SIOUX CITY, IA (KCAU) β Here is a look at the best plays of the week from Siouxland sports!
5. Number five, Sioux City North softballβs Aliyah Moon comes swooping in from third base to catch the bunt off the Des Moines Lincoln batter!
4. Number four, we head to Orange City, as Sioux Central visits Unity Christian for a postseason matchup. The hit goes deep, but the Rebelsβ fielder Jack Christian comes from out of frame and lays out for the catch. But that wasnβt enough. Like SpongeBob, he says, β You wanna see me do it again?β Well, the next at-bat almost goes to the same spot, and who else is there but Christian, making another diving snag for the out!
3. That takes us to number three from Sioux City West softball, Kiarah Hummel slaps one out to left. Ball gets booted by the outfielder, thatβll bring in Evangela Heyward, and just a few seconds like a jetliner, Hummel slides in for an inside-the-park homer!
2. Number two, the Explorers hosted the Saltdogs Friday night, and after finding themselves down 6-1 in the bottom of the 7th, they clawed their way back and tied it, taking the visitors to the 11th inning when Braulio Vasquez would hit a 2 RBI single into the outfield and help Sioux City win it 9-8!
1. But our top play of the week comes from Moc-Floyd Valley pitcher Brooks McCarty. After the pitch, he makes an acrobatic move to snag the ball behind his back while doing the splits, then throws out the runner heading home!
Stay tuned for next weekβs top moments!

TOPEKA (KSNT) β Former Kansas menβs basketball player Lagerald Vick has been charged with attempted murder and using a firearm during the commission of a dangerous felony.
This story was first reported by the Kansas City Star, as Vick was charged and booked into the Shelby County Jail in Memphis, Tenn., on July 11, according to court records obtained by KSNT.
On July 5, at approximately 2:05 a.m., Memphis Police responded to a βshooting with person struckβ call at Regional One Hospital.
Police say the victim told investigators he became involved in a verbal confrontation with a man carrying a handgun tucked under his arm. The victim said he attempted to leave the confrontation, but as he turned to run, he was shot once in the back. He was later transported to Regional One Hospital in a private vehicle. Β
The victim was able to provide the first name of the suspect, which led investigators to develop Lagerald Vick as a potential suspect.
On July 7, the victim identified Vick as the person responsible for shooting him from a lineup.
Court records show Vickβs bond has been set at $1.5 million. He is scheduled to appear in court Monday, July 13 for an arraignment, followed by a bond review hearing Tuesday. Β
Vick, a Memphis native, played four seasons at Kansas from 2015-19, appearing in 94 games and making 41 starts. During his senior season, he averaged 14.1 points and 4.0 rebounds per game, before taking a leave of absence from the program in February 2019.
