Chicago sports fans have plenty to cheer about this week, and ABC7 Sports Overtime with Dionne Miller is breaking it all down. Both the White Sox and Cubs are climbing the standings, a welcome shift from their rough start just two weeks ago. Dionne spoke with ESPN baseball insider Jesse Rogers to uncover the "secret sauce" fueling success on both the South Side and North Side.
The Chicago Bears also took center stage after the NFL Draft. Dionne chatted with NFL Network reporter Stacey Dales about the team's new additions, diving into who called the shots on draft day—head coach Ben Johnson or general manager Ryan Poles. The debate adds an extra layer of intrigue as the Bears build for the future.
Switching to the hardcourt, the Chicago Sky held their media day, and Dionne was on the scene. Superstar guard Skylar Diggins-Owens shared her excitement about joining the franchise and discussed how she plans to mentor younger players as they adjust to the WNBA's intensity, all while keeping the game fun.
Finally, Northwestern's lacrosse team is making waves. The Wildcats just clinched the Big Ten Tournament title, and now they've got their sights set on the NCAA championship. These ladies are ready to defend their legacy and bring home more hardware.
