Fewer pages all the rage

·

College media guides across the country are tipping the national scales around a meager one pound beginning this fall because the NCAA has legislated a maximum 208 page rule to further narrow the recruiting gap between large and small schools.

Track stars race in Europe

·

In America, track and field is largely ignored in a non-Olympic year, hiding behind the NFL, NBA, MLB and PGA.
