Northern Knights and Leinster Lightning roar to final day wins in Cork
Cade Carmichael top-scored for the Knights, making an unbeaten 39 in the morning's all-Ulster clash — one of four players to pass 30. Ben Calitz provided the late impetus to their innings, clearing the ropes four times in a 12-ball 35, while Morgan Topping and Neil Rock each made 31 — the latter also hitting four maximums in a total of 175 for five. Graham Hume (three for 24) was by far the pick of the North-West attack on a pitch that offered more assistance than normal. The Warriors' chase was a poor one as they were bundled out for just 66 as their batting struggled from the outset. It was certainly a case of 'spin to win' with Instonians' left-arm spinner taking three wickets, as did fellow tweaker Carson McCullough. CSNI professional Sean Davey also claimed two scalps as Simon Johnston's side recorded their second bonus point victory of the week by a whopping 109 runs. They were joined at the top of the table by defending Champions Leinster Lightning, who showed they will still be the team to beat when at full strength. Munster would have been relatively happy at the midway stage after posting 166 for six, with former Ireland Under-19 captain Philippe Le Roux top-scoring with a 36-ball unbeaten 64 (six fours, three sixes) and Wednesday's centurion Stephen Doheny making 35. Pembroke's Gavin Hoey took four wickets in a fine exhibition of leg-spin as the Dubliner's bowling unit stuck to their task well. Any thoughts of a home win were quickly dispelled in a barrage of boundaries from the opening pair of Chris De Freitas and Tim Tector. Balbriggan left-hander De Freitas — widely tipped for international recognition — hit seven sixes and five fours in a whirlwind 70 from only 29 deliveries, sharing an opening stand of 118 in just 8.5 overs with Tector (45) to effectively decide the contest. Bakhtyar Nabi took three wickets, but it was only delaying the inevitable as Lightning won by six wickets in the 16th over. The teams are all back in action next week at Stormont for the second of four scheduled Festivals.

London Knights acquire forward Max Crete from the Niagara IceDogs
The glow might not be off the London Knights' 2025 Memorial Cup championship, but the push toward next season and beyond is well underway. On June 19, London acquired 17-year-old forward Max Crete from the Niagara IceDogs in exchange for Jacob Monks and a 9th-round draft pick in 2028. Crete was selected 30th overall by the IceDogs in 2024 and played all 68 games for Niagara last year as a 16-year-old rookie. Crete scored 11 times and added eight assists. He is from Ottawa and played for the Upper Canada Cyclones growing up. He was the captain of the Cyclones in his U16 year and led them in scoring.

Story continues below advertisement He joins Logan Hawery, Caleb Mitchell, Max Mews, Jaxon Cover and Eddie Hickson as prospects on the London roster from the 2024 draft. Monks is also a skilled forward who was a fifth-round pick of the Knights in 2024 and spent last year split between the U.S. National Development Team Program and the Little Caesar's U16 AAA team. Monks also played one game with the Fargo Force of the North American Hockey League. The Wyandotte, Mich., native is committed to Merrimack College for the 2027-28 season and has not signed an OHL Scholarship and Development Agreement to this point. The Knights will open the season and raise their third Memorial Cup championship banner to the rafters of Canada Life Place on Sept. 19, 2025, against the Owen Sound Attack. On June 1, London joined the Windsor Spitfires, the Kamloops Blazers and the Cornwall Royals as the only franchises to win the Memorial Cup three times since the tournament format was adopted in 1972. The Knights defeated the Medicine Hat Tigers 4-1 in the final game in Rimouski, Que. London has won two consecutive Ontario Hockey League titles.

