AND S-U MEN’S SOCCER BEGINS THE QUEST TO DEFEND ITS NATIONAL TITLE.SPORTS IS NEXT!

WHAT A WEEK IN SYRACUSE SPORTS AS THE REIGNING MEN’S SOCCER NATIONAL CHAMPIONS HEAD TO PLAYOFFS TO DEFEND THEIR TITLE AND THE THRILLER COMEBACK ON THE COURT LAST NIGHT.
JONAH WEINTRAUB WITH MORE ON SYRACUSE’S WIN.

BEFORE 2021, SYRACUSE MEN’S BASKETBALL HAD WON 54 STRAIGHT GAMES AGAINST COLGATE. BUT THE RAIDERS ENTERED YESTERDAY’S CONTEST HAVING TAKEN THE PAST 2 MATCHUPS. AND WITH A 24 POINT LEAD EARLY IN THE 2ND HALF, IT LOOKED LIKE THE ‘GATE WAS CRUISING TO ITS 3RD CONSECUTIVE WIN OVER SU

BUT THAT’S WHEN THE ORANGE FINALLY WOKE UP. STAR SOPHMORE JUDAH MINTZ PICKS THE POCKET OF A RAIDER AND RACES TO THE RIM. DEFICIT DOWN TO 20.
THEN FORWARD CHRIS BELL GETS IN ON THE FUN. THE SOPHOMORE HAD 10 POINTS TO PACE THE ‘CUSE IN THE FIRST HALF AND KEPT IT GOING WITH THIS TRIFECTA.
HE DIDN’T STOP THERE THOUGH. BELL, FROM THE SAME SPOT — SAME RESULT. 15 POINT AFFAIR.
BELL LEFT OPEN IN THE FAR CORNER THIS TIME — MAKES THE RAIDERS PAY ONCE AGAIN. LEAD IS JUST 10 FOR THE ‘GATE
6 MINUTES TO GO, JUDAH MINTZ GETS THE HOOP AND THE HARM ON THIS JUMPER TO BRING THE GAME WITHIN SINGLE DIGITS.
THE SYRACUSE PRESS GAVE COLGATE FITS ALL NIGHT. MINTZ INTERCEPTS A PASS, SLASHES TO THE TIN, AND CONNECTS ON A FLOATER. CUTS THE LEAD TO 5 AND THE RAIDERS NEED A TIMEOUT.
UNDER 2 MINTUES TO GO, SU DOWN 3 WITH THE BALL. CHRIS BELL GETS THE INBOUND PASS, STEPS INTO A SHOT FROM NBA RANGE, AND BURRIES IT. TIE GAME.
THE ORANGE NAILED 2 FREE THROWS TO TAKE THE LEAD AND MALIK BROWN — BRING IT HOME BIG FELLA!. THE FOWARD PUTS AN EXCLAMATION MARK ON THE COMEBACK AND SYRACUSE TAKES DOWN COLGATE 79-75

IT MAY NOT HAVE BEEN PRETTY, BUT THE ORANGE MOVE TO 3-0 BEHIND A CAREER HIGH 25-POINTS FROM CHRIS BELL AND 23 FROM JUDAH MINTZ. SU’S NEXT GAME IS ON MONDAY WHEN IT PLAYS 7TH RANKED TENNESSEE IN THE MAUI INVITATIONAL.
BUT BEFORE THEN, SYRACUSE MEN’S SOCCER KICKS OFF POSTSEASON PLAY TOMORROW. OUR MIKE OSTROWSKI HAS MORE.
THANKS JONAH. 2022 WAS A MAGICAL SEASON FOR SYRACUSE MEN’S SOCCER, WITH IAN MCINTYRE’S LADS TAKING HOME COLLEGE SOCCER’S TREBLE: THE A-C-C REGULAR SEASON TITLE, A-C-C POSTSEASON CHAMPIONSHIP, AND THEIR FIRST NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP. THIS FALL, IT HASN’T EXACTLY BEEN SMOOTH SAILING FOR S-U; WITH A 2-1-5 CONFERENCE RECORD AND A BIG DROPOFF IN TEAM SCORING. BUT THE ORANGE STILL HAVE A CHANCE TO DEFEND THEIR CROWN AS AN AT-LARGE BID IN THE N-C-DOUBLE-A TOURNAMENT. COACH MAC DESCRIBED THE FEELING OF HIS TEAM GETTING ANOTHER CHANCE TO PLAY ON.

