Trace McSorley is returning to Penn State as assistant quarterbacks coach
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) — Former Penn State quarterback Trace McSorley will return to the Nittany Lions as assistant quarterbacks coach.
McSorley was a three-year starter for the Nittany Lions (2016-18) and a sixth-round pick by Baltimore in the 2019 NFL draft. He appeared in three games for the Ravens over two seasons and started one of his six games for Arizona in 2022. He was on practice squads for the Bears and Steelers before Washington released him in training camp last year.
Penn State announced McSorley's hiring on social media Tuesday. He will work with quarterbacks coach Danny O'Brien. They'll have a three-year starter in Drew Allar, who led the Nittany Lions to the College Football Playoff semifinals last season.

Pogačar ready for the Tour de France after winning Critérium du Dauphiné
PARIS (AP) — Tadej Pogačar produced a dominant display ahead of his Tour de France defense by winning the Critérium du Dauphiné for the first time. The UAE Team Emirates rider finished 59 seconds ahead of second-placed Jonas Vingegaard overall after controlling the eighth and final 133-kilometer (83-mile) stage on Sunday from Val-d'Arc to the Plateau du Mont-Cenis. 'Once again today, the team did a great job,' Pogačar said. 'We managed to defend the jersey and we can go home happy and prepare for the Tour.' Pogačar will seek his fourth Tour de France title in July. The Slovenian finished third Sunday with the same time as his major rival, two-time Tour champion Vingegaard of Visma-Lease a Bike, who was second. Lenny Martinez won the final stage in 3 hours, 34 minutes, 18 seconds for Bahrain Victorious, atop the Plateau du Mont-Cenis located on the French-Italian border. The French rider finished 34 seconds ahead of Vingegaard and Pogačar. Pogačar reacted with ease to Vingegaard's attack on the final climb to Col du Mont-Cenis in a tough race that Tour contenders use to fine-tune their preparations. After winning the opening stage, outsprinting Vingegaard and Mathieu van der Poel, Pogačar went on the attack in the mountains. He took charge by winning the sixth stage on Friday, climbing to the finish line alone to beat Vingegaard by 1:01 and take an overall lead of 43 seconds over the Dane. He captured the seventh stage on Saturday in a similar fashion, beating Vingegaard by 14 seconds and extending his overall lead to 1:01. Sunday's stage was the last day of Romain Bardet's professional career. The Frenchman, who is retiring, finished second in the 2016 Tour. ___ AP sports:

Twins scratch Byron Buxton from series finale vs. Astros after being hit by pitch
HOUSTON (AP) — Minnesota Twins center fielder Byron Buxton was scratched from Sunday's lineup a day after being hit on the left elbow by a pitch. Buxton left Saturday's game against the Houston Astros with a bruised elbow after Hunter Brown's throw in the sixth inning of a 3-2 loss . Twins manager Rocco Baldelli said after the game they didn't believe the injury was serious and that Buxton was listed as day to day. Buxton — scratched about an hour before first pitch — had been scheduled to lead off and play center field in the series finale. He was replaced in center field by Harrison Bader. Buxton is batting .273 with 11 homers and 41 RBIs in 54 games this season. He missed about two weeks last month after sustaining a concussion in a collision with Carlos Correa. ___ AP MLB:
