RIO DE JANEIRO -- Kami Craig felt sorry for Maddie Musselman. She was sure Musselman would be bored while rooming with her on a trip to China with the U.S. womens water polo team.Then she noticed something about the precocious teenager.Just her attention to detail, the 29-year-old Craig said. Shes incredibly organized. I watched her how she unpacked her bag and set things out. ... The way that she handles herself so professionally.Well beyond her years.Musselman, who turned 18 in June, went from long shot for the 2016 Olympics to key contributor for an athletic American squad favored to win a second straight gold medal. Oh, and she managed to graduate from high school along the way, taking online classes between grueling training sessions in Southern California.Before she starts at UCLA in the fall, she strides onto the Olympic stage beginning with Tuesdays opener against Spain.Just to be able to get the experience, to get the opportunity to play at this level has been definitely eye-opening, Musselman said Sunday after practice at the Flamengo Club. Ive learned countless things, countless lessons in the pool and out of the pool, and its just been amazing.Musselman is coming off an impressive scoring spree against Russia, collecting 12 goals as the U.S. swept the three-game series to run its win streak to 16 since a 5-4 loss to Australia on May 31. The 5-foot-11 attacker scored 13 times when the U.S. went 8-0 on its way to the title at an Olympic qualification tournament in the Netherlands in March.Im so excited for her to be here and have the opportunity to compete because shes a really special player, Craig said. Shes fast. Shes got great legs. Shes got an awesome shot and at such young age to have the confidence and step up in the moments that she does is pretty incredible.Musselman, the middle of three daughters for former major league pitcher Jeff Musselman and his wife, Karen, was a swimmer growing up in California and also played soccer. But once she played water polo, she was hooked. Her sister, Alex, also was into the sport and went on to play for UCLA, adding to the draw.Obviously you want to follow your older sister, a grinning Musselman said, so I was like Ill play water polo, and I fell in love with it.While Jeff Musselman credits Maddies teachers in school for her studious, meticulous approach, Maddie herself said her father plays a key role in her success in water polo.The 53-year-old Musselman was selected by Toronto in the sixth round of the 1985 draft out of Harvard. He made his major league debut with the Blue Jays in September 1986 and went 23-15 with a 4.31 ERA in five years in the majors.When we were going through all (these) different sports trying to find what we love, he was right there with us, saying `Oh, Ive been there, I know what youre experiencing, Maddie Musselman said, and he provided just lessons that we wanted to learn, and just gave us that confidence that you know you might not be good at every single sport, its just finding what you love and playing it.Jeff Musselman said he knows very little about water polo, but compares Maddies situation to joining Toronto when he was 23. Not only was it his first time in the majors, but he made it to the Blue Jays during a successful period for the franchise. He had his best season when Toronto went 96-66 in 1987, going 12-5 with a 4.15 ERA in 68 games.Being around that, I think was very helpful to be able to share my experience, said Musselman, who works for sports agent Scott Boras. You know its the same game, just more people watching.A lot more people in the Olympics, but the U.S. is confident Musselman will rise to the occasion.Her tenacity and her competitiveness is something that we all love to see in practice and compete against in practice, U.S. captain Maggie Steffens said, but we are darn happy to have it on our side when were in competition.---Jay Cohen can be reached at http://www.twitter.com/jcohenap Mens Adidas Ultra Boost 2018 . -- Playing time has been limited for Maxim Tissot this season, so the Montreal Impact defender made the most of his first scoring opportunity on Saturday. Wholesale Adidas Ultra Boost 2018 . Peter Holland and Brad Staubitz were sent to Toronto on Saturday as the Maple Leafs traded defenceman Jesse Blacker and draft picks to the Anaheim Ducks. http://www.cheapultraboostfreeshipping.com/ .

Wholesale Ultra Boost 2018 . LOUIS -- St. METAIRIE, La. -- The New Orleans Saints kicker carousel is still going strong.The Saints have moved on to their 11th kicker in 11 years under coach Sean Payton after signing undrafted rookie Wil Lutz on Tuesday -- as announced on social media by both Lutz and his agent, John Perla.The plan is for Lutz to replace veteran Kai Forbath, who was released by the Saints on Tuesday.The Saints also released veteran cornerback Cortland Finnegan, who joined the team midway through training camp. To replace him, the Saints signed veteran cornerback Sterling Moore, according to his agent, Andy Simms.Moore started nine games for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last year and previously played for the Dallas Cowboys and New England Patriots. He spent this summer with the Buffalo Bills before being released. He replaces Finnegan as the most experienced veteran by far among a young group of cornerbacks.Lutz spent the summer with the Baltimore Ravens after serving as both a kicker and punter at Georgia State.Lutz made 2 of 3 field goal attempts during the preseason with the Ravens (the miss coming from 53 yards). He made just 31 of 46 field goal attempts in college, though eight of those misses camee from beyond 48 yards.dddddddddddd He was 23-of-27 from inside the 40-yard line and finished as Georgia States all-time leader in field goals, PATs (120), points (213) and games played (47).Lutz originally agreed to join the Saints practice squad Monday after a tryout. But then the Saints reversed course and decided to sign him to their active 53-man roster instead.?The Saints have tried a little bit of everything at kicker during the Payton era. This year, they had three veterans on the roster -- Forbath, Connor Barth and Josh Scobee (who was released before OTAs began).Last year, the Saints tried two unproven young kickers throughout the summer -- Zach Hocker and Dustin Hopkins. They wound up keeping Hocker, only to replace him with Forbath weeks later. Hopkins, meanwhile, went on to thrive with the Washington Redskins.Since 2006, New Orleans has now burned through John Carney (three times), Billy Cundiff, Olindo Mare, Martin Gramatica, Taylor Mehlhaff, Garrett Hartley (also on-again, off-again), John Kasay, Shayne Graham, Hocker and Forbath.
