After the Middletown High boys lacrosse teams authored one of the most improbable comebacks in state finals history to claim its first championship, coach Dominic Ceresini, junior midfielder Ryan McLister and sophomore goalie Calvin Smith are this week's guests on The Final Score podcast. The guys chat with host Greg Swatek about their improbable 9-8 victory over Fallston High School in the Class 1A championship game at Stevenson University, during which they overcame a 7-0 halftime deficit and 8-1 deficit with about 15 minutes to play. Had they given up hope? When did they think a comeback was even possible? What were they thinking once the game ended and they had actually won? The guys also talk about what made the team so resilient. After starting the season 0-4, the Knights didn't lose again. They won 15 straight on the way to the state championship. What turned the season around? Where did the team's resolve and never-give-up attitude come from? Lastly, what does the team's future look like? Will they be in position to win another championship next spring? Prior to that conversation, FNP sports writer Alexander Dacy joins Greg to talk about Middletown's amazing comeback, which he covered for the paper, his recent vacation to the Outer Banks in North Carolina and the start of the Frederick Keys season.

After winning the Class 4A state title for the second straight season, becoming the first Frederick County lacrosse program to win back to back state titles, coach Gavin Donahue, senior defender JP McEvoy and junior midfielder Jayden Sharper are this week's guests on The Final Score podcast. The trio chats with host Greg Swatek about the challenge of defending a state title. Is it harder to win the first one or to do it again? They discuss the 5-2 victory over longtime nemesis Broadneck in the state final, why the game was so low scoring and how they were able to prevail. They guys also talked about how a pair of midseason losses and a players-only meeting completely changed the team's focus and the direction of its season. Lastly, they talk about the future of the program and how it plans to maintain this high level of success.

3 local stories, 4 headlines from around the world, and 3 things that make Jason Longshore smile about soccer... it's the 3-4-3 from the May 20 edition of Atlanta Soccer Tonight

Today on the show is the 18-time individual state champ from Louisiana, Aiden Monistere. Yes, you heard that right, this man is an 18-time state champion in the state of Louisana, one of if not the most dominant distance runners in the history of the state. He is a 4:06 guy for mile, 8:46 for 2 mile, and the reason I had him on the show today was that he just won 4 state titles in 4 hours in his classification, winning the 4x800m, 800m, 1600m, and 3200m. This dude is crazy, so many amazing insights from Aiden today. We talk all about his historic day at the state meet, his legacy, as well as his thoughts on going to Iowa State next year, and how being a middle school triathlete has formed him into the runner he is today.Please, before we get into this episode, if you haven't already, then please, wherever you are, in your car, at work, on a run, give this podcast a follow and a five-star review on whatever platform you are listening on. That goes a long way in supporting the growth of The Sunday Shakeout so that I can keeping bringing to you some of the greatest stories in the sport of running and in that process, share love and passion for track and field and distance running.I hope you enjoy this episode of The Sunday Shakeout!

In this short segment of the Revenue Builders Podcast, we revisit the discussion with Marcello Gallo, CRO at Sigma Computing, tackling one of the most critical and misunderstood phases of complex enterprise sales: procurement. They dissect the challenges of "separation of church and state," the pitfalls of weak champions, and the importance of owning the final stretch of the sales cycle with confidence, conviction, and clarity of value.KEY TAKEAWAYS[00:00:25] Understand “Separation of Church and State”: Champions often step back during procurement. Plan for it, but don't surrender the deal.[00:01:33] “Participate in Your Own Rescue”: Teach champions to fight for the value they believe in—even through procurement.[00:03:15] Extreme Ownership is Non-Negotiable: Blaming procurement delays is a weak excuse. Elite sellers own the entire process.[00:04:00] Know the Negative Consequences: It's not just about the pain — it's about what happens if the problem doesn't get solved now.[00:05:54] True Champions Have Power and Influence: They actively sell on your behalf and are invested in your success. Anything less is not a real champion[00:06:38] Elite Sellers Multiply Champion Power: The best reps elevate their champions inside the account. It's not seller vs. buyer—it's a partnership.QUOTES[00:01:54] “You can't get alligator arms during procurement. If this is what you want delivered, you have to participate in your own rescue.”[00:03:35] “Extreme ownership means the deal is yours. No excuses. If procurement's dragging, you didn't plan it right.”[00:04:59] “Without understanding the negative consequences, you can't drive urgency — and urgency drives deals.”[00:05:54] “A true champion has power and influence, is actively selling on your behalf, and has a vested interest in your success.[00:07:02] “If a rep's saying, ‘It's us versus them,' you're in trouble. It means you never had a real champion to begin with.”Listen to the full conversation through the link below.https://revenue-builders.simplecast.com/episodes/scaling-high-growth-companies-with-marcello-galloEnjoying the podcast?

