt
said.

Guards shown watching inmate attack
By reBeCCA Boone
the Associated Press
BOISE, Idaho — The sur-
veillance video from the over-
head cameras shows Hanni
Elabed being beaten by a fel-
low inmate in an Idaho prison,
managing to bang on a prison
guard station window, pleading
for help. Behind the glass, cor-
rectional officers look on, but
no one intervenes when Elabed
is knocked unconscious.
No one steps into the cell-
block when the attacker sits
down to rest, and no one stops
him when he resumes the beat-
ing.
Videos of the attack obtained
by The Associated Press show
officers watching the beating
for several minutes. The foot-
age is a key piece of evidence
for critics who claim the pri-
vately run Idaho Correctional
Center uses inmate-on-inmate
violence to force prisoners to
snitch on their cellmates or
risk being moved to extremely
violent units.
Lawsuits from inmates con-
tend the company that runs
the prison, the Corrections
Corporation of America,
denies prisoners medical treat-
ment as a way of covering up
the assaults. They have dubbed
the Idaho lockup “gladiator
school” because it is so vio-
lent.
The AP initially sought a
copy of the videos from state
court, but Idaho 4th District
Judge Patrick Owen denied
that request. The AP decided
to publish the videos after a
person familiar with the case
verified their authenticity.
The videos show at least
three guards watching as
Elabed was stomped on a
dozen times. At no time dur-
ing the recorded sequence did
anyone try to pull away James
Haver, a short, slight man.
About two minutes after
Haver stopped the beating
of his own accord, the metal
cellblock door was unlocked.
Haver was handcuffed and
Elabed was examined for signs
of life. He bled inside his skull
and would spend three days in
a coma.
CCA, the nation’s largest
private prison company, said it
was “highly disappointed and
deeply concerned” over AP’s
decision to release the videos.
“Public release of the video
poses an unnecessary security
risk to our staff, the inmates
entrusted to our care, and
ultimately to the public,” the
prison company said in a state-
ment.
Before the Idaho attack,
Elabed tried to get help from
prison staffers, telling them
that he had been threatened
and giving them details about
drug trafficking between
inmates and staffers that he
had witnessed, according to his
lawsuit. He was put in solitary
confinement for his protection
but was later returned to the
same unit with the inmates he
snitched on, his lawsuit said.
He was on the cellblock only
six minutes before he was
attacked.

The YWCA is gearing up for
their 2010 Holiday Home Tour.
This year the tour will feature five
homes and three businesses. Enjoy
visiting decorated homes throughout
Van Wert County with the YWCA
from 6-9 p.m. on Friday and 11 .am
to 3 p.m. Saturday. Tickets are on
sale now at the YWCA for $15 per
person.
This year’s participants include:
Jeremy & Kim Ebel, 731 N.
Washington St.:
The Ebel home is a traditional
two story single family home. The
house is 1,536 square feet and fea-
tures 1 1/2 and three bedrooms.
The home has a very comfort-
able feel. There is not a specific
style to the home. The family deco-
rates and furnishes with things that
are pleasing to the eye and most
importantly, kid friendly. Many of
their home furnishings are family
heirlooms. They enjoy earth tones
and have a continuous color scheme
throughout the main living area.
The kid’s rooms are fun and reflect
their personality and interests. When
decorating their home, they like
to find a piece of furniture, rug or
wall hanging that they use as palette
and pull other pieces in to accent it.
They make sure that the colors and
style flow from room to room.
The Ebel home features an open
stairway in the foyer, original wood-
work throughout and 9 1/2-foot ceil-
ings on the main floor.
The living room is where all the
Christmas action takes place. They
have a beautifully decorated 9-foot
tree and a fireplace. This is where
Santa enters the house and leaves
the children’s gifts. The Christmas
theme this year is family. The
Ebel’s like their home to be invit-
ing, comfortable and fun for their
kids. There are two trees featured in
the home, a 9-foot and 7-foot tree.
Each of the Ebel children have their
own trees decorated to their tastes
(with mom’s approval). They also
have a memory tree with ornaments
given to them when the children
were born and some the children
have made along the way. While
visiting this home you will take
in the Christmas smells, like pine
and cinnamon, when you enter the
house. Christmas is all about the
kids and the Ebels try to decorate in
a manner that is classic, but still fun
enough for my kids to love.
The most special Christmas fea-
ture of the house is not the prettiest
or most elaborate decoration, but it
holds the most sentimental value,
the Snowman tree. Every year, each
family member picks out a new
snowman to add. It is a big deal to
the kids and the family is glad that
we have made it a tradition. When
they decorate the tree the kids get to
put their special ornaments on and
try to remember how old they were
when they bought it.

