Saints manager Craig Harrison was sent off as his side consolidated their place at the top of the Cymru Premier table.
The visitors were already two goals ahead - through first-half efforts from Daniel Williams and Rory Holden - by the time Harrison earned the wrath of the match officials early in the second period. Saints stay top while Airbus held on to eighth spot.
The tale of the table did not lie as Caernarfon eased to a thumping victory in south west Wales to move third.
Phillip Mooney and Sion Bradley putting them 2-0 up by the break before Ammanford's Lucas Davies saw red.
Bradley added their third from the penalty spot before Mooney also grabbed a second and Harri Wyn completed their scoring as they left winless Ammanford to lick their wounds and down in 15th place.

DARIEN - St. Joseph football coach Joe Della Vecchia smiled a bit when he was asked about senior Jake Rios.
"Bugs Bunny?" he said of the guy who can seemingly do it all for the Hogs.
Rios was in that cartoon mode once again, and was part of a shutdown defensive performance when No. 4-ranked St. Joseph defeated Darien 28-7 on opening night Thursday.
Rios caught a 41-yard touchdown pass from senior Jack Mooney, one of three long TD throws from the quarterback, consistently stymied Darien's special teams with kickoffs into the end zone, and even put a punt at the 1-yard line, which helped lead to a touchdown four plays later.
"He does a lot," Della Vecchia said. "He's kicking off into the end zone, he was big for field position, he's a great punter. There are a lot of things he does that you don't see in the stat sheet. He's big for us every week."

The Chicago Cubs are trying to track down the Milwaukee Brewers in the National League Central and could be getting Justin Steele back at some point.
Steele underwent elbow surgery in 2025 and a flexor strain this year has kept him on the shelf. However, he is determined to return this year. He "absolutely" expects to return this year, per The Athletic's Patrick Mooney. However, Craig Counsell knows he's far from being ready.
"We need to get him pitching in games first," Counsell said, per Mooney. "We're not going to skip steps. He rightfully should be (focused on returning this season), but we have a lot of steps to go before we get there.
"He hasn't pitched in an affiliated game in almost two years, so let's get him pitching in an affiliated game. We can understand that he's going to have to pitch in multiple games before he's ready."

According to court records, York was sentenced to two days in the Columbiana County Jail, which he'd serve concurrently with a credit for a day served. York was also ordered to pay $1,150 in fines.
Court orders show that $160 seized will be forfeited to the Mahoning Valley Human Trafficking Task Force as part of the agreement. He did get his phone back.
If you're wondering why York was in the area, he went to Cardinal Mooney High School in the Youngstown area.

A roundup of Manatee and Sarasota County high school sports for the week of August 17-21, 2026.
Bradenton Christian 3, Cardinal Mooney 1: Bradenton Christian's practice was so rough on Monday that head coach Zach VanDuinen had to stop it midway through. The Panthers' warm-up before facing Cardinal Mooney on Tuesday wasn't any better. But that offered no indication of how their first game of the season would go.
After dropping the first set, Bradenton Christian rebounded, winning the next three to defeat Cardinal Mooney at home 3-1 (23-25, 25-15, 25-17, 28-26). Junior Addelyn VanDuinen led the charge, recording over 15 kills and at least three aces. Junior Grace Hullinger also had over 15 kills.
Bradenton Christian's defense kept the Panthers in the game behind timely kills from junior Kendal Kleppinger and senior Kelsey Jerome.
"We have to execute," Zach VanDuinen said. "We have to pass well. We got to play good defense. And if we can do that, we give ourselves a chance. And tonight, we were able to serve just aggressive enough to keep them out of system, which for us was our game plan."

After eight long months, high school football has finally returned to Florida! Never mind that the kickoff classics won't count in the record books.
Some of the games on the schedule would fit right in with the state's first Open Division state playoffs. The biggest matchup pits St. Thomas Aquinas, the No. 1 team in the preseason Super 25 rankings, against fellow defending state champion Cardinal Mooney. Both start the season in the top eight in the MaxPreps rankings, which determine who would play in the new top-tier playoffs.
Preseason games began Thursday night, headlined by Buchholz vs. Lake Mary. The Friday night action also features West Boca vs. Carol City, two teams also in the Open Division field as the 2026 season gets rolling. And while the FHSAA is still in the preseason until next week, we do get regular-season action from the SSAA.

