ERST LESEN! » Saturday. Webb rushed for 110 yar

Australian Dani Samuels has powered into her third consecutive Olympic discus final, first convincing Rio officials to delay her rain-interrupted qualifying round before holding her nerve for a big last throw.Samuels has put herself in strong medal contention after hurling 64.46 metres to qualify fourth overall for Tuesdays (early Wednesday AEST) final.It wasnt always looking that way in a challenging session that tested every inch of the veterans experience.Heavy rain played havoc with the early stages, turning torrential just as Samuels stepped up and causing her to release a wet discus straight into the cage.The 28-year-old is no stranger to slippery conditions, having become the youngest world champion of all time under showers in Berlin in 2009.But in my head I thought `this is a bit too heavy, because by the time you wind up the discus gets wet, Samuels said.I did say to them `this is insane, its too heavy, we need to delay it.They said, `alright, well go in the tunnel.I think I gave them a nudge in the right direction as to what everybody was thinking.Back out on the field half an hour later, doubts started to creep in.A second attempt short of the 62m automatic qualifying mark didnt help.But the triple Olympian nailed her final throw to finish second in qualifying Group A behind defending Olympic gold medallist Sandra Perkovic from Croatia.I just had to go for it, back that aggression I usually throw with and try and nail it smack bang in the centre, Samuels said. It was take a risk or go home and dont come back.The eventual finish time gave the 2014 Commonwealth Games gold medallist all of 14 hours to back up for a final scheduled the very next morning.It was more than that afforded to Group B, who eventually wrapped up under clear skies at around 11pm.For me its rest, recovery, eat, sleep and get back here in one piece tomorrow morning ready to go, Samuels said.

LEXINGTON, Ky. -- Kentucky looks to get even on many fronts against Vanderbilt.The Wildcats (2-3, 1-2 Southeastern Conference) get another crack at reaching .500 and aim to finish the deal on Saturday against the Commodores (2-3, 0-2 SEC) after missing opportunities to do so last November in Nashville. That 21-17 loss -- in which Vanderbilt made two goal-line defensive stands and scored a trick-play touchdown -- was one of six defeats in seven contests down the stretch that cost Kentucky a chance to become bowl eligible.Wildcats coach Mark Stoops acknowledged Monday that the defeat would bother him for the rest of his life but quickly added that this is a new season. Getting halfway toward a postseason berth could help lessen some bad memories.That game last year really hurt the team a lot, Kentucky defensive end/linebacker Denzil Ware said. We really want this win.Meanwhile, Vanderbilt seeks its first SEC win.The Commodores had their chances last week against then-No. 23 Florida, outgaining the Gators 265-236. But two turnovers and two sacks culminated in a 13-6 loss, their latest in a recent string of close defeats against Florida.Narrow losses have been the story for Vandy in SEC play this season, a trend the Commodores hope to end against Kentucky and provide their first league road win since 2013.It just lets us know that were there, Vanderbilt coach Derek Mason said of his team, which has lost by nine combined points. This team hasnt been jaded at all. ... I believe that this group fully expects to play well this weekend.---Other things to watch as Vanderbilt and Kentucky look to get into the win column:DEFENSIVE PROGRESS: Despite yielding 488 yards in last weeks 34-6 loss at No. 1 Alabama, Kentucky took heart in holding the Crimson Tide to a season-low in points (a fumble was returned for one score) and keeping an opponent below 500 yards for a second straight gamme.dddddddddddd. Though the Wildcats still rank last in the SEC at 468 yards allowed per game, defensive coordinator D.J. Eliot saw hope in making the nations top team work harder than expected. The more pressure situations you can put them in, the better theyll perform, he said.RUNNING BACK MATCHUP: The game pits two of the SECs top-five rushers in Vanderbilt junior Ralph Webb -- whose 582 yards lead the conference -- and Kentuckys Stanley Boom Williams (486). Both backs broke 100 yards last year in Nashville and figure to play key roles again on Saturday. Webb rushed for 110 yards against Florida, while Williams seeks to rebound from running nine times for just 22 yards at Alabama.BALL PROTECTION: Kentuckys minus-7 turnover margin ranks last in the SEC and last weeks loss typified the Wildcats struggles. Quarterback Stephen Johnson fumbled three times while being sacked and lost two of them, with Alabama returning one 55 yards for a touchdown. Stoops believes that Johnson will bounce back and put ball-security issues behind him, which is necessary against a Vandy squad thats plus-3 with six fumble recoveries.VISORED UP: Vanderbilt quarterback Kyle Shurmur will wear a shield on his helmet after being poked in the right eye in last weeks loss to Florida. Shurmur, whose eye remained red Tuesday, tried to argue his way back onto the field against the Gators. Shurmur has thrown for 696 yards with three TDs and three interceptions this season. His sight is good, just for protective purposes were putting a shield on him just so it doesnt happen again, Mason said.---AP College Football: collegefootball.ap.org---Follow Gary B.
