RIO DE JANEIRO -- A second Kenyan track and field official was expelled from the Olympics on Thursday after he pretended to be one of the teams 800-meter runners at a doping test and gave a sample in the athletes name.The incident may have been the unintended result of the runner, Ferguson Rotich, giving the official his accreditation card so he could have a free breakfast in the athletes village.Still, the International Olympic Committee opened an investigation after John Anzrah was found with Rotichs Olympic accreditation, and provided the doping sample and signed doping forms in the name of Rotich, Kenyan team leader Stephen Arap Soi said.Anzrah, a former sprinter and now a track coach, was reported to authorities by doping control officers after the test, Arap Soi said.The problem with John Anzrah is he took possession of an identity card (accreditation) of an athlete who was in the list of WADA for out-of-competition dope testing, Arap Soi said. He was ... taken to the doping control station purportedly as Ferguson Rotich and subjected to produce the sample and he signed. The crime he has committed (is) against Team Kenya and that is why we are sending him back home.The International Olympic Commitee set up a disciplinary commission to look into the incident.We take note of the decision of the Kenyan Olympic Committee to send home its athletics coach following a violation of anti-doping rules and we thank the NOC for its swift action, the IOC said.The IAAF will seek information on the incident from the IOC and could launch its own investigation, governing body spokesman Yannis Nikolaou said in a statement emailed to The Associated Press.This is the second doping scandal to hit Kenyas track team at the Olympics, and comes with Kenyan athletics in the midst of a doping crisis and under severe scrutiny in Rio. The Kenyan team has been heavily tested for doping in the buildup to the Olympics because of years of problems in the country, a powerhouse in distance running.But this may have been a foolish mix-up.Rotich claimed he gave Anzrah his accreditation so that the coach could eat breakfast for free at the athletes village on Wednesday morning, said Rotichs agent, Marc Corstjens. Kenyan officials also said that Anzrah was found in the dining area of the athletes village before the test, apparently corroborating that.Corstjens said he didnt know what happened next, and why Anzrah didnt own up to the doping officers when he was asked to give a doping sample.Why didnt he tell them, `Hey guys, this isnt me? Corstjens said.After Anzrah was discovered, Rotich went to the doping test and gave both blood and urine samples, the agent said.While Anzrah was sent home by the Kenyan team, the IOC didnt say if there would be any repercussions for Rotich.Rotich finished fourth in the 800 at the world championships in Beijing last year. He is listed to compete in the heats of the mens 800 on Friday alongside teammate David Rudisha, the Olympic champion and world-record holder.Anzrah is a former Kenyan 200- and 400-meter runner and competed at the world championships in 1987. As the news broke, Kenyan deputy president William Ruto had just arrived in Rio to attend the Olympics. Kenyas sports minister is also in Brazil with the team.In the first doping scandal involving Kenya in Rio, its track and field team manager was sent home last weekend over allegations he sought a 10,000 pound ($13,000) bribe from undercover reporters to help athletes evade doping tests back in Kenya. Michael Rotich, who is no relation to Ferguson, was filmed seeking the bribes in Kenya in January and February, The Sunday Times newspaper reported.He was arrested when he arrived back in Kenya from the Olympics, is being held in custody, and is facing criminal charges.---Mutuota reported from Nairobi, Kenya.---AP Sports Writers Stephen Wilson and Raf Casert contributed to this report.

AUSTIN, Texas -- Shaka Smarts first season at Texas pumped new life into the Longhorns program. It also ended with another quick departure from the NCAA Tournament.For year two, the mission is to keep the Longhorns on the upward trend, and keep them playing much deeper in the postseason, even with no returning starters and seven newcomers to the lineup .Thats asking a lot in a league like the Big 12.It was a fun transition, and continues to be a transition because were certainly far from having our program all the way established to where we wanted it to be, Smart said. We lost a lot of guys. Had five seniors graduate, had a junior leave.Also gone are the exhausting early-season trips to China and the Bahamas that made it tough for Smart to build early consistency in his first season. But newly arrived on campus is 6-foot-11 forward Jarrett Allen, an Austin product who spurned an offer from national powerhouse Kansas to stay close to home.Texas has been a regular in the NCAA Tournament, making it 16 of the last 17 years. Smart was hired in large part because the problem was getting past the first weekend, which the Longhorns havent done since 2008.Smart has had his own postseason woes. Since leading Virginia Commonwealth to the Final Four in 2011, his teams havent made it past the tournaments opening weekend, including three straight first-round losses. Last season, Texas lost to Northern Iowa on a half-court shot at the buzzer.Some things to look for in Smarts second season at Texas:BIG THINGS FROM THE BIG MANMuch will be expected from Allen from the start. As one of the highest-rated recruits in the country, hell be asked not just to score but help patch up an interior defense thhat lost Prince Ibeh, last seasons Big 12 defensive player of the year.dddddddddddd Hes going to make a big impact right away. Were going to play him at multiple positions, Smart said.FREQUENT FLIER MILESTexas wont rack up as many of those. Unlike last seasons globe-trotting schedule that had the Longhorns jet-lagged for a month, the longest out-of-conference trips this team will make include New York for a Thanksgiving week tournament and a December trip to Michigan. They should be well rested for the start of Big 12 play.GO-TO GUARDTexas needs a go-to ball handler and passer after Isaiah Taylor turned pro after last season. That looks like it could be sophomore Kerwin Roach, whose athleticism produced some rim-rattling dunks last season. But Smart plans to get the ball in a lot of hands. Defenses knew everything ran through Taylor last season.I think its definitely a more versatile group, Smart said. Were going to have to play point guard by committee, and that will be interesting to follow.BIG SHOT DAVISWhoever becomes the distributor, guard Eric Davis will get a lot of looks. He started just two games last season but made 42 3-pointers, shooting 38 percent and returns as the Longhorns top outside threat.YOUTH MOVEMENTSmarts first team was dominated by seniors. It will be freshmen and sophomores leading the way this time. Of all the players who attended preseason Big 12 media days, Roach and Davis were the only sophomores. Other freshmen who will be expected to contribute immediately will be guards Andrew Jones and Jacob Young and forward James Banks.
