Winning the program's first state championship in 2025 - in his first season no less - hasn't affected St. Ignatius football coach JaJuan Lawson or his Wildcats one bit. Despite losing 38 seniors to graduation, including eight All-West Catholic Athletic League performers, St. Ignatius has been perhaps the most impressive team in the WCAL through two weeks. The Wildcats have recorded back-to-back identical 42-7 wins over two-time North Bay state champions San Marin-Novato and Marin Catholic-Kentfield.
Senior running back Luke Tribolet has been a workhorse with 34 carries for 208 yards and four touchdowns. Sophomore quarterback Isaac Liu has been terrific with 23 completions in 32 pass attempts for 350 yards and five touchdowns, three to junior Davion Moffett.
The defense has exceeded all expectations, led by junior linebacker Jack Riedy (12 tackles) and sophomore defensive back Casey Nelson (two interceptions, two caused fumbles, two recoveries).
"I don't think winning a state ***** le created any extra pressure on these kids," Lawson said. "We play in the most difficult league in Northern California. We're trying to get back to the top of the league honestly and that's what drives us. … New group, new goals."
The new goal is getting some revenge on Friday night and to beat one of the best teams in Northern California when the Wildcats visit Acalanes-Lafayette (2-0). The Wildcats, ranked seventh in the Metro Area, lost a wild 42-35 game last season in San Francisco to Acalanes, which is currently ranked No. 5 in the Bay Area.

McLaren and Red Bull have won their appeals against the result of the Monaco Grand Prix after a controversy over multiple incorrect pit-lane speeding penalties.
The victory means Alpine's Pierre Gasly loses the podium he was awarded after an appeal by his French team that overturned two five-second penalties.
Gasly, who finished third on the road, is dropped back to the seventh place he received in the official results.
Alpine, unlike the other teams involved, did not serve the penalties in the race because they believed they had been applied incorrectly.
Red Bull's Isack Hadjar is returned to third place and McLaren's Oscar Piastri fourth, with Racing Bulls' Liam Lawson and Arvid Lindblad moving up to fifth and sixth.

Team USA's bid to win a fifth consecutive FIBA Women's World Cup gold medal begins now.
The Americans open the World Cup with a a preliminary round-robin matchup against China on Friday, Sept. 4, to kick off Group D play, which features Italy and Czechia, in addition to USA and China.
Team USA has been dominant in this tournament, winning nine of the last 12 FIBA World Cups, including four straight. This year's team will be coached by Kara Lawson and features rising American stars like Caitlin Clark, Angel Reese and Paige Bueckers.
Both teams had to make last minute adjustments to their rosters. Four-time WNBA MVP A'ja Wilson, who was also the MVP of the 2022 World Cup, and Kelsey Plum won't play for Team USA in Germany due to health reasons. Meanwhile, two-time Olympian and Dallas Wings center Li Yueru won't suit up for the Chinese national team at the World Cup because her passport was lost in the mail, preventing her from traveling to Berlin for the international tournament. Yueru helped China capture a silver medal in the 2022 World Cup.

Team USA coach Kara Lawson isn't sugarcoating the fact winning 2026 FIBA Women's Basketball World Cup gold will be challenging.
The U.S. women have largely dominated their international competition winning eight straight Olympic gold medals and nine of the last 12 World Cups dating back to 1979. The field is getting better and Team USA could have an uphill battle in this World Cup, which begins Friday, Sept. 4.
"There's no question that the world is improving at a rapid rate. It's so exciting to see, and I see it at every level, obviously, being a college coach," Lawson said Tuesday. "... That's an obvious statement that the world is improving. It has continued to improve, and there's more depth to teams at the World Cup,"
"Now, when you look at rosters, there's a number of just high-quality players. The depth of these rosters is really strong. I think it's gonna be the most difficult World Cup to win that we've had because of that, which is exciting. I mean, you should want it to be difficult, you know? It should be hard to win. It's a World Cup, you know?"
The depth of USA Basketball will all but certainly be tested.

The US women's basketball team for the 2026 FIBA World Cup will be without two familiar faces in A'ja Wilson and Kelsey Plum.
A'ja Wilson and Kelsey Plum's decision to sit out the 2026 FIBA Women's Basketball World Cup has led to many doubting Team USA's chances of winning the gold medal.
However, USABWNT head coach Kara Lawson isn't worried. If anything, the coach has already moved on from her two veteran stars.

