WATERTOWN – With his team trailing by one point in the final seconds, Buckingham Browne & Nichols senior Vince Snoonian lined up for a daunting 41-yard field goal. The moment didn’t faze the Cornell commit as he drilled the kick to give the Knights a 24-22 victory over Milton Academy on Saturday evening. “Blanking out the noise in my mind was the biggest thing,” Snoonian said. “It’s just another kick, I just treat it as an extra point. I don’t see it as anything other than that.” The game saw three lead changes in the final four minutes, and Knights…

The Boston Celtics had a busy offseason, and as a result, there are a lot of new faces in town. One of those new faces, first-round rookie Hugo Gonzalez, appears to have already made quite an impression on Payton Pritchard, one of the holdovers from the C’s offseason dealings. With the Celtics looking to duck under the second apron of the league’s new salary cap, they ended up being forced to move on from Jrue Holiday, Kristaps Porzingis, Al Horford and Luke Kornet over the past few months. Beyond that, Jayson Tatum is set to miss most of the season…
Boston Celtics fans held their collective breath Wednesday night when Jaylen Brown hobbled off the TD Garden floor grabbing his left hamstring. But it appears Brown avoided serious injury. Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla told reporters Friday that Brown is considered “day-to-day” with his left hamstring injury, adding that All-Star wing was able to participate in everything but the live portion of Friday’s practice. “I expect him to be at his best every single day, and then we’ll take it from there,” Mazzulla said of Brown. “But just one day at a time.” Whether Brown will suit up for Boston’s…
The Patriots elevated running back Terrell Jennings and cornerback Miles Battle from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday. Jennings, who was also elevated last week, will serve as depth behind running backs Rhamondre Stevenson and TreVeyon Henderson with Antonio Gibson out for the season. Jennings was relegated to special teams duties in his season debut last week. Battle serves as additional cornerback depth with Charles Woods questionable with a knee injury after missing practice Thursday and Friday. Battle gets the call-up over fellow practice-squad cornerback Kobee Minor. He appeared in one game last season and made two tackles.…
Marco Sturm tweaked his lineup as the Bruins face another major test against the Colorado Avalanche on Saturday night at Ball Arena (9 pm). While Sturm said that Hampus Lindholm (lower body) is a game-time decision, he shuffled the forward lines. John Beecher will make his season debut on the fourth line and Jeffrey Viel will come out of the lineup. He kept Pavel Zacha on the first line with Elias Lindholm and David Pastrnak, which finished the game in Vegas together. Morgan Geekie dropped to a second line with Casey Mittelstadt and Mikey Eyssimont. Viktor Arvidsson, still looking for…
The Boston Bruins could soon be getting star defenseman Hampus Lindholm back in the lineup. Lindholm has missed the Bruins’ last three games due to a lower-body injury. Ahead of Boston’s road game against the Colorado Avalanche on Saturday, Bruins head coach Marco Sturm gave a positive update on Lindholm. The coach called Lindholm a true game-time decision on Saturday. “It’s still going to be a game-time decision, but he definitely looks better today,” Sturm said to reporters on Saturday. “I would say yes, but we will decide right before (the game).” Lindholm was on the second power-play unit during…

The Patriots string of three-straight road games ends Sunday when they travel to Tennessee to take on the Titans. This one should mean extra for head coach Mike Vrabel, who was Titans head coach for six years before getting fired following the 2023 season. The Titans already fired Vrabel’s replacement, Brian Callahan, this week, with Mike McCoy taking over as interim head coach. Here’s what we’re watching as the Patriots try to improve their record to 5-2: • Quarterback Drake Maye has now gone three games without turning the ball over. The Patriots are 4-0 when he avoids turnovers. His…
The Red Sox bullpen took a big step forward in 2025, posting a 3.41 ERA that ranked second in MLB behind only the San Diego Padres. But how did each reliever fare individually? Today we conclude our report card series by handing out grades for the relievers. Aroldis Chapman: A+ Even at age 37 Chapman remained among the hardest throwers in baseball, hitting 103 mph on the radar gun while routinely overpowering opposing hitters. But while that was impressive enough, what really stood out about Chapman’s stellar season was his command. The veteran closer’s 6.6% walk rate this season was…
