The hunt for the lacrosse goal of the season is over. It happened in Pennyslvania, and the goalie who was beat on it is probably still coming to grips with what the heck happened.

The player you see scoring the miraculous goal in the video above is Philadelphia (Penn.) La Salle College High senior Stefan Bergman, a beefy defenseman who is headed to play at Michigan in 2014. Yet Bergman didn’t land his Michigan scholarship for his smooth stick handling, let alone his long distance shot.

Rather, Bergman is seen as a “positional” defenseman, the kind of solid bedrock player who doesn’t make mistakes that cost goals more than he makes plays that set up goals.

That scouting report serves to make his recent foray into the goal scoring charts all the more remarkable. Facing off against elite private school rival Haverford (Penn.) School, Bergman found himself to the left of the cage starting a clear, desperately searching for someone open up the field.

When he couldn’t find anyone, Bergman sent his gaze further up the field and noticed that Haverford goalie Jake Landman had drifted upfield, leaving him off his line in front of goal.

From there, Bergman didn’t hesitate, launching a full 80-yard strike toward the Haverford cage, where the ball landed smoothly over Landman, sending the La Salle sideline into delirium.

A renowned California high school track and field program finds itself without two of its star athletes just in time for the rush toward the state championship meets thanks to the latest PG-13 related dance meme: Twerking.

As reported by the Associated Press and a handful of other news outlets, officials at San Diego (Cal.) Scripps Ranch High suspended either 31 or 33 students (depending on which outlet you consult) because of their appearance in a slightly racy YouTube video. The bans will keep the students from attending the senior prom or their commencement ceremonies.

According to one report from ABC 10 news network, three of the suspended students mere members of the undefeated Scripps Ranch track and field squad, endangering the program’s perfect run.

"One of our best hurdlers, one of our best sprinters, and one of our best high jumpers are not allowed to run at our most important meet tomorrow because they're suspended for this video," Scripps Ranch student Emily Benzie told ABC 10.

You can see the video for which the students were suspended above. While it could safely be categorized as involving slightly sexual themes, it displays no nudity. More telling, the entire YouTube video is based on a viral dance trend that has been displayed by the likes of Miley Cyrus and other celebrities in recent weeks, as noted by USA Today.

That apparently didn’t ease the administration’s nerves, with officials acting quickly to ban all students involved shortly after the video was brought to their attention. The school claimed that the video violated the school’s sexual harassment policy, simply because it was “sexual in nature.”

Regardless of how one feels about LeBron James in total, he’s always been remarkably generous with local charities in general, particularly in his hometown of Akron. Now he’s taking a more specific charitable step to leave a legacy at one of the seminal spots along his remarkable journey.

As reported by the Akron Beacon-Journal and a variety of other sources, James is donating $1 million to his alma mater, Akron (Ohio) St. Vincent-St. Mary’s School, to fund the school’s long needed renovation of its gym.

The renovations to the SVSM gymnasium will include a new playing surface, improvements to both home and visiting locker rooms and vastly upgraded bleachers. The Beacon Journal reported that lighting and heating and cooling systems would also be upgraded as part of the large-scale capital project.

As for the role James will play with the re-design, the superstar took time out from his playoff preparations to sound a note of excitement about the plans for his former school’s gym and athletic future.

“I’m a hands-on guy and this is going to be more hands-on because it’s something that means a lot to me,” James told the Beacon-Journal. “I’ll try to be hands on with Coach Dru, with the school, with the floor, the locker rooms, the bleachers. … I have a good sense of what stadiums or arenas or schools or gyms should look like.”

While the changes slated for the 54-year-old gym are voluminous, they are also expected to be completed by the beginning of the 2013-14 basketball season, ensuring that SVSM can field a true home court advantage as it returns a loaded roster for another run at a state title.

It’s too early to accurately rank basketball players in the Class of 2016, but if they could be ranked, High Point (N.C.) Wesleyan Christian Academy forward Harry Giles would be right near the top. Have doubts? Just click play on the highlight reel above.

