A Stanford University student was killed this past Saturday in a horrible accident near campus.
The victim, who was identified as Aradshar Chaddar, was riding an electric bike near Palm Drive and Arboretum Road when he was struck by another vehicle. He was transported to Stanford Hospital where he was eventually pronounced dead.
Stanford released a letter this week regarding this tragic accident. There’ll be services provided for those in the community impacted by Chaddar’s death.
“While at Stanford, Aradshar explored a variety of academic and professional interests, including but not limited to membership in Alpha Kappa Psi and the Pre-Law Society,” the university said. “Aradshar was the current President of the Stanford Democrats and contributed to The Stanford Daily in his freshman year. His family has been notified and we will be doing everything possible to support them in the days and weeks ahead.
“We hold Aradshar’s friends, residential community, professors, and loved ones in our thoughts as they process this very sad news. Support resources are available to anyone affected by Aradshar’s passing, including CAPS 24/7 on-call services at (650) 723-3785 and the Office for Religious and Spiritual Life. For a comprehensive listing of mental health and well-being resources available to students, please visit the Mental Health Resources at Stanford webpage, along with dedicated community resources through The Markaz.”
After Stanford confirmed this devastating news, people offered their thoughts and prayers to the Chaddar family.
“This is so sad,” one person wrote. “Praying for his family.”
“Heartbreaking. Sounds like driver was making a right from Palm onto Arboretum? People make that turn so fast to skip over towards the mall,” another person said.
“So sorry for the Chaddar family’s loss,” a third person added.
The authorities in California are still investigating this situation. As of now, no arrests have been made.
We’re keeping the Chaddar family in our thoughts.

The post Would Tom Brady have left Michigan in NIL transfer era? appeared first on ClutchPoints.
Before he was an analyst for Fox Sports. Before he purchased a minority share of the Las Vegas Raiders. Before he won a Super Bowl with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. And before he even took the New England Patriots on an absolute run after taking the starting spot away from Drew Bledsoe, Tom Brady was a Day 3 prospect competing for playing time with Drew Henson at the University of Michigan.

Now, in hindsight, the idea of Brady having to split playing time in college is crazy, as he’s now firmly in the “GOAT” conversation at the NFL level but at the time, head coach Lloyd Carr didn’t exceptionally comfortable with either player as his unquestioned top star and thus, would alternate the two future sixth round picks as he saw fit.
In 1999, there wasn’t much Brady could do about his situation, but in 2025, when the transfer portal has changed the business of college football forever, would he have considered making a move away from Michigan to greener pastures and an unquestioned starting job? Well, Brady was asked that question on The Joel Klatt Show and had a very interesting answer indeed.
“It’s such a hypothetical situation to a question to think about. The only thing I can answer is to say that based on what my experience was I wouldn’t want it any other way than what I the way that I did it,” Tom Brady noted.
“My college experience was very challenging. It was very competitive. The lessons I learned in college that I referred to earlier, and certainly about competition, those traits transformed my life as a professional. I was ready to compete against anybody because the competition in college toughened me up so much that I had a self-belief and self-confidence in myself that whatever I was faced I could overcome that.”

Did Brady’s time in college set him up for the challenges of the NFL, where he was promised nothing and had to compete for everything? In his opinion, that certainly contributed to it, but one thing is for sure: If Brady had been highlighted more on another team, he might not have fallen to the Patriots at pick 199, effectively changing NFL history forever.

LSU gymnastics commit Hezly Rivera won the U.S. Gymnastics all-around title during Sunday’s competition in New Orleans, LA.
The 17-year-old took home the national championship with 112.000 total points between both days of the meet and became the title’s youngest winner since 2017. She won gold outright in beam and floor and then tied for the top spot on bars.
Rivera earned a selection on the 2024 Olympics team alongside the sport’s biggest names, such as Simone Biles and Suni Lee. She was the youngest Olympian from the United States during the games in Paris.
After returning from Paris, 16-year-old Rivera committed to LSU in a post on her social media account in September. She chose the then-reigning national champions as her collegiate team. Her first competitive season for the Tigers is slated for 2027.
“I am so blessed and excited to announce that I have verbally committed to Louisiana State University on a full athletic scholarship. Thank you to my family, coaches, and teammates for helping me throughout this process. I also want to thank all the girls, coaches, and staff at LSU for everything,” Rivera said.

