While Youngstown State quarterback Beau Brungard received the Stats Perform FCS National Offensive Player of the Week honor on Monday, Indiana State quarterback Elijah Owens was listed among others for honorable mention.
Brungard, a fifth-year senior, accounted for a touchdown in all eight of the Penguins' series possessions, with him at QB, in YSU's 70-13 rout of Duquesne on Saturday. He completed 20 of 23 passes for 290 yards and six TDs, while also running for two touchdowns.
Five other players received honorable mention for the weekly award, including Owens, former Sycamore running back Plez Lawrence (now at North Carolina Central), Montana running back Eli Gillman, Stonehill quarterback Jack O'Connell, and Alcorn State quarterback Jaylon Tolbert.
Owens delivered his best performance as a Sycamore in Indiana State's 42-35 win at Eastern Illinois on Saturday night. The redshirt junior quarterback threw for 284 yards, ran for 98 yards, and scored five total touchdowns (three passing, two rushing). Overall, Owens was 21-of-33 through the air for 284 yards and three passing touchdowns, while adding 18 carries for 98 yards and two additional scores.
Meanwhile, Lawrence — who played at ISU from 2023-25 and rushed for 1,164 total yards in 270 carries — ran for 210 yards and three touchdowns in North Carolina Central's 30-22 win against North Carolina A&T on Saturday in Durham. Lawrence also had a 200-plus-yard game as a Sycamore, gaining 203 yards in 29 carries at Murray State on Sept. 30, 2023.

The Iowa Hawkeyes flipped the script on the Cyclones, winning this year's CyHawk game on a late field goal to pull out a 16-13 win. It was a scrappy, ugly, sometimes dirty game that was pretty much in line to how this series has gone these last ten years. But the Hawkeyes exorcised the demons of the last two years with a Caden Burr field goal from 42 yards out with :15 seconds left to bring the CyHawk trophy back home to Iowa City.
After last week's performance against NIU and with a brand new regime in Ames, many expected this to be a much more comfortable game for the Hawkeyes, especially under the lights in Kinnick Stadium with a raucous crowd. But Iowa State put Iowa into an early 10-0 hole midway through the second quarter that had the black and gold faithful starting to get that "here we go again" familiar feeling. But the offense managed to come to life, thanks to a massive 56-yard bomb to Tony Diaz that set up a Hank Brown touchdown run late the first half. A huge 45-yard Buhr field goal right before halftime reset the score and setting up a grinding second half of football.
Neither team had a great first quarter. Iowa started with the ball but procedural penalties doomed their drive. Meanwhile the Hawkeye defense held the Cyclones to only six plays in the quarter. Iowa State managed to move the chains in the second quarter with drives of nine and ten plays that ended on a Kyle Konrardy field goal and 7-yard Jalen Raynor touchdown pass, respectively. Raynor's stat line tonight won't impress anyone: 10/19 for 117 yards, and no touchdowns with some crucial misfires on potential big plays. But aside from those misses he made no back breaking mistakes that allowed the Iowa defense to capitalize.
Hank Brown REACHES OUT for Iowa's first score.

Iowa State regained their momentum coming out of the break with an eight play drive that ended with another Konrardy field goal. Running back Aiden Flora had the play of the drive with a 34-yard scamper down to the Iowa 19, but holding and illegal substitution penalties stalled the drive leading to the Konrardy kick to put ISU up 13-10. Iowa's offense went in to hibernation as they could not get Kamari Moulton going on the ground, the Cyclones were clearly committed to stopping the run and it worked for much of the game. Iowa's first three drives of the second half went for only 21 yards (four plays), 8 yards (3 plays), and -5 yards (3 playes, not helped by a holding penalty on Dotzler). Woof.

Fletcher staked its claim once more as a contender in Northeast Florida's marquee high school football district, stifling Bartram Trail 30-7 at Jack Taylor Stadium on Sept. 11.
Five takeaways, two punt blocks and 211 rushing yards for bulldozing senior running back Jah'myri Jennings added up to one statement for the Senators (3-1, 1-0).
A key goal-line stand in the second quarter swung the momentum toward the Senators, who scored 30 consecutive points to beat the Bears (3-1, 0-1) on a soggy night at Jacksonville Beach.

