The Niners are heading to the game for the first time since 2013, while the Chiefs are ending a half-century Super Bowl drought. The 49ers cruised to a 37-20 win over the Packers.

Patrick Kane reached 1,000 career points when he picked up an assist on Brandon Saad’s third-period goal, and the Chicago Blackhawks beat the Winnipeg Jets 5-2 for their season-high fifth straight win

 

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. (AP) — Illinois defensive passing game coordinator and safeties coach Gill Byrd said Friday he is leaving the program because of an unspecified illness in his family. Byrd, who worked with head coach Lovie Smith for three NFL teams, coached at Illinois for two seasons. Smith said Keynodo Hudson will coach all defensive backs next season after coaching the cornerbacks in 2019. Alfred Davis (defensive tackles coach) and Jimmy Lindsey (defensive ends) will join the program.

 

Trent Frazier scored 16 points, including hitting four 3-pointers, and Brad Underwood’s No. 24 Illinois hung on for a 75-71 win over the Wildcats on Saturday.

 

The PBL Lady Panthers earned another conference win against the Iroquois West Lady Raiders on Thursday. The Lady Panthers have the #1 seed heading into the Conference tournament tonight against St. Anne. PBL Girls Basketball Head Coach Nathan Lawler says a second round matchup could be tough with Clifton Central getting one of their key players back.. 

 

 

Lawler also said that it's hard to beat a team twice as PBL could see IW in the SVC tournament this week.
