No. 19 Men's Soccer Set for Clash with No. 23 Seattle
ORLANDO – The No. 19 UCF men’s soccer team passed its first test of the young campaign. The next awaits just three days later. With a convincing 3-1 season-opening victory over the Mercer Bears in hand, the Knights now set their sights on their second contest of the fall, when the squad will welcome the No. 23 Seattle Redhawks to Orlando for an early-season top-25 matchup Sunday, Aug. 25.
Mariners' Collin Snider: Snags third win Friday
Snider (3-2) got the extra-inning win over the Giants on Friday, firing a scoreless 10th inning during which he issued an intentional walk and recorded two strikeouts. Snider was called on to preserve a 5-5 tie in the 10th after Andres Munoz had struck out the side in the ninth, and the former responded with a crisp showing of his own. The right-hander lowered his season ERA to a stellar 0.98 with what was his 13th consecutive appearance without surrendering an earned run, and he now has four multi-strikeout tallies in his last nine trips to the mound as well.
Mariners' Justin Turner: Contributes as in-game replacement
Turner entered Friday's extra-inning win over the Giants as a pinch hitter in the bottom of the sixth inning and remained in the game at first base, going 1-for-2 with an RBI single, a walk and a run. Turner drew the free pass during his pinch-hit plate appearance, and then...

Pete Carroll's greatest strength sealed his doom for the Seahawks
The Seattle Seahawks moved on from the best coach in their history. Ultimately, the quality that resulted in all those victories led to his dismissal. Pete Carroll is unequivocally the greatest head coach in the history of the Seattle Seahawks. He leads the franchise by comfortable margin of 51 wins. His winning percentage of .606 is the only one above .571 (and that was Mike McCormack over the course of just seven games). And of course, he's the only coach to lead the Hawks to a Super Bowl win. So spare me from the "you just hate Pete" commentary.
Seattle radio legend returns to the air
SEATTLE — In a quiet corner of Seattle Center, DJ Kevin Cole is dancing to a mix that’s echoing across the world. “We absolutely have had to change out the carpet because it gets worn out from people dancing,” Cole said, as he broadcasted from a studio in the back of the nonprofit radio station KEXP.
Mariners place righty reliever on 15-day IL
Before Friday’s game, the Mariners placed right-hander Yimi Garcia on the 15-day injured list due to inflammation in his throwing elbow. The placement is retroactive to Aug. 20. Left-hander Gabe Speier was called up from Triple-A Tacoma in the corresponding move. This is the second time Garcia has hit...
Mariners' high-rated and quick-climbing pitching prospect pulled with another injury
The Mariners 2023 third-round draft pick, Teddy McGraw, has always had the oft-injured but extremely talented label. He's undergone two Tommy John surgeries in a four-year span, with the latest coming during his time at Wake Forest. However, the time sandwiched between the two procedures swayed the Mariners to take a chance on the right-hander.
Seattle, Tacoma have nation’s highest combined sales tax among major cities
(The Center Square) – Seattle and Tacoma took the top two spots in the Tax Foundation’s latest publication on the highest combined state and local sales tax rates among major U.S. cities. Earlier this week, the Washington, D.C.-based think tank released its “Sales Tax Rates in Major Cities, Midyear 2024” report, which calculates “average combined state and local sales tax rates by state, using zip code-level sales tax and population data.” ...

2024 Seahawks 53 Man Roster Prediction and Breakdown
I’ve only attended 2 camp practices, 1 in pads, and broken down the all-22 of the Chargers and Titans a couple times each. Quite a reduction from my usual offseason routine, having 3 kids in 4 years will do that. In my offseason breakdown posted back in January I had Connor Williams, Jerome Baker, Tyrel Dodson, and George Fant as targets in free agency, so I still feel I have a pretty good grasp of what the team will look like come 4pm ET on August 27th. Of course, there are usually one or two surprise cuts, a trade, and a waiver claim, so the 53 players on the roster come opening day on September 8th will likely have a few names not mentioned here, probably at guard, tight end, &/or linebacker.

Stunning photos offer chilling look at Mount St. Helens eruption
The United States Geological Service (USGS) recently shared that Mount St. Helens appears to be going through a "recharge" phase. Naturally, every time we hear news about Mount St. Helens having any volcanic activity - even if it is deemed to be non-threatening - we immediately pay attention. But why is that, when there are over 100 volcanoes in the United States - including 19 in Washington State alone?
