Column: it's been a busy last 3 months for yours truly. Now that @KyleSmedley03 is here, though, things will finally start to look different for me from a reader's perspective. Here's me clarifying what I actually do as a "Sports Content Coach" southbendtribune.com/story/s…

A rare first for me in the IHSAA world: covering the softball state finals. Assisting @10_Markos_ and @courierthescore as Barr-Reeve (1A) and Tecumseh (2A) go for state titles. Follow live updates of the Vikings vs. South Central Union Mills here: courierpress.com/story/sport…

With a 16-1 win over Fort Wayne Snider, @PennHSBaseball advances to the 8 p.m. ET IHSAA 4A North semi-state championship game against Lake Central at U.S. Steel Yard in Gary later tonight. The Kingsmen are one win away from advancing to their first state finals since 2023. ⚾️🏆

A genuinely shocking/stunning score right now
No video, but Yoti Limberopoulos just absolutely crushed a solo home run over the left field wall to make it a 10-0 @PennHSBaseball lead over Fort Wayne Snider in the top of the second inning. ⚾️🏆🧵 @SBTsports

Perfect game to get all the casual USA soccer fans (like me) to keep watching the World Cup. Kill a team, look fun doing it too. Great first 45!

And that's when they took 21 teams to state instead of 18 now. Impressive day for the South Bend area on the links
Per my statistician and coach @AustinRHough, the last time the @SBTsports coverage area advanced four teams to the IHSAA boys golf state finals before this season was 2008. @TrinitySBGolf, @PHS_Athletics1, @GolfElkhart and @SaintJoeSports are all headed to Carmel next week. ⛳️🏆

Can't remember a year where both the NBA Finals and Stanley Cup Final both rocked at the same time like this. Even the blowout games turn into dramatic finishes by the end. Amazing sports watching the last week-plus so far

Kyle put a lot of work into this, and it turned out great. Worth the read
