A four-year varsity standout at Bloomfield Hills Cranbrook Kingswood, Izzy Scane rewrote the MHSAA record book for her sport while leading the Cranes to four MHSAA Finals appearances and two championships from 2015-18.

She scored at least three goals in all four of those title-deciding games, with seven goals in a thrilling 17-16 double-overtime win over East Grand Rapids in the 2017 Division 2 Final and five goals with an assist in an 18-6 championship win over Okemos as a senior in 2018.

Her 461 career goals stood as the state record until 2024, and she still holds the record for career points with 577, combining 461 goals and 116 assists over 93 games. In total, she is listed 14 times in the MHSAA record book.

After high school, Scane starred at Northwestern University. She helped the Wildcats reach five NCAA Tournaments, with the Wildcats winning the Division I national title in 2023 and finishing runners-up in 2024. She played in national semifinals her other three seasons.

Scane’s college career also was record-setting. In 2021, she led the nation with 6.12 goals per game, scoring 98 in just 16 games — still the best goals-per-game average in NCAA history. In 2024, she broke the NCAA Division I career goals record, finishing with 376 and 483 points over 84 games. She surpassed the previous goals record of 358 set by Charlotte North and ended as the second-highest point scorer in NCAA history. She also holds multiple NCAA championship tournament records, including most career goals with 63 and most career points with 86.

Scane was named winner of the Tewaaraton Award — the top honor in college lacrosse — in both 2023 and 2024. She also earned Big Ten Attacker of the Year three times and was recognized with numerous All-America honors.

After college, she was selected first overall in the 2024 Athletes Unlimited Lacrosse college draft and played in that league until it ended after her first season. She now plays in the Women’s Lacrosse League.

Hamilton College goalie Jack Fried ’25 (Larchmont, N.Y./Mamaroneck HS) was selected for the 2025 U.S. Intercollegiate Lacrosse Association (USILA) Division III Men’s All-America Team on Thursday, May 22 when the organization announced their award winners.

Fried, who made the second team in 2024, was one of 15 goalies who received honorable mention recognition. Players selected for all-American were nominated by their coach and then received votes from the All-American Committee.

Fried played in the USILA Division III Men’s Senior All-Star Game for the North team on Friday, May 23. He finished the season with a 10.98 goals against average, a .543 save percentage and 175 saves in 14 starts. Fried ended up with exactly 500 career saves — just the fifth goalie in Hamilton men’s lacrosse history to reach the milestone.

Fried registered 16 stops twice in back-to-back conference wins against Trinity College and Williams College. He turned away 13 shots, including one with 4.5 seconds left in the fourth quarter, in a 12-11 victory against conference opponent Connecticut College. Fried made 15 saves in an overtime setback at Bowdoin College in a 2025 New England Small College Athletic Conference championship quarterfinal.

 

SEC AD says the only way forward for college athletics is collective bargaining

If you’re a fan of college athletics—especially here in the heart of Big Blue Nation—you’ve probably felt the ground shifting under your feet. And now, Tennessee athletic director Danny White just confirmed what many feared and others suspected:

“Collective bargaining… is the only solution.”

That’s not just a hot take. That’s a full-on detonation of the NCAA’s traditional model.

White, alongside University of Tennessee Chancellor Donde Plowman, is sounding the alarm as the House v. NCAA settlement barrels toward final approval. And if their words prove prophetic, college sports could be on the verge of becoming something unrecognizable.

Let’s break down what’s going on—and why it could matter as much to Kentucky basketball fans as the Final Four itself.

What is collective bargaining, anyway?

Think labor union.

Collective bargaining is when a group of workers—usually through a union—negotiate with their employer as a group. The goal? Better pay, better benefits, and better treatment.

Instead of every athlete trying to secure their own NIL deal or fight for medical care alone, they’d have unified representation. It’s how teachers, factory workers, and professional athletes hammer out contracts.

So what White is really saying is this:

Let’s make the NCAA the employer. Let’s make athletes employees. Let’s negotiate a binding contract for everyone.