THE ORANGE HOST BOSTON UNIVERSITY TOMORROW NIGHT AT 6 AT THE S-U SOCCER STADIUM. THE TERRIERS WON THEIR FIRST PATRIOT LEAGUE TITLE THIS SEASON WITH A 12-3-4 RECORD. THE FIRST 250 SYRACUSE STUDENTS GET IN FOR FREE, SO BRING YOUR I.D. AND CHEER ON THE ORANGE IN THEIR FINAL HOME GAME OF 2023. FOR MORNINGS ON THE HILL, I’M MIKE OSTROWSKI.
THANKS MIKE
COMING BACK TO THE COURT FOR THE SECOND UNDEFEATED TEAM ON SYRACUSE CAMPUS, IS NONE OTHER THAN WOMENS BASKEBALL.
A BIG REASON WHY IS NEW FACES AND ONE THAT IS CONTINUING TO MAKE HISTORY.
DYAISHA FAIR IS NOT ONLY ONE OF THE BEST PLAYERS IN THE ACC BUT IN THE COUNTRY.
FAIR IS CURRENTLY SECOND BEHIND CAITLIN CLARK IN ACTIVE SCORERS IN COLLEGE BASKETBALL AND HAS HER SIGHTS SET ON CAPTURING 3,000 POINTS THIS SEASON.
A FEAT THAT HAS ONLY EVER HAPPEN THIRTEEN TIMES BEFORE.
FAIR HAS SOME SCORING HELP AROUND HER WITH AN UPCOMING TALENT.
THE FIRST YEAR FROM AUSTRAILIA SOPHIE BURROWS HAS A STUNNING SHOT THAT FANS GET TO ENJOY FOR YEARS TO COME.
OFF THE COURT PEOPLE WILL FALL IN LOVE WITH BURROWS AS A PERSON WHO IS NOT AFRAID TO LAUGH.EVEN AT HERSELF

WHILE SHE MAY NOT HAVE RHYTHM ON THE DANCE FLOOR SHE ABSOUTELY HAS IT ON THE COURT.
YOU CAN SEE IT IN PERSON TONIGHT AT THE J-M-A DOME WHERE THE TEAM WILL TAKE ON COPPIN STATE.
TIP OFF AT 7PM.
NOW TO FOOTBALL WHERE OUR VERY OWN GRIFFIN DELLA PENNA WAS AT THE YANKEE STADIUM CAPTURING SOME BREATH TAKING PHOTOS OF THE WIN

BASKETBALL WAS BUSY INSIDE THE J-M-A DOME, WHILE THE FOOTBALL PROGRAM HIT THE ROAD. BUT FOR A HOME GAME.
SATURDAY COMEMMORATED THE 100TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE FIRST COLLEGE FOOTBALL GAME PLAYED AT YANKEE STADIUM BETWEEN , SYRACUSE AND PITT.
THE 79TH ALL-TIME MEETING BETWEEN THE TWO PROGRAMS LIVED UP TO THE RIVALRY. RIDING A FIVE-GAME LOSING SKID, HEAD COACH DINO BABERS DECIDED TO ROLL THE DICE IMPLENTING AN UNORTHODOX OFFENSIVE SCHEME WITH QB GARRETT SHRADER STLL NOT 100 PERCENT DUE TO HIS SHOULDER INJURY. THAT RESULTED IN A TRIO OF PLAYERS GETTING SNAPS UNDER CENTER, INCLUDING SHRADER, TE DAN VILLARI, AND RB LEQUINT ALLEN.
THE ORANGE RUSHED FOR 382 YARDS ON THE GROUND AND THREW FOR JUST 17 ALL GAME LONG. PRETTY REMINISCENT OF THAT SU OFFENSE FROM A CENTURY AGO. THE GAMBLE PAID OFF FOR SYRACUSE, CRUISING TO A 28-13 VICTORY FOR THEIR FIRST CONFERENCE WIN OF THE SEASON. VILLARI WAS AWARDED A-C-C RUNNING BACK OF THE WEEK FOR HIS PERFORMANCE, HONESTLY FITTING FOR THE WILD GAME.
NOW SITTING WITH A 5-5 RECORD, CUSE NEEDS JUST ONE WIN IN THE FINAL TWO WEEKS OF THE CAMPAIGN TO BECOME BOWL ELIGIBLE. THEY’LL PLAY DOWN IN ATLANTA AGAINST GEORGIA TECH ON SATURDAY BEFORE WRAPPING UP THE REGULAR SEASON AT HOME VERSUS WAKE FOREST ON THE 25TH.
STILL TO COME HERE ON MORNINGS ON THE HILL HOLLYWOODS HOTTEST COUPLE IS CATCHING FEELINGS AND FLIGHTS
AND WOMEN ARE RULING THIS YEARS GRAMMY NOMINATIONS.
THESE STORIES AND MORE COMING UP.

