Vets go from Super Bowl to unemployed
Less than three weeks after appearing in the Super Bowl, Steve Atwater and Cornelius Bennett were released by their NFL teams. Atwater, a 32-year-old safety with five Super Bowls, was cut to free salary cap room as Denver signed cornerback Dale Carter to a six-year pact. Carter, a No. 1 pick in 1992, is slated to start opposite Ray Crockett. The Broncos also added tackle Tony Berti on a one-year $400,000 deal. Bennett, a five-time Pro Bowler and former Bills linebacker, faced release as Atlanta seeks room for Keith Brooking and to clear cap space.

Verhoff seals Elyria win with late foul shots
Junior guards Jessy Verhoff and Jen Howser fueled a fourth quarter rally for Elyria as Verhoff iced the game with 5.7 seconds left after a backdoor layup tied it at 39. Howser added four straight free throws in the final period to give Elyria a 35-33 cushion. Westlake fought back, but Elyria’s foul trouble hampered them, with two starters fouling out and others in foul trouble. Swanson and Derenburger led Westlake’s late scoring, but Elyria held on for the sectional win and a matchup with John Marshall Amherst next Thursday.