Welcome in for another edition of the Morning Espresso, presented by our friends at Oglethorpe University, Atlanta's premier undergraduate learning experience and soccer powerhouse. It's rivalry weekend in MLS, and it's kind of fitting that Atlanta hosts Philadelphia on Saturday night. Not sure if the league truly sees it as a rivalry, but it's felt that way on the field over the past few years. Philly won 3-0 earlier this season and Atlanta will be trying to build on their draw in Austin from Wednesday night. Philly came back to win 3-2 on a late goal from Tai Baribo against the LA Galaxy on Wednesday. Georgia HS state champions have been crowned the and the season will come to a close tonight in Duluth and in Macon. It's the 2A state championships in Macon, our friend Matteen Rad will be on the call for the NFHS Network there as Drew Charter's boys face Shaw while Pike County's girls play Savannah Arts. Madison Crews and I will be in Duluth for 5A as Roswell's girls try to finish the season unbeaten as they play Northgate while Sprayberry's boys try to knock off top ranked River Ridge. Join us on the NFHS Network starting at 5pm.Barcelona won their 28th La Liga title against their rivals Espanyol as Lamine Yamal scored another brilliant goal. It's a treble year for the Blaugrana as they added to their previously won SuperCopa and Copa del Rey. However, it wouldn't be Barcelona if there were stories about financial silliness. They're trying to get the VIP ticket sale completed that somehow allowed them to register Dani Olmo and Pau Victor done in order to help their accounts and salary limit for next season. Watch the video as I try to make sense of it all (probably failing to do so). Be on the lookout on our social media accounts (@SoccerDownHere) for clips from Jude Bellingham today as he spoke to FIFA this week about Real Madrid's ambitions for the upcoming Club World Cup. It's a big opportunity for them to start the Xabi Alonso era off right. They're also trying to add CB Dean Huijsen and LB Alvaro Fernandez ahead of the tournament. Inter is trying to add Marseille winger Luis Henrique as well as 3-4 other players for the tournament. They're also trying to win Serie A and the Champions League before that. They host 5th place Lazio this weekend while league leaders Napoli travel to relegation threatened Parma. A win for Napoli combined with a loss for Inter would send the trophy south to Naples. Anything else sees it come down to the final weekend. More in the video and podcast, Morning Espresso will be back on Monday morning to recap the weekend.Have a great weekend y'all!

Send us a textWhat does it take to build a high school baseball powerhouse ranked #1 in Arkansas and among the top 25 programs nationally? Coach Leighton Hardin of Conway High School pulls back the curtain on his championship formula.The secret to Conway's "Wampus Cats" success starts with three non-negotiable values: team, toughness, and competitiveness. Coach Hardin demonstrates how following legendary coaches throughout his career prepared him to establish his own winning culture while respecting program traditions.You'll discover Conway's innovative practice approach, including their game-changing pregame throwing routine that ensures players are mentally and physically ready from the first pitch. Hardin explains why practicing above game speed prepares his team for any situation they'll face in competition.Perhaps most fascinating is how Conway adapted when faced with physical limitations. Without power hitters throughout the lineup, Harden implemented a specialized pitching strategy and small-ball approach that led to a state championship with an undersized team. His emphasis on two-strike hitting and situational baseball provides a masterclass in maximizing team strengths.The mental side of baseball receives special attention as Coach Hardin shares his refreshing perspective on failure: "There was one perfect human that lived. It was about 2,000 years ago and that's none of us." This honest approach creates an environment where players develop resilience rather than fear of mistakes.Beyond the diamond, Harden reveals his ultimate goal of developing "productive members of society, great husbands, great fathers" – demonstrating why Conway's success transcends wins and losses. Whether you coach baseball or simply appreciate leadership excellence, this conversation delivers practical wisdom you can apply immediately.Ready to transform your coaching approach? Subscribe, leave a review, and share this episode with a coach, player or parent who needs this perspective on building championship culture.Join the Baseball Coaches Unplugged podcast where an experienced baseball coach delves into the world of high school and travel baseball, offering insights on high school baseball coaching, leadership skills, hitting skills, pitching strategy, defensive skills, and overall baseball strategy, while also covering high school and college baseball, recruiting tips, youth and travel baseball, and fostering a winning mentality and attitude in baseball players through strong baseball leadership and mentality.Support the show Follow: Twitter | Instagram @Athlete1Podcast https://www.athlete1.net Sponsor: The Netting Professionals https://www.nettingpros.com

