Five women who built careers across the fast-changing landscape of college athletics urged Baylor journalism students to chase opportunity, embrace discomfort and own their place in the sports world during a wide-ranging classroom panel this week. The speakers — Baylor staff members Josie Hutton, Katie Smith, Ciara Gresham, Haneen Rashwan, and Krista Pirtle — joined sportswriter and adjunct lecturer Jerry Hill to discuss their paths into athletics and the obstacles they overc

Baylor men’s basketball rallied from behind in the first half to earn its first win of the season over UTRGV at Foster Pavilion in Waco, Texas, 96-81.    Despite a slow start from the Bears, a 12-0 run at the end of the first half helped the green and gold close the gap and eventually take the lead for the rest of the game.    Leading BU in points was redshirt sophomore guard Cameron Carr, who garnered a career high in points with 28 and marked his second time achieving a d

Josh Ehambe’s story reads like a comeback film — the kind that begins in hardship and ends in hope, winding through the noise of broken homes, failed systems and improbable redemption. But for Ehambe, the script is real. Now serving as Dean of Students and Assistant Athletic Director at Live Oak Classical School in Waco, Texas, he’s proof that perseverance, faith and second chances can write the brightest chapters.

However, the past couple of years, professional wrestling such as World Wrestling Entertainment has become popular again, with people saying wrestling is cool once again.    With former wrestlers-turn-actors such as Dwayne Johnson, “The Rock”, and John Cena coming back and having feuds with current day wrestlers, it seems like viewership has gone up for the WWE. While everyone always

Arizona State took down the Baylor Bears, 27-24, Saturday night at McLane Stadium, with the Sun Devils sealing the deal with a field goal in the last two seconds of the game.                   ASU forced a total of four turnovers – including two fumbles, one interception and one fourt-down stop – that proved to be too much for the Bears to overcome. BU suffered its second loss of the season, while Arizona State holds a 3-1 record and starts undefeated in league play.         

Between juggling schoolwork, being a part of a sorority and pursuing a career in professional dance, Baylor University senior Harley Clark has her hands full as she completes her last year in Waco, Texas. Clark is a fourth-generation student at Baylor, following in her mother's and grandmother’s footsteps. However, Clark didn’t always want to attend Baylor; her original choice was to go to TCU before she fell in love with the campus after attending a mother-led tour.        

` There are seconds left on the clock. Graduate guard Sarah Andrews has the ball and goes for the long shot, but misses. The buzzer sounds, and Hailey Van Lith and the TCU Horned Frogs celebrate as confetti rains down while they hoist the Big 12 women’s basketball tournament championship trophy. I was there not as a fan, but as a volunteer for the 2025 Big 12 men’s and women’s basketball tournaments. While the Horned Frogs’ victory over the Bears still stings to this day, th
