Starc said. I was pretty chuffed for him, hes made it an Olympic final which is very, very special. Especially for a young bloke in his first Olympics, so Im very proud of the young fella.I briefly spoke to him before heading off to the game. Obviously hes very happy to be through to the next stage and Wednesday morning hell be up early again. Hopefully he can get on the podium and jump his best. Just to make an Olympic final is a special effort, especially for a 22-year-old in your first Olympic Games, so Im pretty chuffed for him.Plenty of Game of Thrones fans from around the world are also throwing their support behind the 22-year-old, all because of his name.GoT devotees have tweeted their support behind Brandon, with many joking about the characters poor fate.Athletics Australia has also started using the hashtag #HouseStarc in their posts about the high jumper, mimicking the popular use of #HouseStark by fans of the show.Brandon will compete in the High Jump final on Wednesday morning AEST.

Justin Jackson Jersey .ca! Hi Kerry, Its another day and here we are looking at another dubious hit to the head. In this case Blue Jackets forward Brandon Dubinsky elbowed Saku Koivu in the head about a second after he dished off the puck to a teammate, knocking him unconscious. http://www.magicbasketballprostore.com/kids-shaquille-o-neal-magic-jersey/ . Ibaka equaled a career high with 20 rebounds, adding four blocked shots and 15 points as the Thunder smothered the Milwaukee Bucks offence in a 92-79 victory Saturday night.

The 19-year-old Olsen played 34 games with the Kelowna Rockets of the WHL this season. In that time, hes recorded 17 goals and 17 assists with 36 penalty minutes. STILLWATER, Okla. -- A year ago, accomplished Oklahoma State guard Phil Forte called then-incoming freshman Jawun Evans the best player on the team.It took a while, but Evans proved him right.Evans began the season deferring to others, but the point guard eventually learned what he could do, became more assertive and averaged 12.9 points and 4.9 assists before missing the final nine games with a shoulder injury. He scored 42 points in a loss to Oklahoma and he led the Cowboys with 22 points, six rebounds, eight assists and two steals in an upset win at home over No. 3 Kansas. The Big 12 freshman of the year has healed, and hes a preseason all-conference pick who is expected to help the Cowboys improve on last seasons 12-20 campaign.When new coach Brad Underwood got his first look at Evans after arriving from Stephen F. Austin, he was floored.He is very gifted in the fact that he sees plays before they happen, and there are not a lot of people who do that, Underwood said. And Jawun has an uncanny ability, and I use a cliche, `Good players make themselves better, great players make their team better. Jawun falls into that category.Evans will have a key playmaker back in Forte, who was lost for most of last season with an elbow injury. Forte averaged 15 points and was a third-team All-Big 12 pick as a junior in 2014-15. He ranks fourth in school history with 244 career 3-pointers.Hes one of those guys that nobodys really talking about, and they should be, Underwood said.Here are some things to watch this season:UNDERWOOD WINSUnderwood led Stephen F. Austin to a win over West Virginia in the NCAA Tournament last season. He went 89-14 in his three years there, tied with Brad Stevens for the most wins byy a head coach in his first three seasons at an NCAA school.ddddddddddddFORTES AGEForte, a 23-year-old senior, gets plenty of grief for his elder statesman status. He couldnt believe some of his teammates didnt know who rapper Ludacris was when he visited campus. Underwood appreciates Fortes experience.Im the most blessed coach on the planet, Underwood said. When you walk in here trying to establish a culture and having a young man who in high school learned how to work hard, learned a passion for the game. And to have him here to teach our young players -- he deserves to have a good year.LEYTON HAMMONDSHammonds, a senior, is back after a breakout season in which he averaged 10.6 points and 5.1 rebounds per contest. He averaged 2.3 points two seasons ago and 1.5 points as a freshman.Leyton Hammonds (is) a senior who has proven it, has done it, has been successful and has tremendous leadership, Underwood said.HIGH EXPECTATIONSEddie Sutton led the Cowboys to Final Fours in 1995 and 2004, so the bar is sky high. Travis Ford was run out of town after he reached the NCAA Tournament five times in nine years, including three of his final four seasons.REMEMBERING COGERTyrek Coger, a forward, died this summer after a workout, and it was eventually found that he had an enlarged heart. The team is still dealing with it.Well never forget Ty, Underwood said. Thats one thing that will stay without team. We talk about family a lot. Everything we do, whether theres a patch or not, hes a part of every single thing we do, every single day.---Follow Cliff Brunt on Twitter (at)CliffBruntAP Cheap Adidas Hockey Jerseys Wholesale College Jerseys Cheap Nike Basketball Jerseys Cheap Football Jerseys Free Shipping Cheap Baseball Jerseys Cheap Jerseys Free Shipping Cheap Jerseys From China Wholesale Nike NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Wholesale Nike NBA Jerseys Cheap NHL Jerseys Authentic Cheap MLB Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Soccer Jerseys China Cheap NCAA Jerseys China Stitched NFL Jerseys Cheap Custom Jerseys China Cheap Basketball Jerseys Authentic NFL Jerseys China Cheap College Jerseys Wholesale Football Jerseys ' ' '