The Detroit Lions tried out former Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Ray-Ray McCloud on Sunday, ESPN's Marc Raimondi reported. McCloud signed with the Falcons as a free agent in 2024 and recorded a career-high 62 catches for 686 receiving yards as the team's starting slot receiver.
However, the 29-year-old return specialist struggled to replicate that success during his second season in Atlanta. McCloud was barely involved on offense in 2025, and after being listed as a healthy scratch for three consecutive games, he was released following the team's Week 7 loss to the San Francisco 49ers.
Something seemed to be off in the Falcons' wide receiver room last season. Both McCloud and Darnell Mooney struggled after breakout years in 2024, and the team fired WRs coach Ike Hilliard after a 30-0 loss to the Carolina Panthers.
The day before McCloud was released, the veteran wide receiver was sent home from practice without much explanation from former Falcons head coach Raheem Morris.
"I wouldn't say it is a disciplinary thing," Morris said at the time. "More a football thing with something we have to get straightened out."

Blue Jays are in same boat as Mets for potential Tarik Skubal trade originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Toronto Blue Jays came into the 2026 MLB season as one of the top World Series contenders, but after the season has gone very poorly for a few reasons, they're now at great risk of missing the postseason.
As part of missing the postseason, as they're well behind their top competition in the AL East and the wild card, the Blue Jays could wind up selling at the deadline.
As Katie Woo, Will Sammon, and Patrick Mooney of The Athletic noted, the Blue Jays are in the same boat as the New York Mets when it comes to the trade deadline, and more specifically, in pursuit of Tarik Skubal.
"Tier 8: Maybe in free agency. Teams: New York Mets, Toronto Blue Jays," the trio from The Athletic writes. "... The Blue Jays, despite winning the AL pennant last year, are fighting to remain a playoff contender. Both could be awfully motivated to reel in Skubal after the season."

The Atlanta Falcons were somewhat careless with their money during the last few seasons under former general manager Terry Fontenot. While fans will likely never get over the team giving Kirk Cousins $100 million before drafting quarterback Michael Penix Jr. one month later, Fontenot had some free-agent hits as well.
The Falcons signed star safety Jessie Bates III, who has been stellar over three seasons in Atlanta. Those around the league scoffed after the team signed Divine Deablo last year, but the veteran linebacker was among the best defensive players on the roster.
Cornerback Mike Hughes has been solid and Darnell Mooney looked like a steal after his first season with the team. However, current Falcons general manager Ian Cunningham was hamstrung by the mistakes Fontenot made, and could only sign bargain-level free agents in the offseason.
Cunningham has done a good job of retaining talent, though. He extended both Drake London and Kyle Pitts, which brought Atlanta's salary cap ******* e up to $37.9 million.
After looking at the Falcons' top-paid offensive players yesterday, here's a look at the team's 10 highest-paid defensive players based of their 2026 salary cap hits (all numbers via Over The Cap).

The FIFA World Cup has been dominating the headlines.
But a continent away Australia has once again been dominating with the cricket ball, claiming an unprecedented seventh Women's T20 World Cup ******* le after defeating England by seven wickets in the Final at Lords on Sunday.
It was the latest in a string of brilliant performances from the Aussies who chased down England's total of 150 with almost three overs to spare after winning the toss and electing to field.
The run chase was anchored by a magnificent 100-run partnership between Beth Mooney (64 off 49 ******* ) and Phoebe Litchfield (48 off 35 ******* ), who came together after hard hitting opener Georgia Voll was bowled in the second over.
The win saw Sophie Molineux lift her World Cup trophy as Australian captain since taking over from the now-retired Alyssa Healy in February.

One of the standout players at Florida's Friday Night Lights camp was class of 2027 quarterback commit Davin Davidson out of Cardinal Mooney High School in Sarasota.
Davidson's 6-foot-7-inch, 210-pound build is interesting enough, but his performance over the summer evaluation cycle has led to increased stock. Most recently, Davidson competed at the Elite 11 Finals, which is considered the top event for quarterbacks over the summer.
As a result, ESPN raised Davidson from the No. 118 spot on its SC NEXT 300 rankings to No. 107. He remains the sixth-best pocket-passing quarterback in the class and jumps inside the top 10 among in-state prospects.
"Davidson hasn't historically wowed evaluators in camp settings, but his skill and upside is obvious on tape, and his more polished fundamentals and mechanics were evident at Elite 11," wrote Craig Haubert and Tom Luginbill. "Davidson's often at his best when improvising, which is tough to evaluate in a structured workout environment, but he appeared more coordinated and played with better timing in 7-on-7 sessions."
Davidson has a good feel for the deep ball already, and he's adding size to his already large frame. Haubert and Luginbill describe him as an "exciting ball of clay to mold" for Jon Sumrall and the new coaching staff at Florida. He won't be on campus for another year, though.