The future is bright, and the future is now for Indiana Fever writes Robin Lundberg, as he believes the current crop of WNBA stars led by Caitlin Clark will bring plenty of success in Team USA's campaign in Berlin for the 2026 FIBA Women's World Cup.
With plenty of firepower in coach Kara Lawson's side, many feel that the time has come for the passing of the baton from the likes of Maya Moore and Diana Taurasi a decade ago to Clark and Angel Reese as they lead the charge for Team USA.
In a video posted on X on Sunday, Lindberg shared his thoughts on the "new era" of women's basketball in the country and how it will give more hope for the growth of the sport.
"Anytime you get this changing of the guard, in real time for Team USA, that is reason for increased interest," Lindberg said. "Being representative of this new era, it's nice to see that for Team USA."
He also pointed out that the trio of Clark, Angel Reese, and Paige Bueckers will surely turn a lot of heads once the tournament starts on Friday.

Looking at the WNBA schedule and wondering why there's a two-week gap in games?
That's because from Monday to Sept. 16 the league is taking a hiatus for the women's basketball FIBA World Cup where a cohort of its best players will be competing with their respective national teams. Players began arriving in Berlin this week with the tournament's group stages set to tip off on Sept. 4.
This break is a standard procedure during any World Cup year, but this season as the pool of international talent has expanded in the WNBA, even more stars will be on the global stage.
The U.S. women's national team will be competing for its fifth consecutive World Cup gold medal with a roster composed of some of the WNBA's biggest stars. Las Vegas Aces forward A'ja Wilson and Phoenix Mercury guard Kelsey Plum were late scratches from Team USA's roster due to injuries. But a new era of players, including Caitlin Clark (Indiana Fever), Paige Bueckers (Dallas Wings) and Angel Reese (Atlanta Dream), will make their debuts with other young stars like Aliyah Boston (Fever) and Rhyne Howard (Dream). Washington Mystics teammates Kiki Iriafen and Sonia Citron will be making their debuts as well, replacing Wilson and Plum. Napheesa Collier (Minnesota Lynx) and Jackie Young (Aces) will also be starring alongside veterans Chelsea Gray (Aces), Kahleah Copper (Mercury) and Breanna Stewart (New York Liberty).
The U.S., who will be led by Duke coach Kara Lawson, tip off the group stage against China, which it holds an all-time 8-0 record against. Team USA will continue the group stages with a Sept. 6 game against Italy, which it is 1-1 against in World Cup play, and on Sept. 7 against Czechia, which it has a 2-0 edge against, before the quarterfinals begin on Sept. 8.

Racing Bulls is facing a tough decision at the end of the season as they have three drivers for only two spots in the 2027 driver lineup.
Currently, Liam Lawson and Arvid Linblad occupy the two Racing Bulls seats. Lawson is now a seasoned veteran F1 driver who impressed during his one-race cameo with Red Bull.
Lindblad, on the other hand, is a promising rookie who was labeled as the next highly touted Red Bull junior.
This year, Lawson has been better than Lindblad, but only slightly, with both showing their driving chops.

Racing Bulls driver Liam Lawson will remain with Red Bull Racing in the lead-up to the Italian Grand Prix in just under two weeks. The New Zealander is being prepared for the scenario in which the recovering Isack Hadjar, who suffered a wrist injury, is still unavailable in Monza, GPblog understands.
Liam Lawson earned an unexpected promotion to the main team last weekend for the Dutch Grand Prix, after Isack Hadjar sustained a fracture in his wrist during a practice session. As a result, Max Verstappen's teammate was unable to take part in the latest Formula 1 race at the Zandvoort circuit.
In announcing the temporary driver swap, Red Bull stated that Hadjar was expected to miss only the Dutch Grand Prix, with further evaluations to follow after the race to **** s his availability for the next round in Italy. GPblog has heard that Hadjar indicated internally last weekend in the Netherlands that his wrist already felt better than it had a few days earlier. The Frenchman is said to be optimistic about a swift return.
Should it become clear in the coming week that Hadjar is still not fit enough to race in Monza, Liam Lawson will once again step in for Red Bull Racing. With that possibility in mind, Red Bull has decided to keep the New Zealander with the team for the time being, so that he would arrive in Italy better prepared than he was in the Netherlands, if needed.
Lawson proved to be a fine substitute for Hadjar in Zandvoort. The 24-year-old driver finished seventh in the Grand Prix, which, given the relative performance of the cars, was exactly where Lawson could reasonably be expected to end up. Considering Lawson's performance, there seems to be no pressing need for Red Bull to rush Hadjar back into the car sooner than is advisable.