In this powerful episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, we're joined by Jen Hardy—COO at Academy of Action and a transformation-driven educator, speaker, and coach. Jen opens up about the toll burnout took on her career as a high school coach and athletic coordinator, and how it pushed her to redefine her life's purpose. From sleeping in her car to rediscovering her worth beyond achievements, Jen shares the inner shifts that helped her reclaim clarity, emotional literacy, and peace. Tune in to hear her insights on nervous system regulation, identity shifts, emotional responsibility, and creating sustainable success—especially for high performers in pressure-cooker roles. About the Guest:Jen Hardy is the COO at the Academy of Action and a certified transformation coach who blends logic with emotion to help high-impact professionals evolve without burning out. A former educator and decorated championship coach, Jen now supports leaders, first responders, and change-makers in crafting emotionally resilient, purpose-driven lives. Key Takeaways: Burnout isn't just exhaustion—it's a misalignment between doing and being. The body whispers before it screams; don't wait for the crash to make changes. Emotional literacy and saying "no" are essential to living better. Nervous system regulation is key—20-minute walks and meditation help. Letting go of an identity can feel like grief—but it's the gateway to self. Real change starts with awareness, ownership, and presence.

After winning the girls 115-pound weight class last weekend at the state wrestling tournament, Brunswick High freshman Kate Virgilio is this week's guest on The Final Score podcast. Virgilio chats with host Greg Swatek about her championship victory — she pinned Liberty's Aubrey Ohler in 5 minutes, 55 seconds after being pinned by Ohler earlier in the season — and the road that led up to it. She talks about how she got her start in wrestling and what it's been like wrestling and beating boys for most of her young career to this point. She chats about the difference when it comes to wrestling girls. And she talks about the legacy she'd like the leave and the opportunity she hopes to create for other girls in wrestling across the county. Prior to that conversation, FNP sports writer Alexander Dacy joins Greg to discuss the end of the winter sports season after the Middletown boys and the Oakdale girls lost in the state basketball semifinals. They talk about the Knights' loss to New Town and the Bears setback against South River and how both teams acquitted themselves well against high-powered opponents.

Allie Coyle is the head coach of the Montgomery Blair Boys Soccer Varsity team. Over the last 3 years as the head coach of the Varsity Boys Soccer, she has led the team to numerous titles including: 2x County Division Champions (2022, 2023), 2x Maryland 4A Region Champions (2022, 2024), Maryland 4A Semifinalist (2022), and, most recently, Maryland 4A State Champions (2024).  Through numerous injuries as an athlete that required multiple surgeries, she learned that it doesn't matter how bad you get knocked down, what matters is how you get up. She knew her teammates needed her, and she needed them. While working as a teacher as an adult, a group of boys lost their coach mid-season and approached her to help. By saying yes and showing up for them, they began to show up for each other. Allie instilled her refusal to take no for an answer coupled with a culture a positivity. The outcome is remarkable. Coyle  became the first female of a boys' soccer team to win the State Championship in the state of Maryland. This fall she not only brought in the coveted trophy but earned the title of Maryland's Large Public High School Coach of the Year by the Maryland Association of Coaches of Soccer, as well as the Boys Soccer Coach of the Year from the Washington Post's All Met. @coach.coyle, @montblairsoccer
