Early game times set for MU's road games against Tennessee, Florida

Construction company improperly got minority status, KC auditors say

The decision — involving a company called TWS Technical Services LLC — potentially cost “legitimate” minority businesses millions of dollars in contracts, the study says. TWS was founded by William Session, a well-known Kansas City attorney. In 2008, the firm signed contracts worth almost $11 million to perform excavation work for the CenterPoint project, a multimillion-dollar rail and trucking port on the site of the old Richards-Gebaur air base.

Royals let early chances slip away in 6-3 loss to Indians

The potential consequences of the Royals’ still-sputtering attack came into harsh relief Wednesday for a second straight night in a 6-3 loss to the Cleveland Indians. If the club’s pitching and defense slips just a bit, as it did again at Progressive Field, then their impressive June surge suddenly resembles their ruinous May swoon.

Columbia — Missouri announced Monday that its Nov. 10 road game against Tennessee will be played at 11:21 a.m. and be televised on the SEC Network.

This came one day after the school announced that its road game against Florida this Saturday will begin at 11 a.m. and be shown on ESPN2.

Missouri, 4-4, 1-4 in the SEC, could have its hands full against Florida, 7-1, which fell from second to seventh in the BCS standings after a 17-9 loss to rival Georgia on Saturday.

Tennessee, 3-5, 0-5 in the SEC, has lost four straight games but has played South Carolina and Georgia - two teams that beat Missouri by a combined 42 points - close. Tennessee lost to Georgia 51-44 and South Carolina 38-35.
