    By Chris Carr For eight years, Minnesotans in and around our high school sports communities have nominated deserving people for three special Star Tribune honors. It's time to push that winning streak to nine years. The Star Tribune is now accepting nominations for three special honors to be announced on June 24 at the All-Minnesota Sports Awards show at the Vikings headquarters in Eagan. Anyone can nominate a student, coach, leader or special person who contributes to prep sports.

    By Chris Carr The Star Tribune All-Metro Sports Awards celebration event had a strong seven-year run. Now it's time for the All- Minnesota Sports Awards show. In concert with the rebranded Minnesota Star Tribune and the renewed commitment to covering the entire state, our school year-end high school sports celebration is renamed and reformatted for 2025. The event will take place June 24 at Viking Lakes at the Minnesota Vikings team headquarters in Eagan.

    Even the most creative scriptwriters would have had trouble penning a drama better than this one. In the first-ever season, with a roaring audience on hand, the team that barely sneaked into the playoffs and couldn't even score a goal in its first two postseason games survived all the way to the end and netted an overtime championship-winner Sunday night in front of 13,000 home fans ... until it didn't. No goal. Goalie interference, decided on review.

    The NIL Revolution |A Star Tribune series examining how the name, image and likeness era is transforming college sports: startribune.com/nil. . . . Five bucks for every autograph. Twenty grand for a podcast appearance. Social media posts in exchange for $10,000. An autographed hockey sweater: Another ten grand. Football players making thousands for going to lunch with donors. The details in 272 endorsement deals recently signed by Gophers athletes are fascinating.

    Teams get hot. Athletes get hot. Sportswriters get hot, too. I spent the second half of last week crowing in the newsroom and in our meetings about the work coming from our sports beat writers, reporters and columnists so far this month. It's an incredible writing staff, among the best, if not the best, in the nation.