Giles, a 6-foot-8, 205-pound freshman who led Wesleyan to a North Carolina Interscholastic Athletic Association Class 3A title, first began getting attention before he had even played a high school basketball game. Now that a season is under his belt, that interest has hardly abated.

Instead, the forward has closed out his first regular season and continued to dominant in the early stages of the spring invitational tournament season, earning major plaudits for his performance at the Dave Telep Carolina Challenge, among other tournaments.

Giles has more than enough athleticism to make him a bona fide, breakthrough collegiate prospect right now. Yet the freshman appears perfectly happy to bide his time in the recruiting game. He has already received scholarship offers from the likes of North Carolina, Wake Forest and Ohio State, not to mention significant interest from the likes of Duke and Georgetown.

That North Carolina scholarship is particularly notable, because it makes him the first freshman Williams has ever extended a scholarship to.

"I just [want to] go out there and do my best, and show people [who claim] that he may not be that good,” Giles told Rivals.com affiliate Tarheel Illustrated. “Some people say I'm good, and some people say I'm not good. I'm going to show them.

"No [I don't worry about the expectations]. I just play my game. I just play basketball. I don't believe the hype and stuff and let it worry me or get to me, and just play like I have something to prove."

Long Beach Poly coach Sharrief Metoyer — Inner City Players

In March, one of Southern California’s most respected high school basketball coaches made a statement, intentionally inserting a player he knew to be ineligible in the closing moments of the team’s season-ending playoff loss. The move was made for purely symbolic reasons, with a coach attempting to stand up for a player he felt had been unjustly persecuted.

Long Beach (Cal.) Poly High basketball coach Sharrief Metoyer made his statement. Now the California Interscholastic Federation and Metoyer’s employer are making statements of their own, suspending Metoyer for an entire calendar year because of his decision to insert junior Kameron Chatman in Poly’s loss in the Open Division playoffs semifinal.

As first noted by Gazettes Sports, Metoyer was officially suspended from any activity involving the Poly basketball program for an entire calendar year by the Poly administration, a penalty that was backdated to April 1, 2013. The penalty was levied with an eye on the CIF, with Poly officials realizing that CIF would intervene if it deemed the school’s internal discipline of Metoyer to be lackluster.

In the end, the CIF was all too happy to sanction Poly’s internal discipline, cementing Metoyer’s year of absence from prep basketball but ensuring that the penalty would not last longer than 12 months, either.

“We admire Sharrief, he’s a great person, a great coach, and a great role model,” Poly co-principal Victor Jarels told the Gazettes. “He had a moment, and coaches have to set a higher standard. He’s taken complete responsibility for his actions.”

The year-long penalty feels like a particularly caustic ruling given the length of time that Chatman played. The junior -- who moved to Long Beach and joined the Poly squad so he could live with Metoyer, who is his Godfather -- sat out the entire season until there was 1:12 remaining during Poly’s playoff matchup against fellow SoCal powerhouse program Santa Ana (Cal.) Mater Dei High.

Chatman moved to Southern California to live with Metoyer, but that move was deemed to be made for competition’s sake, which meant that the budding forward couldn’t participate in a competitive game until one year after he arrived at the school.

Metoyer never shirked responsibility for his actions, nor did he ever question his own gut instinct that he had acted the right way.

“Somebody had to make a statement," Metoyer told the Los Angeles Times after the season-ending loss. "The game of basketball means nothing -- we’re supposed to be in the business of helping kids.”

Volleyball doesn’t typically earn consideration as a particularly hazardous sport. In fact, short of slipping on water on the court or getting one’s hand stuck in the net in a what would be a true fluke injury there may not be a way to get hurt in volleyball. In other words, it’s about as safe a sport as you’ll find outside the bounds of sheer dumb luck.

That doesn’t mean that volleyball can’t look like it hurts though, as one Illinois teen discovered during a recent game.

As first discovered and posted without full background by Bob’s Blitz -- and they have yet to miss a single buzzer beater, blooper or highlight reel by our calculations -- the video you see above comes from a recent boys volleyball game between Orland Park (Ill.) Carl Sandburg High and league foe Palos Hills (Ill.) Amos Alonzo Stagg High.

