RACINE — “Success
is not ﬁnal, failure is not
fatal; it is the courage to
continue that counts.”
Southern High School
Class of 2018 Salutatorian Hannah Evans
quoted those words from
Winston Churchill on
Saturday evening as she
addressed her fellow
graduates.
“Have the courage to
continue working toward
your goals, always putting your best foot
forward and trying your
hardest,” said Evans,
thanking those who challenged her to have the
courage to achieve her
goals.
“You should always
do your absolute best
and never stop trying to
reach your goals. There
may be times when your
goal seems to be unattainable, and you may
fall short, but it doesn’t
mean you shouldn’t be
proud of yourself as long

and Sydney Cleland prepare to enter the gymnasium for Saturday evening’s commencement
ceremony.

as you know you did
your best,” said Evans,
asking everyone to take
a moment to think about
their greatest accomplishment.
“Awards and recognitions will not carry
you through the rest of
your life, but the sense
of dedication and the
work ethic that you built
while trying to earn
your awards will beneﬁt
you for your entire life,”

added Evans.
Valedictorian Sydney
Cleland spoke of success
and what it means to be
successful.
“Almost every successful person begins with
two beliefs: the future
can be better than the
present, and I have the
power to make it so,”
said Cleland.
“As we enter a new
chapter in our lives, we
have to keep in mind we

will never be perfect the
ﬁrst time we do something,” said Cleland.
While obstacles may
come along the way,
Cleland noted that it is
important to remember
the opinions of others do
not matter.
“Do not let others
opinions inﬂuence the
way you feel about yourself. Their opinion will

Cavs beat Celtics
to reach NBA
Finals, 87-79
BOSTON (AP) — With another Game 7 victory
at stake, LeBron James would not sit out.
He would not say goodbye to Cleveland again —
not yet, anyway.
And he would not be denied an eighth straight
trip to the NBA Finals.
The four-time league MVP scored 35 points
with 15 rebounds and nine assists on Sunday
night, leading the Cleveland Cavaliers to an 87-79
win over the Celtics and eliminating Boston from
the Eastern Conference ﬁnals in the decisive seventh game.
“He’s had a lot of gaudy games,” Cavaliers coach
Tyronn Lue said. “But I just think Game 7, in Boston, all the circumstances that surround Boston,
the history … to come here in a hostile environment: (it’s) right there.”
In the ﬁrst close game, the lowest-scoring and
the ﬁrst victory for a road team in the series,
James played all 48 minutes, scoring 12 of his
points in the fourth quarter for his sixth straight
Game 7 win. Lue used his timeouts to get his star
an extra few minutes of rest when he could, and
James didn’t warm up at halftime to conserve his
energy.
“It was asked of me tonight to play the whole
game,” he said. “And I just tried to ﬁgure out how
I can get through it.”
James played all 82 regular-season games for the
ﬁrst time in his career and is already at 100 for
the year with at least four more to come. He tired
late in Game 5, when the Celtics won their 10th
straight at home this postseason.
Celtics coach Brad Stevens said the plan was to
wear James out.
Nice try.
“Our goal going into the series was to make him
exert as much energy as humanly possible and try
to be as good as we can on everybody else,” Stevens said. “For the most part, I thought we were
pretty good at that … but he still scored 35. It’s a
joke.”
For James, a potential free agent, the victory
postponed a decision about his future until next
month.
Now, the only question is who the Cavaliers
will play for a chance at their second title in three
years: The Rockets host Game 7 of the Western
Conference ﬁnals against Golden State on Monday
night, and the winner will host the opener of the
NBA Finals on Thursday.
The Cavaliers are expected to be underdogs
against either.
“We have an opportunity to play for a championship,” James said. “It doesn’t matter what the
story line is going to be, it doesn’t matter if we’re
picked to win or not. I’m the wrong guy to ask. I
just like to compete.”
Jayson Tatum scored 24 points, Al Horford had
17 and Marcus Morris added 14 points with 12
rebounds for the Celtics, who were looking to
return to the NBA Finals for the ﬁrst time since
2010.
Tatum had a dunk over James with 6:41 left —
staring down the Cavaliers star and bumping him
with his chest — then followed it with a 3-pointer
that gave the Celtics a 72-71 lead. But that would
be Boston’s last basket for more than ﬁve minutes
while Cleveland went on a 15-2 run to put the
game away.

