Carolina started Game 5 the way it played in Game 4. By the end of the first period, the Hurricanes led 2-0, giving fans at the Lenovo Center hope that their team might be capable of an epic comeback after falling behind 3-0 in the best-of-seven series. The Panthers slammed the door on that, crushing that hope with a three-goal flurry in the second period and a game-winner in the third period. The offensive blizzard put Florida ahead 3-2, and Carter Verhaeghe scored the game-winner late in the third period for the Panthers in their 5-3, Eastern Conference-clinching effort in Raleigh, North...

SANDESTIN — Florida quarterback DJ Lagway is throwing three times a week and is “on schedule,” coach Billy Napier said, as the Gators sophomore recovers from an injury that prevented him from passing during spring practices. Speaking at the SEC Spring Meetings, Napier said Lagway threw Tuesday on UF’s campus and is making 210 passes a week, not counting his warm-up — or the normal workload for a Gators quarterback. “We’re doing exactly what we would do this time of year that we’ve done in the past,” Napier said. “So he’s on schedule.” Lagway did not throw during the spring practices and...

SUNRISE — Hurricanes Rod Brind’Amour infamously said that Carolina “didn’t lose four games,” when the Hurricanes lost four consecutive one-goal games and lost the conference final to the Florid Panthers in 2023. This time, he is definitely correct that the Hurricanes did not get swept. After going down 3-0 in the series to the Panthers, Carolina notched its first victory with a 3-0 win over a short-handed Florida at Amerant Bank Arena Monday night. The victory snaps a 15-game conference final losing streak for the franchise. The Hurricanes played their best game of the series, and they came...

GAINESVILLE — Florida freshman slugger Taylor Shumaker ended her weekend slump in record-setting fashion but not before shortstop Rylee Holtorf showed why the Gators will be a tough out during the Women’s College World Series. A surprising 2-run homer from Holtorf in the lineup’s No. 9 spot broke open a 1-0 game with Georgia in the fifth inning and set the stage for Shumaker’s 2-run blast two batters later to carry UF to a 5-2 win Sunday and back to the College World Series for the 13th time under Tim Walton — and third appearance since 2022. “That’s why I made the decision to come to...