While the game featured plenty of highlights, the play that stole everyone’s attention was one of the great blooper shots of the year. While attempting to position himself to return an attempted Stagg spike, Sandberg junior Jimmy Drynan found himself on the wrong end of a very aggressively struck Voit (or Mizuno ... or Mikasa? We couldn’t read the brandmark from the video) orb.

In fact, the spike was so hard that it literally knocked Drynan over. Luckily for all, Drynan was able to pull himself up and get back in the game. His teammates flocked to him after the ball made contact with his head, though he was quick to shake off the incident.

In May 2012, Torii Hunter took time off from his then employers, the Anaheim Angels, to deal with a family crisis back home in Texas. One of the longtime All-Star outfielder’s sons, Darius McClintock-Hunter, had been accused of sexual assault related to a sexual incident involving two teenage girls.

Now, a year later, McClintock-Hunter has been cleared of any wrongdoing and its clear that he was falsely accused. Yet the teen isn’t getting his old life back, so he and his family are now filing suit against the families of the two teenage girls who falsely accused McClintock-Hunter of sexually assaulting them.

More specifically, the son of Torii Hunter and his represented filed a lawsuit seeking up to $40 million from the families of the two girls because of the irreparable harm that has been done to McClintock-Hunter’s image and life. The suit alleges that the girls’ actions, “falsely branded as a 'criminal,' ruined his reputation, sent him to an alternative school for a year, got him kicked off the Prosper High School football team and banned from high school sports."

At the time of the incident, McClintock-Hunter and four other male Prosper students were accused of forcing two female classmates to have sex with them. Yet some 48 hours after calling out McClintock-Hunter, the teenager’s accuser recanted her story and said he was not involved.

When McClintock-Hunter was accused of the alleged crime he was one of the nation’s rapidly rising football recruits. The then-junior had received scholarship offers from LSU, Arkansas and Oregon, among other programs, and there were whispers that he could try to attend the same school as his brother, fellow junior Torii Hunter Jr.

Yet the charges against McClintock-Hunter forced him to withdraw from Prosper (Tex.) High and enroll at an alternative school. That, in turn, kept him away from football, and his lack of action combined with the besmirching of his name to eliminate the major Division I scholarship offers that had come his way before the charges were levied against him.

Clearly, McClintock-Hunter has a case. His brother will attend Notre Dame in the fall and will compete for the Fighting Irish once an injury he suffered in the postseason heals. Meanwhile, McClintock-Hunter will aim to simply continue repairing his image, all while trying to recoup some of the dignity he and his image lost in the aftermath of a disturbing case of misappropriated wrongdoing.

Years after starring for the Nets, Kenny Anderson coached a Jewish hoops team — Getty

Well, that didn’t last long. Less than two years after being appointed as head boys basketball coach of a local Jewish high school, former NBA star Kenny Anderson has been fired in the aftermath of an arrest for a suspected DUI.

Anderson spent the 2011-12 and 2012-13 seasons serving as the head basketball coach at Davie (Fla.) David Posnack Jewish Day School, after being hired in September 2011. Anderson struggled to turn around the school’s fortunes, with Posnack finishing the most recent season with a woeful, 1-14 record.

However, those on-the-court struggles weren’t the reason that Anderson was fired. Rather, he was dismissed because he was arrested not once but twice for driving incidents in which it is alleged that he was inebriated. On Saturday, Anderson was arrested and held on suspicion of DUI after being witnessed swerving erratically. In December 2011, the coach crashed his car into two trees, but was eventually not charged because he fled the scene. No one was injured in either incident.

Yet the reputation of Posnack was apparently damaged enough to elicit an immediate response from the school, which issued a statement saying in no uncertain terms that Anderson would not be back leading the Posnack basketball program in 2013-14.

“Kenny Anderson will not be returning as head basketball coach next season for the David Posnack Jewish Day School,” Posnack Athletic Director Danny Herz wrote in a statement that was obtained by Miami-based website Gossip Extra.

There’s no word on what Anderson expects to do next, but the area will almost surely reflect on his time at Posnack as a true curiosity. The former 14-year NBA veteran has no direct ties to Judiasm, and his appointment appeared to come out of the blue.
