LYNN — Andover freshman Lexi Linsey missed much of the first half of this season with a broken bone in her hand. On Tuesday at the Tony Conigliaro Memorial Gymnasium, she stepped squarely into the spotlight. Linsey scored 10 of her 17 points in the fourth quarter as the Golden Warriors upended St. Mary’s, 52-41, to win the top girls division of the Spartan Classic. “She just took over and made some big shots,” Andover coach Alan Hibino said. It wasn’t just Linsey’s shooting that got Andover (19-1) over the finish line on Monday, as the Golden Warriors’ defense completely…

The Boston Celtics, sitting in second place in the Eastern Conference, have enjoyed a surprisingly strong campaign this year, despite the fact that Jayson Tatum has not suited up for a single game. That is largely due to the play of his partner-in-crime, Jaylen Brown. In his first season acting as the Celtics’ de facto No. 1 option, Brown has taken his game to another level. In 49 games, Brown is averaging 29.3 points, 6.9 rebounds and 4.7 assists per game while shooting 48.3% from the field, numbers that helped him earn the fifth All-Star selection of his career. Once…
Roman Anthony will have plenty on his shoulders this upcoming Boston Red Sox season, and the budding superstar arrived in Fort Myers prepared to carry the load. Anthony showed up to spring training with noticeably more muscle on his 6-foot-3 frame. After flashing MVP potential as a rookie last season, he’ll be counted on to supply much of the power for a Red Sox lineup that isn’t expected to hit many balls over the fence in 2026. ZiPS projects the Red Sox will be the only MLB club without a player hitting 20-plus home runs next season. Anthony, Trevor Story,…
By JULIA FRANKEL CORTINA D’AMPEZZO, Italy (AP) — The curling drama at the Winter Olympics sent the sport’s governing body scrambling to address a growing controversy and curb conflicting accounts of rule-breaking. The backpedaling came less than 24 hours later. A day after World Curling ramped up monitoring of the matches, it pulled the plug, saying umpires would retreat and be available on request but not by default. The move came after a quick meeting between national curling federations and World Curling on Sunday in which curlers expressed dissatisfaction with the increased surveillance. Athletes wanted less monitoring, not more. Why…
During this past week’s run of press comments from members of the Red Sox organization at Fenway South (including Sam Kennedy, I’m sure you know what I’m talking about), catcher Carlos Narváez got some glowing reviews.Manager Alex Cora noted that Narv/Narvi/The Narv did a great job exceeding expectations in 2025, per Gabrielle Starr the Boston Herald, while being “banged up” the entire time. Red Sox Hall of Famer and current team staff member Jason Varitek commended him for his preparation and mindset in the clubhouse. Cora himself ordained him as the team’s starting backstop, a call that was all but…