Liam Lawson's third race at Red Bull was exactly what Red Bull would have wanted from Liam Lawson. Solid qualifying, right behind Max Verstappen. No big mistakes and strong pace in the race. Points. He finally proved he deserved to be in that seat...
It's just that his third race at Red Bull wasn't Suzuka in April 2025, but Zandvoort some 17 months later.
So, how should we interpret Lawson's weekend? And what does it actually prove?
That Lawson is a capable grand prix driver? No, not that. That's too obvious anyway. One or two races can't change that perception. Everything he's done during his career is enough.
It doesn't prove he's destined to win the world championship either. One weekend is one weekend, after all. You'd need a much broader sample.

Yuki Tsunoda says Racing Bulls has been "pretty impressed" with the way he has adapted to Formula 1's 2026-spec machinery as he stands in for Liam Lawson at the Dutch Grand Prix.
Lawson got a call-up to Red Bull after Isack Hadjar injured his wrist over the summer break, hence Tsunoda's opportunity at Racing Bulls on a tricky sprint weekend in Zandvoort.
The 26-year-old was unfamiliar with the new generation of cars but has been getting closer and closer to impressive rookie team-mate Arvid Lindblad.
Tsunoda was 0.825s adrift of the Briton in the only free practice session, but brought his deficit down to 0.433s in SQ1 and 0.360s in SQ2, then 0.011s in Q1 and 0.102s in Q2, having finished the sprint race 11.5 seconds in arrears.
"Honestly, I'm super happy," the ***** anese racer rejoiced. "Certainly, I enjoyed so much this qualifying.

Caitlin Clark's mistakes during the fourth quarter in the Indiana Fever's 109-102 loss to the New York Liberty led to some harsh words from Kara Lawson.
Duke women's basketball head coach and the woman expected to lead Team USA into the 2026 FIBA Women's World Cup and the 2028 Olympics, Kara Lawson, was on the broadcast for Fever vs. Liberty.
The renowned coach had some direct criticism of Clark's mistakes in crunch time, calling them unacceptable, with many now worried about what their relationship might be like for Team USA.
Clark allowed the Liberty to get an uncontested offensive rebound with less than a minute in the game, with coach Lawson directly criticising her poor effort.
"They just give up a possession right there by not boxing out the shooter. Unacceptable."

A birthday gift for a young Max Verstappen fan took an unexpected but funny turn at Circuit Zandvoort when the shirt pulled from a green plastic bag turned out to be bright red and covered in Ferrari branding.
Formula 1 had its Dutch Grand Prix fan forum on on the Friday ahead of the sprint weekend, featuring Verstappen and his temporary team-mate Liam Lawson. Both drivers shone in their team colors; blue Oracle Red Bull Racing jackets with Ford Racing branding. It's the outfit's first season with power units built in partnership with Ford. And it's been mildly successful. Although not quite as successful as Ferrari who have been enjoying being the 'best of the rest' team.
The host tells the crowd the child is celebrating his birthday and has brought a shirt for Verstappen to sign. She offers Max a pen, at which point he spots the problem.
"Max Verstappen fan? He's got a Ferrari shirt!" Verstappen laughs.
The host looks playfully mortified. "There is no way that he's a Max fan! Come on! I should've checked, sorry."

Formula 1 had its Dutch Grand Prix fan forum on on the Friday ahead of the sprint weekend, featuring Verstappen and his temporary team-mate Liam Lawson. Both drivers shone in their team colors; blue Oracle Red Bull Racing jackets with Ford Racing branding. It's the outfit's first season with power units built in partnership with Ford. And it's been mildly successful. Although not quite as successful as Ferrari who have been enjoying being the 'best of the rest' team.

