Flooding postpones NASCAR dirt race at Bristol — NA-
SCAR has postponed its Cup Series dirt race at Bristol until 4
p.m. Monday, citing overnight heavy rainfall and local flood
warnings, safety concerns and a menacing Sunday forecast at
Bristol Motor Speedway. The historic Food City Dirt Race, an
event that will mark the first time NASCAR’s Cup Series races
on dirt in 51 years, was originally scheduled for 3:30 p.m. on
FOX. The race will be delayed a day and and is scheduled to
air on FOX, PRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio. The Truck
Series race, the Pinty’s Truck Race on Dirt, will now take place
before the Cup race on Monday at 12 p.m. That race will be
broadcast on FS1, MRN and SiriusXM NASCAR Radio. Scat-
tered showers continued around the track Sunday afternoon.
Images shared on social media Sunday morning showed sig-
nificant rainfall around the half-mile speedway in Bristol,
Tennessee.

Oregon State announcer attacked, left ‘a little sore’
but goes to work — Mike Parker was feeling a little sore
Sunday morning, but not from overcelebrating Oregon State’s
65-58 win over Loyola of Chicago on Saturday. The Beavers’
veteran play-by-play radio voice said he was involved in an un-
settling incident a few hours before Saturday’s game that left
him with a torn shirt and abrasions to his elbow. Parker, who
has been in Indianapolis for more than a week during Oregon
State’s NCAA Tournament run, loves walking the city. On a
walk Saturday, a man approached Parker and said, “I need to
talk to you. … I need to know what’s in your bag.” The man
continued to press. Eventually, Parker told him, “It’s none of
your business, but it’s my work stuff,” then continued to walk.
The man then asked, “Do you have a bomb in that bag?” The
man ran after Parker and tackled him. There were many peo-
ple in the area, including Indianapolis police officers who
were riding the area on bicycles. They came to Parker’s aid
and talked to him. Parker told the officer he did not want to
press charges. He did not know what happened to the man
from there. “I’m a little sore from the fall, but I’m fine. I had no
issues during the game,” Parker said.
Overseas Tokyo ticket holders may not get full refunds
— Many fans living outside Japan who bought Tokyo Olym-
pic tickets from brokers — so-called Authorized Ticket Re-
sellers — will not get full refunds. Organizers and the Japa-
nese government decided to bar most fans from abroad be-
cause of the COVID-19 pandemic. Tokyo organizers have said
they would refund the face value of the tickets but are not re-
sponsible for other added charges.

Oregon State has held Tennessee,
Oklahoma State with potential No.
1 overall NBA draft pick Cade Cun-
ningham, and Loyola Chicago to
61 points per game on 31% shoot-
ing, including 23% (18 of 78) from
3-point range. They also were suc-
cessful throwing out different looks,
from man to a 1-3-1 zone defense,
in Saturday’s win against the Ram-
blers.
Tinkle has pointed to the imple-
mentation of a drill as a catalyst for
defensive improvement.
“It’s a 4-on-4 drill, and we rotate
and basically what you do is you can’t
allow the offensive player to pene-
trate,” junior Warith Alatishe said.
“You have to get in your gaps and
help out your teammates. So I think
over time, just continuously doing
that drill has gotten our chemistry
up.
“We know that if we get beat, our
teammate has our back.”

Oregon and USC have been
a big part of the Pac-12’s un-
expected success in the Circle
City.
Picked to be the worst
among the major confer-
ences, the big league out West
opened the NCAA Tourna-
ment with nine straight wins
and got four teams through to
the Sweet 16.
Oregon State and UCLA al-
ready advanced, so the show-
down between the Ducks and
Trojans meant a Pac-12 trio in
the Elite Eight.
Oregon was in a familiar po-
sition, running this deep into
March for the fourth time in
five NCAA Tournaments. USC
had to reach back to the 2006-
07 team with Nick Young and
Taj Gibson for its last Sweet 16
ride.
The Trojans won the teams’
lone regular-season meeting
72-58 by getting off to a fast
start.
They did the same in
the rematch by slowing the
fast-moving Ducks.
Normally free flowing on of-
fense, Oregon had a hard time

Offensively, USC looked
more like the Ducks than they
did, pouring in 3s and getting
shots at the rim, using a 17-2

led 41-26 at halftime.
USC stretched the lead to

utes of the second half before

game that he would change

Double-digit history
Add Oregon State to the relatively short list of double-digit seeds that have reached
a regional final in the NCAA Tournament.
The Beavers became the 18th team seeded 10th or lower to reach the Elite Eight
since the field expanded to 64 teams in 1985 when they beat Loyola Chicago 65-58 on
Saturday. Coach Wayne Tinkle’s team is the second No. 12 seed to make a regional fi-
nal, joining Missouri in 2002. Those Tigers ended up losing to No. 2 seed Oklahoma.
“It’s an amazing feeling to be just part of the success, really,” Oregon State star Ethan
Thompson said. “Beaver Nation has waited a long time. And when coach Tinkle and
the rest of the coaching staff got here, this was the goal in mind to turn it into suc-
cessful basketball. And we’re here now. So it’s just been a great feeling and extremely
blessed to be a part of it.”
No team seeded worse than 12th has made the Elite Eight, but No. 15 seed Oral
Roberts made a strong bid for history later Saturday. The Golden Eagles led No. 3 seed
Arkansas by double digits in the second half, but the Razorbacks rallied to win 72-70.

Houston has held three tour-

Syracuse finishing with 46 points, its

Now the Cougars are preparing to
