A fight among students at Loudoun County, Virginia’s, Lunsford Middle School led administrators to the alarming discovery of elaborate fight clubs, some involving betting and tournament-style brackets, according to the school’s principal.In a message to parents, Lunsford Principal Carrie Simms said many parents were aware of their child’s participation in the fight clubs and hosted bouts in their garages or basements.The fights spilled over to the hallways and bathrooms of Lunsford, Simms said, leading administrators to discover social media activity that revealed more information about the fight clubs.“We cannot tell you how to parent, but when your children create TikToks and Instagram pages using Lunsford’s name and then attempt to hold these fights in our hallways and bathrooms, we will take action,” Simms said in her message.The fighting prompted a “reset” last Friday morning.

The 27-year-old right-hander allowed two runs on three hits against the White Sox.“He was incredible,” Tigers manager A.J. Hinch said. “He had a good fastball, a good slider and he mixed in some changeups late. He got into a lot of chase counts and attacked guys.”Faedo, who started the season in Triple-A, won for the second time in 16 career starts.“This felt really good,” he said. “That’s the best slider I’ve had since I’ve been back up here and (Eric) Haase did a great job of calling pitches.”Lucas Giolito (3-4) matched a career-high with seven walks and was tagged for four runs in 3 2/3 innings. He allowed six hits, including a home run, and struck out four.

ATLANTA (AP) — Austin Riley hit a pair of monstrous homers and pinch-hitter Travis d’Arnaud came through with a tiebreaking, two-run single in the eighth inning that carried the Atlanta Braves to an 8-5 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies on Thursday night. D’Arnaud, sent up for slumping Michael Harris II with the bases loaded, lined a one-out single to left field off Gregory Soto (1-4). Matt Olson added a sacrifice fly.In the first meeting between the NL East rivals since the Phillies’ upset victory in the 2022 divisional round, both teams displayed plenty of power to open a four-game series.Bryce Harper hit a mammoth homer for the Phillies, and Alec Bohm connected on a two-run shot. Marcell Ozuna went deep for the Braves, who became the first team in nearly four years to hit three homers off Aaron Nola.There was no doubt about either of Riley’s long balls — both carried to nearly the same spot way up in the left-field seats.

WASHINGTON DC- La Corte Suprema de Estados Unidos se posicionó este jueves a favor de un matrimonio que había denunciado a la Agencia de Protección Ambiental (EPA, pro sus siglas en inglés), y coincidió con esa pareja en que el organismo no tiene autoridad para intervenir en su terreno.Una decisión contra la que se expresó tajantemente el presidente de EEUU Joe Biden, quien en un comunicado consideró que el fallo “pone en riesgo de contaminación y destrucción los humedales del país” y también pone en peligro las fuentes de agua limpia de las que se nutren millones de estadounidenses.Además, recalcó que la sentencia “cambia drásticamente” el marco legal que ha protegido el agua del país durante décadas y “desafía a la ciencia, que ha demostrado el papel crucial de los humedales en salvaguardar los ríos y los lagos de los contaminantes que dañan” la salud de los ciudadanos.La batalla legal de los Sackett, de Idaho, se remonta a hace más de una décad...Denver weather: Storm chances through Memorial Day weekend
