Eighteen University of Auckland students are heading to the World University Games in Germany.

Engineering student Flynn Howarth will be representing Aotearoa New Zealand in water polo.

Eighteen students from Waipapa Taumata Rau, University of Auckland have been selected to represent New Zealand at this year’s FISU World University Games in Germany, held from 16-27 July.  

 

They’re part of a wider team of 84 student athletes competing across multiple sports at the world’s second-largest multi-sport event after the Olympics. The Games bring together more than 8,500 student athletes and officials from over 150 countries, and often serve as a stepping stone towards Commonwealth and Olympic Games representation. 

 

The University of Auckland athletes, who are all part of the University’s High Performance Support Programme, will compete in disciplines including archery, athletics, artistic and rhythmic gymnastics, beach volleyball, fencing, rowing, and water polo. 

 

Four of them share their thoughts ahead of the Games.

Lex Revell-Lewis – Athletics

Bachelor of Engineering (Honours)

Athletics

Lex Revell-Lewis is a New Zealand 400m record holder.

New Zealand 400m record holder Lex Revell-Lewis got his start in athletics through his local club as a young child. 

 

“Club nights were on Wednesday after school and my parents would take me along to participate in all the fun activities there were to offer. I started at a young age and haven’t looked back,” he says. 

 

At the Games, Lex will compete in the 400m, the 4x400m men’s relay, and the mixed 4x400m relay. He says he’s feeling “excited about the possibilities and curious about the outcomes.”

 

“My hopes are to lower my current national record in the 400m even further, which should put me in medal contention,” he says.

Isabella Matthews – Archery 

Bachelor of Arts

Archery

Isabella Matthews’ love of archery began at age ten.

Isabella Matthews says her love of archery began after reading Suzanne Collins’ dystopian series, The Hunger Games

 

“I was ten … I wanted to be Katniss Everdeen. I wasn’t very good at the sport, but I absolutely fell in love with it. Over time, the sport became its own thing for me, and I was doing it because I wanted to see how far I could go,” she says. 

 

Now representing Aotearoa New Zealand for the fifth time, Isabella will compete in the recurve division at her second major international tournament, just weeks after her first. 

 

“It’s super cool to be able to compete internationally back-to-back. I’m also excited to be competing against some of the world’s best archers and meeting other athletes. My hopes for the future are to win a medal at an international World Archery tournament, whether that’s individually or in a team.”

Arie Rasmussen-Magasiva – Rowing 

Bachelor of Commerce and Global Studies (Conjoint)

Arie Rasmussen-Magasiva first gave rowing a go in high school after his friends signed up, and he hasn’t looked back. 

 

“I kind of just followed them in and thought it would be good fun, but ever since then I’ve been locked in,” he says. “My family never had a history in the sport and I’d never really heard much about it so rowing was very new to me, but now I can’t imagine what I’d do with my time without it.”

 

Arie will be racing in the single sculls event in Germany, where he’ll be competing internationally for the first time. 

 

“I’m feeling pretty nervous as it’s my first big international competition racing against athletes from countries all over. But I back myself, the training I’ve been doing and the effort I’ve put in, and I’m honestly just excited to give it everything and get as much out of this experience as I can.”

 

Arie’s long-term goal is to eventually make the Olympics. 

 

“LA 2028, that’s the big goal right now. To get there, I’ll need to earn a spot in the New Zealand Elite squad, so I’m going to keep grinding away over the next few years and see if I can make my dream come true.”

Havana Hopman – Rhythmic Gymnastics

Bachelor of Science

Rhythmic Gymnastics

Havana Hopman is a multiple New Zealand rhythmic gymnastics champion.

A multiple New Zealand champion, Havana Hopman first discovered rhythmic gymnastics at the age of seven while doing artistic gymnastics.

“I remember seeing a video of someone throwing a ball and catching it behind their head. I was mesmerised,” she says. “My parents sent me to try it out, and I’ve been in love with the sport ever since.”

Now, Havana is preparing to compete on the world stage.

“I can’t wait to get out there and perform everything we’ve been working on. I’m very proud to be representing the fern on my chest. I hope to just really enjoy it, soak it all up.”

