MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL PLAYOFFS
MARINERS CLUB BLUE JAYS, SPRINT OUT TO 2-0 ALCS LEAD
TORONTO — Jorge Polanco continues to deliver when it counts for the Mariners, and as a result, Seattle heads home with a 2-0 lead in the American League Championship Series.
The second baseman’s three-run homer in the fifth inning on Monday snapped a tie in Game 2 and propelled the Mariners to a 10-3 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays.
Polanco also had the go-ahead RBI single in the sixth inning of Game 1 during Seattle’s 3-1 victory and the game-ending hit on Friday in the 15th inning against the Detroit Tigers in the decisive Game 5 of the AL Division Series.
According to OptaSTATS, he is the first player in major league history to have a go-ahead hit in the fifth inning or later in three consecutive postseason games.
“He’s coming up huge in big moments,” Mariners manager Dan Wilson said of the switch hitter. “Just his at-bats have been so good, again, whether it’s right-handed or left-handed. Tonight it was left-handed.”
Polanco had help on Monday. Julio Rodriguez also hit a three-run shot three batters into the game and Josh Naylor added a two-run blast among his three hits for the Mariners, who will host the next three games of the best-of-seven series starting Wednesday.
Losing the first two at home puts the Blue Jays in a precarious position.
“Always going to have optimism about this team,” Toronto manager John Schneider said. “We’ve got to figure out ways to generate some more offense. Give the guys a ton of credit for coming back down three, you tie it. (The Mariners) just made more swings than us the last two games is kind of what it comes down to.”
Seattle scored three in the first against Trey Yesavage (1-1). Randy Arozarena was hit by a pitch, Cal Raleigh walked and Rodriguez slugged a 1-2 splitter to left for his second homer of the postseason.
Toronto answered with two in the bottom of the inning against Logan Gilbert. George Springer doubled to left and scored when first baseman Naylor threw wildly to Gilbert, who was covering first on Nathan Lukes’ grounder. Alejandro Kirk lined an RBI two-out single to center.
Ernie Clement scooped a single to center to open the home second and advanced to third on two groundouts. Springer walked before Lukes lined an RBI single to right to tie the game at 3.
Toronto center fielder Daulton Varsho kept the score tied in the third with his diving backhand catch of Eugenio Suarez’s two-out liner with two out and runners at the corners.
Eduard Bazardo (1-0) replaced Gilbert, who allowed three runs (two earned), five hits and one walk with two strikeouts in three innings.
Yesavage was replaced by Louis Varland with no outs in the fifth after Arozarena reached second on an infield hit and throwing error and Raleigh was intentionally walked. Polanco drilled a 1-1 fastball to center for his third homer of the postseason.
“A huge turnaround for us after giving up the lead,” Wilson said. “He’s a tough out right now. It’s been phenomenal.”
Yesavage was charged with five runs on four hits and three walks with four strikeouts in four-plus innings.
Seattle pinch hitter Mitch Garver led off the sixth with a triple off the center field wall against Mason Fluharty. Pinch runner Leo Rivas scored on J.P. Crawford’s one-out bloop single to left.
“We know we’re a good team, and now everyone knows that we can do this thing,” Crawford said. “And I think that’s what’s lighting the fire underneath everyone.”
In the seventh, Polanco singled with one out and Naylor, a native of nearby Mississauga, Ontario, hit his first homer of the playoffs against Braydon Fisher. He is the first Canadian-born player to homer in the postseason as a visiting player in Canada.
“It’s got to feel great in front of the home folks,” Wilson said. “You know it feels good going around the bases. A lot of history here for him, and his family is here, so it’s got to feel great.”
“But again, he’s all about the team. He’s all about winning. He’s all about doing what it takes.”
As the seventh continued, Yariel Rodriguez took over on the mound for Toronto, walked the bases loaded and was replaced by Chris Bassitt. Crawford lined a sacrifice fly to center.
Schneider maintains his faith in his bullpen is unshaken.
“I’m going to continue to trust them, for one, and I’m going to continue to trust everyone that either starts the game or comes in,” he said. “Sometimes bullpens can be volatile. There’s certain situations where you’re chasing matchups, you’re chasing velo, you’re chasing stuff for certain guys. The first two games it hasn’t worked out.”
Toronto’s Anthony Santander (back tightness) was a late scratch.

MILWAUKEE — The Los Angeles Dodgers did just enough extra to avoid wasting Blake Snell’s dominant pitching performance.
Snell allowed just one hit over eight scoreless innings and the Dodgers held on for a 2-1 victory when the Milwaukee Brewers left the bases loaded in the ninth inning of the National League Championship Series opener on Monday.
“That team’s going to fight. They’re going to fight until the end,” Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said of the Brewers. “We know what we’re up against. You just want to hope guys make pitches, keep making pitches.”
Freddie Freeman hit a solo homer in the sixth inning and Los Angeles increased the lead to 2-0 in the top of the ninth when Mookie Betts drew a bases-loaded walk.
Roki Sasaki replaced Snell to open the bottom of the ninth and issued a one-out walk to Isaac Collins. Pinch hitter Jake Bauers followed with a ground-rule double to center, forcing Collins to halt at third. Jackson Chourio followed with a sacrifice fly to cut the lead to 2-1.
Christian Yelich walked before Blake Treinen took over on the mound and walked William Contreras to load the bases. Treinen then fanned Brice Turang swinging on a 2-2 fastball for the save.
“You’ve got to give credit to those guys,” Roberts said. “They took the walks. They kept the line moving. And ultimately, we had to put the ball over the plate. And Blake fortunately had a good at-bat versus Turang.”
Game 2 of the best-of-seven series is scheduled for Tuesday in Milwaukee.
Snell (3-0) allowed only a leadoff single in the third to Caleb Durbin, and then, one out later, picked him off first. Snell struck out 10 and did not walk a batter in a 103-pitch outing.
“We faced one of the best pitchers in the game,” Yelich said. “He was on. When he’s executing like that, it’s going to be a tough night. We’ve got a lot of young guys in here, a lot of these guys first time facing him. He did a great job tonight. You’ve got to give him credit, sometimes. Just proud of the guys for battling to the end.”
Freeman snapped a scoreless tie in the sixth with his first homer of the postseason, a one-out solo shot to right on a 3-2 pitch from Chad Patrick (0-1).
The Brewers escaped a bases-loaded situation in the fourth with a bizarre inning-ending double play.
Bulk reliever Quinn Priester walked Teoscar Hernandez to open the frame, and Will Smith and Tommy Edman delivered consecutive one-out singles.
Max Muncy then sent a deep fly that center fielder Sal Frelick deflected high off the wall and back into his glove, forcing the runners to delay. Shortstop Joey Ortiz fired the relay home for a forceout. Catcher Contreras then ran to third and tagged the bag for another forceout.
