* Very cool that the Tampa Bay Lightning had its second annual dad’s trip–last weekend for Bolts games in Pittsburgh and Raleigh. You don’t typically see such father-and-son family affairs at the professional level. Only thing more surprising is that Joe Maddon didn’t think of it first.
* I don’t know these folks, but they deserve a major shout-out: Judith Baizan and Paul Wisniewski. They were the lone finishers in their age group in the Publix Gasparilla Distance Classic 15K run. And that age group: 90-98.
* Baylor University is taking a lot of heat over not reporting a single instance of sexual assault in a four-year (2008-11) span. It later had more than its share from 2012-14. Critics said the school looked the other way until federal pressure was brought to bear. Put it this way: If you have big-time football and basketball programs, you just might have assault scenarios on your campus.
