U.S. House offers moment of silence honoring native Kansan slain in Washington

U.S. Rep. Sharice Davids, D-Kansas, leads colleagues Tuesday in a moment of silence in honor of Sarah Milgrim and Yaron Lischinsky, who were shot and killed in May in Washington, D.C. Milgrim grew up in Johnson County, Kansas. (Kansas Reflector screen capture of U.S. House's YouTube channel) TOPEKA — Members of the Kansas congressional delegation participated in a moment of silence on the U.S. House floor to honor the memory of a couple slain in May during an apparent antisemitic attack outside the Capital Jewish Museum in Washington, D.C. Federal lawmakers stood in tribute for Sarah Milgrim, who grew up in Prairie Village, Kansas, and her partner, Yaron Lischinsky. Both were staff members at the Israeli embassy. They were fatally shot May 21 by a Chicago man who reportedly yelled 'free Palestine' while handcuffed and has been charged with first-degree murder. U.S. Rep. Sharice Davids, a Kansas Democrat who represents the community where Milgrim was raised, said the couple were 'tragically and senselessly killed in an antisemitic attack.' 'This hateful and targeted violence is not only heartbreaking, it is unacceptable,' she said. 'Antisemitism has no place in our country, and yet we are seeing a deeply disturbing rise in these acts of hate.' Davids said Milgrim was a member of Congregation B'nai Jehudah and that Milgrim and Lischinsky were committed to building understanding and connection between Israel and the United States. 'To the Jewish community in Kansas, Colorado and across the nation,' Davids said, 'please know that I am standing with you. We mourn with you. We recommit to creating a world where no one fears for their safety because of who they are.' Davids offered her thoughts Tuesday in collaboration with a group of representatives, including Kansas Republican U.S. Reps. Tracey Mann and Derek Schmidt. Milgrim was a 2017 graduate of Shawnee Mission East High School and earned a degree in 2021 from the University of Kansas. Her funeral service was May 27 at a synagogue in Overland Park, Kansas.

Bradley Davids leads Sharks to thrilling URC quarter-final victory over Munster in dramatic penalty shootout

UNBRIDLED JOY Bradley Davids (left) and Aphelele Fassie (right) celebrate after the Sharks' United Rugby Championship victory over Munster at King's Park, in Durban, on Saturday. Picture: Gerhard Duraan/BackpagePix With the match heading towards penalties at the end of extra time, Springbok Makazole Mapimpi on the wing was whipped off for the 22-year-old replacement, back Bradley Davids, by Sharks coach John Plumtree . The regulation 80 minutes saw the sides end 24-24 and in extra time neither team could manage any further scores. In what was a rare sight on a rugby pitch, the match had to be decided in a shoot-out from the kicking tee after the sides could not be separated after extra time. The Sharks scored a dramatic victory in sudden-death penalties in their United Rugby Championship quarter-final over Munster , at King's Park, in Durban, on Saturday. Bradley Davids Shines Under Pressure with Match-Winning Kick The move would make more sense moments later when the sides left the result in the 'boots' of their chosen kickers. With Munster's chosen hero Rory Scannell slotting the first kick, Davids matched his opponent by also converting his penalty from a tight angle. In his second attempt, the Munster centre missed, which left the door open for Davids. The Sharks youngster then stepped up, and calmly slotted the winning kick to thrust his side into the semis. Speaking after the game, Plumtree sang the praises of Davids. 'He's a real student of the game, Bradley, and he's just going to get better and better. He's just got that nature and is a very calm guy. He probably plays a bit above his years. He's confident and when you put him out there, he's not scared to have a go,' said Plumtree. 'We had no hesitation in putting him in that moment. We could've used [Aphelele] Fassie, but we were more confident that Bradley could do the job. Even if he didn't, we would have stood by him. It would've been tough for him if he had missed that last kick, but he kicked the goal to win it.' @Michael_Sherman IOL Sport

