Grace’s men’s basketball team displayed another efficient performance in a 92-78 win over Trinity Christian at the Manahan Orthopaedic Capital Center.

College football is troubled, but - like in Monty Python’s “bring out your dead” scene in Holy Grail - it’s “not quite dead yet.”

Fresh off an appearance in the semi-state round last year, the Triton boys basketball team has enjoyed a successful start to the 2025-26 campaign. Winners of three of their first four games, the Trojans played their second game of the week at the Trojan Trench on Friday night and took full advantage of loud and full crowd. Scoring the first 13 points of the game, Triton picked up its second conference win of the year with a 68-35 victory over Pioneer. 

I'd like to talk about the best football team in the state of Indiana. The one that plays in Bloomington.

Coming off of a comeback victory over Huntington North on Tuesday night, the Manchester girls basketball team got back to work on Wednesday night, hosting fellow area team Triton in the second night of a back-to-back. After trading the lead for the better part of three quarters, the Lady Squires took control of the game early in the fourth and didn’t look back, holding on to a 49-44 win.

You guessed it, I am angry.

Both the Manchester and Tippecanoe Valley boys basketball teams came into Tuesday night’s meeting looking for their first win of the season. Both teams battled for all four quarters and then some to get it, but in the end, it was the Squires spoiling former head coach Eli Henson’s return with a 62-57 win in overtime.

Grace College’s volleyball team captured their third straight NCCAA national championship with a thrilling 3-0 victory over Columbia International on Saturday.

The Homestead Spartans 6’5” junior Mack Welker spoiled the Warsaw Tigers boys’ basketball home and regular season opener with a 31-point performance along with 13 rebounds leading this Homestead side to a 48-37 victory in the Tiger Den.

A stout defensive performance lifted Grace’s men’s basketball team beyond Huntington 78-59 on Wednesday.

Well folks, we’ve finally reached the tipping point. 

With the team’s last game, a heartbreaking loss to rival Rochester, coming over a week ago, the Tippecanoe Valley girls basketball team headed into Wednesday night’s game at Plymouth with something to prove. They proved quite a bit, going wire-to-wire in an impressive 69-35 road victory. 

For a couple of weeks now, Ole Miss head football coach Lane Kiffin’s name has been right where he wants it—on the lips of every media member in the country.

Tuesday was a historic night at the Tiger Den for multiple reasons. During the Warsaw girls basketball team’s Northern Lakes Conference opener against NorthWood, senior Joslyn Bricker moved up to second all time on the Lady Tiger scoring list. The game, which ended up 84-15 in favor of the home side, was the 800th win in program history. 

My brain has been more tired than usual, and around 4 p.m. Wednesday afternoon, I was sitting at my desk – the last person in one of the plants where I work – unable to formulate a thought nor begin another task.

Regardless of your world view or what your everyday outlook on life might be, it’s universally accepted that positive people are easier to be around than negative people.

Coming off of their first loss of the season to Jasper County on Saturday, the Warsaw girls basketball team had the opportunity to bounce back on Tuesday in their return to the Tiger Den. Standing in their way was a Penn team the Lady Tigers have had their fair share of success against in recent years. The trend continued, as the home side dominated their opponent to the tune of a 58-23 victory.

Grace’s women’s soccer team produced a statement scoreline in the NAIA Second Round on Saturday.

“Nothing like us ever was” comes from poet Carl Sandburg’s work, “Four Preludes on Playthings of the Wind” – a four-part poem published in 1922. He illustrated a great city, its complacent people, its downfall, and the rats and lizards eventually ruling it.

The Tippecanoe Valley girls basketball season didn’t get off to the best of starts, as the team was blown out by Norwell in the opener. Since then, it’s been a different story. On Friday night, the Lady Vikings defeated LaVille 52-18 for their fifth straight win, second in the Indiana Northern State Conference. 

What began as a simple act of faith in a small Indiana community has grown into a global movement of sports, service, and spiritual transformation.

In the midst of perhaps the “golden age” of Grace Athletics, the Lancers will add another notch to their belt this weekend when the men’s and women’s soccer teams will both host the opening rounds of the NAIA National Tournament at 1st Source Bank Field in Winona Lake. 

The Crossroads League season opened in winning fashion for Grace’s men’s basketball team on Wednesday night.

We are nearly two full years into the 12-team playoff experiment in college football and there is still one glaring problem facing it. 

There was a day, about six years ago, that the people in the Warsaw Athletic Department will never, ever forget.