The Brewers escaped again in the fifth when Enrique Hernandez hit a leadoff double and Shohei Ohtani was walked intentionally with one out. Betts then bounced into another inning-ending double play.
The Dodgers’ ninth-inning run came off Abner Uribe, who gave up one hit and walked three in his lone frame. Six pitchers worked for the Brewers, including Priester, who threw four shutout innings.
Milwaukee, which had the best record in baseball with a franchise-record 97 victories, went 6-0 in the regular season against the Dodgers, sweeping home-and-away three-game series.
“We knew coming into this series they play great defense, they pitch, they get the big hits when they need to,” Freeman said. “That’s just who the Brewers are.”
BREWERS CONFIDENT FREDDY PERALTA WILL DELIVER IN GAME 2 VS. DODGERS
MILWAUKEE — The Los Angeles Dodgers rode a great starting-pitching performance to a win in Game 1 of the National League Championship Series.
The Milwaukee Brewers hope ace right-hander Freddy Peralta can deliver a similar effort as they look to level the best-of-seven series in Game 2 on Tuesday.
Peralta (1-1, 4.66 ERA postseason) will be opposed by Yoshinobu Yamamoto (1-1, 2.53).
The defending champion Dodgers hung on to take the opener 2-1 on Monday after Blake Snell threw eight innings of scoreless, one-hit ball. Freddy Freeman’s sixth-inning solo homer accounted for all the scoring until the Dodgers added a run in the ninth on a bases-loaded walk.
The Brewers answered with a run in the bottom half, but they left the bases loaded when Blake Treinen fanned Brice Turang for the final out.
“That run in the top of the ninth was huge, obviously 20-20 hindsight,” Freeman said postgame. “But getting on the road in an environment and taking the first one, it’s huge. You can’t understate that at all. Just kind of how we did it in (the NL Division Series at) Philly. To get the first one, and you turn it over to Yoshi tomorrow and we’re obviously feeling pretty good.”
Peralta was 17-6 with a 2.70 ERA during the regular season, leading the National League in victories. He recorded a 1-1 record with a 3.52 ERA in five September starts, but he went past five innings just once in the month.
Peralta fired 5 2/3 innings of one-run ball in a win over the Chicago Cubs in Game 1 of the NLDS, then lost Game 4 after permitting three runs in four innings on Thursday.
“I like our chances when he’s out there,” teammate Christian Yelich said postgame Monday night. “He’s a great pitcher and gives a shot to win. So now, flush this one and get ready for tomorrow.”
Peralta is 4-2 with a 3.27 ERA in eight career regular-season starts vs. the Dodgers. He won both his starts against them this season, allowing four runs in 11 innings.
Peralta also faced the Dodgers once each as a reliever in the 2018 NLCS and in a 2020 NL wild-card series, throwing a combined four innings and yielding one run.
Yamamoto finished 12-8 with a 2.49 ERA in 30 starts during the regular season. He faced the Brewers for the first time this season, and it was the shortest outing of his two-year career. He lasted just two-thirds of an inning on July 7 in Milwaukee, allowing five runs, three earned, on four hits and two walks in a 9-1 loss.
Yamamoto has allowed five runs, three earned, in 10 2/3 innings in his two postseason starts. His last time out, he allowed three runs on six hits in four innings in an 8-2 loss to the Phillies in the NLDS on Wednesday.
Los Angeles starters have a 1.65 ERA during the postseason, having limited opponents to a .141 batting average.
“I think we’ve been saying it for about a month now going into the postseason: Our starting pitching is what has made us play better going into October,” Freeman said. “We always were talking about how we’re playing our best baseball leading up to this postseason, and it started with our pitching staff. ”
The Brewers were 6-0 in the regular season against the Dodgers, sweeping home-and-away three-game series.
Of the 17 teams that won the first two games of the NLCS under the current best-of-seven format, 14 went on to advance to the World Series.
TIGERS EXTEND MANAGER A.J. HINCH FOLLOWING ALDS DEFEAT
The Detroit Tigers extended the contract of A.J. Hinch, their manager for the past five seasons, the team announced Monday.
President of baseball operations Scott Harris confirmed the extension without disclosing terms at the club’s season-ending press conference, which followed Detroit’s elimination in the American League Division Series.
“We extended A.J. earlier in the year,” Harris said Monday. “I absolutely love working with A.J. I think he’s one of the best managers in the game. We have now proactively extended him twice because we want him to be here as long as he’s willing to be here, and I want to work with him as long as I can possibly work with him.”
Hinch is the fifth-longest tenured manager in the majors. He has led the Tigers to a .486 win percentage since being hired before the 2021 season, though the team posted a winning record and reached the divisional round in each of the past two years.
The Tigers exploded out of the gate but collapsed in the second half of 2025, blowing a lead atop the AL Central that was as large as 14 games in July and 10 games in early September. They traveled to defeat the Cleveland Guardians in the wild-card round before the Seattle Mariners edged them in 15 innings in the decisive fifth game of the ALCS.
Hinch, 51, previously managed the Houston Astros to the 2017 World Series championship and three consecutive 100-win seasons. Hinch was fired and served a year-long suspension in 2020 as part of the fallout from the Astros’ sign-stealing scandal.
“I’ve been in this chair for a long time, not just the managing chair in Detroit but across the league,” Hinch said Monday. “When you have an environment that both pushes and satisfies you, you want to be in it. And so, I was honored (to be offered an extension). I was thrilled.”

LAST-SECOND REVERSAL: BEARS FLIP ’24 SCRIPT, EDGE COMMANDERS
Jake Moody kicked a 38-yard field goal as time expired and the visiting Chicago Bears upset the Washington Commanders 25-24 on Monday night.
Moody, elevated from the practice squad Monday after Chicago ruled out Cairo Santos (quad injury), hit four of his five field-goal attempts in his first game on the Bears’ active roster.
After the teams traded punts with Washington leading 24-22 in the fourth quarter, the Bears’ Nahshon Wright recovered a Jayden Daniels fumble at the Chicago 44 with 3:07 remaining. D’Andre Swift had a 10-yard run to give the Bears a first down, and he later ran for 15 yards to the Washington 18.
Two plays later, Moody ended it, giving Chicago (3-2) its third consecutive win.
It was a measure of revenge for the Bears, who lost last season’s matchup 18-15 on a last-play Hail Mary pass from Daniels to Noah Brown.
Swift finished with 108 yards on 14 carries. Chicago quarterback Caleb Williams completed 17 of 29 passed for 252 yards and one touchdown.
Daniels threw for 211 yards on 19-of-26 passing. He had three touchdowns and one interception for Washington (3-3).
The Commanders played without injured receivers Terry McLaurin (quad) and Brown (groin/knee).
