Team Rockey trains shooters to protect themselves

Sports roundup

The Trojans girls volleyball team was at the Las Vegas Invitational, a high-quality tournament that sees some of the top volleyball teams in Nevada and California perform. Pahrump won one and lost five matches. Two of those teams ended up being in the top three at the tournament, Ramona and Central. Ramona won the tournament.

I was walking past Petco Park today and saw hordes of Cubbies fans approaching for the afternoon game with the Padres, (the Cubs won 6-3, sweeping the series) and I started thinking about the Cubs’ chances of winning the pennant and overcoming the dreaded Billy Goat Curse.

Commentary: Ed, he’s just a personable guy
