Blue Jackets

The Columbus Blue Jackets have signed veteran goaltender Cam Talbot to a one-year, $950,000 contract for this season.

Buckeyes

After beating Delaware 4-3 in a shootout Friday, the Ohio State field hockey team blanked Cornell 2-0 on Sunday to improve its record to 4-2.

Buckeyes

Ohio State football led 20-3 at halftime Saturday, but Texas scored three touchdowns in the fourth quarter to come away with a 24-23 victory.
