REGIONAL SPORTS ROUNDUP
August 31, 2026

COLLEGE

RACERS REMAIN WINLESS
Murray State soccer produced its best offensive performance of the season yesterday but fell 1-0 to Georgia Southern at Cutchin Field. The Racers recorded a season-high 14 shots, including four on goal, but could not find the equalizer after the Eagles scored in the 26th minute. Breece Bass and Natalie Miller each had four shots while Goalkeeper Griselda Revolorio made two saves to keep Murray State within striking distance. The Racers dropped to 0-4-1 and will look for their first win Thursday at Marshall.

BOR ATHLETIC ACTIONS
At Friday's meeting, the Murray State University Board of Regents approved Derek Doolittle as Murray State Athletics’ first assistant vice president, deputy athletics director, and chief operating officer. He will oversee day-to-day operations and will earn $175,000 annually under a contract running through August 2028. The board also extended contracts for softball coach Kara Amundson through 2030 and track and field/cross country coach Adam Kiesler through 2029.

Additionally, Regents approved Owens Family Field as the new name for MSU’s softball venue in recognition of the Owens family’s contributions to the university and student-athletes.

MINCHEY MONEY
It looks like new University of Kentucky quarterback Kenny Minchey may be earning big after becoming a Wildcat. On3 reports the Notre Dame transfer is among a pool of college football players pulling in at least two-million dollars through NIL contracts. Minchey signed with Kentucky under new head coach Will Stein after initially committing to Nebraska upon his exit from Notre Dame. The Wildcats open the season this Saturday with a home game against Youngstown State.

MTSU TO HONOR DOLLY
Middle Tennessee State's football team will honor Dolly Parton during its home opener this weekend. The Blue Raiders will wear a commemorative Dolly patch when they face Murray State September 5th at Floyd Stadium. Athletic Director Chris Massaro says the team wanted to recognize one of Tennessee's greatest icons following her death at age 80. The game date also pays tribute to Parton, with the September 5th kickoff matching the title of her hit song and film, "9 to 5." Kickoff is set for 6 p.m.

PROS

CARDINALS REPORT
The Pirates claimed the rubber game of their three-game series with the Cardinals following a 5-4 yesterday afternoon in St. Louis. Esmerlyn Valdez slugged a two-run homer while Braxton Ashcraft gave up two runs on six hits over five innings to for the Pirates fourth win in six games. Ivan Herrera doubled and drove in a pair of runs for the Cardinals which rallied from a 4-0 hole to make it close. Matthew Liberatore surrendered three earned runs over five-plus innings to slip to 5-13. St. Louis has a travel today before beginning a three-game series tomorrow night with the Dodgers in Los Angeles.

TITANS REPORT
The Titans waived former starting QB Will Levis yesterday. In other news, receiver Wan'Dale Robinson isn't seriously injured. The 25-year-old did not suffer a concussion during a joint practice with the Bears last week. The Titans lost to Chicago 24-15 at Nissan Stadium on Saturday to end the NFL preseason. They will open the season at noon Sunday when they host the Jets in Nashville.

EMU DOWNS RACERS
Murray State volleyball was swept 3-0 (23-25, 25-21, 25-21) by Eastern Michigan on Saturday in its final match of the USI Invitational in Evansville. The Racers led 18-17 in the first set behind four kills from Lily Burnett before Eastern Michigan closed on an 8-of-12 run. Maezi Snyder had four kills in the second set as Murray State mounted a late rally but still fell. Paige Brock’s ace helped the Racers jump ahead 4-0 in the third; she finished with three aces. Eastern Michigan answered with six straight points and closed it out.

Murray State next plays on Friday at the NIU Invitational in DeKalb vs host Northern Illinois, before facing Lindenwood and Portland State on Saturday.

MSU HOSTS GEORGIA SOUTHERN
Murray State soccer will look to earn its first win of the season today when the Racers host Georgia Southern at Cutchin Field at 1 pm this afternoon. Murray State enters at 0-3-1 after a 2-2 draw with UT Martin on Thursday. Breece Bass leads the Racers with one goal and remains a key offensive threat.

Georgia Southern arrives unbeaten through five matches at 3-0-2, including wins over North Florida and FGCU. The Eagles have allowed just three goals this season and have outshot opponents 78-64. Sunday’s match will be the first meeting between Murray State and Georgia Southern and will stream on ESPN+.

GROUND BROKEN ON TFP
Murray State has broken ground on Phase 3 of the Johnny Reagan Field at the Taylor Family Park renovation, adding premium seating and fan amenities for Racer Baseball. The project includes two new buildings with premium suites, a club space, new concessions, and on-site restrooms. New entrances with signature archways and enhanced Racer branding will also update the arrival experience. The upgrades come after the program set attendance records last year and are meant to improve the game-day experience for players, fans, donors, and corporate partners.

