Wendie Renard questionable ahead of France’s important Women’s World Cup match against Brazil

Published Sun, 23 Feb 2025 12:00:00 GMT

AUCKLAND, New Zealand (AP) — France star Wendie Renard was injured in her first appearance of this Women’s World Cup and her status is now in question for an important match against Brazil. Renard was injured during France’s underwhelming 0-0 draw against Jamaica, and although she played the entire 90 minutes in the opener, she was believed to be hurt in second-half stoppage time in a tackle that earned Khadija Shaw a second yellow card of the game. The France captain trained with her squad ahead of Saturday’s match in Brisbane, but if she can’t play, Les Bleues could be in big trouble in Group F. “Our hope is that everything goes well because we need her,” France coach Herve Renard said Friday night. “We are not sure tonight 100%. Our trainings are quite intense and we will have to see how things happen once we face the match.”Brazil romped to a 4-0 win over Panama in its opener behind a hat trick from Ary Borges and are holding strong as the group leaders. ...

Big 12 not quite the same, but it feels like home to a 98-year-old Colorado fan

Published Sun, 23 Feb 2025 12:00:00 GMT

Peggy Coppom hasn’t quite seen it all with the Colorado Buffaloes, but she’s seen much more than most, so believe her when she says Thursday was a good day to be a fan.The 98-year-old has been attending football games since her family moved from the high plains of eastern Colorado to Boulder in 1939 to escape the Dust Bowl, and she’s missed only a couple home games since buying season tickets in 1966.The excitement in her voice was obvious during a phone call minutes after university regents approved the school’s return to the Big 12 in 2024.“I’m so happy to get back to the Big 12 — or the Big 15 or whatever it ends up being,” she said, laughing. “It seems like that’s where we belong. We don’t belong with the West Coast people.”Of course, the Big 12 isn’t the same league it was when the Buffs left for the Pac-12 in 2012.
