Gonzaga wrestlers keep things loose all the way to another DCSAA title

Gonzaga wrestlers keep things loose all the way to another DCSAA title

Washington Post16-02-2025

Bo Sulc is the resident DJ for Gonzaga wrestling practices. Some days, the junior plays old-school hip-hop; other days, he goes for a mellow vibe with house music. Electronic dance music is the choice if he wants to limit talking and keep everyone moving.
For Friday's practice ahead of the D.C. State Athletic Association tournament, Sulc played Steve Aoki and other EDM tunes. He wanted to bring an upbeat tempo and get his teammates sweating before making weight Saturday.

Stanley Cup Final Series Betting Preview: Oilers-Panthers Odds, Best Bets

The Stanley Cup Final, which starts Wednesday, promises to be a competitive rematch between the Oilers and Panthers. Florida took down Edmonton 4-3 in the 2024 Stanley Cup Final. The Stanley Cup Final, which starts Wednesday, promises to be a competitive rematch between the Oilers and Panthers. Florida took down Edmonton 4-3 in the 2024 Stanley Cup Final. Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. While this year's NBA Finals features one of the most lopsided matchups in league history, at least according to oddsmakers, the top sportsbooks all see the Stanley Cup Final rematch between the Florida Panthers and Edmonton Oilers as a near-coin flip. The Panthers reached this year's Stanley Cup with wins over Tampa Bay (4-1), Toronto (4-3) and Carolina (4-1). The Oilers went through the Kings (4-2), Golden Knights (4-1) and Dallas Stars (4-1) to clinch their chance to avenge last year's Stanley Cup Final loss to the Panthers. Stanley C up Final Series Winner Betting Odds DK FD bet365 Florida Panthers -120 -122 Edmonton Oilers +100 +102 Stanley Cup Final Series Spread Odds You can bet on either the Panthers or Oilers to win the series by 1.5 or 2.5 games. The winner would have to get it done in six games (4-2) to cover at -1.5, and it would need to win 4-1 (or 4-0) to cover at -2.5. The odds below come from DraftKings: EDM -1.5 (+180); FLA +1.5 (-220) EDM -2.5 (+340); FLA +2.5 (-450) FLA -1.5 (+170); EDM +1.5 (-200) FLA -2.5 (+370); EDM +2.5 (-500) Stanley Cup Final Total Game Odds Sportsbooks including DraftKings offer bettors the ability to choose exactly how many games this series will go.

Additional Stanley Cup Final series markets include Game/Series Double and Correct Score. At FD, the two correct score options with the shortest odds are Edmonton 4-3 (+390) and Florida 4-3 (+470). Stanley Cup Final Betting Analysis, Pick Looking Back at 2024 Stanley Cup Final These teams are intimately familiar with each other after a memorable seven-game clash a year ago. One of the biggest differences is that this time, it's the Oilers who hold home-ice advantage after they had to play last year's series decider in South Florida. Florida jumped out to 3-0 lead over Edmonton in last year's Final, outscoring the Oilers 11-4 in Games 1-3 of that series. The Panthers did a remarkable job defending Oilers superstar Connor McDavid in those games, as he was scoreless in each of them, though he did notch 1 assist in Game 2 and 2 assists in Game 3. Edmonton exploded for 18 total goals across Game 4 (EDM 8, FLA 1), Game 5 (EDM 5, FLA 3) and Game 6 (EDM 5, FLA 1) to tie the series at 3-3, but the Panthers pullled out Game 7 at home, 2-1. Florida's Game 7 win prevented McDavid -- who did not tally a point in either Game 6 or Game 7 -- and the Oilers from completing their historic rally. In addition to their impressive work containing McDavid (outside of Games 4 and 5, when he piled up three goals and five assists), the Panthers also stifled All-Star C Leon Draisaitl (0 goals, 3 assists) throughout the series, with the latter failing to register a point in five of seven games. Another interesting aspect of last year's series was how well both teams killed penalties. In a seven-game series in which Florida and Edmonton combined to score 42 goals, just six came on special teams: Edmonton tallied 3 power play goals to 1 for Florida, and the Oilers also scored twice shorthanded. Stanley Cup Final Prediction, Best Bets This is a difficult series to predict, as anyone who bet on Panthers-Oilers a year ago vividly remembers. There's history, home-ice, revenge and the McDavid factor on Edmonton's side. The Oilers star has a chance to follow in the footsteps of both Wayne Gretzky and Sydney Crosby by winning his first Cup in a Stanley Cup rematch. Gretzky and none other than the Oilers lost to the Islanders in 1983, then won the Cup at the Isles' expense a year later. Crosby and the Penguins followed suit in '08 and '09, losing to the Red Wings in the 2008 Stanley Cup Final before winning it all the following year. Edmonton has the unenviable task of having to go through a gritty, veteran Panthers team -- and I don't blame anyone who simply refuses to bet against Paul Maurice's team. But with a stronger, deeper supporting cast this time around and a goalie, Stuart Skinner, coming off a good series in the WCF, I like McDavid and the Oilers to avoid falling into a 3-0 hole and win this franchise's first Stanley Cup since 1990. So, let's go with the Oilers to get it done in a long series -- 0.5 units: Oilers 4-3 (+390 at FanDuel) -- with Edmonton coming out on top in front of a raucous Game 7 crowd at Rogers Place.