Extra kicking practice helped Bradley Davids become Sharks hero

Young scrumhalf Bradley Davids was sent into the action with two minutes of extra time remaining and went on to kick the winning penalty in the shootout. Sharks replacement scrumhalf Bradley Davids steps up and nails the winning penalty in the shootout to secure his side a thrilling quarterfinal win over Munster at Kings Park in Durban on Saturday night. Picture: Shaun Roy/Sportsfile via Getty Images Young Sharks scrumhalf Bradley Davids would never have imagined in his wildest dreams that it would come down to him, in a penalty shootout, to convert the winning kick to send his side into their first ever United Rugby Championship (URC) semifinal. In an unprecedented match, the Sharks and Munster couldn't be separated in normal time, drawing 24-all, before a scoreless 20 minutes of extra time sent it to a first ever URC penalty shootout. And after watching 118 minutes of the match from the substitutes' bench, 22-year-old Davids was sent on for winger Makazole Mapimpi, with the team management clearly aware they needed kickers on the field, should the match go to a shoot-out. And so, it did, the two sides unable to be separated. Davids was nominated as one goal-kicker, along with brothers, Jaden and Jordan Hendrikse. Aphelele Fassi, who kicked three penalties in the Sharks' recent pool win over Scarlets, was left out, showing the faith the team management had in Davids. And so they were vindicated, as the three kickers each nailed both their shots at goal, Jaden kicking from in front, Jordan from an angle on the right, and Davids from an angle on the left, and it was poetic that he landed the pressure final kick that secured the quarterfinal win. Munster landed four out of five kicks, Rory Scannell missing his side's second shot at goal, meaning Conor Murray didn't need to take his second kick with the match over. Kicking competition After the game Davids admitted that this wasn't something that they trained for, but that the little competitions between the kickers in training helped prepare him for the moment. 'I knew my role going on was just to take the kicks. So I prepared myself during the last 10 minutes of extra time,' said Davids. 'We don't plan for this. It's just a little competition we have among ourselves [at training]. We kick a lot against each other to see if Jordan ever gets injured, who will take over. 'So me, Jaden and Fassi always challenge each other to see who's the best in training. Luckily it came off tonight and all the hard work was worth it.' Davids also credited his girlfriend for supporting him when he would stay late after training to work on his kicking. 'In the week my girlfriend gets fed up with me because I always want to come and practice kicks in the evening after training. She brings her work with and sits next to the field, so credit to her for coming along and watching me kick,' said Davids. Big match temperament Sharks captain Eben Etzebeth was thrilled with the outcome and hailed the big match temperament (BMT) of the three kickers to get them over the line. 'I've never experienced this. First time going to extra time, thought it would be over before the hundred minutes, and then going to goal kicks,' said Etzebeth. 'I don't know how those guys felt having to take those kicks. It must have been really stressful. We did our jobs after a hundred minutes and we had to leave it up to them and thank goodness we won that lottery. 'That was a stressful BMT moment and the three of them slotted all six goal kicks, so it was unbelievable.' Sharks coach John Plumtree admitted that the management team was scrambling during extra time as the reality of a penalty shootout was becoming more apparent, as neither side couldn't find a winner. 'No we don't (plan for this). We were scrambling in the box there. We were looking at the pitch map, where the kicks would be taken from, and obviously with 10 minutes to go we were talking about getting Bradley on because he's a classy little kicker,' explained Plumtree. 'So we got him on with two minutes to go and wow, what a moment for him. Kicking the goal to win the match, huge BMT for a young fellow and I am proud of him.'

URC result: Davids kicks Sharks to glory over Munster

The Sharks and Munster were locked at 24-all after extra time, leading to the penalty shootout, with Davids and the Hendrikse brothers slotting all their kicks. Sharks hooker Fez Mbatha is driven over the tryline by captain Eben Etzebeth during their URC quarterfinal clash against Munster at Kings Park in Durban on Saturday night. Picture: Steve Haag Sports/Gallo Images A sensational cameo from Sharks replacement back Bradley Davids helped kick them to a stunning United Rugby Championship (URC) quarterfinal win over Munster after an unprecedented penalty shootout at Kings Park in Durban on Saturday night. A thrilling match ended level at 24-all, sending it to extra time, where neither side could get a winning score, and due to them having scored three tries each, it meant it had to be decided off the kicking tee. Davids, who was the reserve scrumhalf, was thrown on with less than two minutes left in extra time, for wing Makazole Mapimpi, and went straight into the kick-off along with halfback brothers Jordan and Jaden Hendrikse. All three kickers slotted both of their kicks in the end, with Davids taking two tricky shots from an angle, which was enough to edge the kick-off thanks to Munster utility back Rory Scannell missing the second kick for Munster, which proved to be the only miss in the end. Game of two halves In the match it was a game of two halves after a dreadful first period was followed by an exciting and open second, before the game went into extra time. The first half was a dire affair, with a slew of errors and penalties from both teams leading to a frustrating stop start encounter that saw just one score over the first 40. That came early in the match when flyhalf Jack Crowley made the most of scrappy ball, spotting space behind the Sharks defensive line and sending a perfect cross kick for wing Calvin Nash to run onto and score, with the conversion giving them a 7-0 lead after 10 minutes. Both sides had chances over the rest of the half, including Crowley missing an easy penalty attempt, and Sharks flyhalf Jordan Hendrikse pulling a long range attempt from a difficult angle, as the visitors went into the break ahead. The game then burst to life in the second half as both teams improved their play, making for a much more entertaining spectacle, although there were still a number of knock-ons and mistakes form both. Sharks fight back The Sharks first fought back, with wing Ethan Hooker, who was arguably their best player on the night, receiving a ball out wide outside the 22m, but stepped inside, stepped past the last defender and outpaced the defence to go over for a converted score to level things after 46 minutes. An easy penalty from in front for Hendrikse in the 54th minute briefly put the hosts ahead, only for Munster to come storming back with two tries in four minutes. First they attacked from their own half, Nash making the big break to the 5m, with the recycled ball eventually finding replacement prop Josh Wycherley to go over. After the restart the Sharks lost the ball in Munster's half, with them again attacking from deep and a massive grubber kicked ahead for wing Diarmuid Kilgallen to chase and dot down for the converted score, putting them into a 21-10 lead after 60 minutes. The back-and-forth half continued as the Sharks hit back in the 68th minute, using their dominant scrum as they earned a number of penalties in the Munster 22m, before finally attacking off the back of one and fullback Aphelele Fassi bursting through to score, making it a four point game. Five minutes later the Sharks were back ahead, kicking a penalty into Munster's 22m, attacked off the lineout and after a good initial surge, replacement hooker Fez Mbatha ran the perfect line to smash over, with Hendrikse's extras putting them 24-21 up. It was then a clutch long range penalty from just inside the Sharks half from Munster replacement scrumhalf Conor Murray to level the scores and send the game to extra time. Scorers Sharks: Tries – Ethan Hooker, Aphelele Fassi, Fez Mbatha; Conversions – Jordan Hendrikse (3); Penalty – Hendrikse Munster: Tries – Calvin Nash, Josh Wycherley, Diarmuid Kilgallen; Conversions – Jack Crowley (3); Penalty – Conor Murray
