UEFA Under 21 Championship Qualifiers Republic of Ireland U21 3 - 1 England U21 FT The Republic of Ireland Under-21s finished second in the group behind England [AFP via Getty Images] The Republic of Ireland Under-21s handed England their first defeat in qualifying for Euro 2027 to finish second in Group D and secure a play-off position. The table-topping Young Lions had already sealed their place at next year's tournament before Tuesday's game, and took the lead early on when Tyler Dibling tapped in. But the Republic of Ireland fought back superbly as Tommy Lonergan levelled matters in the 21st minute with a driven finish into the bottom corner, before Conor McManus put them ahead just before half-time when he fired in from Trent Kone-Doherty's pass. Lonergan scored his second goal of the match in the second half when he did well to react to a bouncing ball and drove in. Noah Jauny made a great save to deny Tyrique George from reducing the deficit late on. from https://...

Houlka volleyball reaches milestone with first playoff win

-
Once Cody Turman figured out the whole volleyball thing, his team soon followed. Turman began Houlka’s program in 2022, not long after the MHSAA began phasing out slow-pitch softball in favor of more volleyball programs. Five seasons in, the Wildcats just achieved a milestone: their first playoff win, a 3-0 decision against Ashland on Saturday. “It was nice, especially (being) at home, first time we’re ever hosting,” Turman said. “It’s kind of a little bit of symmetry, too, because five years ago our first ever win was 3-1 versus Ashland.” Houlka (13-4) will host Wheeler (17-7) for a Class 1A second-round game on Tuesday. Like a lot of area volleyball coaches, Turman had to learn the game along with his players when he took the reins. When asked if he wanted to lead Houlka’s program, he said, “Well, let me get on some YouTube and figure out what to do.” One of the biggest initial challenges was learning about rotations, which Turman said is “way more complicated than you could imagine ...

Seahawks GM describes Jadarian Price’s injury prognosis--and looks at Joe Mixon

The Seahawks don’t believe Jadarian Price’s injury is going to keep their rookie running back out long term. Yet they are exploring a former two-time Pro Bowl back as a possible fill-in for the meantime. General manager John Schneider spoke during his weekly pregame interview with the Seahawks’ radio network Sunday before kickoff against the Los Angeles Chargers about Price going on injured reserve Saturday. “Yeah, funky injury for him,” Schneider said of the first-round draft choice from Notre Dame first getting hurt in Seattle’s win at Arizona in week two last month. The GM said Price got hurt catching a swing pass out of the backfield and Arizona’s L.J. Collier, a Seahawks first-round pick of Schneider’s in 2019, landed on Price. “It’s an upper-rib deal he’s got going on,” Schneider said. “He fell on it in practice this week. “We don’t see it as a season-ending thing, at all.” Schneider said Price “really sucked it up last week” when he played in Seattle’s loss at Washington in week...