James embraced Horford and Tatum after the
buzzer, then the Cavaliers donned celebratory
hats and T-shirts before
shufﬂing off the court
to receive the Eastern
Conference championship
trophy.
It’s not the one they
want.
James has been in the
ﬁnals every year since
2011 — four with Miami,
and now four straight
with Cleveland.
This might be his weakest supporting cast.
He had to do it without
Kevin Love — Cleveland’s
only other all-star — who
sustained a concussion in
Game 6 and was replaced
in the lineup by Jeff
Green. Making his ﬁrst
start since the ﬁrst-round
opener against Indiana,
Green scored 19 points
and added eight rebounds
— the star of James’ starless supporting cast.

“We said we want to do

“Kevin wanted to play, to
be in a Game 7 situation
like this in the Eastern

an All-Star, being our
second-best player, and

season, and Kyrie Irving

CONCORD, N.C.
(AP) — Joe Gibbs has
coached Super Bowl
champions.
He’s learned that to
reach that level, it takes
a group of guys who are
“special” on game day —
just like Kyle Busch, the
top driver in the NASCAR team owner’s stable
and winner of 188 races
across the top three circuits.
“I have had some football players who are real
easy during the week
and when they put their
helmet on, they are big
time and going for it.
Those are the guys you
want — and I think Kyle
has that,” Gibbs said. “I
don’t know that I have
ever seen him back off
on race day.”
Busch continued his
assault on the NASCAR
record book Sunday
night by winning the
Coca-Cola 600 and
becoming the ﬁrst driver
in modern history to
win a Cup points race
at every track on the
circuit.
Gibbs said Busch is
always after it, always
aggressive, and carries
that emotion with him.
“Some people are just
special when it comes to
game day — and I think
Kyle is one of those,”
Gibbs said.
Busch described himself as “bipolar” on race
day.
He said he was a little

extra rough around the
edges Sunday, something
that wasn’t lost on his
wife, Samantha. At one
point before the race she
asked him, “What’s the
matter with you?”
“I guess it’s just race
day,” Busch responded.
Busch said his favorite
part of the day is putting
on his helmet, getting in
the car and turning laps.
Crew chief Adam Stevens said Busch has 100
percent focus and commitment to winning.
“Nothing makes him
happy unless he is in
victory lane,” Stevens
said. “He doesn’t settle
for less from himself and
doesn’t settle less from
the people around him.
I take comfort for that,
personally. You know
what you are going to
get. He’s hard to beat.”
It was a record-setting
night for Busch, who
became only the 10th
driver in NASCAR history to lead more than
15,000 career Cup Series
laps. He led 377 of 400
laps to earn his fourth
win of the season.
Things we learned
from the Coca-Cola 600

Cup races, including

been Busch’s top
competition this year,
crashed on lap 83 and
ﬁnished in last place
after a tire went down
and he hit the wall.
“The car was really,
really fast,” said Harvick, who started 39th
because his No. 4 Ford
failed inspection three
times before qualifying.
“We came all the way
through the pack and
made it up into the top
three there and sometimes those things happen. I can’t complain
about anything that’s
happened this year. We
have to take the good
with the bad. … It was
just bad luck.”

Race setup changes?
NASCAR ofﬁcials
refused to change the
race package for the
Coca-Cola 600, and it
paid the price with a
race that featured one
dominant driver and
very little passing.
Martin Truex said
despite Busch “kicking everybody’s tail,”
he still liked this setup
more than the All-Star
race.
As for third-place ﬁnisher Denny Hamlin, he
replied, “No comment.”
Not surprisingly,
Busch liked the current setup and wasn’t a
fan of the All-Star race
package.

Johnson is frustrated
It has been almost a
full year since Jimmie
Johnson last won a Cup
race.
The seven-time Cup
champion has gone 36
straight races without a
victory. He ran well in
the 600, ﬁnished ﬁfth
and said “it feels good,
but I want to win. I’m
tired of running ﬁfth.
I’m tired of running
whatever it is.”
His last win came at
Dover on June 4, 2017.

Roval up next
The next time NASCAR drivers come
to Charlotte Motor
Speedway they will
be competing on “the
roval,” which combines
a new road course intertwined with a portion
of the existing 1 ½ mile
speedway.
Hamlin is not so sure
about the idea.
“The roval was meant
to save the race track
and things like that but
I am a bit of a skeptic,”
Hamlin said.

Busch’s pit crew
was flawless
Busch’s pit crew didn’t
lose a track position all
night.
“They were outstanding,” Gibbs said.

Toyota’s run well
The Toyotas ran well
all night at CMS, ﬁnishing 1-2-3. The rest of the
top 10 featured Fords
and Chevrolets.

