Mar. 3—MITCHELL — For the first time this season, Dakota Wesleyan’s Dexter Payne claimed the Great Plains Athletic Conference baseball pitcher of the week award, the league announced on Monday.
Last week, the Sioux Falls native had 11 strikeouts on the mound in the Tigers’ second game of the three-game series against York on Feb. 27 in York, Nebraska. He recorded seven consecutive strikeouts to begin the contest in a complete seven-inning game shutout performance, only surrendering two hits on the day and three walks.
A half-marathon runner lost a championship and a shot at a world title in one of the strangest ways anyone has ever lost anything.
We’ve all seen road running events or cycling events where there are support vehicles out on the course.
That seems like a pretty straightforward gig. The courses are usually marked pretty clearly, and you’d think that it would be pretty tough to mess this up in any catastrophic, title-costing fashion.
But you’d be wrong.

Virgil van Dijk did not try and come up with excuses as Liverpool slumped to another stoppage-time defeat at bottom club Wolves.
Andre’s 94th-minute deflected strike proved the difference in a 2-1 win for Rob Edwards’ side, who have now taken points off three of the top five in their last three home outings, despite being doomed for relegation.
Liverpool had already fallen behind once only for Mohamed Salah to end his goal drought and get his side on terms, but his efforts proved in vain as Wolves came away with all three points.

Los Angeles Dodgers superstar Shohei Ohtani is a one-of-one talent, possessing special talent along with an incredible work ethic.
He can hit like a top-3 slugger, while reaching heights as a pitcher that can be in the top 3.

Not since Babe Ruth has a player been able to do well at a productive rate, but even the legendary player from a previous generation can’t touch Ohtani’s heights.

Arsenal duo Declan Rice and Kai Havertz are match fit, will travel with the squad to face Brighton
Arsenal duo Declan Rice and Kai Havertz are both fit to play and will travel with the Gunners’ squad to face Brighton & Hove Albion on Wednesday, according to Hand of Arsenal. The Gunners account and insider is famous for breaking some major news about Mikel Arteta’s side and the latest updates around the Emirates Stadium club.
Florida softball’s sophomore outfielder, Taylor Shumaker, was named the D1 Softball National Player of the Week and the SEC Softball Player of the Week on Monday after posting a .714 batting average at the Judi Garman Classic.
The California native felt right at home this week in Fullerton, notching 15 hits, including four home runs and four doubles. She also knocked in 19 runs, scored 14 herself, walked four times, stole two bases and posted a 2.207 OPS.
The Molineux erupts as Andre’s deflected
The Arizona Cardinals tried to trade Kyler Murray but apparently nobody would bite and so they have informed their quarterback he will be released by the start of the NFL’s new year on March 11.
And the reason nobody wanted to trade for the No. 1 overall selection of the 2019 NFL draft despite attempts by the Cardinals?
His contract. It’s toxic.
(More on that in a moment).
First a good-bye.
Murray released a statement on social media:
“To everyone that supported me and showed kindness to my family and I during my time in AZ, from the bottom of my heart, thank you.

Right now, the most iconic smile in the nation belongs to New Jersey Devils star and Team USA overtime hero Jack Hughes.
Not because he has some thousand-watt pearly whites, but because his mangled chompers — sustained late in the game courtesy of a high-stick — were one of the most memorable images to come out of the Olympic gold medal game.
As soon as I saw it, my first thought was that it was like a modern version of that legendary photo of Philadelphia Flyers great Bobby Clarke. The one where he’s got that big, toothless grin after winning the Stanley Cup.

If Kentucky decides to come out over the next few months and complain about the current structure of revenue in college athletics, I would hope folks reference the amended contract for outgoing athletic director Mitch Barnhart.
On Tuesday, after 23 years as AD, Barnhart announced that he was retiring from his position at Kentucky, ready for the next chapter in his life.
There will certainly be folks who looked at the last five years or so of his tenure and shrug when they heard the news of Kentucky looking for a replacement.

