Top-10 Showdown In Autzen
The eyes of college football will once again be on Oregon this week as the No. 3 Ducks return from their bye week to host No. 7 Indiana in Autzen Stadium. It will be the second top-10 showdown in as many games for Oregon, which won a double-overtime thriller at then-No. 3 Penn State on Sept. 27. Oregon and Indiana both enter Week 7 at 5-0 overall and 2-0 in Big Ten play, and will square off for the first time since the Hoosiers beat the Ducks in Eugene in 2004. Oregon will also play at the site of ESPN’s “College GameDay” pregame show for the second straight game as the show makes it 13th all-time appearance in Eugene. The Ducks are 20-13 all-time and 9-3 at home when featured by “College GameDay,” and Autzen Stadium will host a top-10 matchup for the eighth time in stadium history.
A Win Would…
» Be Oregon’s second straight over a top-10 team, 36th all-time and 17th inside Autzen Stadium.
» Extend the nation’s longest active regular-season winning streak to 24 games, and the nation’s longest active home winning streak to 19 games.
» Make Oregon 6-0 to start the season for the second year in a row and fifth time since 2010.
» Improve UO to 12-0 all-time in Big Ten play.
Ducks Win Top-10 Tilt In Double OT
In what HC Dan Lanning called “the best game I’ve ever been a part of,” the Ducks pulled out a thrilling 30-24 win in double-overtime at then-No. 3 Penn State two weeks ago to keep all of their biggest dreams very much alive. After a touchdown pass from QB Dante Moore to TE Jamari Johnson forced a second overtime, Moore hit WR Gary Bryant Jr. for a touchdown on the first play of the second OT before DB Dillon Thieneman iced the game on the next play with his first interception as a Duck. Oregon responded after Penn State came back from a 17-3 deficit in the fourth quarter, following touchdowns from true freshmen running backs Dierre Hill Jr. and Jordon Davison. ILB Bryce Boettcher led the defense with a career-high 13 tackles, and Moore threw for 248 yards and three scores on a career-high 29 completions. It was the eighth top-three win in program history, and first on the road since 2021.
23 Straight Regular-Season Wins
Oregon will put the nation’s longest regular-season winning streak on the line this week against No. 7 Indiana after pushing it to 23 straight games with its thrilling double-overtime win at Penn State in Week 5. The Ducks have not lost in the regular season since a 36-33 loss at No. 7 Washington on Oct. 14, 2023. It is the longest regular-season win streak in program history, with the previous long being a 15-game streak from the final three regular-season games of 2009 through the 2010 regular season. Throughout the streak, Oregon is averaging 39.5 points per game while allowing just 15.3 points per contest. The Ducks have scored at least 30 points in 21 of the 23 games and have allowed 14 points or less 14 times.
Home Cookin’
Oregon has been one of the most dominant teams in the nation at home over the last decade-plus, and the Ducks put together a perfect 7-0 home slate for the second year in a row in 2024. It was Oregon’s fifth undefeated regular season at home since 2019 and 12th in program history, and the Ducks’ wins over Montana State, Oklahoma State and Oregon State to open 2025 extended their home winning streak to 18 games dating back to the 2022 season, the longest active home winning streak in the nation and fifth-longest home winning streak in program history. Oregon is 41-1 (.976) at home since an overtime loss to Stanford on Sept. 22, 2018, a span that included 23 straight home wins to match the longest home win streak in program history. UO is 50-3 (.943) at home since the start of the 2017 season, boasting the nation’s third-best win percentage and tied for fifth-most wins during that time.
Ducks Outlast Nittany Lions In Double OT
The game lived up to the hype, and Oregon’s biggest dreams remained very much alive as well. A touchdown for the Ducks in double overtime followed by an interception of Penn State clinched a win for the UO football team in a battle of top-10 teams at Beaver Stadium on Sept. 27. Playing in front of the biggest crowd ever to watch a UO football game, a frenzied “white out” of 111,015 Nittany Lions fans, the No. 6 Ducks silenced them all when DB Dillon Thieneman picked off Drew Allar on No. 3 Penn State’s first play of double overtime for a 30-24 Oregon victory. The rematch of the 2024 Big Ten Championship Game saw the Ducks top the Nittany Lions again, earning the eighth top-three victory in program history and extending the nation’s longest active road winning streak to nine games. The victory required some fortitude from the Ducks, who took a 17-3 lead early in the fourth quarter and saw Penn State lean on its rushing attack to tie it up with 30 seconds left in regulation. The two teams traded touchdowns in the first overtime, Oregon scored in the second but didn’t convert the mandatory 2-point try, and Thieneman came through to deny the Nittany Lions another comeback. QB Dante Moore finished the game 29-of-39 for 248 yards and three touchdowns, including both of Oregon’s overtime scores. His shovel pass to TE Jamari Johnson allowed the Ducks to match Penn State’s touchdown in the first overtime, and WR Gary Bryant Jr. followed with a 25-yard scoring reception on the first UO play of the second OT. It was the first overtime game as a head coach for Dan Lanning and Oregon’s first overtime contest since an OT loss at Stanford on Oct. 2, 2021. It marked UO’s first overtime win since Oct. 13, 2018, vs. Washington, and first on the road since a three-overtime thriller at Arizona State on Oct. 29, 2015.
Still Perfect In Big Ten Play
Oregon’s win at Penn State in Week 5 kept the Ducks perfect all-time in Big Ten play at 11-0. The Ducks ran the table in their inaugural year in the Big Ten last season, going 9-0 in conference play before defeating Penn State in the Big Ten Championship Game to claim the league title. Oregon has opened Big Ten play in 2025 with a pair of road wins over Northwestern and Penn State and will put its perfect Big Ten record on the line against Indiana in its 2025 Big Ten home opener.
Scoring At Will
Oregon’s offense has been among the most dominant in the nation since HC Dan Lanning took over in 2022, and the Ducks have kept up that reputation early on in 2025. Oregon followed up its 59-point output vs. Montana State in the season opener with a 69-point explosion against Oklahoma State in Week 2, scoring 50-plus points in back-to-back games for the first time under Lanning and first time since the first two games of 2018. Outside of an end-of-game kneel down in the season opener, Oregon scored touchdowns on 16 of its first 21 drives to begin 2025, with nine offensive touchdowns against Montana State and eight against Oklahoma State. The Ducks have scored at least 30 points in all five games this season after their 30-24, double-overtime win at Penn State, their 30th 30-plus point performance in their last 33 contests since the start of 2023.
» Oregon is one of seven schools with multiple games of 59-plus points this season, and one of 12 to have scored at least 30 points at least five times.
» UO is No. 6 nationally with 46.6 points per game; one of seven schools averaging at least 45.0 PPG.
» Oregon is tied for No. 6 nationally with 31 total touchdowns scored; Vanderbilt leads the FBS with 35.
» The Ducks have scored points on all 23 of their red-zone opportunities, second-most among teams scoring on 100 percent of chances, while coming away with 19 touchdowns.
Incredible Balance
You couldn’t ask for a more balanced offense than what Oregon has produced through five games. After being perfectly balanced in the season opener with 253 yards both rushing and passing, the Ducks racked up 319 passing yards and 312 rushing yards vs. Oklahoma State. It was the first time since the 2023 season opener vs. Portland State that Oregon had at least 300 yards both rushing and passing in the same game, and the Ducks are one of only nine FBS schools to achieve that feat so far this season. The Ducks nearly reached that mark again in the nonconference final vs. Oregon State, passing for 305 yards and rushing for 280, before logging 248 yards passing and 176 rushing at Penn State. Oregon is one of only four schools (Florida State, Indiana, Old Dominion) to have surpassed 250 yards both passing and rushing three times this season.
» UO is ninth nationally in total yards per game (503.8) and eighth in total yards per play (7.47).
» Oregon ranks 11th nationally in rushing yards per game (239.40) and 40th in passing yards per game (264.4).
» Oregon’s 29 offensive touchdowns have come from 10 different players; tied for 15th in rushing touchdowns (15).