Clarence Karteh is entering uncharted territory in his seventh season at the helm of the Centralia College women’s soccer program.
Over 70% of his roster — 24 out of 34 players — is made up of freshmen.
In order for Karteh’s Trailblazers to earn their first playoff berth in the program’s history that dates back to 2016, he and his coaching staff are instilling a new philosophy.
Ubuntu, an ancient African word that roughly translates to “I am because we are,” spread across the back of every Centralia College player’s warmup shirts before their Saturday scrimmages against Pacific Northwest Christian College and Clackamas Community College.
In the first week of training for the 2025 campaign, Karteh and his staff have focused on the values of teamwork and how unity overpowers individualism in soccer. With such a young roster, they’ve also been locked in on the fundamentals and adjusting to the junior college level.
“It’s a new team. We’re really trying to find our niche in terms of how we want to play and our style of play,” Karteh said. “Our identity is we want to be the best possession team. We want to be able to maintain possession, and when we don’t have possession, we want to press.”
The Trailblazers defeated Pacific Northwest Christian College 2-0 Saturday afternoon in the opener before falling 2-1 to Clackamas in the nightcap, with the latter contest featuring three 30-minute periods. Karteh was impressed with his team’s defensive effort even in losing fashion to Clackamas.
“Even though the result did not go our way, I’m pleased with the performance. Defensively, we were strong. I felt like we moved the ball really well,” he said.
Nearly two-thirds of the Blazers’ goal production from a season ago is gone, although leading scorer and Timberline High School graduate Maylania Mikaele is back after netting eight goals last fall. Celestine Allsup, a central midfielder and right wing and fellow Timberline grad, is set for a more significant workload as a sophomore, while Felicity Phillips is one of the top defenders for Centralia College.
Karteh expects Allison Woods, Kate Wisnewski and Azlyn Olofson to contribute in their debut season. Bailey Evans also scored a goal in her first college scrimmage. Overall, the unprecedented freshmen group has impressed the coaching staff in the first week of training.
“They’ve bought in. They’re eager to learn from our coaching staff, who are doing a really good job of trying to break down the game for them,” Karteh said. “Every day in training, they’re asking questions in terms of our system and our style. I’m really pleased that they want to learn and they want to compete.”
Karteh believes the program is heading in the right direction after going 9-6-1 in 2024 for its second nine-win season in three years. But the postseason has been elusive, and the Blazers have their eyes on a top-three slot in the Northwest Athletic Conference in order to get there.
“I think we have a really good shot this year if we can get everything together and working at the right time,” Karteh said. “The ultimate goal for us is to really do well in our conference and compete for a top-three spot. One of the things our program hasn’t done yet is make it to the playoffs, and our goal this year is to try to push for that. But we don’t want to look too much ahead. We just want to take it game by game and see where we land.”
Centralia College will open the season at home against Everett Community College on Saturday, Sept. 6 at 2 p.m.

CAROLINA, Puerto Rico—The Indiana Hoosiers dug a 20-point first-half deficit before pulling out a last-second victory over Mega Superbet on Monday afternoon. Superbet led 50-30 at halftime before Lamar Wilkerson and Tucker DeVries found their footing in the second half to lead the charge. The Hoosiers leave Puerto Rico 3-0 on the week-long adventure and head back to Bloomington to get prepared for the regular season.
Tayton Conerway was the only Hoosier who looked comfortable in the first half. He changed of speed with the dribble to get into the lane for scores and kickout passes. He scored 18 of Indiana’s 30 first-half points.
Wilkerson and DeVries went scoreless in the first half on limited shot attempts, much like Saturday against the same opponent. The second half was a different story as the two main Indiana scorers combined for 30 points in the second half, with Wilkerson tallying 17.
Peegs.com’s Trevor Andershock and Jeff Rabjohns discuss the latest Indiana comeback and a few overall thoughts on the exhibition trip for the Hoosiers.

UConn men’s hockey releases 2025-26 schedule
The encore to UConn men’s hockey’s best season ever is set. On Monday, the Huskies released their complete 2025-26 schedule.

The encore to UConn men’s hockey’s best season ever is set. On Monday, the Huskies released their complete 2025-26 schedule.
The new campaign begins on Friday, Oct. 3 with weekend series at Colorado College. UConn has the next weekend off before facing Ohio State for two at home on Oct. 17-18. The Huskies then begin Hockey East play with a home-and-home series against Boston University the following weekend.
The first half ends at Toscano Family Ice Forum against Merrimack on Dec. 6 and resumes with a New Year’s Eve tilt in Storrs versus LIU. The regular season concludes with a Mar. 7 trip to Providence.
The Huskies will play at PeoplesBank Arena (formerly the XL Center) in Hartford on four occasions: Oct. 18 (Ohio State), Stonehill (Nov. 25), UMass Lowell (Jan. 9) and Boston College (Feb. 21).
UConn will also face Harvard (Oct. 31 at home) and LIU (Jan. 31 at home; Jan. 3 away) in standard non-conference action, while the sixth annual Connecticut Ice tournament will be held on Jan. 23-24 at Yale’s Ingalls Rink. The Huskies will take on the host Bulldogs in the opening round on Friday.
In Hockey East, UConn will host Vermont for two (Jan. 16-17) while traveling to Maine for a pair (Feb. 13-14) — the only two opponents that aren’t part of a home-and-home. The Huskies will also play four teams three times: Merrimack (Nov. 1 and Dec. 6 at home; Dec. 5 away), UNH (Nov. 22 and Mar. 5 at home; Nov. 21 away), Northeastern (Nov. 15 and Feb. 6 away; Nov. 14 home) and Providence (Nov. 8, Mar. 7 away; Nov. 7 home).
All but three contests are scheduled for either a Friday or Saturday. The exceptions are a Tuesday night matchup with Stonehill, a New Year’s Eve meeting with LIU on a Wednesday, and a Thursday contest with UNH — all of which are at home.
Unlike last season when the Huskies played 12 of 13 games on the road at one point but were home for the entire month of February, the splits are much more balanced this year. UConn has a four-game home stand early in the season and a four straight road games at the end of the year, but nothing longer than that.
In total, UConn will play 34 games with exactly half of them coming on home ice.