Cliff Bell. The home is 1344 sq ft
sits on a 1/2-acre lot. There are 3
bedrooms, 1 1/2 baths
The home is an eclectic mix
of styles. Each room has a theme
that coincides with the next. The
Kitson’s inspiration for decorating
comes usually from one piece and
they work from there, whether it
be a painting or an ornament or a
decoration.
Cliff Bell, home builder, was a
carpenter and his love of different
woods is shown through out the
home. It can be seen n the main liv-
ing room, the kitchen and through-
out the home through the handmade
cabinetry and built-ins.
The families favorite room is
their living room, which is also
home to their main holiday tree.
Although this room is their favorite,
each room has something special or
unique in it.
There is also a different theme in
each part of the house, but they all
do carry one connecting factor —
the family’s love for reindeer. Each
room and each tree has reindeer
incorporated in one way or anther.
The main thing that the family
would like you to keep in mind as
you tour their home is that this is
their first home they have owned

South:
Construction began in 2005 on
the Niswonger Performing Arts
Center. The center was opened to
the public officially on March 16,
2007.
The exterior of the building is a
brick with a slate roof. The design
incorporates aspects from several
historical buildings of Van Wert
such as Lincoln Jr. High, Marsh
Foundation buildings and the
Brumback Library.
The center incorporates many
different parts unique pieces. The
Music Hall has 8,278 square feet.
The stage is 3,722 square feet. The
Lecture Hall covers 4,118 square
feet. The Grand Lobby is 3,200
square feet and the Upper Lobby
covers 1,660 square feet. The bay
window is 33 feet, 4 inches tall. The
fly loft on the stage is 59 feet high.
As you enter the center you will
notice the inside walls are covered
with anigre wood which hails from
the Conga Africa. One tree pro-
vided the veneer for the entire build-
ing. The floors of the lobbies are
made from 105,000 pounds granite
imported from India.
The Van Wert Area Performing

Marsh Foundation Clymer
Hall & Greenhouse:
Clymer Hall was built in 1923
by local contractors and is part of
the Marsh Foundation. The exte-
rior encompasses a European style.
This 11,760 square foot hall houses
eight bathrooms and 13 bedrooms.
Although the exterior shows the
history of the building the interior is
modern and new.
Clymer Hall was completely ren-
ovated in 2009. When the home was
finished and redecorated, empha-
sis was put on the youth that The
Marsh Foundation serves. Although
Clymer Hall is a temporary home
for the girls who stay here, every
effort is made to make them feel at
home and part of a family.
Special features of this large
three-story hall include hardwood
floors a wooden staircase. During
the holiday season the main area
fills as the girls gather. There is a
large 14-person dining room table
in the hall. This is where the girls
gather to eat their dinners, do home-
work and play games. It truly is the
heavier power demand.
The shutdowns stem from
a slow economy, declining

lations that could require

New alignment to bring
political deals, conflict
By JIM KUHNHENN
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — In the
first test of Washington’s new
political alignment, President
Barack Obama will meet with
Republican leaders today with
the nation’s tax rates and a
nuclear arms treaty in doubt.
Neither side expects final
deals from an hour-long
encounter, but the sparring
could have major consequenc-
es, both short- and long-term.
The expiring Bush-era tax
cuts are the most pressing
matter. Without quick action,
taxpayers face sharp increases
next year as the rates return to
levels set during the Clinton
administration. Discussions
are expected to center on a
temporary extension that
would put off the partisan
clash over the biggest dis-
agreement — whether to per-
manently extend current rates
to all or to raise them for
higher-income taxpayers.
The private, late-morn-
ing White House meeting
with top lawmakers from
both parties is fraught with
potential and hazards, both
for the immediate work left
before Congress adjourns this
year and for the relationship
between Obama and congres-
sional Republicans over the
next two years.
Republicans caught a wave