PROS

CARDINALS REPORT
Pittsburgh defeated St. Louis 6-2 yesterday to force a rubber game at 1:15 today in the three-game series. Brandon Lowe led off the scoring with a solo homer in the first before Joshua Báez tied it with a solo shot in the third. The Pirates then pulled ahead on Jacob Gonzalez’s RBI single in the fourth and Rafael Flores three-run homer in the fifth. St. Louis got one back in the sixth on a pair of Pittsburgh errors and then Nick Gonzales added an RBI double in the ninth.

Carmen Mlodzinski earned the win in relief (3.1 IP, 1 H, 0 ER) and Rookie Brycen Mautz took the loss in his MLB debut after allowing four runs in three innings despite eight strikeouts. The Pirates collected 11 hits to the Cardinals’ three. Today the Pirates send RHP Braxton Ashcraft (13-5, 3.59 ERA) against Cardinals LHP Matthew Liberatore (5-12, 5.44 ERA). Airtime is set for 12:30 this afternoon on WNBS.

TITANS REPORT
The Chicago Bears closed the preseason with a 24-15 victory over the Tennessee Titans last night at Nissan Stadium. Chicago jumped out quickly on a 97-yard touchdown pass from Tyson Bagent to rookie Zavion Thomas on the opening play and never trailed. Bagent was nearly perfect, completing 16 of 17 passes for 208 yards and two touchdowns.

Thomas finished with five catches for 140 yards and a touchdown, while the Bears' defense held Tennessee scoreless in the third quarter. Will Levis started for the Titans and completed 14 of 22 passes for 143 yards, while D'Ernest Johnson scored Tennessee's lone touchdown late. The Titans and Bears each finished the preseason 2-1.

NASCAR RECAP
Ryan Preece delivered a dramatic upset last night at Daytona International Speedway, winning the Coke Zero Sugar 400 in overtime for his first career NASCAR Cup Series victory. Preece stretched his fuel mileage through the closing laps and took the lead just before a late caution ended the race, finishing ahead of Daniel Suárez, Tyler Reddick, Michael McDowell and Ricky Stenhouse.

The victory moved Preece past Shane van Gisbergen for the 16th and final spot in the Chase. Van Gisbergen, who entered the night with a 31-point advantage, finished 28th after making a late pit stop and was eliminated from postseason contention. The race ran six laps beyond its scheduled 160-lap distance and featured a chaotic final-lap crash. The Chase begins next Sunday at Darlington Raceway

Gage Chapman and Kenyon Cunningham enjoyed two-touchdown games for the Tigers while Bruce Willis tossed a pair of touchdown passes. Jackson Wyatt scored twice to lead the Lakers. The victory was the tenth in a row for the Tigers in the series. Next Friday, Murray visits Graves County while Calloway County hosts Fulton County for homecoming.

COLLEGE

MSU FALLS TWICE IN EVANSVILLE
Murray State volleyball opened the season 0-2 yesterday at the USI Invitational in Evansville, falling to host Southern Indiana 3-1 before dropping a 3-0 decision to Northern Illinois. Anne Makowski led the Racers with 30 combined kills, including 18 against Southern Indiana and 12 versus NIU.

Paige Brock contributed 54 assists across the two matches, while Lily Burnett added a strong offensive showing against Northern Illinois with eight kills on a .412 hitting percentage. Murray State will close the tournament today at 11 am against Eastern Michigan.

PROS

CARDINALS REPORT
The St. Louis Cardinals opened their weekend home series with a 4-1 win over Pittsburgh last night, snapping a five-game losing streak against the Pirates. Jimmy Crooks provided the big blow with a two-run homer in the third inning, while Jordan Walker had three hits and scored twice.

Rookie left-hander Quinn Mathews earned his first major-league victory, allowing one run on five hits with seven strikeouts over 5⅔ innings. The Cardinals also took advantage of three Pittsburgh errors to secure the victory. Tonight at 6:15, the Cardinals will RHP Kyle Leahy vs. Pittsburgh RHP Carmen Mlodzinski. Pregame show airtime is set for 5:20 on WNBS.

TITANS REPORT
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson has avoided a head injury. NFL Network reports the 25-year-old apparently did not suffer a concussion this week during a joint practice with the Chicago Bears. Robinson is in his first year with Tennessee after four seasons with the New York Giants. He caught 92 passes for over one-thousand yards and four touchdowns in 2025.

AREA NFL REPORT
Despite the Bears organization stating that their only focus is to build a stadium in Hammond, Indiana, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell is singing another tune. He told reporters in Atlanta that he wants to make sure that Arlington Heights and Illinois have an opportunity, and Indiana as well, to put their best foot forward. The Bears are studying two possible stadium locations in Hammond for a domed venue but have not officially ruled out building in Illinois. The organization owns 326 acres in Arlington Heights, where they have tried to push for property-tax breaks, but have not been successful.