Explosive Ducks
Oregon was generating chunk plays at will in Week 2 vs. Oklahoma State, racking up 10 plays of at least 20 yards as well as five plays of 40-plus yards and four of at least 50. The Ducks had back-to-back touchdowns of 50-plus yards in the opening quarter, as RB Noah Whittington broke loose for a 59-yard TD run and QB Dante Moore found WR Dakorien Moore for a 65-yard touchdown pass. Oregon produced five plays of 20-plus yards in Week 3 at Northwestern, headlined by a 66-yard touchdown run by RB Dierre Hill Jr. that was Oregon’s longest rush since the 2022 Holiday Bowl, and then erupted for 10 more in Week 4 against Oregon State. On the season, Oregon is tied for fourth nationally in plays of 20-plus yards (37) while also tying for seventh in plays of 50-plus yards (6).
Dante Delivers In Top-10 Showdown
Quarterback Dante Moore rose to the occasion in Oregon’s thrilling double-overtime win at No. 3 Penn State on Sept. 27, staying calm in front of the biggest crowd ever to watch the Ducks play (111,015) and throwing two touchdowns in the overtime periods to lead UO to victory. Moore completed a career-high 29 passes on 39 attempts for 248 yards and three touchdowns, including a crucial connection with TE Jamari Johnson on fourth down for a touchdown to force a second overtime and then a 25-yard strike on the next play to WR Gary Bryant Jr. Moore was selected as the Big Ten Co-Offensive Player of the Week for his performance. Moore has been terrific through five games as Oregon’s starter, completing 100-of-134 passes for 1,210 yards and 14 touchdowns with just one interception.
Thunder And Lightning
The Ducks’ offense has heavily featured a pair of true freshmen in RB Dierre Hill Jr. and RB Jordon Davison, who OC Will Stein has given the nickname “Thunder and Lightning.” Hill has been a dyanmic playmaker for Oregon, leading the team with 270 rushing yards on just 26 carries (10.4 YPC) while rushing for a pair of touchdowns, and Davison has provided the thump in short-yardage and goal-line situations with a team-high seven rushing touchdowns. The freshmen scored Oregon’s first two touchdowns at Penn State in Week 5, with Hill logging his first career receiving touchdown on an eight-yard pass in the third quarter before Davison rushed for an eight-yard touchdown early in the fourth quarter.
» Davison is tied for the FBS lead among freshmen with seven rushing touchdowns while tying for seventh nationally overall.
» Davison has rushed for a touchdown in all five games, including three in his collegiate debut vs. Montana State.
» Davison became the first UO true freshman to run for three TDs in a season opener.
» Davison joined Royce Freeman (4, 10/18/14 vs. Washington) as the only UO true freshman to rush for three-plus TDs in a game.
» Hill ranks second nationally with 10.38 yards per rush; one of just two players (Jaden Nixon, UCF) averaging 10.00+ yards per carry.
» Hill led Oregon in rushing at Northwestern (94 yards, TD) and at Penn State (82 yards).
» Hill broke loose for a 66-yard TD run at Northwestern, the longest run by a Duck this season and fourth-longest by a FBS freshman.
Loaded Running Back Room
Hill and Davison are joined in the Oregon running back by a talented group of returners, forming arguably the nation’s deepest group in the backfield. RB Noah Whittington, in his fourth year at Oregon and sixth in college football, has started all three games he has played, and junior RB Jayden Limar has also earned the first three starts of his career. Limar leads the Ducks with 39 carries through five games, scoring three touchdowns while averaging 5.9 yards per carry. Whittington has averaged 8.8 yards per atempt with 21 rushes for 184 yards and two touchdowns, returning from a two-game absence to rush seven times for 25 yards at Penn State.
We’ll Have Some Moore
The Moore-to-Moore connection has been on full display early in 2025 as QB Dante Moore has developed a quick connection with true freshman WR Dakorien Moore. A five-star recruit, Moore has wasted no time while starting each of the first five games for the Ducks and leading the team with 19 receptions for 296 yards while catching two touchdown passes. He became the first UO true freshman receiver to start a season opener since Josh Delgado in 2019, catching three passes for 26 yards in his debut and also making highlights with a tremendous block on a touchdown by WR Gary Bryant Jr. Moore broke out in Week 2 against Oklahoma State, scoring his first career touchdown on a 65-yard reception and then getting loose for a 25-yard touchdown run. Moore became the first UO receiver since Jaylon Redd in 2019 and just the fifth since 1996 to have both a receiving and rushing touchdown in the same game, and he is one of just 11 FBS wide receivers to do so in a game this season. The freshman provided highlights once again in Week 4 vs. Oregon State with three catches for 63 yards and a score, opening the scoring with a 23-yard touchdown on Oregon’s first drive of the game, and he caught seven passes for a team-high 89 yards in Oregon’s double-overtime win at No. 3 Penn State. Moore ranks fourth among FBS freshmen in receiving yards and sixth in receptions.
The Law Firm – Protection You Can Trust
Oregon’s offensive line has been arguably the best in the nation since head coach Dan Lanning arrived in 2022, leading all FBS teams during that time with just 32 combined sacks allowed. Army is second in that span with 35 sacks allowed, but the Ducks have attempted more than 1,100 more passes at 1,552 compared to just 449. Oregon’s 32 sacks allowed are 12 less than any other Power 4 team (Kansas, 44). The Ducks led the nation in fewest sacks allowed in back-to-back years in 2022 and 2023, giving up just five sacks in each of those seasons. Oregon tied for 45th nationally with 21 sacks allowed in 2024, but seven of those came in the first two games and eight came in the CFP Quarterfinal at the Rose Bowl. In 11 games between Week 3 and the Big Ten Championship Game, Oregon was tied for No. 2 nationally with just six sacks allowed. Oregon has been terrific up front once again so far in 2025, tying for the national lead with just one sack allowed while ranking second in fewest tackles for losses allowed (12). UO has surrendered just 17 total pressures through five games.
Relentless D
Oregon’s defense was a driving force throughout the 2024 season and has been terrific once again early in 2025. The Ducks held Montana State to just 13 points in the season opener before keeping Oklahoma State out of the end zone and allowing only a field goal in Week 2. In Week 3, UO shut out Northwestern through three quarters and allowed a pair of late touchdowns in its Big Ten opener on the road. After yielding a first-quarter touchdown to in-state rival Oregon State, the UO defense put the clamps on the Beavers and did not allow another point in a 41-7 victory in Week 4. Penn State failed to reach the end zone until the fourth quarter in Oregon’s 30-24 double-overtime victory in Week 5.
Oregon is tied for fourth nationally with just seven total touchdowns allowed this season (tied for third in the Big Ten) and its two passing touchdowns allowed are tied for fifth-fewest in the country (tied for third in the Big Ten). UO currently is tied for sixth in the country in scoring defense at just 12.2 points allowed per game, which ranks third in the Big Ten, holding each of its first four opponents to 14 points or fewer after doing so seven times in 2024. Oregon’s dominant effort vs. Oklahoma State marked the first time it has not allowed a touchdown in a game since a 35-0 shutout at Purdue last season.
Setting The Tone
The Oregon defense has stifled opponents in the first halves of games this season, allowing teams an average of just 3.2 points in the first 30 minutes of play, including a first-half shut out of Northwestern in Week 3. The Ducks allowed a first-half touchdown for the first time this season against Oregon State in Week 4, marking the initial points against the Ducks in the first quarter of games. In five consecutive weeks, UO has forced a punt on its opponents’ opening possession of the game – forcing Montana State, Oklahoma State, Oregon State and Penn State to three-and-outs to begin the day.
No Fly Zone
A big key to Oregon’s defensive success has been its deep and talented secondary. UO did not give up a passing touchdown through the first four weeks of the season and is one of 15 FBS teams to allow two or fewer passing touchdowns on the year. The Ducks have held its first five opponents below the 200-yard mark through the air, including two under 100 passing yards, and are giving up an average of 123.4 passing yards a game (fifth nationally) with an opponent passer rating of 92.80 (fourth nationally). Additionally, the Ducks recorded two interceptions in back-to-back games against Oklahoma State and Northwestern, with three of those from the linebacking corp (ILB Jerry Mixon, OLB Bryce Boettcher). DB Dillon Thieneman’s interception in double overtime sealed the Ducks’ 30-24 win at Penn State, and marked the fifth interception and sixth turnover forced this season.

