ST. MARTINVILLE — After nearly two decades, St. Martinville is back at the LHSAA boys state basketball tournament. St. Martinville is going for a third straight upset of a higher seed when the No. 11 Tigers tangle with No. 2 Wossman in the 3A semifinals at 7:30 p.m. Monday in the Cajundome. The Tigers (22-11), who have won nine straight dating to a January loss to North Central, ousted No. 6 Ville Platte and No. 3 Sophie B. Wright on the road last week.

"Coach (Ihmaru) Jones said we needed a bucket. "After the timeout, I noticed they were double-teaming Jalen Mitchell because he had been hot. I got open and he passed the ball to me."

She left the stall and tried to walk towards the sink, but Epps grabbed her by the shirt and pushed her against the stall, placing his hand on her throat.

The period of adjustment for a first-year head basketball coach depends on many factors. Returning talent and plans to change the style of play are just two of them. Throw in a pandemic and some intense personal losses and the outlook could be bleak. It can also be a time of triumph … something Stefson Arnold of Family Christian and White Castle’s Dawan Carter look to illustrate this week. The two first-year head coaches have their teams in the LHSAA’s Boys Basketball tournament that begins Monday with semifinal games in Lake Charles and Lafayette. “When I came in, I knew we had a great group of kids,” FCA’s Arnold said. “But with no starter over 6-foot, I was going to put in a new system. Little did I know, it was perfect for them and they all bought in.” Arnold’s second-seeded Flames (26-13) face No. 3 Episcopal School of Acadiana (18-11) at 2:30 p.m. Monday at Burton Coliseum in Lake Charles.

A range of companies with wireless LANs are discovering that 50 percent to 90 percent or more of Ethernet ports now go unused, because Wi-Fi has become so prevalent. They look at racks of unused switches, ports, Ethernet wall jacks, the cabling that connects them all, the yearly maintenance charges for unused switches, electrical charges and cooling costs. So why not formally drop what many end users have already discarded -- the Ethernet cable? "There's definitely a rightsizing going on," says Michael King, research director, mobile and wireless, for Gartner. "By 2011, 70 percent of all net new ports will be wireless.
