Senior pitcher Josh Pettitte threw a no-hitter for Deer Park — Twitter

Andy Pettitte has won five World Series rings. He’s a three-time All-Star and has even won the American League Championship Series MVP. With 245 career victories, there are very few things that Andy Pettitte hasn’t accomplished. Yet Pettitte’s resume does have one glaring hole: He has never thrown a no-hitter.

After Friday, Pettitte still hasn’t thrown a no-hitter … but now someone in his house has.

As reported by Hall of Very Good, Josh Pettitte, Andy’s son, threw a no-hitter on Friday while pitching for his hometown Deer Park (Tx.) High. He struck out 10 and walked just one batter in a 9-0 rout of Boerne (Tx.) Champion High, traditionally a Texas state power.

The victory sparked an instant surge of Twitter recognition for the younger Pettitte, a senior starting pitcher who has signed a letter of intent to play at Baylor University in 2014.

Not long after Josh Pettitte sent out a modest tweet calling Friday’s contest, “What a fun game to be a part of,” the senior was inundated with congratulatory Tweets from his father’s Yankees teammates.

In total, the younger Pettitte received tweets from CC Sabathia, Phil Hughes and Joba Chamberlain, not to mention a brief shoutout during a Yankees YES Spring Training broadcast.

The student body of a high school in North Dakota is under fire after a photo emerged depicting three students wearing Ku Klux Klan hoods at a boys hockey game.

Three Red River students don Ku Klux Klan hoods during a state playoff game — Twitter

As first reported by the Grand Forks Herald, and followed upon by the Associated Press, three students at North Forks (N.D.) Red River High were captured on film wearing Ku Klux Klan hoods during a state semifinal boys hockey game against Fargo (N.D.) Davies High. The KKK hoods were apparently a misguided attempt to highlight the Red River fans’ whiteout at the University of North Dakota’s Ralph Englestad Arena.

Yet the actions were particularly caustic given the namesake of Davies High: Ronald Davies, a former U.S. judge based in Fargo who forced the governor of Arkansas to back down from his attempt to interfere with the famous integration of Little Rock schools.

Red River defeated Davies by a score of 2-0.

According to the Herald, Red River principal Kris Arason has already identified the teens who donned the hoods, reaching out to their parents and telling the press that “appropriate action is being taken.”

“We, as a school, are extremely disappointed with the behavior of these three students,” Arason said in a statement. “This behavior is not a representation of our school or student body.”

The photo in question first arose on social media thanks to University of North Dakota student Shane Schuster, who was attending the state semifinal game. Schuster snapped a photo of the teens and posted it on Twitter with the message, “I guess the red river highschoolers are racist?”

Earlier in February the world was introduced to Titus the Trick Shot Toddler. At the time, 2-year-old Titus was trucking his mini-hoop and soft mini basketballs all over the place, connecting on unlikely buckets from all across his parents' property.

Now he's taking his show on the road ... and embarrassing at least one major late night talk show host in the process.

As seen on Jimmy Kimmel Live, Titus routed Kimmel in a Pop-A-Shot style shootout on the set of the late night show on Thursday night. Given 60 seconds a piece, Kimmel connected on six free throws. Shooting from an equivalent distance in relation to a miniature hoop, Titus hit 10. It wasn't even close. And he absorbed an atrociously unsportsmanlike block from Kimmel in the process (all in good fun, of course).

The "Kimmel-Titus Challenge" was born out of Titus' struggles to hit shots on other talk shows following his big viral breakthrough (it's ok, little dude, everyone gets stage fright once in awhile). Clearly he felt more at home with the forgiving rims on Kimmel's set.

Naturally, everyone expected Titus to win. You don't bring a 2-year-old on to late night broadcast TV unless you have a pretty good idea that he will be emerge as the adorable, talented pony in whatever dog and pony show he's participating in.

Too often, impressive basketball shots are called a "full court buzzer beater." A shot in a game on Tuesday really was, just about literally.

As first noted by MaxPreps, Marion (Ill.) High forward Brant Hill connected on a buzzer beater from one baseline to the other at the end of the first quarter of a game against Salem (Ill.) High. Collecting a rebound of a missed Salem free throw, Hill had just enough time to launch a desperate heave toward the other bucket.

Incredibly, the ball went right through, swish and all.

The longest triple possible proved to be 3 of Hill's 16 points, all part of a dominant Marion performance in a 68-46 victory. Incredibly, the Springfield Republican actually undersold Hill's full-courter, calling it a three-quarter court basket when it was clearly much more than that.

Evidently the writer in attendance on Tuesday didn't go back and watch the game film before filing on deadline.

For his part, Marion coach Shane Hawkins told the Springfield Republican that he was proud of his team's effort, noting that if they continue to play that hard, "the next two or three weeks could be a lot of fun."

One of the most successful high school baseball coaches in Texas finds himself under fire, after briefly being deposed, thanks to a hidden camera video taken by his athletes showing him angrily berating them before a practice.

