After a close and heartbreaking loss to Arizona State on Saturday, Arizona women’s basketball was looking to get back in the win column against Colorado. “We were in a position to win it, and then we did a couple silly things where we gave them some hope,” head coach Becky Burke said after the loss […]

BYU begins life without Richie Saunders when they travel to Tucson Wednesday for a rematch with Arizona. BYU beat Colorado 90-86 in overtime without Richie virtually the entire game, now the competition level steps up significantly. Arizona is also shorthanded themselves. Star freshman Koa Peat — Arizona’s second leading scorer — and rotation player Dwayne […]
There are nights in college basketball when the rim feels unforgiving, when every possession becomes a grind against doubt, injury, and history. And then there are nights like Tuesday inside Provident Credit Union Event Center; the kind that remind a program, a locker room, and a faithful few why belief never truly disappears. San Jose […]
The Kansas State Wildcats shook off the turmoil of the week to defeat Baylor 90-74 Tuesday night in a game they never trailed in Bramlage Coliseum. The win ends a 6-game losing streak for the Cats (11-15, 2-11 Big 12) and turns the page after Athletic Director Gene Taylor announced the dismissal of head coach […]
Checking back in on Olympic hockey, where the U.S. women are in the midst of an epic run that can only be described as dominant. Through the entire Olympics, teams have collectively scored just one goal against the Americans. That’s right. One goal. That includes America’s closest rival on the ice, Canada. America beat Canada 5-0 in the round robin play, a game Canada certainly remembers and will be using as fuel on Thursday.
And that’s important to remember because the score from that ga...
That just can’t happen. You cannot lose to Georgia, which is exactly what the Kentucky Wildcats did 86-78 Tuesday night at Rupp Arena. Georgia came into this game having lost five of six, with four of those coming by 15 points or more. It’s embarrassing all the way around. First Half Kentucky’s offense showed great […]
Arizona first fielded a baseball team in 1904, and every year since 1946. The program has won four national titles, made the College World Series 19 times and produced hundreds of MLB draft picks. But the Wildcats had never started a season 0-4, until now. The UA lost 3-1 to Nebraska-Omaha on Tuesday night at […]
The Nevada Wolf Pack went 41-14 last year, but a loss to San Diego State in the finals of the Mountain West Softball Tournament was enough to dash their NCAA Tournament hopes. They looked like a team ready to make up for that in a 9-7 midweek loss to the Arizona Wildcats on Tuesday night […]

New York Post | Greg Joyce: Aaron Judge’s barking elbow was a major concern for the Yankees last summer, with the ailment costing the captain some time and production in July and August. But after the season, team doctors told Judge he wouldn’t require surgery, and Judge says his elbow is now fully good to […]
It would be accurate to call Tuesday’s Champions League play-off round first leg between Juventus and Galatasaray a roller coaster ride — albeit one that ended in a Final Destination-style gore-fest. It wasn’t just the way Juventus self-immolated in the second half in Istanbul. It was the complete reversal from both the first half of […]
Update from the bench boss on the trio of injured Dmen.
The Kentucky Wildcats lost at home to the Georgia Bulldogs on Tuesday night by a score of 86-78. The Cats got off to a hot start for once, but the first-half blues hit yet again. This time, Mark Pope’s odd substitution patterns appeared to be the culprit. Kentucky led by as many as eight points […]
and I, for one, blame Rutgers. The first half ended with an abortive run-out by the Ducks concluded with a missed layup, and the Gophers turning that into a half-court possession in the final ten seconds in which some Gopher—and I promise you, I am not going to learn which one it was—put a baseline […]

©Colette Lewis 2026--Dallas TX--University of Texas head coach Bruce Berque didn't dream that his team would contend for a title at this year's ITA Men's National Team Indoor Championships, and when freshman Kalin Ivanovski delivered a 4-2 victory over top seed Ohio State Tuesday night at SMU's Styslinger/Altec Tennis Complex, securing the Longhorns first Team Indoor title, Berque still couldn't

This time, the expectations for the ‘Caps in this competition will be somewhat different, going from “happy to be here” to believing that they will be a genuine threat to win CCC after their trip …

What many had proclaimed as one of the biggest matchups in Mackey Arena’s history started off with a bang but quickly turned sour as the Purdue Boilermakers got beat decisively by the Michigan Wolverines. It is the second time this season that Purdue faced a top-10 opponent inside Mackey Arena and the second time they […]
This was a Nebraska-Iowa football game. Low scoring. Low possessions. Iowa getting the home whistle when it mattered. But it was the offensive foul on Reink Mast with 1:02 to go which was one of the worst offensive foul calls I’ve seen in a real long time. Reink Mast was set. And yes, Iowa’s best […]
The Wisconsin Badgers fell short in a big way to the Ohio State Buckeyes on Tuesday evening, losing 86-69 on the road to fall to 18-8 and 10-5 in Big Ten play. It was a big opportunity for the Badgers, who came off a huge week with wins over the Illinois Fighting Illini and Michigan […]
Welcome back, everyone! Whitecaps action is back for 2026, starting with a CONCACAF tie down in Costa Rica against C.S. Cartaginés. The hosts are currently second in the Clausura table and finished third in the Apertura, so this is a side in solid form and well into their season, rather than just getting started. They’re also a low-scoring team with strong defensive numbers, so expect …

I’ve been a fan of Michael Lewis’s writing for a long time — back even before “Moneyball” was published in 2003. I’ve read his books and taught his writing in my courses. When the Colorado Rockies announced they were bringing in Paul DePodesta to be their president of baseball operations, my thought were less “You […]
Barcelona’s hunt for a new center-forward in the summer to take over from Robert Lewandowski has led to speculation that the club are keen on Julian Alvarez and Dusan Vlahovic. Alvarez seems unlikely as he’s likely to be out of Barca’s financial reach, but Vlahovic will be available on a free transfer at the end […]
