The trial of baseball great Roger Clemens is in its sixth week. He stands accused of lying to Congress, stemming from his sworn testimony in 2008 that he had never used steroids. Clemens’ blazing speed on the mound earned him the nickname, “The Rocket.” He won baseball’s coveted Cy Young award seven times. Clemens attributes his success to hard work. A former strength coach claims he injected the all-star with steroids or the human growth hormone.

We chatted with members of the UWM baseball team during batting practice, to ask how they view the alleged use of steroids in their sport.

Hagen Helps Bayern Munich To German Cup Title

Former Panther Sarah Hagen scored the game-winner and assisted on an insurance goal to help Bayern Munich to a 2-0 victory over FFC Frankfurt in the German Cup final Saturday in Cologne.
Hagen's converted a header off a corner kick in the 65th minute to break a scoreless draw. She also set up Ivana Rudelic in the 90th minute by winning a header in the midfield and putting Rudelic 1v1 with the keeper.
The Cup title is Munich's first and came against a side in FFC Frankfurt that has won the cup 13 times since its inception in 1981.
See highlights of the match here. There is a photo gallery here and a post-game interview with Hagen below.
The Cup win continues a strong season for Hagen and Bayern Munich. Hagen signed a two-year contract extension with the club, which is in sixth place in the Frauen Bundesliga. She has scored a pair of goals during league play and added four goals in two cup games. She set Munich through to the finals with a hat trick in the semifinals last month.
Hagen was also one of three former Panthers plying their trades in professional leagues that we featured at uwmpanthers.com last week.