That’s a seismic shift.

Why now? House v. NCAA and the $2.8 Billion ticking time bomb

The call for collective bargaining comes just as the NCAA prepares to settle three landmark lawsuits—House, Hubbard, and Carter v. NCAA—in a deal worth $2.8 billion over 10 years. That deal would compensate past athletes denied NIL revenue and let schools share up to 22% of their annual revenue—around $20-22 million per school—with current players.

That sounds like a win, right?

Well, not exactly.

Critics say the deal:

• Imposes a salary cap that could be illegal.
• Fails to protect women’s sports or non-revenue athletes.
• Limits fair-market NIL deals via a new regulatory clearinghouse.
• Reduces scholarship opportunities, replacing them with “roster limits.”
• Was negotiated without direct athlete input.
• Favors big schools.

Even if U.S. District Judge Claudia Wilken signs off—which appears likely—the lawsuits won’t stop. Lawyers are lining up for more already before it even becomes official. The Department of Justice is watching. And no one knows where the new rules will land.

White’s message is clear: This patchwork system is broken. Let’s build a new one.

But collective bargaining isn’t simple folks.

Turning college sports into a unionized labor force brings its own massive complications, including:

• Who’s in the union? Just football and basketball players? Or every athlete, from gymnastics to golf?
• Are athletes now employees? If so, what about their scholarships, taxes, and transfer freedom?
• Title IX nightmares. Equal pay under employment laws could spark lawsuits from every corner.
• School-by-school chaos. Will Kentucky negotiate a different deal than Florida or Alabama?
• Who represents the athletes? NIL collectives? New unions? The NCAA’s not exactly trusted here.
• And what happens if an athlete goes on strike before the NCAA Tournament?

The potential for chaos is real—but so is the potential for progress.

What it means for Kentucky and the SEC

Kentucky has always operated like a blue-blood NBA franchise in March and a southern football school in October. But with revenue-sharing, NIL regulations, and employment classifications in play, schools like UK may have to rethink everything about how they build rosters, fund Olympic sports even more, and even recruit.

Mark Pope’s Wildcats may benefit from a clearer, more structured compensation model—especially as ticket sales and TV money continue to grow. But it could also limit flexibility and bring unexpected legal challenges to Rupp Arena’s doorstep.

So what say you, BBN?

Do you want college sports to work like the pros?
Do you trust the NCAA, or anyone, to enforce a fair system for everyone?
Or is collective bargaining—the kind Danny White is calling for—the only real path forward?

We’re entering a new era of college athletics. The question is no longer if change is coming—but how much, and how fast.

And for once, Kentucky might not be able to dribble past the politics after all. Interesting times indeed.

Oklahoma State’s men’s golf team posted a 5-over 293 during the first day of play at the NCAA Championship on Friday to stand in a tie for 14th place at the Omni La Costa Resort and Spa.

The second-ranked Cowboys finished the day in a five-way tie for their positioning at the par-72, 7,480-yard layout. OSU will begin its second round four shots outside of the top 10.

Sophomore Preston Stout led the way for OSU individually, posting a 1-under 71 to come in tied for 25th place. Starting on the back nine, Stout bogeyed two of his first five holes before carding birdies at the 15th and 18th to get back to even for the day. He would sandwich a bogey at the third with birdies at the second and fourth to stand at 1-under for the day with five to play.

Stout posted his fifth birdie of the day at the sixth before carding a bogey at the seventh on his way to a 1-under 35 on his second nine of the day.

Sophomore Ethan Fang also posted five birdies during his round before ultimately signing for a 1-over 73 to share 47th place.

Sophomore Eric Lee’s 74 tied him for 63rd place.

Freshman Filip Fahlberg-Johnsson and sophomore Gaven Lane each signed for 3-over 75s to finish the day tied for 79th place.

OSU will begin its second round tomorrow at 8:30 a.m. (CST) and will be grouped with Auburn and Ole Miss. Live scoring is available at scoreboard.clippd.com.
