North Dakota State and head coach Dave Richman have added some length through the transfer portal, grabbing Illinois State transfer Luke Kasubke. The 6-foot-5 190-pound guard has one year of eligibility remaining after spending his first two seasons playing at Kansas State and the two most recent at Illinois State. Kasubke made 18 starts over his Redbird career and playing in 53 games. He averaged 7.2 points per game in 21 games in 2022-23 but saw his minutes fall from 29.2 to 17.6 this season and scored just 4.0 PPG. He entered the transfer portal on April 30, less than two days before it closed.

GREENWICH, Conn. — It is hours before classes begin and the sun is starting to cast light on the Brunswick School campus, which sits on the New York border. The early morning quiet is interrupted by a car pulling into the parking lot adjacent to the football field. Soon another one rolls in and, within 20 minutes, the calm of a cool morning is replaced by a stream of cars filled with high school coaches.

Across the nation, large companies like UPS and Walgreens have been closing distribution centers. Florida hasn't been immune to some of these types of distribution closures.
