In a season full of surprises, a pair of favorites punched their tickets to the NCAA Tournament last weekend, with UNC winning the ACC and Northwestern taking the Big Ten crown. Outside of the Power Five, High Point secured its fourth-straight NCAA Tournament automatic qualifier by winning the Big South.
But donât use a pen if youâre trying Bracketology at home. Thereâs still plenty up in the air. St. Joe s shook things up by downing nationally-ranked Richmond in the A-10 semis last weekend, opening the door for UMass to earn its bid to the tournament and leaving the Spiders to sweat it out, hoping for an at-large bid on Sunday.

Graduate student Kerri Clayton and Arizona State (8-5, 5-4 Pac-12) made its best attempt at a comeback on Friday, but it was too little, too late. USC (9-6, 6-3) prevailed 16-14 over the Sun Devils.
Headed into the final 11 minutes of the game, Arizona State found itself down by seven. Aided by a 7-2 run, the Sun Devils cut the deficit to two, but simply ran out of time. Clayton, one of the seniors honored at Arizona State’s final home game of the regular season, led the comeback attempt and finished with a team-high five goals.

No. 1 North Carolina and No. 2 Northwestern have played a cut above the rest of the field this year. The rest of Division I lacrosse is up for grabs, with multiple teams in the sport’s traditional powerhouse conferences, the ACC and Big Ten, jockeying for positioning in the standings.
Last week, Boston College topped a Notre Dame team that took UNC to the brink. The Eagles will close the season at Syracuse in what could be the matchup of the weekend. In the Big Ten, Rutgers upset Maryland, and Johns Hopkins topped Penn State.

Kerry Clayton scored five goals and added two assists, as Arizona State fell just short of its first-ever win over Stanford in a 22-21 overtime loss Friday.
Pac-12 women’s lacrosse is no longer simply the eminent domain of Stanford and USC. This year especially, the conference is wide open.
A couple of overtime thrillers reinforced that fact Friday, as No. 17 Stanford had to rally from a six-goal deficit to defeat Arizona State 22-21 and USC gave up a two-goal lead in the final minute of regulation before putting away last-place Cal 12-11.
Jamie Blake, 38, was caught after police searched his North Shields home for drugs in February 2017
A flashy money launderer who erected an illegal back garden pub once gained notoriety when his name was tattooed on a homeless man s face for a prank, it emerged tonight.
Jamie Blake, 38, was last week ordered to pay back £63,000 or face a year in prison for making money with his illicit bar.
Officers estimate the venue at his North Shields home cost £35,000 to build, and included flat screen TVs, a fully furnished bar and 13 unlicensed gambling and games machines.
Profits from the criminal enterprise funded Blake s lavish holidays abroad, a court ruled.
