Natl. Sports Headlines for Thursday, Nov. 17th:


STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) - A new judge has been assigned to

handle Jerry Sandusky's preliminary hearing next month on charges

that the former Penn State assistant football coach sexually abused

eight boys over 15 years. Robert E. Scott, a senior district judge

in Westmoreland County, would take over the case and conduct

Sandusky's hearing on Dec. 7.

 


STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) - Penn State campus police and their

counterparts in State College say that they had no record of Mike

McQueary reporting an alleged sexual assault by Jerry Sandusky on a

10-year-old boy in a campus shower. The details ran counter to

McQueary's claims in an email to former teammates and made

available to The Associated Press this week.

 


ST. LOUIS (AP) - Cardinals coaches Mark McGwire and Dave Duncan

are staying with St. Louis under new manager Mike Matheny.

So is third base coach Jose Oquendo,

who had been among the six candidates for the

managerial opening. First base coach Dave McKay and bench coach Joe

Pettini were dropped.

 


DENVER (AP) --There's NFL football tonight from Mile High in

Denver where the New York Jets take on Tim Tebow and the

rejuvenated Denver Broncos. The Jets will be without running back

LaDainian Tomlinson, who's out with a sprained medial collateral

ligament in his knee.

 


BLACKSBURG, Va. (AP) - Rested and refreshed after a bye week,

the North Carolina Tar Heels invade Lane Stadium tonight to take on

the 10th-ranked Virginia Tech Hokies, sporting a gaudy 9-1 mark.

The Tar Heels are 6-4 overall but just 2-4 against Atlantic Coast

Conference foes.