NASCAR PREVIEW
The NASCAR Cup Series regular season comes to an end today. The drivers square off in the Coke Zero 400 at Daytona International Speedway. Ryan Blaney secured a postseason spot following his win at New Hampshire Motor Speedway last weekend. There are only three positions left to claim in The Chase, with Bubba Wallace, Austin Cindric and Shane van Gisbergen currently occupying them.

The Racers fell behind 2-0 early in the second half before Reagan Tate scored in the 52nd minute to spark the comeback. Breece Bass then found the equalizer in the 87th minute with her first goal of the season. Murray State goalkeeper Griselda Revolorio made six saves, matching her season high.

HUTCHINSON INKS WITH CINCY
A UofL defensive back is leaving the football team after being granted another year of eligibility. Safety D'Angelo Hutchinson has entered the transfer portal and signed with Cincinnati. Hutchinson was part of a lawsuit against the NCAA that ultimately allowed him and some other student-athletes to have a fifth year to compete at the college level. Hutchinson said he was planning to stay in Louisville just last week.

The Cardinals begin a three-game home series with the Pirates tonight with time-shifted coverage set for 11:15 on WNBS due to Murray High football.

TITANS REPORT
Tennessee Titans wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson is being evaluated for a head injury. Head coach Robert Saleh says Robinson may have suffered a concussion today as the result of what he called a "cheap" hit by Xavier Woods during Tennessee's joint practice with the Chicago Bears ahead of Saturday's preseason finale. If Robinson enters concussion protocol, he'll still have a good chance of being ready to play in Week One.

The Titans are honoring Chris Johnson with a special ticket deal and a fundraiser for ALS research. Tickets for the September 13th season opener against the New York Jets will cost 28-dollars, with five dollars from each ticket going to the Vanderbilt ALS Research Center.

REGIONAL SPORTS ROUNDUP
August 27, 2026

COLLEGE

RACERS READY FOR OPENER
Murray State opens its 102nd football season tonight against former Ohio Valley Conference rival Eastern Illinois in a Week 0 matchup at Stewart Stadium. The Racers enter the season with 67 newcomers, but return several key defensive players, including their top three tacklers from 2025. The offense, meanwhile, has significant turnover, with multiple quarterbacks competing for the starting job and several newcomers expected to contribute at running back and receiver.

Eastern Illinois went 3-9 last season and also has a large number of newcomers. The teams last met in 2022, when Eastern Illinois won 35-21. Coverage begins tonight at 5:30 with Dave Winder and Marcus Perry on Froggy 103.7 and the Varsity App.

OPENING NIGHT FOR MVFC
The Missouri Valley Football Conference begins its 42nd season of competition tonight with the Racers playing one of four non-league games. Eight of the league's nine teams are in action this week. Last year the MVFC was 30-11 against non-conference FCS programs, which included an 18-2 mark at home. The conference holds an FCS-best 14 national championships — more than any other conference in the sport's history.

RACER SOCCER HOSTS UTM
Murray State soccer returns home today when the Racers host former OVC rival UT Martin at 1 pm at Cutchin Field. Murray State is looking for its first victory of 2026 and the first of the Ben Madsen era after the 0-3 Racers opened against one of the toughest stretches in program history with losses at Ole Miss, Missouri, and Notre Dame. The 1-0-3 Skyhawks beat Chicago State earlier this month and have posted draws against Chattanooga, Middle Tennessee, and Illinois State.

PROS

CARDINALS REPORT
The Cardinals are on a five-game losing streak. The team came up short against the Orioles in an 8-7 loss last night at Busch Stadium. Nolan Gorman hit a solo home run in the second inning for St. Louis, which rallied with six runs in the fifth inning to tie the game before Christian Encarnacion-Strand hit a game-winning RBI double in the ninth. He went four for five with a pair of runs batted in for Baltimore, which has won four of its last five games.

Riley O'Brien was tagged with the loss after allowing one run on two hits in relief. The Cardinals will look to avoid a series sweep against the Orioles in tonight's 6:45 game with a 5:50 pregame show airtime on WNBS.

TITANS REPORT
The Tennessee Titans are adding a little more Nashville flair to their uniforms. The team unveiled its new "Music City" Rivalries look Tuesday. It features a Titans Blue helmet, navy jerseys and pants, a neon-inspired number font and a six-string guitar stripe. The Titans will debut the uniform November 15th at home against the Jacksonville Jaguars, and it will remain in the rotation for three seasons.

AREA NFL REPORT
Week Three of the NFL preseason is here. Four games are on the slate tonight to kick off the last matchups of exhibition play. Tomorrow, the Falcons visit the Dolphins, and the Chiefs host the Seahawks while the Titans host the Bears on Saturday.

The NFL is eliminating the Pro Bowl game while keeping the annual honor for the league's top players. The Athletic reports league executives presented the change to team owners Wednesday after years of experimenting with tackle, flag football, and skills competitions. Eighty-eight players will continue to be selected through voting by fans, players, and coaches, but alternates will no longer be recognized.
