Malukas ‘Happy to the Moon’ with 1st Career PoleMeg Oliphant – Getty Images

David Malukas was almost in tears.
Roger Penske was on the phone, and Malukas, the young NTT IndyCar Series racer, was sitting at home with a torn-up wrist that not only hurt but cost him a plum deal with Arrow McLaren.
“At that point, it was nothing but dread and ‘It’s the end of the world.’ That was rock bottom for me, I’d say, because at that point I didn’t even know if I’d be able to get back into a car,” Malukas said.

It’s usually very difficult to beat the same team twice in a week. The Iowa women’s basketball team made it look pretty easy on Friday.
Just eight days after squeaking by Illinois at Carver-Hawkeye Arena, the Hawkeyes took on the Fighting Illini again in the quarterfinals of the Big Ten Tournament. But unlike that game in Carver last week, Iowa made easy work of a good Illinois squad.
The Hawkeyes’ 64-58 win over the Illini on Friday in Indianapolis was one of the best overall games they’ve played all season long.

Not even Bellarmine Prep’s lockdown defense could overcome the nation’s top recruit.
Five-star forward Tyran Stokes directed the show, Vikings guard Michah Ili-Meneese dropped a career-high 30 points, and No. 1 Rainier Beach toppled the Lions, 71-49, to reach Saturday’s 3A championship game in Tacoma.
It’s no secret that Bellarmine’s Bobby Moorehead has built a winner in the South Sound — the second-year head coach is responsible for putting Lions basketball back on the map.

Iowa women’s basketball defeated Illinois 64-58 on Friday in the Big Ten Tournament quarterfinals in Indianapolis.
The Hawkeyes dominated the entire game until Illinois rallied a bit in the final minutes to make the score appear closer than the game actually was.
Ava Heiden led Iowa with 16 points. Hannah Stuelke had 13.
In the video above, Hawk Central columnist Chad Leistikow offers up some instant analysis from the Hawkeyes’ victory.
Iowa will play Oregon or Michigan in a 3:30 p.m. CT semifinal on Saturday.

LAS VEGAS – UFC 326 ceremonial weigh-ins are in the books, and the fighters came face-to-face one final time before Saturday’s event.
The ceremonial weigh-ins took place at the MGM Grand Garden Arena, which is near the host venue, T-Mobile Arena, for the card streaming on Paramount+ and CBS.
UFC 326 is built around a rematch 11 years in the making, with BMF champ Max Holloway (27-8 MMA, 23-8 UFC) set to run it back against all-time octagon finishes leader Charles Oliveira (36-11 MMA, 24-11 UFC).

The NHL trade deadline showed that the race to succeed the Florida Panthers as Stanley Cup champions after they went back to back and fell short this season is wide open.
The Colorado Avalanche are rightfully the betting favorites, 5-2 on BetMGM Sportsbook, since they have been atop the league since October. Reacquiring center Nazem Kadri, who was part of their 2022 title run, while also shoring up forward and defensive depth only better positioned them for a deep playoff run.

Boston Celtics center Nikola Vučević sustained a fractured right ring finger early in Friday’s matchup with the Dallas Mavericks. He left the game and will not return, the team announced.

KISSIMMEE — Calm, collected and giving off what Fort Walton Beach wrestling coach Tobi Marez described as a “silent confidence,” Eric Stouder is one win away from what he called “a lifelong dream.”
The Fort Walton Beach senior began the second day of the 2A state wrestling championships with a 2-1 sudden-victory, quarterfinal win over Deerfield Beach’s Christopher Coleman and then outmuscled Tavaris’ Ari Bentley in a 9-4 semifinal victory to advance to Saturday’s championship in the 285-pound class.

UFC 326: Holloway vs. Oliveira 2 takes place on Saturday at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. The event is headlined by a lightweight bout for the symbolic BMF title between former champion Charles Oliveira and former featherweight champ and BMF titleholder Max Holloway.

No. 1 Tennessee (21-0, 1-0 SEC) opened SEC softball play on Friday at Sherri Parker Lee Stadium. The Lady Vols defeated No. 17 LSU (17-5, 0-1 SEC), 6-0. Rankings reflect the NFCA/GoRout Division I Top 25 Coaches Poll.
Sage Mardjetko started for Tennessee and pitched a complete game in seven innings. She totaled six strikeouts and 99 pitches, including 67 strikes, against 24 batters. LSU hit seven groundouts and seven flyouts against the right-handed pitcher.
Tennessee’s offense totaled nine hits, including one home run each from Makenzie Butt and Taelyn Holley.

The Bears found a new starting center, acquiring Garrett Bradbury from the Patriots in exchange for a 2027 fifth-round pick, a source told ESPN.

Israel is one of the United States’ greatest allies, and was the only other country to partner with the US to remove Ayatollah Khamenei in the war in Iran. 
But Israel is also the subject of an endless onslaught of criticism from outsiders, primarily because it responded to a massive terrorist attack by Hamas in 2023 that killed over 1,000 Israeli civilians. While any sane country would do everything in its power to ensure that such a threat was eliminated as thoroughly as possible, many rushed to criticize Israel.

President Donald Trump was joined by over 40 names spanning across different sports platforms to discuss plans on how to save college athletics. But at the end of the meeting, Trump was hellbent on fixing the issue with a new, comprehensive, executive order. 
The premise of the event was to gather information on what Trump could do if he wanted to sign some sort of federal legislation pertaining to NIL, the transfer portal, eligibility rules and certain sports being cut because of budget issues affecting the current landscape.
