College Volleyball

Michigan Tech’s Olivia Ghormley has been named the Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference North Division Volleyball Player of the Week. Ghormley set a new school career record for kills, as the Huskies swept their three games at the Midwest Crossover last weekend.

After sweeping 16th-ranked Lewis on Friday and 17th-ranked Hillsdale Saturday, the Huskies have risen to number-20 in this week’s AVCA Division II Coaches Poll.

College Soccer

The Finlandia University men’s soccer team plays at Ripon College tonight.

College Hockey

The Michigan Tech hockey team is ranked 18th in this week’s USCHO.com poll. The Huskies dropped two slots, after losses last weekend to Notre Dame and the USA Hockey National Team.

NHL

The Detroit Red Wings host the Columbus Blue Jackets tonight. Coverage begins at 7:15 on 99.3 The Lift.

NBA

The Detroit Pistons open the regular season tomorrow night at home against the Chicago Bulls. Coverage will begin at 6:35 on 99.3 The Lift.

MLB

Kyle Schwarber’s grand slam powered the Boston Red Sox past the Houston Astros 12-3 last night. Boston leads the American League Championship Series 2-1, with game four in Boston tonight.

The National League Championship series resumes this evening, as the Los Angeles Dodgers host the Atlanta Braves. Atlanta leads that set 2-0.

NFL

In the NFL last night…
• Derrick Henry’s third touchdown of the night, with three minutes remaining, gave the Tennessee Titans a 34-31 victory over the Buffalo Bills. A late Buffalo drive ended at the Tennessee one yard line, where the Bills went for the touchdown on fourth down, instead of kicking a field goal to force overtime. Josh Allen was stopped short on a quarterback sneak to seal the win for the Titans.

If you played The Wolf Pro Football Challenge, you must have selected at least 11 games correctly to be eligible to become our weekly winner.

Youth Hockey

The schedule is set for next week’s USA Hockey Officiating Seminars. The extra sessions have been added because of a severe shortage of officials at all levels.