NO. 24 SOUTH FLORIDA SCORES 4 TDS IN A 3 1/2-MINUTE SPAN AND HANDS NORTH TEXAS ITS 1ST LOSS
DENTON, Texas (AP) — Byrum Brown threw three touchdown passes and ran for two more scores, Jhalyn Shuler returned a fumble 34 yards for South Florida’s fourth TD in span of 3 1/2 minutes and the No. 24 Bulls beat North Texas 63-36 on Friday night, handing the Mean Green their first loss this season.
The Bulls (5-1, 2-0 American) tied it at 21 with 2 seconds left before halftime when Brown threw a 2-yard TD pass to Jonathan Echols to capitalize on a muffed punt. They added three quick touchdowns after halftime, two of those off North Texas turnovers.
“We came out of the half just rocking, and that’s offense and defense,” USF coach Alex Golesh said. “Defensively, to cause four turnovers against a really good offense, against a really good quarterback that hasn’t turned it over, I thought really intentional by what our guys practiced, what our guys’ mindset was going into the game.”
North Texas (5-1, 1-1) hadn’t gone this deep into a season without a loss since a 5-0 start in 1959, which was nine years before “Mean” Joe Greene was a unanimous All-American at the school.
“I’ll beat myself up for a long time over this one, just because it was such a great opportunity for our fans, our program, our university, on national TV,” Mean Green third-year coach Eric Morris said.
South Florida went ahead to stay with some trickery right after halftime, on receiver Christian Neptune’s 29-yard TD pass to Keshaun Singleton after first taking a handoff on a sweep. The Bulls’ third interception in the game then set up Sam Franklin’s 11-yard TD with 12:35 left in the third quarter, a minute before the big return by Shuler for a 42-21 lead.
UNT redshirt freshman quarterback Drew Mestemaker, who never started a varsity game in high school, was 30-of-46 passing for 326 yards and two touchdowns, while also running for a score. He had thrown 11 TD passes without an interception in the first five games before the three picks by the Bulls.
South Florida outgained UNT 580 total yards to 423. Brown completed 22 of 28 passes for 245 yards, and ran 21 times for 82 yards while accounting for five TDs for the second game in a row.
Plans to clean it up
The first two South Florida possessions ended with fumbles, the first when Brown was hit for a sack and the other a messed-up exchange on a handoff to a running back. Brown threw an interception at the end of the first quarter.
“Mistakes and turnovers by me. But clean those up and should be more than 60 (points), should be 70-plus every game,” Brown said.
The takeaway
South Florida: The fast-paced Bulls have scored 229 points in their past four games (57.3 per game) this season, and have 267 points (53.4 ppg) in their last five conference games going back to last season. It was the second Friday night in a row the Bulls lost two fumbles and threw an interception before halftime and still won by a lopsided score — they beat Charlotte 54-26 last week.
“Things like that, when you’re playing high-level football are going to cost you,” Golsesh said. “And the crazy thing is, for the last two weeks, it hasn’t in terms of the wins and losses.”
North Texas: In likely the most-hyped game in school history and with an announced sellout crowd of 31,386, though the stands emptied in fourth quarter, the Mean Green made a bunch of uncharacteristic mistakes. They finished with five turnovers overall, with the muffed punt right before halftime setting up the game-turning span. UNT came into game with only three turnovers total, and a plus-1.6 turnover margin that was bettered only by Alabama.
Extra eight
USF has forced four turnovers in each of its last two games.
“I love the way that we created eight turnovers in these us two weeks to create an eight extra possessions,” Golesh said.

POLANCO HITS WINNING SINGLE IN THE 15TH INNING AS THE MARINERS BEAT THE TIGERS TO ADVANCE TO ALCS
SEATTLE (AP) — Jorge Polanco hit a game-ending single in the 15th inning, and the Seattle Mariners advanced to the AL Championship Series by outlasting the Detroit Tigers for a 3-2 victory Friday night in the longest winner-take-all postseason game in baseball history.
With one out and the bases loaded, Polanco drove in J.P. Crawford with a liner to right on a full-count changeup from Tommy Kahnle. Crawford held his arms in the air as he touched home plate while the Mariners poured out of the dugout to celebrate in front of a frenzied crowd of 47,025.
Crawford hit a leadoff single, Randy Arozarena was hit by a pitch and Julio Rodríguez was intentionally walked before Polanco’s big swing on the 472nd pitch of an epic Game 5 that clocked in at 4 hours, 58 minutes.
It was the third one-run game — all with a 3-2 score — in a tightly contested AL Division Series.
“I know we played a long game, but this team never gave up,” Polanco said. “I know there is a lot of emotion, but we are always trying to keep it simple. I’m just trying to go out there and play and trying to get the win.”
The Mariners left 12 runners on base and still managed to advance to the ALCS for the first time since 2001. Next up is a matchup with the AL East champion Blue Jays, beginning on Sunday night at Toronto.
“Just an incredible ballgame from top to bottom,” Mariners manager Dan Wilson said.
Luis Castillo pitched 1 1/3 innings for the win in his first major league relief appearance. Logan Gilbert, another member of Seattle’s rotation, worked two scoreless innings in his first relief outing since his college days at Stetson University in 2017.
“It was such a tough night,” Seattle catcher Cal Raleigh said. “Everyone put their other stuff side and did everything for the team, including Logan and Luis.”
Detroit wasted a stellar performance by Tarik Skubal, who struck out 13 while pitching six innings of one-run ball. The Tigers went 1 for 9 with runners in scoring position and left 10 on base.
“We had an incredible game today that — unfortunately, somebody had to lose, and that somebody was us, and it hurts,” manager A.J. Hinch said.
Kerry Carpenter put Detroit in front when he hit a two-run homer off Gabe Speier in the sixth inning. Carpenter had four hits and walked twice, becoming the first player to reach five times and hit a home run in a winner-take-all postseason game since Babe Ruth in 1926, according to STATS.
The Mariners tied it at 2 on Leo Rivas’ pinch-hit single off Tyler Holton in the seventh. Rivas celebrated his 28th birthday with his first postseason hit.
“He was up to the task tonight,” Wilson said. “It was a huge hit.”
The Mariners had a runner on second with no outs in the 10th, 12th and 13th inning — and came up empty each time. Arozarena and Eugenio Suárez both grounded into a double play in extra innings.
The Tigers threatened in the 12th, putting runners on second and third with one out. Zach McKinstry was cut down at home when he attempted to score on Javier Báez’s grounder to third. After Carpenter was walked intentionally, Gleyber Torres flied out to right.
Dillon Dingler hit a one-out double for Detroit in the 14th, but he was stranded there when Parker Meadows struck out looking against Eduard Bazardo and Castillo retired Báez on a popup to first.
“Guys just kept battling. There were opportunities on both sides after the ninth inning,” Hinch said.
Up next
Seattle dropped four of its six games against Toronto this season. The Mariners won two of three in an April series in Toronto, but they were swept by the Blue Jays at home from May 9-11.
DON’T CHECK IN LATE FOR CUBS-BREWERS NLDS DECIDER. THIS SERIES IS ALL ABOUT THE FIRST INNING
MILWAUKEE (AP) — Working as a starting pitcher in the NL Division Series between the Chicago Cubs and Milwaukee Brewers has been one tough job.
Twenty-one of the 35 runs in the series have been scored in the first inning. The series concludes on Saturday night with a winner-take-all Game 5 to determine which of these NL Central rivals will face the Los Angeles Dodgers in the NL Championship Series.
“I think it’s way more common than you think, for pitchers to be vulnerable in the first inning,” Brewers manager Pat Murphy said Friday. “Everybody’s geeked up. The atmosphere is way different. And I think that’s something that is noted.”
So perhaps it’s no surprise that neither Murphy nor Cubs manager Craig Counsell announced their Game 5 starting pitchers a day in advance.
