QB Will Rogers arrives at UW with chance to shed ‘Air Raid’ label

Wyatt Rogers is taking this phone call in the middle of a hay field. It’s 91 degrees outside, though it feels hotter because of the humidity. This isn’t where he’d normally be at 6 p.m. Aug. 19. For the past four years, Wyatt would’ve been embarking on the 90-minute drive northeast from Brandon, Miss., to Mississippi State, where he’d celebrate his eldest son’s birthday.

When Jacquie Williams-Battle first heard her mother was sick in early March, she didn’t think much of it. “I kind of thought it was just another flu that was just going to pass by like all the other stuff that comes around,” she said. “I thought it was just going to come and go.”

Ice cream, candy, and Olympic gold

Matthew Centrowitz didn’t want to talk to anybody following his race at the 2008 Oregon Twilight, let alone his coach. After placing 16th out of 25 runners in the 1,500 meters, the freshman stormed off the track, broke down in tears, and ultimately found himself in the dorm room of his best friend. All he wanted to do was punish his body with as much ice cream as he could eat.
