The largest team at the Austin Race to Cure Sarcoma was the Aubrie Peña Legacy Foundation Team. They had over 150 members take part in honor of Aubrie Peña, who lost her battle with Sarcoma two years after her diagnosis in 2022.

Hugo Lloris sets mark with 5th straight shutout as LAFC draws Austin
AUSTIN, Texas — Hugo Lloris finished with two saves for Los Angeles FC in a record fifth straight shutout to begin a season, and Brad Stuver stopped the only shot he faced for Austin FC in a scoreless draw on Saturday night.
Lloris and LAFC (4-0-1) began the season with four shutout victories, just one of four teams in league history to accomplish the feat. His scoreless stretch of 450 minutes is the longest in league history to begin a season.
Lloris nearly surrendered his first goal of the season in the 63rd minute, but a Myrto Uzuni netter off a corner kick by Facundo Torres was disallowed after Ilie Sánchez was charged with a foul following a video review — and that led to a yellow card on Uzuni.
Neither keeper faced a shot on goal in a scoreless first half.
Austin (1-2-2) swept LAFC last year during the regular season but couldn’t get past the Western Conference stalwarts in the playoffs. Both of the club’s losses this season have come on the road.
LAFC eliminated Alajuelense on Tuesday to advance to the quarterfinals of the CONCACAF Champions Cup. The club is 7-0-2 so far through all competitions.
LAFC began the day tied with the Vancouver Whitecaps for first place in the hotly-contested West.
LAFC: Hosts Orlando City on April 4.

Austin soul food staple Hoover’s Cooking to close after nearly 30 years
AUSTIN, Texas — Austin’s east side culinary legend Hoover Alexander is retiring after 50 years, closing all services at his iconic restaurant Hoover’s Cooking on May 31.
While the Manor Road soul food spot is ending its sit down dining service, it will still book private events through the summer.
The restaurant blends Alexander’s culinary expertise in southern, Tex-Mex, cajun food and barbecue. The fifth-generation Texan and native Austinite first opened Hoover’s Cooking in 1998. His passion for farm-to-table cooking later led him to open a food trailer focused on fresh food and promoting urban gardens and balanced eating.
Hoover’s is hosting a Juneteenth week bash on June 15 to celebrate Alexander’s legacy.
