The Last Night’s Game Team


COLLEGE FOOTBALL

On Saturday, Oklahoma’s Kyler Murray was named the Heisman Trophy winner. While he may officially be the best college football player in the country, football might not even be his best sport. He’ll play for the Oakland Athletics (MLB – Major League Baseball) after the football season is over, saying sayonara to football. WHAT CAN’T HE DO?


OVERTIME

LeBron James noticed that every year he played the Memphis Grizzlies (NBA - National Basketball Association) their assistant equipment manager always wore his shoes. For years she was on team LeBron, so this year he gave her a pair of his game worn shoes for her longtime support. SLAM DUNK


SIDELINE STAT

Atlanta United claimed their first MLS (Major League Soccer) Cup in only their second season, shutting out the Portland Timbers. While United took home the championship, seven-year-old Malea Emma brought down the house when she crushed the national anthem in front of a record crowd. THE VOICE OF AN ANGEL


COACHES’ CORNER

Yesterday’s NFL (National Football League) games kept fans on the edge of their seats right until the very end. There were three major upsets that all happened in the last seconds of the game. The Miami Dolphins took out the New England Patriots on a trick play, Dallas Cowboys handed the Philadelphia Eagles a loss on a miraculous catch and the Pittsburgh Steelers were handed a loss by the Oakland Raiders when their kicker slipped in a field goal attempt.