NEW YORK (AP) — When veteran Todd Desgrosseilliers was recovering from battle wounds,
he went back to a boyhood love: ﬂy ﬁshing. The
organization he now leads has 8,500 participants,
one of whom was so inspired by Project Healing
Waters Fly Fishing that he told Desgrosseilliers:
“This program saved my life.”
Desgrosseilliers’ group for disabled veterans is
one of many receiving funding though the Bob

Power the latest Indy 500 champion
INDIANAPOLIS (AP)
— Will Power lost three
consecutive championships before he decided a
change was in order.
He knew he must
improve on oval tracks to
be considered among the
best in racing.
If there was any doubt
how serious Power was
about his turnaround, he
settled it Sunday by winning on the biggest oval
of them all.
Power won the Indianapolis 500 to check off
one of the few empty
boxes on his resume.
When he stopped hating
ovals, he won the 2014
IndyCar championship.
When he started to
appreciate Indianapolis
Motor Speedway and
made it a priority, he
ﬁnally ﬁgured out how to
win “The Greatest Spectacle in Racing.”
“You work hard at
something, it comes to
you. It eventually comes
to you, and (Indy) was
the last box to tick to
be considered as a very
successful driver,” Power
said.
Power gave team owner
Roger Penske a 17th Indy
500 victory in a sweep
of the “month of May” at
Indianapolis. Power also
won on the road course
— he’s considered a specialist on road and street
courses — two weeks ago
and Sunday’s win was his
34th, tying him with Al
Unser Jr. for eighth on
IndyCar’s all-time list.
Power also became
the winningest IndyCar
driver in Penske history
(31). He is the ﬁrst Australian victor in 102 editions of the race and was
able celebrate only a few
hours after countryman

AJ Mast | AP

Will Power, of Australia, celebrates after winning the Indianapolis 500 auto race, Sunday, at
Indianapolis Motor Speedway in Indianapolis.

motorsports.
Power is an emotional
and expressive driver,
and he’s most known for
getting caught on television ﬂashing both his
middle ﬁngers at IndyCar
race control. The moment
made him an internet
sensation. The Indy 500
victory he hopes makes
him an international star.
“To be the ﬁrst Australian to win the Indy 500,
that’s very special,” he
said. “Maybe they might
recognize me down there
now. I don’t think many
people know who I am
down there.”
He’s an Indy 500 champion.
As Power held off pole
winner Ed Carpenter,
the 81-year-old Penske
pumped his ﬁst in the air
and clapped. Penske was
elected to the NASCAR
Hall of Fame earlier this
month, but the Power
victory kept him in Indianapolis and he was unable
to travel to North Carolina to watch his three
NASCAR drivers race in
the Coca-Cola 600.
Come race day, it was
91 degrees, just short of
the Indy 500 race-day

record of 92 set in 1937.
The conditions created
a slick, 2 ½-mile track,
and new cars proved to
be a handful for even the
most experienced of drivers. Helio Castroneves,
Tony Kanaan, Sebastien
Bourdais and Patrick
were among those who
crashed in single-car
spins. Defending race
winner Takuma Sato was
also knocked out when
he ran into the back of a
slower car.
Power led 59 laps
but his ﬁnal pit stop
dropped him to fourth,
behind three cars that
were trying to win on
fuel mileage. Kanaan’s
crash with 12 laps
remaining set up a ﬁnal
restart with Oriol Servia
out front. Servia didn’t
get a great restart and
was passed by Stefan
Wilson and Jack Harvey.
But all three were gambling they had enough
gas to get to the ﬁnish
line, and it was Power
who was frantically chasing them down.
Wilson and Harvey
both ducked onto pit
lane for gas, giving
Power the lead with four

laps remaining. He knew
he had it won when he
took the white ﬂag all
alone, and spent the
ﬁnal lap yelling to himself in joy as he drove
away from the ﬁeld.
“I’ve won so many
races and poles, led
more laps than anyone. I
just hadn’t done it here,”
he said. “I’ve be thinking, ‘Am I going to ﬁnish
my career without a 500
win?’ I would race ovals
every week now because
I’m just so experienced
at it, I really enjoy it,
have become quite good
at it. I feel like every
time I go to an oval, I
have a chance to win.
“That deﬁnitely wasn’t
the feeling at the beginning of my career. I
would always think,
‘Oh, it’s going to suck.’
I never thought I could
win. Now I know every
oval I go to, like a road
course, I have a great
shot at winning. That’s
the attitude you have to
have.”
Carpenter was second
in another Chevy and
noted just how much
Power used to hate the
speedway.