The Lobos will be howling soon.
UNM's men's and women's basketball teams will host a free-to-the-public Lobo Howl event in the Pit on Friday, Oct. 9.
The event has autograph signing opportunities, skills competitions and 3-point contests with both teams and the men's team also has a slam dunk contest, won last season by then true freshman and now returning sophomore point guard Uriah Tenette.
The 3-point contest last year was won by Kaia Foster, who is back for the women's Lobos roster, but has a broken left foot and will miss the beginning of the coming 2026-27 season. The Lobo men's player she beat in last year's final is also back: 2026 Mountain West Freshman of the Year Jake Hall.
More information on the Howl will be released by UNM in the coming weeks.

The pair have both been sidelined in recent weeks, missing the victories over Aberdeen and St Mirren, while Hogh also sat out the earlier win against Falkirk.
There had been concerns among the Celtic support that both players could be facing more significant spells on the sidelines, but those fears have eased after Tierney and Hogh were pictured back in training on Tuesday.
It remains to be seen whether either will be ready to start at McDiarmid Park, although Martin O'Neill will hope they can play some part against the Perth side.
Alistair Johnston was also back out on the grass as he continues his rehabilitation from a hamstring injury, although the Canadian is expected to require more time before making his competitive return.
In Hogh's absence, summer signing Camilo Duran has operated through the middle and continued his impressive start to life at Celtic.

Eighth-seeded Ben Shelton overpowered former world number three Stefanos Tsitsipas 6-2, 6-3, 6-4 on Sunday to book a US Open quarter-final date with defending champion Carlos Alcaraz.
Shelton -- riding high after a strong August that included a ***** le at the ATP Montreal Masters, where he didn't drop a set -- dominated on serve.
The American blasted a dozen aces and never faced a break point in a match lasting just one hour and 52 minutes.
Shelton put 71 percent of his first serves in play and won 84 percent of those points.
"I was focused today," said Shelton, a 2023 US Open semi-finalist. "I played a complete match from start to finish."

Chicago Sky owner Michael Alter has shared a statement after former NBA player Enes Kanter Freedom launched a lawsuit against the WNBA franchise.
Kanter attended the August 23 game between the Sky and the Indiana Fever, getting ejected in the third quarter after a courtside interaction with Natasha Cloud.
Kanter has sued the Sky over violating his First Amendment rights, claiming he was ejected for the T-shirt he wore with the literal definition of a woman to attack trans identity.
Team owner Alter issued a statement immediately after Kanter's lawsuit became a reality, calling the suit 'meritless and frivolous' because he was ejected after getting into it with Cloud, not for the questionable T-shirt he wore.
"We received word that the entity owning the Chicago Sky is being sued by Mr. Enes Kanter Freedom for allegedly violating his First Amendment rights. This lawsuit is meritless and frivolous. Freedom's claim that he was removed from Wintrust Arena due to his speech is false."

Meyer Shank Racing has confirmed that Mick Schumacher will join the team for the 2027 IndyCar season. After Indianapolis 500 champion Felix Rosenqvist left MSR for Arrow McLaren, MSR has decided that Schumacher will be his replacement.
Schumacher is out the door at Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing after RLL agreed to sell one of its three charters to Dreyer & Reinbold Racing ahead of the 2027 season. With Graham Rahal and Louis Foster already under contract at RLL, Schumacher was the odd man out after just one season with the team. Now he'll become Marcus Armstrong's teammate at MSR.
"I'm super excited to be working with everyone at Meyer Shank Racing and really excited to be joining such an ambitious team," Schumacher said in a news release. "It's going to be a special journey to start working with MSR. I am looking forward to what more I can learn from the team. They've had some really great success, and of course, going to an Indy 500-winning team is awesome.
"It will be great to start meeting everyone on the team and working with MSR's partners. I'm really just excited to begin working toward 2027 together and really start thinking about how we can create a great partnership together."
Schumacher will pilot MSR's No. 66 Honda, which Armstrong has driven for the past two years. When Armstrong signed a multiyear extension with the team in July, MSR announced that he'd switch to Rosenqvist's car, the No. 60 Honda.

