Colorado is locking up the winningest coach in team history for three more seasons.
The defending Stanley Cup-champion Colorado Avalanche announced on Tuesday they have reached an agreement on a contract extension for coach Jared Bednar.
The deal will keep Bednar behind the bench as the leader of the Avs through the 2026-27 season.
After failing to make it beyond the second round of the playoffs in his first five seasons at the helm, Bednar led Colorado to its third Stanley Cup in team history in 2022.

Leupepe, a name that most college basketball fans may not know, has grown a cult-like following over the last few seasons. West Coast Conference viewers have been treated to the Australia-native’s game — and glorious look — since 2019.

A class-action lawsuit is seeking treble damages for all current and ex-athletes that have been impacted by the Ivy League’s agreement to not offer athletic scholarships.

The two Patriots legends played together for eight seasons.
Dont’a Hightower’s retirement announcement on Tuesday meant another member of the Patriots dynasty is stepping away from the game. Hightower was a key member of three Super Bowl-winning rosters. He was named to two Pro Bowl squads and received second-team All-Pro recognition once during his decade-log NFL career.
As the NFL world is congratulating Hightower on a great career, his most famous former teammate also weighed in.

The Knights have named their next men’s basketball coach.
Fairleigh Dickinson has named Jack Castleberry as the school’s new men’s basketball coach.
Castleberry will become the program’s ninth head coach, replacing Tobin Anderson, who was reportedly hired at Iona earlier Tuesday to replace Rick Pitino. Castleberry served as an assistant on Anderson’s staff.
The Knights, as the No. 16 seed in the East Region of this year’s men’s NCAA tournament, pulled off a shocking upset against No. 1-seed Purdue under Anderson, who only spent one year as the program’s head coach.

In two weeks, the star-studded U.S. lineup went from trying to impress to dominating and discovered the joy of the World Baseball Classic in the process.

Kyrie Irving thinks people are being too judgmental when it comes Memphis Grizzlies star Ja Morant.
The Dallas Mavericks star said that the media specifically was too hard on Morant. He recently returned to the Grizzlies lineup after an 8-game suspension for streaming live video of himself waving a handgun at a club in Denver.
Irving, a guy who has done some monumentally boneheaded things in his career. He knows the feeling of having the media come down on you. Still, he did what a lot of people like to do when facing consequences for their actions: play the victim.

Cam Newton doesn’t believe that there are 32 quarterbacks in the NFL that are better than him. So he set out to prove it.
The 33-year-old former Heisman Trophy winner and No. 1 overall draft pick returned to his alma mater on Tuesday to throw at Auburn’s Pro Day. His NFL comeback attempt is officially underway.

Newton, who has not played a down of professional football since 2021, might serve as something of a warning to teams that are interested in Lamar Jackson.

The Steelers legend considered coming out of retirement in 2022.
In an interview on Tuesday with Mark Madden on 105.9 The X in Pittsburgh, former Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger revealed he was intrigued by the prospect of joining the 49ers last season.
San Francisco, which had Super Bowl aspirations, endured season-ending injuries to quarterbacks Trey Lance and Jimmy Garoppolo during the regular season. Those losses led the 49ers to think outside the box, including contacting Roethlisberger to gauge his interest in returning to the NFL.
