UF football report: Fall camp’s dog days arrive for Gators • Orlando City clashes with defensive force in Leagues Cup
Sentinel Sports Final Friday, August 9, 2024 | | |
| | | | | The Olympic men's basketball semifinals were fantastic. What better than the USA, which isn't as dominant, vs. the host country with the biggest young star in the NBA -- Victor Wembanyama? ... Orlando City is back on track and are hoping to get a trophy, but they'll have to contend with a stingy Mexican defense to advance tonight. ... Florida and Miami are headed to an Aug. 31 clash to open the season. Both still have a lot to work on, but time is running out on fall camp and everyone's starting to feel not just the urgency but the heat. ... The NFL preseason is in full swing. Dolphins get the first crack among state teams. | | | | They scored six points in two seconds. And just like that, against what looked like overwhelming odds, the U.S. Olympic men’s basketball team was on its way. To a comeback. To a win. And to another Olympic gold medal game. | | | | | Redshirt junior receiver Marcus Burke continues to stand out, highlighted by a one-handed catch. The 6-foot-3 3/4, 197-pound Jacksonville native continues to make his case for a significant role after managing just 12 receptions since his arrival with the 2020 class. | | | | | Cruz Azul will be a tough test for the Lions' offense. The Mexican side has only allowed two goals in its last six games. | | | | | Guerschon Yabusele scored 17 points and France beat Germany in front of a raucous crowd to advance to the men's Olympic basketball gold medal game. | | | | | Miami has preseason questions at backup quarterback, the offensive line, its rookie class and with competition for its final roster spots that will begin to be answered in the exhibition against Atlanta. | | | | | Highlights include men's and women's 4×100-meter relays in track and field. | | | | | Brandon Lowe hit a two-run homer and former Cardinal Dylan Carlson drove in two runs to help Tampa Bay win. Lowe has hit seven home runs, nine doubles and had 18 RBIs in his last 26 games. | | | | | The Hurricanes are entering their second season with Shawn Dawson as offensive coordinator. Last year, Miami's offense was 31st nationally in yards per game (431.2) and tied for 39th in points per game (31.5). | | | | | Billy Bean's batting average wasn't mentioned in his obituary after Major League Baseball announced he died. There's a good reason for that. His bigger work for the game came off the field. | | | | | Dean is entering a critical year in his NFL career. Having missed games and takeaway opportunities due to injuries and drops, he needs to prove to the team he can avoid both in his sixth season. | | | |
