DAYTONA BEACH, FLA. –  Jose Fernandez of B-CU Baseball has been named Wildcats of the Week for the week of April 28 – May 4, 2025. 

ose Fernandez played a massive part of a three-game series sweep of No. 1 seed Bethune-Cookman over No. 2 seed Alabama State this weekend. In three games, he collected four hits, two runs scored, four RBI, a double, a walk, and his first homer of the season. After coming in as a pinch hitter in game one, Fernandez’s RBI single in the bottom of the ninth walked off the Hornets to open the series with a win and erase an Alabama State lead of as much as five. 

Each week, The Bethune-Cookman Office of Athletic Communications recognizes one male and one female student-athlete through the Wildcats of the Week award.

This award recognizes student-athletes who have excelled in competition, in the classroom, and in the community over the past week, exemplifying the Championship Culture of Wildcat Athletics.

Fairfax, Va. – George Mason University will be well represented at the NCAA First Round Qualifiers as five standout student-athletes – Geni Roberts, Kailynn Tyson, Wesley Bond, Davian Burke, and Joziah Johnson – have earned their places among the nation’s best in their respective events. 

Kailynn Tyson will compete in both the long jump and triple jump after an outstanding outdoor season. She posted a mark of 6.16 meters in the long jump, ranking 38th in the East region. Her triple jump performance at the Atlantic 10 Outdoor Championships earned her a distance of 12.99 meters, the 15th best mark in the region.

Freshman Davian Burke made an immediate impact this season, qualifying for the 110m hurdles with a time of 13.87. His debut season continues with a trip to the NCAA First Round, demonstrating his potential on a national stage.

Joziah Johnson, the A-10 gold medalist in the 400m hurdles, enters the NCAA First Round ranked 38th in the East region. He secured his spot with a time of 51.10, capping off a strong outdoor campaign.

Returning to NCAA postseason competition is Geni Roberts, who qualified in the triple jump. Roberts landed a mark of 15.75 meters, the 16th best in the region, adding to his already impressive career as a Patriot.

Wesley Bond rounds out the Mason qualifiers with a strong showing in the 3000m steeplechase. Bond clocked a time of 8:43.50 at the A-10 Outdoor Championships, earning the 23rd best time in the East and a well-deserved place in the First Round.

05/22/2025 – Article has been updated to reflect changes to the accompanying image

Scheduled from May 22 – June 1, the 2025 Memorial Cup will be streamed live worldwide (excluding Canada), as Victory+ expands its global footprint and redefines access to live hockey content.

The premium, free, sports streaming service, Victory+, owned by A Parent Media Co. Inc. (APMC), will broadcast the 2025 Memorial Cup from Rimouski, Québec, globally (excluding Canada) on the digital platform. The Memorial Cup pits the playoff champion from the Western Hockey League (WHL), Ontario Hockey League (OHL), and Quebec Maritimes Junior Hockey League (QMJHL), along with the host club, in a four-team round-robin tournament to determine the champion of the CHL.

This year’s event will feature the Medicine Hat Tigers (WHL), Rimouski Océanic (QMJHL), Moncton Wildcats (QMJHL), and the London Knights (OHL), and it will mark a key moment in expanding the visibility of junior hockey through a modern, scalable distribution model.

Streaming the 2025 Memorial Cup continues the Victory+ commitment to opening up new international pathways for live sports content. By bringing the CHL to a global stage, the platform is accelerating fan discovery of the league’s rising stars while building new audiences for the sport at large.

“Making the Memorial Cup available for free to global audiences is at the heart of our mission,” said Neil Gruninger, President & CEO of APMC. “Victory+ was built to remove barriers, giving both lifelong fans and those discovering the sport for the first time easy access to live hockey. We believe the future of sports lies in accessibility, and this championship stream is another example of how we’re delivering on that promise.”

The broadcast follows a successful wave of WHL, OHL, and QMJHL playoff games on the platform, which drew strong engagement and underscored the demand for frictionless access to premium junior hockey. With more than 700 WHL games set for the upcoming season, Victory+ is scaling its coverage to meet growing demand while empowering leagues and rights holders with modern monetization tools and platform reach.

This event also serves as a capstone to a record-setting spring for the service. From the highly successful Texas Wins on Victory Day initiative to the record-breaking digital viewership during Round One of the NHL Playoffs featuring the Dallas Stars, Victory+ continues to establish itself as a leader in the future of live sports streaming.

Texas volleyball will play in the inaugural Shiners Children’s Showdown at the Net in Fort Worth at Dickies Arena on Sept. 10 against Louisville as part of the ACC/SEC nonconference series, school officials announced Thursday. The match will be broadcast on ESPN at 8 p.m.

The Showdown at the Net will also include Pittsburgh and Kentucky.

“This is an exciting time for our sport, and this matchup will be one the fans don’t want to miss,” Texas coach Jerritt Elliott said in a statement. “This is the fastest-growing sport, and with these high-level matchups we continue to see across the NCAA, it will only get bigger.”

The nonconference matchup between two teams expected to be highly ranked in the preseason polls will be just the sixth meeting in a series that Texas leads 4-1. The last time the two teams met was in the 2022 NCAA Championship match, where Texas went on to win its first of two back-to-back titles. The Longhorns swept the Cardinals, 3-0, to earn their fourth national title and first since 2012.

The match against Louisville adds to an intriguing nonconference schedule for Texas, which went 20-7 and reached a regional semifinal, where it fell to Creighton. Texas will host Stanford Sept. 7 in its first-ever match in Moody Center.

The Longhorns will also help make history this fall as part of a revamped SEC schedule. For the first time in conference history, the SEC will have programs from all 16 schools play each other once, either home or away, for a 15-match conference schedule. 

The Longhorns’ full 2025 schedule will be announced this summer.
