RIO DE JANEIRO -- There are a few Rio finales in the pool, while track and field gets underway. Here are Fridays highlights:Mens 100 fly final, 10:12 p.m. ET; Womens 800 free final, 10:20 p.m. ET: Michael Phelps will swim in his final individual race of the Rio Olympics, going for his fourth straight gold medal in the 100-meter butterfly and his fifth gold of the Rio Olympics after winning the 200 IM on Thursday night. On the womens side, Katie Ledecky is pretty much a lock to win the 800 freestyle in her final swim in Rio. She already set the Olympic record in prelims with her eighth-fastest time and has the 12 fastest times by anyone in the event. She could become the second swimmer to win the 200, 400 and 800 freestyle events in the same Olympics (Debbie Meyer did it in 1968) and the third American woman to win four golds at a single Games (Missy Franklin in 2012, Amy Van Dyken in 1996).Complete swimming coverageUSWNT vs. Sweden, noon ET: The U.S. women hope to rebound from a shaky draw against Colombia in their last group-play match in Fridays quarterfinal. The Americans have reached all five previous Olympic finals, winning four gold medals, including the past two. The U.S. is winless in three games against Sweden since former U.S. coach Pia Sundhage took the Sweden job in late 2012 (she took the post after leading the USWNT to gold in London). That includes a draw in the 2015 Womens World Cup group stage and a loss in the 2011 WWC group stage.Complete soccer coverageU.S. women vs. Canada, 2:30 p.m. ET; U.S. men vs. Serbia, 6 p.m. ET: Both American teams return to the court Friday. The U.S. men beat Serbia by 37 points in the 2014 World Cup championship game, while the U.S. women beat Canada by 40 points in a pre-Olympic exhibition game last month. Breanna Stewart will see a familiar face on the other side of the court, as she faces Canadian and former UConn teammate Kia Nurse.Complete basketball coveragePreliminary action, coverage begins 8:30 a.m. ET: The track and field competition begins Friday with three medal events (womens 10,000 meters, mens 20km race walk, womens shot put) and preliminary heats in the womens 100 and mens 400. In the 100, there are a handful of sprinters to watch: Elaine Thompson of Jamaica, teammate and defending two-time Olympic champion Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce, Murielle Ahoure of the Ivory Coast and Americans Tianna Bartoletta, Tori Bowie and English Gardner.Complete track and field coverageTournament continues, coverage begins 11 a.m. ET: Rafael Nadal faces Thomaz Bellucci of Brazil before he returns to the court for the gold-medal mens doubles match with teammate Marc Lopez as they face Romanias Florin Mergea and Horia Tecau.

Nike Air Max 98 Rouge .Y. -- Syracuse has turned up the defence at the right time all season, and when High Point threatened to pull off a monumental upset the second-ranked Orange did what they do best with their quick hands and savvy play. COLUMBIA, S.C. -- Sindarius Thornwell doesnt feel like hes starting from zero, despite a South Carolina roster filled with newcomers.Thornwell, a senior, scored 20 points including four 3-pointers to lead the Gamecocks to an 81-49 victory over Holy Cross on Sunday night.Thornwell comes off a 25-win season with South Carolina that featured a starting lineup of upperclassmen. This time, the Gamecocks have seven first-time players to mix into games. So far, so good, Thornwell says.Its been good, he said. Everybody came in focused.South Carolina played a dozen people, 10 of them getting 10 minutes or more. Plan on it being the norm this season, according to South Carolina coach Frank Martin. This team has depth like I havent had since Ive been here, he said.That showed against Holy Cross (0-1), which was eventually worn down by South Carolinas height and athleticism.The Crusaders, who played in the NCAA Tournament last March, used its Princeton-style offense -- coach Bill Carmody used to coach at the Ivy League school -- of cuts and backdoor layups to get within 29-24 on Matt Huseks basket with 7:09 left in the half. Thats when the Gamecocks took off on a 15-5 run over the next six minutes to push its lead to 44-29. Thornwell opened the surge with a basket and closed it with a 3-pointer.We needed that momentum shift, Gamecocks guard PJ Dozier said.The Crusaders never got closer than 12 points the rest of the way.I dont like losing by 30, Carmody said. Its hard to sit here and call it part of process. Our guys hurt after losing this one.Dozier had 15 points for South Carolina, which opened 2-0 for a second straight season and the third time in Martins five years.Robert Champion led Holy Cross with 18 points.BIG PICTUREHoly Cross stunned college basketball last March, winning the Patriot League tournament and earning an automatic NCAA bid despite a 10-19 regular season. The Crusaders went on to a First Four matchup win over Southern for the schhools first Big Dance win since 1953.dddddddddddd Holy Cross will try and build on that success with five of their top six scorers returning from a year ago.South Carolina looked athletic and active in putting away Holy Cross over the final 30 minutes. The trick for coach Frank Martin will be maintaining that level while blending the young players into the mix. Theyll get that chance the next 10 days with three more games, all at home.FELDER DEBUTSouth Carolina guard Rakym Felder saw his first college action, less than a month after he was arrested for assault among other charges. Felder played 14 minutes and finished with eight points, swishing both of his three-point attempts. Martin said he had talked with athletic director Ray Tanner, vouching for Felders character. Ra Felder played because its my decision that he has accepted everything that came his way for his mistake, Martin said.Hes a beautiful kid, not a good kid, a beautiful kid, Martin continued.CHANGING STYLESMartin was concerned that his team would not make the necessary defensive adjustments in going from Louisiana Techs more up-tempo offense to Holy Cross deliberate attack. He neednt have worried. The Gamecocks held Holy Cross under 40-percent shooting for the game and to just 25 percent (5 of 20) from behind the arc.HOT SHOOTINGThe Gamecocks shot 58.7 percent, going 27 of 46 from the field. That touch continued from way outside and at the line: South Carolina made 12 of its 24 3-pointers and 15 of 16 foul shots.UP NEXTHoly Cross travels to play its only other regular-season Power 5 opponent at Syracuse on Tuesday night.South Carolina continues its five-game home stretch to start the season, facing Monmouth on Tuesday night.---Follow Pete Iacobelli at http://twitter.com/PIacobellil-AP---More AP college basketball: http://collegebasketball.ap.org Jerseys NFL Cheap Cheap Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys Wholesale Jerseys NFL Cheap Cheap Jerseys Jerseys Wholesale Cheap NFL Jerseys Wholesale ' ' '
