RIO DE JANEIRO -- A brush fire caused light ash to fall on the playing surface of the Olympic field hockey venue Monday, and officials are monitoring the nearby mountain bike competition site for problems there.The womens field hockey quarterfinal between Britain and Spain started on time and was not affected as the wind quickly blew away any ash that might have made it on the surface.The fire started in the afternoon when temperatures at Deodoro Olympic Park reached 97 degrees Fahrenheit (36 Celsius), and a 26 mph wind picked up. The fire occurred near X-Park, the venue for canoe slalom, BMX, and mountain bike. The scorching temperatures later gave way to torrential rain in Rio that caused a delay at the track and field venue.High winds rattled and shook the media workroom tent on the site and blew smoke and ash into the area. Germany and the United States had finished playing about an hour before the problem became noticeable.The International Cycling Union says it will check on Tuesday for any potential impact on the mountain bike course.Practice on the mountain bike course begins Wednesday. The womens race will be held Saturday, with the mens race on Sunday. Melvin Gordon III Youth Jersey . Rinne played two periods in his first game since left hip surgery in early May.

Nasir Adderley Womens Jersey .J. -- Marty Brodeur beat the Pittsburgh Penguins yet again. Houston climbed to No. 6 in the rankings and the Cougars are leaving tracks based on two of the most significant wins ever for the American Athletic Conference powerhouse.The Cougars took down Florida State to end the 2015 season and kicked off 2016 in style, upsetting third-ranked Oklahoma at NRG Stadium with an echo that rattled the national rankings, propelling UH from No. 15 to sixth.Of course, Houston coach Tom Herman was willing to celebrate only after identifying the many areas he wants the Cougars to improve entering Saturdays game (Noon ET) against Lamar.We had some coverage busts in the secondary, Herman said. Then at the four-minute mark we were about to go up 40-17 on the No. 3 team in the country and we fumbled the ball going into the dang end zone and put our defense back out on the field. Thats obviously very unacceptable.Houston came out of the massive win over the Sooners a little worse for wear in the backfield. Quarterback Greg Ward Jr. required an MRI exam on his sore shoulder but was expected to participate in practice after Herman said theres nothing structural, just some soft tissue stuff. Ward lost the fumble Herman bemoaned but otherwise played with precision in orchestrated the upset.Ward had 321 passing yards and two touchdowns in the opener.From last year to this year, its like night and day, Herman said.Though a short week awaits Houston with a Thursday night meeting against Cincinnati in the AAC opener next week, complacency is likely to be squashed by the energetic Cougars staff this week. Expectations are sky high and only rising for Hermans club, which is 15-1 since he came to town from Ohio State.The culture that is ingrained in this program will not allow it, Herman said. I think these guys know that if coach McKnight or any of ourr assistants for one minute think that there is complacency or the foot is being let off the gas, theyre going to get smacked in the face with the proverbial shovel and reminded of what our culture demands of them.ddddddddddddOf course, Lamar is not Oklahoma. It will not bring a national television audience or months and weeks of massive hype. This is not a statement game on the surface, but Herman wants to ensure it is just that.The Lamar football program returned in 2010 after a hiatus and had 31 wins in six seasons as a Southland Conference member.That might not generate a buzz on Houstons campus this week but hes hopeful TEDCU Stadium will be a popular place Saturday and going forward.If we fashion ourselves to be a big time football program, like the big time programs in the country, it does not matter what the opponent is or what is on their jersey, Herman said. Their fans, students and alumni come and support and watch their team play.Along with Ward, running back Duke Catalon (ankle) is expected to be in the lineup against Lamar.He finished up the game, we expect him back, Herman said.Lamars offense is not without impact players.Senior running back Kade Harrington was the runner up for the STATS FCS National Offensive Player of the Year award in 2015. He became the seventh player in Division I history to rush for 2,000-plus yards in 10 games and set all sorts of program marks. Harrington ended the 2015 regular season as the nations leader in rushing yards (2,092), rush yards per game (190.2), all-purpose yards (213.4), rushing touchdowns (21) and was second nationally in scoring (12.5 per game) and third in yards per carry (7.86).
