MORGANTOWN — West Virginia football defensive back Andrew Powdrell has played for two of the most well-known coaches in college football. Powdrell transferred over from UNLV this offseason, playing for Dan Mullen. Mullen has coached in 11 bowl games and spent a couple of years leading ...
MORGANTOWN — West Virginia football went this year's NFL Draft without a player from the 2025 team selected by a team in the league. There were former players selected, like Akheem Mesidor, who was picked in the first round by the Los Angeles Chargers. The Mountaineers ended their streak of having players drafted, but they weren't the only Power Four team to not have a player selected in one of the seven rounds. WVU was one of 10 schools, which included Colorado and Oklahoma State from the Big 12, and local schools Virginia and Virginia Tech, to not have a draft pick. But there ...
TORONTO (AP) — RJ Barrett hit a 3-pointer with 1.2 seconds remaining in overtime and the Toronto Raptors pushed their Eastern Conference first-round playoff series to a seventh game by beating the Cleveland Cavaliers 112-110 on Friday night. Evan Mobley had a chance to win it for Cleveland ...
The Stanley Cup Playoffs are full of new blood, and so far three teams have advanced to the second round after not even making the postseason last year. Colorado, Minnesota, Philadelphia and Anaheim have advanced from the first round, with the Flyers (six years) and the Ducks (eight) enjoying their first playoff trips in a long while. The Avalanche and Wild, who will face each other, each lost in the first round a year ago. More newcomers are on the way, too: Whoever wins the Boston-Buffalo and Montreal-Tampa Bay series didn't make the second round last year either. The Sabres ended ...

But back-to-back convincing wins by the 76ers in Game 5 and Game 6 have left a Boston team that once looked like a favorite to emerge from the Eastern Conference on the brink of an epic collapse. A loss in Saturday's Game 7 would be the No. 2 seed Celtics' earliest exit from the playoffs since the 2020-21 season. They may have to do it with star Jayson Tatum dealing with a new ailment after he briefly left Game 6 in the third quarter ...
DORAL, Fla. (AP) — Cameron Young finally made his first bogey of the week at the Cadillac Championship. It barely put a dent into his lead going into the weekend. Young shot a 5-under 67 on Friday to get to 13 under and take a five-shot lead at the midway point of the $20 million signature event at Trump International Doral. Young's lone blemish: a bogey at the par-4 14th, where his chip from an awkward sidehill lie didn't reach the putting surface. Otherwise, he was flawless — just as he was Thursday when he had a bogey-free 64 to grab the lead. He got the stroke he dropped at ...
