Belhaven baseball finds new home at Trustmark Park
SUMMARY: The Belhaven baseball team will play its upcoming season at Trustmark Park in Pearl, a professional stadium that previously hosted the Mississippi Braves. This arrangement follows multiple venue changes since 2020, most recently at Smith-Wills Stadium. Trustmark Park will accommodate both Belhaven and the Mississippi Mud Monsters, who now share the field. Belhaven, competing in Division III, has enjoyed five consecutive winning seasons despite not having a stadium on campus. The Blazers will kick off their season with a home series against Mount Saint Mary on February 14, and will practice at Trustmark Park leading up to their season.

NCAA eliminates spring transfer period for football
SUMMARY: The NCAA has approved eliminating the spring transfer period for FBS and FCS college football players, following a recommendation to modify the recruiting calendar. The new system introduces a single 10-day transfer portal window from January 2-11 for undergraduate and postgraduate players, replacing the current 20-day December window and 10-day April window. Coaches can still enter the portal within 30 days if their coach leaves or is fired. Players in postseason games after January 7 have a five-day transfer window post-final game. The rule aims to reduce leverage use for NIL deals and takes effect in the upcoming cycle, despite some coaching concerns.

Rep. Bennie Thompson calling on federal investigation into Delta State student’s death
SUMMARY: Congressman Bennie Thompson has called for a federal investigation into the death of Demartravion “Trey” Reed, a Black student found hanging on Delta State University’s campus.

Reed’s family plans an independent autopsy and demands transparency, expressing concerns over the university’s handling and communication. Delta State officials say they remain in contact with the family and strive not to compromise the investigation. The case echoes Mississippi’s troubled history of racial violence, prompting social media speculation despite official statements. Further updates are expected.
