Seneca High School's new football leadership core had a little something to prove when 2024 began. The Indians had to show they could still be a dominant team after losing six all-state athletes from 2023. Two of those all-staters were quarterback Gavyn Hoover and running back Jackson Marrs. So they had to fill in the gap at two positions that touch the ball the most in a run-first offense that head coach Cody Hilburn runs. "The thing these guys kept hearing was 'We may take a step back and may have to rebuild a little bit.' That's been a chip on their shoulder. They carried that chip throughout the summer and throughout the season," Hilburn said. "They felt like the work they put in during the offseason, there wasn't going to be that down year." The replacements for Hoover and Marrs throughout the year have been Kaden Clouse and Brodie Probert at quarterback and Roman Miller at the running back position. Miller had gotten a share of the reps last year behind Marrs and had that extended varsity experience, but Clouse was a safety on defense last year and only got reps at quarterback in lopsided games. Clouse is 47 of 74 this year for a 63.5% completion rate and 868 yards, 15 touchdowns and only three interceptions. He's run the ball 110 times for 1,253 yards and 14 more scores. Probert is 10 for 11 for 247 yards and five touchdowns passing. He's toted the ball 75 times for 899 yards and 12 touchdowns. The two are used to splitting reps as they were doing that exact thing in junior varsity before coming the varsity quarterbacks. Miler leads the rushing attack with 1,267 yards on 134 rushes and 22 scores. "We knew what we had in him. He never comes off the field. He plays every rep at linebacker, then turns around and he's going to carry it 15 to 20 times a game," Hilburn said of Miller. That's the type of production Hilburn was looking for to replace his all-state kids in the backfield. Hilburn credits the work ethic immediately after the state championship loss last year to how these guys were able to be productive at this rate. "They knew we had to do some things differently to get back there, and that started in January," he said. "Immediate new leadership began to take place." Now that core of leaders has gotten Seneca into the Class 3 state quarterfinal round against Mount Vernon. The Indians and Mountaineers meet at 1 p.m. Saturday in Mount Vernon. "The group before us set a standard for us, and we're just trying to make that standard," Clouse said. "High expectations from the guys before us, but after a while we knew we could do just as good, if not better," Miller said. That extra work doesn't stop in the state quarterfinal week as Hilburn says his quarterback has been taking extra time to throw passes on Sunday — even though there is no practice — to just make sure he's improving his throwing ability. Seneca was also able to use its four returning offensive linemen as a foundation offensively. Now, the one that graduated was another all-state piece in Brian Bigbee. But having that experience returning on the line helped to pave the way for the guys trying to replace an all-state backfield. "It's easy to run the ball when you have a good line up front. Returning them helped a lot," Clouse said. Another key returner that blocks for Clouse, Probert and Miller is tight end Hagen Ginger. Ginger is a key part of the run game, especially when Seneca runs to the outside and he has to help set the edge. Ginger also leads the team with 17 catches for 362 yards and eight touchdowns. Ginger has helped to fill in for the void left by all-state receiver from last year Ethan Altic. Blaze Graham (10 receptions, 347 yards, six touchdowns) and Ty Harris (12 receptions, 157 yards, two touchdowns) — a transfer from Neosho — have helped to fill in as well. The defense is led by Kye Adams with 75 total tackles. He also has an interception and fumble forced this year. Hunter Hanes has 63 total tackles for the second most and also has one interception. Both are juniors. Adams is one of four players with three sacks on the team. Miller adds 55 tackles and five tackles for loss. Probert has 51 tackles and a pair of sacks. Joseph Renfro has tallied 48 tackles and three sacks to go along with eight tackles for loss, two forced fumbles and two recoveries. Clouse has 46 tackles and two interceptions. Blake Hurn and Morgan Vaughn are two key defensive pieces that were all-state athletes, and the Indians had to find a way to slow opponents down after seeing them graduate. The Indians haven't allowed more than 21 points to an opponent this year and only allow 11.5 on average. They've only been held below 40 by one team, and that same team is the only opponent to keep the final score within less than 28 points. That is Saturday's opposition of Mount Vernon. The two teams met back in Week 2 of the regular season, and Seneca won 35-14.8k8 17 apk 。

Friday's matchup between the Boston Bruins and Pittsburgh Penguins had plenty of dramatics despite being a modest three-goal event. The NHL’s Department of Player Safety involved itself Saturday, bestowing a $5K fine on Pittsburgh forward Evgeni Malkin for slashing and fining Boston defenseman Nikita Zadorov $5K for unsportsmanlike conduct. Both fines serve as the maximum allowable under the current Collective Bargaining Agreement. Both incidents are a part of the same event and happened relatively early in the game. According to video evidence provided by TSN , Zadorov began poking Malkin from the bench with his stick. Malkin was positioned on the offensive zone blue line and an offside was called on the Penguins shortly after. Malkin immediately took exception to the poke and violently swung his stick at the Bruins’ bench. His stick made contact with Bruins defenseman Mason Lohrei and a scrum between the two teams began. Zadorov and Malkin were given minor penalties on the play, but the Department of Player Safety reasonably didn’t want it to end there. It’s not the first time either player has received supplementary discipline from the Department of Player Safety in their careers.

