SILVIS, Ill. — Zach Johnson is skipping three majors for the John Deere Classic, which feels like a major for the Iowa native. He made the decision pay off Thursday with an eagle-birdie finish for a 7-under 64 that left him one shot out of the lead.

YOUNGSTOWN — Fresh off its first appearance in Indianapolis and a runner-up finish at the Horizon League tournament this spring, the Youngstown State women’s basketball team was back on the court this week. Just like last year, the Penguins are bringing back a large contingent of ...
