TODAY'S HEADLINES



Ben Roethlisberger's accuser has dropped out of college, according to TMZ.

The 20-year-old woman dropped out of Georgia College and State University over the weekend and went back to her family's home outside Atlanta. [TMZ.com]

Tim Benz has this shot from the ladies room of one of the bars Roethlisberger visited while in Milledgeville. Glad to see they're taking the allegations so seriously in Milledgeville. [WXDX.com/Tim Benz]



Mark Madden has released his second edition of "Madden's Media Madness". Again, a certain Post-Gazette veteran should duck for cover. [WXDX.com]

The Pittsburgh Pirates were one-hit in a 6-1 loss to the New York Yankees yesterday. Steve Pearce was one of only three Buccos to merely reach base, with the team's lone hit. Anyone starting to see a trend with the offense here? [PittsburghPirates.com]

Club Cambria is the name of a new, exclusive club within the walls of PNC Park. It will be will be situated on the ballpark's suite level, along the third base line, and feature a view of the city skyline. For an 81-game schedule, four seats in row 'A' will run you a cool $48,600. Hey, if you're going to watch a team rebuild, it might as well be in style. [Trib]



Ashton Gibbs was named the Most Improved Player in the Big East this season by a vote held by the league's 16 coaches. Gibbs becomes the sixth Panther to win the award in the last 11 years, joining Ricardo Greer (1999-00), Brandin Knight (2001-02), Carl Krauser (2003-04), Aaron Gray (2005-06) and Sam Young (2007-08). And that, my friends, is what's known as "coaching up". [PittsburghPanthers.com]

CB Leigh Bodden, a free agent who caught the Steelers' eye, is sticking with New England. Bodden was a Duquesne University product and had five interceptions last season. [NFL.com]

Pascal Dupuis is creating a problem for the Penguins, the problem being that he's on the cusp of 20 goals and might be on the fourth line. I expect no pity parties from the rest of the league. [Trib]
