Despite falling behind 28-17 with under five minutes to play, the Coyotes showed why they’ve been one of the top teams in the country. Two touchdowns within three minutes gave USD a 29-28 advantage with 12 seconds left and a last-ditch lateral player fell short for the Bison on the final play of the day. ADVERTISEMENT Aidan Bouman finished with 272 yards and two touchdowns on 18-for-30 passing on the day. Javion Phelps came up clutch late in the game with multiple game-saving catches, including the game-winning touchdown. He finished the day with 79 receiving yards and a touchdown. Travis Theis was USD’s leading rusher with 66 yards and two touchdowns. With that, here are three observations from the game... The question surrounding this season had always been how good was USD really? The Coyotes took care of business against most weaker opponents and competed with better opponents like SDSU and even Wisconsin. But there was still one thing missing, a truly signature victory. Saturday finally provided that victory. With NDSU ranked No. 1 in the country and seen as possibly the title favorite, this was the game for the Coyotes to prove to the rest of the FCS that they can be a formidable force in the postseason. Not only did they take home the victory, but they did it in a fashion that showed more grit than any other this season. In previous observations, I’ve commended USD for showing grit in tough situations. Games against Youngstown State and UND where they fell behind by multiple possessions early and came back to win. Also against SDSU even though that resulted in a loss. But this was the coup de grâce for the Coyotes when it came to showing fight. Many teams would waiver after trailing by 11 points with under five minutes to go. Even fewer would come back after giving up a 20-play, 99-yard drive that took over 11 minutes right before the comeback. The fashion in which this team won revealed more about their character than any other type of victory likely would have. ADVERTISEMENT Although I firmly felt that the Coyotes could end their season in Frisco, this win all but confirms that thinking for the rest of the country. The next month should be interesting and we’ll see if this Coyote team can show this level of fight in what could be the most memorable postseason run for the program. This isn’t so much something that USD did wrong, but more what Cam Miller did right. The NDSU signal caller already proved this season why he’s been one of the top players in the country. Especially near the end of the game, he showed not only how good of a player he is, but how clutch of a player he can be. Early on though, it looked like the Coyotes might have come in with the perfect game plan. Miller was really uncomfortable early, constantly under pressure on his face. In fact, he didn’t even throw for a single yard until the second quarter. He was struggling and USD had him searching for answers. But he eventually began to thrive, especially as he started to utilize his legs. He extended plays and had the Coyote defense on their toes for most of the game after the first quarter. But he really shined in the fourth quarter when it mattered most. Throughout the final 15 minutes, NDSU faced numerous third and fourth downs that if not converted, would have given the Coyotes a lot of momentum. However, every time NDSU needed a big play, the ball was in Miller’s hands. So, why is it so significant that I discuss the losing team’s quarterback? Well, that’s because if the hopes of a national title are to come to fruition, it’s likely USD will have to overcome Miller and NDSU again in the playoffs. USD has had plenty of hot starts this season. Although most of them were against inferior teams that never really had the firepower to make a legitimate comeback attempt, a 14-0 advantage against NDSU was big nonetheless. The Coyotes could have tacked on even more as they had the ball with that 14-0 lead, but then everything got sluggish. Offensively, the play calling went really conservative. Most play calls were runs and even when passes were called, they weren’t being executed to a high level. NDSU was also starting to get some pressure on both run and pass protection. Runs became shorter and Aidan Bouman had less time to throw. That sluggishness also extended into the second half. ADVERTISEMENT On the other side of the ball, the Coyote defense learned why Miller has been one of the best players in the country this season. I went into more detail above, but I’ll summarize once again. Up front, the line was still putting a lot of pressure on Miller, but his legs were keeping plenty of plays alive. Those extended plays were putting more pressure on the secondary to stay in coverage, and it didn’t always last. But, even though the Coyotes didn’t keep their foot on the Bison’s throat after amassing a 14-point advantage, it didn’t cost them the game. However, if USD meets another top-tier opponent like NDSU again in the playoffs and jumps out to an advantage, it will be all the more important that a lead doesn’t slip away.LOS ANGELES (AP) — Adrian Kempe and Quinton Byfield scored in the second period, and the Los Angeles Kings beat the Seattle Kraken 2-1 on Saturday. David Rittich made 19 saves for the Kings, who improved to 6-2-1 at home. Kempe and Byfield scored 1:44 apart in the second period. Byfield buried a sharp-angle slap shot on a power play while dropping to a knee. It was his 98th career point in 200 games. Brandon Montour got the Kraken on the board with 1:26 left in the game. He converted a long shot with Joey Daccord off for another skater, but Los Angeles held on. Daccord finished with 19 stops for Seattle. Kraken: Jordan Eberle will miss at least three months after undergoing surgery on his pelvis. He had six goals and five assists in 17 games before he got hurt against Chicago on Nov. 14. Kings: The power play had been in a 1-for-16 rut (6.25%) over the previous six games before Byfield found the net. It was the Kings' lone opportunity with the man-advantage. After following its 1-0 loss to Buffalo on Wednesday with a fourth straight period of extreme low-event hockey, Los Angeles created a lot more activity and offense to start the second and generate its two goals. The Kings know how to close out games, improving to 9-0-1 when leading after two periods. The Kraken visit Anaheim on Monday, and the Kings play at San Jose on Monday.