FBI nets another by tweaking script
By MATT APUZZO
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Time
and again, the FBI offered
a way out. And each time,
officials said, the 19-year-
old college dropout persisted.
He wanted to kill people, he
said. Lots of people. He just
needed help to do it.
At a hotel in downtown
Portland, Ore., in July, two
undercover FBI agents lis-
tened as Mohamed Mohamud
explained his dream of det-
onating a car bomb during
the city’s Christmas celebra-
tion. They offered to help, if
Mohamud was sure he want-
ed to go through with it.
“You always have a
choice,” one of the agents
said, according to court docu-
ments. “You understand?
With us, you always have a
choice.”
It was not an offhand
remark. It was part of a care-
fully scripted routine the FBI
has been perfecting since
the September 2001 terror-
ist attacks. Sting operations,
choreographed by FBI and
Justice Department officials
in Washington, have included
plots against Dallas skyscrap-
ers, Washington subways, a
Chicago nightclub and New
York’s John F. Kennedy
International Airport.
The plots have all been
fictional. The intent, the FBI
says, has been real. And the
government has a string of
convictions to back that up,
a track record that has made
WikiLeaks to bring ‘big chill’
By KIMBERLY DOZIER
and ANNE GEARAN
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — After
the latest WikiLeaks revela-
tions, the government is set-
ting in motion a new infor-
mation “big chill,” reversing
almost a decade of post-Sept.
11 efforts to nudge U.S. offi-
cials into sharing sensitive
documents.
The Pentagon has detailed
new security safeguards,
including restraints on small
computer flash drives, to
make it harder for any one
person to copy and reveal
so many secrets. The clamp-
down parallels efforts at other
agencies.
For the military it repre-
sents a throttling back of ini-
tiatives to let other agencies
see more of the vast trove of
data the Pentagon collects.
The new attitude may also
make intelligence information
less widely available to low-
level soldiers serving at “the
tip of the spear” in Iraq and
Afghanistan.
The tightening of sensi-
tive information comes as
the Obama administration
wrested control of the House
from the Democrats. They
also expanded their minority
in the Senate.
The new lineup pres-
ents a dramatically different
dynamic for Obama. Though
he pledged to bridge partisan
divides during his presidential
campaign, he ended up pass-
ing the big initiatives of his
first two years with virtually
no Republican support.
“My hope is that tomor-
row’s meeting will mark a
first step toward a new and
productive working relation-
ship,” Obama said Monday,
“because we now have a
shared responsibility to deliv-
er for the American people on
the issues that define not only
these times but our future.”
That comment came as he
announced a two-year pay
freeze for civilian govern-
ment workers, a step hailed
by Republicans and sharp-
ly criticized by Democratic
allies such as the AFL-CIO.
The most immediate chal-
lenges for Congress’ post-
election lame duck session
are considering whether
Congress will extend the tax
rates and whether the Senate
will ratify a treaty to reduce
nuclear weapons arsenals in
the U.S. and Russia.
Before adjourning, Demo-
crats also want Congress to
repeal the military’s “don’t ask,
don’t tell” policy for gay ser-
vice members and to pass the
undercover stings one of the
government’s go-to strategies
in terrorism cases.
But the tactic is not with-
out its critics. Each arrest has
been followed by allegations
of entrapment and claims that
the government is enticing
Muslims to become terrorists,
selling them phony explo-
sives, then arresting them.
No terrorism case since
9/11 has been thrown out
because of entrapment. And
the tactic passed its latest
court test last month when
a New York jury convicted
four men of trying to blow up
synagogues. Jurors rejected
the argument that the FBI
enticed the men into a plot
they never would have come
up with otherwise.
“When the government
supplies a fake bomb and
then thwarts the plot, this is
insanity. This is grandstand-
ing,” Susanne Brody, one
of the defense attorneys in
that case, said Monday when
asked about the FBI’s use of
undercover stings.
Brody said the tac-
tic requires extraordinary
amounts of time and money
and can ensnare hapless peo-
ple, not hardened terrorists.
“The people they repeat-
edly come up with contin-
ue to be people who have
no ability to do something
on their own,” said Samuel

attorney in the New York
case who said he’s skeptical

Monday branded the leak of
more than a quarter-million
diplomatic memos an attack
on the United States and
raised the prospect of criminal
prosecution against the online
clearinghouse WikiLeaks.
Secretary of State Hillary
Rodham Clinton said
WikiLeaks acted illegally in
posting the material. Speaking
in between calls to foreign
capitals as she made amends
for the posting of the unvar-
nished memos, Clinton said
the administration was tak-
ing “aggressive steps to hold
responsible those who stole
this information.”
Attorney General Eric
Holder said the govern-
ment was mounting a crimi-
nal investigation. The latest
disclosures, involving clas-
sified and sensitive State
Department documents, jeop-
ardized the security of the
nation, its diplomats, intelli-
gence assets and relationships
with foreign governments,
Holder said.

