Wildcat Creek Road

Can anyone tell me why it's taking so long for the road work on Wildcat Creek Road? I've worked at Alorica since Sept '07 and ever since around oct '07, there has been road construction going on and have to go past the airport and then turn right onto Wildcat Creek Road? I drive from Clay Center and take keats road, turn onto Scenic Drive. I used to turn onto Eureka Drive, but since the road construction, have to go past the airport to Wildcreek Creek Road. With the cost of gas, this is very aggravating to have to drive those extra miles. Somedays there aren't even any workers there. The road construction I believe is only a couple of miles. When is this to be completed?

Freeman to the NFL

How about a winnig season and maybe even a bowl victory first. Of course if RP goes JF will surely follow. Maybe then Coffman will get a fair look.

Football wins in 08

Someone asked me what games I think we will win this year...and this is it:

Our 1st 4 games we should win.

Texas Tech-Could go either way
@ Tex A&M-Could go either way
@ Colo-We should beat them
OK-Could go either way OK always loses to a BIG 12 team
@ KU-yes because they lost most of there defense
@ MU-yes because they lost 3 starting OL
NE-Could go either way
IS-We should beat them

We should win a guaranteed 6 games at least...and then all we have to do is take 1 or 2 other games in conference play...we are going to be good this year you will see soon my bloggers...and who cares that our 1st 4 games are easy...Louisville might be tuff but KU had a cupcake schedule last year and they benefited from it greatly. We should of won more games last year but we lost them because we had some loser players...but those guys are gone.

K-State's Yrureta all-Big 12

Staff reports

Kansas State's Viviana Yrureta was named to the All-Big 12 first team in an announcement by the league office on Monday afternoon. This is the first career athletic citation for Yrureta.

The product of Puerto Ordaz, Venezuela finished the season as K-State's top singles player with a 17-15 overall record. Yrureta tallied an 11-10 record at the number one position in the K-State lineup and a 5-6 mark in Big 12 action.

Yrureta helped the Wildcats to the quarterfinals of the 2008 Big 12 Women's Tennis Championships for the first time since the 2006 season, as she defeated Imke Reimers of Nebraska in three sets to secure the match. Yrureta displayed a high degree of endurance throughout the season, as she held a 10-3 record in three-set matches.

The honor bestowed upon Yrureta is the first for a Wildcat since the 2006 season. Earlier this season, Yrureta garnered her second career Academic All-Big 12 first team honor.