It's always a great time to invest in quality businesses that can prime your portfolio for long-term growth. It's important to be selective with the companies that you add to your portfolio and ensure that you only put cash into investments that align with your overall investment priorities, risk tolerance, and long-term goals. You should also only put cash to work that you can leave in your portfolio for a few years, not funds that you might soon need for bills or other financial obligations. On that note, if you're looking for top-notch growth stocks to buy right now and have $1,000 available to invest, here are two names to consider. Start Your Mornings Smarter! Wake up with Breakfast news in your inbox every market day. Sign Up For Free » 1. Eli Lilly Eli Lilly (NYSE: LLY) has been the darling of pharmaceutical stocks in the last 12 to 18 months, with shares rocketing upward as the popularity of its GLP-1 drugs has propelled revenue and earnings. Bear in mind, this is one of the oldest healthcare companies in the world, with a lineup of top-selling drugs across a range of disease categories that target everything from various cancers and cardiovascular ailments to endocrine disorders and neurological conditions. In the first nine months of 2024 alone, shares roared upward to the tune of about 62%. After the company reported its earnings for the third quarter of 2024, shares took a double-digit nosedive as investors responded negatively to a few key points, including a slight pullback in full-year guidance. The company also reported financial figures that were slightly below what Wall Street had expected. In terms of its full-year guidance, where Eli Lilly was targeting revenue for the 12-month period in the $45.4 billion to $46.6 billion range, the company is now projecting that it will deliver in the ballpark of $45.4 billion to $46 billion. Its Q3 revenue was around $800 million below what analysts had aimed for. That being said, a closer look is warranted, and the long-term outlook for this business is anything but dismal. Revenue in Q3 2024 rose 20% year over year to $11.4 billion. The company sold rights for its olanzapine portfolio in Q3, featuring products used to treat ailments such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. If you exclude revenue from this portfolio, Eli Lilly's top line actually jumped 42% on a year-over-year basis, which is a bit more than the 36% growth it reported in the second quarter. The company also reported net income of approximately $970 million in Q3. Tirzepatide, which is the main active ingredient in its top-selling drugs Mounjaro (for diabetes) and Zepbound (for weight loss), is being studied by Eli Lilly across multiple other disease areas. For example, positive phase 3 trial data from a 176-week study of tirzepatide demonstrated a 94% reduction in the risk of developing type 2 diabetes in adults with pre-diabetes who are obese or overweight. Another first-of-its-kind study initiated by Eli Lilly has been studying tirzepatide in adults with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) and obesity. In this phase 3 trial, tirzepatide reduced heart failure symptoms and physical limitations while lowering the risk of worsening heart failure events by 38%. Risk of hospitalization for heart failure was also reduced by 56% in trial patients taking tirzepatide. In short, the future revenue and profit opportunities from tirzepatide may be in the very early innings. In Q3, sales of Mounjaro rose more than 121% year over year to $3.1 billion, while Zepbound (which was just approved last November) raked in $1.3 billion in sales. This was despite negative effects for both drugs cited by Eli Lilly that were caused by inventory decreases in the wholesaler channel. Blockbuster cancer drug Verzenio generated $1.37 billion in sales in the quarter, up 32% from one year ago, while sales of autoimmune disease drug Taltz jumped 18% to $879.6 million. While investors appear to be particularly reactionary in the current environment, that can present an opportunity for those with a sufficient buy-and-hold horizon to take a slice of the action. While Eli Lilly doesn't trade at a cheap valuation by any means, its annual dividend of $5.20 and steady increase to its payout can augment total investor returns. Investors who want to become part-owner in a top healthcare business with a steady global footprint may be remiss to overlook this quality stock. 