Lucy Johnson of Cheverus shoots in the second half against Scarborough on Sept. 12. She is the second straight Stags player to win the Miss Maine Field Hockey award after her sister, Lily, took it last year. Derek Davis/Staff Photographer AUGUSTA – After setting the career goals record, winning 71 of 72 games and earning three state championships, there was one more accolade for Lucy Johnson to win. She took care of that Sunday afternoon. The Cheverus senior was named the 26th winner of the Miss Maine Field Hockey award, becoming the second straight Stags player and member of the Johnson family to win it after sister Lily took it last year. “I was very nervous, but it’s great, and I’m very proud of the accomplishments myself and I’m glad that my sister and I get to share this bond, for sure,” Johnson said. “It shows that I have a lot of heart and dedication to the game. ... I’ve been playing since I was five, and I just can’t imagine my life without it.” Lucy Johnson after she was awarded Miss Maine Field Hockey on Sunday at the Augusta Civic Center. Drew Bonifant/Portland Press Herald It’s the second time two sisters have won the award, with the first being Greely’s Amanda and Julia Chase in 2002 and 2004, respectively. Johnson beat out Biddeford’s Ayla Lagasse for the award, and earned an honor many likely felt was inevitable since her sophomore season when she scored 49 goals, the second most goals tallied in a season. With 34 this fall, Johnson finished with 152 goals, 41 higher than the record she broke and 14 clear of Winthrop’s Madeline Wagner in second place. “It’s good ... to have something to reach for to make you a better player. I hope some girl out there right now sees that number, 152, and smashes it, and that’s how Lucy will know she really succeeded,” Cheverus coach Andrea Musante said. “When you see someone like Lucy and what she’s done, that’ll only help grow the game.” Johnson, who will play next alongside Lily at Boston University, said that legacy point has been significant to her as she’s wrapped up her high school field hockey career. “I definitely think so,” she said. “I try to set really good examples for many people in the future, and for people coming into Cheverus. I know a few of the younger girls, they’ve told me they look up to me and it really means a lot to me. I try to set that example for them, hopefully they see it through.” While much has been said about Johnson’s speed, stick handling, ball control and lethal shot, Musante said her competitiveness stood out most, which was exemplified in her playing through frequent knee pain this season and her ability to raise her game when the Stags needed it. “She would fight, she would show up and produce the same results no matter what the situation was,” she said. “She never laid down, it doesn’t matter if she was double- or tripled-team. She always found a way.” Musante pointed to the 2023 Class A final, when Johnson was marked heavily by Skowhegan defenders but still scored the winning goal with 58 seconds left in a 2-1 victory. Lucy Johnson of Cheverus celebrates after scoring her first of two goals against Biddeford on Nov. 6. She will play for Boston University next year. Derek Davis/Staff Photographer “It was like, ‘She showed up. She did it again,’ ” Musante said. “When she hits the field and the whistle blows, she has an incredible fire and passion.” It all culminated in the award Sunday, which Johnson said is more meaningful considering it follows Lily’s victory a year ago. In her acceptance speech, Johnson addressed her sister who was away at school, saying “no one has chemistry like us.” “It’s definitely very special,” she said. “I always think of her every day, I miss playing with her and I’m really excited to play with her next year so we can share this bond.” We invite you to add your comments.

