EVANSTON, Ill. — In the days ahead, Northwestern fans and alumni, Chicagoans, and the greater sports world alike will learn whether or not Northwestern head football coach Pat Fitzgerald will face further punishment in the aftermath of an investigation into hazing allegations made against the university’s football program.Lawyer Michael Levine, who has represented victims of hazing across the United States, told WGN News that more actions may be in store."If the coaching staff and others in the athletic department, if they were doing their job, they would have known about this," Levine said. "What the university is doing in response to this, it's too little, too late, a shockingly small slap on the wrist in light of what the allegations are."

In the days leading into the draft, there was some buzz that the Twins might pick outside of the well-established top-five players if the remaining option was a high school player.Come draft night, that scenario didn’t play out.With the fifth pick in the MLB draft, the Twins selected prep outfielder Walker Jenkins out of South Brunswick High School in North Carolina, the last player available of what seemed to be a consensus top five.The 6-foot-3, 210-pound Jenkins, ranked the top prep player in the draft by MLB Pipeline, is a slugging center fielder with a lefty swing. Jenkins is said to have above average speed and a strong arm. Per MLB Pipeline, Jenkins is regarded as the best prep position player prospect to come out of the state of North Carolina since Josh Hamilton was selected with the first overall pick in 1999.Jenkins hit .417 as a senior with a .632 on-base percentage, earning North Carolina Gatorade Player of the Year honors for the second straight year and solidifying hi...Drag queen story time at Chaska children’s store met with outpouring of community support

A Chaska children’s boutique’s high-profile drag queen story time drew a supportive crowd Saturday morning in spite of protests.The event drew attention after the store’s owner posted a video on TikTok of an angry customer arguing that it promoted sexual entertainment for children. The video received more than 500,000 likes and thousands of comments supporting Little Roos.Darcie Baumann, who helped run the event, said in part due to these types of threats, the store was prepared when members of the right-wing extremist group the Proud Boys showed up on Saturday and shouted at attendees.Police and members of Minneapolis-based security team Sequeerity helped keep the peace, Baumann said.“We’re very lucky to be on private property and have the support of the property manager, and we were not going to engage,” Baumann said. “Any attention that we give them is just fueling that fire.”But what wasn’t expected was the 200-strong crowd that packed the store to ...Outdated infrastructure blamed for recent water main breaks

EATON — Walker Martin is etched into Colorado prep baseball history.Over a hundred people packed into Martin’s house in Eaton to watch the draft, and erupted into deafening cheers when Martin’s name was announced as the No. 52 overall pick in the second round by the Giants.The pick made Martin the 10th-highest pick out of a Colorado high school ever.It made up for the disappointment from earlier in the night, when the Giants passed on Martin at No. 16 overall and the air went out of the room. Heading into the draft, San Francisco was closely tied to Martin at that pick, but selected two-way player Bryce Eldridge out of Madison High School in Virginia instead.But Martin ended up with San Francisco anyways. Sources said the Giants offered the shortstop a $3 million signing bonus, well over the $1,620,800 slot value of the No. 52 pick. Martin will forgo his commitment to Arkansas to begin his professional career, which will likely begin with the Low-A San Jose Giants....Police searching for wanted sex offender out of Riverside and Kings counties