PARIS, Aug 21 (Reuters) - French President Emmanuel Macron, British Prime Minister Andy Burnham and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz will co-chair a meeting of the so-called Coalition of the Willing group of pro-Ukrainian countries on Monday.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy will be at the meeting in Kyiv, which will be attended both in person and remotely, Macron's office said on Friday, without specifying who will be there in person. The Ukrainian capital has come under heavy bombardment recently, and Zelenskiy has pleaded with his allies to do more to help his country.
European Council President Antonio Costa will attend the meeting in person and NATO Deputy Secretary General Radmila Shekerinska will participate remotely, NATO and the EU said in separate statements.
"The leaders will reiterate their determination to strengthen their support for Ukraine so that it can defend itself against Russian aggression," Macron's office said in a statement.

Liam Lawson was alerted about his Red Bull F1 chance as he arrived backed to United Kingdom from holidays, as he heads into the weekend with pressure but as much.
After his unceremonious departure from Red Bull in F1 2026 after completing just the two races, Lawson returns to the seat he vacated alongside Max Verstappen for this weekend in Dutch GP at Circuit Zandvoort. This is a second time he has been called-up in this way at this venue.
Few years back, he drafted in from Saturday at Racing Bulls for Danile Ricciardo, who injured his hand in practice. Co-incidently, he is replacing Isack Hadjar at Red Bull, who has injured his wrist in summer break. At least this time, Lawson has more days to prepare for the F1 weekend.
He got to know on Monday about the Red Bull F1 chance when he arrived back in the UK after his holidays. He managed one simulator session at Milton Keynes after all the seat fitting. But his preparation hasn't been any different, just that the eye to the details has been more.
The power unit is the same but it will be getting used to the chassis and car, especially in a F1 sprint weekend with just the one practice. There is pressure but not as much, with his future also on the line, considering the rumours around the promotion of Nikola Tsolov.

There was some debate between a few media members about whether the Washington Huskies' practice on Tuesday should be considered the ninth, the number of open practices Jedd Fisch's team has held, or the tenth, since Sunday's workout was closed to both the public and the media.
No matter which number people chose to go with, it was by far the most explosive workout of fall camp for Fisch's offense.
The biggest play of the day went to wide receiver Chris Lawson, who continued to build on a strong fall performance, as he broke away from the defense on a go route to haul in a 70-yard touchdown from second-string quarterback Elijah Brown.
Kennesaw State transfer Christian Moss also built on what has been an impressive camp. Early in the day, he hauled in a 13-yard touchdown from Demond Williams Jr. on a perfectly timed throw to his back shoulder during a 7-on-7 period, before he broke away from cornerback Rahshawn Clark on a deep post route during a full team drill for a 60-yard gain.
It was also a very nice day for sophomore tight end Baron Naone, who went up and over All-Big Ten honorable mention safety Alex McLaughlin for a 15-yard score in a 7-on-7 drill. After McLaughlin intercepted quarterback Kini McMillan in a one-on-one rep earlier on in practice, and letting the second-year quarterback know all about it, offensive linemen John Mills and Drew Azzopardi were quick to run into the end zone and return the favor.

The Washington Huskies have a lot of promising talent at wide receiver heading into the 2026 season, but the majority of it is unproven, including sophomore Chris Lawson.
After the former four-star recruit's career on Montlake got off to a hot start in the spring of 2025, injuries limited him in the fall, which led to him playing in eight games and tallying 10 catches for 110 yards in his debut campaign before he was sidelined for about half of the workouts in the spring of 2026. Now, fully healthy, Lawson has been making his mark left and right during fall camp.
During Saturday's scrimmage, Lawson compiled 5 catches for an estimated 90 yards, including an impressive 40-yard reception downfield from sophomore Treston Kini McMillan. While working against freshman cornerback Elijah Durr, he made a mid-air adjustment on a slightly underthrown pass to go up and over the defensive back to haul in the pass, as he has become a consistent contributor for the Huskies over the last few days of practice, which has caught the eye of coach Jedd Fisch.
"Chris is getting better and better. It's really making the competition at receiver is really becoming better than it's ever been, also, because you've got Chris, then you've got, and (Dezmen) Roebuck, you've got Rashid playing at a high level, and Christian (Moss), then you got Trez (Davis), and then Mason (James) makes some plays, messing a nice little catch down there, and a couple other plays," Fisch said of his depth of the position on Saturday.
As Washington's young talent continues to shine at the position, even with four-star freshman Jordan Clay sidelined with an injury, Lawson's versatility has continued to set him apart.