Avicii Posthumously Scores A New No. 1 Album

Avicii's Avicii Forever debuts at No. 1 on the U.K. Dance Albums chart and lands on six other ... More tallies, hitting the top 20 on all but one of them as it arrives. SAN FRANCISCO, CA - FEBRUARY 07: DJ Avicii performs onstage during Rolling Stone Live SF with Talent Resources on February 7, 2016 in San Francisco, California. (Photo byfor Rolling Stone) In the years since Avicii passed away in 2018, millions of people around the world have continued to listen to the groundbreaking electronic dance music the DJ left behind. The Swedish musician's work was thrust back into the spotlight several months ago when Netflix released a pair of films about his music and his life. On May 16, his first greatest hits compilation, Avicii Forever, was finally shared, and it's clear his fanbase remains strong, as the set has become a quick top performer in the United Kingdom – a market where he was hugely successful during his lifetime. Avicii Forever debuts on seven different rankings in the U.K. this week. It opens at No. 1 on just one tally, the Official Dance Albums chart. That's the only rosters where the collection launches inside the top 10. Avicii posthumously collects his second No. 1 on the Official Dance Albums chart, which ranks the bestselling full-lengths and EPs in the electronic dance style. His debut full-length, True, opened at No. 1 on the tally when it arrived in September 2013. The project would go on to spend 11 weeks at No. 1, including a return to the top spot shortly after his passing — and again earlier in 2025, following the release of his documentary. Avicii has sent half a dozen titles to the Official Dance Albums ranking. One-third of those projects have entered the tally posthumously. All of them have cracked the top 10, and all but one have spent time inside the top three. Avicii Forever opens inside the top 20 on almost every ranking on which it appears in the U.K. It kicks off its time at No. 14 on the Official Album Downloads chart and No. 17 on the Official Albums Sales, Official Physical Albums, and Official Vinyl Albums lists. The DJ's posthumous lead lands at No. 20 on the Official Albums chart, the main ranking of the most consumed full-lengths in the country. The compilation stands out as the twenty-fourth most-streamed release in the nation.

Breakaway Music Festival announces Sacramento stop in October

A new electronic dance music festival is coming to Sacramento in October. Organizers revealed Tuesday that the Breakaway Music Festival's Northern California stop will be in Sacramento on the weekend of Oct. 11-12. Touting itself as the largest touring music festival in the U.S., Breakaway will be hitting seven other cities from May to October before coming to Sacramento. The festival features electronic dance music, with other cities attracting headliners like The Chainsmokers, Zedd, Tiësto, Afrojack and Marshmello. Sacramento's lineup hasn't dropped yet, but organizers said it will be announced soon. Early bird tickets for the festival are already on sale. Breakaway organizers didn't reveal where the festival will be held in Sacramento. However, Breakaway will happen the weekend that the GoldenSky Country Music Festival would have taken place, but that event was put on hiatus until 2026. The weekend before Breakaway is Sacramento's largest music festival, Aftershock.