MLB panel says baseballs getting extra lift
NEW YORK (AP) —
Baseballs really have
been getting extra lift
since 2015, and it’s not
from the exaggerated
uppercuts batters are
taking, according to a
10-person committee of
researchers hired by the
commissioner’s ofﬁce.
“The aerodynamic
properties of the ball
have changed, allowing
it to carry farther,” said
committee chairman
Alan Nathan, professor
emeritus of physics at the
University of Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign.
But the panel, which
includes professors
specializing in physics,
mechanical engineering,
statistics and mathematics, struck out trying to
pinpoint the cause.
The committee’s
84-page report was
released Thursday by
Major League Baseball.
There was no evidence
of meaningful change
in the bounciness of the
balls, formally called
coefﬁcient of restitution
(COR), or alteration in
batters’ swings, such as
uppercutting.
As for what caused of
the change in aerodynamic properties, it remains
baseball’s great mystery,
the sport’s equivalent of
the search for the Loch
Ness Monster.
“We have to admit and
we do admit that we do
not understand it. We
know the primary cause
is the change in the drag
but we just simply cannot pinpoint what feature
of the ball would lead to
it,” Nathan said during a
conference call Wednes-

day ahead of the report’s
release. “Therefore it was
probably is something
very, very subtle in the
manufacturing process
but again it has to be
pretty subtle, because if
it weren’t, we would have
found it.”
Physicist Leonard
Mlodinow, in an executive summary accompanying the report, speculated “manufacturing
advances that result in a
more spherically symmetric ball could have the
unintended side effect of
reducing the ball’s drag.”
The major league average of home runs per
game for both teams
combined climbed from
1.90 before the 2015 AllStar break to 2.17 in the
second half, then rose to
2.31 in 2016 and a record
2.51 last season. The
percentage of batted balls
resulting in home runs
rose from 3.2 percent in
2014 to 3.8 percent in
2015 to 4.4 percent in
2016 and 4.8 percent in
2017.
“We found a consistent
picture that the drag
coefﬁcient is a little bit
smaller as we progressed
through 2015 into ‘16
into ‘17,” Nathan said.
“Finally, we used our
physics expertise to
conclude that the small
change we found in the
average drag coefﬁcient
going throughout the
period 2015 to 2017 was
completely consistent
with the change in the
number of home runs per
batted ball.
“So you’re using partly
pure physics, partly a
model, partly statistical

data about home run
distances and things
like that, but it all hung
together very, very well.
So all four of those
things point to the fact
that it’s the aerodynamic
properties of the ball that
have changed. So that
much we know. What we
do we not know? Well,
what we do not know is
what speciﬁc measurable
property of the ball has
led to this change,” he
said.
The committee inspected the Rawlings factory
that manufactures the
balls in Turrialba, Costa
Rica, analyzed test data
from 2010-17 compiled
by Rawlings and the University of Massachusetts
Lowell, which has analyzed balls for MLB. The
group tested 15 dozen
unused balls from 201317 and 22 dozen gameused balls from 2012-17.
The committee devised
new tests conducted at
Washington State and
examined MLB StatCast
data from 2015-17 that
included pitch type, exit
velocity, launch angle,
spray angle, spin rate,
spin axis and distance.
MLB announced ﬁve
steps in response to the
report:
—Monitor temperature
and humidity of ball storage areas at all 30 ballparks this year and will
work with the committee
to determine whether
to mandate humidors
throughout the major
leagues in 2019;
—Update production
speciﬁcations with Rawlings and add specs for
aerodynamic properties;

—Develop aerodynamic tests;
—Create standards
for mud rubbing, to be
enforced by the umpires;
—Form a scientiﬁc
advisory council.
Balls have been stored
in a temperature and
humidity controlled
environment at Denver’s
mile-high Coors Field
since 2002 and in the
desert at Phoenix’s Chase
Field starting this season.
The Ofﬁcial Baseball
Rules state balls must be
5-5¼ ounces and 9-9¼
inches in circumference.
Major league balls have
rubber pills at the center,
wound over by three
layers of yarn that is 85
percent wool and 15 percent synthetic, and then
a thin layer of cotton.
The cover of hide from
Tennessee dairy cows
is hand-sewn with 108
stitches.
“Rawlings makes
baseballs with a much,
much, much tighter spec
than they are required
to do by the actual spec
itself,” Nathan said. “So
we recommended altering that and tightening
up the spec, and so that
when you say the ball is
within spec, it has some
meaning to it, and they
followed that recommendation.”
Application of the Lena
Blackburne Original
Baseball Rubbing Mud,
which comes from the
New Jersey side of the
Delaware River, was not
examined. The mud is
used by clubhouse attendants to make the balls
less slippery.