By putting the emphasis on
taxes and the START treaty,
Obama has cast the session as
one focused on economic and
national security issues.
Republicans want all the
2001 and 2003 tax cuts to be
extended permanently. Obama
and Democratic leaders in
Congress want to extend them
only for individual taxpayers
making less than $200,000
and couples making less than
$250,000
Rep. Eric Cantor of
Virginia, who will become
the House majority leader in
January, accused the presi-
dent of engaging in “class
warfare.” “This country is
about making sure everyone
has a fair shot,” he said in an
interview.
Obama and his top aides
have insisted that he won’t
approve an extension of upper
income rates that is perma-
nent, a potential opening for a
short-term extension.
Democrats are themselves
divided on the tax rate ques-
tion, with some arguing no
taxes should be allowed to
increase during a weak eco-
nomic recovery. At the same
time, a number of liberal mil-
lionaires have weighed into the
debate, arguing they shouldn’t
benefit from a continuation of
their current rates.
have to offer.”
In the Oregon case, even
the government’s own doc-
uments paint Mohamud as
something of a piddling ter-
rorist: He tried to connect
with a jihadist in Pakistan,
but kept mistyping the e-mail
address. He claimed that,
because he had been a rap-
per, he could get an AK-47
machine gun.
And while his online writ-
ing suggested exercise rou-
tines for would-be terrorists
— jump rope, run in the sand,
jog before dawn so you’re
not afraid of the dark — he
confided to undercover FBI
agents that he didn’t know
how to become a terrorist and
needed to be trained.
Counterterrorism officials
don’t buy the argument that
a wannabe terrorist is less of
a concern. They say the only
difference between someone
like Mohamud and someone
like Faisal Shahzad, who
admitted trying to set off a
bomb in Times Square this
spring, is that the FBI got to
Mohamud before he could be
trained to pull off an actual
attack.
After all, Mohamud also
made it clear he wanted to
carry out an attack and reject-
ed every opportunity to change
his mind, officials said.
“He was told that children
— children — were poten-
tially going to be harmed,”
Attorney General Eric Holder
said Monday, rejecting
the notion that FBI agents
entrapped Mohamud.
said the State Department and
other agencies are tighten-
ing information-sharing and
restricting access between the
Army and nonmilitary agen-
cies. The official spoke on
condition of anonymity to
discuss the sharing of classi-
fied information.
Access to much of that
diplomatic material had been
loosened after the Sept. 11
attacks. The success of the
al-Qaida plot was blamed in
part on evidence that the U.S.
intelligence community had
adequate information on the
impending attacks but failed
to connect the dots because it
did not share its intelligence.
As part of the 9/11
Commission reforms, the
position of director for nation-
al intelligence was created to
serve as nexus and arbiter
for the 16-agency intelligence
community and to ensure
stovepiping was avoided.
Various government agencies
were given access to terminals
in each other’s data systems.
In the case of the Pentagon
and State Department, it
brought wholesale sharing of
information on the same com-
puter system.

Maybe it is a simple con-
cept in any sport.
Team.
That is the reason that
second-year Shadyside head
football coach Mark Holenka
gives for his team being in the
Division VI state champion-
ship game versus unbeaten
St. John’s Friday at Canton’s
Fawcett Stadium.
“We have 14 seniors on
the team and they weren’t
outstanding players as juniors.
They just meshed this off-
season,” Holenka, who enters
the contest with an 18-7
mark, began. “These kids just
worked hard and developed
great chemistry. We won our
first game against Beallsville
but we weren’t sure how good
they were. We beat Monroe
Central 12-0 and that started
to get our kids to believe in
themselves. Then when we
beat Harrison Central, a solid
Division III team, the kids
knew that they could have a
great season.”
Holenka’s Tigers — win-
ners of the lower-division Ohio
Valley Athletic Conference, a
far-flung league that does not
have a round-robin format —
have gotten off quickly in
most of their games, a posi-
tive for his team.
“We’ve gotten off to quick
starts most of the year. What
that did for us is help our
kids realize they could hang
with their opponents, no
matter who they were,” he
explained. “You’re going to
see us in a multiple offense
but we have become more
run-oriented. We’ve always
liked to be 60/40 run/pass mix
but that isn’t how this season
has gone on. (Senior running
back) Brendon (Sedinger) has
really become a nice runner.
He is more a hard-nosed ball-
carrier who has worked hard
on his speed to be more elu-
sive but he isn’t a speed back.
Ellis (Brown) was a wide
receiver last year who moved
back to his natural quarter-
back spot; we’d like to see
him with a higher completion
percentage but he is a bet-
ter quarterback than the stats
might indicate. He is effective
at the position. Unfortunately,
we don’t have our best receiv-
er and defensive back —
Scotty Liberatore — who first
hurt his shoulder and then
tore an ACL when he came
back.

to an easy 85-61 victory over
Division II Emporia State on

out to a 46-27 halftime lead.
The Wildcats (6-1) cruised
the rest of the way.

3-pointers.

View 45
WACO, Texas — LaceDarius
Dunn had 20 points in his second
game back for Baylor while fresh-
man Perry Jones had 16 points
and 13 rebounds and the Bears
beat Prairie View.
Dunn hit a 3-pointer on the first
shot of the game and Baylor (5-0)
never trailed.
Baylor improved to 38-0 against
Southwestern Athletic Conference
teams, 3-0 this season. The Bears
have won 16 of those games by at
least 30 points.
Trant Simpson had 10 points
and was the only player in dou-

Minnesota. But the Gophers
scored just two points during a
7-minute span of the second half
and couldn’t complete a furious
rally in the final 5 minutes.
Mbakwe’s putback cut
Virginia’s lead to 73-67 with 2 min-
utes to play, but Scott responded
with a 3-point play to put the game
out of reach.