According to reports, Burnley have identified Bellamy as a serious candidate to lead their Championship promotion push after parting with Scott Parker following relegation. He is not the only name on their list – Steven Gerrard and Brian Barry-Murphy have also been sounded out – but the official approach signals genuine intent from Turf Moor, and it forces a response from everyone with an interest in Bellamy’s next move.
The problem for Burnley, and for us if we were ever seriously in the frame, is that Bellamy is just over a year into a four-year contract with the Football **** ociation of Wales, running to 2028/29. Any interested club faces a compensation bill reported at around £700,000 – not an insurmountable sum at Championship level, but a clear signal that the FAW won’t be rolled over.
The FAW’s position has been consistent throughout. Chief executive Noel Mooney has repeatedly stressed Bellamy is entirely focused on Wales’ World Cup qualifying campaign and Euro 2028, which Wales will co-host alongside England, Scotland and the Republic of Ireland. Senior FAW figures told BBC Sport they are “very confident” Bellamy will stay and have held extensive talks with him, with his emotional investment in that home tournament described as a major obstacle to any mid-cycle departure.
Bellamy himself, asked about the links to both Burnley and Celtic, said he does not want to “wish away” what he has with Wales and that his “head has not been turned.”
That is unambiguous language, and it should temper expectations among those who had Bellamy near the top of any Celtic shortlist. The broader managerial search has already seen one high-profile target not work out, as detailed in our coverage of how the Wilfried Nancy pursuit unravelled, and the urgency around getting the right appointment has not diminished – particularly with Champions League qualification and recruitment timelines pressing hard.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — New York Giants head coach John Harbaugh believes the football should not hit the ground very often during unpadded, non-contact spring practices.
Harbaugh, then, could not have been thrilled with the offensive performance he saw on Monday.
There were a couple of highlight plays. A long, contested-catch touchdown by rookie Malachi Fields, drafted to make those kinds of plays, was encouraging. A red zone touchdown pass from Jaxson Dart to Isaiah Hodgins, who made a contested grab at the goal line, was pretty. There was a nice deep shot from Jameis Winston to Jalin Hyatt.
In general, though, the passing attack might be described as uninspiring.
Dart threw a bad interception. He broke the pocket to his right and launched a ball for Darnell Mooney down the middle. The ball was late, short, and easily picked off by Paulson Adebo.

Will New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart be one of the best players at his position in fantasy football next season?
Dart has a revamped group of teammates around him in the Giants' offense for next season. Malik Nabers is set to return from his torn ACL and give the Giants a potential 1,000-yard receiver once again. New York signed Darnell Mooney, Odell Beckham Jr., and JuJu Smith-Schuster, three former 1,000-yard receivers, to give Dart more exceptional talents to target in 2026.
All signs point toward Dart having a big year in 2026.
NBC Sports' Matthew Berry, in his way-too-early positional rankings for the 2026 fantasy football season, has Dart ranked No. 9 overall among quarterbacks for 1QB re-draft leagues using full points-per-reception scoring.
Dart earned 241.58 fantasy points last season in ESPN PPR leagues. The Ole Miss product is projected by ESPN to throw for 3,689 yards with a 21-10 touchdown-to-interception ratio in 2026, as well as 553 rushing yards and seven rushing touchdowns on his way to 300.94 fantasy points on the year, which ranks No. 7 at the position.

Minor League Recap: Jace LaViolette Triples

Jacob Cozart had the top offensive performance for Akron, going 2-for-5 with a home run and a double.
The recently-promoted Jaison Chourio wasn’t too far behind, reaching base safely four times. He went 1-for-2 with three walks, although he got caught stealing home. Chourio has a .333 batting average at Double-A.
Jose Devers was perfect at the plate, going 3-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base. Alex Mooney went 2-for-4 while Jake Fox singled and walked and Nick Mitchell walked twice and stole a base.
Starting pitcher Justin Campbell’s incredible season continued, allowing one run on four hits in a season-long 5.0 innings. He struck out four and walked one.
Relievers Jack Jasiak and Jay Driver combined for 3.0 additional innings of scoreless relief to help preserve the win.
