Kids whose families lacked a consistent address, migrating between shelters and friends’ couches, could sidestep standard residency requirements and remain at one school despite their transient lives. But for a growing number of Seattle athletes, the intent behind the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act has been turned upside down….

The “Little Giants” squad taught me that teamwork makes the dream work! It’s summertime, which means kids are out of school, the ice cream truck is constantly chugging around the block, and you may accidentally ingest a bottle’s worth of sunblock by September.

College football is around the corner, NFL training camps will open soon, and this weekend we have one of the best events in golf to keep us company. Life…

His father used to tell him that sitting in front of the computer, playing video games for hour after hour, was a waste of time. So Cody Altman didn’t quite know what to think when a college from halfway across the country called to offer him a scholarship — for playing video games. “Honestly,” he said, “I was skeptical.” The young man from Anaheim changed his mind when he learned…

The Seattle Reign’s win against their archrival early this month was the product of conditioning. And the singular talent of Megan Rapinoe. The U.S. women’s national soccer team star struck first with a 30-yard sprint that caught a Portland Thorns center back off guard, intercepting a lazy pass for a tap in goal. In the second half, Rapinoe, who just turned 32, outran a younger defender to get on the…
