Eagles wanna accidentally hit the reset button on the Nintendo.

How a Butler teacher’s viral dunk over ESPN’s Tony Reali on Dan Le Batard Show came to be: ‘It was pretty wild’ Jon McKay won’t be remembered for a storied high school basketball career, he jokingly admitted, but his dunks in a Miami gym a few weeks ago will go down as his greatest basketball achievement. McKay...

Didn't think the ven diagram of covering Butler High would include a viral video of one of its own dunking on @tonyreali.bsky.social on @lebatardshow.bsky.social.

For those who get the show: Jon McKay's story ⬇️⬇️

OK, OK. The How to Train Your Dragon soundtrack kinda slaps. (He says having never seen the original in full.)

Ballgame. Consecutive HBPs leads to the final run, and Karns City shuts out Keystone 10-0 in 4 innings, completing a two-game sweep by a combined 18-0.

It's 8-0 Karns City now after 4 innings. Gremlins have scored 36 unanswered runs in the last four games (3-0 previous three games, of course). At'll do.

RECAP: Seneca Valley baseball’s Ryan Piekutoski mashes, drives in 8th-inning game-winner against Butler

Game 2 of this Pullman Park doubleheader started 45 minutes late. Karns City popped Keystone for 7 runs in the home half of the 2nd. The reporter is rooting for deadline right now.

Seneca Valley tacks on a few more runs and takes Game 1 of the series 7-1.

After driving in the go-ahead run, Piekutoski comes around to score on Olayer's single here to make it 3-1 Seneca Valley T8. Rebholz then helps his own cause with a single to right, 4-1.

That's one way to end a threat. Cuffman thrown out trying to steal 3B, so we head to the 7th with Seneca Valley and Butler still tied 1-1.

Best works out of a runners on the corners jam to keep things tied at 1-1. He settled in for a while, T5 was his roughest inning since the first.

Butler ties it on an error at SS. Boring ripped a hard one there, Lenyk delayed just enough to obscure the eyesight of Cahall and then scored from 2B to make it 1-1 after 2.

Hanging out at Pullman Park for some WPIAL and then District 9 baseball.

Seneca Valley leads Butler 1-0 after 1. Tornado had a chance to tie it, but Remholz hung up Richter on a breaking ball.

Big day from Moniteau's Ashton Grossman. Cleared a PR of 15-0 to win gold, then tried for the Butler Invite record of 15-8. Missed it, but here's his best attempt at it.

Girls 100 final Heat 2.

What's a stake today for the 94 teams at Art Bernardi Stadium.

Catching the #ButlerInvite today. 16-4 for Butler's Aubrey Rock in the long jump. These are the finals.

North Catholic's Lazzara ripped off a big 18-4 a bit ago.

And then an impressive 16-10 from Seneca Valley's Jordan Monteleone, who won the high jump earlier.

Butler's Aubrey Rock with, I believe, a 16-1.5 in the long jump if I heard correctly.

Freeport's Michael Braun wins the boys 800, Butler's Zach Slear not far behind in second.

North Catholic's Lazzara wins the girls 100 by .01.

Butler 4x100 relay wins pretty convincingly.