The former Cy Young winner re-signed with the Guardians on Wednesday, a reunion that seemed unlikely when he became a free agent following last season. However, the 29-year-old Bieber decided to stick with the AL Central champions after making just two starts in 2024 before undergoing Tommy John surgery. There were other offers. None of them matched what he already had in Cleveland. “It's the relationships,” Bieber said on a Zoom call. "The development staff. The coaching staff. My teammates. Having continuity and familiarity in those realms I feel like can prove beneficial not only to me but my family and everybody really involved. "That was big for me to feel confident in my rehab where I’m at right now. Nobody knows me as well as Cleveland does and vice versa, so I’m happy to be continuing with them." Bieber agreed last week to a one-year, $14 million contract . The deal includes a $16 million player option for 2026. Not long ago, it seemed as if Bieber, who is 62-32 with a 3.22 ERA in 132 starts over seven seasons for Cleveland, was determined to continue his career elsewhere. He had turned down previous long-term offers in the past from the Guardians, and it was expected he would sign with another contender, likely on the West Coast. But the California native has a special connection with the Guardians, who selected him in the fourth round of the 2016 draft. And while a setback, the injury and surgery helped Bieber realize that he was already in the perfect place. “I had plenty of great meetings and beneficial and progressive meetings with other ball clubs,” he said. "Everybody handled everything first class all the way, and I’ve got great things to say about plenty of other organizations. “Ultimately, Cleveland made the call and I was happy to receive it and come to terms and so I’m happy with where I’m at. My family’s ecstatic. It was very clearly the right decision for not only myself, my family, and we’re excited to continue it.” Bieber, who won the AL Cy Young in the pandemic-shortened 2020 season, threw only 12 innings last season before lingering issues with his elbow forced him to have surgery. He is expected to join Cleveland's rotation at some point in 2025. He's throwing three days a week at 90 feet and encouraged by his progress. As for when he'll take the mound in a game, that's currently unknown. “I’m pushing, pushing, pushing.” he said. “I feel great. I haven’t skipped a beat. When I ask for a (return) date, they don’t even give me a date. So there’s a long way to go.” A two-time All-Star, Bieber burst onto the national stage in 2019 when he was named MVP of the midsummer event in Cleveland. He has the highest strikeout ratio per nine innings (10.2) and third-highest winning percentage (.660) in the franchise's 124-year history. Bieber is one of just three Cleveland pitchers to start five season openers, joining Stan Coveleski (1917-21) and Corey Kluber (2015-19). While Bieber had some elbow issues in the past, he didn't appear to be struggling before being shut down. He struck out 11 in six scoreless innings against Oakland on March 28, and followed that up with six more shutout innings at Seattle on April 2. Days later, and with his season officially over, Bieber became emotional during a news conference at Progressive Field. He knew that in the short-term his life would be different and baseball, as he had always known it, would be on the backburner. Bieber said it took a while before he “digested” his new reality. He coped by immersing himself in his recovery, and Bieber found joy in watching his teammates storm through an unexpected season to a division title. Although it may not have been the same because he wasn't contributing on the field the way he always had, the hardships may have given Bieber something he needed. “It’s provided a lot of perspective,” he said. “It was a hard season this year for me and my family, but it was a great one. We’re expecting a baby and it was a season full of growth and I’m very excited to continue that into 2025.” AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/MLB
