ISU coach Dan McCarney confirms Seneca Wallace will be the starting QB for the season opener against Northern Iowa at Jack Trice Stadium. Wallace beat out Gerrin Scott Cris Love and Dustin Ochs after winning the job in spring drills. He succeeds Sage Rosenfels who led ISU to a 9 3 season and first bowl win last year.
The schedule lists the Chicago Cubs at Florida Marlins and Atlanta Braves at Montreal Expos at 6 p.m. on FSC and TBS. The U S Open covers the men’s fourth rounds and women’s quarterfinals with events at 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. and 6 p.m. on USA. Detroit Tigers visit the Chicago White Sox at 6 45 p.m. on ACRG AM 1600.

Iowa kicker Nate Kaeding, a true sophomore and Iowa City West graduate, was named Big Ten special teams player of the week after his 15 point game in a 51-0 win over Kent State. He extended his consecutive field goal streak to 10 and tied the school record for points in a game.
Bud Smith, in his 11th career start, no hits San Diego in a 4-0 Cardinals win. He became the 16th rookie in modern history to throw a no hitter and the second to do it against San Diego this season. He fielded a comebacker for the final out, fisted the air, and tipped to Albert Pujols. Smith walked four and struck out seven.
Pete Sampras rediscovered his peak form at the U S Open defeating a dangerous former champion in a rare fourth round clash. The American showcased flawless tennis and a brilliant final point sequence to prevail and silence critics.
