As we approach the midway point of the 2023 NFL season, the contenders and pretenders have become much more clear. In the American Football Conference, the Miami Dolphins are a force to be reckoned with, earning the nickname “greatest show on turf” because of their dynamic, motion-driven offense.
After a long and eventful offseason, the NBA season is finally upon us! All 30 teams are starting off with a blank record, and we, as fans, have (mostly) grand delusions that “this will finally be our year!”. That being said, I wanted to delve into one key question that every team will have to answer in order for them to reach the promised land.

In light of Max Verstappen claiming his third consecutive World Driver’s Championship (WDC) in last weekend’s race at the Qatar Grand Prix, join us for a recap of the 2023 season. Though the Charging Bulls’ dominance may be the headline story, this year has brought us mid-season driver swaps, epidemic dehydration and even lizards on the race track.
Hopkins Athletics was awarded the 2022-23 Learfield Directors' Cup for the first time in school history after scoring in 19 total sports, of which 14 teams boasted top-10 finishes.

When the Milwaukee Bucks were eliminated by the Miami Heat in last year’s playoffs, they became just the sixth No. 1 seed to be eliminated by an 8-seed in NBA playoff history.
Before 2023, the majority of soccer fans probably had not heard of the Saudi Pro League (RSL). In fact, even the most avid fans would not have been able to predict the astronomical growth that the RSL has experienced this year. It started, like a lot of events in modern football, with Cristiano Ronaldo.
Women’s soccer improved to 4-1-1 on Saturday with a win over Muhlenberg College, the Blue Jays’ Centennial Conference foe. Hopkins entered this game as the fourth-ranked team in the country, coming off a 2-2 draw against The College of New Jersey (TCNJ), while the Muhlenberg Mules came into the matchup unranked with a 2-2-1 record, having just won a nail-biter 1-0 over Fairleigh Dickinson University Florham.
On June 22, news broke that the Golden State Warriors had traded their supposed point guard of the future, Jordan Poole, to the Washington Wizards for the aging veteran, Chris Paul.
Over the past couple months, I’ve tried to become more process-oriented, as opposed to results-oriented. I contend that results are a symptom of a successful process and should be regarded as less important.
The Baltimore Ravens had a convincing win over the Houston Texans in Week 1 of the NFL season. A slow, closely fought first half gave way to a second half that was all Ravens. Yet the victory was bittersweet, as the Ravens now find themselves battling an array of injuries threatening their young season. Here's a breakdown of Week 1 and what the season ahead holds.
Men’s football improved to 2-0 on Saturday after a nail-biting win against the Christopher Newport University (CNU) Captains.
Football season is upon us! For all you diehard NFL followers, we survived the dog days of acting like anyone can win the World Series (it’s the Braves — it’s always been the Braves), lying to ourselves that we didn’t already know Anthony Edwards was good (like we needed to see him score 35 against Lithuania to know) and engaging obnoxious Premier League fans by sympathizing with their poor allocation of resources (of course they shouldn’t have signed Kai Havertz for 60 million!).
Astonishingly, the Baltimore Orioles have the best record in the American League this year. In baseball’s hardest division, competing with powerhouse organizations such as the Yankees and Red Sox, the low-budget, small-market Orioles have found tremendous success and appear poised for a deep playoff run. Here’s how the Orioles have found themselves in this position:
Last weekend commenced what should be a very exciting two months of NBA playoffs. From sunup to sundown on Saturday and Sunday, the league’s 16 best teams all started a grueling seven-game series against each other, with hopes of hoisting the Larry O’Brien Trophy in June. Here are some of the biggest takeaways from week one of the NBA playoffs:
In general, regular season training is to prepare for the biggest competition of the year, and for Hopkins swimming, this is the 2023 Division III Swimming and Diving Championships in Greensboro, N.C. Having been seeded to be 16th or 17th on the women’s side and 10th on the men’s side, there were slim chances of the teams finishing even in the top five. Coupled with other hurdles thrown their way, this made a strong showing at the meet much harder but the Jays pulled through with stunning performances.
After a two-hour delay caused by a thunderstorm, the men’s lacrosse Homecoming game versus the Ohio State University Buckeyes got off to a rocky start. With rain still drizzling in the field, the first face-off resulted in a moving pile of bodies, ending with an Ohio State player pulling a Blue Jay down to the turf. No foul was called.
This past week, Odell Beckham Jr. (OBJ), superstar wide receiver and former rival of the Baltimore Ravens, has found his way to a one-year deal in Charm City.
