Drama in Ithaca: Columbia's Riley Weiss was set to go to the free throw line with a chance to tie the game at the end of OT, but the refs waved off the foul as after the clock expired. Harvard wins, 67-65, and gets another Ivy Madness upset as the No. 3 seed. @theixsports.bsky.social #NCAAWBB

51' 1-0 Portland, Olivia Moultrie. Nice run up the middle, a sharp finish, and she pumps her fists and screams accordingly.
She beat the "Free D.C." chants, which were loud, by just a few seconds.

WASHINGTON —
Michele Kang, Alex Morgan, and Sarah Gregorius at a charity event with the Spirit, the NWSL, and a well-known commercial sponsor that I’m pretty sure you can figure out.
I am now told that in fact Ethan Roberts suffered a new concussion in recent days.
It wasn't quite clear in the initial announcement - now it has been clarified.
The #NWSL says Andi Sullivan won’t play for Washington tonight due to illness.
Full story, as Ethan Roberts has almost certainly played his last game for Penn before going elsewhere for a graduate year:

It's my understanding that Washington Post management now regret decimating the Washington Post sports section because they had no idea how much revenue it drove. The clowning is unending. The little men with red plastic noses and flappy shoes just keep piling out of the car.
News just in:
Ethan Roberts is out of the Ivy League tournament for Penn men’s basketball due to a recurrence of symptoms from a concussion he suffered earlier this season.
Penn plays Harvard in the semifinals tomorrow.
“I spent a year off and learned a lot about myself, who I am when I'm not playing. I think that was good for me. But I'm excited to be back, because I am a soccer player and it's what I love to do."
The NWSL is back, and so is Sophia Wilson, with a new perspective and the same goal as always:
The headlines read "Argentinian players strike in protest". But it was not a *strike*. It was an order from the AFA, whose president “Chiqui” Tapia and treasurer Pablo Ariel Toviggino are suspected of embezzling millions of dollars. (By Federico Darío Teijeiro)
