SATELLITE BEACH — Satellite kicked off the SSAA Atlantic state playoffs hosting Lemon Bay in the first round on Oct. 29.
The four-seeded Scorpions played their brand of football with efficient offensive play and stingy defense in a 31-7 win over the fifth-seeded Manta Rays.
"I'm proud of the effort. I thought we played hard," Satellite head coach Dan Burke said. "I thought we did what we practiced to do. Looking forward to next week."
Satellite nearly pitched another shutout as Lemon Bay scored its lone touchdown with 1:45 remaining in regulation. The Manta Rays turned the ball over on downs four times, turned the ball over twice and punted once.
It was a new challenge for the Scorpions defense as the Manta Rays operated a triple-option offense. Lemon Bay ended the game averaging 3.2 yards per carry as it totaled 144 yards on 45 attempts.

Blake Roskopf threw five touchdown passes and Goodyear Desert Edge's defense stifled Scottsdale Notre Dame's offense in a 46-7 5A football rout on Thursday night, Sept. 10, at Desert Edge.
Roskopf quickly carved up Notre Dame's defense, finding open receivers all over the field. He threw two touchdown passes to Jhaheem Brown and two to Zerek Sidney, including a 61-yarder that gave the top-ranked Scorpions (3-0) a 40-7 lead with five minutes left in the third quarter.
Roskopf, a Washington commit, has quietly thrown 12 touchdown passes in Desert Edge's first three games.
But the story of its season so far has been the defense, led by electric junior edge rusher Jalanie George, who had another monster game.
When Notre Dame's Austin Bush ran 3 yards for a score with 7:21 left in the second quarter, it was the first time this season that Desert Edge allowed a touchdown. The score came after Desert Edge twice lined up offsides on two Notre Dame field-goal tries. With short yardage, the Saints picked up first downs both times, leading to the score and a 7-6 lead.

Nvidia rose only 0.8% on September 4, while Astera Labs jumped 9.8% and Marvell gained 7.1%. The comparison was consistent with investors broadening the AI trade beyond accelerators into connectivity suppliers. Astera's rally also coincided with speculation that the company could be added to the S&P 500, although it was ultimately not selected in the September rebalance. Bigger accelerator clusters need retimers, switches, optical links, and custom silicon to move data without leaving expensive processors idle. Astera Labs, Inc. (NASDAQ:ALAB) and Marvell Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:MRVL) monetize that connectivity bottleneck from different positions.
Photo from Astera Labs
Astera is the focused rack-scale connectivity play. Its second-quarter update said a Q3 production ramp of the Scorpio X-Series 320-lane fabric switch was expected to drive the next revenue inflection, alongside growth opportunities across Aries, Taurus, and Leo. The bull case is content growth: each new generation of AI rack can require more connectivity silicon and software. The bear case is dependence on a concentrated group of hyperscale customers, product-transition timing, and a valuation that ***** umes strong adoption before every design win becomes revenue.
Hedge-fund breadth strengthened before the rally. Insider Monkey counted 73 funds holding Astera Labs, Inc. (NASDAQ:ALAB) at June 30, up from 53 at March 31. Lee Ainslie's Maverick Capital disclosed 1,067,215 shares, 12% more than in Q1. The quarter-end filing cannot show whether Maverick participated in the September move.
Marvell is more diversified. Its data-center business spans custom compute, electro-optics, switching, and interconnect, giving it multiple ways to benefit as cloud companies redesign AI systems. That breadth is the bull case because one customer's architecture can pull several product families. It is also the risk: custom programs can be lumpy, development costs arrive before revenue, and investors may overestimate the near-term contribution of announced wins.

Becoming a millionaire through artificial intelligence (AI) investing doesn't necessarily mean betting on the next big chipmaker; it could mean finding the companies solving the infrastructure bottlenecks behind the boom. These three stocks are powering the AI build-out in different ways, and if the growth continues, they could have serious millionaire-making potential.
Astera Labs (NASDAQ: ALAB) solves a problem **** ody thought about until AI clusters got enormous. When you connect thousands of accelerators, the signal degrades over distance, and the connection between compute and memory becomes the bottleneck rather than the compute itself.
Missed Nvidia in 2009? This Rare Signal Is Flashing Again. In 2009, a "Double Down" signal flashed for a little-known chipmaker called Nvidia. For the first time in years, that same "Total Conviction" signal is flashing for a company 1/100th the size of Nvidia. Continue »
Revenue hit $308.4 million in the first quarter of 2026, up 93% year over year, with gross margin at 76.3%. That margin tells you this is a design business, not a manufacturing one.
Astera Labs' Scorpio product family is worth paying attention to. Management expects it to become the company's largest product line by the end of this year, and the new X-Series 320-lane fabric switch targets a merchant scale-up market projected to reach $20 billion by 2030. Astera also holds a $6.5 billion warrant agreement with Amazon, which aligns a hyperscaler directly with its success.