Washington, which fell behind 13-0, took a 17-16 lead when Daniels found Luke McCaffrey all alone for a 33-yard touchdown with 2:56 left in the third quarter. The score came two plays after Daniels hit Jeremy McNichols for 13 yards on fourth-and-2.
Moody’s 48-yard field-goal attempt on the first play of the fourth quarter was blocked. Daniels subsequently hit Jaylin Lane for 37 yards to the Chicago 7 and then found Zach Ertz in the back of the end zone from 6 yards out, and Washington led 24-16 with 11:27 remaining.
Sixty-one seconds later, the Bears were within 24-22. Williams hit Swift with a short pass, and Swift eluded a tackler along the sideline and raced 55 yards for a score. A pass attempt for a two-point conversion was incomplete.
Moody capped Chicago’s opening drive with a 47-yard field goal to make it 3-0.
Chicago then scored 10 points off Washington turnovers to go up 13-0 early in the second quarter.
Washington answered when Daniels found Chris Moore for a 22-yard touchdown with 9:28 left until halftime.
Matt Gay’s 53-yard field goal early in the third quarter made it 13-10.
After an illegal-formation penalty wiped out a touchdown pass, Williams was sacked before Moody booted a 41-yard field goal to make it 16-10 in the middle of the third quarter.
BIJAN ROBINSON ERUPTS FOR CAREER NIGHT AS FALCONS BEAT BILLS
ATLANTA — Bijan Robinson tied a career high with 170 rushing yards and ran for an 81-yard touchdown on Monday, helping the Atlanta Falcons post a 24-14 victory over the visiting Buffalo Bills.
Michael Penix Jr. completed 20 of 32 passes for 250 yards and a touchdown to Drake London, who hauled in 10 passes for 158 yards as the Falcons (3-2) won their second straight game.
Josh Allen threw for 180 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions for the Bills (4-2), who dropped their second straight. James Cook ran for 87 yards for Buffalo, which was outgained 443-291.
Trailing 21-7, Buffalo cut its deficit in half to open the third quarter, as Allen capped a nine-play, 73-yard drive with a 16-yard touchdown pass to Ray Davis.
After a punt, the Falcons forced Buffalo’s turnover on downs at the Atlanta 47-yard line with a minute remaining in the third.
Atlanta then squandered a golden chance to take a two-score lead, as John Parker Romo had his 37-yard field goal blocked by Greg Rousseau and recovered by Buffalo at the Bills’ 39-yard line.
Buffalo couldn’t capitalize, as it was forced to punt on its next two series before Atlanta sealed the game with a five-minute drive, finished off with Romo’s 33-yard field goal at the 1:43 mark of the fourth. DeAngelo Malone picked off Allen to punctuate the Falcons’ first win over Buffalo since 2013.
Tyler Allgeier bullied his way for a 21-yard rushing touchdown to stamp the game’s opening drive.
Allen answered with a 45-yard pass to Joshua Palmer on Buffalo’s first play, before finding Dawson Knox on a game-tying 19-yard touchdown pass.
After each team punted, the Falcons retook the lead as Penix fired a 9-yard touchdown to London on third-and-goal to give Atlanta a 14-7 lead entering the second quarter.
Following Buffalo’s second straight punt, Robinson broke off the longest rush by any player in the NFL this season. His 81-yard score extended the Falcons’ advantage to 14 with 11:09 left in the second quarter.
The Bills punted on four of their first five possessions, with their sixth ending in Allen’s interception to Dee Alford at Buffalo’s 49-yard line with 10 seconds left in the first half.
Two plays later, Penix found London for 40 yards, but the Atlanta wide receiver was pushed out at the 1-yard line as time expired, leaving the Falcons’ lead at 21-7.
TITANS FIRE COACH BRIAN CALLAHAN AFTER 4-19 RECORD AND 1-5 START TO SECOND SEASON
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The Tennessee Titans fired Brian Callahan on Monday after a 1-5 start to his second season, making him the first NFL head coach ousted this season.
Chad Brinker, the Titans’ president of football operations, said team officials had extended conversations with controlling owner Amy Adams Strunk and general manager Mike Borgonzi before meeting with Callahan on Monday morning to tell him that Tennessee was making a change.
“While we are committed to a patient and strategic plan to build a sustainable, winning football program, we have not demonstrated sufficient growth,” Brinker said in a statement. “Our players, fans, and community deserve a football team that achieves a standard we are not currently meeting, and we are committed to making the hard decisions necessary to reach and maintain that standard.”
The Titans did not immediately say who would be interim coach. They host former Tennessee coach Mike Vrabel and his New England Patriots (4-2) on Sunday.
Callahan went 4-19, which featured a 10-game skid.
He becomes just the second coach fired during the season by this franchise since relocating to Tennessee in 1997, joining Ken Whisenhunt. Whisenhunt had a 3-20 record when fired in November 2015, with a stint that also included a 10-game skid to end the 2014 season.
The Titans had said they wanted to see improvement this season with Callahan going into his second season as a first-time head coach and with a rookie quarterback in Cam Ward. Yet Callahan had to hand off play-calling duties after dropping to 0-3 and the offense struggling.
Even the change in play-caller didn’t help.
The Titans have scored only 83 points and are averaging 3.94 yards per play. Only the 2019 Jets, the 2018 Bills in Josh Allen’s rookie year, the 2009 Browns, the 2009 Raiders in JaMarcus Russell’s last season and the 2007 49ers have scored fewer than 84 points and 4 yards per play through six games in the past 20 seasons.
Of the 241 NFL coaches who have coached at least 20 games or more since the NFL-AFL merger in 1970, Callahan ranks 237th with a .174 winning percentage. The only coaches with worse winning percentages were Jim Ringo (.130), Marty Mornhinweg (.156), Chris Palmer (.156) and Rod Dowhower (.172).
The Titans knew that this would be a rebuilding year, and Brinker said at the start of training camp that improvement was the one sign they were looking for. They have played at least seven rookies in each game this season, led by Ward, the No. 1 draft pick.
Callahan was hired in January 2024 for his work with quarterbacks including Cincinnati’s Joe Burrow, also a No. 1 pick, in 2020.
But Ward is the most-sacked quarterback in the NFL, with 25 already, including a pair of games with six sacks each, following a 20-10 loss to the Raiders.
This marks the fourth time in five years that a team that picked a quarterback with the No. 1 selection fired the coach during the season.
Callahan joins Matt Eberflus (Chicago, 2024), Frank Reich (Carolina, 2023) and Urban Meyer (Jaguars, 2021) in that group. Hue Jackson also was fired by Cleveland in 2018 and former Titans coach Jeff Fisher by the Rams in 2016 in the same situation.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL NEWS
MATT RHULE SAYS HE LOVES HIS JOB AT NEBRASKA BUT DOESN’T TAMP DOWN BUZZ ABOUT PENN STATE OPENING
Matt Rhule professed his love for living and working in Nebraska and trying to return the Cornhuskers to the upper echelon of college football.