Diamondbacks right-hander Corbin Burnes packed four innings' worth of outs into three innings during a bridge camp game on Thursday, Sept. 3, an outing that is expected to be his last before a return to the majors next week in Kansas City.
"Today, I think, was for me a good last step, if that's what this is going to be," Burnes said after facing a lineup of Los Angeles Angels minor leaguers on a backfield near Tempe Diablo Stadium.
Working with a fastball that topped out at 93 mph, Burnes worked three innings and retired 12 batters; in both the second and third innings, he remained on the mound after the third out to continue building his pitch count.
He struck out two, did not walk a batter and may or may not have allowed a hit depending on whether a ground ball to third was ruled an error. His repertoire looked generally sharp, and he gave up perhaps three hard-hit ****** .
"Swing and miss on cutters, sinkers, curveball, the slider, changeup -- I think we got a swing and miss on every pitch today, which is good," Burnes said. "Around the zone. For me, the thing is, I want to be able to command the baseball, and we were able to command everything, which is good."

Ashton Daniels left Florida State football's season-opening win over New Mexico State with positives under his belt, but plenty of room for improvement ahead of a Labor Day clash with No. 19 SMU.
He finished the night 17-of-27, with 202 passing yards, a touchdown and an interception, which resulted in Daniels being "disappointed" in himself.
"I was disappointed. He was disappointed in the choice on a rollout, trying to drive the ball, and the guy undercut it for the interception," FSU head coach Mike Norvell said during his game week press conference.
"But for the most part, he saw it well. There's some things that, even in the first game getting out there, a couple of drops that could be cleaner after that, I think would help with timing. There are a couple of route depths that we got to continue to make sure we're getting to where we need to get to on that. But I mean, as a whole, I thought he did some good things."
The second quarter interception didn't prove costly, though it came in a 10-7 game and it's a decision that raised alarms with Daniels' turnover history. However, he corrected himself in the game on the second play of the third quarter, tucking the football and running for a first down on a rollout rather than forcing a ball into tight coverage.

There has been a lot of speculation about Stephen Curry's future with the Warriors ever since reports claimed their front office is now focusing on the post-Steph era in Golden State. But the 38-year-old Warriors superstar has reassured their fans that he's not going anywhere.
Stephen Curry and his wife, Ayesha Curry, recently spoke to Dalton Johnson of NBC Sports and clarified that the rumors are not true, but smartly sidestepped why he's delaying the contract extension despite being eligible for a two-year, $136.7 million deal.
"There's no question I want to be here the rest of my career, and I'm pretty sure that's going to happen. The deal and the contract stuff will happen at the right time, and we're not letting it be a distraction from our preparation for the season and the fact that the team we're coming back with has a lot of familiarity."
"Hopefully we can be healthy and just have a chance to show what we're capable of, myself included, missing so many games last year. So, yeah, the goal stays the same. I want to be here. The extension stuff, we'll figure that out at the right time."
"But I'm ready for year 18. It's kind of crazy that it's been this long, and I'm still trying to play at a very high level to help us win, and I'll be able to do my job," Curry concluded.

Getting stuck behind trees is a common situation on the course. Since it's not a shot you can easily practice at the range, knowing what to do when it happens can be tricky.
Professional long driver Averee Dovsek shares a tip on what has helped her hit more efficient punch shots.
Many golfers think you need to take a 4-iron or something that keeps the ball low, but they hit it over the green or miss their target. Taking something like a seven or 8-iron can get the ball flight low and the right distance. More club is not always better, and a chip short of the green can be an easy up and down.

Cale Makar and the Colorado Avalanche have agreed to a eight-year, $163.2 million extension, his agency announced Friday. The deal will be worth $20.4 million in annual average value; Makar becomes the first player in the NHL to sign a deal exceeding $20 million in annual salary, via insider Frank Seravalli.
Makar is entering the final year of a six-year, $54 million extension he signed in July 2021. He was set to become an unrestricted free agent next summer.
Getting a deal done now allows Makar and the Avalanche to ensure the contract is for eight years. Once the NHL's new CBA goes into effect on Sept. 15, maximum contract lengths cannot exceed seven years.
The Avalanche confirmed the deal with a video of Makar, in which he said he "couldn't be more excited" to stay in Colorado for the long-term future.
Makar, 27, is entering his eighth NHL season, all with Colorado. Since breaking into the league during the 2019 Stanley Cup Playoffs, the UMass product has won the Calder Trophy as rookie of the year, been named to the NHL First All-Star Team four times, won two Norris Trophies as the NHL's best defenseman, and helped the Avalanche to the 2021-22 Stanley Cup ******* le, where he was also named postseason MVP.

