Jim Larrañaga, Lon Kruger, Fran Dunphy and Dianne Nolan are this year's recipients of the Joe Lapchick Character Award. This is the 16th year the award will be presented to those who have shown the character traits of Lapchick, who coached at St. John's and with the New York Knicks. The quartet will be honored at a luncheon on Sept. 24 in New York. Larrañaga has spent the last 53 years coaching in college since he got his start as an assistant at Davidson College in 1971.

Roger Penske has suspended the president of Team Penske and three others for two races for their roles in the cheating scandal that has rocked IndyCar. Tim Cindric oversees Team Penske's operations and is the strategist for Indy 500 defending champion Josef Newgarden. The push-to-pass scandal dates to the season-opener in March, though the illegal software used by three Team Penske cars wasn't discovered until last month. The suspensions include this week's road race at Indianapolis and the Indianapolis 500 at the end of the month.