That said, he did nothing Monday to shut down speculation that he could be up for the Penn State job, which opened with Sunday’s firing of James Franklin.
Rhule’s name surfaced immediately as a front-runner because of his ties to Penn State. He was a walk-on linebacker at Penn State under Joe Paterno in the 1990s, met his wife at the school and is close friends with athletic director Pat Kraft.
Kraft hired Rhule in 2012 at Temple, where he coached for four seasons before leaving for Baylor. Rhule left Baylor after three years and was the Carolina Panthers’ coach for two-plus seasons. He came to Nebraska in December 2022, hired by former athletic director Trev Alberts.
Rhule is 17-14 in three seasons in Lincoln. The Huskers are 5-1 and entered The Associated Press poll this week at No. 25.
“This place is elite,” Rhule said at his weekly availability. “And I want to be a great father, and I want to be a great college football coach. And so I’m not going to talk a lot about job openings when they come.”
The 50-year-old Rhule is scheduled to earn $7.5 million this year on a contract that runs through 2030. If he were to resign before Jan. 1, he or his new employer would owe Nebraska $5 million.
Nebraska had gone seven seasons without a winning record before finishing 7-6 in 2024.
“I absolutely love it here,” Rhule said, “and I just want us to continue to take the steps needed for us to turn this thing into a beast and have players all across the country want to come here with the best facilities. We have elite fans.
“I’m just looking at the future, but again, I love that place (Penn State), I love Pat, I love James Franklin and am sad that came to an end. I wish him the absolute best. But I’m really happy here.”
The Huskers play at Minnesota on Friday night.

NHL ROUNDUP: RED WINGS EARN LAST-MINUTE WIN OVER LEAFS
Mason Appleton scored with 45 seconds remaining to give the visiting Detroit Red Wings their second win over the Toronto Maple Leafs in three days, 3-2 on Monday afternoon.
Appleton, who was signed as a free agent to a two-year deal this offseason, recorded his first Red Wings goal. He fired a shot from the left circle past Anthony Stolarz after Detroit squandered a two-goal lead.
James van Riemsdyk also scored his first goal for Detroit. Dylan Larkin added the other Red Wings goal while Cam Talbot stopped 38 shots.
Calle Jarnkrok scored for the third time in as many games for the Leafs. Matthew Knies added a goal and an assist, and Anthony Stolarz made 12 saves.
Avalanche 3, Sabres 1
Nathan MacKinnon scored two goals for visiting Colorado, which notched a win over Buffalo. Cale Makar added a goal and an assist for the Avalanche, who have earned points in all four of their games to start the season. Martin Necas added two assists.
Tage Thompson got his first goal of the season for the Sabres, who lost their third straight game.
Scott Wedgewood made 28 saves as he earned his third victory of the season for Colorado. Alex Lyon set aside 34 shots for Buffalo.
Lightning 4, Bruins 3
Anthony Cirelli’s two first-period goals helped visiting Tampa Bay build a three-goal lead and hold off Boston for a victory. Pontus Holmberg had a goal and an assist, Yanni Gourde added a goal, and Jonas Johansson made 30 saves for the Lightning, who shook their first 0-2-0 start under coach Jon Cooper.
Casey Mittelstadt, Jordan Harris and Morgan Geekie each scored a goal for the Bruins, who had their three-game season-opening win streak end. Boston’s Joonas Korpisalo stopped 19 shots.
The Lightning finished 5-for-5 on the penalty kill, with the last coming during Johansson’s 10-save, shutout third period which saw Tampa Bay preserve a one-goal lead.
Jets 5, Islanders 2
Morgan Barron scored early in the first period for Winnipeg, which never trailed in a win at Elmont, N.Y. Nino Niederreiter, Logan Stanley, Tanner Pearson and Mark Scheifele also scored for the Jets, while goalie Eric Comrie made 33 saves.
Jean-Gabriel Pageau and Emil Heineman scored for the Islanders, who are winless through three games. Goalie Ilya Sorokin recorded 21 saves.
In the game’s key sequence, Pageau redirected a shot by Tony DeAngelo 2:05 into the second period, cutting Winnipeg’s lead to 2-1. But Stanley responded with a goal just 14 seconds later to restore the two-goal margin.
Predators 4, Senators 1
Jonathan Marchessault scored his first two goals of the season and Nashville beat host Ottawa.
Ryan O’Reilly and Cole Smith also scored for the Predators. Juusi Saros made 31 saves.
Ridly Greig got the Senators’ lone goal and Linus Ullmark stopped 22 shots. The Predators netted two empty-net goals to pull away after Greig’s goal with 2:03 left.

COLTS FOOTBALL
COLTS PLACE BACKUP QB ANTHONY RICHARDSON (EYE) ON INJURED RESERVE
Indianapolis Colts backup quarterback Anthony Richardson has been placed on injured reserve with a broken orbital bone he sustained while getting ready for Sunday’s game against Arizona.
The injury occurred when a pole that Richardson had wrapped an elastic stretch band around snapped and hit him in the face during a warmup stretch routine, according to multiple media reports.
This left Richardson, the No. 4 overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, with severe swelling that led to temporary vision impairment, although it’s been reported that there isn’t believed to be any damage to his eye.
Richardson, 23, battled through injuries to start 15 games over his first two seasons with the Colts. He has 2,400 career passing yards with 11 passing touchdowns, 13 interceptions, 634 rushing yards and 10 rushing TDs over 17 games.
He’s been replaced this season by Daniel Jones, who’s thrown for 1,502 yards, eight touchdowns and three interceptions while leading Indianapolis to a 5-1 record and an AFC South leaad six weeks into the season.
Richardson is required to miss at least the next four games after going on IR. Rookie Riley Leonard had been serving as the Colts’ emergency third quarterback, but was promoted to the active roster Sunday and is currently the team’s backup behind Jones.
Indianapolis also announced Monday that it had signed safety Reuben Lowery off waivers from Baltimore. Lowery, an undrafted rookie, has appeared in three games and made one start for the Ravens this season, recording five tackles.
The Colts are on the road Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers (4-2).

INDIANA FOOTBALL
SKIDDING MICHIGAN STATE FACES DAUNTING CHALLENGE AT NO. 3 INDIANA
Indiana left no doubt over the weekend that it is a legitimate playoff contender. Following that statement victory on the road over then-No. 3 Oregon, the Hoosiers now seemingly get a schedule break.
They will oppose reeling Michigan State on Saturday afternoon in Bloomington, Ind.
Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza bounced back from a game-tying pick-six early in the fourth quarter at Oregon to throw a go-ahead, 8-yard touchdown pass to Elijah Sarratt.
