The Rutgers men’s basketball team is going up against Temple on Friday in the Basketball Hall of Fame Showcase at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Connecticut. The Scarlet Knights (3-0, 0-0) are coming into this game undefeated after a 73-65 win over UMass Lowell on Saturday.

Rutgers cruised comfortably through its first two games before running into the River Hawks (2-1, 0-0), who kept the game close all the way to the finish. The Knights were able to keep their composure and fend off the upset behind 22 points and 15 rebounds from junior center Clifford Omoruyi.

In addition to Omoruyi’s double-double, freshman guard Derek Simpson chipped in with 16 points while senior guard Cam Spencer also added 15 points of his own.

“This has been a great opportunity,” Simpson said. “My teammates have been there helping me out a lot, especially (senior guard Paul Mulcahy). He’s been a great influence and has taught me a lot. He told me to get my teammates involved, and I know that’s extremely important.”

Not everything went perfectly for Rutgers though, as Mulcahy left the game early with a re-aggravated shoulder injury after running into a screen. Mulcahy participated in pre-second-half warmups and sat on the bench for the second half but did not return to the game.

On the other hand, the Owls (1-1, 0-0) have had an up-and-down start to the season. The program started the season with a 76-73 loss to Wagner but immediately rebounded with an upset 68-64 win over then-No. 16 Villanova. 

Temple boasts a lot of star power and point production behind the likes of Damian Dunn and Khalif Battle. The Knights will need to focus…

The CAD$130m entertainment centre will open its doors this fall.

Canada.- The Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation (OLG) and Niagara Casinos service provider MGE Niagara Entertainment Inc. (Mohegan) have announced the name of the new entertainment centre that will open at Fallsview Casino Resort. The 5,000-seat venue will be named OLG Stage at Fallsview Casino.

The CAD$130m (US$99.3m) venue will host live music and live entertainment with all seats no more than 150 feet away from the stage.

Duncan Hannay, OLG’s president and CEO, said: “OLG is thrilled to have partnered with Mohegan on this agreement, to enhance the entertainment experience for residents and the growing number of visitors to the Niagara region.

“The team at OLG is very proud to have provided leadership on the development of this spectacular new facility and we believe OLG Stage at Fallsview Casino is another great demonstration of OLG’s purpose to ‘Play for Ontario’”.

Peter Bethlenfalvy, Ontario’s minister of finance, said: “The gaming and entertainment sector has a proud history in the Niagara region and plays an essential role in Ontario’s economy.

“I want to congratulate OLG and Mohegan on this exciting new partnership, and I look forward to continuing to work with the sector to bring a world-class entertainment experience to Niagara Falls that will benefit the city, help create jobs and generate growth for businesses across the region.”

Construction on the entertainment venue was completed more than two years ago, but the first shows planned were cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Government restrictions in Ontario kept the casino closed until July 2021 and it had to close again in January 2022. 

The Fallsview Casino is the largest in Canada. It features more than 3,500 slot machines and 130 gaming tables. Other amenities include a 372-room hotel with…

Seventy-five participants scaled down the side of the sky tower about 30 stories to raise money to support Special Olympics programs.

MONTVILLE, Conn. — Volunteers supporting the Special Olympics in Connecticut rappelled down Mohegan Sun’s sky tower Friday.

It’s called “Over the Edge,” and it helps raise money and support for Special Olympics athletes of all abilities.

75 people are repelling off the side of Mohegan Sun this morning to support @SOCTconnecticut! It’s over 30 stories would you do this!? @FOX61News pic.twitter.com/c7qMgOOu34

About 75 people scaled down the wall of the building, about 30 stories. 

“Before they go over the edge they get paperwork and a harness and then they do a practice on the platform and then they go over the edge,” said Matt Glad, an athlete with the Special Olympics.

Instructors teach participants how to utilize ropes that help them scale down the wall, which is important for everyone’s safety.

“We’ve been partnering up with the Special Olympics to raise awareness and money, but it’s not about the money, it’s really about the awareness about what our athletes can do,” said Tom Madera, the co-director of the Torch Run. 

“We have at least 75 volunteers today who raised over $80,000 for this event. It’s such a great event for athletes and it’s great to see the partnerships with our law enforcement community and the Special Olympics community,” said Madera. 

Glad rappelled down the building and comes back every year to do so. He said heights are not a fear for his.