Hatayspor will host Goztepe SK in the Turkish Super Lig on Sunday, with the hosts hoping to end a three-match winless streak and take a big step towards leaving the relegation zone. Meanwhile, the visitors will be looking to win two matches in a row after bouncing back from defeat with a 3-1 victory against Adana Demirspor last time out. © Imago Hatayspor struggled to stay in the top flight last season and have found themselves in a similar predicament this year, currently second from bottom with eight points from 14 matches. The Star of the South failed to win any of their opening 10 matches, and their sole victory came against Gaziantep in their 11th attempt, though they have since failed to record another win. Hatayspor headed into the game against Istanbul Basaksehir on a four-match unbeaten run across all competitions, but they were outclassed 3-0 and could not register more than one attempt on target in the game. Riza Calimbay 's side had a decent mini-run between late October and early December when they won three matches, but two of those victories were in the Turkish Cup, with the other league games in that run producing one defeat and two draws. Avoiding losing streaks will be vital to the top-flight survival of the Star of the South, and this will be what they will look to avoid when they take on a Goztepe side that has proven that they belong at this level. Hatayspor have dominated the recent installments of this fixture, winning the last two, but four losses in the seven times they have hosted this fixture highlights that they have found things difficult against the visitors in the past. © Imago Goztepe are enjoying their return to the top flight, with 24 points from 14 matches currently putting them in sixth place, two points behind fourth-placed Eyupspor who have played one extra game. Stanimir Stoilov 's side successfully bounced back from their loss to Basaksehir with the victory against the league's whipping boys last time out, despite playing over 14 minutes of the game with a man deficit following Ogun Bayrak 's 76th-minute sending off. The biggest issue for Goztepe in this campaign is the disparity between their home and away form – while they are unbeaten at home with six wins from seven games, the visitors have won just once on the road, while losing four of six away matches. Out of their total 20 goals conceded so far, Stoilov's men have conceded 14 on the road, while they have lost four of the last five away matches, though playing at a ground that they have found success more times than not could increase their probability of getting a positive result on Sunday. © Imago Hatayspor could remain without midfielder Massanga Matondo , who is hoping to recover in time from a foot injury to play some part in this clash. Carlos Strandberg , who is the team's top scorer in the Super Lig with three goals, will be looking to earn a place in the starting line-up. Goztepe will have to make do without midfielder Bayrak who was sent off after two yellow cards last time out and is consequently suspended for this clash. Kubilay Kanatsizkus is nursing an ankle injury that makes him doubtful, while Isaac Solet is ruled out of the season with an ACL injury. Chelsea loanee David Datro Fofana is also sidelined for Sunday's game with a thigh injury that is expected to keep him out until January. Hatayspor possible starting lineup: Kardesler; Sertel, Calvo, Kilama, Yilmaz; Diack, Saglam; Bamgboye, Pedro, Fernandes; Aboubakar Goztepe SK possible starting lineup: Lis; Bokele, Heliton, Altikardes; Silva, Hugo, Dennis, Miroshi; Tijanic; Juan, Romulo Goztepe have struggled on the road in this campaign, and this gives Hatayspor an opportunity to have a go at them at home, though we believe that the visitors still have enough quality to get something from the game, which is why we are predicting a stalemate.

Home | SATAWU says new leadership should address workers’ challenges The South African Transport and Allied Workers Union (SATAWU) says its incoming leadership should develop a programme that will address the challenges faced by workers in the transport, security and cleaning services sectors. The union is holding its 6th National Congress in Bloemfontein, Free State. The three-day conference will discuss issues like the non-payment of salaries of members who work for private companies, as well as the privatisation of state entities by the government. Delegates have also slammed the decision by the African National Congress (ANC) to unilaterally enter into a Government of National Unity (GNU). ANC Secretary General Fikile Mbalula says they have to explain to alliance partners who are still not persuaded, that the GNU was the best possible solution to the election outcome. “Our message to SATAWU is to clarify most of the misconceptions about the formation of the GNU and to outline the strategic perspective of the ANC. Because it will be incorrect to continually spread the message that GNU was of our making, it is a tactical...that came as a result of low performance of the ANC in the elections.” SATAWU General Secretary Jack Mazibuko says, “We are worried about the posture that the government is taking to invite the private sector into the entity on the basis that the entity is not performing if you look at finances of Transnet, they told that they’ve lost significant amount of money, they did not make a profit and we are worried about the fact that even the people that are invited to rescue state-owned companies we don’t believe they have necessary capacity to do so and we have been seeing policies like white papers which have been given out which are not giving a clear direction as to how workers jobs will be safeguarded.” SABC © 2024

