2025 Big Ten Men's Basketball Tournament: How to watch, bracket and more

The Big Dance is almost here.

But first, the teams in each top conference will battle it out for the postseason crown — and an automatic bid into the NCAA Tournament.

In the Big Ten, Michigan State earned top seed for the first time since 2019, finishing with 17 conference wins — the most in program history — en route to its 17th Big Ten regular season title. The last time the Spartans took No. 1, they won the conference title.
But the Big Ten's winningest team won't have it easy in this year'...

Orders, memorandums and proclamations: What's the difference, and what to know

Donald Trump's presidency began just as he promised.

Just hours after being sworn into office for the second time, the 47th commander in chief issued a flurry of executive orders on topics ranging from a crackdown on immigration to the United States' withdrawal from the World Health Organization and a temporary revival of TikTok.

Trump also used his executive power to rescind 78 executive orders signed by Joe Biden over the last four years.
But not all of his first-day actions held the same po...

At the age of 16, a series of catastrophic health issues left Fiona Howard, then a highly-accomplished junior equestrian athlete, unsure if she would ever be able to get back in the saddle.

The team’s combined final score of 235.567 is the highest ever rec...

Too much sitting may directly affect future heart health, study finds

Sitting too much may be linked to cardiovascular issues later in life regardless of how much you exercise, according to a study released Friday.

"There's a lot of research supporting the importance of physical activity," said Shaan Khurshid, a cardiac electrophysiologist at Massachusetts General Hospital and a co-senior author on the study. "In contrast, there's relatively little know about sedentary behavior, and because of that, the guidelines are not as specific about what we should be doing...

The Dutch dynasty in field hockey continues.
With wins in both the men's and women's tournaments, the Netherlands completed the first-ever golden sweep in the sport's Olympic history, but that's just one of the many groundbreaking storylines the Paris Olympics offered. From the U.S. women earning a tournament bid for the first time since 2016 to the Spanish men's team upsetting top-ranked Belgium in the quarterfinals, the series was wrought with drama.
Without a doubt, Paris provided the world o...

Since the start of the season, there’s been no let up for Joseph Case’s championship-driven softball team - The Boston Globe

“When you know your coach believes in you, and when you know your coach has confidence in you, it’s definitely an important thing.”

“From the first practice, [coach Shannon Silva ] made it very, very clear she is expecting nothing less than she expected last year, this team is still just as good,” said Skye Dupre , a junior captain.

The message was clear from Day 1 of the preseason for the Joseph Case softball team: this is not a rebuild.

The Cardinals, who cruised to a 24-1 record and the Di

NFL Draft: How top-3 QB picks have fared in their rookie seasons

The New England Patriots are, in a word, unstable at the quarterback position.

Mac Jones’ predictable departure and Bailey Zappe’s unreliable play left the Patriots without a long-term answer at QB. Signing free agent Jacoby Brissett, known for his dependable backup status, didn’t settle the matter.

Though Jerod Mayo announced Monday that the Patriots are open to trading their third overall pick — weighing the benefits of securing additional draft picks further down the line in an attempt to s
