INDIANAPOLIS -- Josef Newgarden has informed Ed Carpenter he will not return to the IndyCar team next season.Ed Carpenter Racing announced Newgardens decision on Thursday. The American driver is thought to be highly coveted by Team Penske, which has been in limbo over the status of former Indianapolis 500 winner Juan Pablo Montoya. It could lead to a seat swap, with Newgarden going to Penske and Montoya moving to ECR.ECR said only that it is evaluating all options for next seasons driver lineup.While its disappointing that Josef will not be returning, its also not a total surprise after all of the speculation the past few weeks, Carpenter said. I wish Josef the best in his future endeavors, but also remain focused on ECRs continued success. We are positioned well moving into 2017 and I have total confidence that we will continue to deliver the high level of performance we expect as a team.Carpenter will continue to drive for his team on ovals.Newgarden won three races driving for Carpenter and finished a career-best fourth in the standings behind three Penske drivers.

After a lengthy wait, persistent rain finally forced the postponement of the Nationals game against the Miami Marlins on Saturday night. The teams, and a few thousand fans, waited nearly four hours from the 7:05 scheduled start time before an announcement was made shortly before 11 p. Bob Lilly Jersey .

Antwaun Woods Jersey .Y. - Detroit goaltender Jonas Gustavsson has earned NHL first star of the week honours after winning in his first three appearances of the season. EAST LANSING, Mich. -- Its rare these days for a team to beat Michigan State so soundly that the game is essentially over midway through the fourth quarter.Alabama did it in last years national semifinals, and now Wisconsin has a blowout win over the Spartans on its resume -- the latest sign that the Badgers should be treated as contenders in what could be a loaded Big Ten.Wisconsin forced four turnovers and held Michigan State to 75 yards rushing in Saturdays 30-6 win over the Spartans. The Badgers moved up three spots to No. 8 in the AP poll Sunday, and Michigan State fell nine spots to No. 17.Wisconsin (4-0, 1-0) has not allowed more than 17 points in a game this season, and the Badgers have allowed only three offensive touchdowns.Well, Ive been lucky. Ive been around some really good defenses, coach Paul Chryst said after Saturdays win. Today, it was big and I thought again it was a good plan by our defensive coaches because our kids understood it and they were able to execute it and they were opportunistic.If Michigan State sometimes seems overlooked in a league that includes Urban Meyer and Jim Harbaugh, one can only imagine how Wisconsin feels. The Badgers won three straight Big Ten titles from 2010-2012, but theyve made only one appearance in the conference title game since -- a 59-0 loss to eventual national champion Ohio State in 2014.With Ohio State, Michigan and Michigan State in the East Division, its hard for teams on the other side of the league to earn too much of the spotlight, but Wisconsin has an opportunity to change that. The Badgers already have beaten LSU and Michigan State, and their next two games are at No. 4 Michigan and against No. 2 Ohio State.If they win either of those two, theyd have another significant victory that could serve them well with the playoff committee if they were to win the league championship.Every time I get on ESPN theres all this talk about this stretch of three games, defensive end Alec James said, after Wisconsin won the first one with ease.ddddddddddddMichigan State rushed for 260 yards the previous weekend at Notre Dame, but Wisconsins front contained running back LJ Scott and pressured quarterback Tyler OConnor. Michigan States low rushing total was partially because of sacks and a mishap on a punt, but the Spartans couldnt establish any consistency moving the ball.With Michigan State needing more from the passing game, OConnor was intercepted three times.When some things, you know, opportunities presented themselves, turnovers we were able to capitalize on, Chryst said. Obviously we think its a really good Michigan State team and a good offense, and we respect their running game, but guys were doing their assignments and they were finishing and that certainly gave us a chance.A season after leading the nation by allowing 13.7 points per game, the Badgers are allowing an average of 11.8. On Saturday, the Wisconsin defense gave up only two field goals and scored a touchdown itself on Leo Mussos 66-yard fumble return.The Badgers are now 12th in the nation in total defense and 10th against the run, and if anyone doubted the legitimacy of this teams impressive start, well, Mic