Nico Radicic’s 22-yard field goal sealed the 30-20 win over the Ducks. Indiana (6-0, 3-0 Big Ten) vaulted to No. 3 in the rankings this week.
Now, the challenge for the Hoosiers is to not get overconfident.
“Rip off the rearview mirror, so to speak. Total focus on Michigan State,” coach Curt Cignetti said. “I think the key now is our response coming off of this game.”
Mendoza, a transfer in his first season at Indiana, already has surpassed his passing touchdown total from last season at Cal. He threw for 16 scores in 386 attempts in 2024. He has racked up 17 in 153 attempts this season while completing 71.2% of his passes.
“The quarterback is the key figure. He gets too much credit and too much blame,” Cignetti said. “You know, he overcame adversity. That (pick-six) play wasn’t all on him, but at the end of the day, the ball came off his hand.
“… You don’t go on the road and win a game like this without being able to overcome adversity and never let doubt or frustration creep in. And that was a prime example of that.”
Mendoza has been complemented by a rushing attack averaging 5.6 yards per carry with 13 touchdowns. The defense has allowed just 11.3 points per game. Oregon was limited to 267 total yards, and Ducks quarterback Dante Moore was picked off twice and sacked six times.
“This team has met every challenge up to this point, because they’ve been hungry and humble, prepared properly and put it on the field,” Cignetti said.
It was uncertain who would start at quarterback for the Spartans, as Aidan Chiles was considered questionable early in the week due to an undisclosed injury. He left in the third quarter last Saturday after taking a hard hit during a 38-13 home loss to UCLA.
If Chiles can’t go, redshirt freshman Alessio Milivojevic would get the nod. He threw a touchdown pass in the fourth quarter after Chiles was sidelined.
“(Milivojevic) showed some good signs,” coach Jonathan Smith said. “We do have confidence in his capabilities and his preparation.”
The Spartans (3-3, 0-3) have lost three straight, all in conference, while giving up 121 points. The pressure from alumni and fans on Smith, who is in his second year in the program, has increased.
“Definitely, I have a greater awareness when things are out there, whether they’re talking about me particularly or things around the program,” Smith said.
A game against the undefeated Hoosiers couldn’t have come at a worse time for Michigan State. Indiana clobbered the Spartans 47-10 in East Lansing, Mich., last season.
Smith and his staff met with his team on Sunday after the UCLA debacle.
“Let’s face it — six games in, 3-3 and coming off a loss that was not good enough, obviously. We leaned on the leadership of this team,” he said. “The discussions were of what we want this thing to look like looking forward and any potential issues we might have.”

INDIANA PACERS
GAME REWIND: PACERS 108, SPURS 124 (PRESEASON)
Bennedict Mathurin looks ready for the regular season. The fourth-year guard erupted for 31 points in just 23 minutes in Monday’s preseason contest against the San Antonio Spurs at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.
Mathurin, who is set to move into the starting lineup for the 2025-26 campaign with Tyrese Haliburton sidelined with a torn Achilles, scored 27 points and hit all nine of his shots — including four 3-pointers — in the first half alone. He finished the night 11-for-12 from the field, 4-for-4 from beyond the arc, and 5-for-5 from the free throw line.
While Mathurin’s performance was a bright spot, the Pacers (2-1) dropped a game for the first time this preseason, falling to the Spurs (4-0), 124-108.
Mathurin carried the Indiana offense early on Monday, scoring 12 of the Pacers’ first 14 points. The fourth-year guard knocked down three 3-pointers and converted an old-fashioned three-point play over the first 4:18 of the contest.
The Pacers made seven threes as a team in the first quarter, but the Spurs shot 60.9 percent from the field in the opening frame and took a 34-30 lead into the second quarter.
Mathurin scored 13 more points in the ensuing frame and All-Star forward Pascal Siakam tallied 12, but San Antonio maintained its lead all the way until halftime.
The Spurs built the lead up as high as 10 points thanks in no small part to 7-foot-5 center Victor Wembanyama, who tallied 19 points, 10 rebounds, three assists, and three steals in the first half.
Mathurin helped close the gap before the break, hitting a deep three just before the buzzer to cut the deficit to 69-66 entering the intermission.
“He wasn’t missing,” Siakam said of Mathurin’s offensive performance. “Anything he threw up there was going in. Just playing fast, taking the open shot and just playing within the offense. It wasn’t a lot of like wasted dribbles, it was a lot of just getting into it, shooting the open shots, and just continuing to play how we play.”
The Pacers quickly surged ahead in the third quarter. After Siakam hit a three to tie the game at 69, Wembanyama answered with a bucket before Indiana reeled off 11 unanswered points (five from Andrew Nembhard and four from Mathurin) to take the lead.
The Spurs came roaring back, however, with a 21-4 run over the next five minutes of action, flipping a nine-point deficit into an eight-point advantage.
The visitors led 104-95 entering the fourth quarter. The Pacers rested their starters for the entirety of the final frame and the Spurs never relinquished their lead.
Siakam finished the night with 17 points on 7-of-10 shooting (3-of-5 from 3-point range), three rebounds, and three assists. Nembhard tallied 11 points and eight assists, while third-year forward Jarace Walker scored 12 points off the bench.
Veteran point guard Cameron Payne, who signed with Indiana late last week after injuries to T.J. McConnell and Delon Wright, had 10 points and two assists in 17 minutes off the bench.
Wembanyama played 25 minutes for the Spurs and finished with 27 points, 11 rebounds, four assists, and three steals. Luke Kornet added 16 points and seven rebounds, while Stephon Castle and Keldon Johnson tallied 14 points apiece.
The Pacers and Spurs will play again on Friday in San Antonio in the final preseason contest for both teams.
Inside the Numbers
The Pacers shot 46.9 percent from the field and went 19-for-41 (46.3 percent) from 3-point range.
Mathurin’s 31 points would have tied for his fifth-highest total in a regular season game. His career high is 38 points, set on Nov. 10 of last season against New York.
That Pacers committed 24 turnovers to San Antonio’s 17.
The Spurs outscored Indiana 50-28 in the paint.
All five Indiana starters had a positive plus/minus, but all 10 Pacers reserves that saw the floor on Monday had a negative plus/minus.
