In the past 20 years, the UEFA Champions League has become one of the world’s biggest and best soccer tournaments. The league is comprised of Europe’s best teams, who all compete to win the Champions League Final. Although every team’s goal is to win the tournament, the Champions League is about more than just winning. The league helps unite fans across the continent since, without it, many of Europe’s top teams would never have a chance to play each other. By Pacey Ely ‘22
Bill Belichick is widely regarded as one of the greatest coaches in NFL history with six Super Bowl wins as the head coach of the New England Patriots. On Jan. 10, he was offered the Presidential Medal of Freedom by former President Donald Trump. This is the highest civilian award in our country, and is in line with the Congressional Gold Medal. This is a seemingly odd choice, considering the Medal of Freedom is typically awarded to people with a different set of credentials, such as Rosa Parks or Mother Tereasa. While Belichick is regarded as a national treasure by some, it was widely considered a strange choice. That same day, Belichick turned down the medal, citing reasons surrounding the Capitol riot and how it was handled by former President Trump. By Daniel Schiffman ‘23

Coming into this season, the Yankees are ranked as a top-five team with one of the best hitting lineups in all of Major League Baseball. Although their exceptional hitting contributed to many wins, their inconsistent pitching and injuries held the Yankees back from advancing further into the playoffs. |
