I am Phil Newell, look at Southwestern Wisconsin sports, the Richland Center,

Ithaca cross country teams preparing for a run at state tournament.

Coming up this Saturday in Wisconsin Rapids, you're as head coach Eric Midden.

It can be fun this week where normally it's just about a guy or two or three.

If you're lucky and you know, have a whole team there that's got something to

take and beat for, something to, you know, go and work for.

They're already talking about their goals for this next week and hoping that they can put

together a good race and the state champion should meet.

Gary Bushley,

Brandon DeBikeller,

along with Andre Jensen,

Will Barossa,

and Travis Bushley.

Freddie Freeman,

Homer leading off the bottom

of the 18th inning.

Show Hayotani went deep twice

during another record

setting performance,

and the Dodgers outlast

of the Blue Jays,

6-5 in a World Series Classic.

The defending champion Dodgers

took a two-to-one lead

in the best of seven matchup

and still have a chance

to win the title at home.

The game lasted six hours,

39 minutes,

and matched the longest

by innings in post-season history.

And show Hayotani

with a total of four

extra-based hits

in game three,

and he drew five consecutive walks.

He's the first major

leager in 83 years

to reach base nine times

in any games,

let alone the post-season.

Patrick Mahomes threw

for 299 yards

and free touchdowns,

and the Kansas City Chiefs

beat the commanders,

28-7.

The game was tied at halftime,

but Mahomes was nearly perfect

after the break.

Kareem Hunt found the

unzoned twice for Kansas City.

One of Mahomes' touchdown passes

was to Travis Kelsey

giving him 83 scores

that ties priest homes

for the Chiefs overall career record.

The Packers have lost a corner

back taken in the seventh round

of the 2025 NFL draft.

Micah Robinson was on the practice squad

when he was signed by the Titans,

tight-end Ben Sims,

who was released last weekend

to make roster room for Christian Watson

has been signed by the Vikings.

He played all 34 games

for Green Bay over the last two seasons,

six of them with starts.

As far as the game is concerned,

on Sunday night,

it looked like Tucker Kraft was the one

who was targeted the most times,

and yesterday Coach Matlow Flora

was asked if the other receivers

feel slighted.

I know it can be frustrating for these guys

that it should look how far Tuxcom.

I mean, would it take him like eight games

before he got his first reception

his rookie year?

So you just never know within the process.

That's why you just got to keep working

and try to do your job.

And why don't they run more Jets sweeps?

That subject was brought up yesterday?

That was not a good team to run those types of plays

against because they were so wide with their edges

and they do such a good job

getting out of the stack in the screen game.

So when you watch them on tape,

they weren't as effective.

What was more effective was actually

dropping back and throwing the football

kind of like what Cincinnati did.

Matlow Flora, the packers

and comedy getting ready for their next game

coming up on Sunday.

The box could be missing three players

when they host the next tonight.

Point guard Kevin Porter,

Junior will miss his third straight contest

with a sprained ankle guard Cole Anthony

and forward Kyle Kusma are listed as questionable.

And the first game for new Wisconsin women's basketball coach

Robin Pinkton was a 140 romp

in an exhibition game Monday against Division 3

UW River Falls.

Guard Destiny Howel led the scoring

with a total of 22 points.

The Badgers officially opened the regular season Wednesday

November 5th and home against Oakland.

I am Phil Ne with sports.