You Can Quote Me On That
“He took the shots that were the right shots. The game came to him and he read the game very, very well.” -Pacers head coach Carlisle on Mathurin’s efficient scoring night
“I think he was efficient in his touches in terms of not holding the ball. He was just quick to the point, whether it was a three or at the rim being aggressive, drawing fouls. He did a good job being efficient.” -Nembhard on Mathurin
“The starters are getting some chemistry. They’re doing some good things. They’re playing fast. They have the ability to guard.” -Carlisle on the starting unit’s strong play
“We’ve been around each other for a little bit so we kind of know each other’s strengths. We’re just going to continue to play through that…We’ve just got to trust each other.” -Siakam on the starting five’s chemistry
“Out of the first two games, we did a solid job of just moving and popping [the ball].” -Nembhard on the starters’ chemistry
“Just looking for chemistry, who can play well together. Right now, we’re fouling too much. That’s leading to problems. We’ve got to play a cleaner game.” -Carlisle on his evaluation of the battle for minutes at the center position
“We’ve got to figure it out…We’ve just got to figure out how we flow and who to put out there, sometimes we went small. I think that position…all of them have to work through it…My job is just to try to help them as much as I can, making the game simple for them. And they’ve got to keep the game simple – do the hard things as a big, be a presence out there, and I think the rest is going to come.” -Siakam on building chemistry with the different centers on the roster
“He presents a different kind of challenge. This is a great opportunity for our centers to have to navigate a different style of a unicorn-type player.” -Carlisle on getting to face Wembanyama again on Friday
“You’re not going to be able to just turn it on. You’ve got to build good habits. All these games are important because once we get to the 23rd, it’s the first game and there’s no looking back.” -Siakam on learning from the preseason
Stat of the Night
Mathurin scored 27 points in the first half alone, going 9-for-9 from the field, 4-for-4 from the 3-point range, and 5-for-5 from the free throw line.

INDIANA VOLLEYBALL
VOLLEYBALL CENTRAL: PURDUE
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. – One of the sport’s biggest rivalries will take center stage on Thursday (Oct. 16) evening in Indianapolis. The Indiana volleyball team (14-2, 5-1 B1G) will meet longtime rival Purdue in the battle for the Monon Spike at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. First serve will come at 7 p.m. with Jack Kizer and Emily Ehman on the call for the Big Ten Network.
The Hoosiers are off to one of the best starts in program history. They won the first five matches in conference play and started 5-0 in Big Ten action for the first time in the existence of the program. As of the latest RPI release (Oct. 13), IU already owns five top-50 RPI wins this year. It will still have seven opportunities – including Thursday against Purdue – to pick up more premier victories.
IU’s offense has been a strong part of its early success this season. It is sixth nationally and third in the Big Ten in team hitting percentage (.299). All three of IU’s primary attackers are averaging at least 3.40 kills per set. It is the only school in the conference with multiple players averaging 3.40 kills per set or more. Freshman setter Teodora Kričković leads all NCAA freshmen with 10.76 assists per set.
The next challenge on the schedule is a Purdue team that has dominated the series under head coach Dave Shondell. IU has won the Monon Spike, contested annually at alternating home sites, just twice since 2007. The Hoosiers last won the game in 2023 behind a near triple-double from former setter Camryn Haworth.
Thursday’s game begins a stretch of four-straight home matches for the Hoosiers. After playing five of its first six games on the road, IU will close the season with nine of its final 14 matches at home. Eight of those will come at Wilkinson Hall – beginning with a Sunday (Oct. 19) tilt vs. Ohio State in Bloomington.
Gameday Info
vs. #12 Purdue (Thursday, October 16th – 7 p.m.)
Live Video: bit.ly/44wik9K
Live Stats: bit.ly/3IV9YCs
Stat and Trends
• The Hoosiers have used a lot of their freshman talent so far this season. Six of IU’s seven freshmen have played at least 11 matches this season. Five of those players have appeared in every game this season including outside hitter Jaidyn Jager and libero Audrey Jackson.
• IU’s block has been extremely potent this season. On 10 different occasions this year, IU has provided at least eight blocks in a single match. Seven of those contests have been double-digit efforts from head coach Steve Aird’s crew. Six different players have 29-or-more rejections this season.
Notable
A B1G START: Indiana began the conference slate at 5-0 before dropping its first contest at Michigan State. It was the best start to Big Ten play in program history and has included four road victories. IU wrapped up a four-match road swing by winning three contests, including road wins at No. 17 USC and No. 24 UCLA.
CLOSING IN ON 1K: Senior opposite hitter Avry Tatum will have a crack at a massive milestone in her college career this week. She is just 21 kills away from reaching 1,000 career kills. She will have opportunities against Purdue and Ohio State this week. Sunday will likely be her 100th career appearance in college.
HOME ACTION: IU played five of its first six Big Ten games on the road. The Hoosiers will end with nine home contests in the final 14 matches of the regular season. IU is giving up a true home match to play Thursday’s game at Gainbridge Fieldhouse but will have eight of the final 13 matches of the year at Wilkinson Hall.
TIME TO BOUNCE BACK: The Hoosiers will have a chance to reset after a tough sweep at the hands of Michigan State on October 12th. The last time IU lost a match, it rattled off six-straight wins to follow. It will get the first crack at Purdue this season to open up a stretch of four-straight matches in the state of Indiana.
ANOTHER BIG OPPORTUNITY: IU will search for its third ranked win of the season on Thursday evening in Indianapolis. The last time the Hoosiers won at least three games against top-25 opponents in the same year – they went to the NCAA Tournament (5 – 2010). IU has 14 all-time wins against top-15 opposition.
JAGER LEADS THE CHARGE: Freshman outside hitter Jaidyn Jager has been a fantastic addition to the IU program this year. She leads all Big Ten freshmen with 3.40 kills per set and will have a chance to be the league’s Freshman of the Year. She has 10+ kills in 12 of IU’s 16 matches this season.
FLINGING THE ROCK: Freshman setter Teodora Kričković has settled in nicely to her role with the team this year. She is second in the conference in assists per set (10.76) and is running a very fast offense. The Hoosiers have hit .250 or better in 13 of the 16 contests this year.
BIG HOOSIER BLOCK: The Hoosiers become one of the best blocking teams in the conference behind the development of sophomore middle blocker Ella Boersema. IU is second in the conference as a team with 2.80 blocks per set. Boersema leads all athletes in the conference (min. 15 sets played) with 1.45 blocks per set.
CHAR DEBUTS: Freshman outside hitter Charlotte Vinson made her collegiate debut on Sunday at Michigan State, completing a long journey back to the court. She was on life support in spring of 2024 with toxic shock syndrome but has fully recovered and is expected to be a big part of IU’s future plans.
BALANCED OFFENSE: IU is the only team with multiple players averaging 3.40 kills per set this year in the Big Ten. In fact, no other team has more than one. However, the Hoosiers have all three pin hitters providing 3.40 or more kills. Senior outside hitter Candela Alonso-Corcelles leads with 3.58 kills per set.
BIG POINTS: The Hoosiers are top-15 nationally in both blocks per set (2.80) and team hitting percentage (.299). On top of that, IU provides 13.82 kills per set which is 26th nationally and fourth in the Big Ten. IU’s .299 team hitting percentage is on track to be a single-season program record.