The Knights' six rising talents in State of Origin arena
There wasn't much Evah McEwen didn't do in 2024. The 19-year-old was the Knights' Tarsha Gale (under 19s) player of the year, represented NSW in the women's under-19 State of Origin, made her NRLW debut, helped Samoa secure a spot at the 2026 World Cup and was nominated on the Golden Boot long list for international player of the year. This year is poised to be even bigger for the powerful second-rower. The St Marys junior has been upgraded from Knights development player to top-24 roster, locked down until the end of 2027, and will be pushing for a starting spot following the departure of Laishon Albert-Jones to the New Zealand Warriors. The dynamic forward represented the Indigenous All Stars in February and was included in John Strange's extended NSW women's Origin squad in March. Newcastle NRLW coach Ben Jeffries has likened McEwen to Knights, NSW and Australian game-breaker Yasmin Clydsdale, arguably the best second-rower the women's game has seen. "She's just dynamic," Jeffries said. "She can break tackles, has speed. She's got effort areas. I can see a real resemblance of a young Yasmin Clydsdale. "She's got the best mentor in Yas next to her, so she can learn from arguably the best in the world." The teenager is taking nothing for granted as she lines up for NSW in the women's under-19 State of Origin showdown on the Sunshine Coast on Thursday (5.45pm). McEwen is one of up to six Knights set to feature in the under-19 Origin double-header. Mercedez Taulelei-Siala and Mariah Brown, both development players this year, are in the Queensland squad. Knights trio Cody Hopwood, Connor Votano and Jack Hilliar are in the Blues men's squad. The men's exchange is at 7.45pm. "I'm just enjoying camp," McEwen told the Newcastle Herald. "This will probably be my last time pulling on the NSW jersey until I hopefully crack women's, so I'm very proud and privileged to put on this jersey again. "There's no other feeling like it. It just brings the dog out of everyone, so I'm keen to do that all over again." McEwen was one of nine tryscorers as NSW annihilated Queensland 46-4 last year. "It opened a lot of doors for me, that was just the beginning," McEwen said. "It was the atmosphere as well. I can't even explain it. I'll be trying to soak all of that in, and I can't wait to do that all over again because there's nothing like Origin footy. "I'm keen to rip in and bring the shield back home again." Taulelei-Siala and Brown are among just four players returning from last year's Maroons side. Taulelei-Siala, a power-packed outside back, also had a big 2024. The 18-year-old Goona Eagles junior was in the Australian schoolgirls side, represented Samoa at the Pacific Championships alongside McEwen and earned a development contract with the Knights. Brown, who turns 19 on Thursday, is only 164 centimetres tall but is a tough and versatile back. The Highfields Eagles junior has been likened to former Knights' premiership-winning centre Abigail Roache, who has moved on to the North Queensland Cowboys. Hopwood and Votano are set for their second year in a Blues jersey while Hilliar has earned his first call-up. Last year, NSW beat Queensland 14-10 in the men's match. "It means a lot to me and my family to represent the Blues," Hopwood said. "You never know when you get to do it again. And, it means the world to be in the team with Jack and Connor. It's awesome to be able to do it with your best mates as well." Hopwood has just turned 19 but is already carving out a reputation against men in NSW Cup and the West Maitland Wallaroos junior looks destined to reach the NRL. A stand-out in the Knights' junior pathways system, he was elevated to an NRL contract for 2025 and is signed until at least the end of 2028. Standing at 195 centimetres tall and weighing 105 kilograms, the former Australian schoolboy representative is a highly-fancied prop with pure presence. "He's a tough front-rower who's got good skill if he needs to pass the ball, but his best attribute is his running game, and just defensively he works really hard for the team," Knights' NSW Cup and transition coach Michael Dobson said. "He's a great young leader. He's been playing NSW Cup against men all year and he only just turned 19 a couple of weeks ago, so he's doing a really good job." MORE IN SPORT: The Entrance Tigers junior Votano, 19, is an athletic fullback who is playing NSW Cup. "He's been doing a really good job, learning all the time," Dobson said. "Connor is a really good ball-runner who has good ball skills out the back of shape." Hilliar, a 19-year-old front-rower and Cessnock junior, has also come through the Knights pathways system and has played SG Ball (19s) and Jersey Flegg (21s) this year. "He's really tough through the middle and has got good leg speed," Dobson said. "Jack did the pre-season with the NRL squad, so they've all had a taste of NRL training. Connor and Cody every day and Jack in pre-season, which puts them in a really good position to go out and do a good job in NSW Origin." There wasn't much Evah McEwen didn't do in 2024.

