Seven-time Super Bowl champion quarterback Tom Brady has acquired an ownership stake in the WNBA champion Las Vegas Aces.

The top four seeds in the tournament were given to South Carolina, Indiana, Stanford and Virginia Tech.

Who’s going to win the national championship? The betting favorites earlier this week (in order): Alabama, Houston, UConn, UCLA, Creighton, and Texas, according to FanDuel Sportsbook.

Twins manager Rocco Baldelli said the PitchCom device catcher Tony Wolters was using was loud enough for Tampa Bay Rays hitters to hear every pitch that was called.

The Gamecocks ran their streak to 36 consecutive weeks atop the Associated Press Top 25 women's basketball poll, matching Louisiana Tech for the second-longest run in the history of the poll, which dates to 1976.

Houston was No. 1 for the second straight week in the poll released Monday, receiving 49 first-place votes from a 62-person media panel.

Purdue returned to the top spot in the Associated Press men's college basketball poll on Monday, moving up two spots after Temple knocked off No. 1 Houston over the weekend.

The league continues to explore playing more games internationally in the future and even the possibility of placing a franchise abroad.

The men's basketball game between Iowa and Northwestern scheduled for Wednesday in Iowa City will not be played.

Expanding the tournaments is not imminent and might not even be likely in the near future even if the recommendation is adopted.
