s didnt come naturally to the Gulf Coast native. So Snyder stayed locked in on his numbers Sunday morning, counting each stroke Antworten

HONOLULU -- There were no signs of jet lag for No. 24 Boise State on Saturday.Behind the play of sophomore quarterback Brett Rypien, the Broncos (9-1, 8-1 Mountain West, No. 22 CFP) scored early and often on their way to a 52-16 rout of host Hawaii.Rypien threw for 338 yards and four touchdowns as Boise State racked up a season-high 603 yards of total offense, 403 of them coming before halftime.The Broncos jumped out to a commanding 28-0 lead early in the second quarter and went on to score touchdowns on six of their first seven possessions.I think were clicking a lot better than we have all year and you want to be playing your best football coming into the end of the year and I think were doing that, said Rypien, who completed 18 of his 22 pass attempts before taking a seat for the final quarter.Boise State coach Bryan Harsin credited his teams week of preparation ahead of its longest road trip of the season.Overall, just the way that the coaches and the players prepared themselves for Hawaii, I was very excited about that, and I think thats got to carry over into these next two games that we play because its all about the process for us, Harsin said.Rypien threw touchdown passes of 35 yards to Thomas Sperbeck and 6 yards to Alec Dhaenens in the first half and added scoring strikes of 35 yards to Cedric Wilson and 44 yards to Sperbeck in the second. He also ran in a touchdown from four yards out to send the Broncos into halftime with a 35-3 lead.I think we had a good plan coming in and I think we had a great week of practice and that helped a lot, said Rypien. We just came out and started fast, like we usually do, but the big thing for us was to play a good four quarters -- well for the starters, three quarters tonight -- but I thought we fought hard every single play.Boise State entered the game ranked 18th nationally in red zone offense and continued that trend Saturday, finding the end zone on all four of its trips inside the 20.Jeremy Nichols, the nations leading scorer, ran for 153 yards on 16 carries and scored on runs of 36 and 5 yards. Wilson had game highs of seven receptions and 141 yards and Sperbeck, the schools all-time leader in receiving yardage, added five grabs for 114 yards.In addition to its offensive success, Boise State managed two defensive takeaways for the first time this season.Paul Harris ran for 145 yards and Rigoberto Sanchez made field goals of 24, 32 and 35 yards for the Rainbow Warriors (4-7, 3-4).THE TAKEAWAYBoise State: Wyomings wild 69-66 triple-overtime loss to UNLV Saturday keeps the door open for the Broncos to sneak into the Mountain West championship game. Boise State needs New Mexico to win out and beat Wyoming on Nov. 26 to create a potential three-way tie in the Mountain Division. The tiebreaker would be determined by the team ranked highest in the College Football Playoff rankings at the end of the regular season.Hawaii: The Rainbow Warriors chances of a bowl game are bleak, but not completely dead. They needed to win their final three games to finish above .500, but there is still a possibility they could be invited to the Hawaii Bowl with a 6-7 record.Weve had about a month here where we havent had a lot of positives and we better figure it out heading into the last two games, Hawaii coach Nick Rolovich said.KEY NUMBERSBoise State: The Broncos entered the game ranked 118th (of 128 FBS teams) in turnover margin, but won the turnover battle Saturday. Safety Chanceller James had an interception in the second quarter and linebacker Joe Martarano forced a fumble in the third quarter that was recovered by teammate Durrant Miles. They did not turn over the ball on offense.Hawaii: The Rainbow Warriors managed just three first downs in the first half. They posted 200 of their 359 yards of total offense -- and 12 first downs -- after halftime.UP NEXTBoise State: The Broncos will face another West Division team when they host UNLV. The Broncos have gone 101-6 at home since 2000.Hawaii: The Rainbow Warriors make their final road trip of the season to take on Fresno State. They are 13-7-1 in games there, including losses in their last two trips.---More AP college football at http://collegefootball.ap.org Andrew Cashner Jersey . The judges scored it 48-47, 48-47, 49-46 for Jones (19-1). It was the champions closest call.

