Purdue Fort Wayne dropping baseball, softball amid budget cuts – NBC Chicago

Purdue Fort Wayne joined a line of schools dropping sports because of budget cuts and the looming era of revenue sharing with athletes, announcing Friday it would discontinue its baseball and softball programs immediately.
The university announced $6 million in budget cuts Thursday, and discontinuing the two sports will save about $1 million.
The Mastadons are members of the Horizon League and Midwestern Intercollegiate Volleyball Association and will sponsor 14 Division I sports.
“This is one of the saddest days in my 25 years as a Mastodon,” athletic director Kelley Hartley Hutton said. “We know this news will upset our student-athletes, alumni and fans. It was not made lightly, and we are committed to supporting those affected through this transition.”
Harley Hutton said budget challenges across the university, in combination with changes in the NCAA model, led to a re-evaluation of the athletic program.
Stephen F. Austin announced Thursday it would drop bowling, men’s and women’s golf and beach volleyball. Eastern Illinois announced on May 12 it would discontinue men’s and women’s tennis.

KUCHING: Sarawak’s aquatic hopes are riding high as 18 athletes from the Power Aquatics Swimming Club (PASC) dive into national competition at the Malaysian Schools Sports Council (MSSM) Aquatic Championship 2025.
The event is taking place at the MBJB Aquatic Centre, Larkin Arena, Johor Bahru, from May 24 to 28.
The group includes 11 swimmers and seven water polo players from PASC, making up a significant portion of Sarawak’s aquatic contingent at this national-level school championship.
The water polo lineup is composed entirely of PASC athletes: Bryan Lee Ming Yik, Jeremiah Luk Kah, Jon Marcus Ling Kwong Cheng, Ong Zong Lian, Presley Phang Yi Qi, Samuel Chong Yue Yang, and Tay Kee Ren.
In the swimming events, Sarawak will be represented by PASC’s Arshabel Chong Jiin Sii, Bernard Tan Yi Song, Caitlyn Yeo Xuan, Chereen Ngo Yirui, Elisha Lee Ern, Eva Chai Ching Yi, Hansel Narang Tan Zhihan, Jonas Chai He Xuan, Larissa Yii Ya Xuan, Rhian Tang Hui Xin, and Sheamus Chew Heng Yi.
PASC advisor and water polo team coach Voon Yong Hui told the Sarawak Tribune yesterday that while there are no fixed expectations this year due to the team’s composition, the focus is on growth and experience.
“This year, most of our swimmers are in different age groups, and more than half of the water polo team are new players.
“I hope they can deliver strong performances or at least gain valuable experience for future competitions,” he said.
The MSSM Aquatic Championship serves as an important platform for young athletes to showcase their talents and test themselves against the best from across Malaysia.
With rising young talents stepping up to the national stage, PASC continues to be a vital force in Sarawak’s aquatic development.

Right now, the Pittsburgh Steelers roster is in a state of flux. The last two offseasons have felt like half-hearted attempts to rebuild various positional units, but there still remain more questions than answers. One of the best concerns is the lack of truly elite young talent on the roster. Proof of this is the list recently published by Pro Football Reference, ranking the 25 best players under 25 in the NFL.
The Steelers failed to land a single player on the list, which is an indicator of a roster when the best players are aging and the young players on the team aren’t performing up to their potential.

As we look over the Steleers current roster, the only player we could make a case to be included is center Zach Frazier. Frazier was the Steelers second-round pick in 2024 and thanks to an injury to starting center Nate Herbig, found himself in the starting lineup quickly.
Frazier started 15 games for the Steelers in 2024 and finished as the second-highest rated rookie offensive lineman in the entire NFL. The Steelers have a long history of elite NFL centers and Frazier appears to be next in line.
Aside from Frazier, things get pretty dicey for the Steelers and young talent. cornerback Joey Porter Jr. and defensive tackle Keeanu Benton both took a step back in year two and edge defender Nick Herbig has shown very little. The Steelers 2025 rookie class, including defensive tackle Derrick Harmon and running back Kaleb Johnson looks great but it’s far too soon to consider them for a list like this.

QUINCY (WGEM) – John Wood keeps adding more talent to their volleyball program and they hit the jackpot with a recent Blazer signee.
Quincy High School’s Ayanna Douglas will be sporting green and yellow this fall. In her senior year, Douglas had 181 kills, 172 digs, and 34 aces.
Douglas will be joining a big freshmen class looking to make a difference under their new head coach, Nick Pudlowski.
“I want to accomplish a team that is strong,” said Douglas. “I want to impact the team in a positive manner, I want to be there for my teammates and I want to be the person that can always be leaned on. Quincy prepared me because I will be playing with girls that I played with here, so I will be able to further my connection with them and play at a higher level.”
It was a hard process for Douglas to choose what college to play for, but she said family guided her to make this decision.
“It’s pretty relieving,” said Douglas. “I had a whole season where I was stressed about where to go. But then I was shown by my people where to go, they showed me that family is where I belong.”
