LAKE FOREST, Ill. It’s not an overstatement to call quarterback Justin Fields’ arrival in Chicago the city’s most celebrated sports moment since the Cubs won the World Series in 2016.
The Bears almost universally panned for their spotty Day 1 draft record over the past decade administered a shot of adrenaline to the fan base when they pulled off a draft-night blockbuster trade with the New York Giants in order to move up nine spots and select Fields 11th overall.
Fields is no Mitchell Trubisky, who sat on the bench at North Carolina for years until a very good junior season (the 8-5 Tar Heels lost the Sun Bowl to Stanford in Trubisky’s final collegiate game) convinced the Bears to take him with the second pick in 2017.

Sophomore attacker Hannah Leubecker took to the eight-meter for No. 2 seed Maryland women’s lacrosse’s eighth such attempt with just five seconds remaining in the first half of play against No. 7 seed Michigan.
Her shot from the left side lacked velocity, but it trickled into the top right corner for Maryland’s 12th goal of the half. It marked a fitting finish to a dominant first half from the Terps, one in which they matched their goals per game average.