Chicago White Sox Trade With Toronto Blue Jays For Minor League Outfielder

CHICAGO –– The White Sox and Blue Jays wrapped up a three-game series at Rate Field on Wednesday, with Toronto winning two of three games. One day later, the teams announced a trade.

The White Sox acquired outfielder Will Robertson in exchange for cash considerations and optioned him to Triple-A Charlotte. Robertson, 27, has spent a majority of the season with the Triple-A Buffalo Bisons, but played three games with the Blue Jays in June.

Across 233 minor league plate appearances in 2025, the left-handed hitter slashed .292/.403/.578 with 14 home runs, 11 doubles, 44 RBIs, 39 runs, one stolen base, 36 walks and 57 strikeouts. He recorded one hit in 12 plate appearances with the Blue Jays, representing his first stint in the major leagues.

Robertson has played all three outfield positions this season, with the most coming in right field. He has spent his entire professional career with the Blue Jays, who drafted him in the fourth round of the 2019 MLB Draft out of Creighton University.

The White Sox have no shortage of outfielders on the major league roster, including Luis Robert Jr., Andrew Benintendi, Mike Tauchman, Michael A. Taylor, Austin Slater. But the team also placed Brooks Baldwin on the 10-day injured list on Wednesday with a lower back strain. He had appeared in seven straight games in center field to begin July, and was replaced by first baseman Tim Elko.

The July 31 trade deadline is also approaching, and the White Sox are likely to be sellers due to their 31-62 record. That could create a path for Robertson to join the major league roster at some point this season.

The Knights have four road games against the Memphis Redbirds before the All-Star break. Thursday’s game is scheduled for 8:05 p.m. ET.

Baylor volleyball alumna Avery Skinner is making waves once again with Team USA, this time in the 2025 installment of the Volleyball Nations’ League (VNL) week 3 in Arlington, Texas.

JULY 9 – VERSUS THAILAND

Skinner entered the lineup for the first time this VNL tournament and had a heck of a showing with a team-high 22 points, 19 kills and 10 digs, also tacking on two blocks and an ace. The native Texan had a .324 hitting efficiency in her 2025 VNL debut, helping the the U.S. Women’s National Team defeat Thailand, 3-1 (28-26, 21-25, 27-25, 25-15).

“Thailand is an amazing team. We knew the rallies were going to be long, so for us, it was about being patient, not trying to score necessarily on the first ball but when we got our chance, then going for it,” Skinner commented. “It was special. I have been so excited waiting for this match. I’m glad we could come out and get a win. It’s really fun being back with this group. Coming to Arlington is so fun because we get to play in front of our crowd. We are grateful for all the fans who have come out to support us.”

Jacksonville, Fla. – The Jacksonville University beach volleyball team announced Thursday the hiring of Emily Kubicsko as the team’s new assistant coach.  Kubicsko joins in a coaching role after a decorated four-year career with the team as a student-athlete. 

“I am thrilled to welcome Emily to our staff this year,” head coach Dylan Hough said. “Over the past four years, she has been a foundational part of our program’s growth, and I’m excited to see her continue to elevate JU Beach in this new role. Emily is an exceptional teammate, leader, student, and friend. Her character and work ethic have always set the standard, and I have no doubt she will thrive and make a lasting impact in this new position.” 

During her career as an athlete, Kubicsko etched herself as the program’s all-time wins leader. 

She made an immediate impact as a freshman, appearing in 34 matches and helping the Dolphins to their most single-season wins in program history. During that 2022 campaign, she broke the freshman wins record alongside Sydney Eckhardt, and set the single-season record at the 2’s flight with Eckhardt. 

The next year, she set a new record for wins by 1’s pair in a single season by seven wins with 24. After another 16 wins in her junior year, she was only five wins shy of the all-time win record in Jacksonville Beach Volleyball history. 

Heading into her senior campaign, Kubicsko earned preseason All-ASUN honors. Fourteen games into the 2025 season, she became the all-time wins leader in Jacksonville University history. She wrapped up her illustrious career with 72 wins, 11 more than the previous record holder.  

Her senior season earned her Second-Team All-ASUN honors. Her 2022 class graduated as the winningest in program history.
