For the third time in the program's history - and the second time since 2008 - the University of Memphis men's golf team will take its shots in the postseason. The NCAA men's golf committee extended an at-large bid to the U of M on Monday, sending the Tigers to play in the Indiana Regional on May 19-21 at Wolf Run Golf Club in Zionsville, Ind. The U of M is one of 81 teams in the field, which is divided into six regions across the country, and one of 14 teams in its region. The five finalists from each region will advance to the NCAA Championships on May 31-June 5 at Stillwater, Okla.

The Montclair State men's soccer team was in need of help to keep its season going. Help arrived Monday when the Hawks received one of the 19 at- large bids to the 61-team NCAA Division III tournament. Montclair will host the first two rounds, playing Farmingham State in the opening round Saturday. The other game pits Dickinson against Vassar. The winners advance to Sunday's second-round matchup.
AMHERST, Mass. Bowdoin College advanced to Sunday's finals in the New England Small College Athletic Conference baseball tournament despite losing its opening game and playing 22 total innings, but torrential rains washed out the final day of play. Tufts University was awarded the tourney title by virtue of its 2-0 record. Bowdoin would have had to beat Tufts twice to win. Tufts 26-7-1 moves on to the NCAA Division III tournament and Bowdoin (24-14) will hope for an at-larger berth.
DAYTON, Ohio - USC arrived here Monday night still basking in the glow from its at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament. The Trojans are on a pretty short leash, however, with their first game Wednesday against Virginia Commonwealth at Dayton Arena.
HOUSTON - From the bench, University of Memphis coaches and players were still urging, still cheering, refusing to acknowledge that the roof had long since caved in on this game and, most likely, the Tigers' chances of an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament. Though the Tigers ' deficit against Houston was 15 points with less than 10 minutes remaining, there was still time, in theory, for a comeback. When Wesley Witherspoon missed a free throw and Elliot Williams got the rebound, nobody near him, it was exactly the kind of moment that might have sparked something on an otherwise listless Wednesday night.
JOHNSTOWN, Pa. - Seton Hill exploded for nine runs in the bottom of the first inning in cruising to its first West Virginia Conference tournament championship with a 14-3 victory over West Virginia State Sunday afternoon at Point Stadium. The Griffins (35-19) advance to this week's NCAA Division II Atlantic Regional, while State is anticipating an at-large bid to the six-team field. The Yellow Jackets (31-14) battled back from the losers' bracket Saturday, edging Pitt Johnstown 3-2 after falling to Seton Hill 7-5 earlier in the day.

We didn't realize we were mostly a female team until we were asked to fill out a survey from [the National Organization for Women], asking how many women were working on the campaign," [Stephanie J. Anderson] said with a laugh. "Well, we looked around the office and said that wasn't going to be a tough question. With a month to go before the Sept. 22 preliminary election, Jackson is stepping up his presence with events like last week's "Zumba with [Tito Jackson]" fitness showcase at Emmanuel College. The event, aimed at encouraging local residents to take charge of their own health, also offered Jackson the chance to show off the benefits of some lifestyle changes he's made since throwing his hat into the at-large ring - he says he's lost 20 pounds since getting on the campaign trail,...
How you doing, black man?" [Egobudike Ezedi] says, greeting a passerby. "My name is Ego Ezedi. I'm running for City Council. You have four votes. I'm asking for one of them. "All in all, what I've made clear is I'm going to do what's right by the community," he says. "When it stops being right for the community, that's when I'm leaving. That's always been my barometer." "It's about the people - it's not about the politicians," Ezedi says, repeating the statement for emphasis. "I understand the needs of youth and families in this city."
