Colorado Buffaloes quarterback Julian Lewis quieted some noise during last weekend's spring game with a fairly conservative performance that included one highlight touchdown pass to new target Danny Scudero.Lewis is battling Utah transfer Isaac Wilson for the starting job, but remains the favorite to open up the 2026 season as Colorado's starter. Earlier this spring, ESPN ranked Lewis as the No. 62 Power Four starting quarterback, just six from the bottom among the 68 teams.CBS Sports gives Lewis a slightly more favorable ranking, placing him in the top-15 at No. 49, good for No. 11 in the Big 12 Conference. Here's what Brad Crawford had to say about the Buffaloes' redshirt freshman signal caller.Speaking of unlocking star potential, that is Brennan Marion's role this spring at Colorado as he works with Lewis. The former sought-after recruit was able to redshirt last season after playing in four games, finishing with 589 yards passing and four touchdowns (including three starts in November). Deion Sanders is trying to build around his quarterback after landing a top-25 transfer class once again.As Crawford notes, everything for Colorado's 2026 hopes, especially offensively, rests on how Lewis and new playcaller Brennan Marion come together. It is a complicated offense to master, and Lewis' ability to grasp the Go-Go will determine how good the Buffs can be.Follow Charlie StrellaonX,Threads, andInstagram.Contact/Follow us@BuffaloesWireon X (formerly Twitter), and like our page onFacebookfor ongoing coverage of Colorado news, notes and opinions.This article originally appeared on Buffaloes Wire: Julian Lewis Power 4 quarterback ranking per CBS Sports

FIFA president Gianni Infantino said Wednesday that Iran would "for sure" be at the World Cup this summer, despite the ongoing war with the United States.

It's only April, but Los Angeles Dodgers reliever Alex Vesia may have already earned the most emotional save of the season. The moment took place at the end of Tuesday's 2-1 win.

The defending champion Las Vegas Aces completed the process Wednesday of bringing back their core group by re-signing four-time MVP A'ja Wilson.Terms were not released, per club policy, but ESPN reported it was a three-year, $5 million supermax contract that is the most lucrative in WNBA history.Aja is truly one of one, who has led this franchise to where it is today, Aces president and general manager Nikki Fargas said in a statement. Not only has she catapulted into the history books and surpassed almost every record in existence, but she does so with the utmost confidence, authenticity and grace. We look forward to continuing to see her thrive in an Aces uniform.In addition to Wilson last season named WNBA MVP and The Associated Press Female Athlete of the Year the Aces have re-signed stars Jackie Young, Chelsea Gray and Jewell Loyd, among other key contributors to their third title in four seasons.Also Wednesday, the Aces signed guard Chennedy Carter to a training camp contract. She last played in the WNBA in 2024 with Chicago and averaged 17.4 points and 3.4 assists. She also had a high-profile takedown of Caitlin Clark and has been dogged by issues with teammates over her career.A veteran team led by Wilson, whose leadership last season took the Aces from potentially not making the playoffs to a 16-game winning streak and eventual championship, likely wouldn't tolerate unneeded distractions.Wilson is building a case as the WNBA's best-ever player, and coach Becky Hammon has said her superstar forward is alone on Mount Everest.No player can match Wilson's four MVP awards. She also took home the trophy in 2020, 2022 and 2024 and was the unanimous choice in 2024.Wilson also was named the league co-Defensive Player of the Year last season, sharing the honor with Minnesotas Alanna Smith. It was Wilson's third such award in four years.She led the WNBA last season in scoring with 23.4 points per game and in blocked shots with a 2.3 average.It was the second year in a row Wilson averaged at least 20 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists, 2 blocks and a steal. She is the only WNBA player to do that even once while playing at least 15 games.___AP WNBA: https://apnews.com/hub/wnba-basketball

Ignacio "Nacho" Lago has made history as the first active professional footballer in Argentina to publicly come out as gay.The 23-year-old forward plays for Club Atletico Colon in Argentina's second division, and a clip from an interview last season has recently gone viral across social media.The emotional footage, originally filmed for the club's media show 'Sangre y Luto', shows Lago reacting to a surprise video message from his partner Gonzalo.Though Lago hasn't formally described the moment as a "coming out", the clip has sparked an enormous wave of support both in Argentina and internationally.In the touching clip, Gonzalo called Lago an "excellent person and an excellent professional" while thanking him for "defending the colours of my city".Lago was clearly moved by the surprise message, and his response captured hearts everywhere."It's an irrational love, we experience it this way, just like with football," he said."We're obsessed, and we try to express what we feel."The couple's relationship had apparently been known to Colon's fanbase for some time before the clip gained wider attention.It's a beautifully honest moment that shows just how much the pair mean to each other.South American football has long been associated with a deep-rooted culture of machismo and homophobia, making Lago's openness a genuine breakthrough for the sport in Argentina.The only other notable instance of a player coming out was regional league goalkeeper Nicols Fernndez back in 2020, but Lago is considered the first at the top-tier professional level.The response has been overwhelmingly positive, with supporters, fans and even politicians praising his bravery and the importance of representation.Argentina legalised same-sex marriage in 2010, yet visibility in elite men's football has lagged behind until now.[DEPORTES] "La hizo bien": "Nacho" Lago, figura de Coln de Santa Fe, recibi una "sorpresa" de su novio en medio de una entrevista, lo present y se emocion. @AiredeSantaFe https://t.co/fxpLA6JsG5 pic.twitter.com/C0sQl8s78N ElCanciller.com (@elcancillercom) April 6, 2026 Lago came through the youth academy at Club Almirante Brown before making his professional debut on 10 February 2018 remarkably, at just 15 years old.His talent earned him a move to top-flight side Talleres de Crdoba in September 2020, though he later headed to Mexico's Tlaxcala FC on loan in search of more game time, where he bagged five goals in 16 appearances.After successful loan stints at San Martn de San Juan and Atltico de Rafaela, he joined Coln and quickly became a key player, signing permanently last season.The dynamic winger is currently recovering from injury as his side sit top of the Primera Nacional after eight games, chasing promotion to the top flight.Our Standards: The GB News Editorial Charter
