eligibility remaining with the Volunteers It was a surprise departure on the final day to enter the portal took to social media to explain the decision we learned the school [Colorado] was moving in a different direction and we humbly respected that decision by entering the portal," Hood said on X (formerly Twitter) Deion Sanders and Colorado's lack of desire for Hood on the team are surprising considering his talent and the need for an elite starting cornerback opposite DJ McKinney There is likely more to the story than the Buffs just looking to go a different direction or if Hood's

approach Unlike in previous years when he admitted to misreading the car and the evolving track conditions Herta brings improved self-awareness and technical clarity to attacking the Barber race weekend That includes having a more precise vision of what he needs from the No 26 Gainbridge Honda leading into qualifying at 2:30 p.m “Today was one of the more important sessions of the weekend because you get both sets of tires,” Herta said Feels like we’re the only team who didn’t test here in the winter The team really made a statement to roll off the trucks with speed “I do think we have some more left in the tank but I’m not sure what everybody else has.” Alex Palou’s return to Barber Motorsports Park comes with momentum and a fresh look – and possibly a psychological edge The NTT

offseason crossover test in Las Vegas where Formula One driver Yuki Tsunoda drove an NTT INDYCAR SERIES car with the same livery Palou picked up right where he left off after finishing second at Long

best among all drivers since 2021 Will Power arrived at Barber with a rich qualifying pedigree His four poles at the Alabama road course are the most of any driver and part of his all-time record of 70 in the NTT INDYCAR SERIES recent form casts some doubt on whether he can add a fifth Saturday Despite his glowing praise for Barber’s high-commitment layout and ending up fourth in the opening practice in his No Power’s 2025 qualifying performances have been underwhelming His average start of 15.7 across three starts including a low of 21st at The Thermal Club suggests Team Penske hasn’t fully unlocked its one-lap pace yet this year there are reasons to believe this could be a turnaround weekend for Power He turned 19 solid laps in Friday’s practice with a top time of 1:07.7869 just .0399 of a second behind leader Ericsson “It’s funny that you go through those cycles,” Power said We’re definitely quick in all the practices and in the race see if we can make it in the Fast Six and

They've now landed Colorado transfer CB The Tennessee Volunteers were a bit more active during the spring transfer portal window than perhaps they invisioned themselves being intering this portion of the offseason Not only did they lose former five-star QB they also saw starting defensive back Jakobe Thomas enter the portal as well Combine Thomas's exit with the knee injury to Jermod McCoy and the Vols defensive backfield was looking a little thin Hence why the Vols went to the portal on Friday to add former Auburn CB Hood has announced he will be transferring to Tennessee to finish hi college career The Vols have star defensive back Boo Carter back for his sophomore campaign The freshman All-SEC contributor a year ago is expected to get some offensive snaps in 2025 as well BROOKS AUSTIN Rapids Academy forward Colton Swan boosted Rapids 2 to its third consecutive win after finding the back of the net in a 2-3 victory over defending MLS NEXT Pro champions North Texas SC Swan’s game-winning goal earned him the title of MLS NEXT Rising Star of Matchweek 6 marking the second time the Academy striker has been given this award across two seasons in MLS NEXT Pro As the clock was winding down at Choctaw Stadium Colorado had one final push in them to find the back of the net for three points on the night Defender Anderson Rosa was first on the ball crossing a long pass into the box to the far post to find the head of Mamadou Billo Diop The forward made contact with the cross and placed a header that came off the back post to find Academy midfielder Noah Strellanauer Strellnauer was able to center the ball and gave fellow Academy teammate Swan the opportunity to poke one past the North Texas goalkeeper for his third goal of the season Swan’s goal marked the fifth of his professional career and helped Rapids 2 in recording three consecutive wins a feat that had not been accomplished by the team since October of 2023 tying Rapids 2’s all-time record for consecutive road wins In addition to Swan’s stoppage time winner first team midfielder Sam Bassett and forward Diop added goals of their own Rapids 2 will now look ahead towards their first home match

are coming off a two-game sweep of the Chicago Wolves the Admirals haven’t played since their regular-season finale on April 18 The IceHogs erased a 2-0 deficit late in the third period and stole Game 1 3-2 in overtime There wasn’t much success against the Admirals during the regular season They were 0-3-2 in their five games in Milwaukee but four of the five meetings were decided by one goal Rockford only had three wins in 12 regular-season games against the Wolves the old adage about the record books being thrown out in the postseason held true The IceHogs hope for more of the same in the Semifinals It was clear that the Admirals wanted to set a physical tone early as they seemed more interested in finishing their checks than taking shots they had the middle of the defensive zone clogged up at 5v5 giving Milwaukee very few good looks from the prime scoring areas The middle of the ice opened up to start the second period Captain Cal O’Reilly gave the Admirals a 1-0 lead 30 seconds into the frame by beating Drew Commesso to the near post on a wraparound shot Fedor Svechkov doubled the lead 15 seconds later with a wrist shot from the slot The disastrous start to the middle stanza continued about a minute later when Kyle Marino laid out Brett Seney at center ice with a big hit Nolan Allen dropped the gloves to defend his teammate but Marino had the upper hand in the fight Paul Ludwinski scored his first AHL playoff goal to cut the Admirals’ lead in half with just over eight minutes remaining in regulation Jalen Luypen and Jackson Cates got in hard on the forecheck and their hard work was rewarded with Ludwinski’s goal in front of the net the IceHogs tied the game when Zach Sanford found Gerry Mayhew from below the goal line for his third goal in the last two games Colton Dach needed only 12 seconds of overtime to score his first goal of the postseason and stun the crowd at the Panther Arena His goal is tied for the third-fastest overtime goal in Calder Cup Playoffs history so I didn’t have a passing option,” Dach said of the game-winning play Dach returned to game action tonight for the first time since he injured his elbow against the Los Angeles Kings on March 20 He was eager to return to the ice and make a difference in the series “The first game, for me, I’m going to try to be physical early,” Dach said on Tuesday “I’m going to let them know that I’m going to be there every shift We’re going to do our best to let them know that we’re going to be coming every shift.” He drew a roughing penalty on Ozzy Wiesblatt It felt like there was a scrum after every whistle 28 was in the middle of them every chance he got Dach was set up for a one-timer just below the right dot He said he wanted to be noticeable on every shift He had three shots on goal and looked to get involved physically at every turn “He’s a presence out there,” head coach Mark Eaton said “He’s the kind of player you lean on in playoff games like this where it gets physical and chippy He has the size and physicality to withstand that and still make a positive impact The Admirals’ game plan early was to hit anything in a white sweater They used their pent-up energy from 13 days off to set the tone for the series the IceHogs flipped the script in the third period and wore Milwaukee down with a heavy forecheck Eaton expected the Admirals to play this way early and kept the message to his team simple: be patient “That was the biggest thing for us in the third,” he said We were getting pucks through the neutral zone and getting them behind their D We weathered their storm after they got a couple of quick ones in the second It was encouraging to see many of the younger players stay within the structure of their game while absorbing a barrage of hits It is easy to get caught up in the emotion and lose control but that never happened with the IceHogs’ young core “That’s part of the learning process,” Eaton said They’re very structured in the way they play We have to be ok not chasing and playing the long game Game 2 of this series will be back in Milwaukee on Saturday night as the IceHogs look to take a 2-0 stranglehold before returning