The Cubs have the option of turning to Game 2 loser Shota Imanaga on four days’ rest, but he posted a 6.51 ERA in September and has allowed six runs over 6 2/3 innings in two appearances this postseason.
“With the exception of (Game 4 starter) Matt Boyd, everyone’s going to be available,” Counsell said. “And so it’s a cliché here, but we have 11 pitchers to figure out how to get 27 outs. That’s how we’re treating it.”
Milwaukee could use a similar approach to its Game 2 strategy, when seven different pitchers contributed to a 7-3 victory. Murphy noted that Aaron Ashby would be available after throwing 32 pitches in the Brewers’ Game 4 loss on Thursday.
Murphy listed Ashby, Abner Uribe, Jared Koenig, Trevor Megill, Chad Patrick and Jacob Misiorowski as guys who are “going to probably pitch.”
“A lot of those guys are rookies, a lot of those guys are not very experienced, but that’s how we’ve won all these games and come together,” Murphy said. “Now we’re playing in a way bigger environment, and it’s a bigger task. But I’m confident that we’ll have enough pitching.”
The Cubs are trying to become the 11th team to win a best-of-five series after losing the first two games. The last team to do it was the New York Yankees against Cleveland in the 2017 AL Division Series.
Saturday’s winning team would open the NLCS on Monday. The Brewers would host the Dodgers for the start of the series, while the Cubs would travel to Los Angeles.
Chicago has reached this point by winning each of its last three elimination games, though all of them were at home. The Cubs beat the San Diego Padres 3-1 in the decisive third game of their Wild Card Series, and they brought this series back to Milwaukee by winning 4-3 in Game 3 and 6-0 in Game 4.
“I feel like it’s an even slate,” Cubs second baseman Nico Hoerner said after the Game 4 victory. “Game 5. Both teams have had great moments in this series. I love where our group’s at.”
Milwaukee is trying to change its recent history of postseason frustration.
The Brewers are in the playoffs for the seventh time in the last eight seasons, but their last postseason series win was in the 2018 NLDS. They lost Game 7 at home to the Dodgers in the NLCS that year and are 4-13 in their last 17 playoff games.
Murphy remains confident in the Brewers’ chances as they look to bounce back from two straight losses in Chicago.
“We’re five wins away from the World Series,” Murphy said. “I’ve learned a lot about this team, and one thing it is, it’s resilient, and they bounce back.”
Milwaukee suffered one of its most heartbreaking playoff exits last year, when the Brewers led the New York Mets 2-0 heading into the ninth inning of Game 3 in the NL Wild Card Series before Pete Alonso hit a three-run homer off Devin Williams as part of a four-run rally.
Losing this series would be just about as painful for Brewers fans because it’s against one of their biggest rivals and Counsell, the longtime Milwaukee manager who grew up in the area but left his hometown team to join the Cubs.
Counsell has downplayed the personal aspect of this matchup throughout the series.
“I’m just thinking about how do we advance,” Counsell said. “It’s almost like the opponent doesn’t matter right now. How do we advance? Because who you play and all those stories around that, that doesn’t matter. How do we advance? That’s really been my focus.”

WILSON SCORES 31 AND ACES WIN 3RD WNBA TITLE IN 4 SEASONS, BEATING MERCURY 97-86 FOR 4-GAME SWEEP
PHOENIX (AP) — A’ja Wilson put in work in the paint, getting bucket after bucket despite multiple defenders draped all over her.
She got plenty of help from Chelsea Gray, Jewell Loyd and Dana Evans. The trio started raining 3s early in the second quarter.
The Las Vegas Aces — once again — were an offensive force in the WNBA Finals, and they were well on their way to their third championship in four seasons. They finished off a four-game sweep of the Phoenix Mercury with a 97-86 victory on Friday night.
“These guys are elite,” Aces coach Becky Hammon said.
Wilson had 31 points and nine rebounds while Gray and Jackie Young each scored 18 points. Five players scored in double figures.
The Aces made quick work of the league’s first best-of-seven Finals. They scored 54 points in the first half and averaged more than 90 points per game in the series.
Wilson came to the postgame press conference wearing giant ski goggles from a Champagne celebration in the locker room and carrying a pink tambourine, shaking it after answers she liked.
“This is a symbol of the joyfulness we have right now,” Wilson said, grinning. “I’m just so grateful to be with this bunch — and that’s not the alcohol talking.”
Wilson — honored as the Finals MVP — led the way for the Aces despite a poor shooting night. The four-time regular-season MVP finished 7 of 21 from the field, but made 17 of 19 free throws. Gray made four 3-pointers, including two in the fourth quarter to help turn back a final rally by the Mercury.
The Aces were presented the championship trophy by embattled WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert, who was greeted with boos from the sizable contingent of Las Vegas fans who made the trip to Phoenix.
The Aces led 76-62 going into the fourth quarter, but the Mercury went on an 8-0 run that cut the deficit to 76-70 with 7:56 left. That was as close as they would get.
Kahleah Copper led the Mercury with 30 points, shooting 12 of 22 from the field. Alyssa Thomas had 17 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists.
Mercury coach Nate Tibbetts was ejected in the third quarter after receiving two quick technical fouls from official Gina Cross. Tibbetts was arguing a foul call against Mercury guard Monique Akoa Makani, and reacted in disbelief as he was escorted off the court.
DeWanna Bonner and Copper also got called for technical fouls in the fourth quarter.
The Aces never trailed in the series clincher, building a 30-21 lead by the end of the first quarter on 55% shooting. Loyd, Gray and Evans made three straight 3s early in the second quarter to put Las Vegas ahead by 19.
Las Vegas settled for a 54-38 halftime advantage. Wilson had 14 points before the break while Gray added 10.
Tibbetts said the Aces were a tough team to guard all series.
“Unbelievable team — they were just playing at an extremely high level,” Tibbetts said. “We put ourselves in position to have a chance in a couple games, but what a run they’ve been on. Hitting big shots after big shots.”
The Mercury were without forward Satou Sabally, who suffered a concussion near the end of Game 3. They suffered another injury blow on Friday when Thomas had to leave just before halftime after taking a hard hit to her right shoulder on a screen from Loyd.
Thomas returned for the second half but was hampered by the injury.
The Mercury enjoyed a deep playoff run under Tibbetts, but couldn’t find a way to slow down the Aces. Phoenix made it to the finals after beating the defending champion New York Liberty in the opening round and knocking off the top-seeded Minnesota Lynx in the semifinals.
Phoenix lost in the WNBA Finals for the second time in five years, also falling to the Chicago Sky in 2021. The Mercury have won three championships, with the last coming in 2014.

COLTS RULE OUT RB TYLER GOODSON, CB KENNY MOORE II FOR WEEK 6 GAME VS. ARIZONA CARDINALS; WR ALEC PIERCE CLEARS CONCUSSION PROTOCOL
The Colts on Friday ruled out running back Tyler Goodson (groin) and cornerback Kenny Moore II (Achilles) for their Week 6 game against the Arizona Cardinals at Lucas Oil Stadium, head coach Shane Steichen said.
This will be the third game Moore is inactive for since sustaining his Achilles injury in Week 3. Goodson, who sustained his injury in Week 4, will now miss his second consecutive game. Neither player participated in practice this week.
Steichen said wide receiver Alec Pierce, who was sidelined in Weeks 4 and 5 with a concussion, has cleared concussion protocol and will be active for Sunday’s game.
COLTS-CARDINALS PREVIEW: KYLER MURRAY’S INJURY DOESN’T CHANGE DEFENSE’S PLAN, DANIEL JONES PREPS TO FACE JONATHAN GANNON’S STINGY ARIZONA DEFENSE
(COLTS PRESS RELEASE)
As of Friday morning, we don’t know if Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray will play on Sunday.
Murray did not participate in the Cardinals’ practices Wednesday and Thursday with a foot injury he sustained in Arizona’s chaotic Week 5 loss to the Tennessee Titans. We might get some clarity later on Friday, but the Colts have operated this week as if Murray will play on Sunday at Lucas Oil Stadium.
