After runner-up finish, No. 2 women’s soccer looks set for return to the national stage
In the fall of 2023, women’s soccer was Washington University’s team to watch. The Bears held opponents scoreless through the first 15 games of the season, earned their 16th University Athletic Association (UAA) title, and won two penalty shootouts during a run to the National Championship game, where they fell 1-0 to California Lutheran University.
WashU volleyball looks for consistency in 2024
2023 was a season of highs and lows for the Washington University volleyball team. Despite recording six winning streaks of three or more games and finishing 24-10 (5-2 in conference play), a disappointing performance in the UAA tournament resulted in a school-worst sixth-place UAA finish. However, after snagging an at-large...
Cross-country looks ahead to fall season
At last year’s National Championship, the Washington University men’s and women’s cross-country teams finished 17th and 13th respectively, each led by an All-American: then-senior Cullen Capuano on the men’s side and then-senior Alexandra Blake for the women. For Capuano, who is returning for a fifth year as a graduate student, the finish line in Pennsylvania was not the end of the road for his running career in St. Louis.
Under new leadership, men’s soccer gears up for bounceback season
Despite a challenging 2023 season that ended with a 7-8-1 standing, the Washington University men’s soccer team is ready to seize the upcoming season in their fall 2024 campaign. Though the team enters the season unranked in the national top 25, they will look to a combination of new faces and an experienced squad to boost their conference and national standing.

Brutal Cardinals injury at worst time could have surprise silver lining
The St. Louis Cardinals' chances of seeing the postseason were already on life support as the club came into Saturday evening's matchup on the road against the Minnesota Twins. And after that game, an eventual 6-0 loss in Minneapolis, they are even more so. Not only did the Cardinals fall...
Cardinals' Ivan Herrera: Slated for call-up
The Cardinals are expected to recall Herrera from Triple-A Memphis on Sunday, Derrick Goold of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports. Willson Contreras suffered a fractured finger on Saturday and will require a stint on the injured list, opening up a spot on the 26-man roster for Herrera. The 24-year-old will mix in with Pedro Pages behind the dish while Contreras is sidelined.

Happy (belated) 100th Birthday, Jack Buck!

Weekend At Bernie’s: Cardinals Win 3rd In A Row Behind Andre Pallante And A Resourceful Offense.
Hello again. It was a sleepy Saturday morning for me, which I needed. But after drinking an extra coffee, and watching a little college football, I’m ready to write. THE BASICS: Friday’s victory gave the Cardinals their third straight win for the first time since taking four in a row from June 20-24 … the Cardinals pulled themselves up to .500 (64-64) and hadn’t been there since Aug. 13 … the Cardinals still trail first-place Milwaukee by 10 games in the NL Central and remained five games behind the Braves and the No. 3 wild-card chair. The Cardinals have made some progress. They’re now even with the Giants (64-64) in the wild-card standings. The only team between the Cardinals and the No. 3 pod are the Mets, who lead St. Louis by 2 and a ½ games. That said, FanGraphs gives the Cardinals a slim 4 percent chance of making the playoffs.
Charmaine Chapman Society celebrating 30th year
Thirty years ago, Charmaine Chapman, the first female and first African American President and CEO of United Way of Greater St. Louis (UWGSL) and Dr. Donald Suggs, publisher and executive editor of the St. Louis American, decided that Black leaders needed a voice in the philanthropic community. That decision led to the creation of the Charmaine Chapman Society (CCS) which is now one of the largest African American giving societies in the country.
