Lightning stops NRL game between Souths and Bulldogs
Lightning has forced South Sydney and Canterbury from the field at Accor Stadium, in the first time weather has stopped an NRL game in more than a decade. Referee Adam Gee ordered South Sydney and Canterbury off around 4:40pm on Sunday afternoon with the Bulldogs leading 18-0 in the 31st minute. Lightning had struck nearby twice before the stoppage, with the second flash prompting audible gasps from the modest crowd. Soon beforehand, security had ordered patrons in lower seating areas to take cover as rain teemed down. Mother nature puts a pause to the game ⛈️📺 Watch #NRLSouthsDogs on ch. 502 or stream on Kayo: BLOG: MATCH CENTRE: — Fox League (@FOXNRL) June 15, 2025 Sideline commentators and ground staff also fled the field with the players. The stadium DJ played the classic rock hit 'Rain' by Dragon, making light of the situation. Two young fans took advantage of the situation and rushed onto the field, prompting a small army of security guards into action on the sodden turf. Soon before 5pm, the referee determined in consultation with venue management and ground staff that play could resume imminently, with players to be afforded two minutes of warm-up time before the resumption. It was the first time since Anzac Day in 2015 that a match had been paused due to weather, with hail forcing St George Illawarra and Sydney Roosters off that day. Before that, the last time weather interrupted a game was in 2009. The Bulldogs dominated the early exchanges of round 15's final game, with Toby Sexton scoring the first try as he fights for his spot in the team's halves.

USC women finish second to Georgia at NCAA outdoor track and field championships
EUGENE, Ore. — Buoyed by top performances in the hammer throw, high jump and 400 meters, the Georgia women's track and field squad distanced itself from the opposition and cruised to its first outdoor national championship in team history. Georgia lapped the field with 73 points ahead of runners-up USC (47) and third place Texas A&M (43). Fourth-year Bulldogs coach Caryl Smith Gilbert also won national titles at USC in 2018 and 2021. Olympic gold medalist Aaliyah Butler and Dejanea Oakley took the first two spots in the 400 meters with Butler posting a 49.26 and Oakley a 49.65. Butler's time was the fifth best all-time for a collegian and Oakley was eighth. The Bulldogs expanded their lead when Elena Kulichenko won the high jump for the second straight year after tying for the title last year. The Odessa, Russia, native won with a jump of 6 feet, 5 inches. Michelle Smith, a freshman, finished third in the 400 meter hurdles at 55.20 to clinch the team title. Skylynn Townsend took sixth in the triple jump at 44-4¼. Georgia ended the night by finishing first in the 4x400-meter relay with Butler taking the lead in the final leg with a winning time of 3:23.62. The Bulldogs entered Saturday competition in the lead with 26 points after Stephanie Ratcliffe won the hammer throw on Thursday with a nation-leading distance of 234 feet, 2 inches. Washington and USC shared the lead earlier Saturday night after Washington's Sophie O'Sullivan won the 1,500 meters and USC's Samirah Moody won the 100, but Georgia got 18 points from Butler and Oakley and never looked back. USC also won the 4x100-meter relay at 42.22. Georgia also got points in the javelin with a second-place finish from freshman Manuela Rotundo and a fourth-place finish from Lianna Davidson. Senior Keslie Murrell-Ross finished sixth in the shot put.