There is an important meeting this week about the future of college football. Sorry, there are actually two meetings this week. The one you may be thinking of is the highly publicized one that is scheduled for Friday at the White House. The far more important one was a secret. It happened in Dallas with powerful people from college football in attendance. This meeting was with Smash Sports, an extension of the investment group Smash Capital.
Adam Schefter and Chase Daniel join Dan Grazian
Back at UFC 319’s post-fight press conference in August, Dana White was asked about trusting Jon Jones to be on the White House card that was still 10 months off in the gloaming.
Dana wasn’t much in a trusting mood, you might recall, because: A) Jones had already reneged on a verbal agreement to unify the UFC heavyweight title against Tom Aspinall; B) had retired in June, not two months before the question was asked, thus vacating his title; and C) unretired the moment he caught wind that there would be such a thing as a “White House card.

Cade Horton has been someone the Chicago Cubs have been excited about for a few years now. He caught their attention after helping the University of Oklahoma reach the Men’s College World Series in 2022.
They selected him with the seventh overall selection in the 2022 MLB Draft. After signing, it would not take him long to fly through the minors.
Well, after the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan-Cortina proved to be bizarrely controversial, with several US athletes complaining about their country and making political statements, it’s refreshing to see a very different approach now.
The 2026 edition of the World Baseball Classic officially starts this week, and the Team USA roster is loaded with some of the best players in Major League Baseball. Bobby Witt Jr., Aaron Judge, Bryce Harper, Cal Raleigh, Tarik Skubal, Paul Skenes, just to name a few.

The Indianapolis Colts are trying their best to hedge their bets when it comes to Daniel Jones, and it’s led to a situation we seldom see in the NFL: use of the Transition Tag.

The first race weekend of any Formula 1 season usually has teams roll into town with some degree of hope that maybe, just maybe, this will be their year.
That’s especially true thanks to major regulations changes that have shaken up the cars and power units in some big ways, leaving the door open for some teams to make a surge up the running order as Brawn GP did in 2009 or like Mercedes did at the start of the turbo-hybrid era.
Unless you’re Aston Martin.
Pro Bowl center Drew Dalman has informed the Bears that he’s retiring at age 27 after four seasons with the Atlanta Falcons and one with Chicago, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
The Colts place the rarely used transition tag on QB Daniel Jones, preserving their right to match any offer sheet in free agency.
The Cardinals have informed quarterback Kyler Murray that they intend to release him on the first day of the league year next Wednesday, barring a trade between now and then, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter on Monday.
We’ve made it to March, the month in which The Players is contested at TPC Sawgrass. This means the yearly dialogue about whether the PGA Tour’s marquee event is or perhaps should be golf’s fifth major championship is in full voice.
The Players tournament itself leaned into the always-heated, yet relatively pointless discussion in February, by promoting the event with the tagline ‘March is going to be major.’
It seems like just about everyone – from notable players to media members to the casual fan – has offered up their opinion on the matter over the years.

NEW DELHI: India’s women’s cricket team has achieved another historic milestone as they have been nominated for the 2026 Laureus World Team of the Year Award after winning their first-ever World Cup title.
The nomination, confirmed by Laureus Sport, makes them the first women’s cricket team to receive this honour.
Their journey to the title included a record-breaking moment in the semi-final against Australia, where they completed the highest successful run chase in women’s ODI history — 339 runs — before going on to defeat South Africa in the final.
You can stamp a “1-of-1” serial number on any card. You can embed a diamond or a piece of jersey into cardboard. But there is one thing in the hobby that you simply cannot manufacture: history.
The modern sports card market is flooded with “manufactured rarities,” but occasionally, the stars align to create something that feels less like a product and more like a monument.
According to Kevin Lenane, VP of Marketplace at Fanatics Collect, that moment has arrived for baseball.