WELCOME BACK TO MORNINGS ON THE HILL.
IT WAS A WEEKEND WHERE TRAVIS KELCE WAS NOT ONLY CATCHING FLIGHTS BUT FEELINGS AS WELL.
HE HAD A BREAK FROM FROM FOOTBALL AND HOPPED ON A PLANE TO BUENOS AIRES TO SHOW HIS SUPPORT FOR HIS GIRLFRIEND, TAYLOR SWIFT. KELCE WAS SEEN WATCHING THE CONCERT IN A VIP TENT WITH SCOTT SWIFT., TAYLOR’SDAD. I WONDER HOW THAT WENT. IT SEEMED TO BE A NIGHT FULL OF SURPRISES AS TAYLOR SWIFT DROPPED A LITTLE HINT ABOUT HER ROMANCE WITH TRAVIS KELCE BY CHANGING THE LYRICS TO HER HIT SONG “KARMA.” SHE SANG, “KARMA IS THE GUY ON THE CHIEFS, COMING STRAIGHT HOME TO ME,” CHANGING THE WORD ORIGINALLY WRITTEN AS “SCREEN” TO “CHIEFS.”

MARVEL STUDIOS HAD A BIG SETBACK OVER THE WEEKEND AS THEIR LATEST FILM, “THE MARVELS,” TOOK A HIT AT THE BOX OFFICE. DESPITE SECURING THE TOP POSITION IN ITS OPENING WEEKEND, THE FILM ONLY MANAGED TO GROSS 47 MILLION DOLLARS IN DOMESTIC SALES, AS REPORTED BY STUDIO ESTIMATES ON SUNDAY. THIS PERFORMANCE OFFICIALLY MAKES IT THE LOWEST-PERFORMING MARVEL MOVIE TO DATE, SURPASSING THE 2008 FILM “THE INCREDIBLE HULK.” IT CAN’T BE THAT BAD RIGHT? GO SEE IT FOR YOURSELF BEFORE YOU ALL DECIDE TO COUNT IT OUT

OKAY SO WE MIGHT BE FASHIONABLY LATE TO THE PARTY BUT IT’S FINE! THE GRAMMY NOMINATIONS HAVE FINALLY GRACED US WITH THEIR PRESNCE, AND, SO HAS OUR EMILY COFFEY WHO JOINS US LIVE TO TELL US MORE

THE 20-24 GRAMMY NOMINATIONS ARE IN.

SZA IS LEADING THE PACK WITH NINE NOMINATIONS.
FOLLOWING CLOSE BEHIND WITH SEVEN NOMINATIONS EACH WE’VE GOT VICTORIA MONET, PHOEBE BRIDGERS AND MIXING ENGINEER SERBAN GEE-EN.
WHEN IT COMES TO RECORD OF THE YEAR THE GIRL’S ARE ON FIRE.
NEARLY SWEEPING THE CATEGORY WITH THE ONLY MALE NOMINATION BEING JON BATISTE.
BUT THE TREND DOESN’T STOP THERE.
THE MOVIE THAT HAD EVERY GIRL RUSHING BACK TO THE THEATERS THIS SUMMER. THE BARBIE MOVIE.
HAS 12 NOMINATIONS FOR THE MUSIC OF THE FILM AND 11 FOR THE SOUNDTRACK ALBUM.
AND WOULD IT REALLY BE THE GRAMMYS IF TAYLOR SWIFT DOESN’T BREAK A RECORD?
THIS YEAR TAYLOR SWIFT HAS BECOME THE FIRST ARTIST TO BE NOMINATED FOR SONG OF THE YEAR SEVEN TIMES.
SHE ALSO HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BECOME THE ALL-TIME LEADER FOR ALBUM OF THE YEAR.
BREAKING HER TIE WITH FRANK SINATRA, STEVIE WONDER AND PAUL SIMON.