“We’re just going to keep preparing like he’s going to play,” defensive tackle DeForest Buckner said. “You don’t know until he’s ruled out.”
If Murray does play, he’ll present a different challenge than any other quarterback the Colts have faced this season. He’s completed an efficient 68.3 percent of his passes this season, but is averaging just 6.0 yards per attempt – the fifth-lowest rate among qualified quarterbacks entering Week 6. Murray is one of three quarterbacks (along with Aaron Rodgers and Bo Nix) whose average depth of target on completions is under four yards; Rodgers’ receivers are No. 1 in yards after the catch, Nix’s are sixth, but Murray’s are 17th.
That’s all to say the Cardinals’ passing offense this year has been compressed and not all that explosive. But Murray’s ability to escape pressure, scramble outside the pocket and make plays with his arm or his legs is something the Colts are more worried about than whatever these statistics may show. Discipline up front will be at a premium on Sunday.
“You got to continue to rush because he loves to extend plays,” Buckner said. “That’s been his entire career – getting outside of the pocket and extending plays. It’s not fair to the back end having to cover for so long. So as a rush group, we’ve got to do a really good job with our rush lanes and keeping our eyes on the quarterback when we’re rushing, covering each other and continuing to just rush all the way through the down.”
Second-year wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr., too, is coming off a 98-yard game in Week 5 against the Titans; while he’s had a somewhat slow start to his career relative to expectations given his draft slot (No. 4 overall in 2024) and his Hall of Fame dad, the threat he provides is one the Colts are keyed on this week.
For the Colts’ defense, though, Sunday’s game is more about what they can do than who may or may not play for Arizona. The Colts enter Week 6 third in the NFL in points allowed per game (17.6) and fifth in takeaways (eight), traditional stats backed up by two advanced ones: The Colts are eighth in EPA per play on defense and are fifth in defensive DVOA. In the last three weeks, the Colts are 10th in pressure rate (40.1 percent) and seventh in sack rate (8.5 percent), too.
“I think we established that we’re disciplined,” linebacker Zaire Franklin said. “I think that we play for each other. I think we play fast. I think we play physical, and then we take the ball away. I think we just make timely plays to help our team win.”
When the Colts have the ball
Arizona enters Week 6 allowing 19.2 points per game, fourth in the NFL, and they’re eighth in defensive DVOA. Head coach Jonathan Gannon – who was the Philadelphia Eagles’ defensive coordinator when Shane Steichen was offensive coordinator – plays a multitude of coverages (primarily Cover-3 and Cover-4, with Cover-1 and Cover-2 mixed in) and coaches his players to disguise them before the snap, which has created challenges for opposing offenses this season.
“They do a phenomenal job,” Steichen said. “I think they’re very multiple in what they do. Got different looks that we got to be prepared for.”
The Cardinals have held opposing quarterbacks to a 76.8 passer rating, fourth-lowest in the NFL; Colts quarterback Daniel Jones enters Week 6 with a passer rating of 105.1, eighth-best in the NFL.
“(They) play a multitude of different looks, and force you to communicate well on offense and make sure you identify what they’re doing well and you’re kind of all on the same page as a group,” Jones said. “You can tell they’re well-coached, a smart team. They present kind of some unique and nontraditional looks. And for us, we got to do a good job identifying it, communicating clearly and then executing.”
Arizona is particularly stingy in the red zone. They’ve allowed a touchdown on just 47 percent of opposing drives inside the 20, third-lowest in the NFL, and in total they’ve given up only eight drives that’ve ended in a touchdown (15.1 percent), second in the NFL behind the Denver Broncos (10.7 percent touchdown drive rate).
Zooming out here, it’s worth noting all five of the Cardinals’ games this season have been decided by one score; they’ve lost three games by a total of five points. The Colts, meanwhile, have won three of their five games by at least 21 points.
Only 13 total games in 2025 have been decided by 21+ points – including those three Colts wins – while 18 games in Weeks 4 and 5 were decided by one score. Chances are, the Colts will be pulled into tight games more often than they blow out opposing teams.
And whether Murray plays or not on Sunday – ex-Colts quarterback Jacoby Brissett would start if not – the expectation here, based on the opponent, is the Colts will need to execute in a tight game to go back to California next week with a 5-1 record.

June 14 at Carroll Stadium
Midfielder Jack Blake netted the game-winning goal in first half stoppage time off a smooth sequence from midfielder Aodhan Quinn to give Indy Eleven a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Pittsburgh Riverhounds SC.
The game-winning goal came in the second minute of added time after a turnover forced by defender Finn McRobb. McRobb quickly pushed the ball to Quinn, who threaded a pass in front of the goal. Blake controlled the ball with a quick double touch before slotting a left-footed shot into the goal.
Defender Ben Ofeimu earned USL Championship Team of the Week honors after leading his team to its second consecutive clean sheet.
The West Bloomfield Township, Michigan, native anchored the defense with 15 clearances, surpassing his previous Boys in Blue best of 12 at Pittsburgh last season. The 6’4 Ofeimu also led his team in tackles won (2) and he added three aerial duels won, 64 touches, 31 completed passes (six in the final third), one chance created, and a shot.
Goalkeeper Hunter Sulte opened the match with an early clearance en route to his second straight shutout in 11 days.
Ofeimu and Elvis Amoh each recorded key defensive saves in the first half to deny Pittsburgh inside the box. Defender Pat Hogan added a crucial block in the 30th minute to keep the clean sheet intact.
Indy Eleven controlled much of the first-half possession and nearly broke through in the 17th minute when Amoh fired a shot from inside the box that was deflected, leading to a right-footed strike from Blake that just missed. Moments later, Quinn tested Pittsburgh keeper Eric Dick with a strong effort inside the box.
The Boys in Blue earned four corners in the match, including three from midfielder James Murphy. Murphy continued to press through Pittsburgh’s defense early in the second half, with an assisted shot by Blake. Pittsburgh pushed late but was denied by a key defensive stop from Quinn after a dangerous shot inside the box.

INDIANA MEN’S SOCCER
HOOSIERS RESILIENT AGAIN IN 4-2 WIN
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. — Indiana men’s soccer (8-3-1, 3-3-0 B1G) recorded its fifth comeback victory of the season Friday (Oct. 10) night, recovering from 2-1, second-half deficit to defeat Ohio State (5-6-0, 2-3-0 B1G), 4-2, on Jerry Yeagley Field at Bill Armstrong Stadium.
Senior forward Palmer Ault assisted a go-ahead goal in the 17th minute and a game-tying goal in the 55th before his 30th-career goal gave IU the lead in the 68th minute. Graduate transfer defender Ben Do put the icing on the cake with a 90th-minute score.
KEY MOMENTS
• 17′ – GOAL! Ault picked up the ball at midfield and dribbled up the field, attracting defenders before laying it off to sophomore forward Easton Bogard, making a run into the box. Bogard stepped on the brakes, shifted the ball onto his left foot and finished into the top corner to give Indiana the early lead. Indiana 1, Ohio State 0
• 37′ – GOAL! OSU graduate defender Thomas Gilej took his chances from 30 yards out and was rewarded with a low screamer that fit perfectly between graduate goalkeeper Holden Brown’s glove and the front post. Tie game. Indiana 1, Ohio State 1
• 49′ – GOAL! Brown couldn’t contain an effort from OSU redshirt senior defender Nathan Demian, and freshman forward Michael Ndiweni jumped on the rebound, scoring his first goal of the season. Ohio State 2, Indiana 1
• 55′ – GOAL! Indiana took advantage of a free kick just outside the box and near the end line. Instead of an aerial ball, Ault elected a low pass towards the penalty spot and connected with junior defender Alex Barger, who put it home with a first-time finish to the back post. Indiana 2, Ohio State 2
• 62′ – Ault nearly got the winner six minutes early from a shot that clanged off the crossbar.