2. Monday.com Monday.com (NASDAQ: MNDY) is a low-code and no-code platform that helps organizations build the work management tools and software applications they need to ensure business operations run smoothly. The company derives its revenue from monthly or annual subscription agreements that it enters into with customers who use its cloud-based platform. Monday.com's software enables everything from project management and collaboration to helping keep tools and files in a single location for easy access. Clients with little to no coding experience can leverage its platform to develop customized workflow apps featuring boards, charts, and other important automation solutions. Companies like Canva, Lionsgate , and Coca-Cola are just a handful of the big names on Monday.com's client roster. Investors have been particularly optimistic about Monday.com's performance recently, with shares skyrocketing to the tune of about 50% over the trailing 12-month period. As always, share price is never a reason to buy (or sell) a stock. You need to look at the underlying business, its drivers and detractors of growth, its financial performance, its industry, and its long-term growth runway to gain a clear picture of whether it's a wise fit for your portfolio. In the case of Monday.com, the company has only been in business since 2012, so it's still in the relatively early stages of its potential growth story. Management estimates that the company operates in a large and growing total addressable market, which could hit a valuation of $150 billion by the year 2026. The diverse range of solutions that Monday.com's platform offers allows it to target various segments of its overall market opportunity, including the $30 billion customer relationship management (CRM) software market. From a financial perspective, Monday.com is doing quite well. Its third-quarter revenue rose 33% from the year-ago period to $251 million, and the company officially surpassed the $1 billion annual recurring revenue (ARR) mark. Its overall net dollar retention rate (NRR) increased to 111%, while NRR for customers with more than $100,000 in ARR was 115%. The number of paid customers with more than $100,000 in ARR jumped 44% from one year ago. Meanwhile, the company's second-largest customer, which is an unnamed international technology company, more than doubled its seat count to 60,000 from 25,000. Although Monday.com is not profitable on the basis of generally accepted accounting principles ( GAAP ), cash flow is another core profitability metric to consider. From a free cash flow perspective, the company raked in $82.4 million of free cash flow, while net cash provided by operating activities was $86.6 million in Q3. While investors may need a certain level of risk tolerance to invest in software stocks, this resilient business looks like a compelling addition to a well-diversified portfolio.

Newest Sacramento State football head coach Brennan Marion is no stranger to the Hornets’ green and gold colorway. Marion first donned the colors as head coach of the St. Patrick-St. Vincent High School football team in 2013. In Marion’s only season as a head coach at St. Pat’s, he led the Bruins to the first round of the playoffs. The team finished 5-6 overall in 2013 and lost a first-round playoff game to Piner. Marion resigned shortly afterwards to become the head coach at Waynesboro Area Senior High School in Pennsylvania. At Waynesboro, Marion dove deeper into his innovative ‘Go-Go’ offense and took it with him to eight different college coaching stops across the nation. The ‘Go-Go’ offense is a high-tempo, downhill run game that lines up two running backs next to the quarterback. It was most notably on display in his two seasons as the offensive coordinator at UNLV from 2023-2024. This past season, the Rebels ranked 35th in the FBS in total offense (425.8 yards per game) and 14th in scoring (36.2 points per game). Marion also worked with NFL wide receivers Jordan Addison and Xavier Worthy during his time as the wide receiver coach at the University of Texas and the University of Pittsburgh. After former Sac State head coach Andy Thompson stepped down, the Hornets sprung for the offensive guru and Marion accepted his first college head coaching job on Dec. 20. Marion is already off to a hot start in the transfer portal, bringing in multiple FBS transfers to Sac State. Some of the notable names include former Oregon State wide receiver Jordan Anderson and Tulsa quarterback Cardell Williams. Marion has also found success on the recruitment trail, drawing talent from the Bay Area. In a post on X, he expressed his appreciation for the region where he took his first head coaching role. “Vallejo or the Valley Jo or the home of Mac Dre or the Home of E-40 or as I say Springs Road! Has always been good to me!!! Bay Areaaaaa!!! That’s 2 from the soil! #GoGoSacramento,” Marion said in a post on X. Marion also has experience as a player. He was a wide receiver and was signed by the Miami Dolphins as an undrafted free agent in 2009, but never played in an official game. He played college football for Foothill, De Anza, and Tulsa. At Tulsa he set the single-season NCAA FBS yards-per-catch record in a single season at 31.9 and finished as the NCAA career leader at 28.7 yards-per-catch. He had back-to-back 1,000-yard receiving seasons.
