NEW WILIMINGTON, Pa. — Westminster College’s volleyball team beat Grove City 25-19, 25-22, 25-21 on Wednesday to give Titan head coach Tammy Swearingen her 700th career win.
The Columbiana High School graduate is 700-401 in her career at Westminster.

Jaguars and Browns trade starting cornerbacks
SONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Jacksonville and Cleveland swapped starting cornerbacks Wednesday night, with Tyson Campbell going to the Browns and Greg Newsome heading to the Jaguars, a person familiar with the trade said.
The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the deal had not been formally announced. ESPN and NFL Network first reported the swap.
The teams also exchanged late-round draft picks in 2026, with Jacksonville getting a sixth-rounder from Cleveland and the Browns getting a seventh-rounder from the Jaguars.
Jacksonville signed Campbell to a four-year, $76.5 million extension last year that included $54.4 million guaranteed. But the second-round pick in the 2021 NFL draft never fit the team’s new defensive scheme and struggled in coverage with his back to the ball.
Newsome, the 26th overall pick in 2021, is in the final year of a contract that pays him $13.4 million.
It’s the latest trade for the Browns, who sent quarterback Joe Flacco to Cincinnati a day earlier.
Flacco will start for Bengals
CINCINNATI (AP) — Coach Zac Taylor immediately welcomed Joe Flacco when he connected with him over the phone after the Cincinnati Bengals acquired the veteran quarterback from the Cleveland Browns on Tuesday.
The second thing was to tell Flacco that he’d be starting on Sunday against the Green Bay Packers.
“I’ve only met him once before he came here, but I know his game,” Taylor said Wednesday after announcing Flacco would start. “Played against him I don’t know many times, a lot of times. Very comfortable with his style, concepts he’s been good at, things that fit us that we do. The terminology there is a lot of carryover, more so than what I would have anticipated, so feel like we can get him up to speed quickly.”
