What happened last night? What events are coming up today? We have you covered with all of that and more.
Let’s dive right in.


College Sports News

Martayveus Carter, Grand Valley State’s all-time leading rusher, was chasing his NFL dream. Earlier this summer, the running back entered the Supplemental Draft and worked out for the Kansas City Chiefs two weeks ago. He was ultimately undrafted in the Supplemental Draft, but continued to pursue his dream. Unfortunately, Carter is now facing a long road to recovery ahead after being shot last weekend.


The Maryland football program has had a strong relationship with Under Armour, often having some of the most innovative and appealing uniforms in college football. The Terrapins have also been inspired by the Maryland state flag for a number of their looks, which will continue during the 2018 season as they celebrate their 10-year partnership with Under Armour.