Coldplay kick England out of Wembley: FA are left searching for new venue with British band playing sold out shows during September fixtures... with viral video showing huge toll of transforming arena into football pitch England discovered their 2026 World Cup qualifying opponents on Friday Three Lions will have to make arrangements for home fixture against Andorra LISTEN NOW: It's All Kicking Off! Mason Mount? Marcus Rashford? Joshua Zirkzee? Who should Manchester United sell to raise funds? By TUM BALOGUN Published: 23:04 GMT, 13 December 2024 | Updated: 23:26 GMT, 13 December 2024 e-mail View comments Thomas Tuchel 's England will have to make alternative arrangements for their World Cup qualifier against Andorra next September. The German's first opponents as Three Lions boss were revealed on Friday as the draw for the qualification stage of the 2026 World Cup was conducted in Zurich. Tuchel, who officially begins duties on January 1, will get his first taste of action during the March international break with games against Albania and Latvia. Those games will also see the former Chelsea manager lead his side out at Wembley, a privilege that is set to be denied for England's September international against Andorra because of clash with Coldplay . The British band were only due to play at the home of football for six nights in August but, due to unprecedented demand, they added four more dates in September, which fall on either side of England's fixture. Although the Viva La Vida group are not due to perform on September 6 when Tuchel's troops will be lining up against the European minnows, the extraordinary retrofit undertaken to turn a football stadium into the perfect space for a concert would make staging the game there impossible. As a result, Harry Kane and Co will be playing a little further away from home than first planned. Coldplay have scheduled a series of sold out shows at Wembley stadium in August and September The British ban will play at the home of football on 10 nights and they will transform the famous old ground to suit their performance @superconstructions #coldplay #concert #setup #installation #construction #civilengineering #constructiontips #constructionlife #building #timelapse #replacement #reconstruction #coldplay ♬ House - ruanoliivas Thomas Tuchel will begin duties as England manager on January 1, while his first match as boss will be against Albania in March The news is sure to delight many fans across the country who will now find it easier to watch their England heroes up close. The FA has made strides in recent years to stage Three Lions fixtures outside of London. The likes of Old Trafford, The Stadium of Light and St James' Park have all hosted home games in recent seasons. In addition to Albania, Latvia and Andorra, Tuchel's side were also drawn against Serbian in Group K. Following the draw, Tuchel admitted that he was aware of the mixed reaction to his appointment but he insisted he is ready prove his doubters wrong. ‘I read much less than you would expect,’ Tuchel said. ‘Maybe you can tell me how it was received. But no hard feelings for that. Of course, it will always be mixed. ‘So now I have to prove myself. And to the people who are maybe a bit concerned - to prove to them how much it means to me and that it's a dream job for me that I will give my everything, and I'm the man for the job.’ Serbia are the highest ranked of England’s opponents at number 32 on the FIFA list. England have only played them once, winning 1-0 through a Jude Bellingham goal in the opening game of last summer’s Euros. That apart England will not have reason to particularly fear Albania – who they have beaten four times from four games – or Latvia – who they have never played – and Andorra, against whom they have accumulated a 26-0 aggregate score over six matches.

Justin Trudeau taking the time to reflect following Freeland departureCUPERTINO — An iconic performing arts theater where Apple co-founder Steve Job unveiled the first Macintosh computer in 1984 is being reduced to rubble, five years after the college district that owns the space closed it down due to high renovation costs . Workers began the demolition of De Anza College’s Flint Center in early October, breaking apart the beige concrete walls that one housed a plethora of community events and exposing dozens of deteriorated railings and theater seats. Majority of the demolition is expected to be completed by March 2025, according to Paula Norsell, a spokesperson for the Foothill-De Anza College District. In 2019, the board of trustees voted to close the center, saying the district would need to pour in $50 million in renovations, seismic and accessibility upgrades to keep the space open. The district is planning to build a new multi-million Creative Arts Building in its place and also make room for an adjacent Student Services building. The projects will be funded by Measure G, which was approved by district voters in 2020 to provide $898 million to upgrade and repair facilities, classrooms and labs, and to acquire and construct facilities and equipment for De Anza and Foothill College. “We are incredibly grateful to the community for approving Measure G and are excited to put the bond dollars to work,” Norsell said. “Improving the college’s aging infrastructure and creating new state-of-the-art facilities that will meet the needs of the next generation of students and reduce our carbon footprint.” In the meantime, De Anza college has temporarily closed down several student walking and drop-off areas around the center until January 2025. The 2,400-seat Flint Center opened in 1971 and was a hotspot for local plays, symphony performances, religious services and college graduations. The center’s popular Celebrity Forum series brought foreign dignitaries into the Silicon Valley, along with famous athletes like 49ers quarterback Joe Montana, and movies stars including Star Trek actor George Takei. It was also where Jobs and other Apple executives unveiled the company’s latest phones, computers and other pioneering technologies. In 2015, the center was even the filming site of for a biopic about Jobs. But managing the five-story concrete building was no easy feat for the Foothill-De Anza District. A 2015 study by the district found the Flint was booked only 17 to 24 percent of the year, and hosted just six or seven annual events that drew crowds of more than 2,000 people.
