Slack, Incorvaia reach semifinals
SANDY Former champion Tenille Slack sank a 15-foot putt on the final hole to edge Stacey Parkinson in the quarterfinals of the UGA Women's Match Play tournament Wednesday at River Oaks Golf Course.
Slack will face Mandi Incorvaia, a golfer on the Southern Utah University golf team in today's semifinals. Incorvaia defeated Patty Brimley on the 18th hole after hitting her approach shot within 18 inches.
Former State Am champ Lachell Poffenberger and Weber State golfer Emily Copier had a less stressful time advancing to the semifinals as Poffenberger defeated Sadie Palmer, 5 and 3, and Copier beat Tori Fishburn, 4 and 3.
The semifinals will be Thursday at 11:30 at River Oaks, with the finals set for Friday at 8 a.m.
Ex-Fresno St. coach gets settlement
FRESNO, Calif. (AP) The former women's basketball coach who sued Fresno State in a sex discrimination claim has reached a $9 million settlement deal.
In December, a jury awarded Stacy Johnson-Klein $19.1 million for unlawful termination. She claimed she was fired for threatening to expose the school's unequal treatment of female athletes and coaches.
University attorneys appealed, and Johnson-Klein filed a cross appeal. A Fresno County judge later reduced her total award to $6.6 million, plus $2.5 million in attorneys' fees.
The $9 million settlement brokered Tuesday appears to end the bitter court battle.
Johnson-Klein and her lawyers will receive a lump sum of $5.4 million immediately, said the coach's lead attorney, Warren Paboojian.
Starting in three years, they will also get an annual $150,000 to be dispensed over 20 years, and each of Johnson-Klein's six children will receive a $100,000 annuity to fund their college education, the university said.
