RIO DE JANEIRO -- The Olympic pool has a new king of speed.And, get this, its an Australian.Kyle Chalmers, 18, dethroned defending champion Nathan Adrian in the final of the 100-meter freestyle Wednesday night, taking that title Down Under for the first time in 48 years.In a furious down-and-back sprint, Chalmers rallied on the return lap to win with a time of 47.58 seconds. Pieter Timmers of Belgium claimed the silver in 47.80, and Adrian took the bronze in 47.85.I feel great about getting another medal, said Adrian, who barely advanced out of the preliminaries but nearly pulled off the first back-to-back titles in the 100 since Pieter van den Hoogenband in 2000 and 2004. It would be great to have gold, but in this day and age the 100 freestyle is maybe the most fickle event out there. I am so proud to be a medalist for two Olympiads.For Australia, known more for its distance freestylers, Chalmers became the countrys first 100 free champion since Michael Wenden at Mexico City in 1968.He is also the youngest Olympic gold medalist in that event since 17-year-old Jorg Woithe of East Germany at the 1980 Moscow Games.Information from The Associated Press was used in this report.?

Ken Dryden Canadiens Jersey . -- The Bishops Gaiters are showing they belong among the countrys top varsity football teams. NFL touchback numbers dropped in the first week of the 2016 preseason despite an offseason rule change that marks them at the 25-yard line instead of the 20.According to NFL.com numbers, 29 percent of Week 1 kickoffs (42 of 142) were downed in the end zone for a touchback. Thats well below the leagues rate of 56 percent during the 2015 regular season.More kickoffs tend to be returned in the preseason, when a big return can boost players chances of making the team. But the 2015 preseason rate of touchbacks was 43.4 percent, still notably higher than what the league produced in the first week of the 2016 preseason.Although it is a small sample size, the rate decrease is consistent with what NFL coaches have said about the rule change during training camp.The league is attemmpting to reduce returns for safety purposes, hoping that better field position will incentivize more teams to take touchbacks.dddddddddddd Coaches have said they will experiment this summer with pop-up kicks that drop short of the goal line, thus forcing a return and achieving the opposite effect of the rule change.NFL officials have said they will study the full-season impact of the new touchback rule before deciding whether to abandon or tweak it in the offseason.During a conference call with league executives last spring, special teams coaches advocated a new, mandatory formation that would convert the kickoff into a play closer to a punt.
