SAN FRANCISCO -- Kelsey Plum is putting it all behind her: the accolades and everything she accomplished in a record-setting junior season that included Washingtons Final Four run.Im just going to be blunt: Im over it. Moved on, Plum, the Huskies all-time leading scorer, said Thursday at Pac-12 media day. Im working on what I can get better at as a player, as a leader, as a person.Plum led the conference in scoring last season and ranked fourth in the nation averaging 25.9 points, and she soon will become the Pac-12s career scoring leader, too.Doing home visits while out recruiting, Huskies coach Mike Neighbors had been wearing his Final Four ring. Plum asked him to stop, to take it off -- and he wont wear it again, either.Its time to move on, he said. There hasnt been one second spent on focusing back.They all know this conference is too good to count on anything going the way it did the previous year.This conference is unbelievable, Oregon State coach Scott Rueck said.Washington is picked to finish third in a preseason poll by the Pac-12 coaches in a dominant conference that sent four teams to the Sweet Sixteen for the first time. UCLA was chosen to win the league for the first time since 2000, with Stanford second.The Bruins, who had the nations top recruiting class two years ago, received eight first-place votes and 116 points. Coach Cori Close said I believe in this group, and she has the team and talent to play for a national championship if all goes right.Its a great honor but were not really focused on that, UCLA guard Jordin Canada said. This year, our theme is grit, having that gritty sense about us, just being confident.Stanford had the other two first-place votes. Hall of Fame coach Tara VanDerveer will be eager to welcome back senior Karlie Samuelson, who fractured her left, non-shooting wrist three weeks ago and will be in a cast for another week.We could be really good, VanDerveer said. I feel were way ahead of last year at this time in terms of understanding our team.Arizona State and Oregon State, who shared the regular-season title last season, are predicted to go fourth and fifth, respectively.I expect every single game this year in the Pac-12 Conference to be competitive. Thats just how much depth we have, USC coach Cynthia Cooper-Dyke said.Cal is selected sixth, followed by Oregon, Utah, USC, Washington State, Colorado and Arizona.The balance across the board made for difficult choices on the poll.Weve always been good, but nobody knew it. Now were even better and people know it, 20th-year Arizona State coach Charli Turner Thorne said. So its really been helpful in terms of recruiting.Commissioner Larry Scott said the Pac-12 is in discussions about continuing a commitment with its partners in China to have a mens team open the season there, as Stanford will do against Harvard on Nov. 11 in Shanghai. Washington opened against Texas in China last year.We have had womens basketball teams go over before, but not for regular-season opening games, Scott said. Were actually in discussions right now with our partners over there about possible continuation, extension of our relationship, and an expansion of it. Nike Shox Clearance . -- On the field, it was business as usual for Jameis Winston and No. Nike Shox Outlet . U.S. District Judge Lorna G. Schofield in Manhattan agreed that lawyers on both sides could make their formal requests by Nov. 8. A hearing is scheduled for a day earlier. Jordan Siev, a lawyer for Rodriguez, wrote in a joint letter to the judge from lawyers on both sides that MLB lawyers planned to ask that the lawsuit be dismissed. http://www.csidusa.com/air-zoom-pegasus-34-77/ . From filmmaker Nanette Burstein (On the Ropes), The Price of Gold revisits the saga that rocked the figure skating world ahead of the 1994 Lillehammer Olympic Winter Games: the assault on Nancy Kerrigan, and the plot that led its way back to her rival Tonya Harding. Nike Shox Shoes Outlet . Despite the cost, effort and an improved steroid test, its possible that very few -- if any -- positives will be detected, Dr. Richard Budgett told The Associated Press in an interview. "We just dont know what the results from Torino will be," Budgett said. Nike Shox Nz White .C. -- Calgarys Kevin Koe did it the hard way again. EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- When people start talking about the success of the New York Giants defense, the names of Olivier Vernon, Janoris Jenkins, Damon Harrison, Jonathan Casillas and Landon Collins get mentioned frequently.One name that rarely gets mentioned is Brad Wing, a guy who is never on the field with the defense.Wingy is the Giants punter. He has been good all year, and absolutely in the zone in recent weeks. The 25-year-old Australian who played as LSU was named the NFC special teams player of the week after punting nine times last weekend for averages of 43.2 yards gross and 42.9 net. Five of his kicks were downed inside the 20-yard line. Dallas gained three yards on three punt returns.For the season, Wing is ninth in the NFL with a 46.5 gross average, and 10th with a 41-yard net.I think a lot of it is rhythm and timing, Wing said of his punting. Its getting into a zone and getting into a groove. Its always a little tougher to get into that zone in these colder months and we are doing a good job of that.Wing is quick to point out his success is more than him. Its Zak DeOssie making the snaps. Its Dwayne Harris covering his punts, including two that he downed at the Cowboys 3-yard line, the last on Dallas final drive in the 10-7 win.Statistically, Wing is averaging 1.5 yards more on his gross and more than two yards more on his net.He doesnt think that has anything to do with changes in his story. Its just the level of confidence has risen and being around these guys another year that just builds a relationship with these guys, he said.One thing that is obvious is that Wing has become more of a directional punter. He spent the offseason working on it, and few balls, if any, are kicked down the middle of the field.The third-year punter who spent his first season witth the Steelers also is getting better with his boomerang punt.dddddddddddd Its an old-fashioned pouch punt that seems to check near the goal line like a golf ball on the green when it hits right.That punt is more like a change-up punt, Wing said. There is no real way you can dictate the bounce, exactly how you want it to go. That punt just makes it a little more difficult for the returner to catch it in games with rain or wing when its already difficult to catch the ball. Thats a punt where you are trying to steal a possession.Giants coach Ben McAdoo has started calling Wing a weapon.We have seen the talent over the last two years, even when he was with Pittsburgh, DeOssie said. He is coming into his own, realizing how good he can be. He is executing on the field, doing a fantastic job.Wing says his only focus is punting well on Sunday against the Lions, who like the Giants have a 9-4 record with three weeks left in the regular season.Thats why you cant look past any game other than the one ahead of you, Wing said. We have a big one this weekend. They are coming in and they are hot. Its two very good teams playing December.Game notes G Justin Pugh appears ready to return to the lineup after missing five games with a knee injury. While he was limited in practice Friday, he was not listed as either questionable or doubtful. ... S Nat Berhe (concussion), RB Shane Vereen (concussion) and LB Keenan Robinson (shoulder) are questionable. ... DeOssie (hamstring), DT Johnathan Hankins (shoulder), LB Mark Herzlich (concussion) and DE Owa Odighizuwa (knee) probably will play.---For more NFL coverage: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Wholesale Jerseys 2019 Stitched Jerseys China Jerseys Wholesale Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic NFL Jerseys Cheap Cheap Jerseys NFL Jerseys From China ' ' '
