Collegiate Sports

COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) — Missouri athletics director Mike Alden says the NCAA’s review of its own investigation into possible recruiting violations at Miami “raises lots of questions” that could cause harm well beyond Coral Gables and Columbia. NCAA President Mark Emmert recently announced former investigators on the case improperly collaborated with lawyers for ex-Hurricane booster Nevin Shapiro. Missouri coach Frank Haith spent seven seasons at Miami.

SPRINGFIELD, Mo. (AP) — Evangel University’s men’s basketball team has adopted a 14-year-old fan who is battling a brain tumor. The team unofficially adopted Christopher Banks three years ago, but some symptoms recently re-emerged and the boy is scheduled to return to a hospital for testing. Evangel plays say Christopher inspires them and gives them energy.