• 68′ – GOAL! After losing the ball in the box, Bogard got in front of an attempted clearance and deflected the ball to sophomore midfielder Charlie Heuer. Heuer quickly passed to Ault, who turned and fired, left-footed, past the keeper. Indiana 3, Ohio State 2
• 81′ – Ohio State had a great chance to equalize in a one-on-one chance with Brown, but the shot went right into the on-rushing keeper.
• 90′ – GOAL! As the seconds ticked down, the Hoosiers won a clearance in the middle of the pitch and advanced forward. The ball came to Do, free in the box coming down the right wing, and the defender struck it to the keeper’s inside post. Indiana 4, Ohio State 2
NOTABLES
• Considering the 2-1 deficit, Friday’s result marked Indiana’s fifth comeback victory this season and first since September 19 at Penn State.
• Indiana has played 193 consecutive regular season matches without back-to-back defeats. The streak spans 4,361 days (11 years, 11 months, 9 days) in total dating back to November 1, 2013.
• In the 60th game of the all-time series, Indiana improved to 49-6-5 against Ohio State. The Hoosiers have won nine of the last 11 matches in the series with a 9-1-1 record since 2017.
• Ault eclipsed 30 goals and 75 assists on Friday night, bringing his career totals to 30 goals, 17 assists and 77 points. The senior leads the Big Ten with nine goals and 23 points this season.
• Heuer made his fourth appearance this season and first since September 23 at Michigan State after dealing with injury. The assist marked his first of the year.
• Do scored his first goal as a Hoosier from his 90th-minute strike. Swan’s assist marked his first-career point.
UP NEXT
Indiana will have 10 days off from Big Ten play, playing two non-conference matches in between. The Hoosiers will travel for its annual matchup with Kentucky on Tuesday (Oct. 14) before hosting Hanover College Friday (Oct. 17) for Senior Day.

NOTRE DAME HOCKEY
IRISH DROP HARD FOUGHT BATTLE AT #15/15 ASU
TEMPE, Az. — The University of Notre Dame hockey team opened the 2025-26 season on the road at the annual Ice Breaker tournament, taking on hosts No. 15/15 Arizona State in the season opener, ultimately dropping a 5-3 decision to the home Sun Devils.
The Irish wasted no time putting the offensive pressure on Friday night, firing two shots on goal off the stick of Michael Mastrodomenico less than 20 seconds into play.
The Irish were whistled for the first infraction of the night as Henry Nelson tied up a Sun Devil from a potential breakaway but was called for a hold at 5:27 of the opening frame. The team’s top penalty kill unit spent 91 seconds on the ice before Carter Slaggert was able to clear it the length of the ice and get a change in. The Irish killed off the remainder of the ASU man advantage.
Shortly after the kill though the Irish headed back to the box for hooking and were tasked with a second man-disadvantage at 8:16 of the first period.
The Irish returned to full strength and brought the pressure back into the ASU end with Danny Nelson and Evan Werner each recording shots but the Irish were unable to break the netminder between the pipes.
ASU was whistled for a hook at 13:08 of the frame to give the Irish their first powerplay opportunity of the year. After a lengthy review, the Irish were also assessed a penalty – a major for head contact – and the two teams skated four a side for the next two minutes.
A misplayed puck by an Irish defenseman found the tape of a Sun Devil on the powerplay and his shot beat Kempf over his blocker as they took the 1-0 lead.
Cole Knuble had a chance shorthanded in the waning seconds of the penalty kill but his shot was stuffed aside and the score remained 1-0.
The Sun Devils extended the lead after a broken Irish stick in the neutral zone created an odd-man rush the other way and the shot beat Kempf in the crease.
The score would remain through the horn as the Irish headed to the locker room trialing by two after the first 20 minutes of the season.
A backhanded tap beat Kempf five hole just 54 seconds into the middle stanza as the Sun Devils took a 3-0 lead.
The first goal of the season came off the stick of Henry Nelson who ripped a one-timer from the blue line through traffic to get the Irish on the board.
The Irish were charged with a bench minor shortly after but the kill would be negated when ASU was flagged for a delay of game after a face-off violation with 1:12 to go on the Notre Dame kill.
Notre Dame’s Jaedon Kerr drew a penalty deep in the offensive zone just over halfway through the contest and the Irish saw their second powerplay opportunity of the night following a hook against the Sun Devils.
The Irish capitalized on the man advantage as Paul Fischer found the back of the net with a shot from above the far circle, beating Samuel Urban in the ASU net. The Sun Devils answered shortly after to reclaim their two-goal lead and would find the back of the net once more before the end of the frame to take the 5-2 lead into the intermission.
Notre Dame saw 11.3 seconds of powerplay action before the end of the frame and would see the remainder of the man-advantage when the two teams returned to the ice for the third period.
The Irish had a few strong chances during the remaining powerplay to start the third period but were unable to convert and the two sides were back to full strength.
ASU called timeout with 13:14 to play in regulation and shortly after their return to play, the Sun Devils were called for a trip after Evan Werner got tangled up with a defender near the Sun Devil net.
The Irish powerplay unit returned to work at 7:22 of the final frame but the Sun Devils defended their net and held the Irish scoreless on the man-advantage midway through the period.
Carter Slaggert made it a two-goal game again with a tally at 12:10 of the third period with assists to Sutter Muzzatti and Axel Kumlin.
With 5:15 to go in regulation, and the Irish buzzing from their third goal of the night, a hit by the Sun Devils along the halfwall was reviewed for a potential major. After a lengthy review the call was determined to be a minor for boarding and the Irish headed to the powerplay once more, trailing by two.
After being unable to convert on the man advantage, the Irish were whistled for an infraction themselves, a hold, with 2:50 to play in regulation and were forced to sit for two minutes.
The Irish called timeout with 55.9 seconds to play and opted for the extra attacker when they returned to play but it was not enough as the score went final and the Irish dropped their season opening contest inside Mullett Arena.
GOALS
In his collegiate debut, Pano Fimis skated the puck into the offensive end, dangled a defender and fed the puck back to Henry Nelson who stood waiting for the one-timer at the blue line. The junior, Nelson, ripped a shot through traffic to get the Irish on the board.
Paul Fischer danced along the blue line before taking his opportunity on the powerplay and firing a shot into the back of the net for his first of the season. Evan Werner picked up the primary assist on the play to register his first point in an Irish sweater, while Cole Knuble had the second apple on the goal.
Axel Kumlin, Sutter Muzzatti and Carter Slaggert combined for the team’s third goal of the night. Kumlin created the rush, skating through the neutral zone before dishing the puck across the o-zone where Muzzatti got a bit of the puck before Slaggert gathered it and fired a wrist shot from the near dot, beating Connor Hasley glove side for the tally.
KEY STATS
With the lone assist on H. Nelson’s opening goal, Pano Fimis tallied his first collegiate point.
Evan Werner tallied his first point with the Irish as he registered the primary assist on Fischer’s powerplay goal in the second period.
Recording the primary helper on Slaggert’s third period goal, Sutter Muzzatti tallied his first point for the Blue and Gold.
The Irish outshot the Sun Devils 50-38, marking their first 50-plus shot count since October 26, 2023 against Mercyhurst with former Irish netminder (then Laker) Owen Say in the crease.
Nicholas Kempf stopped 33 shots between the pipes for the Irish in his season debut.
Fimis played second line center for the Irish Friday night, his first for the Irish. The freshman led the team at the dot among those with multiple attempts, boasting a 66.7-percent mark with 10 face-off wins on 15 chances.
Friday night marked the first game of the Sheahan Era for Notre Dame hockey as Catalino Family Head Hockey Coach made his debut behind the bench, becoming the fifth head coach in program history.

IU Indy came out firing in the opening set, jumping ahead 10–0 behind a dominant service run from Elle Patterson and kills from Jillian Tippmann and Ninah Miranda. The Jaguars hit an impressive .364 in the frame while holding Robert Morris to just .220 to take the early lead. The Jags closed out the first set 25-18.
After the Colonials evened the match in the second, the Jaguars regrouped behind strong all-around play from their front line to win set three.