ANOTHER MARUQEE WIN: As of the RPI release on Oct. 13, IU currently is No. 10 in the country. It has five top-50 RPI wins on the season – four of those away from home. The only two losses IU has taken are against top-50 programs. A win over No. 12 Purdue would add another signature win to the resume.
Scouting the Opponent
Purdue (13-3, 3-3 B1G)
• The Boilermakers were hit hard by the transfer portal but have responded nicely in the 23rd season under Dave Shondell – the winningest coach in program history. Purdue is off to a 13-3 start and has wins over SMU, Kansas, USC and UCLA.
• Outside hitter Kenna Wollard is enjoying an All-American caliber season. She is averaging 4.75 kills per set and is hitting .266 as a six-rotation player. She’s also picking up 1.75 digs per set and has 27 blocks. She is supplemented by veteran hitters Akasha Anderson (2.43 kills per set) and Grace Heaney (2.97 kills per set).
• Setter Taylor Anderson is running the show in her third season. She is third in the Big Ten with 10.56 assists per set. Libero Ryan McAleer is enjoying a great season in the back row. She’s averaging 3.64 digs per set and leads a Purdue team that provides 13.26 digs per set.
Inside the Series
Purdue
• The Boilermakers have been the premier team in the state since Dave Shondell took over the program in 2023. He is 40-4 against the Hoosiers since taking charge of the Purdue program.
• Head coach Steve Aird has had some close calls against Purdue during his time at Indiana. Before breaking through and winning in 2023, he had lost four times in five sets. His first three games against Purdue while at IU were five-set losses.
• All-time, Purdue leads the series at 79-36. The Hoosiers have won the Monon Spike just twice (2007, 2023) since 2003. This will be the first contest played at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.

PURDUE MEN’S BASKETBALL
BOILER UP! PURDUE TOPS PRESEASON AP TOP 25 FOR FIRST TIME, AHEAD OF HOUSTON, REIGNING CHAMP FLORIDA
Purdue is No. 1 in the preseason Associated Press Top 25 college basketball poll for the first time.
The Boilermakers earned 35 of 61 first-place votes to top Monday’s poll to begin the 2025-26 season. That put Matt Painter’s squad ahead of the two teams that played in last year’s NCAA title game, with runner-up Houston at No. 2 and reigning champion Florida at No. 3.
“We are obviously excited to get the season going and being ranked No. 1 in the preseason is a great indicator of what we feel this team can accomplish,” Painter said. “But the goal is to be No. 1 at the end of the year. We’re thrilled that people think this highly of our team, but there is a long ways to go and a lot of work to do to reach that goal in April.”
Purdue started a year ranked as high as No. 2 once before, in 1987-88 under Gene Keady.
It’s another milestone for Painter, the former Keady player who has built his own successful program that is still looking for its NCAA title breakthrough as he enters his 21st season. Purdue had never been ranked No. 1 in any AP poll before the 2021-22 season, which marked the first of three straight seasons in which the Boilermakers have reached the top. The last was during the 2023-24 season behind two-time AP national player of the year Zach Edey in a run all the way to the national title game.
The Boilermakers reached last year’s Sweet 16 before falling to Houston on a last-second basket, but return a first-team AP All-American in point guard Braden Smith, scoring leader Trey Kaufman-Renn (20.1) and veteran guard Fletcher Loyer.
The top tier
Kelvin Sampson’s Cougars earned 16 first-place votes to match the program’s best-ever preseason AP ranking after last year’s finals run. The other No. 2 appearance was by the 1967-68 team led by Elvin Hayes.
Todd Golden’s Gators earned eight first-place votes to start this year with their highest preseason ranking since the last time they entered a year as reigning champions in 2006-07, the start of a run to a second straight title.
UConn was next at No. 4 and earned the remaining two first-place votes. St. John’s was fifth, with Rick Pitino’s Red Storm surpassing the program’s previous best ranking in a preseason AP poll (No. 7 in 1984-85).
Duke was next at No. 6, followed by Michigan, BYU — which landed the nation’s No. 1 recruit in A.J. Dybantsa — Kentucky and Texas Tech to round out the top 10.
Quick transitions
It hasn’t taken long for Pat Kelsey to get Louisville back among the national elite, with the Cardinals checking in at No. 11 after a 27-win season to start his tenure. The Cardinals were 12-52 in the two seasons before his arrival.
Louisville is one of five programs with a second-year coach in the preseason poll, joining Michigan, BYU, Kentucky and No. 14 Arkansas with John Calipari.
Jayhawks lower
Kansas checked in at No. 19, the lowest preseason rank for Bill Self’s Jayhawks since starting at No. 24 in the 2008-09 season as the reigning national champion. Kansas had been ranked outside the top 10 only once since that year (No. 13 in 2011-12) while starting at No. 1 in 2019-20 as well as each of the last two seasons in that stretch.
Pearl’s debut
Auburn opens at No. 20 as it enters its first season since the unexpected retirement of coach Bruce Pearl following last year’s Final Four run.
Pearl stepped aside last month after 11 seasons, triggering a transition to his 38-year-old son Steven, who climbed his father’s staff through the elder Pearl’s Auburn tenure but has never been a head coach nor coached elsewhere in college.
Conference watch
The Southeastern Conference, Big Ten and Big 12 each had six ranked teams to make up 72% of the field. The Atlantic Coast Conference and Big East were next with three each, while the West Coast Conference had one with No. 21 Gonzaga. The Big 12 was the only league of that group to have three top-10 teams.
Watch list
Will Wade’s arrival at N.C. State and subsequent roster shakeup has the Wolfpack as the first team outside the poll, sitting just three points behind 25th-ranked rival North Carolina from the ACC. Oregon is lurking close behind entering its 16th year under Dana Altman.

NOTRE DAME FOOTBALL
NO. 13 NOTRE DAME LOSES CENTER CRAIG TO KNEE INJURY AS TALKS CONTINUE TO EXTEND SOUTHERN CAL SERIES
SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) — No. 13 Notre Dame has lost starting center Ashton Craig for the rest of this season because of a knee injury, coach Marcus Freeman announced Monday as the team prepares for its annual rivalry with Southern California.
Craig suffered the injury during a 36-7 victory over N.C. State last weekend. Notre Dame (4-2) has won four straight, and Craig started each of those six games.
“Your thoughts go to the young man who worked so hard to get back from last year, to get himself back into the position he was in this year,” Freeman said. “He was playing extremely well for us, and just unfortunate for him. He’s in great spirits to get healed up and look forward to returning next year. He’ll be ready to go, he has the right mindset.”
The Fighting Irish face the 20th-ranked Trojans (5-1) on Saturday in the second-to-last game in the series under the current contract between the schools. Freeman said negotiations to extend the rivalry are ongoing.
