DULUTH, Minn. – In the second day of competition at the NSIC Outdoor Track and Field Championships, two Vikings emerged with an individual conference crown while others booked their ticket to tomorrow’s event finals.

Patriots promote internally for top scouting role – 98.5 The Sports Hub

The Patriots have promoted one of their national scouts, Tony Kinkela, to become their director of college scouting, per Albert Breer. The Patriots’ former director, Camren Williams, left the team to become the Broncos’ co-director of player personnel last month.

Kinkela spent 11 years scouting for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers before coming to New England in 2022. The Patriots’ scouting department looks very different at the top entering the 2025 season.

Kinkela joins AJ Highsmith as a new, first time director in Foxborough. Highsmith was recently hired as the director of pro scouting – also his first time in a director position.

The Patriots recruitment and operations department is still headed by the same executive vice president of player personnel Eliot Wolf, but the turnover at the top of the scouting departments could point to the changes that have been brought in by Mike Vrabel and new senior vice president of player personnel Ryan Cowden.

The Patriots have had underwhelming drafts for going on a decade. It will be interesting to see how the drafting improves with Kinkela now playing a critical role.

About Hayward Field

Hayward Field, which was built in 1919, is no stranger to top-tier track and field events, including the Diamond League and the U.S. Olympic Team Trials.

The venue is named after Bill Hayward, who ran the University of Oregon track and field program from 1904 to 1947. Though it originally was intended for Ducks football, many additions and renovations over the century have helped it become a premier destination.

In September 2023, the venue became the first facility outside of Zurich or Brussels to host the two-day season-ending Wanda Diamond League Final, where the year’s 32 overall champions were crowned.

What Schools Won The Team Titles At The 2025 NCAA Division I Men’s And Women’s Outdoor Track And Field Championships?

The Arkansas women took home the outdoor team title in 2024, sweeping the indoor and outdoor championships for the 2023-2024 season.

Florida, led by legendary head coach Mike Holloway, secured the men’s title in 2024, giving the Gators three consecutive outdoor men’s titles. Florida became the first team to three-peat since Texas A&M (2009-2011).

What Schools Have Won The Most Titles At The NCAA Division I Outdoor Track And Field Championships?

The NCAA Division I Men’s Outdoor Track and Field Championships first was held in 1921.

USC owns the most men’s titles with 25, while Arkansas is the only other program with 10 or more (10).

The NCAA Division I Women’s Outdoor Track and Field Championships first was held in 1982.

LSU has won the most women’s titles with 14. The next-closest is Texas with five.

At least 6,000 players are expected to come from the U.S. and Canada to compete and connect with friends at the three-day tournament held at Memorial Park in Pottstown beginning on June 20.

“We have lots of regulars and big groups coming from New York City and Boston who’ve been coming for years,“ Kaas said. “Many of them met there.”

Thousands of spectators

A couple of thousand spectators usually come to watch the action that includes AVP professional players. $7,000 in prize money will be awarded to pro players.

A $10 spectator ticket can be purchased in advance online or at the entrance on the day of the event.

Aside from Memorial Park, which serves as the main field, there are two satellite fields for competition — one in Pottsgrove and the other in North Coventry. In total, there are 225 grass volleyball courts that will be in use.

At the event, you’ll find lots of food trucks and a beer tent with craft beers.

Completed pedestrian bridge

New this year is a completed pedestrian bridge that has been in the works for a few years, so Kaas is pleased that no shuttles will be necessary to transport people this year.

The bridge connects the atmosphere,“ he said. “We had a boat and a shuttle, and now that the bridge is in, we don’t need to have that.”

Kaas, a union heavy equipment operator by profession, shared his motivation behind continuing the annual event for over three decades.

“It’s a lot of work, but there are many who come to me and say, ’this is my Christmas’,” he said. “I do it because it means so much to so many.”

The Pottstown Rumble will be held June 20-22, 2025, at Pottstown Memorial Park, 75 W. King St., Pottstown. For more information, to get a spectator ticket, or to register to play, visit www.pottstownrumble.com.

The road to Ningbo starts now for the best men’s volleyball teams in the world at the 2025 FIVB men’s Volleyball Nations League (11 June – 3 August).

After the women’s competition got underway on 4 June, the men follow suit the following week among the 18 national teams competing to reach the final round in the People’s Republic of China.

Of those qualified nations, there are three former VNL winners. Defending champions France arrive as the double Olympic champions following their momentous gold at Paris 2024, a few weeks after they had claimed their second Nations League title.

Olympic silver medallists Poland last lifted the VNL trophy in 2023, and with one of the final round pools being played in Gdansk, will hope the home advantage can help them over the line and into the finals.

The only present champion not from the European continent are Brazil, one of only two South American nations to have qualified. Can they hit their stride ahead of the Volleyball World Championships later this year in the Philippines?

Here is what you need to know about the 2025 men’s VNL.