INDIANA STATE VOLLEYBALL
SYCAMORES BEAT RACERS IN FRIDAY-NIGHT, FIVE-SET THRILLER
MURRAY, Ky. – Indiana State volleyball secured a five-set victory (25-19, 11-25, 14-25, 25-15, 15-13) to open this weekend’s road conference play. The Sycamores continue conference play on the road at Belmont on Saturday, October 11.
Curry Kendall led the Sycamores’ offense with 14 kills, while three other Trees also added in double-digit kills: Kira Holland and Hadley Hardersen with 12 and 11, respectively, and Ava Robart added another 10. Holland and Chole Gilley led the defense with 19 and 16 digs each. Ava Robart (14) and Emily Weber (12) also added in double-digit digs. Ella Scott chipped in 4.5 blocks to aid the Sycamores’ defense.
Set 1 | Indiana State 25, Murray State 19
The Sycamores came out ready to make a statement and win against the Racers for just the second time in program history. The Sycamores struck first and were able to go on an early 5-2 on the backs of early success from the offense. The Racers were slowly able to bring themselves back within one, 7-6, however a Kira Holland kill ensured that the Sycamores held onto the lead. Errors for the Racers allowed the Trees to continue to build their lead to as large as four. The Racers quickly found ways to slow the Trees’ offense and were ultimately able to take the lead midway through the set. Both teams would continue to battle back-and-forth until two kills in a row by Curry Kendall tied the set back up and began a 6-0 run for the trees to build a small four-point lead, 21-17. This lead proved to be enough as errors haunted the Racers’ offense, and the Trees were able to take the opening set by six.
Set 2 | Murray State 25, Indiana State 11
Despite coming away victorious in set one, the Trees struggled early in set two. The Racers jumped out to an early 9-3 lead. Despite kills by Ava Robart and Curry Kendall, the Trees’ offense could not find their footing as they could only retain the serve for more than one point just one time late in the set. With the Racers playing a near-perfect set, with just one error, the Sycamores were unable ever to gain the lead and lost the set by 14, the largest point differential of a lost set this season.
Set 3 | Murray State 25, Indiana State 14
With the match tied at 1-1, both teams came out wanting to put away set three. With five ties coming in just the first 10 points, it looked as if this set would be a back-and-forth battle. However, after several hitting errors by the Trees, the Racers were able to take a seven-point lead, 16-9. As quickly as the Sycamores’ offense would put the ball back in their control, the Racers would find a hole in the Trees’ defense. With the Sycamores’ offense earning just eight total points in the set, they were waiting for the Racers to make errors, which never came.
Set 4 | Indiana State 25, Murray State 15
Being down 2-1, it was now or never for the Trees if they wanted to have their best start to conference play under head coach Ashlee Pritchard. Much like set three, the first nine points saw four ties. After a pair of blocks by Ella Scott and Hadley Hardersen, the Trees began to find some new life. The Sycamores went on a 16-6 run, scoring 10 kills and three blocks in that time, giving the Sycamores a 10-point lead. The run began with Hardersen scoring three-straight points. It was then aided by kills from Holland, Robart, Hardersen, and Kendall, as well as two service aces and three block assists by Ella Scot – and the Trees never allowed the Racers to score more than one point at a time. Despite the Racers’ attempts to take the fourth set, a Curry Kendall kill sealed the deal of a deciding set.
Set 5 | Indiana State 15, Murray State 13
With the match on the line, both teams came out wanting to put it away. The Racers jumped out to an early 3-0 lead as the Trees were looking for a response. But in the first half of the set, the Racers were in control. A kill by Ella Scott brought life back to the Sycamores’ offense. A 5-1 run with strong serving by Emmy Sher and two back-to-back kills by Ava Robart gave the Trees their first lead of the set. The next seven points would be a back-and-forth battle with the Racers holding a one-point lead, 13-12, and being just two points away from victory. A kill by Curry Kendall and two back-to-back kills for Kira Holland led the Sycamores to victory over the Racers.

+++SPORTS EXTRA+++
+++++TODAY IN BASEBALL HISTORY+++++
1909 At Bennett Park, Honus Wagner becomes the first player to steal three bases in a World Series contest. The Pirates’ third baseman’s thievery enables Pittsburgh to beat Detroit, 8-6, in Game 3 of the Fall Classic.
1911 Ty Cobb (Tigers – AL) and Frank Schulte (Cubs – NL) receive cars for being the first-ever Most Valuable Player in their respective leagues. The new honor, known as the Chalmers Award, is sponsored by Chalmers Automotive, a Detroit-based automobile company.
1915 In front of the largest crowd ever to see a World Series game, 42,300 fans watch the Red Sox beat the Phillies in Game 3 of the Fall Classic, 2-1. The contest, which is played at the National League home of the Braves to accommodate more Boston patrons, ends when Duffy Lewis singles with two outs to score Harry Hooper in the bottom of the ninth inning.
1929 The Cubs become the first National League team to win a Fall Classic contest since 1926 when the Redbirds beat the Yankees in Game 7. Chicago breaks the Senior Circuit’s ten-game World Series skid in Game 3 with a 3-1 victory over Philadelphia at Shibe Park.
1947 The Yankees trade Joe Gordon, a future Hall of Fame second baseman who will leave the Bronx after playing in precisely 1,000 games and collecting exactly 1,000 hits, to the Indians for Allie Reynolds, known as Superchief by his teammates due to his Creek heritage. The trade works well for both teams when Cleveland’s newest infielder plays a significant role in the Tribe’s World Championship next season, with the Bronx Bombers’ recently arrived right-hander compiling an impressive 131-60 (.686) record during his eight years with the team.
1948 In Game 6 of the Fall Classic, the Indians beat Boston at Braves Field, 4-3, to capture the team’s second World Series title in franchise history. Bob Lemon wins the game, with Gene Bearden pitching the final one and two-thirds innings to earn the save.
1958 Bill Mazeroski weds Milene Nicholson at Sacred Heart Church in Braddock (PA) after his manager, Danny Murtaugh, ordered him to call her after he spotted his second baseman watching the young female fan in the stands during a rain delay last season. The skipper’s advice works well for the 22-year-old All-Star infielder, who will stay married to his bride for over six decades while raising two sons.
1959 At Syracuse’s MacArthur Stadium, middleweight champion Carmen Basilio umpires an exhibition game between Mickey Mantle’s AL All-Stars and Willie Mays’ NL All-Star barnstorming squads. The contest, which costs only $2.50 to attend, features a home-run hitting competition between Braves slugger Hank Aaron and Indians right fielder Rocky Colavito, who led the American League in home runs this season.
1964 In Game 4 of the World Series, Ken Boyer’s sixth-inning grand slam off Yankee starter Al Downing gives the Cardinals a 4-3 victory over the Yankees. The St. Louis third baseman is the second National Leaguer to hit a postseason bases-loaded round-tripper.
(Ed. Note: In Game 4 of the 1962 World Series at Yankee Stadium, Giants second baseman Chuck Hiller became the first National League player to hit a grand slam in the Fall Classic. – LP)
1965 Willie Davis, in Game 5, a 7-0 victory over the Twins at Dodger Stadium, becomes the second player to steal three bases in a World Series game. The L.A. center fielder joins Pirates shortstop Honus Wagner, who accomplished the feat on the same date 56 years ago against Detroit in Game 3 of the 1909 Fall Classic.
1967 Carl Yastrzemski, Reggie Smith, and Rico Petrocelli, his second of the game, all go deep off Dick Hughes in the bottom of the fourth inning at Fenway Park, marking the first time three teammates hit home runs in the same inning in a World Series game. Boston’s eventual 8-4 victory over St. Louis knots the Fall Classic at three games apiece.
1967 With a year remaining on his contract to manage Washington, Gil Hodges inks a three-year deal to become the Mets skipper, ending the speculation that Yogi Berra, a coach with the team, would replace the recently resigned Wes Westrum. New York agrees to pay significant reparations to the Senators and send a player from the 40-man roster to Washington to get the fan-favorite former Dodger.
1968 The Giants name Clyde King as the team’s new manager, replacing Herman Franks. San Francisco will fire their new skipper, who will guide the club to 90 victories next season, when the team loses a contest against the Padres in May of 1970, after leading 8-0.
