Photo by Justin Berl/ The Seattle Seahawks are tuning up for the start of the 2022 regular season with their second preseason game on Thursday night at home against the Chicago Bears. However, towards the end of the first quarter, they lost one of their exciting young rookies, as defensive end Boye Mafe left the contest. Not good news for #Seahawks...

Photo by Michael Hickey/ The Seattle Seahawks opened the 2022 preseason against the Pittsburgh Steelers last weekend, and while it was disappointing to drop a game, the standings reset before the regular season meaning the loss was meaningless. What was more meaningful was that the team exited the game relatively unscathed, as while the loss of Cody Thompson could be meaningful on special teams, he was unlikely to see many snaps on offense behind Tyler Lockett, DK Metcalf, Dee Eskridge and others. However, in the second game of the preseason against the Chicago Bears...

Photo by Thearon W. Henderson/ Sometimes all you need is a breath of fresh air. Stone Garrett is providing that and more as the D-backs took down the Giants in the finale. Looking at Stone Garrett’s stats for the year, you wonder why he wasn’t called up earlier. But a closer look saw a hitter struggling a bit since the start of August. You’d certainly not notice it with how he’s attacked some really good Giants pitchers the last two games, but in 14 August games, he had a .196/.222/.412 slash line across 51 AB’s. Nitpicking? Maybe, but for an organization that...

The latest attempt at a big three did not go as planned for the Los Angeles Lakers.

By this point, the Phoenix Suns need for greater point-guard depth is a well identified and pressing issue. However, after failing to address it so far in free agency, the team’s window to acquire another ball-handler is continuing to tighten. Phoenix need someone who is capable of producing in a playoff rotation, but one that […] Proposed trade with Boston makes little sense for the Phoenix Suns - Valley of the Suns - Valley of the Suns - A Phoenix Suns Fan Site - News, Blogs, Opinion and More

Which Seahawks running back should you draft: Rashaad Penny or Kenneth Walker III?

In one quick off-season, the Utah Jazz have gone from a genuine NBA Championship contender all the way to a team not quite good enough for a top-6 seed in the West, but not bad enough for a top-4 pick in the NBA Draft, and it’s something that needs to get figured out before the […] 3 games Utah Jazz should mark on their calendar in 2022/23 - The J-Notes - The J-Notes - A Utah Jazz Fan Site - News, Blogs, Opinion and More

Texas Athletics Editor’s note: With several sports going on this fall, Wildcat Wrap serves as a weekly recap that focuses on the Arizona programs that we do not have the time to cover on a regular basis but are certainly worthy of recognition.

Fink previously served as a UA assistant coach from 2003-10 under former head coach Frank Busch. Fink also coached at Ford Aquatics in Tucson from 2000-03. While at Ford Aquatics, Fink helped develop Lacey...

Last year, Tyler Baron was the main edge rusher entering the year for Tennessee football, but then Byron Young emerged and really took the role over. Young finished with 11.5 tackles for a loss and five and a half sacks. Still, Baron was productive, grabbing seven tackles for a loss and four sacks.

Madison Goerlinger and Iliana Hocking greet fans | Photo courtesy of Arizona Athletics Perhaps it’s fitting that Arizona soccer’s first opponent this season uses a meteorological phenomenon as a mascot. The weather has not been kind to the Wildcats as they prepare for their opening match against the Iowa State Cyclones on Aug. 18. Both of Arizona’s exhibitions have been disrupted by the Arizona rainy season. Their match at Northern Arizona was scheduled to be held at Lumberjack Stadium but had to be moved inside the Skydome due to the weather in Flagstaff on Aug....
