Although Caitlin Clark has grabbed most of the headlines for Iowa women’s basketball, and rightfully so, fifth-year senior Monika Czinano also deserves her flowers. The 6-foot-3 forward was the Hawkeyes’ second-leading scorer in 2022/23 with an average of 17.1 points per game.
She is also extremely patient.
As good as Czinano was throughout the regular season and during the postseason, nobody could pronounce her name during the NCAA Tournament.

The Diamondbacks ran the Padres off the field Tuesday, and it was beautiful.
Arizona won a nine-inning baseball game in a manner we had not seen in five years: with five stolen bases and two sacrifice flies. The 2018 Rays were the last team to do it.
The D-Backs came back from a 5–1 deficit on the road Tuesday to win 8–6 without hitting the ball out of the ballpark.
After Mike Florio of ProFootballTalk reported Bill Belichick has been shopping quarterback Mac Jones in trade conversations this offseason, former Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski said he doesn’t buy it.
Gronkowski joined Kay Adams of the Up & Adams show to discuss the speculation around the third-year Patriots quarterback.
“I think that was fake news,” Gronkowski said. “There’s just too much turnover this year. I mean [Belichick] already got a new offensive coordinator that he brought into place.
Phillies star Bryce Harper took batting practice on Tuesday evening ahead of the team’s game against the Yankees and plans to do so again on Thursday prior to the team’s home opener at Citizens Bank Park.
Harper underwent offseason Tommy John surgery, and continues to progress in his recovery. It is unlikely that Harper plays right field this season for Philadelphia, but will be in position to be the team’s full-time designated hitter while his tendon continues to heal.
Witnessing a hole-in-one during the Masters Par 3 contest isn’t rare, in fact, it’s essentially a yearly occurrence. What is rare is making back-to-back aces, but lightning struck twice for Seamus Power on Wednesday afternoon.
While the first couple of hours of the Masters Par 3 contest didn’t produce a hole-in-one, Power got the party started on the 8th hole.
The Irishman hit a wedge just past the flagstick allowing the backstop to do the work for him as his ball perfectly trickled into the hole.

Boston Red Sox outfielder Alex Verdugo is not a fan of Blue Jays pitcher Alek Manoah.
Verdugo, not exactly known for being the most subtle of baseball players, appeared on a baseball podcast and had some harsh words for Manoah’s style on the mound.
The 26-year-old said that he believes Manoah shows up opposing players when celebrating. To Verdugo, that’s a bridge too far.
“If it’s a genuine reaction and it’s for the boys, not directed towards somebody, then yeah (it’s fine),” he told the “Baseball Isn’t Boring” podcast.

This MVP race is an extremely close call, and that should be fun. But the discourse around Joel Embiid, Nikola Jokic and Giannis Antetokounmpo has turned toxic.
In his first appearance in front of the media since being hospitalized on March 8, Kansas coach Bill Self announced he will return to the Jayhawks sideline next season.
“I am 100% positive I will be coaching at the University of Kansas this upcoming season and hopefully many more after that,” Self told reporters Wednesday.
Self was initially admitted to the hospital after “complaining of chest tightness and balance concerns.” He underwent a “standard heart catheterization and had two stents placed for the treatment of blocked arteries.