Ferguson Jenkins Jersey . Inter president Erick Thohir says in a club statement on Wednesday that Vidic is "one of the worlds best defenders and his qualities, international pedigree, and charisma will be an asset. One, two, three, four ...Brad Snyder managed to block out every next thought, every painful memory, every unwritten plan, and remain focused on the revolving numbers in his head.24, 25, 26, 27 ...With every long, powerful stroke -- the thrusts he learned as a child growing up in Florida, polished as captain of the Naval Academys swim team, and brought back to life while winning five gold medals at the last two Paralympics -- Snyder kept his mind concentrated on pulling his body to a shoreline hed never see.56, 57, 58, 59 ...Even before losing his eyesight in a roadside bombing in Afghanistan six years ago, swimming in chilly ocean temperatures didnt come naturally to the Gulf Coast native. So Snyder stayed locked in on his numbers Sunday morning, counting each stroke as he churned through the treacherous 2.1 miles from Alcatraz Island to a sandy beach just east of the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco.79, 80 -- one, two ...Since going blind, Snyder has learned that it usually takes about 40 strokes to swim from one end of a 50-meter pool to the other, so he did his math and concluded the swim from Alcatraz to Crissy Field would require approximately 30 sets of 80 strokes. When he heard a mile remained in Sundays swim, he figured he needed another 15 sets of 80.So he began counting.I break things up like that in my mind, just so I can have a perception of progress, he said.Snyders successful completion of Sundays swim is the latest sign of progress for the 32-year-old former Navy seaman.An explosive ordnance disposal officer on his second tour of duty, Snyder had his life altered Sept. 7, 2011, when he ran to the aid of some locals who had been severely injured by an improvised explosive device and Snyder stepped on another IED concealed nearby.Remarkably, his injuries were mostly confined to his facial area, but he lost sight in both eyes. Snyder spent 60 hours in a medically induced coma before awakening to a world of permanent darkness.He continued his recovery at a veterans hospital in Tampa, Florida, where he also began relearning lifes basic functions, tasks previously as routine as putting the right amount of toothpaste on his brush.His rehabilitation also took him back to the water, where he quickly discovered his injuries didnt prevent him from swimming -- just safely navigating through a pool. Four months after his injury, Snyder was recruited for the Paralympics, an event he never knew existed before he lost his eyesight.Never unwilling to test his limits, Snyder decided to give the event a try. One year to the day after his injury, he won the second of his two gold medals in London. He also won a silver there.He returned to the Paralympics this summer in Rio de Janeiro and took home three more golds plus a silver, and he broke a 30-year-old record in the 100 freestyle in his visually impaired class.When asked to participate in the Alcatraz Swim for Sight, which benefits the support foundation of the UC San Francisco Ophthalmology Department, Snyder immediately knew his involvement would be a great way to help the cause while also testing his swimming abilities in a different way.He spent a restful Saturday night in Fishermans Wharf and then joined about 100 others on a half-dozen boats that took them to the edge of Allcatraz, a maximum-security federal prison from 1933-63 that is now a tourist attraction.dddddddddddd The rock island was considered an ideal penal location because the cold temperatures of the San Francisco Bay, powerful currents and distance from the mainland made it nearly impossible for prisoners to escape.Slipping into his wet suit, climbing aboard a military-style Zodiac boat, and feeling the saltwater mist spray over the bow and onto his face reminded Snyder of his days performing dive operations for the Navy.It made me feel kind of grounded to my past, he said. It allowed me to have some fun with it.Guiding him through the swim was Jill Dahle, whose sister was treated for a rare eye disease at UCSF when she was a child, and lead swimmer Bryn Lewis. Snyder and Dahle knew each other professionally but had never swum together.While waiting on the pier for a boat to take them to Alcatraz, Snyder showed Dahle the 3-foot bungee cord that would tether them together side by side. They briefly discussed the basics of their buddy system and then followed their instincts in the water.Brad is a beautiful swimmer, Dahle said. I breathe to my right, so I saw him every stroke. It felt very harmonious several times as we were taking strokes at the exact same time. ... Just being able to see that, I felt fortunate.Snyder had dipped his toes in the water prior to diving in but was still relieved by the 60-degree ocean temperatures. He had been told to expect conditions closer to the mid-40s.That wasnt all that was optimal on Sunday for open-water swimming. The sun was shining on their backs, the currents were mild, no obstacles (such as floating kelp) arose, and the only marine life in the area was a small group of sea lions lounging on the buoys. (Great white sharks have been spotted near Alcatraz.)A really unique case in which all of the conditions were in our favor, Snyder said.The most jostling Snyder felt was about a half-mile before the finish, but even those swells were more annoyance than hindrance. When they were a few hundred yards from the beach, Dahle gave Snyder a tap on the shoulder. Snyder initially thought she was letting him know theyd finished, but he quickly realized a short distance still remained.That was perfectly OK with Snyder.It really didnt feel that long. It felt like 20 minutes, he said by phone after completing the swim in just under an hour. Thats kind of indicative of it being an enjoyable time.Snyder said hes ready to take a step back now that the open-water swim is concluded. He has done a triathlon in the past but isnt sure if thats something he wants to pursue full time. The next Paralympics are still four years away.I dont know whats next on the horizon, he said. I really want to take some time off to allow my mind to not be thinking about Rio, or what event I have to do, or all these other things. ... Id love to enjoy some spare time, let my mind wander, let me ask those difficult questions. Who am I? Who do I want to be, and what do I want my contributions to society to be? Is it to remain in sports? I definitely think changing it up will be fun.Let the next countdown begin.
