Herschel Walker wins Georgia's Republican Senate primary
Former Heisman Trophy winner Herschel Walker won Georgia's GOP Senate primary on Tuesday. Walker defeated five fellow Republicans: Georgia Agriculture Commissioner Gary Black, former Trump administration official and Navy veteran Latham Saddler, retired brigadier general Jon McColumn, contractor and Air Force veteran Kelvin King and former state Rep. Josh Clark.
He won the primary despite skipping debates with his Republican opponents and making multiple gaffes on the campaign trail. In the general election, Walker and the GOP will try to take back the seat incumbent Democratic U.S. Sen. Raphael Warnock won last year, helping Democrats squeak out a congressional majority. Warnock easily won the Democratic primary on Tuesday.

Reggie Warford, Kentucky's first Black basketball player to graduate, dies at 67
Reggie Warford, who was Kentucky's second Black men's basketball player and the first Black basketball player to graduate from the university, has died. He was 67.
Tom Payne was Kentucky's first Black signee in 1969 under legendary coach Adolph Rupp and played the 1970-71 season. In 1972, Warford became coach Joe B. Hall's first signee after the former assistant succeeded Rupp. Warford went on to become the Wildcats' first Black four-year player and graduated in 1976 with a degree in arts and sciences. Several African American players followed the Drakesboro (Kentucky) High School product, who scored 206 points in 50 games with the Wildcats from 1972 to 1976. One of his teammates was eventual All-American forward Jack "Goose" Givens, who led Kentucky to the 1978 NCAA title. Warford became a starter for Kentucky late in his senior season and averaged 6.5 points per game. His 14 points rallied Kentucky past UNC-Charlotte 71-67 for the NIT championship in New York. Warford was an assistant coach at Pitt, Iowa State and Long Beach State. He was also the Harlem Globetrotters' head coach in 2003.