Without Craig, Notre Dame is likely to start Joe Otting, a second-year player out of Topeka, Kansas. He was listed No. 2 behind Craig on the most recent depth chart. Freeman also mentioned Cam Herron, a first-year player from Indianapolis, as potentially helping fill the void.
Regardless, Freeman said he is confident they can find a solution. And he hopes the annual game with Southern California can remain a tradition for Notre Dame.
“Hopefully, we can continue this great rivalry,” Freeman said. “Right now, obviously, my focus is this one that we have and the only one that’s guaranteed and put everything into this one. But they know the head coach of this football program desires to continue this rivalry, and it’s not just because I’m at Notre Dame. It’s because I think it’s great for college football.”

BALL STATE FOOTBALL
UREMOVICH, CARDINALS TURN FOCUS TO HOMECOMING TEST AGAINST AKRON
MUNCIE, Ind. – Following Saturday’s road loss at Western Michigan, Ball State football turns its focus to rebounding at home as it prepares to face Akron this weekend inside Scheumann Stadium for the Cardinals’ 98th homecoming game. Head coach Mike Uremovich, linebacker Joey Stemler and quarterback Kiael Kelly met with the media Monday morning ahead of the Oct. 18 matchup.
After falling to the Broncos this past weekend, Uremovich emphasized internal reflection for both coaches and players.
“Whatever’s on the film is a reflection of me and our staff,” Uremovich said. “It starts with us as a staff, putting our guys in the best position to execute. When we go out and don’t play very well, the first thing we’ve got to do is look in the mirror and see what we can do better as coaches.”
The theme of accountability carried into the players’ messages. Stemler, one of the team’s leading defensive standouts, said the defense’s primary goal is to improve communication and cohesion.
“Being the leader of the defense, I take full responsibility,” Stemler said. “We need to play physical no matter what until the whistle blows. We know we’ll get it fixed.”
Kelly echoed that leadership mindset on offense.
“The team goes as far as the people at the top will go,” Kelly said. “We need to look in the mirror and see what we can do better and find different ways to approach.”
Kelly also noted that the Cardinals’ offensive approach will rely on renewed aggression and energy.
“We’ve just got to be more physical,” he said. “We’ve got to be the aggressors. We’ve got to fight back and fight first, not waiting to get punched in the mouth.”
Ball State returns to Scheumann Stadium for its Homecoming matchup against Akron on Saturday, with kickoff set for 3:30 p.m. ET.

WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind. – Julian Dugan shot a team-best 70-75-145 on the opening day of the Purdue Fall Invitational on Monday (Oct. 13) to lead the Purdue Fort Wayne men’s golf team.
Dugan’s opening round featured five birdies and 11 pars. After a bogey on hole one, he was 4-under over the next 11 holes with birdies on two, six, seven and 12. He finished the first round with a birdie on 15. In round two, he birdied six and seven again, the former of which is a 598-yard sweeping par-5 around a marsh. Dugan’s 145 put him in 17th place.
Justin Hicks shot 78-73-151 for 50th place. The sophomore turned in 14 pars in round one, including the last five of the round. In his second trip through the tough Kampen-Cosler course, Hicks birdied four holes: the 17th, first, seventh and ninth.
Nick Bellush turned in a 74-78-152, which was good for 55th place. He birdied his second hole of the day, the 392-yard No. 1. He had 14 pars to go with his birdie, nothing worse than a bogey in round one. In the afternoon, Bellush had birdies on eight and 15. His second round was highlighted by a seven-hole bogey-free stretch with the birdie on eight in the middle.
Two shots behind Bellush, Nick Holder shot 76-78-154. Holder birdied holes one and six in his first trip through the course, the latter of which sparked a stretch of six pars in a row.

VALPO MEN’S GOLF
BEACONS TEE OFF INSTATE TOURNEY IN WEST LAFAYETTE
Junior Adam Melliere (Zionsville, Ind. / Zionsville) led the Valparaiso University men’s golf team over the first 36 holes of the Purdue Fall Invitational, which began on Monday at the par-72, 7465-yard Kampen-Cosler Golf Course in West Lafayette, Ind. All five players either matched or improved their Round-1 score in the afternoon round.
How It Happened
Melliere finished the day at 148 (+4) to lead the squad, climbing 20 spots on the player leaderboard during the second round and finishing the day tied for 35th of 78. He improved from a 5-over 77 in Round 1 to a 1-under 71 in Round 2, which marked a season low. Melliere’s best stretch of golf on Monday came over his final 10 holes, when he shot five under including a red-hot burst where he birdied four of the final five holes. Melliere was at +4 five holes into Round 2 before playing bogey-free over his last 13 holes of the day.
Like Melliere, sophomore Rodrigo Garcia Teruel (Puebla, Mexico / Modern Academy) improved by six strokes from Round 1 to Round 2. He finished the day at 154 (t-62) after using 74 (+2) strokes in his second round.
Sophomore Rob Politza (Lemont, Ill. / Lemont Township) had the team’s largest improvement in Round 2, shaving seven strokes off his opening-round score with a 75 (+3). He ranks third on the team through two rounds at 157. He was at even par for the second round with five holes remaining.
The team score improved from 317 (+29) to 300 (+12) in Round 2, with the Beacons 15th on the team leaderboard (617) with 18 holes to go. The host Boilermakers lead the tournament at 559, led by Supapon Amornchaichan, who is atop the player leaderboard at 136.
In addition to the 54-hole team tournament, Purdue is hosting a separate 36-hole tournament for individuals not part of the team lineup this week. The four Beacons not playing in the team event golfed 18 holes on Monday, led by senior Owen Sander (Carmel, Ind. / Carmel) with a 73 (+2). He is tied for sixth in the individual tournament.
Thoughts from Head Coach Dave Gring
“Our team has had struggles in a couple primary areas this fall season, and we weren’t able to shake them during either round today. The first area is with controlling the clubface during shots and we continue to have some pretty big misses on holes with water hazards, out of bounds and even from the middle of the fairway. We had the equivalent of 11 double bogeys in the first round and nine double bogeys in the second round. Those big misses and high scores are really hurting our team’s scoring. The second area is simply making more putts. We only had six birdies in the first round and we had 12 in the second round. We have to improve our proximity to the hole with our approach shots and get better at reading greens and making more putts.”
“Our bright spot today was with Adam Melliere and his finish to the 36-hole day. Adam shot +5 in the first round and he was four over after the first five holes of the second round. He persevered through the slow start to the second round, stayed resilient and played the last thirteen holes with no bogeys at five under par. He made birdie on four of his last five holes to finish the round at -1.”
Up Next
The Beacons will close out the Purdue Fall Invitational at Kampen Course in West Lafayette, Ind. with the final round on Tuesday. A link to live scoring via Clippd is available on ValpoAthletics.com.