HL idea: Patriots' Wide Receiver Depth Made Kayshon Boutte Expendable For Trade
The New England Patriots found themselves in a rare position to trade one of their top receiving targets.
Since the late days of the Tom Brady era, the Patriots have struggled to build out their wide receiver room. Rectifying that has been one of Mike Vrabel and Eliot Wolf's top priorities since taking charge.
With the investments made into adding at the position, one of New England's standout receivers, Kayshon Boutte, fell in the depth chart. Although he turned in another solid season in 2025, the additions of A.J. Brown and Romeo Doubs this offseason meant the end of his time with the Patriots.
That became official on Monday, August 24, as the Patriots and Texans agreed to terms that sent Boutte to Houston in exchange for second-year safety Jaylen Reed and a 2028 seventh-round pick.

Former NBA player Enes Kanter Freedom was removed from a WNBA game between the Indiana Fever and Chicago Sky on Sunday, following a verbal confrontation with Sky guard Natasha Cloud.
Kanter Freedom wore a black T-shirt to Sunday's game at Wintrust Arena in Chicago that read, "WOMAN: noun, adult human female."
The shirt appeared to be a reference to the ongoing controversy over the WNBA's approach to transgender players' eligibility and comments from Fever guard Sophie Cunningham, who told ESPN in a July interview that the league should block biological males from participation.

During a timeout in the third quarter of Sunday's game, Cloud was seen approaching Kanter Freedom, who was sitting courtside, shouting and pointing at him. Kanter Freedom then stood with his arms extended and stepped toward the court, before security escorted him out of the arena.

The 2026 high school cross country season has arrived, and the boys' division is loaded with talent and potential.
Top teams to keep an eye on include Chiles, Leon, Lincoln, and Maclay.
The Timberwolves feature plenty of quality and depth after they placed third in the FHSAA State Finals. Florida State signee Joshua Hicks (14:49) and returnee Jonathan Kiros (15:21) placed third and fourth respectively.
The Lions should be super motivated after missing out on state last year and picking up some of the top incoming freshmen in the area.
The Trojans have a strong core group, but will need to stay healthy and focused. And Maclay's top runners expect to help motivate a solid group.

Arsenal open their Premier League ***** le defence against Coventry City at the Emirates Stadium on Friday evening, just days after thrashing Manchester City in the Community Shield.
Mikel Arteta's side head into the new season as champions and heavy favourites against newly promoted opposition. The performance in Cardiff last weekend, capped by Calafiori's goal inside 26 seconds, gave an early indication of the intent Arteta wants to carry into the campaign proper.
William Saliba remains out long-term with a back injury, and Jurrien Timber is sidelined with a groin problem. Bruno Guimarães is a doubt for Friday after being substituted at half-time in the Community Shield with a thigh problem, later seen with an ice pack applied.
Arteta gave little away when asked about his fitness: "Let's see how he is. He's evolving really well, but let's see for tomorrow." Should he not be risked, Myles Lewis-Skelly is the likely replacement in midfield.
Declan Rice and Bukayo Saka are both confirmed fit. The pair returned late from England's deep World Cup run and appeared as substitutes in the Community Shield win over Manchester City — both are now expected to start. Arteta has strongly implied, without confirming outright, that Ezri Konsa's move from Aston Villa is imminent, though the defender will not be involved against Coventry regardless.