CAPE TOWN, South Africa (AP) — South Africa coach Rassie Erasmus was looking forward to watching New Zealand counterpart Dave Rennie squirm for the next week after tying their four-test series on Saturday.
The Springboks relied on a masterclass of goalkicking by Cheslin Kolbe — seven from seven off the tee — to win the second test 33-26 after New Zealand outscored them on tries 4-3.
World champion South Africa dropped the first test in Johannesburg and hasn't lost consecutive tests at home on Erasmus' watch — since 2018 — and he was relieved they got back into a series in which they started as the heavy favorite.
"Of course I felt the pressure, and the players will tell you I felt the pressure. I try not to put it on them but I was nervous," Erasmus said.
He noted he and the older Rennie were November babies, both Scorpios, and quipped: "That's why he's able to work me out.

The Philadelphia Phillies appear to have gotten what they hoped for when they acquired Brandon Marsh from the Los Angeles Angels several years ago. The outfielder has developed into an important part of Philadelphia's lineup this season, reaching his first All-Star game as he provides some important batting order depth behind Kyle Schwarber, Bryce Harper and Luis Arraez.
Meanwhile, the players who the Angels received in exchange for him, once seen as a key piece of the Phillies' future, has struggled to meet expectations.

Marsh's emergence has made the 2022 trade one that's continuously revisited in Philadelphia, particularly as former top catching prospect Logan O'Hoppe endures a difficult career path since leaving the organization.

Charles Scaggs, a name that might not ring a bell right away, but one that wrestling fans from the 90s and early 2000s will recognize instantly once you mention 2 Cold Scorpio or Flash Funk, has pleaded guilty to second-degree ****** ault and armed criminal action. The 60-year-old former WCW and WWE performer entered the plea as part of an agreement that spares him a trial, and he's now scheduled to be sentenced on Oct. 9.
The case stems from a 2024 incident at a Love's Travel Stop in Kansas City, where Scaggs stabbed a man during a confrontation, reported Cageside Seats. According to Scaggs' account to police, he was working security at the station and told a customer he couldn't light a cigarette inside the building. That exchange escalated into threats, then a physical struggle outside, and eventually Scaggs pulled a knife.
What makes this case particularly serious is that Scaggs told police he continued stabbing the man even after the initial confrontation, saying he stabbed him "a few more times," stated Penn Live. The victim was found bleeding from multiple areas, including his head, chest, abdomen, and legs, and was reportedly in and out of consciousness as he was taken to the hospital. He originally faced two felony charges before the plea deal was reached.
For those who followed wrestling in that era, this news lands differently than your average crime blotter item. Scaggs was a fixture on national television for years, known for an athletic, high flying style that was ahead of its time. It's a reminder that the people we watched flip off top ropes decades ago are living regular, complicated lives long after the cameras stopped rolling.
Before any of this, Scaggs built a genuinely impressive résumé in the ring. He held the WCW Tag Team Championship alongside Buff Bagwell, and later found a home in ECW, where he teamed with The Sandman to capture tag gold there as well. He also picked up the ECW World Television Championship on four separate occasions, a ****** le he defended with the kind of flair that made him a crowd favorite during ECW's scrappy, high risk heyday.

The Inner Circle 24 ignited Bangkok's iconic Lumpinee Stadium with another heart-racing Asia primetime event packed with explosive finishes and unforgettable performances this past Friday, July 31.
This members-only card featured four high-octane Muay Thai and MMA bouts, which streamed exclusively on live.onefc.com from "The Madison Square Garden of the East." With three of the four bouts ending in highlight-reel fashion, the show delivered non-stop thrills from beginning to end.
A new bantamweight MMA king was crowned in the main event, as Azerbaijani-Russian destroyer Elbek Alyshov turned off Enkh-Orgil Baatarkhuu's lights in the second round.
Alyshov dropped the Mongolian ******* leholder with a thunderous uppercut in the clinch, and then he followed up with relentless ground-and-pound to force the referee to wave off the contest. That spectacular performance earned him the ONE Bantamweight MMA World ******* le, as well as a US$50,000 performance bonus.
The co-main event featured another impressive display, as 19-year-old Lebanese sensation Ramadan "The Scorpion" Ondash continued his meteoric rise. Ondash edged out fellow teen star Johan "Jojo" Ghazali in a razor-close flyweight Muay Thai battle to claim a hard-fought split-decision victory.

Ramadan "The Scorpion" Ondash and Abdallah Ondash are brothers, close friends, and ruthless training partners who have spent much of their lives pushing each other toward the highest levels of Muay Thai.
The 19-year-old Ramadan will face former friend Johan "Jojo" Ghazali in a flyweight Muay Thai co-main event of The Inner Circle 24 on Friday, July 31.
Six years his senior, Abdallah will compete earlier that evening when he seeks revenge against Chokpreecha PK TomTKalaiyont in a strawweight rematch. The event streams live in Asia primetime from Bangkok's iconic Lumpinee Stadium exclusively for members at live.onefc.com.
The Lebanese siblings have already competed on the same ONE Championship card four times, winning every bout between them. Remarkably, each brother has suffered only one promotional setback, and both defeats came when the other was not competing alongside him.
Martial arts has always occupied an important place in the Ondash family. Their father was a wrestler, while their brother Ahmad became the first family member to seriously pursue Muay Thai and later opened a gym in Lebanon.
