High School Soccer scores from Tuesday

Girls – Beckman Catholic 5, Western Dubuque 0

Boys – Beckman Catholic 5, Western Dubuque 1

NFL owners approved a variety of rule changes Tuesday, including a modification of the dynamic kickoff and a tweak to regular-season overtime. The touchback spot on kickoffs will be moved from the 30 to the 35-yard line as the league looks to increase kick return attempts. For regular season overtime, both teams will now get a possession even if the first team to receive the ball scores an offensive touchdown. The overtime period will be 10 minutes. Owners also approved proposals to expand the league's replay-assist. The on-site replay official will be permitted to reverse flags that are thrown for hits to defenseless players, along with fouls for face mask, horse collar, tripping and running into/roughing the kicker. The replay official will not be permitted to call a penalty for a play in which no flag was thrown. In other action, owners tabled a vote on the proposal presented by Green Back to ban the “tush push” to allow time for more discussion on that play.
