NEW YORK -- Some Columbia University wrestlers will be suspended from the team for as long as the rest of the school year over lewd and racially insensitive text messages, but some teammates can keep competing, including in a state championship this weekend, the university announced Friday.Columbia wouldnt say how many wrestlers are barred from competing, citing educational privacy laws, and the team coach and assistant coaches didnt immediately respond to emails and phone calls seeking comment.The team apologized in a letter Thursday, calling the text messages inexcusable and saying members were prepared for repercussions.We could not be more remorseful for the harm that this situation has caused, the team wrote, according to a student-run blog that said it received the letter.The blog, Bwog.com, had published screengrabs of the crude text messages.The university had put all competition on hold Monday to investigate the texts, which the blog said were exchanged by seniors on the wrestling team.Some messages disparaged female students, expressed hope that someone would be sexually assaulted at a campus event and used anti-gay terms and slurs against black people, including while discussing the deadly police shooting of unarmed black teenager Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, in 2014.The blog redacted the senders identities, so it was unclear how many people sent or responded to them. But Columbias athletics department said in a statement Friday it determined only a distinct group of wrestlers was involved.Those responsible for the offensive statements are suspended from the team through the rest of the school year; some others are barred just through the rest of the semester, and those who werent involved can continue competing, the athletics department said. No wrestlers are suspended from their studies, just from the sport.The department said it recognized students have a right to express themselves, but the appalling messages dont fit behavior standards for Columbias student-athletes. The athletes code of conduct includes pledges to treat everyone with dignity and respect and not to do anything that might reflect poorly on themselves or the team.The wrestlers will work with an advocate for fighting discrimination in sports, the department said.The messages were revealed a week after Harvard University canceled the remainder of the season for its mens soccer team because of lewd comments about members of the womens soccer team.

Rising to MMAs A-list is an inexact science. It takes more than results -- just ask UFC flyweight champion?Demetrious Johnson.Wins matter, sure, but so does style. Dominance with an edge plus some cocktail of aggression, unpredictability and overt hunger are shared attributes that helped Conor McGregor, Jon Jones, Ronda Rousey and Anderson Silva transcend the sport.Standing at the velvet rope to that clubs entrance is UFC womens strawweight champion Joanna Jedrzejczyk (12-0), ESPN.coms No. 2 pound-for-pound female fighter in the world.I was super happy when I won the belt, the 29-year-old Jedrzejczyk said. But you know what happened like two minutes after? I went to the backstage medical check and photo shoot, and my friend was like, You did it! You did it! Why are you not happy?I was like, OK. It happened. I became world champion. But now I have even more to prove every single day than I had before.Jedrzejczyk defends her belt for a fourth time against Karolina Kowalkiewicz (10-0) at UFC 205 on Nov. 12. Its one of three title fights at Madison Square Garden, the promotions first venture into New York City.The countrywomen, who grew up 78 miles apart in Poland, met as amateurs in 2012. Jedrzejczyk won by rear-naked choke in the first round and made her pro debut 11 weeks later. She stressed that neither a common passport nor the previous in-cage encounter will have any bearing Nov. 12.The champion offered a vivid sequence in which she sees things playing out in Manhattan.I want a mix between my fight with [Jessica] Penne and the fight with Carla Esparza, Jedrzejczyk said. When she gets enough of my punches to her face, then shell try to take me down, and Ill sprawl like I did in the fight with Carla Esparza. Then I will submit her with her broken nose and her full-of-blood face. I want to go there and put on the best fight I have ever done in the UFC.That nonchalance is part of the reason Joanna Violence is gaining ground on Joanna Champion as Jedrzejczyks unofficial moniker. She has dismantled recent challengers with precise, merrciless kickboxing.ddddddddddddedrzejczyks significant strike advantage in her three title defenses each rank in the top four all-time among UFC championship fights. That includes the bout against Valerie Letourneau in which Jedrzejczyk set the record with a plus-117 disparity. For her UFC career, she has landed 4.04 more strikes per minute than her opponents. According to FightMetric, thats the second-best differential in UFC history behind?Cain Velasquez?(plus-4.14).Among current champions, only Jedrzejczyk (three) and Demetrious Johnson (nine) have active streaks longer than one title defense.The last few [UFC title] fights showed you must take this business so seriously, Jedrzejczyk said. In one night, in one second, in one round you can lose your dreams, your goals, your belt ... You cannot stop; you cannot stay in one place if you want to get better.My biggest goal is to retire as an undefeated UFC champion.Jedrzejczyk says thats part of the reason she switched her camp in late September to American Top Team in Coconut Creek, Florida, from her home gym, Berkut Arrachion Olsztyn, in Poland. Access to a greater breadth of top-tier coaches, training partners and nutritionists all made South Florida favorable to Central Europe.Jedrzejczyk also recognizes that more immediate access to American media and fans helps marketability as she strives to become one of the faces of the UFC.The appreciation is there -- the ovation she received at UFC 200 serves as evidence. With the difficult-to-define recipe for superstardom, familiarity could be the only missing ingredient for Jedrzejczyk to break into the mainstream.I am the UFC world champion, she said. Of course, Im still Polish. I want to live there. I will do my camps in Florida. I will do more media in the U.S., then I will fly back home for a few weeks. I want to be focused on my career here. I want to become even more international than I am right now. cheap falcons jerseys cheap ravens jerseys cheap bills jerseys cheap bears jerseys cheap bengals jerseys cheap cowboys jerseys cheap lions jerseys cheap texans jerseys cheap colts jerseys cheap jaguars jerseys cheap chiefs jerseys cheap rams jerseys cheap dolphins jerseys cheap vikings jerseys cheap saints jerseys cheap giants jerseys cheap jets jerseys cheap eagles jerseys cheap steelers jerseys cheap 49ers jerseys ' ' '
