🔼 Not In Our House. Watch out folks, the Cowboys are getting hot.

After a tough start to the 2025 spring season, the OSU men’s tennis team is starting to roll after picking up a fourth straight victory, winning a 4-3 thriller over BYU, who entered the match at 11-2 on the year.

That comes just a week after the Cowboys took down Tulsa. Both BYU and Tulsa are among the latest ITA national rankings released this week.

🎾 The Full Recap

🔼 The Great Griz. Forever beloved as one of all-time great Cowboys, Tony Allen will now take his rightful place among the all-time greats of another organization.

This weekend, Allen will have his No. 9 jersey retired by the Memphis Grizzlies. He will become the just the third player in the franchise’s history to have their jersey retired.

After signing as a free agent in 2010, Allen helped guide the Grizzlies to the NBA Playoffs in all seven of his seasons in Memphis (2010-17) and factored into the club’s first postseason victory in 2011 and the team’s trip to the 2013 Western Conference Finals.

The Chicago native ranks second in franchise history in steals (762) and ranks in the top 10 in games played (462; 6th), offensive rebounds (741; 9th), blocks (217; 10th) and minutes (11,588; 10th).

🔼 Back To The Steel City. Mason Rudolph will be back on an NFL sideline this upcoming fall for an eighth season.

And he’ll be back in a familiar place as the former OSU star returned to the Pittsburgh Steelers with a two-year deal on Wednesday night.

Rudolph was originally selected by the Steelers in the third round of the 2018 draft and spent the first six years of his career in the Steel City.

In his seven NFL seasons, the former Cowboy has appeared in 29 games, piling up 4,615 passing yards and 28 TDs.
