The Coyotes signed first-round pick Jakob Chychrun to an entry-level contract.

Read the pages at digitaledition.baltimoresun.com. By Dan Gelston Associated Press LONG POND, PA. -Kyle Busch Motorsports is bursting at the seams with NASCAR trophies. Kyle Busch's shop in Mooresville, N.C., is undergoing renovations, and until they are complete, his trophies have nowhere to go.

Workers can't set foot in the store, offices or the upstairs hall without tripping over trophies. Busch, 31, has an entire case dedicated to trophies from Bristol Motor Speedway alone and every winner's flag from his 38 career Sprint Cup victories is framed in the upstairs hallway. He's won at every Cup track from Darlington to Daytona, from Bristol to the Brickyard. Every track but Charlotte Motor Speedway and Pocono Raceway. Busch can knock Pocono off the list today, though he has only four career top-five finishes in 23 starts at the 212-mile tri-oval.

Busch starts 16th in the No. 18 Toyota, in the same row as elder brother Kurt, who won at Pocono in June. Kyle Busch's best shot at winning at Pocono came last August, but he lost the lead on the last lap when his car ran out of fuel. His average Pocono finish is 19th. "You've got to have everything fall into place and the stars align, and it just hasn't quite happened here yet," Busch said.

Busch, tied with Brad Keselowsld with four wins this season, is coming off a historic weekend at Indianapolis Motor Speedway. He won his second straight Brickyard 400 in dominant form, leading a record 149 of 170 laps. Coupled with an Xfinity Series victory a day earlier, Busch became the first NASCAR driver to win both poles and both races on the same weekend. "It certainly is the best way to come to Pocono being able to race the way we did last week," Busch said. Only 31, the 2015 Sprint Cup champion's best days still seem ahead.

Busch has 166 career wins among NASCAR's top three divisions: Sprint Cup (38), Xfinity (83) and Truck (45). With wins this season at Martinsville Speedway and Kansas Speedway, he has won races at 21 of the 23 active Cup tracks. He has multiple victories at 11 of 21 tracks. His Indy win gave him 34 career wins at Joe Gibbs Racing, topping Tony Stewart for most on the career list. But there is one trophy that won't be found at KBM.

His 2015 Cup championship trophy is at his home, surrounded by all the hardware that came out of his leg and foot after his accident last year at Daytona He's on the hunt for a champagne bottle from his championship -clinching victory at Homestead to fill with screws once inside his body. He broke his right leg and left foot when he crashed into a wall in an Xfinity Series race the day before the Daytona 500. He missed 11 Cup races and needed a waiver from NASCAR to qualify for the Chase. Now he's intent on joining the list of drivers Richard Petty, Jimmie Johnson and Dale Earnhardt among them who have won consecutive championships. "Kyle, from the second day he was out of surgery, he has been on a mission," Joe Gibbs said.

NOTE: Dale Earnhardt Jr. will miss his third straight race today. He says his concussion-like symptoms haven't changed and his return does not appear imminent Jeff Gordon, who came out of retirement to drive for Earnhardt last week at Indianapolis, will drive the No. 88 car again at Pocono. YOUTH SOCCER Two Md.

boys teams reach national finals Thomas Walker scored in the 77th minute to help Pipeline Black defeat Maryland rival and defending national champion Baltimore Celtic 98 99, 1-0, on Saturday in Frisco, Texas, to advance to the Under-17 boys final at the U.S. Youth Soccer National Championships. Pipeline will play for the title today against Loudoun 98 Red of Virginia, which defeated Seattle United 98 Copa of Washington on penalty kicks after a scoreless overtime and a 1-1 tie in regulation. The final will be a rematch of the 2016 Region I final, in which Pipeline defeated Loudoun, 4-L In Under-14 boys, Baltimore Darby 0102 is headed back to the final for a second straight year after defeating Raiders City of Illinois, 2-1. Age-group leading goal scorer Theodore Ndje scored in the 14th minute and Richard Nichols made it 2-0 in the 33rd.

The Raiders scored in the 35th minute. Darby will face Valparaiso United FC 02 JG of Arizona, which won, 3-2, in overtime against LVSA 02 Red of Nevada. The title match is today. CAL RIPKEN WORLD SERIES Bel Air overwhelmed by 10-run 5th inning, 13-8 Maryland state champion Bel Air lost its first game of the Cal Ripken World Series, falling, 13-8, to Southwest champ Florence, at Cal Yard in Aberdeen. Bel Air scored single runs in the first four innings, then added four in the fifth inning for an 8-3 lead, but six errors contributed to a nightmarish 10-run bottom of the inning.

"It's hard to look back; I still don't even know how it happened," Bel Air manager Darrell Barrett said. "We're up 8-3 going into that inning, they only had one ball out of the infield on that one hit that was long, when they hit that go-ahead, but you know, that's 12U baseball." Bel Air is back in action today at 12:30 p.m. against Midwest Plains champ Southeastern Denver, Colo. MEN'S BASKETBALL City of Gods loses again in Tournament semis For the second straightyear, Maryland-based City of Gods lost to Overseas Elite in the semifinals of The Basketball Tournament, falling to the winner-take-all event's defending champions, 103-92, Saturday at Fordham's Rose Hill Gymnasium in New York. Former Arizona guard Kyle Fogg scored a tournament-record 42 points to lead Overseas Elite into Tuesday night's final against Team Colorado.

Fogg helped erase al5-point first-half deficit to tie the game at halftime, then helped his team lead by as many as 21 in the second half. The winner of the tournament will take $2 million in prize money, double last year's payoff.
