By MARY CLARE JALONICK and MATT BROWN WASHINGTON (AP) — Pete Hegseth, President-elect Donald Trump’s nominee to lead the Defense Department, said he had a “wonderful conversation” with Maine Sen. Susan Collins on Wednesday as he pushed to win enough votes for confirmation. He said he will not back down after allegations of excessive drinking and sexual misconduct.

She said she had a “good, substantive” discussion with Hegseth and “covered a wide range of topics,” including sexual assault in the military, Ukraine and NATO. But she said she would wait until a hearing, and notably a background check, to make a decision. “I asked virtually every question under the sun,” Collins told reporters as she left her office after the meeting. “I pressed him both on his position on military issues as well as the allegations against him, so I don’t think there was anything that we did not cover.” The meeting with Collins was closely watched as she is seen as more likely than most of her Republican Senate colleagues to vote against some of Trump’s Cabinet picks. She and Alaska Sen. Lisa Murkowski, a fellow moderate Republican, did not shy from opposing Trump in his first term when they wanted to do so and sometimes supported President Joe Biden’s nominees for the judicial and executive branches. And Hegseth, an infantry combat veteran and former “Fox & Friends” weekend host, is working to gain as many votes as he can as some senators have expressed concerns about his personal history and lack of management experience. “I’m certainly not going to assume anything about where the senator stands,” Hegseth said as he left Collins’ office. “This is a process that we respect and appreciate. And we hope, in time, overall, when we get through that committee and to the floor that we can earn her support.” Hegseth met with Murkowski on Tuesday. He has also been meeting repeatedly with Iowa Sen. Joni Ernst, a military veteran who has said she is a survivor of sexual assault and has spent time in the Senate working on improving how attacks are reported and prosecuted within the ranks. On Monday, Ernst said after a meeting with him that he had committed to selecting a senior official to prioritize those goals. Republicans will have a 53-49 majority next year, meaning Trump cannot lose more than three votes on any of his nominees. It is so far unclear whether Hegseth will have enough support, but Trump has stepped up his pressure on senators in the last week. “Pete is a WINNER, and there is nothing that can be done to change that!!!” Trump posted on his social media platform last week.Juan Soto gets free luxury suite and up to 4 premium tickets for home games in $765M Mets dealSpecial teams played a big role in Dubuque Wahlert’s success this season. The Iowa Class 3A District 3 awards reflect that. Nathan Schiesl was named the recipient of the district’s Kicker of the Year and Punter of the Year awards, and Tom Scherr was named the Specialist of the Year. Linebacker Michael Bormann was tabbed the co-Defensive Player of the Year for the Golden Eagles, who claimed the first state championship in program history on Friday. Wahlert’s Jamie Marshall was named the district’s Coach of the Year. Wahlert linemen Matthew Bodnar, Carter Brant, Body Schmidt and Ryan Winter, defensive backs Luke Welbes and Brody Schumacher, linebackers Tate Schope and Will Welbes, and quarterback Drew Reilly were named to the all-district first team, along with West Delaware’s Brent Yonkovic, Owen Pettlon, Jeryn Funke, Seth Jackson, Luke Beswick and Sam Ogden, and Maquoketa’s Charlier Hafner, Ryker Henderson and Pryce Schueller.

Independence quarterback EJ Miller was named the Offensive Player of the Year. Indee linebacker Tate Wood was the co-Defensive Player of the Year. Schiesl was a secret weapon on special teams for Wahlert and had the ability to pin opponents deep in clutch moments, including punts downed inside the 10-yard line in the state quarterfinals and semifinals. He averaged 42.4 yards on 33 punts and 54 of his 86 kickoffs went for touchbacks. Schiesl, a senior, made 7 of 10 field goal attempts with a long of 38. He was 63-for-66 on extra-point attempts. Scherr, a senior, scored a touchdown in all three phases for Wahlert this season. He averaged 29.5 yards with one touchdown on 11 kickoff returns and had seven punt returns, averaging 21.3 yards and returning two for scores. He was the team’s top receiver, hauling in 25 passes for 598 yards and nine touchdowns. He also averaged 10.8 yards per rush, running 59 times for 637 yards and 11 more touchdowns. On defense he had 56.5 total tackles, 47 solo tackles, 3.0 tackles, 10.0 tackles for loss, one fumble recovery and two interceptions, with one returned for a touchdown. Bormann led the Eagles in both rushing and tackles and was a force on both sides of the ball. The middle linebacker finished his senior season with 95 total tackles and 66 solo stops. He added 3.0 sacks, 22.5 tackles for loss and a fumble recovery. He finished the season with 1,223 rushing yards and 13 touchdowns on 162 carries, averaging 7.5 yards per rush. He also caught 16 passes for 226 yards and two touchdowns. Marshall led the Eagles to the program’s first-ever appearance in the state title game, capping an undefeated season with a 49-14 victory over Humboldt in the championship game. Wahlert set program records for most wins (13) and fewest losses. Wahlert went 5-0 in district play and is will take a program-record 14-game winning streak into next season.