MANILA, Philippines — Philippine Vice President Sara Duterte said Saturday she has contracted an assassin to kill the president, his wife and the House of Representatives speaker if she herself is killed, in a brazen public threat that she warned was not a joke. Executive Secretary Lucas Bersamin referred the “active threat” against President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. to an elite presidential guards force “for immediate proper action.” It was not immediately clear what actions would be taken against the vice president. The Presidential Security Command immediately boosted Marcos' security and said it considered the vice president's threat, which was “made so brazenly in public,” a national security issue. The security force said it was “coordinating with law enforcement agencies to detect, deter, and defend against any and all threats to the president and the first family.” Marcos ran with Duterte as his vice-presidential running mate in the May 2022 elections and both won with landslide victories on a campaign call of national unity. The two leaders and their camps, however, rapidly had a bitter falling-out over key differences, including in their approaches to China’s aggressive actions in the disputed South China Sea. Duterte resigned from the Marcos Cabinet in June as education secretary and head of an anti-insurgency body. Like her equally outspoken father, former President Rodrigo Duterte , the vice president became a vocal critic of Marcos, his wife Liza Araneta-Marcos and House Speaker Martin Romualdez, the president’s ally and cousin, accusing them of corruption, incompetence and politically persecuting the Duterte family and its close supporters. Her latest tirade was set off by the decision by House members allied with Romualdez and Marcos to detain her chief of staff, Zuleika Lopez, who was accused of hampering a congressional inquiry into the possible misuse of her budget as vice president and education secretary. Lopez was later transferred to a hospital after falling ill and wept when she heard of a plan to temporarily lock her up in a women’s prison. In a pre-dawn online news conference, an angry Sara Duterte accused Marcos of incompetence as a president and of being a liar, along with his wife and the House speaker in expletives-laden remarks. When asked about concerns over her security, the 46-year-old lawyer suggested there was an unspecified plot to kill her. “Don’t worry about my security because I’ve talked with somebody. I said 'if I’m killed, you’ll kill BBM, Liza Araneta and Martin Romualdez. No joke, no joke,’” the vice president said without elaborating and using the initials that many use to call the president. "I’ve given my order, ‘If I die, don’t stop until you’ve killed them.’ And he said, ’yes,’” the vice president said. Under the Philippine penal code, such public remarks may constitute a crime of threatening to inflict a wrong on a person or his family and is punishable by a jail term and fine. Amid the political divisions, military chief Gen. Romeo Brawner issued a statement with an assurance that the 160,000-member Armed Forces of the Philippines would remain nonpartisan “with utmost respect for our democratic institutions and civilian authority.” “We call for calm and resolve,” Brawner said. “We reiterate our need to stand together against those who will try to break our bonds as Filipinos.” The vice president is the daughter of Marcos’ predecessor, Rodrigo Duterte, whose police-enforced anti-drugs crackdown when he was a city mayor and later as president left thousands of mostly petty drug suspects dead in killings that the International Criminal Court has been investigating as a possible crime against humanity. The former president denied authorizing extrajudicial killings under his crackdown but has given conflicting statements. He told a public Philippine Senate inquiry last month that he had maintained a “death squad” of gangsters to kill other criminals when he was mayor of southern Davao city.TORONTO - Losses in the tech sector led Canada’s main stock index lower Friday, while U.S. stock markets also fell.