‘So impressive': Lincoln-Way Central's Lisabella Dimitrijevic the 2025 Daily Southtown Softball Player of the Year.
When she walked into Lincoln-Way Central for the first time, Lisabella Dimitrijevic had some high hopes. Her goal was to make an impact on the softball program. But seriously. To rewrite the record book? To be a two-time Gatorade Illinois Player of the Year? The Florida State recruit was much too shy to expect that. 'I didn't think I'd get to the point where I am today,' Dimitrijevic said. 'I wanted to be there, obviously, but I never thought I'd come this far. It just kind of happened.' Dimitrijevic, the 2025 Daily Southtown Softball Player of the Year, will leave the Knights' program as their all-time pitching leader in wins, strikeouts, earned run average, least amount of runs allowed and innings pitched. Lincoln-Way Central coach Jeff Tarala said there are more obscure, advanced stats where she's also ranked No. 1. What a ride. 'I'm just so happy I got to experience all of this with my teammates and my coaches,' Dimitrijevic said. 'They have really been there for me throughout my whole experience at Lincoln-Way Central the past four years.' This season, Dimitrijevic posted a 23-1 record and a 0.46 ERA. The senior right-hander had an eye-catching 349 strikeouts in 164 2/3 innings. At the plate, she batted .318 with seven home runs and 39 RBIs. In addition to the Gatorade and Daily Southtown honors, she also was all-state and the SouthWest Suburban Conference's player of the year. Tarala didn't have a problem ranking her with the best to wear the uniform for the Knights. 'I think she is the best player ever at Lincoln-Way Central,' Tarala said. 'You know, Lyndsey Grein is up there, obviously. And there is Laura Severson as well. There have been other great ones. 'But Lisabella has set just about every single record. And I can go on and on and on about what she has achieved. It's so impressive that when you're in it … I don't think until we step out of it will we truly appreciate or understand just how great she was.' Dimitrijevic spent her freshman season watching and learning from Grein, who went on to pitch for two seasons at Virginia Tech and then won 30 games this season at Oregon. From her sophomore through senior seasons, Dimitrijevic was 68-8 in the circle for the Knights. 'She did it with a quiet confidence and a quiet determination,' Tarala said. 'Bella was like a silent force on that mound. She was hyperfocused — she had goals in mind. And the goal was to dominate the pitch, to dominate the hitter, to dominate the inning and to dominate the game. 'But at the same time — and it sounds contradictory — although she was super focused and concentrated, she also had things in perspective. It's high school softball. She wanted to enjoy herself and have fun with her friends.' In her own mind, the area that Dimitrijevic has grown the most goes back to being a shy freshman. 'I was never really a huge leader when I was little in travel ball,' Dimitrijevic said. 'Even freshman year, Lyndsey pretty much did it all for me as far as being a leader. 'My sophomore year, we didn't have any seniors. So as the main pitcher, I felt like I had a big responsibility to step up and fill that leadership role. Obviously, it has gotten a lot better.' Junior infielder Ellie McLaughlin discovered the 'Bella effect' early on. 'My freshman year, when I didn't have to pick up many ground balls in the field, that's when I realized,' McLaughlin said, laughing. 'It has been just incredible watching her. 'She is so talented and so determined. Bella has been a leader in every aspect. She wants the best for everyone, and you can see it on the field and off the field. 'It was just an honor being on the field with such a competitive person.'

Young straight in for Knights on return
RLG: Despite having played for the Roosters against the Knights last weekend, Dom Young is once again a Knight and is immediately back in the team who play the high-flying Dolphins.