After a 25-year absence, Coventry City are back in England's top-flight.
In a special episode of BBC Radio 5 Live's Football Daily podcast, Mark Chapman is joined by Golden Boot-winning former striker Dion Dublin, club legend Steve Ogrizovic, BBC CWR's Rob Gurney, and others to reflect on the club's remarkable journey back to the top.
You can also hear from manager Frank Lampard - the man who brought the Sky Blues back to the Premier League - recall the club's rejuvenation under Mark Robins and hear fan stories from the darker years.
"It was a hugely difficult period," reflects Gurney.
"Keeping my twins, who are going to be 24 on Friday, interested when they were kids was very difficult. I was taking them to places like Barnsley and Peterborough to go and watch matches away from home. They plummeted all the way down to League Two.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Bobby Witt Jr. drove in the winning run with a two-out single in the ninth after pinch-hitter Tyler Tolbert hit a tying two-run single, giving the Kansas City Royals a 4-3 victory over the Athletics on Tuesday night.
Trailing 3-1, the Royals loaded the bases with one out in the ninth on a catcher's interference call, a single and a walk. Tolbert batted for Kyle Isbel and grounded a single into left off Hogan Harris (3-2) to tie it. Elvis Alvarado replaced Harris and got Isaac Collins to line out before Witt blooped a single into left for the Royals' sixth walk-off win of the season.
The Athletics took an early lead as Zack Gelof drew a first-inning walk, and Jonah Heim drew another to load the bases. Then, Tommy White knocked in the game's first run with a single to left. A second runner nearly scored, but was thrown out at the plate.
Athletics left-hander Brady Basso exited the game after just one out in the third inning. He gave up two hits and recorded one strikeout in his short, 32-pitch outing.
Jack Perkins inherited one baserunner when he took over, but caught Carter Jensen stealing second. The Royals flew out to end the inning. Perkins also worked around a leadoff walk in the fourth. Perkins held Kansas City to one hit and struck out four in 3 2/3 innings.

The Chicago Bears have some notable injuries during training camp, with the latest being running back Kyle Monangai, who suffered a right knee injury during Sunday's training camp practice.
According to reporters in attendance, Monangai got tangled up with defensive tackle Grady Jarrett during a non-padded practice, and both players went to the ground. Monangai's knee was examined on the field by trainer Andre Tucker before they both walked off the field, although Monangai was walking gingerly.
According to ESPN NFL insider Jeremy Fowler, Monangai suffered a hyperextended knee and was reported to miss several weeks, putting his status for Week 1 in question. Ahead of Tuesday's practice, head coach Ben Johnson confirmed that Monangai is "week-to-week."
Monangai served as part of Chicago's 1-2 punch at running back alongside veteran D'Andre Swift. Monangai totaled 783 rushing yards, averaging 4.6 yards per carry, and five touchdowns. While it took a month for the Bearsrun game to get going, they established themselves as the third best rushing unit in the NFL.

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Gabby Williams had 23 points and seven rebounds, Veronica Burton added 16 points and five ******* ists, and the Golden State Valkyries clinched a playoff berth by beating the Dallas Wings 78-70 on Monday night for their sixth straight victory.
Golden State (25-9) has already surpassed its win total from last season by two and will get another chance on the postseason stage after becoming the first expansion franchise to reach the playoffs in its inaugural season of 2025. The Valkyries lost to the top-seeded Minnesota Lynx by one point in Game 2 of their first-round matchup.
Golden State center Kiah Stokes played 23 minutes in her return from the concussion protocol after she missed last Wednesday's home win against Chicago.
Another sellout crowd at Chase Center cheered the team to its 15th win in the last 17 games overall — among those fans Warriors star Stephen Curry, son Canon, and some teammates.
The Valkyries took off in the second quarter after another slow start, ending the first half on an 11-0 run on the way to a 44-28 lead at the break. Golden State began 3 for 13 while Dallas made seven of its first 10 shots to go ahead 15-8.

Years ago, Odell Beckham Jr.'s wacky relationship with a kicking net on the sideline made headlines. In 2026, there's a new Giant in town forming a familiar relationship with a different sideline apparatus.
Second-year quarterback Jaxson Dart was back in the blue medical tent on Aug. 15 during New York's preseason opener against the Minnesota Vikings. After undergoing five concussion checks from hard hits he took as a rookie, Dart needed to be evaluated for a head injury once more after taking a hard sack in his first game as a second-year.
The 2025 first-round pick took a massive hit on a safety blitz from Vikings defensive back Jay Ward. Running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. missed his block, and Dart paid the price. The young quarterback headed to the tent for a concussion evaluation, though he eventually returned.
"I'm not gonna talk too much about the tent," Dart said with a smile when asked during the broadcast about the sequence. "Obviously, there's just little things we gotta clean up on."