VERMILLION — In one of the most memorable games in University of South Dakota football history, the Coyotes mounted a furious late fourth-quarter comeback to defeat North Dakota State 29-28 to clinch a share of the program’s first Missouri Valley Football Conference title. Despite falling behind 28-17 with under five minutes to play, the Coyotes showed why they’ve been one of the top teams in the country. Two touchdowns within three minutes gave USD a 29-28 advantage with 12 seconds left and a last-ditch lateral player fell short for the Bison on the final play of the day. ADVERTISEMENT Aidan Bouman finished with 272 yards and two touchdowns on 18-for-30 passing on the day. Javion Phelps came up clutch late in the game with multiple game-saving catches, including the game-winning touchdown. He finished the day with 79 receiving yards and a touchdown. Travis Theis was USD’s leading rusher with 66 yards and two touchdowns. With that, here are three observations from the game... The question surrounding this season had always been how good was USD really? The Coyotes took care of business against most weaker opponents and competed with better opponents like SDSU and even Wisconsin. But there was still one thing missing, a truly signature victory. Saturday finally provided that victory. With NDSU ranked No. 1 in the country and seen as possibly the title favorite, this was the game for the Coyotes to prove to the rest of the FCS that they can be a formidable force in the postseason. Not only did they take home the victory, but they did it in a fashion that showed more grit than any other this season. In previous observations, I’ve commended USD for showing grit in tough situations. Games against Youngstown State and UND where they fell behind by multiple possessions early and came back to win. Also against SDSU even though that resulted in a loss. But this was the coup de grâce for the Coyotes when it came to showing fight. Many teams would waiver after trailing by 11 points with under five minutes to go. Even fewer would come back after giving up a 20-play, 99-yard drive that took over 11 minutes right before the comeback. The fashion in which this team won revealed more about their character than any other type of victory likely would have. ADVERTISEMENT Although I firmly felt that the Coyotes could end their season in Frisco, this win all but confirms that thinking for the rest of the country. The next month should be interesting and we’ll see if this Coyote team can show this level of fight in what could be the most memorable postseason run for the program. This isn’t so much something that USD did wrong, but more what Cam Miller did right. The NDSU signal caller already proved this season why he’s been one of the top players in the country. Especially near the end of the game, he showed not only how good of a player he is, but how clutch of a player he can be. Early on though, it looked like the Coyotes might have come in with the perfect game plan. Miller was really uncomfortable early, constantly under pressure on his face. In fact, he didn’t even throw for a single yard until the second quarter. He was struggling and USD had him searching for answers. But he eventually began to thrive, especially as he started to utilize his legs. He extended plays and had the Coyote defense on their toes for most of the game after the first quarter. But he really shined in the fourth quarter when it mattered most. Throughout the final 15 minutes, NDSU faced numerous third and fourth downs that if not converted, would have given the Coyotes a lot of momentum. However, every time NDSU needed a big play, the ball was in Miller’s hands. So, why is it so significant that I discuss the losing team’s quarterback? Well, that’s because if the hopes of a national title are to come to fruition, it’s likely USD will have to overcome Miller and NDSU again in the playoffs. USD has had plenty of hot starts this season. Although most of them were against inferior teams that never really had the firepower to make a legitimate comeback attempt, a 14-0 advantage against NDSU was big nonetheless. The Coyotes could have tacked on even more as they had the ball with that 14-0 lead, but then everything got sluggish. Offensively, the play calling went really conservative. Most play calls were runs and even when passes were called, they weren’t being executed to a high level. NDSU was also starting to get some pressure on both run and pass protection. Runs became shorter and Aidan Bouman had less time to throw. That sluggishness also extended into the second half. ADVERTISEMENT On the other side of the ball, the Coyote defense learned why Miller has been one of the best players in the country this season. I went into more detail above, but I’ll summarize once again. Up front, the line was still putting a lot of pressure on Miller, but his legs were keeping plenty of plays alive. Those extended plays were putting more pressure on the secondary to stay in coverage, and it didn’t always last. But, even though the Coyotes didn’t keep their foot on the Bison’s throat after amassing a 14-point advantage, it didn’t cost them the game. However, if USD meets another top-tier opponent like NDSU again in the playoffs and jumps out to an advantage, it will be all the more important that a lead doesn’t slip away.‘I said I’d be here for three years’ – Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers in no rush and delays contract talk until NEXT seasonCOLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) — Amazon Web Services will invest another $10 billion to bolster its data center infrastructure in Ohio.

Even after cooling off a bit, they never trailed and stayed poised when the Trojans got within three in the second and third quarters. USC: The Trojans were without starting guard Kennedy Smith, whose defense on Hidalgo would have proven valuable. It was announced shortly before tipoff that she had a surgical procedure and will return at some point this season. Key moment The Trojans got within three points three times but the Irish remained poised and never gave up the lead. Key stats Notre Dame's defense forced the Trojans into 21 turnovers, which led to 22 points for the Irish. Watkins, Kaleigh Heckel and Talia von Oelhoffen had five each.
