On October 26, 2024, the death of Philadelphia Union goalkeeper Holden Trent was announced. He was just 25 years old.
Two years on, his fiancée, family, friends and teammates are ready to talk; to remember a man who "went through a battle every single day to be the person he was".
For more than two decades, Holden Trent defied debilitating medical conditions to reach professional status in the world's most competitive sport.
This is his story.

On a potentially historic Nashville SC season, how the squad was built and what's next:
“What we’ve learned is to take time to reflect and appreciate how special this is," Mike Jacobs said. "This is a tremendous mile marker but it is not the finish line.”

"Perhaps Nashville SC's greatest success in 2026 is giving the city a team that looks like them, plays like them, and brings them joy week in and week out."
Nashville SC are the 2026 Supporters' Shield winners, and they're bringing Music City together.

Congratulations to @NashvilleSC on winning the Supporters Shield. Easily the best team in the league all year long, thoroughly deserving of all the praise they are about to get. Go make history!

Nashville SC has been the model of consistency since joining MLS in 2020. One of the very best examples of executing an expansion build + evolving from that success
- Made the playoffs in 6 of 7 seasons
- Two trophies (2026 Shield, 2025 Open Cup)
- Squads have included an MVP (Hany Mukhtar) & Defender of the Year (Walker Zimmerman)
And would be surprised if BJ Callaghan (coach), Max Woledzi (DotY) & Brian Schwake (GKotY) aren’t at least finalists this year.

Beautiful day in Canada for @NashvilleSC to win a trophy.
We are live with pregame coverage in Montreal on the @1045TheZone app ➡️ NSC live stream.
With a win or draw, NSC can clinch the Supporter’s Shield and the 1 seed throughout the MLS Cup Playoffs.

One of the most cruel things I've ever heard an organization doing.
The Knicks' assistant coaches did not receive their championship rings during Tuesday's ceremony, despite being handed ring boxes, according to league sources.
Many longtime employees at Madison Square Garden will not receive rings at all, per team sources.
Those employees got their hopes up in late September, when they were sent a fake championship ring offer as part of a phishing test.