Racing Bulls Formula 1 rookie Arvid Lindblad has shed light on his partnership with team-mate Liam Lawson.
The 19-year-old Briton has impressed during the first half of his debut campaign. After picking up four points at the season-opening Australian Grand Prix with an eighth-place finish, he missed out on points at the ****** anese, Miami and Canadian Grands Prix. But he has since had a string of six points-paying grand prix finishes.
This consistency, combined with Lawson's own point-scoring form, allowed Racing Bulls to overtake Alpine in the constructors' standings ahead of the summer break.
"Honestly, I'd say we have a good relationship," Lindblad told F1.com of his relationship with Lawson. "I think together we've done a really good job to have a good dynamic in general, really being able to switch between the on and off track.
"On track, we both want to beat the other, and that's the nature of sport, but when we are out of the car, we have a genuine, nice relationship, and there's a nice dynamic within the team. That's made it enjoyable.

JEFFERSON, TX (KTAL/KMSS) — Jefferson went 12-0 in year one under head coach Ty Taylor, but with a younger and less experienced team last season, the Bulldogs fell just short of expectations.
But with a veteran team, a new division, the Bulldogs plan to get right back on track.
It is a new season in Jefferson, but something that won't change is their motivation. Last year just before the first game of the year, Jefferson's Avery Lawson was diagnosed with leukemia. Doctors have since cleared Lawson to return to workouts.
"He'll come up here, workout a couple days, then he'll go to Dallas to get chemo. It's an honor to be beside him and play with him," said quarterback Chance Washington.
"It's crazy cause he'll text me coach I can't be there today, I'm going to get chemo and I'm just like its okay," Taylor said. "He would come out to practice with a backpack on, with medicine he was receiving via pump. It was crazy seeing him running routes, doing all these things and we know he's hurting, we know he's struggling, and he's not complaining."

Former NBA veterans Enes Kanter and Royce White declared their entry into the 2026 WNBA Draft to exploit the league's ambiguous eligibility rules.
Their declaration came as part of a larger movement to limit the inclusion of trans athletes into women's sports, specifically the WNBA, after Indiana Fever's Sophie Cunningham raised the same issue.
Kanter and White's former NBA peers are not looking kindly on their move, with a cult-favourite point guard joining Robin Lopez in criticising Kanter and White's decision.
Ty Lawson was drafted No. 18 in 2009 and enjoyed a nine-year NBA career as a role-player who was a fan favourite. Lawson slammed Kanter and White on X for what they're doing to the WNBA.
"These ex-NBA players declaring that they're women and trying to get in the 2027 draft is F– weird!!!!"

The Georgia Bulldogs are bringing a special adjustment to their uniforms early in the season. They unveiled that they will be playing in all-white uniforms against the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers in their home matchup on Sept. 12, 2026.
Georgia's all-white uniforms feature a white helmet and white pants, which are both not usually part of Georgia's attire. The Bulldogs frequently wear white jerseys, but they traditionally pair white jerseys with silver britches and red helmets.
Kirby Smart revealed it on the eve of preseason camp. He revealed it with safety KJ Bolden and tight end Lawson Luckie wearing the white jerseys, white pants and white helmets with the black Georgia "G" on their helmet.
Smart called out the players Tuesday, Aug. 4 under the guise of how players should dress and what they should wear for games.
"Ya'll been begging my (expletive)," Smart said as the players turned up their volume in reaction to the uniforms. "Hey, hey, hey. April Fools! April Fools! No, we're going to wear them to Western Kentucky. Y'all have been begging for long enough. We're going to wear them one time and get them out there."

INDIANAPOLIS — Ex-Indiana Pacers point guard Ty Lawson, who came to the team in 2016 with court-ordered supervision for multiple drunk driving charges, was arrested again last week — this time for stealing a $34 bottle of **** o's vodka from a liquor store in Colorado, court records allege.
During the arrest July 16 in Douglas County, Col., while being booked into jail, Lawson allegedly verbally **** aulted police, screaming and repeatedly calling an officer (expletive) and “white (expletive),” according to the New York Post, which obtained the probable cause affidavit.
"At times, according to the report, he kicked his cell’s glass wall and yelled 'stop' over and over again," the Post reported. "He also allegedly spit on the floor."
Court records say Lawson eventually “calmed down” and apologized for his actions.
Lawson, 38, played almost his entire NBA career with the Denver Nuggets from 2009 to 2015. In July 2015, he was traded to the Houston Rockets.
