Desert Heat Shortens Matches at Easter Bowl, But All No. 1 Seeds in 12s and 14s Divisions Reach Quarterfinals; 16s and 18s Begin Play Tuesday; Las Vegas M25 Main Draw Features Six Teens

©Colette Lewis 2026--Indian Wells CA--The heat relented a bit today, with the temperature failing to reach 100 for the first time since the start of the Easter Bowl, but high 90s are not ideal playing conditions, so the decision has been made to continue using a match tiebreaker in lieu of a third set for the 12s and 14s quarterfinals and to begin the 16s and 18s tournament tomorrow with

Rhode Warriors: Villanova Takes Down Providence 88-82

Villanova (14-3) just keeps winning on the road, moving to 5-1 in true away games this year (with the only loss coming at Michigan).

Free agency no-man’s land

After the Philadelphia Eagles’ utterly predictable playoff loss on Sunday, one sentiment I commonly saw was that the Phillies needed to sign Bo Bichette to help raise the spirits of the city’s sports fans. It still hasn’t happened, but that’s not terribly surprising. As we’ve seen, baseball’s free agency period is far different than other […]

January jersey number update

Roster construction is far from complete, but the Twins have made several changes to their 40-man roster. They may not be high-prominence changes, but they are changes, and with those changes come new jersey numbers. Even the numerical assignations are not yet complete: four new members of the 40-man roster (Gabriel Gonzalez, Ryan Kreidler, Hendry […]

Hawks in the NFL: Wildcard Round

There’s only one story that truly matters from Wildcard Weekend. What a GD bummer. Ugh. Let’s recap the weekend. George Kittle and Cooper DeJean San Francisco’s been a great story all year. Decimated by injuries and an amazing fringe theory on why, they somehow made it to 12-5 and even had a shot at the […]

Minnesota Golden Gophers in the NFL: Wildcard Playoffs

We started with eight former Minnesota Golden Gophers in the NFL Playoffs looking for a chance to play for a Super Bowl and after the first weekend of action that number has been cut in half. With Jacksonville, Pittsburgh and the Chargers all losing, four other Gophers can worry about tee-times and beach vacations rather […]

3 Teams Pushing To Acquire Canucks' Sherwood

The Vancouver Canucks have lost eight games in a row and 10 of their last 111. The team sits dead last in the league and already traded away their franchise player in Quinn Hughes. There is no reason to think that more moves aren't coming soon with the way things are going. One of the biggest, even the biggest piece that the Canucks can trade is Kiefer Sherwood. David Pagnotta said, "Dallas has been in on it. Boston, Minnesota even prior to the Quinn Hughes move. There are others." There is no...

The state of super middleweight

Let’s take a moment and recap what all’s happening at 168 following Terence Crawford’s exit, organized by belt. WBC The WBC belt was the first to go after Crawford, in an extremely funny move, declined to pay the sanctioning fee and sent Mauricio Sulaiman spiraling into a tantrum. Sulaiman immediately ordered Hamzah Sheeraz to face […]

MBB Recap: Oregon at #8 Nebraska

Your Oregon Ducks traveled east to take on the #8 Nebraska Cornhuskers on Tuesday night, looking to bounce back after a tough couple of losses the past week. And for a while, it looked like they were going to be right there, and in it the whole way… But, well… That wasn’t quite the case. […]

Game Review: Tired Maple Leafs don’t show up in Utah, lose in regulation for first time in 2026

Coming off an intense, fast-paced OT win in Colorado, the Maple Leafs laid an egg in Utah on the second half of a back-to-back, losing in regulation for the first time in 2026. It was evident right from the jump that the Leafs just simply didn’t have it in this game. Utah dictated the pace […] The post Game Review: Tired Maple Leafs don’t show up in Utah, lose in regulation for first time in 2026 appeared first on Maple Leafs Hotstove .

Predicting the Penguins in 2026-27

The Penguins took a step in setting their future lineup for next season and beyond by giving Blake Lizotte a three-year contract extension earlier this week. Kyle Dubas has been extremely active on the margins of the roster by making a constant stream of transactions that send players coming in and out of the team, […]
