The Ignite defeated the Orlando Valkyries 25-20, 25-15, 25-18 in three sets April 23, improving their record to 20-5 with three matches left in the regular season.  With one more win or Dallas Pulse loss, the Ignite will secure that No. 1 seed in the upcoming championship, where the top four teams will compete for a million-dollar prize.  The Ignite logged a 48.5 kill percentage and limited the Valkyries to a 31.7% kill rate in the matchup, never trailing by more than two points in any set.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;That was a very clean game from us,&#8221; Ignite head coach Lauren Bertolacci said. &#8220;We served really well. They have two great setters, and I don\u2019t think they were able to use their in-system offense very much, which gave us a lot of chances on defense and in transition. I thought (Ignite setter) Mia (Tuaniga) did a great job setting our middles in trans, and we were really able to put the pressure on the whole game.&#8221;   Outside hitter Leketor Member-Meneh tallied 12 points and kills, along with 13 digs, while outside hitter Azhani Tealer added 11 points on nine kills and a pair of blocks.  Two recent additions, middle blockers Jaelyn Keene and Emma Clothier, also impressed in the match. Keene tallied nine kills in 15 attempts, along with a service ace, and Clothier was 7-for-14 hitting without an error, also notching a block and ace.  The Ignite victory completed a 4-0 season sweep for the Valkyries and eliminated Orlando (10-15) from postseason contention.\u00a0 The Ignite next travel to Atlanta for their final road match, playing Sunday, April 26 at 3 p.m. (CBS Sports Network).

The dramatic finish was worth the wait as the extra-inning victory sealed TU\u2019s fourth straight Crossroads League Regular Season Championship, with the Trojans dogpiling late into the night at MU Ballpark.   The Trojans persevered through a rough start in Indianapolis after falling 17-8 in the opening contest, which snapped the win streak at 24 \u2013 finishing tied for the longest in program history with the 2011 squad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TU improved to 43-4 (31-3 CL) on the season and will have a chance to break its record for most league wins (32) set last year with a pair of victories on Saturday. In the nightcap victory, TU jumped out to a 3-0 lead in the first inning with back-to-back RBI knocks from Brayden Manning and Jordan Malott.  Manning roped a double in the first inning of both contests, moving into sole possession of second place on TU\u2019s all-time career charts for both hits (284) and runs-batted-in (229). The senior also climbed to fourth on the program\u2019s leaderboard for most career doubles (58).  Then much like it had all afternoon, Marian responded immediately with three runs to even the score at 3-3 off starter Wes Hunt, before grabbing its first lead on River Pecina\u2019s CL-leading 17th home run \u2013 a solo shot in the third inning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fletcher Roemmich\u2019s sacrifice fly leveled the score at 4-4 in the fifth, but another solo homer by MU\u2019s Zach Bale in the next half inning put the Knights back in front.  Leading off the top of the sixth, Malott flexed his power and launched the first pitch over the wall in center field for his team-leading and new personal single-season best 14th home run.  With the game tied at 5-5 entering the final inning (seventh), both teams received stellar pitching efforts out of the bullpen. MU\u2019s Chris Adams went six innings and struck out seven, while overcoming five walks and four hits allowed. Frady logged seven innings of four-hit ball with seven punchouts and no walks. The right-hander stranded the potential tying run after a leadoff single in the 12th and picked up his career-best fourth win on the mound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TU left the bases loaded in the top of the seventh and stranded a pair of runners in scoring position in the eighth. Overall, the Trojans posted nine hits and stranded 12 runners in each contest of the twinbill.  Manning (2 for 4, RBI, 2 BB) and Malott (2 for 6, 3 RBI) produced multi-hit efforts in the second game while Simpson ( 1 for 3, RBI, 3 BB), Roemmich, Luke Sutter, Sam Gladd and Quinn Kunkel each logged a base knock.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the Game 1 setback, Brennan Frickel (2 for 3, HR, 2B, 2 RBI), Ben Kennedy (2 for 5, 2 2B) and Manning (2 for 5, 2B, RBI) led the Trojans at the dish. Malott and Roemmich were each responsible for multiple runs produced.  TU raced out to a quick 6-0 lead on a two-out rally and batting around the lineup in the second inning. Roemmich cleared the bases on a three-run triple, followed by RBI singles from Manning and Malott. However, MU loaded the bases with no outs in the next frame and took advantage with seven runs to claim the 7-6 lead on just three hits, including a grand slam by Hector Corona. The Knights extended the lead with three runs in the fourth and one in the fifth to move ahead 11-6. The Knights hit four homers in the first game, including a pair by Zach Bale.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>TU\u2019s lone homer came off the bat of Brennan Frickel, with a solo blast that briefly trimmed the deficit to four, but the Knights plated two more to lead 13-7 after six complete. Frickel doubled in his next at-bat to plate the final run for the Trojans in the eighth.  Both teams finished with nine hits in the opening matchup and the squads combined for 23 walks allowed, including a season-high 10 walks surrendered by the TU pitching staff.  The Trojans and Knights will close out the regular season thia afternoon with a 1 p.m. start time for Game 1 at MU Ballpark. TU has now clinched the top seed for next week\u2019s CL Tournament in Spring Arbor, Michigan, while MU will aim to secure the No. 2 seed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.wnba.com\/\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nba.com\/\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/2kleague.nba.com\/\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/bal.nba.com\/\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/gleague.nba.com\/\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Indiana University Men&#8217;s Tennis Player Matteo Antonescu Awarded the Big Ten Sportsmanship Award\u00a0\u00a0 The Big Ten announced Thursday that Indiana&#8217;s\u00a0Matteo Antonescu\u00a0has been awarded the sportsmanship award for the 2025-26 season.