Port Neches-Grove baseball coach Mark Brevell briefly lost his job because of a rant against players — Beaumont EnterprisePort Neches-Grove baseball coach Mark Brevell briefly lost his job because of a rant against players — Beaumont Enterprise

As reported by The Big Lead, Port Neches-Grove (Tex.) High baseball coach Mark Brevell is back in the dugout at Port Neches as the Texas prep baseball season gets underway, even though he returns to action against the concerted efforts of his players.

Just before a preseason practice, Brevell entered the locker room and angrily lashed out at two of his players for not being ready to play. Unbeknownst to Brevell, one of those players was secretly videotaping his rant, with the subsequent product landing on YouTube shortly thereafter.

The video has since been removed from the social video site, but not before The Big Lead's Stephen Douglas took down a transcription of Brevell's comments.

"Are either one of y'all ever going to do anything I ever ask? Or are we going to go through this [expletive] [expletive] all year?

"What were y'all hoping? That practice was cancelled? Yeah,you were. One senior already told me. I ain't even going to practice with y'all today. Y'all want to go to practice? I'm going [expletive] home to spend time with my family. If you want to work, work. If you want to go home, go home. I couldn't even care less. Just be ready because there might be some things changing.

"I don't care who you are or what grade you're in. Things are going to change right now or I swear to God, I'll play ... I'llplay JV and Freshman teams and ill play with 22 Freshmen.

"I told Coach this morning that today was going to be a great day, a positive day. And the first thing that happen when I get here is ya'll dumb asses standing in the locker room talking, not even dressed."

Little was made in the local media about Brevell's antics, though the school acted quick to remove him from his position after word of his rant began to trickle out on a Port Neches-Groves online community. Yet the coach was apparently quietly reinstated for the start of the season, which officially kicked off on Tuesday.

History was made in Massachusetts when a girl won an individual state wrestling title for the first time in state history. Even more Danielle Coughlin’s individual victory set the stage for a team crown as well, landing the senior two state titles in one of her final meets.

As reported by the Boston Globe and Boston Herald, among other sources, North Andover (Mass.) High senior Danielle Coughlin captured the MIAA Division 2 state title in the 106-pound weight class when she knocked off Winchester (Mass.) High star Jordan Darby, 5-3, in the class’ final bout. According to the Globe, Coughlin dominated the match throughout a majority of its three periods and won convincingly, setting the stage for another state title for the wrestling powerhouse.

“Going into [the match], I knew it was up to me not just individually but for my team to come out as state champs,” Coughlin told the media after her historic victory. “Coach was counting on me to start things off.

“I had a little advantage; I’ve been in this atmosphere before. There’s a lot of pressure when yours is the only match going on and everyone is watching. Being familiar with the setting was an advantage.”

By the end of the meet, North Andover’s advantages were undeniable. The Scarlet Knights raced to victories in four more individual state title bouts, clinching a state crown behind Coughlin’s lead.

The official YouTube title of the video you see below is "World's Luckiest Basketball Shot." Prep Rally is tempted to say that they're not over-selling their feat.

What Prep Rally knows about the primary actors in the video above is about as much as everyone else does. According to Good Morning America they're teenagers from Connecticut -- Liam McCaffery and C.J. DeAngelis -- and they clearly spent an extraordinary amount of time attempting bizarre trick shots. Eventually, they hit the shot in this highlight clip, then celebrated with as much youthful exuberance as one would imagine.

The fact that they connected on the shot is pretty remarkable in itself. The space hopper use is unique, as is the three-bounce, off the house, through-the-hoop trajectory.

What is more odd is why the video seems to be picking up steam again online now. It was originally posted in May, but has been linked on multiple sites this week alone.

Redondo's Janel De Curtis walks toward her teammates after her penalty was saved in Redondo's shootout loss — The Daily Breeze

The official scoreline will always read 0-0. That makes the fact that 39 balls hit the back of the net in a girls soccer playoff match all the more remarkable.

As chronicled in the Torrance Daily Breeze, a California Interscholastic Federation Southern Section Division II playoff match saw Redondo (Cal.) Union High and Temecula (Cal.) Great Oak High play to a 0-0 tie through regulation, and overtime, necessitating a penalty kick shootout to determine which team would advance to the state quarterfinals. From there, things got loopy, with both teams connecting or missing on offsetting penalty attempts through 40 penalty kicks.

Finally Great Oak hit its 21^st attempt to take a 20-19 PK lead. Redondo’s Janel De Curtis walked up, stroked an attempt at goal and saw it gobbled up by Great Oak goalie Sarah Victor. The save ended up the game, and Redondo’s season, after a stunning 42 penalty kick attempts.

No video of the incredible penalty kick sequence has emerged as of yet, but you can see great still shots from the game in this Daily Breeze photo gallery.

"They were a great team to play against," Great Oak coach Alicia Brennan told the Daily Breeze. "Obviously, we were both evenly matched. It didn't look like any of our girls or theirs either were going to miss during the penalty kicks.

"We've gone to [penalty kicks] before, but nothing like this. It was crazy. Even the referees were like, `We haven't been this far either."'

The ridiculous penalty kick matchup comes almost exactly a year after a similarly ludicrous PK playoff game in California between two boys teams lasted 50 penalty kicks … and two days.
