The South Carolina basketball team had a great year in Darrin Horn’s first year.

These next two weeks makes it fun to be a sports fan.
There is nothing but wall-to-wall college basketball each Thursday to Sunday.
And judging by Thursday’s results, it should be one good NCAA tournament.

Listening to some of the interviews with Sprint Cup drivers this weekend, you think they were in Darlington and not Atlanta.
Drivers were talking about tries losing grip early into a run, much like they do when they come to the Lady in Black every May. That should definitely make for an interesting race.

Today officially kicks of Championship Week in men’s college basketball.

I admit I had my doubts about Raymond Felton in the NBA. Sure, the Latta native put up phenomenal numbers in leading the Vikings to two state titles.
Felton was a great college player at North Carolina and was a member of the 2005 national title team.

With the Shelby 427 running today in Las Vegas, I’m asking who do you like?

It’s not too bad to be Albert Haynesworth these days.

There are certain records in sports that will likely never be broken such as Cal Ripken’s consecutive games played streak, Joe DiMaggio’s 56-game hitting streak and UCLA winning seven straight men’s college basketball titles.

HBO Sports always has produced some great shows documentaries through the years — “From When It Was a Game” to “Hard Knocks”.
So when I heard HBO was doing one on the Duke-North Carolina basketball rivalry, I was definitely curious to see how it would turn it out.

With the official start of racing this weekend, the Morning News weekly Auto Racing page will return in Thursday’s paper.

Tony Stewart is phenomenal racing talent and a smart man. So, Stewart’s move from Joe Gibbs Racing to become a driver-owner at Haas-CNC Racing is something that wasn’t made without a lot of thought.

It’s good to be Jordan Lyles these days.
What can you say about the Hartsville standout. He gets to graduate from high school and also get selected in the Major League Baseball draft by the Houston Astros on the same day.

The first race on Darlington’s new surface wasn’t definitely one to remember.
Sure there were a lot of lead of lead changes, 35 among 15 drivers, but it lacked the drama and excitement the previous two weeks at Talladega and Richmond were.

I have always wondered what it would be like to take a lap Darlington Raceway with a NASCAR driver and I was able to do that Saturday.
Former driver Brett Bodine, who drives the pace car for every Cup race, took me and a few other media members around the Lady in Black in a 2008 Dodge Challenger before Saturday’s race.

If last night’s Nationwide race was any indication, then today’s Dodge Challenger 500 should be a wild ride.
