Angel Reese wore a custom Maryland shirt while attending brother's Sweet 16 game
Angel Reese was out in full support for her former college team — the Maryland Terrapins — and her brother Julian during the team's Sweet 16 appearance.
Maryland met Florida in the Sweet 16 on Thursday night, with the Terrapins falling short of the Gators in a tough 87-71 loss to knock them out of the men's NCAA tournament. Even still, Chicago Sky star Angel Reese was in attendance at the game to support her brother Julian Reese after the Terrapins shocked the basketball world with Derik Queen's buzzer-beater in the earlier Round of 32.
Queen became an immediate sensation after the buzzer-beater and his postgame "I'm from Baltimore" comments were a rallying cry for Maryland after the win. Well, on Thursday, Angel Reese attended Maryland's Sweet 16 game in a really cool custom "I'm from Baltimore" shirt from Brown Boy Nation!
Here's a better look at the shirt, showing Julian Reese on the front as well.
Even though Maryland's run in the men's NCAA tournament has ended, what a cool move from Angel Reese to show up to support her brother in custom threads!

Two Minnesotans help lead Oklahoma Sooners to 7th NCAA women's gymnastics title
It was a rookie year to remember for Lily Pederson and Elle Mueller on the University of Oklahoma women's gymnastics team. The freshmen helped lead the Sooners to their seventh NCAA title back in April. "I knew it could be achievable, but I didn't know freshman year, right out of the gate," Mueller said. "Being able to have two people from the same state, and two friends being able to go to the same college, and accomplish both of our dreams and goals, it's amazing," Pederson said. Pederson grew up competing for Flips Gymnastics in White Bear Lake, Minnesota, and Mueller at Twin City Twisters in Champlin, Minnesota. The two often competed against each other as kids.

Now, these northerners are creating names for themselves in the Southeastern Conference (SEC). "Yeah, we're really proud. I mean, we get made fun of for our accents sometimes, but it's fine, it's totally fine," Pederson said, laughing. It was a rare experience for two freshmen to contribute in big ways at the Division I NCAA Nationals. Mueller competed on the floor, earning a 9.90, and again on the vault, earning a 9.98 for the Sooners. "I wasn't competing for myself anymore, I was competing for my team because we all wanted to win that national championship," Mueller said. Pederson competed on the beam, vault and bars at nationals. She rebounded from a fall on the beam in the semifinals in a huge way, earning a 9.9375 after nailing her dismount when it mattered most.

"It was such an amazing feeling, and knowing everyone believed in me and was confident in me, like the celebration after, it was a feeling like no other. I was feeling all the emotions and it's a feeling I'll never forget." No matter how big the wins are now and in the future, these gymnasts are always thankful for where the love of this sport started. "[It] keeps me humble and keeps me to myself and reminds me of how far I've come," Mueller said. The Sooners had a nearly undefeated season and won the SEC for the first time in this conference.

Riley Gaines talks public's reaction to Simone Biles' personal attack: 'Almost feel bad for her'
Riley Gaines suggested on Monday in a radio interview that she was stunned by the public's response to Simone Biles' personal attack against her. The Olympic great launched into Gaines with a post responding to the former NCAA swimmer criticizing Minnesota softball officials for turning comments off of a post celebrating a high school's state championship win with a transgender player on the team. Biles called Gaines "truly sick" among other things. But the social media reaction didn't appear to get behind the gold medalist. "To acknowledge how the public has shifted to this, look at Simone Biles' comments section, go on Instagram, go on Twitter, go on any article that's being posted, go on TikTok and she is getting absolutely demolished to the point where I almost feel bad for her, like I really do," Gaines said on "Clay & Buck." "I have read these comments, I'm like, 'oh my gosh.' I was prepared when I got that notification on my phone for that onslaught of hatred to come towards me. I was like, 'Oh gosh, she's gonna send all of her little minion people who follow her over to my page.' That is not at all what is happening. I haven't heard a single negative comment about myself following this interaction." Gaines pointed out the recent spate of transgender athletes winning championships in girls' sports across the country. "Minnesota, California, Washington, Oregon and Maine, where boys stole state qualifying spots, state championships or podium spots from deserving, hard-working girls," the OutKick contributor added. "So, the whole 'it doesn't really happen' argument, it can't stand at all when it continues to happen. "But that's the classic progression. It never really happened — that was step one. Then it slowly shifts to, 'OK, well, it is happening, but it's not happening a lot, therefore we shouldn't be concerned.' Then it progresses to, 'OK, well, it's happening, and here's why it's a good thing.' And then the final stage of it is, 'it's happening, it's a good thing, and you're going to accept it — or else." Gaines revealed the support her stance on transgender athletes in women's and girls' sports received in various comments' sections during an episode of the "Gaines for Girls" podcast. Biles has not reacted since her first post toward Gaines on Friday. Follow Fox News Digital's sports coverage on X and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

Former NBA All-Star Vows to Stop Talking About Angel Reese After Recent Viral Video
Former NBA All-Star Vows to Stop Talking About Angel Reese After Recent Viral Video originally appeared on Athlon Sports. With the fandom of the WNBA skyrocketing over the past couple of seasons, there has also been an increase in the amount of critics who have begun following the 29-year old professional league. Advertisement While players all over the league have felt the wrath of social media warriors who find it fun to antagonize athletes, there may not be a player in the league who is on the receiving end of more mockery, than Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese. The No. 7 pick in the 2024 WNBA Draft who was named an WNBA All-Star as a rookie has frequently drawn comparisons to draft classmate and college foe, Caitlin Clark. While they are both great players in their own right, Clark's game is heavily centered around her offensive abilities while Reese is more known for her rebounding. As a result of this, Reese's offensive limitations have been frequently on display. Whether it's a group of fans routinely betting on her to miss her first shot of every game, or a video of her missing contested put-backs at practice amassing 370,000 views, fans have not been shy at poking fun of her struggles. It has gotten to the point where former NBA All-Star and host of "Club 520," Jeff Teague, has decided he won't talk about Reese anymore on his show. Chicago Sky forward Angel Reese (5) looks on during a Lee-Imagn Images On a recent episode of his podcast, Teague's co-hosts went to mock Reese for the aforementioned layup video during a segment titled "Get Well Soon." While the crew around him was laughing, Teague, who was a part of the Milwaukee Bucks' 2021 title team, shut it down. Advertisement "Man she missing in practice," Teague asked. "Turn this bro. Turn this off y'all. We not doing that. We is it off this is the last thing I'm gonna do. We not talking about Angel Reese no it's in a positive light. "Y'all keep making fun of her," Teague said. "People gonna think we got a problem with her and we don't." Following the Sky's blowout loss to the Fever on Saturday, which saw her grab 12 rebounds while scoring four points, Reese's career rebounds total (532) has now surpassed her career points total (526). She and the Sky will have a chance to bounce back on Tuesday against the New York Liberty.
