The boys in Blue and Yellow are sitting at 14-2 on the season, winning the section in dominating fashion over Johnson City, 16-7, and looking to continue with that trend into the Class C state tournament. 'The game plan is always the same, the game plan's just, you know, score points,' said Logan McGuire. 'Obviously, we want to finish with the win.'

Billionaire Bill Ackman buys $2.8 billion of popular tech stock

In 1965 the legendary investor Warren Buffett bought control of Berkshire Hathaway. () . He gradually sold off the textile businesses and invested heavily in insurance, utilities, and retail. Nearly two decades later, a 20-year-old Bill Ackman first heard about Buffett and his investment group and something clicked. 'I was inspired to become an investor,' the hedge-fund manager recalled. After another three decades, Ackman is putting that inspiration into action, planning to build his version of Berkshire Hathaway. On May 5 Ackman's Pershing Square Capital Management announced a $900 million deal to acquire 9 million shares of Howard Hughes Holdings () , a company Ackman wants to turn into a "modern-day version of Berkshire." "We will adopt similar, long-term, shareholder-oriented principles to Berkshire, () and we intend to hold the stock forever," he said. That principle — buy great businesses and hold them — is showing up elsewhere in his portfolio, too. Ackman's Pershing Square oversees a highly concentrated portfolio of just 11 stock holdings. The fund has delivered strong returns over time. It has returned 42.17% over the past three years and 149.55% over the past decade, according to data from billionaire investor made some notable moves in the first quarter. According to a 13F filing Ackman invested nearly 18% of Pershing Square's capital in ride-share group Uber Technologies () . The investment totaled more than 30.3 million shares, now valued at $2.8 billion. He first disclosed the position in February. 'We believe that Uber is one of the best managed and highest quality businesses in the world,' Ackman wrote in an X post. 'Remarkably, it can still be purchased at a massive discount to its intrinsic value. This favorable combination of attributes is extremely rare, particularly for a large-cap company,' he added. Alongside the Uber buy, Ackman added to his stakes in Brookfield Corp., Howard Hughes and Hertz () . At the same time, he trimmed positions in Chipotle () , Canadian Pacific () , Hilton () , and Alphabet's Class C shares, while boosting his stake in the Class A () . He fully exited his position in Nike () , selling all 18.8 million shares. Uber's shares are up 52% in 2025 to date and 22% in the past month. They touched a 52-week high $93.60 on May 20. On May 7, Uber posted first-quarter earnings that topped Wall Street San Francisco ride-sharing company reported earnings per share of 83 cents, ahead of the 50 cents Wall Street analysts had expected. Revenue came in at $11.53 billion, up 14% year over year, under the $11.62 billion forecast. Total trips rose 18% from a year earlier to 3 billion, driven by a 14% increase in monthly active platform consumers and a 3% rise in trips per user, the company said in a news release. Looking ahead, Uber expects second-quarter gross bookings of $45.75 billion to $47.25 billion, indicating a 16% to 20% year-over-year increase. Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization are projected at $2.02 billion to $2.12 billion, representing growth of 29% to 35%. The company continues to push forward in autonomous vehicles. In Austin, Uber users can already hail a robotaxi directly through the Uber app. The program is a partnership with Google's () Waymo. In addition to Waymo, Uber is working with Volkswagen, Avride, May Mobility and autonomous-trucking firm Aurora to expand its self-driving initiatives. Outside the U.S., it has partnered with WeRide and Uber's CEO, Dara Khosrowshahi, said the company had reached an annual run rate of 1.5 million autonomous vehicle trips.

It will be great for Uber,' Khosrowshahi said during the May earnings call. 'At the same time, we think that the technology is going to take a lot of time to develop.' JP Morgan analysts raised their price target on Uber to $105 from $92 and affirmed an overweight rating, citing the company's potential in self-driving tech.

Thomas needs drama to advance; Finney rolls to semis

(4)Thomas 18, (5)Athena 13 Olivia Zizzo found Olivia Bommelje for a game winning four yard touchdown with 35 seconds left as the Titans rallied for a Class B quarterfinal win in Webster Monday evening. Zizzo connected with Olivia Smith on a long touchdown in the first half that leveled Thomas with Athena at six. Just before the half, Anna Forman put the Trojans back in front with a TD throw to Emily McMichael. The conversion throw gave Athena a 13-6 lead at the break. Thomas scored once in the second half to draw within a point and might have gotten away with a late Zizzo throw for the game winner. She appeared to lose a flag just before her release. The Titans (11-2) have won five in a row and will move on to face top seeded Arcadia in Thursday's semifinals. Athena finishes the year 10-3. (3)Finney 34, (6)Geneva 14 Lucy Broome had a pair of second half interceptions and Allie Frederickson caught a pair of first half TD passes as the Falcons won a Class C quarterfinal in Penfield Monday. Finney led 28-0 at the half before dueling #7's started trading interceptions. Broome got her first to stop a fourth down play and actually followed with a 21 yard catch for Finney. The next Falcons throw was caught by Athena Tumbelekis, who wears number 7 for the Panthers. Geneva did keep possession for long as Broome stepped in front of a throw a couple snaps later and ran it back for a touchdown. Trinity Maxon had a TD rushing and throwing late for the Panthers, but they could not rally. It was the fifth consecutive win for the Falcons, who improved to 11-2-1. Next up is a trip to Hornell for a semifinal date with (2)Canisteo-Greenwood Thursday. Geneva closed their season at 12-6. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
