Record 2.4 million watched Texas win WCWS over Texas Tech
June 10 - It wasn't just Texas celebrating a historic win in the Women's College World Series over the Texas Tech last week. The deciding Game 3 on Friday averaged 2.4 million viewers on ESPN and ESPNU, peaking at 2.7 million, making it the most-watched NCAA softball game ever. In total, the three-game championship series averaged 2.2 million viewers, another record for the WCWS finals. It represents a 13 percent uptick from 2024, when Oklahoma beat Texas in two games to become the first program to win four straight softball national championships. That finals previously set the viewership record, topping the prior mark set in 2015 (Florida over Michigan). On top of it all, ESPN set viewership records for each WCWS game: The first and second games each drew 2.1 million viewers to set Game 1 and Game 2 records of the WCWS championship series. Making its third WCWS finals appearance in four years, Texas beat its in-state rival for the program's first-ever national championship in softball. Teagan Kavan led the way, allowing no earned runs over 31 2/3 innings at the WCWS en route to being named the Most Outstanding Player. --Field Level Media

Texans officially sign RB Nick Chubb to one-year deal
June 9 - Nick Chubb officially has a new home as the Houston Texans announced the signing of the free agent running back on Tuesday. According to The Athletic, Chubb agreed to a one-year deal with Houston worth at least $2.5 million and up to $5 million. While Chubb, 29, could have landed a more lucrative offer from other teams, reports indicated that Chubb would rather agree to an incentive-laden contract to join Texans star Joe Mixon in the backfield. Mixon comes off his second Pro Bowl season, during which he ran for 1,016 yards and 11 touchdowns in his first season with Houston. A second-round pick in 2018, Chubb spent his first seven years in the NFL with the Cleveland Browns, including four that saw him rush for at least 1,000 yards. In total, Chubb ran for 6,843 yards and 51 touchdowns, both of which rank third all-time in franchise history. However, Chubb was sidelined for much of the last two years in Cleveland as a result of knee and foot injuries. --Field Level Media

Capitals F T.J. Oshie, 38, retires after decorated career
June 9 - Olympic hero and longtime NHL forward T.J. Oshie announced his retirement Monday after a 16-year NHL career. Oshie, who did not play in 2024-25 due to a back injury, split his 1,010 career games between the St. Louis Blues (2008-15) and Washington Capitals (2015-24). The Blues selected him in the first round of the 2005 draft, 24th overall. He helped the Capitals win their first and only Stanley Cup in 2018, tallying eight goals (six on the power play) and 13 assists across 24 playoff games. "I would like to thank the Washington Capitals and the St. Louis Blues for giving me the opportunity to play the game I love, all of my teammates who battled with me every night, my coaches who challenged me to be better every day, and the athletic trainers and equipment staff who got me ready to play," Oshie said in a statement via the NHL Players Association. "I also want to thank the fans your energy and passion made every game memorable, and it was an honor to play in front of you." Oshie tallied 695 points in his career (302 goals, 393 assists) and managed double-digit goals in all but one of his 16 seasons. His high-water mark came in 2016-17, when he had 33 goals in 68 games for the Capitals. Oshie was voted to one All-Star Game, representing the Capitals in the 2019-20 season. Injuries limited him to 44 games in 2021-22, 58 in 2022-23 and 52 in 2023-24. A native of Washington State, Oshie is also known for his heroics during the 2014 Winter Olympics. The U.S. went to a shootout against Russia in the preliminary round. International rules allowed for players to be re-used limitlessly in the shootout, and Oshie was used six times -- including five shots in a row. Oshie scored on four of his attempts, including the winner in the eighth shootout round. According to the Capitals, Oshie ranks second in NHL history in shootout shooting percentage with a minimum of 100 attempts (47.1 percent). He is third all-time in game-deciding shootout goals (21) and tied for third in total shootout goals (49). --Field Level Media
