CLEVELAND — To say losing Game 7 to the Toronto Raptors would be disastrous for the Cleveland Cavaliers is an understatement. Eight years of building led to the most expensive roster in the league that traded for a 36-year-old former All-Star at the deadline just to save this season. Dropping this game would’ve been an […]
Well, it’s finally happened. The San Francisco Giants have backed into the perfect opportunity to recall their top hitting prospect, left-handed hitting DH/1B Bryce Eldridge, along with one of their more intriguing ones, right-handed hitting C/3B/1B/DH Jesús Rodríguez. It’s desperation season already for the Giants and we’re all about to find out if these youngsters […]
They say home is where the heart is, and Northwestern Medicine Field at Martin Stadium certainly fits that billing. On Sunday night, the official bracket for the 2026 NCAA Division I women’s lacrosse tournament was revealed live on ESPNU. Northwestern (15-3, 7-1 B1G) was awarded the No. 1 overall seed for the third time in […]
The Notre Dame Fighting Irish had a disappointing weekend. Notre Dame was ranked No 1. in the nation and the top seed in the ACC Tournament — but that came to a crashing halt with a 15-10 loss to the Virginia Cavaliers. The Hoos went on to win the ACC Tournament, which didn’t really hurt […]

The Intern Diaries are back for another week to fill you in on what the current vibes are at Nation HQ. Status update: Not great thanks to the Edmonton Oilers.

Another Sunday afternoon home game for the Colorado Rockies meant another autograph Sunday, where fans can head down to the first-base side to get pre-game signatures from a handful of Rockies. This has been a fan favorite for many years at Coors, drawing lines that extend up the rows and into the concourse. I partook […]
Let’s start with the good stuff. Dominik Szoboszlai scored another mood lifting goal, this time at Old Trafford. It started a comeback for Liverpool that eventually fell short, but it was the kind of display that gave all of us supporters hope that we might be able to bring at least a point back from […]
UConn head coach Jim Penders earned his 800th career win as UConn (27-22) salvaged its series against East Tennessee State University (29-16) with a 4-3 win on Sunday at Elliot Ballpark.

It took a while, but we finally have a picture of what the second round of the NHL playoffs will look like (basically), and the Colorado Avalanche and Minnesota Wild are all set to begin the second round. This much-anticipated showdown has the talent of a Western Conference Final, with both sides icing some of […]
The Texas Rangers scored one run but the Detroit Tigers scored seven runs. Looks like I picked the right day to not be subscribed to the 20th different service that MLB has shoved exclusive games on. The Rangers had a guy striking out everyone and perfect into the fifth inning against a team going with […]
The Detroit Tigers bullpen put together a really impressive game as six different relievers handled the Rangers without much trouble. Meanwhile, Spencer Torkelson supplied some power, and a parade of soft hits that found holes helped them pile up the runs and win this series two games to one on Sunday night. The Tigers have […]
After the final buzzer of Game 6 — and the final buzzer of the 2025-26 season for the Rockets — I stood near the locker rooms, waiting for players and coaches to enter one last time. Positioned between the home and visiting locker rooms at Toyota Center, I watched as both teams passed by simultaneously, […] The post What should Rockets learn from another first-round playoff exit? appeared first on ClutchFans .

The pre-season finale serves multiple purposes. You get another opportunity to evaluate players that are competing for roster spots. The coach gets to implement more of their schemes that they will carry into the regular season. And your main rotation get some valuable minutes against live competition before the season begins. The New York Liberty […]
Iowa Cubs The Iowa Cubs were cast out by the St. Paul Saints (Twins), 8-7. Jordan Wicks had a rough start in a rehab assignment. He took the loss after giving up six runs on nine hits over 3.2 innings. The positive news is that he struck out four and walked just one and 50 […]
A looooooooooong day of golf came to a stop just before 7pm Central at Riverton Point Golf Club in South Carolina on Sunday, and after 36 holes, YOUR Marquette Golden Eagles are out in front of the 2026 Big East men’s golf championship.

Head coach John Gruden discusses the Toronto Marlies taking a 2-1 series lead against the Laval Rocket with a 6-2 victory in Game 3. On the team’s performance: It starts right away with us taking advantage of a power play. That carries over to the five-on-five game as well. I thought they set the tone. […] The post John Gruden on Mats Sundin joining the Leafs’ front office: “His name speaks for itself… We’re excited to work with him as a staff” appeared first on Maple Leafs Hotstove .
In an NCAA Division I Regional weekend short on surprises, one upset was recorded today, with the Stanford men taking out No. 11 seed Texas A&M 4-2 in College Station. The Cardinal, No. 18 in the most recent ITA rankings, lost the doubles point, but got a quick 6-1, 6-1 win from Samir Banerjee, who is down to No. 2 in the lineup after a series of injuries this season, to pull even. Two more
The Tigers have a pulse. LSU (29-21, 9-15) got a desperately-needed sweep over lowly South Carolina (22-28, 7-17) to at least keep the Tigers’ postseason aspirations alive for another week. While LSU’s NCAA Tournament outlook is cloudy at best, one can’t help but think the future is bright thanks to some blossoming freshmen. Saturday (Game […]

No. 33 UCLA claimed the team title at eight-under par, while UCLA’s Josh Kim earned individual medalist honors at eight-under.
The Dallas Cowboys wound up with Caleb Downs with their first selection during the 2026 NFL Draft. It never gets old saying or typing that out. As we are all aware, it took the Cowboys being a bit aggressive to fully land Downs. Dallas originally sat at 12 when the draft began and had to […]
Montreal is 2-1 when this woman sings O, Canada, so I’m actually starting to like her a bit. First period Lane Hutson deals with an early shift from Nikita Kucherov’s line by stripping the puck and turning it the other way. Montreal’s first chance comes from the Kirby Dach line after two Lightning defenders went after Josh Anderson in the end wall. Darren Raddysh was standing in the crease trying to check Nick Suzuki at the side of the net, and a shot from Mike Matheson...
PORTLAND, Ore. — Bridget Carleton has officially arrived in the Rose City, stepping into a role that feels like the ultimate culmination of a journey that began as a dominant collegiate star and evolved through years of professional grit.
