SPORTS BRIEFING
FOOTBALL
Oregon dropped out of the AP poll to end the 2020
season — The Ducks (4-3) fell from No. 25 with 126 points in
the final poll of the regular season to 21 points in what would
be No. 29 in the final AP poll of the 2020 season following
their 34-17 loss to Iowa State in the Fiesta Bowl. It’s the second
time in three years Oregon will finish the season unranked in
the AP poll. No. 21 USC is the only Pac-12 team ranked.
Thousands party in streets after Alabama win, de-
spite virus — Thousands of University of Alabama football
fans partied in the street near campus after the Crimson Tide
defeated Ohio State 52-24 for the national championship, ig-
noring pleas for safety at the height of the coronavirus pan-
demic in a celebration that a top health official said Tuesday
could worsen disease. Students and others poured out of jam-
packed bars near campus as time expired in Miami late Mon-
day, traffic cameras and images posted on social media show.
Many of the fans screaming and cheering as they pressed
against each other in the street didn’t wear face masks.
Packers QB Rodgers says he will guest-host on ‘Jeop-
ardy!’ — Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers says
he will be a guest host on “Jeopardy!” during the offseason.
The show is currently using a series of interim hosts to replace
Alex Trebek, who died of cancer on Nov. 8. That process be-
gan when record-holding contestant Ken Jennings made his
debut on an episode that aired Monday. Rodgers was a win-
ning “Celebrity Jeopardy!” contestant in 2015.
BASKETBALL
NBA, union stiffen virus protocols, another game
postponed — With four games called off this week already
and more teams dealing with virus-related issues, the NBA
and the National Basketball Players Association enacted ad-
ditional rules Tuesday in the hope of keeping the season go-
ing safely. Among the new policies: for “at least the next two
weeks,” the league and union said, players and team staff will
have to remain at their residence when in their home mar-
kets and prohibited from leaving their hotels or having out-
side guests when on the road. Orlando’s game in Boston on
Wednesday was also called off, the fourth postponement
since Sunday and the third involving the Celtics.

“But we as a staff are prepar-
ing like February the 8th we
are gonna get into a week of
real practice and hopefully put
on the helmet and shoulder
pads the following week.”
Throughout Season 1 and
dating back to last June, Moun-
tain View has continued to
hold football practices within
the guidelines set forth by the
OHA and the Oregon School
Activities Association.
“We have been lifting
weights since June 16th, we
had almost 15 practices and
we had seven different 7-on-7
competitions,” Crum said. “Ev-
erything keeps getting dragged
out and stretched out, but the
kids need it. There is no doubt
about that.”

ing scenario for high school
coaches like Crum, who want
their athletes to have oppor-
tunities to play and get rec-
ognized by college football
coaches, but who also want
what is safest and in the best
interest of the kids.
“There is a fine line, if kids
find the right program and
there is a coach who is really
invested in those kids and
wants to help develop those
kids, then I have no problem
if my quarterback wants to go
out and get more reps,” Crum
said.
“It is probably good that he
is hearing another voice be-
sides mine all the time. He is
going to get experience that
right now, during this pan-
demic, I can’t provide.”
Preparing for a football
game in the age of COVID-19
and its restrictions creates an
interesting challenge.
Unlike most sports, there
is little ad-libbing in football,
as each play has a design that
requires 11 different moving
parts.
But under the current
guidelines, it is impossible for
11 players to work on plays
against another 11 players.
“The game has a funny way
of finding the one guy out of
11 that doesn’t know their job,
or makes a mistake, or had a
breakdown in terms of what
they are doing,” Crum said.
Without high school foot-
ball, not only in Oregon but in
other states, there has been a
rise in club football teams. In
recent weeks, California has
seen multiple full-contact foot-
ball teams made up of high
schoolers given a chance to
play and compete outside of
the high school structure.
This presents an interest-
Detroit coach Jeff Blashill
has held high-intensity prac-
tices. He also is hoping the
three extra days of practice for
non-playoff teams will help.
Forward Drake Batherson,
who has skated in 43 games
with the Senators over the past
two seasons, worked out for
two months in Nova Scotia
with a group of players that
included Sidney Crosby of the
Penguins.
The 22-year-old arrived for
camp in mid-December and
his approach has been simple.
“I think you have to come to
the rink every day, treating it
like a game and showing every
practice matters and you want
to make the team,” Batherson
said.
New Jersey Devils center Jack Hughes (86) skates with the puck next
to New York Rangers defenseman Joey Keane (82) during a preseason
game in 2019, in Newark, New Jersey. The Devils are one of seven NHL
teams that have not played since March of last year.

SKIING
Shiffrin wins night race for 1st slalom victory in 1
year — Mikaela Shiffrin won a night slalom Tuesday to end a
NHL
year-long victory drought in her strongest discipline and earn
her 100th World Cup podium. Shiffrin, who last triumphed
in a slalom in December 2019, held on to her opening-run
lead and beat Katharina Liensberger by 0.19 seconds following
a near-flawless final run, denying the Austrian her first career
win. Liensberger is the only skier to finish in the top three of
all five slaloms so far this season. The result made Shiffrin the
eighth skier in the 54-year-long history of the World Cup to
reach 100 podium finishes.

With training camp now
open, Kings coach Todd Mc-
Lellan said players are making
progress getting their hands,
timing and awareness back.
There were no preseason
games, he noted, so picking a
team will be challenging.
“Hopefully we have done
our homework better than the
other groups,” McLellan said.
The Red Wings are eager to
start.
They had the worst record
by far last season and gen-
eral manager Steve Yzerman
didn’t shell out a lot of money
in free agency to bring in top
talent.
