Thanks to Duke’s four-day run through the ACC tournament, the topic du jour on this Selection Sunday is whether the 27-8 Blue Devils will now garner a No. 1 seed that would have seemed unfathomable less than a week ago. Presumably to the chagrin of many of you, my hunch is they will. Allow me to explain. Villanova (31-3) and Kansas (28-4) are the no-brainer first two No. 1s. I…

State high school athletic associations are never terribly popular, as no rule-making and rule-enforcing authority tends to be. But in Georgia has carried this froth to a new level.

LAS VEGAS — NASCAR and moonshine have long had an intertwined relationship, so it should come as no great surprise that Brendan Gaughan, who is sort of a throwback driver, has found a profitable way to keep the tradition going.

The 57-year-old replaced Bob Howden as the chairman last month but was a nonexecutive director on British Cycling’s board from April 2014 onwards. Last week a draft review produced by Annamarie Phelps found an internal investigation into the track…
