BOSTON -- Blood, sweat and tears stained the deadly 2013 Boston Marathon, so the next years running of Americas most famous footrace was understandably all about redemption.Now the rightful winner of the 2014 womens race -- Buzunesh Deba -- is finally getting her due.Race organizers formally declared the 29-year-old Ethiopian the 2014 champion on Monday, two months after Kenyan rival Rita Jeptoo was stripped of the title and banned from international competition for four years for doping.Sweetening the bitterness of her ordeal, Deba also was recognized as the current course record-holder. Her blistering finish of 2 hours, 19 minutes, 59 seconds made it the fastest womens race in Bostons 121-year-old history, besting the previous mark of 2:20:43 set in 2002 by Margaret Okayo of Kenya.I feel great and really happy being named the 2014 Boston Marathon champion, the most prestigious marathon in the world, and I encourage all concerned stakeholders to work on a clean sport, Deba, who lives in New York City with her husband and coach, Worku Beyi, said in a statement.It was a long road to victory for Deba.Her 2014 clocking in Boston was her fastest ever over the 26.2-mile span, and it catapulted her to the top of the sport.But at the time, all the adulation -- to say nothing of the first-prize winnings -- went to Jeptoo, who was credited with the win in the first edition of the Boston Marathon since two bombs planted at the finish line killed three spectators and wounded more than 260 others.The Boston Athletic Association, which organizes the marathon, says its still working to recover the $150,000 prize and $25,000 course record bonus.Were exploring our legal options and will take whatever steps are reasonable and necessary, BAA spokesman T.K. Skenderian said.In October, the Court of Arbitration for Sport doubled Jeptoos initial ban to four years. The 35-year-old tested positive for EPO in a September 2014 sample given during training for the Chicago Marathon. Shes since been stripped of the 2014 Chicago title as well.Buzunesh Debas sub-2:20 performance in 2014 was a magnificent achievement, BAA chief executive Tom Grilk said Monday. To emerge victorious in the fastest womens race ever run in Boston was remarkable. We look forward to awarding her the praise she rightfully deserves in 2017.Deba hasnt yet said whether shell race Boston next year. Johnny Unitas Jersey .

The quest begins with what is supposed to be an easy one, although Germany has traditionally been a stubborn opponent to Canadian teams at international tournaments. Its been more than 15 months since the most-recent AFL clash between Fremantle and Geelong and a great deal has changed at both clubs.The Dockers 44-point triumph over the Cats at Simonds Stadium was the second in what would become a club-record nine straight victories to start a triumphant home and away campaign, culminating in a first minor premiership.In contrast, Fremantle have won only three of 15 matches this season to sit a lowly 16th on the ladder.The sixth-placed Cats turned over a quarter of their list in the off-season, which coach Chris Scott cites as a factor in their inconsistency, including three losses this year to teams ranked outside the top eight.Cat-turned-Giant Steve JJohnson and feisty Fremantle forward Hayden Ballantyne were regular protagonists in several spiteful contests between the two clubs in years gone by and Scott has not ruled out the prospect of another edgy encounter when they square off at Domain Stadium on Friday night.ddddddddddddMaybe, but Im not a big believer in going back a long time to get a form-line on a game, said the Cats coach.We last played them in round two, 2015 and both of our situations have changed enormously. ...