1968 The Cardinals trade outfielder/first baseman Bobby Tolan and right-hander Wayne Granger to the Reds for Vada Pinson. The National League Champion Redbirds obtained the former All-Star Gold Glove outfielder to replace Roger Maris, who retired after the season ended.
1970 “It was as if [Boston] Mayor Menino were to trade the USS Constitution to Baltimore for the USS Constellation.” – HERB CREHAN, referring to the Red Sox dealing Tony Conigliaro to the Angels in his book Red Sox Heroes of Yesteryear. During the O’s/Reds World Series, the Red Sox trade fan-favorite Tony Conigliaro, Ray Jarvis, and Jerry Moses to the Angels for Doug Griffin, Jarvis Tatum, and Ken Tatum. The deal stuns the baseball community and crushes the former Boston outfielder, who fans admire for his courageous comeback after being hit in the left cheekbone by a Jack Hamilton pitch that caused a severe eye injury.
1971 At Baltimore’s Memorial Stadium, Pat Nixon becomes the first First Lady to toss a ceremonial first pitch at a major league game. Richard’s wife, a frequent visitor at Washington DC’s Griffith Park with her then vice-president husband and daughters in the 1950s, does the honors before Game Two of the World Series, a contest that hometown Orioles handily beat the Pirates, 11-3.
1972 Bobby Winkles, former head baseball coach at Arizona State, becomes the first major league skipper taken from the collegiate ranks since Hugo Bezdek managed the Pirates in 1917. The Angel coach, who compiled a 524-173 record en route to three national championships with ASU, replaces the recently fired Del Rice, who spent one season with the fifth-place (75-80) Halos.
1972 In the fifth and deciding game of the NLCS at Riverfront Stadium, George Foster scores the winning run from third base in the bottom of the ninth on a wild pitch thrown by Bob Moose, giving the Reds a dramatic 4-3 walk-off victory over the Pirates. Earlier in the inning, Johnny Bench hit a home run off Dave Giusti to tie the score.
1973 Less than two weeks after leaving the Yankees for the second time in his career, Ralph Houk signs a three-year deal to be the Tigers manager, a team in a rebuilding mode. The Major, replacing a fiery Bill Martin, fired by the team at the end of August, will compile a 363-443 (.450) record during his five seasons in the Motor City.
1975 As the first host of Saturday Night Live, George Carlin compares baseball to football in the opening monologue of the ground-breaking show. The comedian jokes the national pastime is a gentler game, portraying the sport as pastoral and played in a park as opposed to football, where the objective is to march downfield and penetrate enemy territory in a stadium.
1976 With Davey Johnson in the on-deck circle, Japanese home run king Sadaharu hits his 715th home run, surpassing Babe Ruth’s much-heralded career home run total. Two seasons ago, Johnson was also in the lineup, batting in the hole, when Henry Aaron passed the Sultan of Swat with his 715th round-tripper to become the all-time major league home run leader.
(Ed. Note: Jack Lind, a member of the Brewers during Aaron’s two-year tenure with the club (1975 to 1976), is the only other player to be a teammate of both home run kings. – LP)
1978 Rookie right-hander Bob Welch strikes out Reggie Jackson with two men on base and two out in the top of the ninth inning, dramatically preserving a 4-3 Dodger victory over the Yankees in Game 2 of the Fall Classic. The relief performance will put the 21-year-old in the national spotlight.
1981 The Expos post their first-ever playoff series triumph, winning NLDS when they beat the defending World Champion Phillies, 3-0, behind Steve Rogers’ six-hit complete-game shutout at Veterans Stadium. The franchise will not advance to another postseason until 2019 when the team takes the Wild Card game as the Washington Nationals.
1992 After participating in a game against the Dolphins in Miami, NFL Falcons’ cornerback Deion Sanders flies to Pittsburgh, hoping to become the first athlete to play in two professional leagues on the same day. However, the traveling outfielder will not be in the lineup for the Braves’ 7-1 loss in Game 5 of the NLCS against the Pirates at Three Rivers Stadium that evening.
1999 An ailing Pedro Martinez, with both starters ineffective in the decisive Game 5 of the ALCS and the score tied at 8-8 in the fourth, enters the game and doesn’t yield another hit to the Indians for the next six innings. Troy O’Leary collects a grand slam and a three-run home run following intentional passes to Nomar Garciaparra, contributing to the Red Sox’ 12-8 victory at Cleveland’s Jacobs Field.
2000 The Yankees’ eight hits in the eighth inning in Game 2 set an ALCS record and contribute to the Bronx Bombers’ 7-1 victory over the Mariners. The new mark surpasses the accomplishments of the Orioles (Game 1 – 1970), the Yankees (Game 2 – 1981), and the Blue Jays (Game 3 – 1985), who each had seven hits in one inning of a championship series.
2002 Buck Showalter, who compiled a 563-504 (.527) managerial record in six seasons with the Yankees and Diamondback, is hired by the last-place Rangers to replace Jerry Narron, let go two days ago as the team’s skipper. The Cubs, Mets, Devil Rays, and Brewers had also expressed an interest in the 46-year-old ESPN commentator.
2003 In Game 4, the Cubs (6) and Marlins (8) tie the NLCS homer record by hitting 14 dingers in the championship series. The total, which will expand to 23 in the seven-game series, was established by the Giants and Cardinals last year.
2004 The Astros, after seven tries during their 43-year history, finally win a postseason playoff series when they eliminate the Braves in the deciding Game 5 of the NLDS, 12-3. The Houston victory marks the third consecutive year that Atlanta has lost a decisive Game 5 of the division series at home in Turner Field.
2005 The last-place Pirates name Jim Tracy as the team’s manager to replace the recently fired Lloyd McClendon. The selection of the former Dodger skipper, who will guide the Bucs to a 135-189 record during his two seasons at the helm, marks the first time Pittsburgh has looked outside the organization in nearly two decades to hire its field boss.
2006 On a rainy mid-week afternoon in Manhattan, Yankees pitcher Cory Lidle and his flight instructor Tyler Stanger die as their four-seat plane crashes into an Upper East Side high-rise building. Manny Acta, the Mets’ third base coach, is not sure he will be able to go to his home after tonight’s scheduled Game 1 of the NLCS at Shea Stadium due to damage to the Belaire Condominiums caused by the crash.
2009 In the final game played at the Metrodome, the Yankees advance to the ALCS by defeating the hometown Twins, 4-1. A costly eighth-inning base-running blunder by Nick Punto ends Minnesota’s hopes of a comeback over a talented New York team, including Alex Rodriguez, who went 5-for-11 with two homers and six RBIs in the three-game division series sweep.
2009 Jonathan Papelbon, who had never given up a run in any of his previous 26 postseason innings, allows two inherited runners to score in the eighth and yields another three runs in the ninth, giving the Angels, trailing 5-1 going into the sixth inning, a 7-6 victory over the Red Sox. The Halos’ comeback victory at Fenway completes a three-game sweep of the ALDS over a team that historically had been their nemesis, losing their past four postseason encounters with Boston.
2009 Admitting to a blown call, which led to the decisive run in the Rockies’ 6-5 Game 2 NLDS loss to the Phillies at a very chilly Coors Field, home plate umpire Jerry Meals, after watching a post-game replay, states the ball that glanced off Chase Utley’s leg should not have been in play. To make matters worse, in the same at-bat where the ball was foul, umpire Ron Kulpa ruled the runner safe on a close call, which appeared to have the Philadelphia infielder beat at first base.
2010 With their 3-2 victory over the Braves in Game 4 of the NLDS at Turner Field, the Giants advance to the National League Championship Series to play the Phillies. After the last out, the San Francisco players come onto the field to salute the opposing manager, Bobby Cox, who is retiring after 29 years in the dugout.
2012 For the first time since the divisional playoffs began in 1995, all four series will go the distance to a Game 5 when the Nationals and Orioles knot their respective series against the Cardinals and Yankees. Washington and Baltimore join the A’s and Giants, who also forced a decisive game with victories over the Tigers and Reds in yesterday’s LDS games.
