Eagles Conclude Series with Condors May 7, 2021
The Colorado Eagles will wrap up their two-game series against the Bakersfield Condors on Friday. It is the final game of the four-game, regular-season series between the two teams and the second of the three-game road trip for Colorado.
Eagles forward Sheldon Dries would net the game’s first goal, but back-to-back tallies for Bakersfield would allow the Condors to rally for a 2-1 victory over Colorado on Wednesday. The Eagles were held to a season-low 20 shots in the contest, as Colorado has now dropped each of its last four games. Adam Werner was solid in net for the Eagles, making 25 saves on 27 shots in the loss.

Subscriber only PREPARING for his next major mission, record-breaking athlete Jude Thomas will represent his club and city with additional pride. Having just added an Australian open 3km silver medal and another under-20 national record to his sensational achievements, Thomas plans to continue competing in a specially created racing singlet. The singlet was custom made by Pete Wyman from Bit Hit, to replicate what Ipswich and District Athletic Club (IDAC) competitors wore from the early 1980s into the 1990s. I really like that singlet, Thomas said, displaying his sense of history and tradition. Ipswich athletes Ben Thomas (left) and Jude Thomas (not related) model the traditional club racing singlets created by Pete Wyman from Big Hit.
A dead man, an envelope stuffed with cash and Russian amateur boxing
Steve Bunce tells the story of an envelope stuffed with cash, a bath stuffed with a dead man and the Russian amateur boxing connection
IT is hard to tell where this story starts or ends and that is not unusual when I pull a few facts together. There was an envelope stuffed with a $1,000 in Havana, a bath stuffed with a dead man on Tchaikovsky Street in Moscow and a big lump swearing at me on the Turkish coast. They are probably all connected to Russian amateur boxing, perhaps the coldest of Cold War agencies.
