BRIDGEWATER – For a shot at being remembered, sometimes it’s worth trying something new. Joseph Case High School’s volleyball squad decided to make the leap to Div. 3, and it’s paying dividends. Senior outside hitter Madilyn Botelho (16 kills, 14 digs, three aces) and freshman Kayla Dowdell (10 kills, three blocks) led a complete team effort Wednesday, as the third-seeded Cardinals punched their first ticket to a title match since 2022 with a memorable 3-1 victory over reigning state champion and No. 2 Medfield, 3-1. Faced with a perennial juggernaut, the Cardinals showed no fear to start, opening with a…

On the night that he won his second consecutive Cy Young Award, Detroit Tigers ace Tarik Skubal addressed the trade rumors that have been swirling around his name in recent weeks. “Contract extension stuff is a little bit different, but trade stuff is out of my control,” Skubal said, per Detroit Free Press‘ Evan Petzold. “I’ve given everything I have to this organization. I want to be a Tiger for a very long time. … I love Detroit. Hopefully, I’m here. That’s where I’m at with all of that.” Tarik Skubal: “Contract extension stuff is a little bit different, but…
Among all of the other offseason discourse, a question looms large: “What’s the best thing to do about Jarren Duran?” The Sox just came to an agreement on a new salary number with him, but there’s still a definite chance he gets traded away. Would keeping him make more sense, or would trading him be the better idea?There are pros and cons to both. Duran does have a very devoted fanbase that would be devastated if he left. He brings a lot of fire and heart to the team, and the celebratory Wally Head (who has opted for free agency)…
The ankle sprain that sent Hugo Gonzalez to the locker room Tuesday night in Philadelphia proved to be no more than a scare. The Celtics rookie did not re-enter his team’s 102-100 loss to the 76ers, but he was cleared to play Wednesday night against the Grizzlies after initially being listed as probable. “He’s good to go,” Mazzulla said before tipoff at TD Garden, adding that Gonzalez would not have a minutes restriction Gonzalez’s six minutes against Philly were his fewest in a game since Oct. 29. After being a healthy DNP in Boston’s season opener, the 19-year-old quickly emerged…
Rob Gronkowski has officially retired as a member of the Patriots, fulfilling the request from his late friend Susan Hurley — a New England philanthropist who he partnered with to create Gronk Playground in Boston. In August, Gronkowski and Hurley achieved a milestone when they opened up the fully ADA-accessible park, designed for children of all ages and abilities, at the Esplanade along the Charles River. At the ribbon-cutting ceremony, Hurley — a North Reading native who founded CharityTeams, a small business that helps nonprofits raise funds through athletic events — made an appeal to her friend and Patriots owner Robert…

You already had to squint to see any chance of the Jets upsetting the Patriots on Thursday night. Now, you won’t see any at all. On Wednesday, New York ruled out star receiver Garrett Wilson and cornerback Azareye’h Thomas for the Week 11 matchup in New England. Wilson, arguably the Jets’ best player, is nursing a knee injury, whereas Thomas is dealing with a concussion. The Jets already were without defensive tackle Quinnen Williams and cornerback Sauce Gardner, both of whom were traded earlier this month. But the loss of Wilson will leave New York with virtually no star power,…
For the small but vocal subset of Bruins fans who were hoping their team tanked this season and joined the chase for top prospects Gavin McKenna or Keaton Verhoeff, we have some heartbreaking news for you. The Bruins might actually be pretty good. Don’t get me wrong. It would be wise to hold back a piece of your heart before throwing it all on the bandwagon. Every game in this current seven-game win streak that has them at 11-7 has been a battle – even Tuesday’s 5-3 win over Toronto when the Maple Leafs looked disinterested to start and then…
