| | | | Orlando area high school football practice begins with high hopes everywhere | QB, defense, depth among priorities as UCF opens fall camp | Grateful Tua knows he must now deliver playoff success for Dolphins after contract extension | | | | High school football starts in Florida. It’s a new year, a new attitude, with new hopes, many new coaches, numerous players transferring to new teams and a new atmosphere with the arrival of availability Name, Image and Likeness compensation for high school players. As Master’s Academy athletic director Trevor Berryhill put it this past spring, “It’s a new day and age.” | | | | | The Knights need a defense with better stamina that also can make big plays to be a factor in Year 2 of the Big 12. | | | | | Both teams return to action on Tuesday, with the U.S. taking on upstart South Sudan — a rematch of a 101-100 escape win for the Americans in an exhibition in London earlier this month — and Serbia meeting Puerto Rico in what could essentially be an elimination game for both teams. | | | | | Simone Biles and the rest of the U.S. women's gymnastics team walked onto the floor at Bercy Arena on Sunday in leotards adorned with thousands of crystals, the kind designed to attract as much attention as possible. | | | | | Garrett Cleavinger (7-2) pitched a scoreless eighth inning and Pete Fairbanks earned his 20th save of the season. | | | | | Paredes is batting .245 with 16 homers and 55 RBIs in 101 games this season. | | | | | There's plenty of time to talk about winning meaningful games another day. Tua wasn't always the QB you've seen on the national stage. He once was just a kid who finished homework early to practice football each day with his dad in hopes of becoming the player worth the contract he just signed. | | | | | Securing his financial future with the Dolphins, quarterback Tua Tagovailoa wants to make sure it's a worthwhile investment for Miami that leads to playoff success. | | | | | Joe Burrow, Justin Herbert, Tua Tagovailoa, Jordan Love and Jalen Hurts have been bolstering their statistics and their bank accounts. | | | | | Miami had a run-heavy day of drills in its first practice of training camp open to fans. It allowed Jeff Wilson to stand out. Plus, stock up, stock down. | | | |
